Leo's Ristorante serves fresh homemade Italian American cuisine. Leo's was first opened in 1948 by Italian immigrants Pantaleone (Leo) Mancieri and his wife Gina. In the years after World War II the restaurant served as a popular destination for workers and families alike. Leo and Gina, along with sons Reno and Mario, worked tirelessly to produce great Italian favorites and create a friendly environment for their customers. The original Leo's remained open until 1976 when the family decided to close after Leo passed away. In the year 2000 Leo's grandson, Paul Mancieri, along with his father Mario reopened the business in the heart of historic downtown Bristol. Over 20 years in, Paul and his wife Adriana pride themselves on bringing back the spirit and the recipes of the pizzeria originally ran by Leo and Gina. Welcome to Leo's Ristorante! Enjoy our family recipes, preserved for three generations and served with care and love by Paul, Adriana and their staff.

We had a reservation and the hostess was so sweet- got us seated right away! It took a bit for a server to come over and she says to us," I guess I'm your server today." What?!? RUDE! She failed...

The food is ok. But not worth the extremely high price. Buyer beware. They charge 75 cents for plastic utensils on take out. They don't mention it until you're in the checkout page. The indoors...
