- SSusanHouston •35 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoLeo's is just gorgeous the service is delightful and helpful the chef can be heavy handed with the salt in fact our table ordered scallops and sent them back as unedible (too salty) the kitchen hastily remade that order and they were beautiful these things happen the prices are VERY high so most likely this will be a special occasion place for most people at the time of our reservation the crowd was sparse (more folks arrived later) and whoever decides where to seat the guest decided to put us right next to a well lit and bustling waiter station----was NOT cool nor did that add to the ambiance for us not appreciated at allMore infoLeo's River OaksPrice: Very Expensive• American• River Oaks•4.6

- MMonicaHouston •2 reviews4.0Dined on 9 Nov 2024The place is very chic - its very Gen Z / Mil-lineal but of course we are on our late 40’s already. Ambience and service is five star definitely. But food is mediocre. We all thought the chicken taste like a cut from a rotisserie chicken. But if you just want to enjoy company in a nice place,this is definitely a placeMore infoPostScript HTXPrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Southeast Houston•4.1
