Average. Wasn't expecting much so I wasn't too disappointed. My main disappointment was for the pizza toppings. Did a thin half/half and toppings for half the pizza costs the same as the whole pizza. You'd think that meant they would do a lot more topping but no, it's the average amount of toppings. What was NOT average was the pathetic amount of spinach I got in my stuffed pizza. There was almost nothing in there.

I would not recommend. I ordered a fish plater and It so fishy tasting to the point where I couldn’t even swallow it let alone finish the food I payed for. Everything else was tasteless and my garlic bread was stale. The service was sub par. I called and emailed for assistance to no response. Food and service was less than good.

Happy 4th. We had a random day planned and didn't account for dinner. We stopped at Leona's on Irving without thinking it was 7pm on the 4th. They were closing but didn't want us to leave empty handed and gave us this incredible Sicilian style pizza. We tried to pay but they insisted we just enjoy the pizza and the 4th. We had been in a couple times for Italian Ice and gelato (amazing) and noted how friendly and engaged the staff was each time. This was just another example of their way of doing business.

They have a big menu for takeout including pizza by the slice. Walk over for dessert or order dinner for the family. What a wonderful addition to the neighborhood

Food was absolutely amazing and loyal to the original Leona‘s menu down to the psychedelic salad! The wedge fries were hot and perfectly seasoned. Dipping them in the creamy garlic dressing took us back to the old days. The meatball sandwich was just as I remember!

Kathy, the owner came out and greeted us and gave us a little history of the Leona‘s family of restaurants. Great fresh food just like we remember.

We will definitely be back with our family!

I think Old Irving needed a quick pizza/pasta place like this. I tried a sausage thin crust, spaghetti with meat sauce, and a Detroit style with pepperoni. Personally, I wouldn’t order the Detroit style again. The edges were crispy, but it was just okay. The spaghetti and meat sauce were good, but it’s spaghetti and meat sauce so don’t expect anything crazy. The winner was the sausage thin crust. It wasn’t too cheesy, which is what I like, and the crust was a great mix between crispy and easy to chew. The amount of sauce was perfect. Not too little (like some places), but enough to actually taste it. I know some other reviews from here say to avoid toppings, but I thought the sausage was good. I will definitely get the thin crust again.

Ordered a pizza this past weekend. Not bad but found it lacking in taste, sauce tasted like it was straight out the can. I also ordered some calamari but unfortunately it was very rubbery and uneatable so I had to throw it away. Hoping this place gets better as I was a fan of this place.

This is not a Leonas. It's a Romas fast food place. Went there for nothing.

They push some weird scam for you to sign up on a text/email list. They say you will get a free pizza but it doesn’t work. Unpleasant business practices.
