Leona's is lame now, or is it just me?

I go out to eat infrequently, but in the past, when I've gone out to eat I've favored Leona's.  I like their menu.  And "service" is relatively unimportant to me as long as the wait staff is attentive to my "beverage" needs.

I've been eating at Leona's (Sheffield and Sheridan locations) for several years now.  And I've NEVER experienced a quality problem.

I agree. My husband and I used to love it, particularly because of the garlic dishes and the "roasted rose" you could get alongside. We have eaten at several locations, and really noticed a downturn after "the kids" took over.
