Leader

Attended the Isanti Spirits dinner. Chef did a great job, service was outstanding. If you haven’t made the trip to the Leader, you are missing out.

Excellent food but slow help for us. I no your busy so have to be a little patient.

We had such a great night at Leader! The servers were attentive, the food was top-notch (I love finding something new each time I visit) and the wine was fantastic! I think I found a new favorite. (Conundrum) Whoever is in charge of curating the wine list should get a raise!

Leader is one of my most favorite places in Cambridge. The restaurant is open & bright and I love the vibe. It has a feeling of being downtown and yet a small town atmosphere where I am always sure to run into someone that I know...which I love. The staff are friendly, courteous, kind & caring and this goes for the department store as well as the restaurant. I always feel welcome at Leader and am warmly greeted. The food is fantastic and Chef Robert is amazing; as is the rest of the kitchen crew; a quick shout out to Jeff, Mike & Nicole and a "Thank you to all of you!" Grant & Michelle have done a wonderful job not only in the restaurant but also in the department store. It is so pretty in there with lots of great clothes, shoes, accessories and Cambridge-Isanti paraphernalia as well. If you are a resident of the area or just passing through...you will want to make a stop at Leader.

Very unique stop at Leader, which is a combined restaurant and clothing store in downtown Cambridge. Nice and open dining interior with seating available outdoors. Had the brisket with mashed potatoes and braised cabbage which was very good. Only minor issue the cabbage was just a tad salty but overall a nice dish! My guest had the half chicken which she said was great as well. Service was excellent and they even had a bar where we had wine and Bloody Marys prior to our lunch. On a side note they make delicious homemade Popovers with cinnamon butter you can have with your meal or take home. Easy off street parking available and is handicap accessible. In the end even picked up a pair of men's summer shorts which I had never done before at the same place I had lunch. Lol. Nice stop if you're in Cambridge.

We ordered their Thanksgiving feast and wow it was fantastic! We are definitely going to start eating at Leader regularly! The frosting on the perfect round pumpkin cakes is phenomenal (I want the recipe😉). The only thing was the menu for Thanksgiving said onion soup & we were given a creamy very pumpkin-y soup that we didn't care for. But, doesn't change how delicious their food is! The Staff were busy bee's & friendly.💗

First time diner. Had the breakfast sandwich with a side breakfast salad. It was delicious! I had to try my husband's siracha fries. What a taste treat! Yum all around. Will be back!

The ambiance is delightful, service excellent, and the food was fantastic. A great value. I have some knowledge of the history of the Leader store in Cambridge, having worked for the Owner family years ago. It's fantastic that the brick walls and wood floors have been preserved throughout. With the open window front it's super naturally lit during daylight hours. The temptation to shop in the store while waiting for the food was too much to overcome. But when we returned to our table they thought we had left and reset the table. They should have something to leave on the table to let staff know that you've gone shopping while waiting.

I need to know the name of one of the Chefs. This guy is so inviting and takes care of you when the waitress is busy. Asks how did we do before you leave as well. Food is always great. I always sit at the bar just to witness this young man at work. Sings his orders. Name Please?

My husband and I placed a curbside order for pickup tonight. He got there to pickup our order only to find out that our ticket didn't print. Staff quickly got on the ball to prepare our order and had it ready in no time and the gentleman who was in charge made sure to handle the ticket system error right away so that it didn't hopefully happen again. Our dinner was absolutely delicious! I did place a call to the restaurant and spoke to McKenna (I hope I spelled her name right) and told her that dinner was great and we were so appreciative of the service we received. I want to let the owner know that he has an impeccable staff that handled a problem with flawless execution. Your establishment is in good hands sir!
