Fun New Reasons to Enjoy Gig Harbor's Lele Restaurant

Thai food is one of my favorites, and I often have lunch meetings at Gig Harbor’s Lele restaurant for both the food and the ambiance. Now Lele has something new to entice you even more for dinner on the weekends – live music every Friday and Saturday.

Last weekend my husband and I enjoyed dinner at Lele. We had two of our favorite dishes – Spring Rolls and Chicken Larp – as well as two new dishes we have never tried – Saigon Crepe and Malaysian Noodles.

As usual, the food was wonderful, authentic and service piping hot. Lele has a nice selection of wines and beers and an expanding selection of cocktails. The soft lighting combined with the warm color pallet is also lovely for a nice dinner any night of the week.

Lele popped over to chat with us while we were enjoying our dinner and she shared with me that Phad Thai continues to be the best selling item on the menu, and she is looking at adding more vegan items to the menu and some new lunch specials. The kitchen is open until 11pm most nights and they offer take-out and catering as well as their party room is available for special events.

My husband and I walked over to see a movie and then stopped back in after to check-out the Jazz Collective for their opening night in the beautiful party room. The Jazz Collective will be performing each Friday and Saturday night with dancing and cocktails. We were delighted with the quality of this band, and excited when they brought on stage Gig Harbor’s favorite saxophone player Cheryl Clark. It was really fun, lots of people dancing, great music, excellent food and an awesome mango Mojito made for a great evening.

What are you doing next Friday or Saturday night? You should definitely be doing the Lele “lounge”. Super fun! I’ll see you there! Check out Lele’s website at www.lelerestaurant.com/
