Leonardi's Pizza

South Florida has so many New York style pizza joints, but the true gem is found in North Palm Beach: Leonardi’s Pizza Their dedication to finding the perfect recipes for their pies comes alive in the first bite, and delivers all the way to the last bite. I spoke with the owners Chris and Amanda, and they tried every flour and every cheese and found the best quality ingredients you could ask for. They didn’t settle on mediocrity like most NY pizza places down here in Palm Beach County. There are 3 higher quality pizza competitors nearby. Even though I knew immediately Leonardi’s was superior, I decided I needed to do a side by side comparison. I won’t use names to protect their reputation. I picked up a slice of pizza from competitor A without having it heated up. I took it to Leonardi’s and had them heat it up with one of their own plain slices. I didn’t realize how upsetting competitor A’s pizza made me feel until side by side. See the photos below: A’s pizza looks like it is sick and unhappy, the cheese isn’t cooked correctly because they used too much cheese and sauce. Their sauce tasted good and was seasoned well, but very watery. Because of this, the flour used and because they cook their pizza on a screen instead of directly on the stone, the crust was undercooked and soggy. Leonardi’s slice has the perfect balance of sauce and cheese, and the thin crust crunches with every bite. This is a rare quality, you have to try it to see how well they perfected their crust. The sauce is not watery, and it is seasoned better. It has a more authentic Brooklyn flavor. Leonardi’s charges $3.25 for their plain slices, while Competitor A charges $4.00. Seriously people, don’t punish yourselves. Spoil yourself with the best pizza in town and save the 75 cents. My last point: Chris and Amanda are GOOD people. Their energy and hospitality shines, they make you feel welcome and their store & kitchen are spotlessly clean. If you want attitude and a belly ache, try Competitor A. You’ll be back to Leonardi’s.

Leonardi’s is the spot!! Grown from an in-house pie shop to full on restaurant this pizza doesn’t miss. Their New York-style pizza is chef’s kiss! Thin, crispy, and cooked to perfection every time. They’ve got enough slice choices to fill your belly and keep you coming back for more. The vibe inside is effortlessly cool, with a welcoming staff that makes you feel right at home. It’s the kind of place where you come for the food and end up staying to chat with the locals. A true neighborhood gem with heart, flavor, and good energy.

The owners Amanda in the front with her husband Chris in the back of the house deliver delicious, quality pizza! The crust could use a bit more time to be perfectly crispy and the sauce is a touch too thick ... heavy around the edges where it was too concentrated with a strong tomato paste flavor, but so sparse in the middle so there wasn't a good consistent balance of flavor throughout. Happy that this is truly a "large" size pie! The way to tell a good crust is when there is no sauce, cheese or topping...this fell a bit flat on its own, needing a touch of olive oil and salt and cutting back a bit on the sauce as it was too salty with pepperoni. Overall I give them a solid 4 stars! I love that they offer a specialty, limited-time pie, currently pickle. I can't wait as I hear vodka pie will be coming soon! But don't count on mushroom at the moment...the topping choices are limited.

The Pizza hear is real authentic NY style. Kris cooks every pie to perfection. They are using fresh ingredients and make each with attention to detail. This is a must stop pizzeria whether you want a slice or a whole pie. Kris and Amanda are awesome they are doing everything right and care about everyone's experience. Pizzas are amazing the tomato pie is exceptional with the fried garlic toppers. Ask for the fried garlic on any slice it adds another layer of flavor to any slice. The pesto was great on the tomato pie as well. The grandma pies are so crispy and delicious. The white pies are delicious too. You can't go wrong with any of the pies here. I would put this pizza up against anyone else in the state it is that good. Give them a try even if they are busy it will be more than worth the wait. Grab a slice while you wait for your pie.

My high expectations were certainly met by coming to Leonardi’s! This is a no-nonsense slice shop that only serves pizza, in the exact way I like it- Brooklyn Style. Thin crust, with a good crisp but still has chew to it, and they take pride in the fresh ingredients. I knew it was going to be amazing when I saw the menu and it was just a small selection of pizza. They don’t have wings or subs or salads, they only serve pizza and you can buy it by the slice which I love. I cannot wait to go back and try all of the varieties but this time I had the plain and the grandma slice “dressed” with ricotta oil and parm. I can’t recommend the grandma slice any higher, it was a 10/10. Next time I’ll get the tomato slice and the white slice.

