Leonardo's -pizzeria - SOLVANG

Great food. Service by Armando was excellent. Will return.

Great Italian food. Small family owned style restaurant.

This place was such a pleasant surprise! I’m so happy we discovered it. Our meal was so fresh my husband joked we should go back tomorrow. We started with the roasted beet salad with arugula, the freshest burrata, and crunchy pistachios on top and we thought with the fantastic bread we could just stop there and be satisfied. But we had to try one of the amazing pastas and opted for the short rib tortellini which did not disappoint- they were stuffed to the gills with meat, and the creamy vodka sauce was delicious. But then we opted for the delicate panna cotta and it topped off the meal perfectly. Sit at the bar and enjoy Juan’s delicious concoctions and fabulous service! We can’t wait to go back.

Honestly, for how fancy this place is I kind of expected a lot more. The pizza seemed more like an American pizza rather than a Neapolitan pizza. The dough was just thick and had very little flavor. The pasta was ok. Again, I thought it was good it just lacked bold flavor. The service was good and the atmosphere was nice I just wish the food matched the aesthetics.

Angie was an amazing server explaining the wonderful meals. Everyone is so friendly and the food is exceptional!!
