Il Leone

Absolutely blown away by this place! From the moment we walked in, the vibe was warm and welcoming. You can feel the passion behind every detail from the beautiful decor to the incredible food. Everything we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and made with love. The staff treated us like family, and the service was top-notch. My new go-to spot highly recommend to anyone looking for an amazing dining experience. Proud of what you’ve built!

My wife and I have been trying to find a cool, local restaurant with great food. I feel like we may have finally found it! The food was all great! The service was equally as good. Loved the vibe of the place, and the decor was so nice. The calamari was some of the best I have had! Also, I highly recommend the spicy vodka rigatoni! The crème brule was the only miss, because it did not come warm… other than that everything was perfect. I will definitely be back, and recommending this restaurant to family and friends!

Dinner was outstanding! I must say, the flavors harmonize so beautifully. Ray, Frank, and other staff members were wonderful! Phenomenal customer services and very attentive. Definitely had a wonderful experience. Looking for fine dine?! I recommend this place. Thank you for the experience!

Great food, great service, loved the decor! We were very excited to try this new restaurant and it did not disappoint! The food was so good- probably one of if not the best chicken dishes I have ever had. The chicken was so perfectly cooked with amazing flavor! The pasta was very good, perfectly cooked too!

If you want good food, comfortable atmosphere and nothing but positive vibes this is your place. I will post some pictures of my favorite dishes ever since I’ve been going. I don’t have any pictures of the pizza but “Pizze Di Arugula” is one of my favorites from the 3 that I’ve tried. And the best part is, it’s BYOB.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely loved Il Leone! The food was delicious, the service was excellent, and the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. Everything about the experience made me feel at home. I’ll definitely be coming back every week — it’s that good!

Excellent atmosphere, delicious food and very reasonably priced. Staff were super friendly and accommodating. My wife got the Bronzino and I ordered the Pollo Martini. We also got a ceasar salad and the cauliflower (not pictured). Everything was to perfection. Would highly recommend!

I had a great experience at Il Leon! I ordered the Pollo Milanese, which was absolutely delicious—perfectly cooked and full of flavor. We also shared a pizza topped with beef prosciutto, and it was hands down one of the best pizzas I’ve ever had. The staff was very professional, attentive, and genuinely welcoming, which made the entire visit feel even more special. The atmosphere had a great vibe, warm and inviting—I immediately felt comfortable and at home. Highly recommend this place for both the food and the overall experience. I’ll definitely be coming back!

It was the last minute surprise birthday party for my husband! Ari made everything possible to make this party of 12 people happened! Very cute, beautiful atmosphere, nice family oriented place! Great team work! Great Service! Great Food! My family enjoyed it very much and my husband was shocked and really surprised with his party! He was happy! Thank you Il Leone Family! Mariya L.

This place is beautiful. Excellent service and very classy. It's also BYOB. The food can be a hit or miss. Some of it is delicious, others fall flat. I had the: Whipped Ricotta: loved the ricotta, didn't love the bread that came with it. Caesar salad: very good Gnocchi: delicious, very soft

Super cute spot, friendly staff and large portions of food! They were kind enough to take us for a 9:15pm reservation and were very attentive. However they were really on us to box everything asap. The risotto is good just needs more garlic, Brussel sprouts are good and the Branzino was fresh however it was just served with a lot of butter, undercooked potatoes as sautéed spinach. The spinach was delicious! The food is good and well priced however was not completely blown away. The staff from the hostess, our waiter, food runners etc were all very friendly and attentive. The inside is nicely designed with pretty chandeliers and there was lots of social chatter about the room. The specific table we sat at had lounge chairs which was cool but it was hard to eat because you had to lean super forward and the table was pretty tall. Next time I'd like to come earlier and sit somewhere different, think my experience would be different. Also I think I would stick to a pasta with shrimp and get a side of cauliflower for my meal.

Bunch tried this new BYOB restaurant last night, what a great experience. The food was amazing. The Atmosphere, Service and the owners were all wonderful. Definitely we will be returning. A+

Excellent food and service. I will be back soon- Owner was attentive and a BYOB was the bonus round!!

