" I have hosted possibly too many events in this last decade, and I can tell you without doubt I have never come across a more professional, thoughtful, more pleasant, and more in-tuned staff than at Leonard’s Palazzo. It was hands on the best decision that we made. Our guests raved about the food, the cleanliness of the establishment and the welcoming of the staff. We had a guest list of 100 people - and there were no complaints. Even at the end of the function- when it was raining- our guests had no issues with valet. I would 1000000% choose Leonard’s Palazzo again if I were doing another event! Thank you again! Khalilah and Travon"
