    I have been coming to your bar since you opened and I have been constantly impressed by your attention to detail. Last night, we celebrated my son's birthday, and once again, you outdid yourself. Thank you for making an evening we will never forget.

    Small setting with detail oriented service of unique cocktails we haven’t experienced before. Cocktail curators are happy to share the ideas behind each Japanese inspired creation. Not a place to dine but the review wouldn’t allow me to leave blank. Plenty of dining options around this Autry Park location. You won’t be disappointed if you enjoy unique cocktail experiences.

    Leo's is just gorgeous the service is delightful and helpful the chef can be heavy handed with the salt in fact our table ordered scallops and sent them back as unedible (too salty) the kitchen hastily remade that order and they were beautiful these things happen the prices are VERY high so most likely this will be a special occasion place for most people at the time of our reservation the crowd was sparse (more folks arrived later) and whoever decides where to seat the guest decided to put us right next to a well lit and bustling waiter station----was NOT cool nor did that add to the ambiance for us not appreciated at all

    Overall nice dining experience. Room was comfortably filled but didn’t appear loud like so many restaurants. Easy to converse without raising voices. Holiday menu was great, nice selections not on the normal menu. Well prepared, and saved room for the flan and Christmas mousse
