From the very beginning, LP was very easy to work with when it came to hosting my baby shower. They were very accommodating, listed very reasonable prices, and made sure all the small details I requested for the day of were met. Eric took very good care of us from the beginning to end, and we look forward to the day we will go back to host another event! Highly recommend :)

From the moment we reached out to Didi Simancas to inquire about hosting our event at Leonard's Pallazo, the experience was exceptional. Didi's attentiveness to our needs and her proactive approach to ensuring that our event would meet and exceed our expectations truly stood out. Every step of the way, Didi went above and beyond to make sure that every detail was taken care of. Her initiative and dedication were evident in every interaction, and it was clear that she was genuinely invested in making our event a success. And when the day of our event arrived, we were blown away. The venue was stunning, the atmosphere was perfect, and the service was impeccable. Our guests couldn't stop raving about how delicious the food was and how beautiful the venue looked. It was truly an unforgettable experience for everyone involved. Looking ahead, we are already eagerly anticipating the opportunity to host more events at Leonard's Pallazo in the future. The professionalism and dedication of Didi and the entire staff have left a lasting impression on us, and we wholeheartedly recommend this venue to anyone looking for a top-notch event space. In summary, our experience with Leonard's Pallazo exceeded our expectations in every way possible. From the initial inquiry to the execution of the event, everything was handled with the utmost professionalism and care. Thank you to Didi and the entire team for making our event a truly memorable one.

My planner Mr. Tuhin Zaman Was beyond excellent and comforting. Met all our demands and came through with all promises. I can continue without stopping for endless phenomenal experiences. Thank you for a remarkable experience!!!

Leonard's Palazzo helped make our dream wedding become a reality. Everyone we interacted with, from the very early planning stages right up to the day of the wedding, was so friendly, helpful, professional, and accommodating in every aspect. The food was amazing, and the venue itself is so beautiful that we didn't even feel the need to bring our own decorations -- the place shines on its own. A huge thank you to Leonard's for taking care of the details and making sure every single facet of our wedding day ran smoothly!

The staff during my event was so helpful and made sure everything was perfect. It’s been two weeks since my wedding at Leonard’s and people are still raving about the venue. I fell in love with the venue at a first glance and I’m so glad I went with my gut and booked with them.

Thank you to Tuhin Zaman and Jeffery Edmond for your warm hostility and help to guide me and my husband through the event process. To say that I had a good time whilst attending my event at Leonard's Palazzo is an understatement. I was blown away by the location's sheer beauty, elegant atmosphere, and professionalism of the staff as well as their warm welcome upon arrival and throughout the stay. The food was plentiful and delicious, the service was great, and those combined were what made the night go smoothly and successfully. I am pleased that I am able to say that I share these views with the guests that attended my event and I am more than pleased to say that Leonard's Palazzo is definitely on my list of venues to use again, not only to host any future events but also to share with others so that they can consider Leonard's Palazzo as their place for events.

Leonard’s Palazzo is amazing from the time I walked in the door until the end of the night at my 60th Birthday Party I was happy Francesca Acosta is a wonderful Banquet Manager she always made me feel special. She saw to it that I didn’t leave out anything and helped me cover all my bases. The food was awesome and the servers were great as well but let me tell you about the leader over the staff on the night of my event name Patrick and I don’t know his last name but this man was everything he made everything go off without a problem and he checked on me from time to time which made me feel special as well he was just so on point he really was everything and more I will be having my daughters 40th there and I’m already working with Mrs. Acosta and I will be requesting Patrick cause when I say amazing he was surely that and more. But I also say thank you to the entire staff for all that you do. Ms. Lynette Cook

We got married at Leonards last month and it was everything we expected and more. We had the pleasure of having Joe C. plan and manage our event. He was an excellent point of contact to keep us calm and guide us through our big day; he went above and beyond for us. The entire staff was phenomenal from cocktail hour to Viennese hour. Big thanks to our Maitre D, Jose, and Diana, our bridal attendant who absolutely exceeded all expectations and treated us like royalty. Every person we encountered at Leonards is a professional and they certainly make you feel like a member of their family. I must also mention the renovations they have completed in the past couple of years, the place is gorgeous and top notch. I would absolutely recommend this lovely venue.

