What an absolute gem of a venue. The ambience is perfect, every staff member was smiling, genuine and knowledgeable. We trusted their recommendations, and each was excellent. We started with sushi that was fresh and delicious, followed up by a change of pace with a burger that set the standard for quality and execution. Honestly, every item we ordered was impressive and if you are near Petoskey and a lover of wine and food, it is a must-visit. Relaxed, warm and welcoming but of a very high standard. Bravo.

Can I give more than five stars?! Leto’s was the best culinary experience I’ve had in my entire life. I will probably never stop talking about it. Definitely make a reservation, you’re gonna need it because these guys are hopping (and once you try it, you’ll understand why). If you ask your girl where she wants to eat and she’s like, “oh I don’t know...” she does know. She wants to go to Leto’s, I promise you.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: if you like it when your food tastes really good, then you should probably eat here. My girlfriend and I had the michigan asparagus gratinato to start followed by the mushroom mafaldine and the shrimp arrabbiata. Our waitress had great recommendations and everything was a slam-dunk when it came to flavor. Be sure to save room for dessert because we ended the night with their strawberry cheesecake and it was delicious! Also they box your food for you which is so rare in the United States these days, so bonus points for that.

Run, don’t walk to Leto’s Osteria! The small plates were delightful and the house-made pastas (with imported Italian semolina flour) were incredible! Balanced, seasonal flavor. Cocktails and wine list were also top notch! We finished with the lemon olive oil cake, which was light and fluffy. We drove 45-minutes to enjoy the new menu and will gladly do so again!

We had a lovely Sunday night dinner at Leto's Osteria recently. Sat at the bar, which has a great feel. Excellent drinks. The potato appetizer with the trout roe and dill humus was perfect. For entrees, my wife had the swordfish baked in parchment, I had the bucatini carbonara. Both were fabulous. We can't say enough about the quality of the experience. Run, don't walk to Leto's. We'll definitely be back.

The staff and food are 10/10. From the drink selection down to the desserts, the warmth of the decor, and the kind staff.. this is the place to be. Every bite is an adventure in its own & I love enjoying what letos has to offer! Grateful for good food.

Chef Ray has a deep love and passion for his art and you can taste it in every bite! We have had the pleasure of dining at Letos twice now and still have more we want to come back to try. This is the place to go in Northern Michigan!
