An awesome gem in Wooster! Food was great, the prices were reasonable, and everyone was extra friendly. I HIGHLY recomend this awesome restaurant! read more

I would like to love this place but it's cold. California, Arizona etc can carry the industrial interior, but at 32 degrees I want cozy. Being older I've had some rude hostesses, placing us close to restrooms or by the door while booths or tables go to younger patrons. We notice these things. Food is upscale for the most part, but the waffles with jalapeños were a bit much. We haven't been in for a while, maybe summer. Cheesecake is great! read more

Absolutely excellent in all respects. Great service and wonderful, creative food. Nicely done -- we'll be back!

Nice selection of food. Tasty, moist sandwiches and breakfast sandwiches. Service is fine. Ambience is OK.

I have been a few times and it has always been great. This time, I got the eggs benedict and mozz. sticks. The Mozz. sticks are must try. You only get 4, but they are large and totally filled with cheese. They are the best there is. the ranch is a bit spicy and ok but the tomato based is good. May need to ask for more. Eggs Beni is great and well prepared, It does need more sauce but I can see why they don't drown it b/c of presentation. But you will need to order more, The corn cake absorbs it like a sponge. read more

This place was amazing! Service was above and beyond. They were helpful, honest with their recommendations and the food was fabulous. Can't wait to come back for a visit! And the adult beverages did not disappoint! read more

This is my second visit in 3 months and although the food was amazing, the service today left a lot to be desired. Patrons arriving after us were eating and still no food was delivered to our table. It was when we asked where our food was an excuse was made. It seemed she never put the order in. We were not served for an hour which was unacceptable. read more

Positives: We got the hair of the dog omelette and wet breakfast burrito. Both were OK. Not out of this world but tasty enough. We won't order those again if we go back. The omelette had minimal filling and felt like a big egg omelette. I thought the breakfast potatoes were very tasty! I like how the place is decorated. Very pretty! Negatives: The service was awful!!!!! We went on a weekday at lunch and the service was super slow. And took forever to get our food and we didnt order anything super complicated! We also felt our waitress was very short with us, rushed and snappy. Their sodas are odd. They do not have regular sodas but some no name real sugar cane soda. This soda had ZERO bubbles. I hate flat soda!! So gross! I'm not sure if we will go back. read more

Food was very good as usual. Very busy and our server, Tori, was running crazy. But her service was impeccable. Always a smile and taking time to check on us. I come in as much for her and the other servers and bartenders as I do the food. Great place overall. read more

My wife m and I haven't been out to dinner by ourselves in six months and I'm so glad we chose to go to The Leaf for our big night out. First, the space is beautiful, if you've ever been in the parlor restaurant you'll be shocked at how the space has been transformed - but I also appreciate the nod to the former space with a drawing of the parlor as you enter. We started with some delicious cocktails. I can truly say I haven't been to another restaurant in Wooster where I would make a trip to go just for cocktails, but I would make a special stop here. The Apple Cider Old Fashioned will definitely have me coming back again (along with a few others I sampled). For dinner the steak bevette melted in my mouth and the Duck Bolognese I kept sneaking from Alicia's plate was to die for. A couple more stolen bites of house made cheesecake ...and another delicious after dinner cocktail closed out a beautiful and delicious evening. Make sure you stop by soon, open for dinner, lunch, and very soon breakfast read more

See all

So disappointed. Wanted to have lunch WITH my daughter as she is leaving town tomorrow. Less than 1/3 of the tables even occupied in the restaurant .....waited on our lunch for 50 min. She had to take hers to go to get back to work-and I ended up eating alone. She had biscuits & gravy...I, fish and chips. Nothing should have taken THAT long. Others who came in AFTER us had finished and left when we were finally getting served. No apology -no adjustment of check -no explanation. If you're on a schedule I'd avoid eating here read more

The brunch food never disappoints! And the drinks are heavenly!!! We always bring our friends here when in town.

