Leo's is a hidden gem in Central Jersey, a region where charming, low-key spots like this are rare. The restaurant features an excellent variety of dishes, presented in a serve-yourself style similar to Chipotle or Panda Express, with a new selection available daily. As a South American, I find the flavors familiar yet distinctively unique. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, adding to the welcoming atmosphere of this modest but delightful location. Although tucked away in a quiet area and unpretentious in appearance, Leo's offers exceptional food that's perfect for a relaxed Sunday meal. If you're looking for something beyond the ordinary, I highly recommend Leo's for its outstanding and unique culinary experience!!

What a hidden gem! I've spent a lot of time with my Filipino friends and this smells just like their family cooking. Very reasonably priced especially nowadays. $9.50 for a combination plate. Huge portion of rice. I did bbq chicken and a bbq pork kebab. The pork is incredible. Definitely worth going just for this. The chicken was good too. Lumpia (Filipino egg rolls with pork - MUST TRY) are 4/$2.50 with a delicious spicy sweet chili sauce. Very friendly staff and very helpful. Lots of Filipino groceries to buy too.

Great Filipino comfort food. From the menudo and incredible garlic fried rice, to the regular or ube flan, I've had nothing but hits from this place. We've had the pork BBQ skewers, lumpia and more, and would happily recommend any of them.

It's been a few years since the last time I'ved had food from here. Used to order catering for family gatherings and my bbq fix. Back in town for an event and wanted to make sure to get some good eats and was not disappointed. They don't have a ton of sitting area but still got to eat in and have some leftovers for later. Having the food there was a treat cause they had a good playlist going...Neocolours was on and was awesome to eat and reminisce Still the best Filipino BBQ I've had from DMV to NJ (other than my own lol). Empanadas are my wife's favorite & I really love the pastry dough. Also tried the Ukoy during this visit--biggest & baddest Ukoy, other than my mom's and it was amazing. There are always so many different food options from Kare-kare, pancit, menudo, lechón belly, etc. you'll find something to enjoy and fill you up. When expectations are high, satisfaction is sweeter when expectations are met. So glad we got the time to stop by. Keep it going!

My son Leo LOVES Leo's BBQ - perhaps it's a coincidence?? Super staff of aunties and their family have a very warm demeanor. They make you feel like you've joined their family BBQ. Here's the yummies we had with the big hits labeled with "(!!)". Apps: Soy Garlic WIngs Crispy Pork Belly (!!) Cripsy Okoy - shrimp fritters (!!) Entrees: BBQ Pork Skewers!! Chicken Adobo Pork Asado Fried Marinated Milkfish Dessert: Leche Flan (!!) I love coming here and will be back!

Leo's Barbecue is a cafeteria style filipino restaurant. The steam table holds at least a dozen different dishes to choose from. Offering a wide variety of dishes from fish chicken, beef, pork, vegtables, fried, baked, grilled or stewed, etc... There is always something for me to takeout. My rating is between 3 to 4 stars and went generous with a 4 because I've had some delicious meals here. Unfortunately, I have also had some not mediocre meals. My last visit the Kare Kare was really tasty with bits of peanuts but did not come with enough vegetables. We also ordered the garlic shrimp which was full of flavor but the shrimp was overcooked and so difficult to peel everyone avoided that dish. The baked bangos was my favorite. They follow all the basic requirements for social distancing. They recently added some shelves. I wil most definitely return to fill a filipino food craving.
