Leunig's is one of the nicest dining experiences in Burlington. It has a vast farm to table menu that is sure to please everyone. It is diagonally across the street from my apartment. Reservations recommended. Amazing brunch spot and they offer a smaller prix fixe menu from 3-5 pm and at late night, in addition to lunch and dinner. Great bar and music scene at night. It is a Burlington institution!
