Checked out this pretty new Asian fusion restaurant that opened up in Aurora. It has kind of a classy feel but it's casual. Leilani has a pretty good variety of Chinese and Japanese inspired appetizers and entrees. Has some good drinks that go well with it basically. The food is high quality at pretty good prices. A lot of things to get here. It's not a very big menu but that makes it easier to choose obviously. This is Asian fusion so it's not like it's authentic but this is good for what it is though. A few things can get pricy but prices aren't that bad. The service is also great which helps. It's about $12 for the cheapest cocktails. They often have some rotating seasonal specials. It's about $15 for an entree. There's only a few that are vegetarian so that made it easy to pick something. I got the Truffle Shuffle, which is a maki roll. This has avocado, caramelized shallots, pickled daikon, and roasted shiitake mushrooms, and is topped with a tempura crunch with kimchi and wasabi. Full of flavor. This is a good choice if wanting light meals. For sure it's not authentic but it's not trying to be. It's a good mixture for American palates. There's a few things okay for vegans and vegetarians. read more

I originally came across this place a few weeks ago, but at the time I was with a large group and the wait time for dinner was a bit too long for our liking. I finally came back with a smaller group on a Friday afternoon and the place was pretty empty. Our server, Tariq, was the BEST! He did a great job introducing us to Leilani, offering menu suggestions, refilling drinks, etc. Everything on the menu sounded so good. I tried the chicken katsu sando. The Japanese milk bread was so fluffy and fresh, the chicken added a nice crunch, and the toppings were a nice punch of flavor. On the menu, it said it came with yam chips or edamame so I asked for edamame. I think there was some confusion though cause my sandwich came with chips and I was charged for a side of edamame. The edamame had a lot of flavor. I never thought I would write this in a review but I almost wish it was more bland. Edamame aside, this place is great! Service was some of the best experiences I've had, I loved the decor, and most importantly, the food was delicious! read more

I wanted to share photos of our food during our third visit to this restaurant. We were a party of seven (4 adults & 3 big kids), spent $433 including tax & a 20% automatic gratuity for groups of 6 or more. The kitchen & wait staff are known to be somewhat slow, even when there are only several patrons. This was still the case during our Sunday dinner visit. The timing of the food coming out one by one even the appetizers were slow & a bit off. I believe this is an area that needs attention from the management. But I must say that our interactions with the wait staff, although slow, were all pleasant. They were polite & accommodating, shoutout to Khalif. The plating/presentation was exceptional & the rich flavors of some of our favorite dishes remained consistent. Leilani is one of the best Asian Fusion restaurants in our area & we are excited on the dishes we have yet to try. read more

Omg!! If you have not visited this gem within the historic downtown Aurora area, get there quickly!! When you first approach the building, it seems as if you are walking up to a high rise apartment building with a restaurant below, it is!! The building aesthetics are attractive and appropriate for the area. Upon entering the building, the ambiance is a mixture of casual and classy. The decor selection is absolutely beautiful. The chairs are comfortable and well maintained. The tables are decorated and clean! Black tables collect dust quickly, but not in here! The tables were clean and well kept. The service matched the quality. The hostess stand is beautiful and flows well with the decor. It is not out of place at all. My husband and I were told that reservations are recommended on a Friday night, but they welcomed us to go downstairs to the second bar area. Its gorgeous. It's private and there is space for dancing. The bar manager, Mars was fantastic! He has studied his craft and made a brilliant French 75. The food was immaculate!! I have tasted authentic Philippine dishes before and Leilani nailed it!! The lumpia was fried to perfection and the Pancit had flavors that were mixed together perfectly!! I can't wait to come here again and bring my friends and family. Leilani Asian Fusion has found a regular customer in me! read more

Came to Aurora expecting to go to another restaurant but it was closed and came upon Leilani's. Happy that we did the food was wonderful and the place was so pretty inside . Good options on the menu , came during lunch so had lunch menu . Service was wonderful , our server was helpful with menu and courteous read more

Love this place, but they kind of messed up my birthday lunch by running out of "steak" for hibachi even though they have 14 different steak options on the menu and not offering to improvise for their inventory error. & they just said "sorry, we had hibachi Monday and you came in on first Friday would you like to do chicken or tofu instead or order a different dish." Then I asked if I could add a different steak and of course there is an up charge of literally OVER double the original price. So my lunch portion hibachi ended up being $43... $29 for the skirt steak and $14 for the rice and vegetables.... I really enjoyed the Ube creme brulee. My server April was very kind though & the ambiance is obviously phenomenal.... The manager was not very kind and made me feel like I was the issue when I just wanted steak as my protein. The soap in the bathroom is filled with water and basically empty. read more

