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.

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...

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...