This was our first event at Leonard's for our organization which was celebrating a very important anniversary. From the very start of the planning process, Ryan Matland from Leonard's, our catering director, worked closely with us. Ryan was always easy to approach, was accommodating to answer any questions we had, and was always willing to meet with us whether that be over the phone or face to face. He was flexible and always addressed our questions and concerns with the utmost professionalism and flexibility. Two days before the event we asked if servers could serve the food during the cocktail hour and kid’s buffet instead of guests self-serving. Ryan agreed and made it happen. On event day, our maître de Jose was fantastic and accommodated all our requests including moving tables around, changing the lighting, increasing/decreasing the air conditioning, etc. Our event went extraordinarily well with a lot of complements from our guests from the spacious parking, coat check, the open bar to the food, the atmosphere, and the beautiful venue itself. Thank you Lenoard’s!

On Sunday Sept 23, 2018 my husband and I hosted a 40th birthday party for our son at Leonard's Palazzo in Great Neck. The best way to describe the party was magical. From the central location, lovely decor and delicious food we were more than satisfied. We chose the modified cocktail hour, dinner, cannoli cake and ice cream bar. The filet mignon was the best I ever tasted. Our guests really enjoyed the ice cream bar. We paid for the package that we wanted and there were no hidden charges. Jay and Eric were present to rectify any concerns that we may have had. I must admit we were a little anxious before the party but Jay said "Don't be nervous at all, we will take care of everything". A good time was had by all. We would definitely recommend Leonard's Palazzo to our friends and family.

We had our daughter Giuliana's Sweet Sixteen celebration at Leonard's Palazzo on October 14, 2018. We had the Best time and the food was Excellent. I wrote a huge and more detail on Google. Jay our Banquet manager made the impossible, possible. Rina was excellent with my daughter and helped her get dressed. I called Jay the day of the party to say my daughter decided to get dressed there as I was driving to the Venue. Jay arranged for Rina and team waiting for us at the door and expedited us to a suite with a bathroom attached to it along with a healthy tray of vegetables, dip and water in the suite. The maintenance person also made our day go smoothly. The rose on my daughter's guest book came off, Rina must have called maintenance and he came with a huge glue gun and fixed it. WOW!! The cocktail food was excellent and the sit down dinner was excellent. You can do so much planning but if the food is terrible that is the only thing people will remember. Italian people are very honest and blunt about what they have to say. Friends & relatives all said the food was really good. My daughter chose Leanard's because of the food, the beauty of the venue and she also connected with Jay. On the day of her party Giuliana connected with Rina. Rina was so kind, she helped my daughter get dressed and at the end of the night she helped get out of her dress. I will definitely book another party with Jay and the team at Leonard's. Warm wishes,Antoinette Gandolfo Euripide

On Sept 15th, 2018 my husband and I held our baby shower at Leonard's Pallazzo and I honestly can not thank them enough. Danielle took care of us as though we were family and made the process seamless. Yissela (hope I'm spelling that correctly) made sure our guests were well taken care of and everything was perfect. Our guests raved about the decor as well as the food and I wish to have many more events at this venue. We are still getting compliments and I'm sure we will for years to come.

