Leonardo's Deli Cafe - Millbrae

I've been coming here for years and provide lunches for my employees at work for years. Always great service and food Thank you Gary!! Peter Pan BMWFood: 5/5

Walking in Leonardo's feels like walking back in time. They have fresh soup of the day on a counter and on a typical morning I see folks get an espresso and people watch. There's Sinatra playing which mixed with the smell of the soup and sandwiches being made just puts a smile on my face. The sandwiches are highly customizable but I tend to stick with the menu board staples because there's something for every mood if it ain't broke why mess with it?

Got lunch here at the tail end of their lunch rush this past Friday. I saw that they were busy but I had gotten my order for a Raider sandwich before another rush of customers. Unfortunately, the folks behind the counter made at least four other customers’ sandwiches before mine, so I was stuck waiting for a bit. I asked for ETA on my sandwich and was met by rudeness and excuses that they were busy, and the owner telling his employees to make my sandwich because I was “unhappy”. Yes, I was getting hangry and needed my food but didn’t need the condescension. Owner’s son was apologetic enough but didn’t make up for the rudeness of the owner. I was trying to support a local business but not with this attitude. A simple “sorry, your food’s coming right up” would’ve been good. Sandwich wasn’t bad but I don’t think I will be returning.

Everything is fresh and the food is delicious. The service is fast so I come here for lunch.Food: 5/5

Great experience and even better sandwich. Owner is awesome and cares about his customers. Friendly and welcome. Food is tremendous. 11/10 would recommend and will definitely go back!
