Leo’s was first opened in 1948 by Italian immigrants Pantaleone (Leo) Mancieri and his wife Virginia (Nonni). Established mainly as a pizzeria in the State Street section of Bristol, the restaurant quickly gained a local following and served as a popular lunch destination for workers and families alike. Leo and Virginia, along with sons Mario and Reno, worked tirelessly to produce great fresh 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 passes away, and in the year 2000 Leo’s grandson, Paul Mancieri, relocated to 365 Hope Street in the heart of historic downtown Bristol. Paul and his wife Adriana pride themselves on bringing back the spirit and the recipes of the pizzeria ran by Leo and Nonni. Welcome to Leo’s Ristorante! Enjoy our family recipes, preserved for three generations and plated with care and love by Paul, Adriana and their staff.

    A late lunch after a trip to Blithewold gardens in Bristol and Leo’s sounded interesting. Greeting, service and food were excellent. Welcoming and comfortable. Will definitely add to our list whenever we return to Bristol!

    Both waiter and chef confused eggplant parmigiana and veal parmigiana. When we began eating and discovered they’d been confused we sent them back. Instead of fresh new dishes, untouched, by anyone, they removed cut portions and added more hot pasta sauce.

    My husband and I visited Leo's for the first time on 8/10/24 and dined inside. There was some inconsistency with service. Our server did not offer the nightly specials to us or a glass for my husband's beverage, which other nearby tables received. The food was OK but my tortellini was over-cooked.

    He food is outstanding … an Italian cook knows good Italian food in a restaurant. Everything was delicious. The cocktails were ok and the back room could definitely use an upgrade AC looked broken with parts hanging off and the walls could use clean in and fresh coat of paint. However, the food is so delicious that ambiance and decor is dismissed s soon as you take a bite.
    Leo's RistoranteResponded on July 28, 2024
    Thank you for your review! We appreciate the compliments on the food :) and we'll definitely take a look at the AC to make sure it's working properly.
