Quaint cozy corner cafe serving elevated Italian American fusion for breakfast and lunch. Loved the Grilled Vegetable Panini with goat cheese. Great texture and flavor.

This was our second time dining with Leonardo Ristorante & Pizzeria. We came in last Tuesday night at 8:45PM, and Arturo provided kind, quick, and accommodating service. We had barely eaten that day. The beet salad special, salmon entree special, chicken parmigiana, wine and cocktails all came out tasting freshly made and delicious. The staff was friendly and made our dining experience enjoyable. We hope to visit again soon!

I'm not certain, but I recall the Osso Bucco priced at $45 not the $50 I was billed Never offered pepper on salad. Waiters seemed preoccupied with locals not out of owners. Food was okay not great Unsure if we'd return
Patty
The food was good but I had to point out that they overcharged for my dish by $5. They also charge 2% if you use a credit card, which they don't disclose until you get the bill. I would not go back. Don't trust them.

Delicious, beautifully prepared breakfast and lunch. My wife loves the Eggs Benedict. Excellent espresso drinks. A nice little patio for those warm days.
A great find with excellent food and wonderful service! The salmon special is one of the best salmon dishes I've ever had! And I don't usually order it but I'm glad my boyfriend did! And my melanzane dish - chef's kiss! The eggplant wrapped around pasta was to die for!

AMAZING! The food with its Calabrian flare is so delicious! The entire crew is friendly and welcoming... from the person who greets at the door, to the bartender, to the wait staff (my waiter last night, Arturo, was so attentive). Leonardo himself is there to greet guests and to make sure everyone is having a wonderful experience. The ambiance is very nice and the noise level is perfect.... energetic, but it was easy to have a conversation at my own table without straining to hear. I sat in the main dining room, but there is a very cool room in the back of the restaurant that is available for private parties and overflow dining. It has a neat equestrian vibe. I love all the decor back there but there is an elk trophy that's really impressive and a large photo of a cowboy in front of an American flag that is awesome. Come to find out it is a photo of Leonardo himself. He rides cuttings horses. A real down to earth guy. I highly recommend this restaurant!

We had an amazing meal for our 30th Anniversary. My wife had a savory veal shank, and I had a great salmon dish. Leonardo is the best, and you can tell he really takes pride in his restaurant and actually sat and chatted with most of the tables. Class act and fantastic restaurant!
