" Had a delightful dinner at Leono's! The lasagna was hands down one of the best I've tasted—freshly made and layered just right. My partner had the pepperoni pizza, which was also impressive with its crispy crust and generous toppings. The atmosphere was cozy, perfect for a date night. Our server was attentive but not intrusive, making sure we had everything we needed without hovering. The prices are quite reasonable for the quality of food we received. Will definitely be returning to try more dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" Leono's has always been a go-to for my family, but my last visit was somewhat disappointing. The service was fantastic, as always, but the pizza didn’t have the same homemade taste that I've come to love. It felt like the crust might have been pre-made rather than freshly rolled. Despite this, my wife enjoyed her lasagna and said it was as good as ever. I'm hoping the next visit is back to the restaurant's usual standards, as we adore their lasagna. We'll be back, fingers crossed for a better crust! " (*Curated Review*)

" Leono's feels like a family gathering every time I’m there. The place is cozy, decorated with nostalgia, and the food is consistently good. This time I ordered the stuffed shells, which were creamy and full of flavor, paired with an Italian salad that was refreshing. My friend had a pizza—superb crust! The wait was slightly longer, but given how busy they were after lunch, I didn’t mind. Each visit has reinforced why I keep coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Leono's is a lovely little Italian joint! The decor has a quaint charm, and I liked the family-friendly atmosphere. I ordered the seafood pasta special, and the flavors were delightful, but I was hoping for a larger portion. While everything else about the meal was spot on, I do wish they'd be a bit more generous with the seafood. The service folks were attentive, keeping our drinks full and checking in often. I’ll be back to give the pizza a try on my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Leono's for the first time on my birthday, and I was incredibly impressed! The atmosphere was cheerful and inviting, which was perfect for my special day. I ordered a personal pan supreme pizza, and it was loaded with toppings. Fresh ingredients made a noticeable difference in flavor. The crust had a nice crunch without being overly greasy. For dessert, I couldn’t resist the tiramisu, which was rich and delicious. My server was attentive and even brought out a candle for my dessert, making my birthday meal feel extra special. Highly recommend for anyone looking for great pizza and a friendly vibe. " (*Curated Review*)

" We stumbled upon this restaurant by chance and I have to say I am so glad we did! The food was amazing, I could not get enough of the marinara sauce on my spaghetti. My wife enjoyed her pizza, which had a perfect crust and delicious toppings. The atmosphere was charming and perfect for a date. Our server was friendly and made our meal even more enjoyable. It won’t be our last visit for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" I frequently visit Leono's, and they sure did not disappoint this time around. I had the chicken Alfredo—rich and creamy with a homemade feel. The fettuccine was cooked to perfection! My partner had the special pizza of the day, and we both loved it. Friendly service and a classy atmosphere make it a go-to for fine dining! I tend to recommend their tiramisu too—it’s delicious!
