Great food every time! They were very busy tonight but we were seated as soon as a table opened up.

Kid-friendliness: They have highchairs and the atmosphere is good for kids.

Thank you for the friendly service. This is a polite request to check the order of Fettucine Grilled Chicken Parmesan before serving it.

I was honestly expecting a bit more out of this place considering the great reviews it has.The items on the menu are priced fairly high, but the portions are quite large to accommodate this.Overall, we ordered side soups, bread, manicotti, and spaghetti. The side soups were INCREDIBLE, and the bread paired nicely with it. The main dishes were also alright. The pasta was slightly overcooked for my personal liking, but I was unsure if I was allowed to order it this way.Service was just lacking. I understand being busy, but it was hard to ask any questions. People were seating themselves at tables that were not cleaned yet. There was a table next to us in which all people in the party had received and eaten their entire meals seemingly before one woman in the same group had received hers.I'd really love to come back and try other menu items, but I think take-out would be the best option here.

Parking: We had to park two blocks away as there was no available parking close to the entrance.

A local favorite! Leo's has the best gizzards ever! They are very tender and the flavor is phenomenal. And then top it off with their spicy dip! So many other great options as well. Another favorite of mine is their fries. I can't get enough of their special seasoning! And I can never get enough of their homemade pizza. I had the garlic cheese bread for the first time on my last visit and it is another favorite now also!

The prices went up and the service was bad. The waitress walked by our table at least six times before she took our glasses for a refill. The food took forever to come out.