The ambiance in this restaurant is so chick! Love it! It's a BYOB, with the choice of juice or soda. The food is clean and flavorful! So delicious! I look forward into coming back. This restaurant doesn't disappoint.

Great service. Food was fresh and excellent. Nice portions. Was not rushed. BYOB. Will be back.

We had a nice time celebrating my husband's birthday tonight and were excited to check out the new local hotspot. The restaurant was beautiful and very cool vibe. Our service was however very rushed, and the first thing I asked was, what is this photo on your website, do you have this meal? See photo.. he said oh yes we have that meal it's the lamb chop special! I said wonderful, since it doesn't look like it comes with sides I'll also order the Brussels sprouts. I was disappointed when a completely different dish came out, see photo. Wasn't made aware it would be different and wasn't even told what it was I am guessing horseradish and maybe pistachio since it was green? I was even more disappointed and surprised when I saw the bill and was charged $68 for my 4 lamb chops. Other meals included the spicy rigatoni which I had seen reviews for and was excited but it was not spicy and I didn't see or taste any peppers. Brussels were tasty and panna cotta was prepared nicely. I would go back, but I wouldn't order a special again. Why was this your first photo on your site if it's not even a meal you offer?

Great service, ambiance and food. The owner and his wife are both lovely and although the restaurant is booming they both take the time to walk around and ensure that their customers are taken care of and happy.

Restaurant just opened in the marketplace off of route 34 close to our house! We had few hours to kill while our kids were at an mma Christmas party so decided to check it out ! The ambience, food, service was great!!! And bonus, it's a byob with buy rite a few doors down! We got the Caesar salad, rigatoni veal ragu and the pollo martini! We started with toasted garlic bread too! Everything was delicious and our server was great as well! Would definitely recommend this place and wishing them the best of luck! Can't wait to return!

Amazing ! Awesome ambiance, delicious food, exceptional service. The owner is top notch! Had dinner with friends we were a party of 8 and everyone loved their food. I had the Bronzino special, the arancini appetizer and calamari were all amazing. BYOB and don't miss out on this gem

When you walk inside you immediately forget that this used to be a Dress Barn in a strip mall. Beautifully decorated, everything looks high end. The place may seem expensive to some but you have to remember that this is elevated cuisine. My wife had veal osso bucco and I had shrimp francese. I'm pretty sure I spelled both of those wrong but trust me when I tell you that everything was delicious. When we arrived for our 6:00 reservation, there were only two other couples there. By the time we left at 7;30 they were packed. The staff was very attentive and friendly. I give Il Leone my highest recommendation. Enjoy!

Just tried. EXCELLENT! Food was delicious. Try the calamari, carbonara, spicy rigatoni, pollo martini, chicken milanese , veal ragu! Service perfect. BYOB Loved and will most definitely go back.

The best thing was the bottle we brought from home.. Nice waiter though...Pulpo appetizer was inedible but they took it back and off our check. Baked clams were good and the risotto dishes were just ok.Focaccia bread they put out was good dough but definitely under seasoned.. Small place and tables very close..

Not sure what's so great about this place. Food is bland, overcooked, salty. Didn't even bother to look at the dessert menu. Will not be coming back!

Went here for the first time last night and more than pleasantly surprised. The ambiance was perfection. The service was of the highest I've ever received dining out. The owner interacted with us on more than one friendly and hospitable occasion and our server was knowledgeable attentive and matched our sense of humor. On top of all that, the food was phenomenal. The baked clams, the arugula salad, spicy rigatoni, pollo martini... were beyond excellent. Their desserts are made fresh daily and we split the tiramisu which was the best I've had in a long time. We were treated like family here. As a current restaurant manager I was unbelievably impressed on all fronts and would recommend this place to anyone and everyone. By far the best dining experience I've ever had. Great staff, great food, beautiful restaurant. Can't wait to go back!
