Excellent food! Service was outstanding - knowledgeable, personable, attentiveness just right.

Four of us went for an early dinner before the opera. We did not have a tremendous appetite, so we ordered meals to share. The kitchen was extremely accommodating and split the meals for us before serving. Food was delicious, service was great, and we'll go back again!

I went for an early dinner for Restaurant Week. The service was very attentive. I had the Burrata which was amazing and the presentation was equally beautiful. I also had the Salmon Piccatta which was also amazing served over delicious pasta. I was really too full for the dessert which was pistachio gelato. I would choose a different flavor next time and should have skipped it. Overall, it is a great choice for a very nice dinner with cozy, elevated dining.

We find Leone's to be rock solid, time after time! The wines are often a bit more than we usually spend, but we had a very exciting white Bordeaux at our last visit. We split a Mediterranean salad and also the Chicken Marsala, which meant no leftovers! The sausage and mushroom gnocchi, spaghetti and meatballs, and sausage with broccolini orchietta are other favorites. Ian, our waiter, was juggling several busy tables, including one requesting he take a group photo, yet he kept up with our preferences and was there when needed. The proximity to the Chrysler, Perry Pavilion and Robin Hixon theaters makes Leone's a charming part of a night on the town.

Service was great, they were more than accommodating to add another person to our table. The meatball app was great, same with my lobster fettuccini!

I have been here multiple times and everything always goes smoothly. They are very accommodating of different food allergies or specific needs. I love this place and will continue to come back for many different occasions.

Great food and service— just a bit pricey for the food - and location. I would eat here more if the food was a bit more unique or the price was a bit less. It is fine for once in a while but not our favorite restaurant.

Coffee was cold and old they should have brewed a fresh pot. Entree was luke warm as well and stayed under the serving lights too long is my assumption. Beautiful interior.

STAY AWAY: A party of 4: One appetizer ( came with 3 pieces of bread) 4 main dishes average prices $30+++ each , all four us got dessert. NO alcohol beverages = $300 night ! We left still hungry! Portions sizes for an Italian restaurant with those prices should want to be better! Food was mid and I've had better lasagna and service at Olive Garden. For a linen and cloth restaurant you would also expect the service team to have a bit more hospitality.

James was amazing and his service was above and beyond! The food was excellent and we will definitely be back!
I have never been here before but got tickets to the Winterfest Wisconsin and stopped by for some apps beforehand. We sat at the bar and the service was excellent. James was the best. He is extremely personable and all around great at his job. We will be back (: Thanks James !

Great little upscale Italian eatery. Went on a whim, was pleasantly surprised that the restaurant wasn't stuffy about not being dressed up. Food was good, service was prompt. This is a good date spot for an intimate setting right in the heart of Granby street.

Leone is such a great spot for Italian food in Norfolk. The food is absolutely delicious super fresh, full of flavor, and you can tell everything is made with care. The drinks are really good too, whether you want a cocktail, wine, or something simple.
The service is excellent friendly, attentive, and always on point. It’s one of those restaurants where you feel taken care of from start to finish.
Overall, a fantastic Italian restaurant with great food, great drinks, and great vibes. Highly recommend! 🍝🍷

I had the soup of the day and the duck entree. Both were fantastic! My friends had the Caprese salad and different entrees. Their food was also fabulous. Making the reservation was easy, we were welcomed immediately, and the server was knowledgeable and fun.

Great first time experience! My wife and I went in right after opening time of 4 pm and it was perfect if looking for a more quiet dining experience. Megan was great and providing feedback on questions regarding menu items, wine, and was able to assure my wife's food allergies were accommodated!
