So they brought the machine for us to sign for our charge. It was already on the tip screen asking us for a % to include. It seemed really high for 2 drinks. We asked for itemized receipt and it showed they had already added 20 % (it was only 2 of us). They never told us they had added tip, asked for tip again (on top of tip) plus didn't show itemized receipt. Very unethical and slimy. 

Business response:

Thank you for your feedback, and we sincerely apologize for the confusion and frustration you experienced. We want to clarify that due to the high volume and extensive prep involved with this menu during busy times, we do apply a 20% automatic gratuity for parties of any size during the pop-up. Our servers are trained to inform guests when closing out the check, and any additional tip is not required beyond the automatic gratuity. To ensure transparency, we also have a sign posted at the host stand and on each side of the b... read more

I loved the Greenville location but I think I love this location even more! I like that it's near Klyde Warren and it just feels more city like. It's much more quiet compared to Greenville and feels less like a bar, which I like. The pizza and charcuterie board was really good. They change the drink menus based on the season and I think it's unique and fun. It's super cute inside and service is friendly and quick. Great spot for the girls and a date. Will be back! 

Business response:

Thank you so much for your amazing review! We’re thrilled to hear that you love our location near Klyde Warren Park and that it offers the perfect atmosphere for a more relaxed and city-like vibe. It’s great to know you enjoyed the pizza, charcuterie board, and seasonal drink menu—it’s always fun to mix things up! We’re so glad you found the service friendly and quick, and that the space was just right for both a girls' night and a date. We can’t wait to welcome you back for another great experience! See you soon! 😊

Decided to have a girls night out. Leelas has a pop up Xmas around the holidays and decided to check it out. The restaurant was decked out with Xmas in pink. Pizza was great a mix of spicy and cheese. The humus was very fresh. The food came out fairly quick as well since there is a time limit for the reservations. Drink all were good especially the golden rings. All the servers were wonderful and willing to help when we needed something. I would definitely go again to taste the other drinks they offer for Xmas. 

Business response:

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re so glad you and your friends had a great girls' night out and enjoyed our festive pink Christmas décor, the pizza, avocado hummus, and of course the Five Golden Rings cocktail! It’s great to hear that the service was on point and that everything came out quickly. We’re always thrilled to hear that our guests want to return to try more of our holiday drinks. We’d love to welcome you back anytime for more fun and festive flavors! Happy Holidays! 🎄✨

Love Leela's! They are decorated so cute for Christmas with pink accents! They have a wide holiday drink menu, but my friend and I opted for the mocktail, which was delicious and cute! We also got their tuna tostadas and the charcuterie board. Definitely recommend making a reservation! The only downside is that due to the reservations, they do try to have you leave by a certain time, so you might not be able to stay as long as you'd like. 

Business response:

Thank you so much for your kind review! We're so glad you enjoyed the festive décor, holiday mocktails, and the tuna tostadas & charcuterie board. It's wonderful to hear that you had a great time! Due to the high volume of guests during the pop-up, we do ask everyone to keep their visit to 90 minutes so that everyone has the opportunity to experience the holiday magic. We truly appreciate your understanding and hope to welcome you back soon! Happy Holidays!

I love to consider myself an avid Christmas bar connoisseur and so I was on a mission when Leela's opened their annual Christmas holiday pop ups! I decided to take my MIL and omg! The Uptown location is decked out in the perfectly pink Christmas decorations! It definitely made for a wonderful girls brunch to say the least! We did indulge in their holiday cocktail menu and to no surprise their drinks were phenomenal! We also decided to start with a small board with borsin and crackers and it was pleasantly good! We decided to... read more

Leela's Wine Bar has an incredible ambiance that screams feminism and exudes a fun, girly vibe--I absolutely loved it! The decor and atmosphere are perfect for a night out with the girls or daughters. I tried the espresso flight, which was intriguing, but unfortunately, two of the three drinks lacked flavor and didn't quite meet my expectations. Additionally, the lack of warm hospitality, a rigid 90-minute dinner timeframe, and the forced gratuity for parties of any size all took away from what could have been a stellar expe... read more

This is such a cute wine bar, and the drinks are so delicious. Our group tried a few different mixed drinks from their rotating seasonal menu, and all of them were great. The tuna tostadas were to die for, as was the hot honey half pizza! 

Business response:

We are utterly delighted to hear that you enjoyed our wine bar and drinks! The tuna tostadas and hot honey half pizza are definitely favorites.

There are a lot of positives I have to say, but I will start with the negative that left me and my friend confused. Our bills arrived and we realize they were $15-20 over the amount that we actually spent. Turns out there is an automatic gratuity added to EACH bill regardless of the size of the party because of the Christmas pop up the restaurant is having. Usually gratuity is added to large parties, however, it was just my friend and I (2 people). I will mention, I understand having a gratuity to cover the Christmas pop-up ... read more

Business response:

Hi Yelena, we take your feedback seriously. We apologize for the confusion with the gratuity added to your bill. We have signs posted at both sides of the bar and at the host stand. Our servers are instructed to tell the guests when closing them out. I will discuss with the staff to make it more clear to the guests. Please email us at leelasuptown@unco.com to rectify this. We appreciate your positive comments about the food coming out fast, drinks, and decor.
