Leoncino Rosso is a homey restaurant serving traditional Mantuan cuisine that captivates with its authenticity. The restaurant is small, welcoming, and typical of old-fashioned taverns: the atmosphere is simple and genuine, making you feel instantly at home.
The staff is friendly and helpful, and the food is excellent and prepared with respect for tradition. The quality-price ratio is also truly excellent. I recommend booking well in advance, as seating is limited and in high demand.

My family and I had lunch at this restaurant during our stay in Mantua, and we had a great time.
The restaurant is small, intimate, and comfortable. The food is excellent, featuring typical local dishes. The staff is friendly and efficient.
Highly recommended, especially for the price.
A word of advice: if possible, it's best to make a reservation, because it's small and seats sell out quickly. We stopped by and booked our spot about an hour early.

A typical Mantuan trattoria located in the historic center. My wife and I shared a mixed cheese platter accompanied by a superb mustard, a plate of riso alla pilota, and a plate of pasta stuffed with walnut sauce. We finished the meal with an excellent sbrisolona cake accompanied by passito wine. Everything was delicious...