Jay and his team at Leonard’s were amazing. My family held a surprise birthday party for my grandmother and the staff did a great job at helping us with the finishing touches on the day. The maitre’d, Michelle, was more than helpful, she was very attentive and was there to take some of the stress off of us by taking care of things that needed to be done. I couldn’t be in 5 places at once but Michelle took care of that. I commend Jay for a job well done! During the planning process Jay wanted to make sure we were cost efficient, and gave us ideas that helped us to still achieve the birthday party we envisioned for my grandmother. He was readily available, and even stayed after hours in his office to wait for us to arrive at Leonard’s to drop off some decorations etc for the big day. Sometimes when going to catering halls the food isn’t that tasty , but I will say , Leonard’s food was good. My guests enjoyed the cocktail hour. We asked for rice to be on the menu to accommodate some of our guests who would like something a bit heavy , and Jay said he could get white rice. In our meeting we asked if he could get rice and peas, and he wasn’t sure if they would do it but he made a note. On the actual day we were surprised that they honored our request for the rice and peas, of which my guests, Caribbean people, loved it! The dinner, was plated nicely and tasted great as well. I know sometimes you get bland food at catering halls but they had a lot of flavor. Overall Leonard’s, is a great venue, beautiful to look at inside and out and great for pictures.

Jay Ahn and Leonards Palazzo are phenomenal! We celebrated two important milestones in my families lives- both the birth and celebration of my daughter Victoria & my parents 50th Wedding Anniversary. I could not have done such event without the planning and insight of Jay Ahn. From the day I met him, he put me at ease, my mom loves him, she still talks about how amazing he is to this day! He is an expert coordinator and planner. In my entire experience of planning events for work or family, I have never met any one more professional and personable. My program had a ton of details; a mariachi band at cocktail hour in the gorgeous Provincial room, and a traditional Chinese lion dance in the Leonardo Da Vinci room in the penthouse before my husband and I walked in with our newborn daughter. During our appetizers we had a performance by a Frank Sinatra tribute artist, and the coup de grace was the announcement of my parents 50th wedding anniversary- was my surprise to them an Elvis impersonator! My folks were such huge fans and it made the entire party emotional as they danced full of love and youth. The planning you can imagine it was a daunting process. We joked that this event was more complex than some weddings. In my culture (like most) family is everything and Jay knew that this event was a statement and it was meant to have that “WOW!” factor. Many thanks to the chefs too, the food was amazing! My family and friends are still talking about cocktail hour, so much food! There was literally something for everyone. For dinner several children had severe allergies and the chefs were able to accommodate our requests. Dinner was absolutely delicious, and the cake was so delicious too!!! I would be remiss if I did not thank Natalia our Maitre d’ who held our hands through this process. For a any event, especially a wedding I highly recommend the team at Leonards Palazzo and Jay Ahn. Jay is a true asset to Leonard’s Palazzo!!! Thank you so much Jay!! Can’t wait to plan our next event with you!

I couldn’t have been happier with the outcome of my daughters Sweet Sixteen. Our party planner Jay was more than just good. My daughter and I bonded with Jay and he went above and beyond with details and dedication to make sure my daughters day was perfect! I would not have asked for anyone else other than Jay for my event. The staff at Leonards is super understanding and always willing to accommodate to our needs especially the day of the party. My daughter would repeatedly tell me after the party ended how much she loved the Maitre d (Giancarlo) JC and his assistant and how they were always trying to help her and making sure she found everything that she needed.... even a pin for her Tiara, and tried to calm her down before she walked out because she was nervous. The staff at Leonards is so sweet and caring and my family and I couldn’t have asked for a better night! Thank you so much guys!!

My In laws had a family celebration at Leonard’s Palazzo. I was prepared to bring my own food for my multiple food allergic children but after speaking with Jay who was in charge of my sister in law’s event I felt very comfortable allowing his staff to safely prepare their meals. On the day of the event the staff seemed well informed and provided great reassurance things would be handled safely. My kids had a great time- as a physician as well as a mother it meant a great deal to me for my children to be safely included. The staff was quite professional, efficient and welcoming at all times- we had a lovely time!!!

I will definitely going back next year for more celebrations and I want to request the same people to handle my party. I will definitely 100% to recommend Leonard’s Palazzo to all my friends, co-workers and to everyone I know because of your excellent service. Thanks again Danielle, you are the best! God bless you all. Ernesto and Hershey Family.

