Léon 1909

In summer 2022, Valerie Mnuchin and her father Robert Mnuchin debuted Léon, their first independent restaurant located on Shelter Island. Named after Valerie’s paternal grandfather, whose affinity for romantic European adventures and seaside destinations inform the restaurant’s setting, Léon is an inviting homage to the past with warm, natural materials and nods to unfussy, countryside French and Italian fare. A wood-burning hearth at the heart of the restaurant serves as its anchor, inspiring a Provençal-style menu showcasing regional ingredients.
