“ So good I had to review. We visited on Christmas Eve and couldn’t have had a better time. Old school warm and attentive service and high quality, delicious food. My Mum is a vegan and struggles to find places to eat in Donny, but the chef and team were so accommodating and she really enjoyed her meal too. Will definitely be visiting again soon! ”
“ Italian restaurant in the centre of Doncaster. After 6pm you can park for 1 for the evening/ night at 2 minutes walk distance from the restaurant. Very wel trained staff running the restaurant, polite and funny. Red house wine is combining good with the beef. The beef is nicely presented in the restaurant. The main menu is chicken , fresh fish and beef. The vegetables or chips you have to choose.... It is more potatoes then vegetables if you go for “vegetables” that was the only minor point. I will be back ”
“ This is a hidden gem of a restaurant. Having been squeezed in for Father's Day, eight of us ate some excellent Italian food. My fillet steak was as good as any I have had, and looking down the table my family's food was equally special. You can see the meat they use in the restaurant, the pizza oven in action and can watch them making the pasta in the kitchen. Whilst we dont live in Doncaster my parents do and they said they would 100% go back with their friends (and they do not say that about anywhere new to them lightly!) I couldnt miss out the staff who were brilliant, from their phone manner to the table service, they were faultless. ”
“ I had an amazing experience with my friends at this Italian restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious, and the service was exceptional. Razvan, Denis, and another Romanian waiter( I can’t remember his name) took great care of our table, making sure we had everything we needed and felt comfortable throughout our visit. Their attention to detail and friendly attitude truly made a difference. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for authentic Italian cuisine and outstanding hospitality! ”
“ I haven’t reviewed a restaurant for a while but Da Leo definitely merits my time for a quick review. I wanted something simple and relatively fast to eat. I was pleasantly surprised that not only did this restaurant manage both of these expectations but that the food as was excellent and the customer service very good. I only had a simple bolognaise but the pasta was cooked to perfection and the sauce was amazingly tasty. If you get the chance to pop in for a bite to eat you won’t be disappointed and the prices are very reasonable making the whole experience very worth while. I will be back !! ”
“ I haven’t reviewed a restaurant for a while . Myself and my partner had pizza Capricciosa ...impossible to describe in words the taste of it. Staffs were very nice and friendly. We will be back soon ”
“ We made a last minute decision to call here before I took my son to the cinema and glad we did. The food was absolutely delicious. I was so impressed. My son said it was the best pizza he has ever had. The staff were extremely friendly and made an effort to talk to my son (though he's very quiet and didn't talk back much ). Excellent value, authentic food and a very warm and friendly atmosphere. ”
“ Randomly found this Italian restaurant during trip. Just a great surprise! The food was really authentic with reasonable portion, highly recommend pasta and risotto! Also their desert is also big portion and tasty, would recommend to anyone for sure. ”