I went here for a team dinner to sort of just unwind and have a great time to mingle after work. Wow, the interior of this place is absolutely gorgeous! The ambiance is just perfect to go as a group or to take that special someone. There's plenty of seating to go around and they even have a room on the bottom floor you can reserve! The service was excellent, probably the best I've ever experienced! Our waitress was very accommodating and knew a lot about the menu when we had questions. She even threw in some suggestions that we thought we might like and we took them! And they did not disappoint one bit! To start, we had some lumpia, dumplings, edamame, and scallops and wow, they were all so delicious! I probably could've eaten some of the appetizers by myself they were so good! The lumpia was just cooked to perfection, the dumplings and scallops were nice and plump, and the edamame's flavor was enhanced with what tasted like chili crisp/oil and I just couldn't stop myself from grabbing more! For dinner, one of my bosses and I decided to split the sashimi and two sushi rolls and they literally melt in your mouth! They were so fresh and delicious! The sushi was on the smaller side but they packed a lot of flavor! To end the night we got the ube bread pudding, the BEST dessert I've ever had! Warm and soft bread pudding combined with the cold ube was just utter perfection. I don't normally get desserts from restaurants but I'm making it my mission to order this every time I go here! read more

I've visited Lelani on two occasions. We are always greeted at the door a d the service is good. The food is fantastic! An Asian flair to the steaks and salmon, great sides and the black tea creme brulee is yummy! I am not a sushi fan, but friends report it is very good. It is fairly dark in the restaurant. I would prefer a little more light. I can't wait to see what the downstairs will be used for! read more

Had another fantastic family date night at Leilani, and they absolutely delivered on this second visit. Well done! We started with the Lumpia--still a must-have and consistently amazing. The Korean fried wings were phenomenal, and the beef Korean dumplings were another winner. These starters are all absolute hitters--don't miss them. The Hamachi Kinilaw wasn't my personal favorite, but my wife and daughter loved it. The drunken Scottish was another standout--highly recommend this dish as well. Daniel, our server, truly elevated the experience. He's well worth the "beloved" title--good job, sir! I enjoyed a Sapporo to go with the meal, but Daniel also surprised us with a special lychee shot that perfectly complemented everything. We also tried the Godzilla roll; while it wasn't my thing (not a fan of eel), it's a solid choice for those who enjoy it. To end the night, the ube bread pudding was the perfect sweet finish. Leilani continues to shine, and with service like Daniel's, they've earned another round of applause! read more

When I called the day before to make a reservation for 9 people for 5:45 I knew my chances were slim. However, the person who answered just greeted with a "hello?" And I had to ask "um is this Leilani?" He took my information and made the reservation but I was a little nervous. I felt like I had just talked to a cook in the back that didn't know what he was doing. So when I got there and the hostess seemed nervous and said let me see where we are going to seat you, I got panicked. However, it all worked out. Our server was very knowledgeable about the menu but very overwhelming. Took almost 10 minute to explain the menu to us. I wasn't impressed with my drink, The Sunset Sipper, way too heavy on the lychee. Appetizers were delicious! The shishito peppers, the edamame, the beef dumplings were all very flavorful and delicious! We also got the dragon roll which was very tasty! However, we only ordered 1 and another came by accident when our main food came. We were confused. The table shared it but we thought hey they made a mistake. No, we were charged for 2. I didn't say anything since we did eat it, but still server error for hearing 2. My friends loved their sushi rolls, the new salmon dish, the adobe fried rice, the green beans etc. However the Golden Wagyu fried rice was terrible. Extremely bland and lukewarm. I would not order it again. The adobe rice had so much more flavor! The noodle dish also very disappointing. The shrimp was not good, the noodles were lukewarm and not flavorful, the sausage had a very weird taste and texture. The menu has changed a lot and not necessarily for the better. They got rid of a great steak with chimchurri and potatoes and no the only steak is $75! No thanks! We shall see if I return. read more

The food here is so good that I went twice in one week! For an appetizer, we had the Korean chicken. How something can be so crispy and also sticky (in a good way) is beyond me. The sushi roles were fresh and interesting. The decor and overall vibe of the place is so trendy but also casual. For lunch I had one of the Japanese sandwiches on milk bread with homemade chips. Wow!! read more

