    Our server Jem was amazing. He made excellent recommendations, was super attentive and even consulted the bartender to help with a wine pairing. A truly wonderful experience!

    My neighbor and I were celebrating a positive event and buying a gift certificate. We started by sharing the Cobb salad which was beautifully presented, interesting and delicious. Both of us had pasta dishes which we enjoyed and left with dinner for the next day. Our waiter, Liam, was attentive and friendly. Both of us are grandmothers and commented after dinner that it is so inspiring to meet such delightful members of the younger generation. Cost was reasonable and we know the recipients of the gift certificate will have a special experience.

    Our 3rd time at Leonessa and actually just gets better! Food, wine, service outstanding! Bit noisy this time due to large party beside us but an exception and back to baseline upon their departure. Shout out to our server, Mariette, who was so pleasant, knowledgeable and fun. It is a bit pricey but as a night out such as my wife's birthday, worth every penny for a great dinner experience--best on Cape! Thank you!

    The food at Leonessa was so flavorful and fresh tasting. The service was perfect from the valet to the host to the server to the bussing staff- friendly and attentive, but non-imposing.
