Leona's Cucina Italiana

We have been ordering their fried mozzarella sticks for years. It was very common for us to place an order for just multiple orders of them. But we just ordered this weekend, and they’ve changed their vendor. My wife and I are incredibly bummed and now have to seek out a new restaurant. They went from delicious battered mozz sticks to the gross bread crumb mozz sticks. Huge difference, and huge downgrade. I hope management sees this and goes back to their previous vendor.

Ordered via DoorDash even tho I live close 😅 seriously the best meal I’ve had all year. Every item was perfect. Do yourself a favor and try this spot.

Holy crap, do NOT order the fettuccine Alfredo from this place! I almost immediately vomited taking a bite. The chicken tasted rotten, the “sauce” was like white water with no flavor. What an insult to Italian food. And the nerve to charge $18 for that slop.

I am in shock at how bad that was. You have ITALIAN in your name, for Gods sake. You should go out of business just on the Alfredo alone. So disappointed!

AND WHY DO YOU HAVE TO WATER THE RANCH AND CEASAR DRESSING DOWN???

UNBELIEVABLE.

I miss Etnas that was across from Hoovers so much. Had been going there for years and years for my Vegetarian Calzone!! Well I think I just found my new go to for the same. Tastes just as good as Etnas did. I might add though that the marinara sauce I asked for on the side to use with the calzone is a little richer in flavor than Etnas was. 😋

Wow! This place is AWESOME! Food was on point, and the staff was extremely courteous. If you are in the area, this place is a must! The calzones are HUGE and delicious. The alfredo pizza is to die for! We can't wait to go back!

Is not the same it change

I tried numerous Italian restaurants in San Diego, but this place in particular is the best I've had so far. They have a diverse menu, and their customer service is always stellar. I highly suggest trying their pastas!

They canceled my order off uber eats with no reason why so I have no reason to come back

We ordered food from here off doordash. Shrimp Alfredo and it smelt bad, tasted terrible. The garlic bread is burnt. The only thing good was the salad.

I ordered a gluten free meal and my salad came loaded with croutons

Dietary restrictions: They asked about my dietary restrictions and then they ignored it. My order took 1 hour and 20 minutes. The driver didn’t ring the doorbell
