By far the BEST pizza I have ever had and I have travelled far and wide including spending several months in Italy . The chef / owner is Italian and so the food here is pukka Italian . I felt it would be good because it came out roughly 30 mins after ordering ( a good sign in my book). The restaurant is lovely , stylish and cosy. Absolutely recommend . Home made ice cream too!

AMAZING place to feel pampered by service of a super owner Roberto and his loveliest staff 🥹🥰Food is delicious , portions are just right, the variety is lovely. Recomendation is osso buco, tagliata di manzzo, pizza, lasagna, all pastas because this is literally piece of Italy in Kenya 👑We have been eating here for 10 days straight and would again if we return to Diani beach area ☺️🥂

I just fell in love with the place that I share a name with! The services were excellent! Great waiters. Sounded a place for Italians but I didn't mind. It's right there near everything in Diani!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ One of the Best in Diani – Leonardo’s Italian Restaurant Leonardo’s is easily one of the best restaurants in Diani. The whole experience was smooth and enjoyable — the food came out quickly, was delicious, and though the presentation wasn’t overly fancy, it was still clean and appetizing. The restaurant is spacious, well-run, and has a professional yet relaxed vibe. You can tell the team knows what they’re doing. And despite the high standards, the prices are very reasonable for the quality you get. Highly recommended if you’re looking for authentic Italian food, efficient service, and a great dining atmosphere in Diani.

Went there for dinner on New year's eve and after New year's. Despite the place being very busy the owner promptly welcomed us and got us the best seats in the house for smokers 😄 We were pretty hungry so we had pizza, lasagna and pork chops and 🍸 cocktails. The food was so tasty and fresh, the service was great! The drinks were strong I was definitely a lot tipsy when leaving. 🤗 Also my first time having a sorbet and it was yummy 😋 My first experience made me visit again. Definitely a must go every time I'm in Diani.