The restaurant has a nice ambiance. The the food was average. The nigiri didn't feel fresh, the steak was fatty, the the adobo rice was slightly mushy. Finally it was quite strange that we had to ask for soy sauce for the nigiri, and ask for chopsticks. Then later we had to ask for forks. I've actually never asked a restaurant for utensils, quite strange. The food was also very expensive for average food! read more

We recently went to Leilani for lunch. The appetizers were by far the highlight of the meal. The lumpia was incredible. Definitely a must have if you're eating here. However, the rest of the food was fine. Nothing was bad, but it was not stellar AND it was pricey (even on the lunch menu). We got the orange chicken bowl and the adobo rice as our mains to share. The orange chicken was so dry and bland, you could tell they probably use breast meat instead of thigh meat. The adobo was fine, but honestly not worth the $16 or $18 price point. Our service was fine but it felt like it took wayyyy too long for us to get helped throughout the meal for us being the only patrons in the place. The lychee wasabi martini was somehow too bitter and too sweet and had no wasabi flavor. The inside of the place looked nice, however half the lights were still off when we sat down (1.5 hours after opening) All in all, it's fine. It was not worth $106 for the three people who ate there. read more

lovely jewel box of a restaurant within walking distance of the Paramount and Copley theatres. I made reservations for a sunday matinee...and I didn't need to. There were only a handful of tables occupied. Which is too bad. The atmosphere is lovely, the waitstaff was attentive and the food was delicious - and reasonably priced. A bento box of spicy tofu with multiple sides was only $15. The sushi box was $22. The only surprise was an order for green tea (with the only other person in the party ordering a coke) ended up being $12 for a teapot of it. That seemed a little pricey since it was unlikely any individual patron would finish it - and they didn't ask if it was for the table. But small distraction. We will definitely be back read more

Came here for lunch on a Saturday. The restaurant is so spacious and modern. For appetizers, we split the lumpia and calamari which were crunchy and tasty. For entrees, we got the Adobe fried rice and chicken teriyaki bento box. We really liked the adobe fried rice because it is much lighter than we thought it would be - not as salty as other fried rice would be. My favorite thing is the Ube bread pudding which was enough for two people. It was soft and dense and not too sweet. Can't wait to come try the rest of the menu! read more

Met a friend here before we went to see a show at the Paramount theater. Our reservations were for six and I felt that offered ample time for us to enjoy a leisurely dinner and see the show. Since we chatted way too long before ordering, we relied on Angela, our server to offer recommendations she gave us amazing recommendations and made sure the food all came out very fast and we were on our way by 7:45. Everything was amazing. The crispy spicy tuna wasn't too spicy, but it was very delicious.. The salmon was done perfectly, and it was presented very beautifully.. my friend enjoyed the miso soup. Angela also suggested a mock tail and we added a spirit to that everything was perfect. read more

Food was AMAZING, service was a joke honestly. I had secondhand embarrassment for the staff, clearly they were not trained well. All started with the hostess. We came for lunch last Saturday 8/31 with a reservation. Took 15 minutes to get seated; the hostess was just bopping around the floor. When she was finally "ready" to seat us (the table was open the entire time), she stood there until I saw it click on her face that SHE had to lead the way to show us to our table. When we were finally sat... this is where everything else starts going downhill re: service. I understand it's a new menu and servers are still trying to learn, fine, it's not that. I ordered the Miso Cauliflower, the server asked me twice to clarify, and I repeated. Guess what came out? Miso soup. The server looked confused and said I ordered the soup. GIRL. I said cauliflower twice... it seemed like she didn't even know the item existed at all. The staff delivering our food was an insane & laughable experience -- we were annoyed at first, but it ended up becoming such a joke to us. Not once, not twice, but FIVE TIMES staff ran food to us that we didn't even order. We also noticed a few times that they were delivering OUR order to the table next to us. I'm sorry -- do they not have table numbers??? Or did the server just not ring it up correctly?? Another issue. My mom ordered a side of rice and the staff said he'd go check, came back 10 min later to drop off another order, my mom asked about the side she ordered again and he just looked at her and laughed??? We never got it. My favorite part was staff giving us to-go containers with lids that didn't match :) I didn't notice until after we left, but someone in my party said he caught our server giving us dirty looks. Not sure what that's all about, but it's not our fault you ran 5 items out that weren't even ours? It felt like they were just auctioning off food? Did I mention it took 40 minutes to get the orders out? I've been in the industry as a bartender and server, short staffed and opening a new restaurant. I know how staff should be trained. Honestly I felt bad for them, seems like they were just picked off the street and thrown into the job. They were so friendly and have so much potential. There's no way majority of the staff are this incompetent; it all begins with management. If the food wasn't amazing as it was -- not to be cliche -- but I would give -5 stars if I could. read more

