    We booked the restaurant for steaks. The steaks were cooked ( reverse sear method) per the request of medium rare. Not sure what happen but the steaks only tasted of salt, no beef taste detected. The salt content throughout the meat, and the crust, were just too much to handle. Our tongues were very tingly from the salt onslaught. The other courses: starters and sides, were average and salty (but edible) Octopus, risotto, brussel sprouts, mushrooms. Caesar salad was on good as were the desserts. Service was exceptional. We did mention the experience to our waiter. Management promptly intervened and offered apologies, along with asking with "how can we make this right". We didnt ask for any changes in our bill; the manager responded with comped dessert . In retrospect, the management should have taken it upon themselves to reduce the $600 bill on their own.

    Several dishes were extremely salty (redfish, shepards pie and filet). Had to send back fish….reordered medium rare + steak, it came rare….had to send back to cook longer. Once finally received, it was also very salty. Don’t know what was going on in the kitchen, but it ruined a special occasion dinner and was not compensated by restaurant. Obviously, do not recommend.

    First time trying Leo’s last night and we were extremely happy with the entire experience. Our server Tracy was outstanding! Great cocktail to start off the evening while listening to the piano music. Started with some delicious oysters from Maine, little gem salad which we could have split, shared a 12 oz. Filet, with some duck fat potatoes. Tracy recommended a fabulous French red wine with our dinner.the ambience is really great. We will definitely be coming back again.

    We had a selections of starters, a small plate, and fresh bread--they were all delicious. The service was also excellent--friendly and professional without being intrusive. The restaurant is lovely and sedate; it even has white table clothes, a rarity. After 6:00 pm, there was a live pianist, which made the dining experience even more enjoyable because you can carry on a conversation. I was told live piano is offered on Thursdays -Saturdays.

    We’ve been waiting for this since they opened and it didn’t disappoint. The whole experience is amazing, from the decor, ambiance to the food. The service was great, very attentive and the drinks and food were delicious and perfectly cooked. We were the last to leave the restaurant, Avery at the bar was very nice, we kept talking about whiskey for a while. Definitely we’ll be back soon.

    A few of the meats were more dry than juicy. The risotto and bread were good and Mac n cheese. I wasn't fond of the burrata ,pork belly or octopus. Service was great and the drinks were great.