I can't begin to tell you what I absolutely love about this venue...but I will begin and I'll begin here. We chose Leonard's Palazzo for my daughter's HS graduation/Going off to college party. From the moment you pull up to the venue, you quickly come to realize the elegance and grace of the atmosphere set at this venue. That was exactly what we were looking for. From the professional valet attendants to the door opening for us, to all the responsive members of the team who helped us quickly decide this is the place for our celebration by their professionalism and genuine interest in our event. The banquet manager Jay Ahn leadership was phenomenal. I was extremely nervous when I began my search of a venue but that stress was quickly alleviated and turned into not only a proud moment due to the reason for celebration but also to how each and every request of ours was met with responsiveness and professionalism. Jay Ahn was kind and friendly and never minded our long list of requests. From the moment our guests arrived to this day, I consistently hear about what a great venue and party we had. People loved the room, the staff, the setting, and how smoothly the event was carried out. I have to thank the staff for their professional, yet friendly, attitude and I sincerely want to thank our Banquet Manager Jay Ahn and Maitre’d Giancarlo (GC) for making this event especially memorable for my daughter. I strongly recommend this place for any event, big or small. The staff was easy to work with, they were super understanding of our needs and they took care of everything to perfection. I couldn't have found a better place to celebrate my daughter's special day.

My husband and I started looking for a reception hall in March of 2017 and that's when we met Jay. We met him when we were looking at astoria manor in Queens. however we didn't like the hall but loved Jay. I remember even saying to my mother-in-law “I wish I could hire Jay to be our event coordinator with another venue”. Fast forward a few weeks later my husband and I were looking at Leonard's Palazzo and we just fell in love with the classic, romantic look and feel of the hall. We booked the grand ballroom for our reception, however I kept thinking about Jay and how great it would be if he was our event coordinator. We stopped by at Leonardo's one afternoon about a month before our event was to take place to finalize some stuff and I saw Jay walked by, I looked at my husband and whisper to him “that looks like Jay from Astoria Manor”. I made eye contact with Jay and signal to him that I wanted him to take over our account. I knew we made the right choice when we sat down and spoke to Jay, we just connected on so many levels. Our wedding was June 2, 2018 and it went off flawlessly. The staff at Leonardo's was amazing!!!! Rina and Racquel our bridal attendants took such great care of me and my husband. Jose our maitre’d made sure we were okay all night and catered to our guests. I would strongly recommend Leonardo's Palazzo to anyone who's looking for an elegant place with great staff to host an event. As for Jay he's amazing and made our big day unforgettable. He pays attention to details, consults with you every step of the way and he's very patient. Jay is the best!!!!!

My 60th Birthday Celebration at Leonard's Palazzo was a stupendous elegant foot stomping, hand clapping affair. The staff was cooperative, providing the necessities to make the event a success. The perfect warm lighting, crystal style appearance and delicious tasting food was enjoyed by everyone. My signature drink, "The Renéetini," was enlightening to the educated palate. A sweet tooth's delight. My 60th Birthday Party was a fabulous fairytale, an unforgettable moment in time. Luv ya LP

Yesterday, we celebrated our Mom's 70th birthday at Leonard's Palazzo. To sum it up it was breathtaking from the hospitality, ambiance, setup, and food. Even though we worked very closely with Danielle Amato to book this event it exceeded our expectations. Her professionalism, and experience in booking events, really put us at ease and was very informative and personable. Our host Michelle was cordial and worked hard to accommodate our needs and that of our guests. Mom was in heaven when she entered her suite. Besides that, everyone was talking about the food, cocktail hour was successful and the salad looked like a work of art. Literally! We are extremely pleased that we chose Leonard's Palazzo as our venue. Our most heartfelt thanks. We look forward to doing business with you in the future.

