Joe
Leone’s is the result of one man’s passion for food
and a vision of culinary excellence. Owner/Chef Joseph
Leone grew up watching his grandmother prepare traditional Italian
meals for the family. At 10 years old, Joe began baking
Italian bread in bakeries in North Jersey. As he perfected
his skills at Italian home cooking and making “Hoboken-style”
bread, Joe knew that his future was in the Italian food business.
In 1995, he saw his training pay off—that year, Chef Leone
graduated from the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, NY. In 1997, he opened Joe Leone’s
in Point Pleasant Beach. What has happened since then
is nothing short of a childhood dream come true for Chef Leone.
