Leo

Leo was founded by a group of partners that included Gavin Compton of Variety Coffee, Mike Fadem, Joey Scalabarino, and Thomas Trout of Ops. The restaurant has 70 seats and a more extensive menu while still focusing on pizza. Pasta, including a vegetarian lasagna, salads, soft serve, and tiramisu for dessert will also be available. There is a spacious bar area, and in the warmer months, there are plans for sidewalk seating. Guests can begin a tab at the bakery and then proceed to the restaurant, or they can pick up a loaf of bread on their way home for morning toast. On Friday, December 6, at 5 p.m., the full-service restaurant will open.

At Leo, wine is a big component of the experience. Guests will be able to grab a bottle of natural wine labeled with prices from the dining room's two wine fridges and open shelving. Servers help customers find the right wine for them by pouring samples and asking questions. Because of this structure, the list changes regularly, satisfying both curiosity and consistency. There will be beer and beverages available as well.
