   So underwhelmed by this place. Oysters were very expensive. Only three options for main course, including one that was not available anymore. The main course scallops portion is soooo small, that we were still hungry after dinner. Noise level was very high, I would not recommend this place.

   We’ve been a Leo’s multiple times, and every time it’s been really excellent! The ambience is chic, but approachable… Like a super fun tropical bar restaurant in the heart of downtown San Francisco. Food is excellent… Service is warm, friendly, and helpful. We’re gone every year for the holidays and it’s so much fun. Can’t recommend it enough!

   Leo’s was an amazing restaurant that had food far beyond just their oysters. Every dish was not just flavorful but also incredibly artistic and creative. This was easily one of my top ten restaurants in the area, and I can’t wait to go again.

   Great food. Small plates perfect for sharing. Come early and have a drink at the bar first. Don’t forget yo get the crudo:)

    I had the caviar service with champagne. Then a salad and lobster roll with white wine. The food is good. The chairs are uncomfortable and cramped. It is quite expensive, about 15-25$ for a glass of wine. $195 for caviar.

    I’ve always loved Leo’s for its casual sophistication paired with great food and drinks and excellent service. Last night we experienced less sophistication and a very loud (many screaming people) environment, where it was a little hard to have a conversation. Food, drink and service still very good. Just too casual and loud for me.

    Ridiculously overpriced and the service is incredibly slow. I’ve been there three times to give it a fair shot and each time was worse than the last.

    Leo’s has such an amazing ambiance! The description was perfect as it also gave me old school Cuba! The oysters were heaven! I can honestly say that they are the best I’ve had in California thus far hands down! And to top it off we had an amazing experience with the hostess and the waitresses. I wish I had gotten the hostess’ name but we did get the waitress’ name which was Seaira and she was absolutely a gem! Love love loved her energy and spirit plus she made us laugh all night! Overall, we will definitely come back to Leo’s on another visit to San Fransisco ✨🧚🏾‍♀️ !

    How have I lived in SF for 2.5 years and have never been here?! This is the CUTEST place I have ever seen, we felt like we were on vacation! From the ambiance, to the music, to the service, and of course the food - Leo’s Oyster Bar is just to die for! 🍹Garden Party - love me an egg white cocktail! So refreshing, not too sweet, YUM 🥚 Leo’s Deviled Egg - only comes with a half (so make sure to order enough for each person to have their own) really tasty! If you like deviled eggs you must try 🦪 The Big Cove were our favorite, but can’t really go wrong; their cocktail sauce is amazing! We also got a few of the Chef Creek, Willapa Bay, and Eloise oysters 🍣 Spicy Salmon Bites - O M G! Sooo good, could have eaten 50. Perfect amount of spice and flavor, with perfectly cooked crispy rice 🐠 Pan Seared Scallops - I think this stole the show! Every single bite mixed with the corn and chilis left us contemplating another order. A must have! 🦀 Blue Crab + Buttered Rolls - holy moly yummy! These do not come together, but you absolutely need to order together - we made our own mini crab sandwiches! The spicy mayo added the perfect kick and the compound butter on the rolls is truly insane ✨ Like already mentioned, cutest place I’ve ever seen. Love all the decor and plants! Music was super fun and upbeat, but not too loud to have a conversation. The service was impeccable - never waited long, super friendly, and great recommendations (shout out to Flavia!) 🤍 My mom is visiting and loves all food and especially oysters, so I’m very happy my first time here was with her. Ideal for 2-3 people unless you order multiple of a bunch of things 💯 Nikki’s Noms Number: 63/10 (@noms.with.nikki)

    Amazing place to dine! The staff were very kind and since I was dining solo, the waitress offered me “her favorite spot in the restaurant,” which was nice! I ended up ordering 4 oysters as well as a skirt steak and fries which came out to be around $55, which I thought was very reasonable. The steak was good but nothing special, but the oysters were the real star of the dining experience!

    A lovely spot .. but *exceedingly* expensive. If you're good with paying $6/deviled egg with fried oyster on top and $19 for a simple green salad with few dollops of goat cheese, this is your place. Having said that, the oysters and crudo are EXCELLENT.

    The service at Leo’s was incredible. The seafood was fresh and delicious. They forgot one oyster in our dozen and made up for it two fold. The music was my playlist and everyone who worked there was a delight. This is a gem. New SF fav.

    The service was outstanding from the get go. We went for Valentine's day, and the fact that there was a pre fixe menu was not communicated as part of making the reservation through Open Table. The general manager called us and let us know of the snafu, and was able to arrange for our reservation to be part of the walk-in tables, and also allowed us to pick between the a la carte menu and pre fixe menu. Definitely above and beyond service. We did end up going for the pre fixe menu in the end, and added a couple of prepared oysters to the meal. I thought that all the food was very tasty, except that the shaved black truffle add-on for the entrée tasted like almost nothing, which was disappointing. Also the oysters that came as part of the pre fixe were extremely small (but still tasty). The main problem is that the portions served for the price paid ($185 per person for pre fix + $11 for each prepared oyster +$25 for the shaved truffle add-on) was just too much. We ended up leaving with a $715 tab including tip (20%). I enjoyed the environment, the service, and the food tasted good (except the truffles). If I went back, I think I would go for appetizers or small bites and some drinks instead of a full meal.

    OMG one of the very best meals I have ever had in San Francisco, we ate all the seafood, raw bar options were exquisite, and then ate some more, cocktail and wine selection was awesome, great service, atmosphere was so intimate and it felt like a real escape from the every day scene outside. 5 stars across the board.

    Excellent. Not a very big place, but pleasantly decorated with a 'cozy' feel. Oysters were very fresh, with a very tasty mignonette. One of us had the warm lobster roll; the other the special which was linguini with crab and lobster in a butter/cheese sauce. It was absolutely outstanding. Service was spot on. Also the manager came by and checked on us personally, a nice touch. A little pricey but not out of line for fine dining in San Francisco. We are definitely going back.
