I have been here before a few years ago and loved it, however, the food is not a good as it was my last visit. My husband and I ordered the tuna crudo and arugala salad to share, he had the risotto and I had the mussels. The risotto and the fries that came with the mussels were overly salty (the mussel broth was salty as well), the salad was overly drenched in dressing, very greasy. I think that these things could be greatly improved if they used 2/3 less salt and 2/3 less dressing. Seafood in general does not need that much salt. The ingredients seemed a quality standard but were ruined by heavy handed seasoning and dressing.

An incredible anniversary meal. Wish we could have ordered 5 other items on the menu, there were so many great things to choose. Such a beautiful restaurant and the staff was the best we have had in a long time. Our waiter at times was hosting, serving us and even making drinks at one point, all without missing a beat. We left just blown away by the service, ambiance, and definitely the food.

About half of the oysters had no brine like they were shucked and rinsed. Only table in a Friday night, sad…. Beautiful restaurant and excellent staff.

The service was horrible, and they took her food and drink before we were finished. The food was average, but not for the cost. We will not be going back.

We had such a great time at Leo’s! The atmosphere is amazing and the surf and turf was one of the best meals ever!

Love this place and had to go back and visit, since I’ve moved to LA recently. I was saddened to see the Friday night crowd it used to have has died down due to the larger SF issues post pandemic. It’s such a beautiful place with great service and the food quality remains to be outstanding. Go to Leo’s if you’re looking for a great place to have a night with visitors, coworkers or friends!

Another amazing meal at Leo’s Oyster Bar. The grand seafood tower was amazing! Highly recommend it. The bartender made amazing drinks and was fun to talk with.

Portions and quality were not as good as they were the time we visited before. Oysters were small, gritty, and expensive for the quality. Smaller portions and bigger price. The ambiance was harsher than before (lighting changed and it felt like last call at a bar). Service was a bit rude-our server was young and fine (she was doing fine), but a manager (some guy with dark hair and a smarmy/condescending attitude to her) told her to smile more and kept swooping in and undermining her. Not great
