Showed up for reservation and restaurant was closed for repairs. Clearly they did not bother to call those of us who had reservations and post nothing on their website about being closed.

We had a wonderful time. The view ams service was very good. We shared the calamari and clams oreganata which were very good. My shrimp cocktail was plentiful, served on a chilled silver platter. I recommend the Branzino if you are looking for something light. Overall we had a good time and would return.
Great meal outside in the patio ... service excellent and the stags leap Chardonnay drank well with our lamb chops and pork chop
We were at Le Leone on a quiet Monday night, and sometimes I find restaurants do not perform as well on quiet nights when they are not fully staffed. But Le Leone was as good as ever. The service was excellent and the food was - well it is the best Italian cooking around. Beautiful outdoor seating by a waterfall too. A perfect evening.
This was our second time and will probably be our last. Too bad, as the food is pretty good and I know it gets a regular crowd-maybe that is why we were dismissed by the head waiter and ignored by everyone else (except the greeter, who was very attentive when we arrived, and apologetic when we left). From arguing about the non-alcoholic beer selection to NO ONE checking on us during dinner-no water refills, no offer for another drink or glass of wine, and having to get up and ask for bill from said greeter, we were barely acknowledged from the moment we arrived until we had to beg for the check. An overhead light aimed at our table kept randomly going on and off throughout the meal and when asked, they said nothing could be done. We were nicely dressed and had our adult son with us, so we fit in fine otherwise. I give up.
Excellent food and service

If you are looking for a gorgeous location that could be on the Italian coast, fantastic food, impeccable service and lovely fellows patrons, then Il Leone is your place! They have an extensive menu as well as specials, ranging from pizzas to entrees. I could make a meal from sampling appetizers, but we decided to try several and share. Save room for dessert, because their choices are not an after thought. Unlike Greenwich Avenue where parking can be tricky, they have valet parking as well. Il Leone fits our definition of perfect!
My friends and I went here for a retirement dinner. The service was excellent and although the food was very good as well the portions were on the small side especially for the prices that they charge. The ambiance was very pleasant and I would return here especially for their happy hour.
Enjoyed the ambiance. Very lovely hidden gem. Great service and the food is incredible. So much fun with the song along piano player. Definitely a fun time with the girls and outdoor seating or a romantic vibe with your sweetheart!

We love this place! Have been about 5 times and it is the best Italian food around. The best chicken parmesan which is always my favorite! The flatbreads are amazing, the cacio e pepe, filet mignon, bolognese, and so much more. I don't think there is a bad dish on their menu. Service is great as well and they have a live pianist at night which creates such a great ambience. Noah is our go-to bartender! Great selection of wines and cocktails. A must try!

I probably will not return. Used to go often when it was Centro's. This was my 4th or 5 th time there. Thus time it was not good. We waited almost 40 minutes for a panini and omelet. Requested salad with dressing on side. Came swimming in oil. Even getting the check wax z production. Staff talking to each other by the front and ignoring customers.
Well prepared, thoughtful, interestingly tweaked and wide-ranging dishes. Polite and (not overly) attentive service. Can't wait for warmer weather sitting outside over the waterfalls.
