Perhaps the best omelette I've ever had in a diner. They are cooked slowly and come out tasting almost like a custard. The food is fresh and handled with care. The service is great and I really like the people who work there. The fruit salad is just beyond. I also suggest the Duduk pancakes. They are always playing great tunes. Also, the place has nice natural lighting and very much "feels" like a real dinner. I don't bother getting breakfast anywhere else in the Boston area because it won't be better than Leo's.

Ate here after a very early morning of traveling to Boston from the Midwest, and it was exactly what we were looking for. The food was cooked perfectly and in a timely manner and was delicious. The restaurant vibe was chill and comfortable for a rainy Sunday morning.

Classic greasy spoon diner with Turkish twist. It's a bit pricier but they make everything fresh and are consistent about it. Fast friendly service, can't really go wrong. I recommend the Challah French toast.

When you can smell a place before you're even in the door, I consider that a good sign. Does the interior look unchanged since the '70's? Sure, but don't you dare suggest that they change a thing. The vibe, and the room full of diners, tell you you're in the right place.The portions are huge; I had the special chorizo bennie, and the sausage was nicely spiced, with perfectly diced green bell pepper lurking in the sauce. Redskin potato homefries are a well appreciated treat -for sure, these are no Sysco potatoes. The bennie came on what my resident expert called a "bulkie"- basically large soft sandwich roll. Doesn't hold up well for reheated leftovers, but what are ya gonna do? Cranberry pancakes were also a hit with our table.

Maybe this place is great for breakfast? I had business in Waltham, and Leo's had pretty good reviews. Not crowded at 11:30. But the whole street was kind of dead. The place had a sour smell, and I almost left, but the reviews were good so I stayed. The place is charming, but it's old and could use a deep cleaning. Waiter (Owner? Manager?) was good enough. Several lunch sandwich options. I really wanted something hot, so I got the shredded Philly steak sandwich. Nota bene: this is not a cheesesteak, as the word "cheese" is not mentioned, nor is it present on the sandwich. There's also a note that onions, peppers, and something else are available for *$.75* *each*. I didn't do extras - should have. Maybe should have asked about the mysterious lack-of-cheese-ness for what is clearly labeled "Philly". All this because...there was absolutely no flavor. Zero. It's like I ordered the Flavor-Free special. So bummed. Fries were fresh and crispy. A salad I did not want nor eat. Again, maybe it's great for breakfast. I hope so.

This place is cozy. The service was great the owner of this place is a nice man. He spoke to us and told us a story about the band that photo he has on the wall. The food tasted good. I like how everything on the menu has its unique name. I love when people put the effort into what they are doing. I ordered Shroomister Omelet and Romeo & Juliet French Toast. Everything was delicious.

This place was amazing. Great staff and the food was simply amazing. The waitress talked me through the menu and gave me her recommendations. I went with the French toast platter and it did not disappoint. I recommend arriving early as the seats do fill up quick.

Excellent breakfast and brunch establishment with many of food selections, many of which are good. I'll start by stating that this location is fairly crowded, particularly on weekends around midday. They regrettably do not accept reservations. As a result, we waited far longer than was necessary. However, it took twice as long as the hostess anticipated, largely because so many people were hanging there and buying beverages hours after eating. Not the restaurant's responsibility, but at least have some decency to hurry it along if you see there is huge wait behind you.The breadth of options on the menu impressed me. Everything was nice, and the food came out reasonably fast, however the amounts were little. At the sum that was paid, I had hoped much more. Perhaps it was only the two items I happened to order, given there are conflicting remarks about serving sizes here. Despite everything, the food was delicious, and the restaurant is a great place to meet up with friends because of its atmosphere and fantastic menu.
