It was a weekday day, but don't remember which one. (Whatever day Chez Leandra is closed.) We'd just strolled down the beach, looking for somewhere to eat lunch and walked up to their front door. There were a few empty tables so we asked the waitress near the door if we could sit at one of those tables and were told we needed reservations…in a tone that implied we should know that! It was pretty busy but I guess we'd never needed a reservation at any of the other Orient places in all the times we've visited, so was surprised.
