Came here for the port, and I gotta say, the port was worth it. Food was mediocre, service was amazing. Shout out to Juliana at the bar for being an amazing bartender and server.

Leitao is the best place for Portuguese food in NYC - and already became one of our favorite restaurants in the city. Beautiful interior, unique & authentic dishes, and the friendliest staff. Can’t wait to come back and also bring family and friends. Obrigada! 🙏🏻

Leitao serves delicious food consistently. The food deserves recognition. Tasty offerings. Nice setting. Many employees keep the restaurant running with noticeable kindness. The meal was a highlight for our group.

Atmosphere was good, steak was really good with that buttered bread - Fava and Chicken were kinda too flavorful

I had the pleasure of dining at Leitao,and it was truly an incredible experience. The food was superb—authentic, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. Every dish showcased the richness of Portuguese cuisine, paired with excellent wine selections that complemented the meal beautifully.
The service was warm and attentive, making us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. What made the evening even more special was the Fado night—the music was absolutely mesmerizing, creating an atmosphere that was both intimate and full of soul.
If you’re looking for a place that offers outstanding food, great wine, and an unforgettable cultural experience, this is it. I can’t wait to return!

This place is amazing. The food is absolutely incredible. The chef/owner is a stellar dude. Definitely give this place a visit you cannot go wrong.
Being from Porto, I felt at home at Leitao. The food is delicious, and everyone is very kind. Going back again very soon!

The food is unbelievably good but of course the recipes are the chef’s personal take on the original recipes. I’m saying this because I see a lot of people here saying they’re trying for the first time Portuguese food and this is not it.