Finally got to try the pizza I’ve been following on Instagram 🤩 I got the tomato pie and never had before it was amazing with a touch of heat and garlic. I was able to try a sample of grandma’s pie pieces of fresh basil and dusting of Parmesan Reggiano on tomato and mozzarella square pie you are definitely getting Quality ingredients. If you love a thin pizza with a golden bottom this is the place! I will definitely have to go back and get a few varieties of slices to try out.

Heading back north for a few months and had to get my pizza and Leonardi’s … NY style at its finest. The taste is authentic and fresh .. I will be dreaming of my return !!! I have lived in North Palm Beach for 25 years always searching for NY style pizza . Growing up in Long Island , having great pizza was taken for granted . I have tried all of the Pizza restaurants in the area and Leonardi’s is absolutely great . The ingredients are fresh and my slice was simply heaven . Nice people behind the counter and Chris the owner is very passionate about his Pizza. No need to look any further as Leonardi’s is now on my list and I can’t wait to order again !!!

This is a take out review… As avid pizza lovers, we have to say—this new hot spot is the real deal! Leonardi’s is serving up some seriously legit pies with fresh ingredients, a one-of-a-kind sauce, and crispy crust that hits just right. The basil and crispy garlic is simply fantastic, and the servings are HUGE—so big, in fact, that our only complaint is the pizza box won’t fit in the fridge! 😂 We’re still debating whether the Brooklyn or the Tomato Pie takes the top spot… which means we’ll just have to keep coming back for more. Keep it coming, Leonardi’s! 🤙🏼

We love this place! My husband's office is around the corner and you don't have to twist his arm to bring home a pie! The service is fantastic, staff personable and even though a pie is pricey, you can tell that the ingredients and attention make it worth every cent. The menu is well thought out and really inspires me to try new things. This place can be quite busy on the weekends, so expect the possibility of waiting a while for a pie...for which you will be handsomely rewarded. While waiting, try a specialty slice!

I found Leonardi's Pizza, North Palm Beach when I was on vacation with the family in Palm Beach Gardens. It was the last night of the trip and we were looking for something quick because we didn't want to cook. I did some investigation (YELP) and found this place, which was just located about 6-7 miles to the north of where we were staying. We got 2 cheese pizzas (18"). I loved the whole experience. The bar in the front of the shop was unique....serving pizza and beer for about 6 customers or so. The art on the walls. A couple of people waiting outside for their pizza. The workers were very social and engaging. The pizza did not take long since I ordered ahead. cheese and sauce were both great crust was perfect....little garlic taste was nice.....I noticed the cook using a thermometer to constantly measure oven and pizza temp. We loved the pizza and will definitely be back next April! Glad we found it....it will be become a staple in a pizza rotation! Parking- easy, lots of spots Vibe- cool, easy going Price- fair and going rate Service- fantastic! Thank you PS: I cannot find the pics that I took! I know I had 3 pics....one of the pizza, one of the exterior of the shop and one of the bar!

Hot Honey Pizza The hot honey pizza is so excellent! The service is good but it's a pizza place, so the food is the main focus. The ambiance is usual for a pizza place, the food is what makes this place good. More than anything, try the.. Hot, honey, pizza!!

Soooooo delicious!! So excited to have found my new go-to pizza spot! Leonardi's offers a hip vibe once you enter the shop , and they make a wickedly delicious pizza! I love their Brooklyn Pie & cannot wait to try their dill pickle pie. Service is good but they're pretty busy so if you're picking up I would recommend calling ahead!

HOLY F*%K! I don't usually get fired up about pizza around town. It's mostly "fine" or "decent". There are a couple Neapolitan pizza restaurants that I enjoy...no disrespect...THIS is far and away the best NY style pizza in Palm Beach County. (And it's not close). Fun vibe...the patrons were excited talking about the different slices they were ordering. The staff was excited because of how busy they were and taking pics of the line out the door. It's worth the drive and any wait you might have during your stop. If the quality stays like this, they will need a larger location by next season. Do yourself a favor and come try the best pizza in the Jupiter, No Palm, Gardens, WPB, area.

