Lele Kitchen is a continuation of Lena Leskina’s beloved bakery and cafe, now expanding into upscale dining with a California farm-to-table and Eastern European twist. Chef Ulad Skoblia curates a menu that celebrates bold Slavic flavors — caviar, smoked fish, dill, and root vegetables — infused with California’s seasonal ingredients.

Nestled near the scenic Santa Cruz Mountains, our location inspires both our seasonal cuisine and wines. Advanced Sommelier Fedar Kamkou guides the wine program, highlighting Californian winemakers to pair perfectly with each dish. Our casual upscale atmosphere blends classy sophistication with a relaxed vibe, perfect for any occasion — whether it's a cozy dinner with friends or a special family night out. And yes, we’re kid-friendly, with special touches like a small children’s menu.

Whether you’re savoring oysters, clay pot-roasted rabbit, or treating yourself to our dessert at Lele Kitchen, you’ll experience the best of creative, chef-driven cuisine.

Lele Kitchen is an absolute gem that redefines the modern dining experience. From the moment you step in, you’re welcomed by a warm, inviting atmosphere that immediately sets the tone for a memorable meal. The staff is nothing short of exceptional—attentive, professional, and genuinely friendly. Their hospitality makes you feel like a cherished guest, and the excellent service adds a layer of comfort and ease to the entire experience. One of the most remarkable aspects of Lele Kitchen is how it masterfully incorporates subtle notes of Russian and Ukrainian cuisine into its contemporary menu. This fusion feels effortless and natural, offering flavors that are both nostalgic and innovative. The result is a culinary experience that feels unique yet universally appealing. The food is absolutely incredible. Every dish is a testament to the chef’s skill and passion, with perfectly balanced flavors and a presentation that could rival any top-tier restaurant. Each bite is a celebration of quality ingredients and culinary artistry. And then there are the desserts—truly a revelation. Even though I don’t usually gravitate towards sweets, the desserts at Lele Kitchen are nothing short of magical. They’re crafted with such creativity and care that they feel like little works of art, leaving even the most indifferent to sweets thoroughly impressed. Lele Kitchen offers more than just exquisite food; it provides an experience of unmatched quality and warmth. With its delightful combination of innovative cuisine, fantastic service, and a staff that goes above and beyond, this restaurant is a must-visit for anyone looking to savor exceptional flavors in a welcoming setting.

Each dish composition and presentation from the bites through the appetizers to the main course is outstanding, the pairing of the fresh ingredients are exceptional. If you want to treat your taste buds beyond the standard good experiences and you consider yourself a gourmand food lover this is the RIGHT place for you. The atmosphere and surroundings in the restaurant is pleasant. The restaurant was quiet even when was almost full. The staff is knowledgeable about their menu items and very very helpful and friendly.

I'm not quite sure where to start with this review as lelé kitchen defies the typical food review. Let me say that the recent SF Chronicle review of the restaurant doesn't do this place justice. The Blossom Hill Road location is quite unassuming to say the least, but don't be fooled by a book's cover as the saying goes. Do not pass up the oysters! They are presented in a unique and yet simplistic manner, no bed of crushed ice for these succulent beauties which are seasoned way beyond a typical tartar sauce along with horseradish. The Wagyu and halibut entrees were artistically presented along with vegetables which were perfectly prepared. The apple cake is one of those rare desserts that you will remember for its creativity and exquisite tastes. Life is short, eat dessert, and be prepared to be wowed. The service was also very attentive, knowledgeable, and personable. They understand the magic that happens in the kitchen, and they do an excellent job of completing the entire experience. lelé kitchen is destined to be a jewel in the SF Bay Area dining scene! I'm glad I found this culinary treasure in its early days as getting reservations are going to be a real challenge once the word gets out!

Lovely and unique presentations of food with equally amazing taste profiles. Visited for a special birthday but was disappointed that there was no recognition on behalf of the occasion. Why ask if it is a special occasion, if there is not going to be a small acknowledgment table side?

After being very happy customers of Lele Cake (bakery/cafe next door), we had high expectations coming to Lele Kitchen on Friday night. The ambience was great, and the service was great. However the food was nothing special: - oysters, potatoe bites, draniki, beetroot cutlets: 3/5 - crudo: 4/5 - halibut: 4/5 (on the edge of being too dry) - grenki: 5/5 Overall, not sure if we will be back. At least not until the chef/kitchen situation is fully figured out

Food: almost everything was very good. The oysters and draniki (potato pancakes) were amazing. The salad was very good, but had an unusual umami flavor. However, once the pasta dish arrived, squash ravioli with sage and chanterelles, we were very disappointed. It had a very strange flavor, almost sour. We expected some sweetness from the squash and sage but instead it tasted as if something in that dish was almost pickled. The mushrooms were definitely not chanterelles. It is very likely that this was just this one weird dish and had we ordered something else, we would have been blown away, so this place is worth another try. Wine selection: only California wines. Service: Good but slow. Ambiance and atmosphere were nice.
