Leo's Pizza and Greek Taverna

Restaurant Pizza restaurant Greek restaurant

😠 We ordered delivery to our air b&b - calamari, spanokapedia, and a large chef special pizza. I worked in Greek restaurants for years and love supporting well known local places. The calamari was simply deep fried rubbery rings, no seasonings, no oregano, no flavour… just ick. Spanokepdia also see... People often mention good, pizza, service,

    0 Stars. BE CAREFUL! Broken shards of glass found in the food! Who knows how much we ate?! Called restaurant back and outright they refused to reimburse us for food which simply cannot be eaten. $100 worth of garbage. Will be calling health department, who knows what kind of operation these people are running if big shards of glass in your food doesn't phase them. Greasy AF. Avoid this place if you value your health.

    We ordered delivery to our air b&b - calamari, spanokapedia, and a large chef special pizza. I worked in Greek restaurants for years and love supporting well known local places. The calamari was simply deep fried rubbery rings, no seasonings, no oregano, no flavour… just ick. Spanokepdia also seemed like it was pre made somewhere, frozen and heated up. Both appetizers are better in the forzen section of Costco. The pizza was average at best, and that’s being generous. The phone person and delivery driver were pleasant. Sorry Leo’s but you were really disappointing.

    We had dinner there. It was ok, but lacked the real Greek flavour we are used too. Our server was very good and helpful with choices. My husband enjoyed his beef Souvlaki although the rice lacked flavour The Caesar salad lacked flavour and my veal Parmesan was good but, the vegetables were mundane and bland. All in all, the atmosphere was pleasant and we did enjoy our dinner

    Kitchen Management *****. Delivery time as expected. Nice Conflict resolution *****. I thought I lost all the sauce but it turned out to be DELICIOUS. Flavour ***** Different experience compared to the old Leo's, I think they've improved on an already excellent service. Well done!

    Bought a poutine and had to throw it away instantly, fry’s weren’t even cooked they were still hard. I’d rather eat cereal than comeback, every-time is a terrible experience. If I could rate this lower than a 1 star I would

    I am Brian Poohachoff,I worked for Alias many years ago. Sooooo happy to see the consistency stayed. Our waitress was awesome. We actually met her quite a few years ago. She is wonderful. Love love love Leo's

  • 3/5 Tish K. 2 years ago on Google
    Very small portions for the price usually for that price I would get two skewers. The tzatziki was lacking garlic flavor, the rice was very bland and plain. The only reason I'm giving three stars and not one is because the chicken was good and the food was fresh the salad was bordering on going bad though but it was still edible. No lemon potatoes though? What the hell?

    Food was good and the service was good as well. No complaints.

  • 4/5 Cheryl L. N. 8 months ago on Google
    Very good. Our server Joy was exceptionally nice and knew, just about without asking, what we all would like. Koodos

    A gem in Nelson. One of my favourite places to get pizza. The patio is covered and is a lovely space.

    Our server (didn't catch his name) was so great! Food was amazing and the atmosphere was excellent. Couldn't have asked for a better anniversary dinner. Thank you!

  • 5/5 Luke E M. 7 months ago on Google
    We came in here for our anniversary and absolutely loved it! Our server, Onya (i hope that's how you spell her name haha) was so helpful and friendly! My wife and I enjoyed our food and we will definitely becoming back!

  • 3/5 scott h. 1 year ago on Google
    I'm.a longtime fan of leos, always thought it was the greatest place ever . So I go there and the menu was small and really didn't have the great selection it use to. The Kalahari was good the Greek salad was excellent. The other people with me said the food was mediocre at best ... its unfortunate and will try somewhere else when I go to Nelson

    Very good Corfu Platter for 2. We also ordered Calamari; very crispy and non-oily but they were fairly cooled down when we got them

  • 4/5 Mike H. 1 year ago on Google
    Ravioli and pizza good. Great credit system and service if a mistake is made👍

  • 3/5 Aaron A. 1 year ago on Google

  • 5/5 Dan C. 1 year ago on Google
    Fantastic place for a bite to eat. Friendly and accommodating staff. Great lasagna and chicken fingers.

  • 5/5 Amanda T. 3 years ago on Google
    This place was delicious. Baked pastas are fresh tasting and huge portions. Caesar salad had super good homemade dressing. Ranch dressing was also fantastic. Service and menu size were great. Decor and atmosphere was a little lacking but the food more than made up for that. This is a hidden gem off the main drag in Nelson.

    We had the dinner for 2 and it is worth it! The dolamites are really delicious and the salad was beyond generous.

  • 5/5 Rocky B. 2 years ago on Google
    Very nice restaurant. Just ordered a pizza to go but was ready in 20 mins and service was awesome. If we can we will be back for a sit down dinner. Thank you

    Its a huge resturant, it was pretty busy lots of places to sit. Service was good, I found the resturant to be comfortable but i did note it was quite cold (Lots of people were wearing their jackets inside.) Portions were generous we had Greek Souvlaki and Lamb chops. The environment was also family friendly as there were lots of young children there

    Can't believe I've driven past Leo's for 3 years and have never been. It's fantastic! Amazing pasta dishes with real flavour, pizza is dynamite and their salads and garlic bread are excellent. Large portions! I will be back often now that I know. I have my eye on their huge spanikopita or a meatball sandwich for next time

  • 5/5 Clay P. 2 years ago on Google

😐 A unique shopping experience with a good selection of goods. But bring lots of $$$ as it's easily the most expensive grocery store in the area. Lots of overpriced merchandise for those with piles of disposable income.
