    We were out of town and it was our 51st wedding anniversary. Finding a restaurant that was open on a Monday wasn't easy but Leo's turned out to be close to our hotel and the food was very good. We shared a special antipasto, he had fettuccine alfredo with chicken and I had eggplant stuffed with ricotta with linguine. Portions were large so we only finished half but took the leftovers to go. Service was slow but friendly. Most of the room was a bar and nearly all the tables were high tops because they had a large party coming in that used all the low tables, but they found a regular table and chairs for us (climbing onto a tall chair would have been difficult). The waitstaff wore shirts that said the restaurant has been there since 1910 so that's pretty impressive.
