We must've meant to find them (Puerto Rico is close to our hearts as we said goodbye to our Puerto Rican brother almost 2 years ago). Leo's was very welcoming, had good margaritas and delicious Puerto Rican/Mexican fusion offerings for entrees. We all had something different, and it was all very tasty. To top it off, the flan was to die for! First timers but we will be back.

I initially thought they were a Cuban place (given that a Cuban is the first thing on the menu) but no; they do Puerto Rican food. And they do it really well. First time around, I *did* order that Cuban. If you haven't had this before, it is an odd mix; cheese, ham, mustard(?), panini bread, pork, and... a dill pickle? Yeah, this works, and the reason it works is because of the lechon: the most seasoned, flavorful, tender, and moist pork I've had in a long time. I could order it separately and bring my own Mang Tomas sauce and dip it, it's that good. I also got a side of madruros (fried sweet plantain) which was delicious. They will make patacones but I don't think they had any unripe plantain today. This was all so good that I came in again after I learned they wrap sandwiches in plantains. Of course I was going to try this. The jibarito was delicious. Toothy-tender plantain as bread is a winner, it turns out. I got ropa vieja, and the beef was shredded, tender, and moist. It was served with a ridiculous amount of Puerto Rican rice, which... I'd never had before, but liked a lot. Service was friendly, although I wish there were pictures to go with the menu. (I would've gotten a jibarito the first time and to be honest I'll probably never get another main). Plenty of places to sit, and the seats are comfortable. As a bonus you'll hear a lot of Latin American hits over the speaker.

I also ordered the pistachio cheesecake which was a bit fence for me but the subtle flavor is what I like.
