Leona’s is always great dining and a great experience. The outdoor seating has a very inviting feel. Everything we ordered was excellent, especially the shishito peppers, miso eggplant and udon cacio e pepe. We are not first timers at Leona’s and look forward on returning

Worst experience I have had at any restaurant EVER! Had a reservation for 7:30 at the sushi bar and was told it might be a few minutes…45 minutes later, a rude employee asked me “how can I help you”. I asked to be seated and he rudely said can’t help at the moment but you can leave anytime. I will never be there again as well as anybody who asks me about this establishment.

Leona’s is hands down one of the Best restaurants I’ve ever been to. Each dish they serve is superb and tastes sublime. It is my favorite go to place for sushi, it is always so fresh! The ambience is nice, there are three rooms to choose from so you can decide how noisy you’d like your meal to be. The service is quick and easy. The restaurant is a great choice and I am always impressed with the quality.