Edit: I'm going to add another incident that we found out on the night of 8/10 after we came home. That night, for a 5:45 reservation we found out the ribs were out. My husband's work colleagues dined in later that same evening - tell me why they were able to order and eat the ribs?! Not sure if it was miscommunication between the front of house and the cooks but that needs to be worked on. I'm being honest and there are several other reviews on Google to read as well, although very few - there were some of us that did not have the best experience one could have for the amount we spent $140+ ---- Have been patiently waiting for their opening in downtown Aurora after discovering Leilani Asian Fusion at Pacifica Square when they first had 'Little Leilani'. Husband and I enjoyed their food at that time so we knew a full restaurant would do well. Made reservations for a Saturday dinner and luckily we did because it was packed! I should have known since they recently had their soft opening...and that the opening weekend would be hectic. We arrived 15 minutes early and had to wait for other parties/tables, so we spent some time at the bar. I had high hopes for an outstanding experience, but it did not turn out that way. They were not prepared at all for their grand opening. First, they ran out of drinks and some popular food items we were looking forward to - were not available. Secondly, multiple times, the servers brought over food to us that we did not order...gladly I would take them if they offered and put it down on our table! It was just very disappointing. The Passion drink was alright and the Mai Thai wasn't that strong. We really had to change our meal around what was still available for that night so we got the below and shared: *Adobo Fried Rice - Really good and thankful we got this for a side to eat with our meat. (Asian IYKYK) *Hamachi Kinilaw - I loved this! Would recommend if you like sushi and it had a Filipino take on it with the coconut flavor. *Calamari - Out of all the dishes we ordered, this was the least favorite. Wasn't what I was expecting - had more rings than tentacles, the batter more soft/chewy than crispy, and could not taste the calamansi marinade. *Dragon's Breath - Their rolls are good for not being an actual restaurant that only specializes in sushi. That being said, I didn't come to Leilani's for sushi. However, it had a very nice presentation and I could tell the quality of fish is fresh. If they had ran out of more of the hot foods, we would have ordered more rolls. *Skirt Steak - Not bad as our main entree and choice of protein. The steak was cooked perfectly, very juicy and easy to eat. The meat wasn't tough at all. We asked for more of the Chimichurri sauce on the side and that elevated the dish! *Thai Tea Creme Brulee - Interesting take and while the creme brulee was fine, probably would not order again. The tapioca balls on top were overly done - too chewy and sticking together...not made very well and did not help at all to the taste of the creme brulee other than being a decoration. We commented on how Leilani's should just focus on dinner and not open for lunch to be better stocked on their menu items..as least for the first couple of weeks. That was our main issue, we specifically made reservations for dinner to try out the Korean Fried Wings, Pancit, NY Truffle Steak, Pulutan Ribs and we couldn't. They didn't even have any of the Hibachi plates. We might as well have just came during lunch! I think we'll come back after a couple months when things improve. read more

The food was outstanding! Skirt steak was so tender. The Korean chicken was crispy had so much flavour. The Matcha dessert was very very good. Beautiful place read more

Ambiance/Decor* Very welcoming and love the ambiance! Drinks* if I had to go back it would be the Temptation. Tried a sip of my brother's drink and it reminded me of an alcoholic version of the butter beer; cool refreshing but this one had a nice combo of butterscotch bourbon and chocolate. Appetizers* Chicken Wings, Lumpia Shanghai and Potstickers. They are all a must try however the Potstickers were the winner! Panfried and was informed the they ground their own beef filling. Get the Lumpia Shanghai and Korean style chicken wings as a compliment to the potstickers. Entree's* NY strip with Shitake Mash and Broccolini, Miso Seabass, Adobo Braised Pork Belly, Bulgogi Fried Rice. Well seasoned Ny Strip seared to a perfect medium with drizzle of truffle oil served with a Shitake purée and Broccolini. Simple yet excellent. The Abobo Braised Pork Belly was slow cooked to perfection resulting in the fat being rendered through the cooking process and the Miso SeaBass was melt in your mouth topped with the king oyster mushrooms. Dessert * Ube Bread Pudding. Crisp edges and soft warm marbled ube bread pudding with ube drizzle. Try the Matcha Topping Outstanding! Staff* All the staff are friendly and welcoming. The server Tariq and floor manager Aliya are the highlights of the restaurant with their attentiveness and customer service. The Chef's are top notch and gave excellent plating presentations! The restaurant owner checked in on us and was an absolute delight to talk to! All very positive in my book. I'll definitely go back to try other menu items! 5/5533 read more

