" On a recent trip to San Francisco, I was taken to Leonardo's by a local friend. Now, I can confidently say that this deli has the best sandwiches I've ever had! The ingredients tasted incredibly fresh and flavorful, and I loved how customizable the menu is. The atmosphere felt warm and welcoming, which makes it perfect for both quick lunches and casual meet-ups. I can’t wait to return and try their soups, which I’ve heard are homemade. If you’re in the area, don’t miss out on Leonardo’s! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place is a hidden treasure! The sandwiches are generously filled and the flavors are just amazing. I tried their house special which was loaded with meats and vibrant veggies. Always fresh, and they don’t skimp on the quantity! The owner, Gary, is incredibly warm and friendly, making you feel like part of the family. I brought my family along this time and everyone left smiling, saying they can't wait to come back. It's the perfect spot to satisfy those sandwich cravings while enjoying good vibes. " (*Curated Review*)

" Food was alright but had a hiccup with my sandwich being made incorrectly. I asked for no onions, but it still came with them. The staff was apologetic and fixed it quickly, which I appreciated. The flavors were good, though not a showstopper for me. The ambiance was nice, and the owner was super friendly throughout. I think I might give this place another try while being more specific with my requests next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" The lunch I had today was good, but honestly, not as good as I expected from all the rave reviews. I went for a classic ham and cheese sandwich, expecting an explosion of flavors, but it fell a bit flat for me. The service was nice, and the atmosphere pleasant enough, but I think I expected too much given its reputation. It wasn't bad by any means, it simply didn't hit the high notes I was hoping for. I might give it another shot with a different sandwich next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Completely blown away by the flavors at Leonardo’s Deli! I had the Shaddy Daddy chicken pesto sandwich, and wow—full of vibrant taste and freshness. The bread was nice and crunchy too, which made every bite satisfying. The environment is cozy, and the staff took great care to make sure everything was right. It can get a bit hectic during peak hours, though, so plan your visit wisely. I appreciated the staff's effort in managing the flow on busy days! " (*Curated Review*)

" Okay, where do I even begin? This spot is amazing! The sandwiches are fabric of the community; made with love and passion. I always opt for the pastrami on rye which has a heft to it that you can barely finish. The owner remembers my name which is such a personal touch to experience. The ambiance is relaxed and friendly with Sinatra playing softly in the background; it truly feels like you’ve stepped into a timeless deli. My advice? Don’t skip their homemade soups as they’re delightful! Overall, it's an experience I always look forward to. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was recommended to try the breakfast sandwich here, and it did not disappoint! Fluffy scrambled eggs, rich cheese, and crispy bacon all on a deliciously toasted bagel. The owner was chatting with customers making the place feel warm and welcoming. My only critique was the wait, but sometimes good food takes time. I’m definitely coming back for round two on my next trip to Millbrae! " (*Curated Review*)
