Join us for Sunday lunch with the best pastificio in the country, Burro E Salvia! Gaia and her team make superlative fresh pasta from her little space on Redchurch Street and we are incredibly excited to have her join us in the kitchen at Leo's We'll kick off with traditional antipasti to share. Expect platters of Giardiniera Rossa, Caponet & Peperone Arrosto stuffed with Salsa Tonnata before Gaia presents her iconic Plin. Delicate folded pastas stuffed with Sardinian Mustia Cheese & dressed in Bagna Càuda. For secondi; steaming Bollito Misto with all the traditional accoutrement. Nebbiolo will be the pour of the day with rustic & pure vino da tavola's joined by a cohort of hallowed bottles from the deepest reaches of our cellar.
Sunday set lunch
£42.00 per person
Multiple dates available
On Sundays we offer a family style set lunch in the restaurant priced at £42 per person. The menu changes weekly but will typically centre around a large porchetta roasted slowly over the wood fire surrounded by seasonal antipasti, pastas & contorni with our tiramisu to finish. We are more than happy to accommodate vegetarians and other dietary requirements, if you could select from the meat or vegetarian menu add ons when booking that would be greatly appreciated. Reservations on Sundays are for our Set Lunch Only while the more casual breakfast and lunch in the cafe is a walk ins only affair, so please feel free to just pop by if you wish to dine in the cafe. Thanks!
New Years Eve 2024
£70.00 per person
Prepaid
31 Dec 2024 only
New Years Eve at Leo's Join us as we usher in our second year on Chatsworth Road and toast the arrival of 2025! As ever the evening will split into two sittings, one early enough to move onto whatever gathering you may be attending, the later a fully fledged celebration in its own right. The menu will centre around beautiful large cuts of Galician beef cooked over the wood-fire with handmade pastas, pristine oysters & the obligatory winter truffles forming the opening acts. Washed down with a singular selection of grower champagnes that we are retrieving from the darkest corners of the cellar especially for the occasion!

Very warm and welcoming ambiance. Some of the dishes left much to be desired but the pastas was the star. Also loved the house soda!

This place was so cosy and excellent in every way, it felt like the times I was studying in Milan or so laid back like my hometown in Istanbul. We never reminded of time by waiters as they do in London very often and realised we spent 3 hours just enjoying the food, drinks, atmosphere and very quality time. Last night was so precious for me and I will be back!

An almost perfect restaurant experience. One note, corkage is £45, cheapest bottle is £43 and not very good. so pays to take a special bottle!

The food was truly delicious . The small pieces of pickled mackerel with Catabrian anchovies on cocktail sticks were the perfect way to wake up the tastebuds at the beginning of the meal, and the rest of the meal didn’t disappoint. Special shout out for the polenta, cheese and mushroom dish. Lip smackingly good. We were there on a Wednesday night and the ambiance was great. Friendly professional staff and not too noisy, so conversation was easy. Third visit, and it won’t be the last.

Finally made it to Leo’s and we were not disappointed! The staff were very friendly and welcoming as soon as we entered and accommodated a slight push back of our booking. The ambiance was very warm and relaxed, reminding us of restaurants from Lisbon or Paris, the lighting was warm and the music a perfect level. Drinks - I had a red vermouth and soda, my partner a Crodino, were delicious and quick to arrive. The bread and olive oil was a great kick off, really tasty and more oil was provided when requested. The leeks and pancetta with taleggio was amazing, so rich! Shortly after, the polenta with girolles arrived, this was creamy and well balanced to let the mushrooms lead the dish. The cuttlefish salad was refreshing and light then we had the two pasta dishes on menu. The rabbit ragu was deep with perfectly cooked pasta but the star of the meal was the porcini mushroom pasta - cooked to perfection, lots of flavour from the mushrooms and a buttery, rich dressing, absolutely unreal! Overall an amazing meal at Leo’s, worth the bill and the wait to go - we will be back soon!
