 Leona's Restaurant Chicago IL Review Gayot
We say "fortunately" because Leona’s has the greatest variety of pizzas in the city and makes them all with elan.
We think the thin-crust is the best of the lot, but there are also respectable versions of the pan, double-decked, stuffed, whole-wheat crust and white (with a Parmesan-cream sauce instead of tomato sauce) pizzas.
Leona’s is not timid about adding and deleting menu items, but some permanent entries, like the excellent lasagne and the toothsome ravioli trio (meat, cheese and spinach) are definitely worth a try.
