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.

Always great food and service. Location is excellent in a quaint downtown setting located overlooking the bay. Especially nice in the summer to sit on the back deck.

My wife and I went for Valentine’s Day, and the experience was excellent. The food was outstanding, and they were very accommodating to her gluten allergy. The service was also great—our server frequently checked in to ensure we had everything we needed. We will definitely be returning!

Valentine’s day dinner was excellent! We had not been to this restaurant before. Off Thames Street in Bristol, drive thru the arch way toward the water to find ample parking. We were greeted by the hostess and sat inside near the fireplace. We ordered apps dinner drinks and desert. Our server was Matt who was friendly and answered all our questions. Great food drinks and service. This and a waterfront view too! A+ experience.