Came highly recommended, first by my boyfriend and then so many others after. Finally, found time to make it here and it did not disappoint! Closest pizza I've found to NY style. Will definitely be back.

When someone in the industry recommends a new place for you to try, you try it. As expected, Leonardi's hit the spot. I stopped in for a slice at lunch and received a quick and warm welcome. There were a variety of classic or adventurous slices to choose from, but I picked the burrata. I took a seat at the bar and a few short minutes later had a hot slice with a generous portion of shaved parm atop. The slice had the perfect portion of sauce, cheese, and heat from the chilis. As one who typically prefers a super thin crust, this still had a perfect crunch. Will definitely be back to have another slice and plan to grab a whole pie for the family soon.

Really really good pizza. These guys know what they're doing. Limited menu but if you just want great pizza, this is the spot.

Delicious. A diamond of a place. There are so many pizza places around and it's hard to know what's good. I highly recommend Leonardi's. We ordered a large cheese pizza and ate inside the restaurant. We will be back.

We tried Leonardi's for the first time and were seriously impressed, hands down the best pizza in the area! After living here for years and trying just about every local spot, we both agreed this is our new go-to.

We ordered 4 pies and had heard good things about them. We ordered 1 Tomato Pie, a Brooklyn Pie, Pepperoni and a plain. They forgot the pepperoni, so we ended up with 2 plain, not sure if we were charged or not. The Tomato Pie was very good. Sauce had a very heavy garlic taste. Could've gone for more pecorino on it, but overall very good. The Brooklyn Pie was excellent. Toppings were fresh and tasted great. The plain pies were very good. Cheese was good quality and the perfect amount of sauce. All of the pies had a good crust that was crisp. We really wanted to try the grandma pie, but were told it was too early to order a grandma pie. Would go back and maybe try some slices.

Easily the best pizza in South Florida. Most pizza places are extremely inconsistent. You get EXACTLY what you pay for here. I love sending people here because they never disappoint

BEST PIZZA AROUND! Each slice impressive in their own way. Can't decide which is my favorite between the Burrata Slice and the Tomato Slice. The regular and grandma slices are classic! Absolutely Perfect. Great fresh ingredients. Crisp crust. Absolutely zero flop. And fair prices per slices. Will always come here when I'm on the mood for a slice. Worth it to come from near and far.

Wow, must try!!! Where's Dave Portnoy to try this out? This pizza is authentic, delicious and made well. Probably one of the best pizzas in south Florida. The staff is super nice as well. Such a cool vibe in the shop too! You have to get the homemade ranch and the homemade hot honey. Both so so good! We will be back for sure!

Don't question it, just come here and try the pizza. Some of the best pizza I've had in the area, even better the next day when heated up.. The restaurant itself is small but cute. They also work with a local bottle shop and sell some really awesome wine options. Yes all around

Best NYC style slice in North Palm Beach County. I love the simplicity of the menu & I can't wait to try every slice. Great service & great pizza.

New place, right near the top of the list w Ah-Beetz and Grimaldi's. Very good. The owners are cool too. Grandma slice is awesome, regular slice is fantastic. Hope Portnoy gets there soon.

The pizza is very great! The location has a cool vibe and good music. Slices sell out fast so make sure you get them while they last. You can definitely taste the quality ingredients and the love for pizza!

New favorite pizza spot! We got a plain pie, Dressed Up (Piped Ricotta, Romano, Reggiano, EVOO, Fresh Basil) and added a pesto swirl. It was the perfect topping to crust ratio. I loved the small piped ricotta on top. Really good crust. 10/10 pizza. We will definitely be back for more!

have lived in North Palm Beach for 25 years always searching for NY style pizza . Growing up in Long Island , having great pizza was taken for granted . I have tried all of the Pizza restaurants in the area and Leonardi's is absolutely great . The ingredients are fresh and my slice was simply heaven . Nice people behind the counter and Chris the owner is very passionate about his Pizza. No need to look any further as Leonardi's is now on my list and I can't wait to order again !!!

