Leonardo’s unlikely position at the centre of a residential block makes it a little tricky to find, but the effort is well-rewarded by accomplished Italian cuisine. The pasta dishes are delicious and reasonably priced given the upmarket ambience, while the €5 pizzas should leave even those on a budget with a Mona Lisa smile.
