When we got there the valet parking was a little backed up but they took the car and off it went and we went right in for our reservations a gorgeous table in the corner are server was kind and knowledgeable. I had the tuna with wasabi and it was cooked to perfection with a puree of parsnip underneath it was delicious. My wife had the pasta dish and she thoroughly enjoyed it what a great place to go for a date night on 6A read more

This is the best meal I've had in a while! Everything was so good! From the cocktails, to the starters, to our meals! There are several vegetarian options. The ambiance was dark and cozy. Our server was nice (our water glasses did get empty twice thought). The prices were reasonable. There's complimentary valet. And make sure to make reservations, which is super easy to do online! read more

I love this Resturant!! It's brand new on cape cod. Most restaurants are featuring fried seafood, fries and lobster rolls. That's what a lot of vacationers want. So it's very hard to find a restaurant that offers fresh ingredients (a lot grown on site) in an Italian nouveau style. Cocktails are creative and varied. I had a rye martini type of drink that is almost like a Manhattan but with subtle flavors of rhubarb. Homemade bread was served with an tomato hummus that was delicious. The beet salad was delicious with fresh mint and herbs. The burrata was as creamy as can be with amazing tomatoes. I had the zucchini goat cheese appetizer for my entree and enjoyed it so much. My husband got the steak in a French style that was cooked perfectly. Thank you Lionessa for providing creative delicious cuisine. read more

The food and ambiance are excellent. Every food dish is done with a flourish and full of flavor. The chef is extremely talented. From the valet parking to the well adorned but simple decor, the restaurant is welcoming. Every pasta is made in-house, and you can't go wrong with any of them. The spaghetti with clams were great. The cavatelli is delicious. The rice balls were fried lightly and were greaseless. The veal was tender and shareable. The desserts were a nice finish to the meal. The ownership is only four months old, so they need to get a few kinks out of the service as this two story restaurant has several dining rooms and coverage can be spotty, but the effort to close this gap is there. Go as the trip is worth it. Oh, the have a pizza oven that is not yet in use, but my bet is that this will be a plus. read more

Food great, but rich. Service professional. Ambiance, really difficult to hear. Already booked to return.

Leonessa was amazing--best on the Cape. I had the skirt steak and it was insanely good, top-tier meal.

I'm a foodie and I definitely like to go out some nice restaurants that have welcoming atmospheres. So after living on Cape Cod for the last 20 years, I have my pics of places that I go to in Italian food is definitely one of them. I kept hearing about this place and I ended up one night stopping by and I was really amazed with their food and their presentation of the food . The service is great. It's a small little restaurant which has a little bar area to eat along with a little dining area and they open space relaxing dining area. . I would highly recommend making a reservation sometimes when I just come by and try to find a seat at the bar it's a little hard cause it's always busy . Now being an Italian place, I always have to try there. Spaghetti Bolognese and I was definitely imp. Also, their stuff oysters was really delicious. . So if you ever in the area, I highly recommend this place you would not be disappointed read more

The food was amazing. I had the pork and hubby had the duck. When delivered to the table , we all gasped...the presentation was beautiful. Service was impeccable, even though the restaurant was full. Richard, the manager, floats around inobtrusively to make sure all runs smoothly. We were seated in a corner, as requested, but the noise level was still substantial. I think this is just something expected. Our desserts were sumptuous; berry bowl with gelato, whipped creme and Lyle's syrup drizzled over it.....and the other was a decadent chocolate cake oozing with more chocolate inside. This is going to be our go-to for special occasions. read more

We had a lovely dinner! Thank you for making my birthday so special! The food and service were wonderful. Can't wait to come back!

Such an incredible experience this past weekend! The Cape was in need of a spot like this. We were celebrating a girlfriend's 40th and Leonessa delivered! Everything from the vibe (classy & city-ish), to the crowd (it was packed), to the service (exceptional & never rushed) and the food (every bite) exceeded expectations. We were the very last to leave for a reason - we soaked up every minute! This will be my new go-to for every occasion. Well done! read more

The food was fantastic the service was excellent. The chicken on a brick was very tender and the mushroom pastry was tasty.

Well, I accidentally made our reservation for the following evening and when we arrived it looked like our dinner would not happen. Thank you to the very gracious staff for quickly finding us a cozy table. The service was great, attentive yet not overbearing, the drinks were clever and delicious and the food was amazing! Probably the best bolognese I have ever had. Could not have asked for a better experience. Free valet parking was quick and friendly as well. Would highly recommend if you want a really nice dinner out. Put Leonessa on your must visit list! read more

Leonessa was fantastic! Cozy but modern atmosphere. We stopped in for appetizers and cocktails, and everything was delicious. Our server was the absolute best--she helped us pick out her favorite appetizers and recommended their Cosmos, which she said were the best on the Cape. She was right--they were outstanding! Great food, amazing drinks, and wonderful service. read more

Upscale all the way, dinner for one was presented with much charm and in a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere. Thank you to my wonderful server, his suggestions were spot on.