We highly recommend Leonards! We held our daughter's birthday party at Leonard's in December, 2017 and we cannot express how classy everything was. The lobby and room were beautiful. The service was fantastic. The food at the cocktail, buffet, cake and coffee were delicious! Granite/premium bar. I cannot emphasize how beautiful and classy everything was. Leonard's made us proud. I highly recommend Leonard's. Ideally located as well. Thank-you Ryan...!

I can't begin to tell you how elated me and my wife are with the incredible service we received from Danielle. She made the planning of my daughter's sweet sixteen seem easy!! she was there for us throughout! Always giving sound advice and always willing to go above and beyond her scope of service. She and the rest of the staff should be commended. On 10/14/17 we held my daughter Maria's sweet sixteen and I must tell you, Leonard's received rave reviews. We had some many people tell us that this was the best sweet sixteen they have ever attended. Thanks to all of the staff that night that made it possible. A very special thanks to Michelle out Maître d and Michelle, my daughters personnel attendant! they both were fantastic! In addition names I don't remember, the bar tenders, and the servers all did a marvelous job. Once again THANKS A MILLION FROM THE Bonanno family. If the owners would like to discuss with me I would be available. 917-642-0502

Our wedding was on 9/16. We planned our wedding in such a short period of time. We were very fortunate that Ryan at Leonard was helping us to pick the wedding food menu, planning the seating, recommend decoration, follow up ... too much to list. And no hassle all the way to the big day!!!! Food was awesome, lobster, salmon, crab leg, steak etc. Highly recommended the place, and MUST look for Ryan (highly recommended)

Leonard's did an excellent job on our Pastor's Installation Banquet. The food was excellent and the wait staff was very attentive to our needs especially when this banquet also involved a religious service. Hats off to Danielle who was great in setting this up for us.

I had my Birthday Celebration at Leonard’s Palazzo and it was fabulous. The place is absolutely beautiful and spacious. Everything was perfect. The entire staff was courteous, friendly, attentive and accommodating. The food was delicious. My guests raved about how delicious the food was from the Cocktail Hour through the main course. Ryan Matland, Director of Catering, was a great help from the beginning to the end. He made great suggestions with the food selection. I am a Seventh Day Adventist and he ensured that the food was prepared to our needs. I highly recommend Leonard’s for any birthday or wedding celebration. I gave them 5 Stars for excellent service, amazing staff, delicious food and beautiful venue.

I had my daughter's Sweet 16 this past Saturday, the 10th, and the venue was nothing short of amazing. From the day I signed the contract, to the day of the event, Joe Carbone has held my hand the entire way. The food, the ambiance, and most importantly the staff was perfect. My daughter who is very hard to please said when she gets married in 20 years, this venue is MUST. With that being said, I can't wait to hold my next event at the venue and work with the staff again..... With love....

On October 1, 2016 we celebrated a milestone- our Daughter Michelle's sweet 16..what an amazing experience we had at Leonard's.. From start to finish Managing Director- Ryan Matland is such an extrodinary person, words cannot explain my gratitude to him..he made us feel as if we were family from the time we walked in his office to the time we walked out after our party..although I tormented him for about a year, he kept it cool and I did give him fair warning when I told him he'll never forget me lol. He's definitely your go to guy.. to make your vision comes true. And for his team of beautiful people!! Firstly, Michelle who was our maître d' for the night is truly the most heart warming person you'll ever meet, she made sure everything was on point throughout the night and it was :-), Stephanie who welcomed our daughter at the car and stood with her suite until her grand entrance was also, so so sincere :-). The venue is simply classy and elegant....the entire menu was delicious from cocktail in the empire room to the main course in the Tiffany and Crystal room and viennese hour just wow! I can go on and on because I'm a hard person to please but the Leonard's team pleased me completely.. And I realized that the night I left with my eyes filled with tears from complete satisfaction as I felt.. like I was leaving something behind. Once again I would like to thank you all soooooo much for a memory we will never forget. I wish I could have rated this 10 stars :-). Ps I'll be back lol.. Big hugs and kisses to you all.