What a great find in Wooster! Just visiting the town while my son visited the college, what a lovely place to eat. This restaurant has a nice atmosphere and the food and drink were delicious! I had an Apple Cider Old Fashioned and the Jap Chae. I am not vegan, I just chose the entree because it was gluten free and I am so glad I did, yum! The host and waiter were both very friendly and the music was good too. I will definitely return if my son decides to goto school here! read more

First time there and it was the Saturday before Mothers Day so maybe we caught them at a bad time but the service was terrible. I made reservations for 1:00 and we arrived at 12:50 and were told it would be at least 20 minutes before a table was ready. I told the girl we were going to walk around town and she said she would call my cell when ready. After not receiving a call for 30minutes, i went back in to check on my table and they gave it away to another party. After apologizing and finally seating us we sat and watched at least 3 parties that came in after us get served their meals well before we received ours and there was only 4 of us. So basically i made reservations for 1:00 and we didn't get our food until 2:30 . One other note, they gave us paper Mother Day menus and my wife ordered Hair of The Dog and no where on that menu did it say it was an omelet. The waitress told us it was online under the omelet section and they forgot to note that on the hard copy. Just a minor miss Right ? read more

I was excited to eat at the old parlor, a childhood favorite. The Leaf is a beautiful place to eat breakfast. The meal was more than regular breakfast items and was pricey. Sadly my food was under seasoned. The server never came back to see if my meal was ok. I eventually contacted the hostess to get my check after waiting for the servers return. The restaurant was not busy, so having a server that didn't check on how my meal was is sad. The server didn't seem to care. read more

Great food and good service! We enjoyed the atmosphere! Parking is a bit of a twist, tho

Excellent service. Food well prepared. Great for breakfast. Clean, nice atmosphere !!

Interesting menu. Some things are executed to perfection. A great chicken sandwich. Brunch is always a hit.

Sweet potato breakfast bowl was delicious! Coffee was hot and strong. Close to EV charging. Highly recommend

Great food, and fun servers. Sunday brunch is our favorite - partly because the prices seem to be a bit lower than dinner on a weeknight or the weekend. read more

We just moved to Wooster and had the tastiest brunch here this morning. It was our first restaurant experience in our new town, and they set a high bar! I got the reuben and Bloody Mary, and both were on point. read more

SUCH a cute restaurant, just so pretty inside -- and the food is amazing! The brussel sprouts appetizer was perfectly done and one of the best we've had at any restaurant. Food options were great (and large portions) and very tasty, with a few atypical options like the quinoa bowls and caprese grilled cheese. Small seating area, great service and excellent food -- it was the perfect choice! read more

The loaded potato omelette was one of the best omelettes of my life. Perfectly executed and so delicious. The Belgian waffle and gluten free waffles were also delicious. My only suggestion would be to have an option to get pure maple syrup instead of the artificial kind. Even if it cost more, many people would love the option to upgrade. Oh and the coffee cups don't have handles which looks very cool and modern but dang they get hot and are hard to hold, lol! Our server was kind, gracious and attentive. Will definitely be back. read more

Went for Sunday brunch with my sister and nephews and it was great for everyone! The food was delicious and the staff was amazing and so accommodating! read more

Wonderful drinks and food. Have been here for dinner and brunch, both are great. Breakfast charcuterie board is a great idea and perfect for sharing among two people as a whole meal, or a larger group for a starter. They don't skimp! The chicken sandwich is delicious also! read more

Sam is amazing! Espresso martini decorated for the holidays and felt very cozy sitting at the bar !

We loved this new spot! They did a great job remodeling and adding to the unique vibe from Downtown Woo. Loved the steak, potatoes and brunch options! Bring back the GF cheesecake though!! read more

I've dined from Australia to Europe and South America. This establishment is in my top 10. Great food, great people and modest prices. Fabulous!! Samantha the owner knows what she is doing as well as the chef. read more