Feast your eyes, please come and enjoy the very best dining in a pretty well appointed Cape Cod home restaurant. read more

The valet parking was great. The receptionist was great. The wait staff was outstanding. The food was terrific and very hot . The noise level was terrible. We almost left but decided to stick it out. It ruined what should have been a total 5* night. For many years I did "noise control" and it is not an impossible task to take care of. Save your restaurant. read more

Top restaurant on Cape Cod. We have dined here on multiple occasions and the food and service are splendid

Nice addition to the Cape! We loved everything we ate here, ravioli special, pork chop and haddock. Cocktails were creative and delicious, with a few NA choices which were great too. Restaurant is cozy and cute, with a few different dining areas that all looked nice. Our server Brian was really good and fun to talk to. We can't wait to go back. read more

Six of us went to Leonessa last night to celebrate a wedding anniversary for one couple and to celebrate my birthday. This is the fourth time I have been here, and everything was perfect! We sat upstairs in a cozy cubby and it was busy but not noisy. Before dinner we all had wine or a cocktail and the wine list was truly impressive. For entrees, two of us had Chicken Under a Brick, one had the massive pork chop, one the Veal Milanese, one pesto pasta and I had Gemelli in Ragu. All of the entrees were generous portions and everyone at the table was very happy or thrilled with their delicious selections. After dinner we shared Tiramisu and cannolis and a nice touch was the birthday candle on the Tiramisu. They also remembered to congratulate the anniversary couple. To top it off, the young woman from Kosovo who was our server was truly special. Her radiant smile (that reminded me of Alicia Keyes), her engaging demeanor and wonderful service just added to the feeling we all had that we had just enjoyed a very special evening at a special place. I hope somebody from the restaurant notes this review and passes along to our server how much we appreciated her. In the end, I can't wait to return to Leonessa! read more

I had dinner at Leonessa for the first time last night and I'm so glad that I tried it! Everything was exceptional - cocktails, wine, appetizers, and my strozzapreti was absolutely delicious! Even the bread and olive tapenade that they served before the meal was excellent! I'm not really a dessert person but the description of the cheesecake forced my hand and it was just as light and delectable as described. In addition to the fabulous food was an attentive and friendly staff including our waiter Brian, who was knowledgeable about everything on the menu along with the wine. After last night's experience, I will definitely be a repeat customer at this truly exceptional establishment! read more

This was our second visit. The food is consistently excellent. Unfortunately, the service from Mike was upsetting. I think he had a bad day & was not welcoming or pleasant. He had a caustic edge. We felt dismissed. Mike was not attentive or in the least bit enjoyable If we go again I will definitely request a different waiter. read more

Tonight my wife and I took her sister to Leonessa to celebrate her birthday. This was our first time here and it was outstanding. I was worried about parking but the valet service was great. When we entered we were greated warmly, seated immediately and the ambience was cozy and inviting. As an app we shared calimari and it was some of the best I have ever had and it went great with the Rose wine we all had. For entrees, my wife had Chicken under a brick and my sis-in law and I had Lumachine. All were generous portions and delicious. The service was also excellent. Although just a tad pricey, this place is a gem and we look forward to returning. read more

The food was great. Our server was good. I made the reservation for our 40th wedding anniversary 3 weeks early. In the reservation I mentioned it was our anniversary. When we checked in I again mentioned it was our anniversary. So they sat us next to the restrooms. We went there as some place special, obviously they didn't return the feeling. read more

Exactly what is expected from a fine dining experience. Complimentary valet was a great service. We made reservations and had a great server. Excellent wine selection that will meet anyone's pallet and wallet needs. We ordered appetizers and entrees.

Definitely the place to be in the cape if you are looking for fine dining read more

Excellent service-faultless. Strossapretti with beef & veal ragu was outstanding. I couldn't stop eating it. It was hearty & richly flavored. Perfect on a chilly night. Unfortunately, Spaghetti Vongole--although the pasta was well cooked, the sauce was watery & lacked flavor. read more

Exceptional Italian food with a twist! The atmosphere is casual Cape Cod but nice enough for a special occasion. The server was knowledgeable and attentive. Everything was delicious and beautifully presented! We agreed it was the best meal we've had on Cape Cod and can't wait to go back to try the pizza!
