Leonardo is the very best Italian restaurant for any family dinners and celebrations. The food is delicious, and the service is attentive, timely, and friendly. The cost is reasonable and you will have a great time. They even have a TV monitor if you want to project photos of the honored guest and family. Try it out. You will be pleased.

Came here for lunch on a Monday. Ordered the eggplant rollatini, veal saltimbocca, and Mona Lisa (lobster ravioli topped with smoked salmon). Also received a fresh, warm basket of bread. The rose sauce on the ravioli was deliciously creamy. The veal was tender. Great presentation. I only have a few complaints. The butter served with the bread was cold, making it difficult to spread. The salmon was a little too salty. Didnt know that the entrees were served with a choice of soup or salad (yay!) The chicken veggie soup wasn't anything spectacular but still good and healthy. Wish I ordered that myself instead of the salad, which was just romaine lettuce with some tomato slices and olives. I could make that at home. But overall, great value and nice environment. Would highly recommend to a friend!

Had my only daughters wedding shower here yesterday April 3 2022. From the time we found the place. To talking menu and placement of tables Robert was fantastic! I live 90 minutes from the restaurant and he made this so easy I highly recommend him and his staff. Kim was wonderful serving our party of 24. The menu was delicious and served hot for all of us. And so wonderful! Thank you so much Robert for helping me make my Daughter's shower a wonderful one!

LOVED their risotto. Fresh, savory and delicious. That said, their bread was amazing as well. They definitely do a good job in the kitchen. Staff was very friendly too. Can see myself coming back to try more things!
