My son brought us to this place for a late breakfast... wonderful food drinks and service... bacon strips were more like bacon steak! Mmmmmmmm..bacon
Nice place for lunch that offers something for everyone. Nice service minded staff.
Joseph Leonard offers a beautiful space and a commendable staff, creating a welcoming environment.
However, the overall dining experience fell short as the food lacked flavor, prompting us to send back one dish. Additionally, the cocktails were somewhat flavorless. Despite these shortcomings, the excellent service and appealing ambiance make it a place worth considering.
Charming spot on a corner - went here early on a sunny weekday morning. Just a nice classy vibe overall - worth checking out the photos from others.
For food, I wasn't starving and went for the breakfast sandwich - egg, cheese, jalapenos on a English muffin. No meat by default but I figured I'd give it a shot - maybe the spice would carry it to delicious victory. It looked like it was put together with love but unfortunately was pretty bland? Maybe not enough peppers or I should have added another protein. Next time I'll give the avocado toast a shot instead.
Wife got the mushroom croquet and that looked pretty great. Lots of cheese with a bed of mushrooms below. I regret not stealing a bite.
As for service, waitress was nice, but after attempting awkward eye contact for a while I did have to get up to get some ketchup since she was distracted. Not a big deal, place was quiet so I get it.
Looking forward to giving it another shot.
Delicious food in a cozy atmosphere. Alan is an inviting host whom I remember well. Love the cauliflower appetizer. The blue cheese complimented the steak well. I also enjoyed the roasted eggplant in the ratatouille!
Even in the city with so many places that offer great breakfast, Joseph Leonard stood out. Excellent care all the way through, even in their presentation. We tried coffee, hash browns, omelette and french toast and all were great! (The toast best of all). Plus, the place and staff are lovely.
100% yes. We went for brunch and got the cheeseburger and fried chicken sandwich. Both were so delicious, not a single thing I would change. The chicken was crispy and paired very well with the pickles. The burger was cooked perfectly to order, juicy, and came with dangerously addictive fries.
The ambiance was beautiful and quaint. It felt like a little hidden gem. Decor and vibe seemed natural and not a forced aesthetic.
The staff were all very polite and helpful.
I would love to go back asap!
A really great high end restaurant. Oh and the deviled eggs - please try the deviled eggs. Super tasty. All around a great classy meal.
We were visiting New York to meet up with a friend and came here for food and to catch up! Atmosphere is small but cozy and not too loud. Our waiter was very friendly and the service was good! We ordered the burger and chicken sandwich which came out nice and hot. Everything looked and tasted great. We ordered a slice of carrot cake and banana toffee cake. The carrot cake was moist and the frosting wasn’t too sweet. I really enjoyed the banana toffee cake, good toffee to banana ratio! I’m glad I stopped by; it was a good place to catch up with friends!
This was one of the first restaurants I ever went to in New York and I keep coming back. The food, service, and atmosphere are perfect - this is the quintessential New York Bistro.
The bistro standards: roast chicken and burger are must haves. While the rotating vegetable options are always delicious and surprising. There are usually off menu specials that are consistently great when I have them. The menu isn't huge but there is something for everyone and every diet.
It is a small space, so reservations are definitely useful, but you can luck out sometimes and snag a spot at the bar.
Extraordinary, cauliflower to start was the highlight. Off menu Moules Paris Level, the Burger delicious with perfect fries. The Banoffee cake unreal. Beautiful people, great music best servers. Now a favorite
