Ledo Pizza — Restaurant in Frederick

I have concerns about food safety at this location. My boyfriend and his son ate there together today. This is the only thing they've eaten together during the last week and today. They both had abdominal cramping and severe diarrhea within 60 minutes of eating pepperoni pizza at this Ledos. He called to report this to the manager/owner but she was rude and told him it takes 7-8 hours after consuming food for foodborne illness symptoms to appear. This is inaccurate information. Staphylococcus Aureus can create symptoms within 30 minutes. It concerns me that a restaurant owner does not know this food safety information or refuses to take responsibility for error in food storage or preparation. Serving safe food is essentially the greatest priority at a restaurant. When we called her the second time and shared this with her she thanked us for explaining it and stated that it is nice to learn new things. . Sadly, Ledos was a weekly outing for them. Previous to this they would have highly rated this location. Due to getting a foodborne illness from eating there and the lack of knowledge about food safety, they will not be returning.

If you've experienced similar symptoms to this you should report it to the Frederick County...

I wasn't planning on leaving a review, however, that all changed when a very sweet man named Daniel, who is an employee but was off the clock, made the three of us beautiful origami cranes. He walked by our table with a bag and asked us if we would be interested in having a piece of origami. He waited until we were finished with our meal completely and he confirmed this, before asking which was incredibly thoughtful.

We said yes, as my son was so excited to see the origami. He pulled a chair over and made an origami crane, showing my son how to make the wings flap, before giving it to him. The food was okay, the cheese was a bit skimpy and the whole piece of cheese would slide off each slice after only one bite BUT what made the visit special was Daniel's thoughtfulness.

That small piece of origami had made our night and we won't forget that experience. He is such a sweet person. He said that he has been working there for many many years and busses tables. I hope that by leaving this review, that he will be recognized, for going above and beyond for customers and making them want to come back. Thank you Daniel and we love...

I had another fantastic experience at this restaurant! Of course the salads and pizza are so very tasty, but what really makes my experience is the amazing service by their best server, Danielle! She is so attentive, great listener when taking my orders, energetic, personable, quick in bringing the food, she checks in at the table regularly, the food comes out perfect and you just love the overall experience! What a wonderful young lady she is! I marvel at how she can be so good at what she does and still Danielle is the most sweet, kind, respectful and interested in every one of her customers! I heard she has worked at this restaurant for over 10 years or maybe even longer than that! That says everything! If I were you, call ahead of time to see if she is working that night because you definitely want to have the best service from the best person you could possibly have to wait on you! Keep up your greatness Ledo Frederick! You know it's all about your food and most importantly...it's all about the best experience...