Is a dirty martini a new cocktail?(rhetorical, of course)... 2 weeks in a row and no olive juice....and this week's kicker, they also didn't have the entree I ordered. There's too much competition, literally right next door to have a poor experience. Hey owners....take a window seat so you can watch your business walk by. I love the waitstaff; not their fault. read more

Loved this place. We were here for a BDay celebration for my Bro. He was happy and satisfied with all the food served . He was also a great cook so he said 2 thumbs up. I love that the food was meant for sharing as we were a big group.Service and Ambience was excellent.Will surely return and make sure its shared to all how wonderful this place is read more

The restaurant is beautifully decorated. Cool decor. Hostess was chatting up a member of the staff for a while before acknowledging us. Unfriendly and cool demeanor. After being seated, our waiter and the rest of the staff were friendly and worked in concert. The food we ate was delicious. Two appetizers, sushi, and drinks. Several things on the menu were not available. Keep in mind that we were there at the very beginning of the night. Having to scan a QR code for the menu should make real-time updates a snap. They also ran out of dishes and had to get creative for our soup bowls. Prices are pretty high for a night out. 180 for two ppl before tip. New restaurant with tons of potential but misses the mark for the area. Artsy and working class neighborhood needs more affordable options. Not a rave for me. read more

First of all, get a table early. My family and I fly by the seat of our pants, so we didn't plan ahead. They seated us in the bar area (we joined two cocktail tables together next to a sofa and brought some chairs). My family and I loved the comfort and casual setting. The spicy dishes have a respectable amount of heat without taking away their taste. We will be back! read more

We came here after a day at the Outlets and we were SO happy with our choice! The ambiance is so nice and relaxing. Great for a date night or a dinner with friends.

We made reservations for a post-theater dinner here on Valentine's weekend. The Paramount Theater is within an easy couple block walk. Leilani had a nice atmosphere, a little dark and romantic. Our waiter was very accommodating, answering questions and finding out information for us, but honestly he spoke very fast and spoke low, so kind of hard to understand. We asked for top recommendations and he pretty much rattled off most of the menu. His recommendations of appetizer walnut shrimp, pancit, broccoli and kale salad and some maki rolls were spot on. We enjoyed everything we had, and would go back. read more

Leilani Asian Fusion - Crème brûlée - Asian Fusion Near Me - Aurora, Illinois

Unfortunately, this restaurant has gone downhill. We've eaten there from day one. Each visit has been worse than the last. Our last experience will truly be our last. I have no intention of returning. We had the Pulutan Ribs. There was barely any meat and what little there was like shoe leather. The Dragon's Breath roll is mostly rice and no flavor. A side note. My wife has Parkinson's Disease and has a service dog. The hostesses at first refused to seat us because we had a dog. She was in full uniform. Had her vest and papers. In case you're unaware of Federal law, the Americans with Disabilities Act requires any public business to allow that same access to the entire business as someone without a disability. After I explained this to them and showed the law, as written they still refused. I asked to speak to the Mgr and without even leaving their post, they both said "we already did speak to her". After my insistence, they tried to seat us at tiny table right next to the door where other patrons were waiting for tables. When the server arrived, I requested AGAIN to speak to a Mgr. He then told me the Mgr. isn't in but the owner was, and he'd go get them. We waited. And waited...when he returned with our first glasses of water, I reminded him. He left, came back only to say that the owner was no longer there. I gave the server my phone # and asked that the owner call me and hear about our experience. That call never came. I don't expect every employee to know the law regarding ADA, but to lie to us about already speaking to a Mgr. that wasn't there...or at least willing or available to speak to a patron is unacceptable. We felt discriminated against. At the very least we were denied a booth table and seated in the absolute worst location in the restaurant. Summing up...it's a shame that this restaurant seems to have not properly trained staff and allowed the quality of the food to decline so much. read more

Oysters for $1.00 each on Thursday is the best value EVER! They are fresh and perfectly seasoned. The Miso soup is excellent! However, it is very difficult to eat with their soup ladle in their cylinder container. The bar is truly amazing and, probably, the best stocked one in Aurora. Just a word of caution; read the drink card carefully. Ask when Happy Hour is because the drink that you think is $8.00 will be $16.00 on your bill and they will just apologize that the card is hard to read/understand. The restaurant is larger and fancier than I expected but very nice. The music is too loud for a lunchtime crowd and they claimed they couldn't turn it down. We will, probably, try it again but for dinner next time. And we will pay attention to that drink menu. read more
