Ski Beach Leesburg FL is the kind of place where bold Cajun flavors meet breezy lakeside views. We came for the Southern-leaning menu and stayed for the scene — dinner by the water followed by a relaxed stroll on the dock.
Food & Favorites at Ski Beach
The kitchen leans Cajun/Southern with familiar comforts and a few bolder options. Our table highlights:
- Creole Sweet Fried Chicken & Waffles – Crispy, sweet, and savory in one bite.
- Glazed Salmon – A lighter, nicely balanced pick if you’re not in the mood for fried.
- Cajun Sweet Fried Chicken – Comfort food with a gentle kick.
- Bronzed Red Fish – Big, classic Cajun flavor. Someone in our group loved it; if you’re new to Cajun seasonings, it can be an acquired taste.
Atmosphere & Waterfront Setting
Sitting right on Lake Harris, Ski Beach makes dinner feel like an outing. Inside is casual and lively; outside brings the views. After we ate, we walked the dock to cap the evening — simple and pretty.
Service & Pace
Our experiences have ranged from excellent and attentive to the occasional “where’s our waiter?” moment. On good nights, food, pacing, and the setting line up for a memorable meal.
Tips for Visiting Ski Beach
- Ask about the day’s specials — good way to sample the Cajun lean without going too heavy.
