This was my first time here, I usually go to the one on Morena Blvd. This one had seating outside in the sun or inside in the cavernous dark. The front door slammed shut and is something I would address because there should be a welcoming sound when you enter. We sat in fun, older booths and ordered drinks. The chips and individual plastic salsa cups were delivered. We tried burritos and a lettuce wrap chicken and egg plant. I was trying out eggplant and I usually don't like it...read full review
This is one of my favorite places to eat!! On Mission Gorge Rd . I'm always greeted with a friendly hello and welcome by the wonderful staff. Alot of the staff have been there for several years and when they get to know you they remember what you order and what you like. They check on you often as well. The dining room makes you feel like you are in Mexico. Definitely recommend you try it!!!

Not great but not horrible. Essentialy, below average; there's any number of better places. It reminded me of the quality of "Mexican food" I endured during an East Coast assignment (i.e. bland) but now that I'm home, I expect better. From reading other reviews, it seems Tio Leo's declined in quality in the past few years. Sadly, I have to agree and I am not prone to posting negative reviews. The management needs to step up their game given the competition here.
Tio Leo's on Mission Gorge Rd is a spacious restaurant with seating options both indoors and outdoors. The ambiance inside gives off a Mexican vibe. The friendly staff, some of whom have been there for years, provide excellent service and remember customers' preferences. The menu offers vegetarian options like the vegetarian burrito, which is highly recommended. However, the food quality has declined over the years, with some finding it below average and bland. Despite this, the restaurant has potential for improvement and could benefit from enhancing the dining experience to compete with other establishments in the area.
