    Everything was great, but limited menu - very little seafood.

    Perfect spot for Thanksgiving dinner. The food and service was excellent. One of the nicest things was that they did not rush us through this meal. We had four courses over 3 1/2 hours and nobody ever hurried us. The noise level here has improved since the last time I was here — thanks to some noise absorbing tiles on the ceiling.

    My wife and I were meeting up with some friends who we've not seen in a while, so (probably needless to say) we were very busy catching up, but Austin, our server, was perfect in allowing us the time to do so comfortably while being attentive to the ebb and flow of the evening. Once we got rolling on the meal, everything was delightful - from the opening cocktails to the salads, on to the entrees and dessert, there was not one misstep. This is an excellent spot for special occasions, but if we lived closer, I think this would probably a frequently visited place - we'll definitely be back and encourage others on the Cape to check out Leonessa - it's worth a drive!

    Food was very good and was rushed to the table just as it was ready. A little loud in the main dining room though.
