I went with my family today to the Leona's in rogers park. When we walked in I noticed it was fairly empty, and no hostess. After waiting to be seated 15mins we were never attended so we left. Horrible service.
1Leona's restaurant is the best restaurant in the history of the world! The food is mind blowing! Now, when you first go in, you may be a bit shocked by the decor. But beleive me, on a cold winter's day, it does not look more inviting! If you ever go there try the cake, any of them are good, and buy the whole thing, you won't regret it!

I love Leona's (and not just beause my name is Leona :) )
They have excellent food at a reasonable price! Not only that, the last time we went we had our 3 & 6 year olds, and they sat us in an area that wasn't crowded, had a tv and even put Nickolodeon on for the kids. You truelly can't beat that kind of service!
PROS: Great food, great service!!
CONS:

I have never had a bad meal at Leona's. My particular favorite dish is the Ravioli duo, where you can try out two different varieties of Ravioli and sauce. My husband has a tremendous appetite, and he remarked yesterday that Leona's is one of the very few restaurants where he can get full on quality food for under $20. The wait staff is friendly and more helpful than average for the Hyde Park area (which has notoriously slow service). I highly recommend this restaurant to all!
PROS: food, value

This Leonas has great food and also great customer service. The staff is really polite and customer service oriented. They're Bruchetta bread is awesome. I have nothing I dislike there.
5Two weeks ago while visiting family at LSTC in Hyde Park we had the good fortune to dine at Leona's. A cousin from W. Wisconsin called the night before to remind us, "Don't forget to eat at Leona's."
It was a muggy 88* night; everyone entering Leona's was told the air-conditioning had just gone 'kaput'. That didn't bother anyone; people kept arriving and the staff went out of their way to make sure everyone was comfortable. Every age group was represented along with casual to semi-formal attire.
It always takes me 'forever' to order at Leona's because their menu has such a large variety of choices. That evening, as in the past, I wasn't disappointed with my choices! The char-grilled veggies were superb! I only wish I'd had room for dessert!
UFF DA - TUSEN TAKK!!! 4 NW Minnesota Scandinavians enjoyed your [lovely] windy city!