It's perfect every single time Every pizza is perfection. The staff is so nice and welcoming. And the restaurant is such a cool vibe-makes you wanna come back.

THIS IS IT, best pizza in South Florida. I'm not kidding the crust is something special and it's a difference maker. The entire pizzeria is intentional, from the dining space to the bathrooms you can tell the owners care about every detail. Back to the food, UNREAL. I tried almost everything they offer and it was 10 out of 10 out of 10. The house made ranch is phenomenal and their slices are perfect. I wish I lived closer because I would eat here 3/4 times a week. If you're familiar with the palm beach post pizza ratings, I've tried them all and they're nothing compared to Leonardi's. In today's world where you expect to pay $5 for a slice, you're paying $3.25 here for the best cheese slice you can find in South Florida. Their other slices with toppings were affordable as well. Not only is this place amazing, it's cheap too. If you are thinking of trying it go now!! It's worth the drive.

This place is awesome!!! It's so cute and clean, the staff is friendly and the pizza is incredible!!! We can't wait to go back!

Our pizza was so good! The hot honey and homemade ranch were great additions! Definitely recommend! The pizzas were huge by the way.

I've heard good things about this place and decided to pick up a couple of pizzas today. The server was very friendly and helpful and the pizza was really good! The whole pies are gigantic, too. Nice crust, perfect cheese to crust to sauce ratio. I ordered the pizzas for carry out and they were ready right at the estimated time. Highly recommend this new place!

Absolutely blown away by Leonardi's Pizza in North Palm Beach! Hands down, the best pizza in Florida and I don't say that lightly. I've been on the hunt for authentic New York style pizza in Palm Beach County for years, and Leonardi's has finally delivered the real deal. From the perfect thin, foldable crust to the deliciously balanced sauce and gooey cheese, everything about their pizza is spot on. You can tell they use high quality ingredients, and the flavor takes me right back to the Northern style pizza I loved as a kid. The staff is friendly, the place is clean, and the vibe is just right no frills, just great pizza made by people who know exactly what they're doing. If you've been searching for authentic NY style pizza, classic Sicilian, or just the perfect slice, your search ends at Leonardi's Pizza. It's a must visit for any true pizza lover in South Florida.

Food was good small portions but good flavor parking on site wait staff friendly and polite. Good pizza. Nice crowd of people will definitely go back ...

We ordered for the first time tonight as we are trying to discover our new favorite pizza in town. The thoughtful gal at the front called to let us know the original quoted time estimate was a little off because they suddenly got busy. She certainly didn't have to do that. She even offered me a glass of wine because I was going to have to wait 10 minutes, again, so kind! The pizza was excellent! You made 3 hungry boys very happy tonight! Thank you- we'll be back!

Definitely the best pizza around. You can't go wrong with any of the pies he makes. The space is smaller but a super cool vibe. They also have good wine and beer options. You won't be disappointed.

Great ambiance, cool staff, and amazing pizza!! The pizza came out really quick too. Definitely new favorite pizza spot .

Finally a great pizza! Quick, delicious and priced fairly. I love this spot!!!! Small but adequate seating.

If you're from New York or want an authentic taste of it this is the new place to go in Palm Beach County. Not just another "New York slice" joint, this place would be more popular than others even in the city. Perfect tender/crunch balance, no flop and great ingredients. The Buratta slice was delicious and the Calabrian chili influence was not too spicy. New favorite!

Finally New York style Pizza in Palm Beach!!!! Leonardi's is unbelievably good. Thin, crispy, fresh ingredients and you can tell how passionate the owner is. Can't ask for much more. Best pizza around by far!

There Pizza is absolutely perfect. The place is going to be a great success. Looking forward to going back. Word of mouth is the best advertising, and Leonardi's Pizza is something worth talking about.!!!

this place is so cute! the decor is adorable and the vibes are really chill. the employees are really friendly! the pizza was delicious, thin, hot, and crispy!!! yum