I had my daughter's sweet 15 at Leonard's Palazzo on September17, 2016. I have nothing but words of gratefulness and appreciation to all the staff at this beautiful venue. A special thanks to Ryan Matland, our sales specialist. Without his help and guidance, my daughter's sweet 15 would not have turned out the way it did it. I can image a better, more professional, well run, and accomodating venue. The service by every single person was done well and with a smile. I get nothing but compliments. All my guests were floored with the beauty and elegance of Leonard's Palazzo. Everything exceeded my expectations. It was a magical night for all my family, and especially for my daugther!!

I thought my event was beautiful. The service and wait staff were extremely accommodating, and attentive demonstrating their ability to please. My only concern is that they started to clear tables shortly after the cake cutting (around 3:15pm ), which was an indication to my quests that it was time to leave. Although our party wasn't scheduled to end until 4 pm, (to my dismay) the tables had been cleared and the preparations for your next event had begun. Actually, all signs of my party had been dismantled well before 4 pm. I had envisioned that the last 20-30 minutes of the party would have been of guests dancing and enjoying themselves, not leaving. This was a great disappointment to me. Thank you for this opportunity to share.

I love everything about Leonard's! First and foremost, the place itself is very elegant. That's why I didn't bother looking at other venues because the minute I stepped into the lobby, I already fell in love with it! I knew that this is the perfect place for the occasion and I decided that was it! The guests also raved about how beautiful the place is. Secondly, the details - from the linens, table set-up, lighting, and to top it off, our wedding cake - everything is just perfect and in accordance to what I had planned. The staff - our maitre d', bartender, and the entire wait crew - were all so attentive and accommodating to our needs. The banquet was never empty. The food was refilled promptly. The service was very orderly. The food selection was great! (I loved the salmon dish personally.) I heard a lot of praises from my guests about their satisfaction with their meal. This makes up a huge part in their enjoyment. Last but not the least, this celebration will not be a reality and a huge success without the careful coordination and generous assistance of our banquet manager, Joe Carbone. From the first time we consulted with him up to party time, he was there to make sure everything was in order. He even made a few suggestions that contributed to a perfect outcome. I relied on his expertise because he knows too well based on his experience in this profession. I am so thankful that I had the privilege of knowing him and working with him to make this occasion extra special and memorable for me and my family. My overall experience in Leonard's is way beyond my expectations and what I could ever dreamed of. I cannot thank all of you enough for the wonderful time we will forever cherish in our lives. Excellent service, amazing staff! Perfection is an understatement! Thank you all! I am forever grateful. Cynthia Santos 25th Anniversary & 50th Birthday Continental Room January 9, 2016

Leonard's palazzo is not only elegant the staff is quite amazing. Soon as you pull in you feel as if you're the most important person there. The experience was truly amazing. I threw my mother surprise party there and she couldn't stop crying. The staff showed her nothing but respect alone with our guest. The only issue I had was the food. It was bland. The pasta was good, the salad too and so was the steak but everything else wasn't the best. Besides that perfect experience.

Absolutely outstanding venue for an event. I just had my daughter's sweet 16 a few weeks back and the management staff went above and beyond to ensure the event was a success. My family received all outstanding comments from friends & families who attended the event. From the cocktail hour to the main course this venue is second to none. Friends & families of ours are completely committed to use this venue for all occasions. We occupied the penthouse on the second floor and the settings with all the sofa chairs in the bar area presents a Manhattan style sophisticated experience. We are in debt to the staff.

I had my wedding at Leonards in August 2010. Man what an amazing venue and quite affordable. Everything was great leading up to the wedding. Antonio and Ian made my fiance feel like a King and a Queen. The food selection was great and everyone still today talk about our cocktail hour. However the only reason I can't give a 5 was that on the day of the wedding the service was not good. I don't know what happened. The maitre d was not accomodating and really upset my wife. If it wasn't for that Leonards would get 10 stars from me. So if you plan on choosing Leonards please stress to them that you want complete clairty as to what your wedding day expectations should be
