Cena squisita con piatti della tradizione. Siamo stati consigliati nella scelta dei piatti, con una accurata descrizione delle portate. Tutto buonissimo, abbiamo preso due primi, un secondo e due torte. Ottimo il rapporto qualità - prezzo.

Ristorante storico nel centro di Mantova di cucina tipica e tradizionale locale. Il cibo è molto buono e lo staff è cordiale ed accogliente. Salame, agnoli in brodo e torta dei Gonzaga tutto ottimo. Ho mangiato senza prenotare, ma aspettando 20 minuti. Ci sono pochi posti a sedere quindi consiglio di prenotare. Prezzi super onesti. La vetrina dei dolci è molto invitante tanto che ne avrei assaggiati due! Sicuramente consigliato. Tornerò di sicuro.

Consigliato da un amico che aveva vissuto a Mantova. Cucina locale di altissimo livello. Tutti piatti con prodotti di ottima qualità, servizio impeccabile e veloce. Consigliatissimo

Leoncino Rosso è un ristorante casereccio di cucina tipica mantovana che conquista per la sua autenticità. Il locale è piccolo, accogliente e tipico delle osterie di una volta: si respira un’aria semplice e genuina che fa sentire subito a casa. Lo staff è gentile e disponibile, il cibo è ottimo e preparato nel rispetto della tradizione. Anche il rapporto qualità-prezzo è davvero conveniente. Consiglio di prenotare con molto anticipo, perché i posti sono pochi e molto richiesti.

Io e la mia famiglia abbiamo pranzato in questo ristorante durante il nostro soggiorno a Mantova, e ci siamo trovati molto bene. Il locale è piccolo, intimo e confortevole, il cibo ottimo, con pietanze tipiche della zona, il personale è cordiale e efficiente. Super consigliato anche per il prezzo. Un consiglio se possibile meglio prenotare, perché appunto essendo piccolo i posti vanno a ruba. Noi siamo passati e abbiamo bloccato il posto circa un ora prima.

Trattoria tipica Mantovana , si trova nel centro storico. Io e mia moglie abbiamo condiviso un piatto di formaggio misti accompagnato da una superba mostarda, un piatto di riso alla pilota e un piatto di pasta ripiena al sugo di noci concludendo la cena con un'ottima sbrisolona accompagnata da vino passito. Tutto molto buono...

Atmosfera unica, nel cuore del centro storico di Mantova. Osteria come quelle di una volta, col bancone in mezzo alla sala e i liquori alle spalle. Cibo buono e abbondante. Risotto alla Mantovana strepitoso, così come i tortelli alla zucca. Saporito il coniglio e lo spezzatino. Consiglio la cheese cake zucca e amaretti, davvero squisita

Nice traditional food, great taste and fairly good price. In the photo we have pumpkin ravioli (they got amaretto and sweet mustard) and rabbit with olives.

Malin Wickberg

Veeery nice. Thank you very much. We had an excellent lunch. Stracotto mantovano, tortellini con erbe amare e cottechino con fagioli. All excellent. Very nice people. If I can find I'll come back!

In my week-long trip centred on Ferrara, Bologna, and Mantova, the food that I had in this restaurant was by far the best value for the money. Honest, local home-cooked dishes, using quality ingredients and fairly priced. I had macaroni with horse meat and rabbit with olives for dinner and came for lunch the next day, trying the tortellini in brodo and a steak in marsala sauce. I rarely order first and second course as well as dessert but I did that here for both lunch and dinner. The owner of the restaurant was also very charming and kind.

I love this traditional Mantovani osteria. I would eat here every night if I lived here. Meal after meal, they achieve perfection. Perfection of taste, quality, portion size, their beautiful wines and desserts, and the service is as warm and professional as it comes. Thank you for all the amazing meals.

Justin Seibert

Super cute, cozy restaurant. The clear rigatoni soup was delicious (let them scoop the cheese in) and the gnocchi was excellent. Will be going back on this trip.

Giulio de Vito

Very good quality/price ration. The service is very nice and in the heart of Mantova!

Johanna Pinter

Nice little place, great for lunch. Service was prompt and friendly. We had two pasta dishes which were both delicious. Prices very reasonable.

Theofrastos Vamvourellis

Authentic local food, nice and causy atmosphere, true and friendly space, cute place, amazing experience, good prices although not so big portions. Some plates like scalopigna in wine could be a bit better. But on the total, the experience of this place is forbidden to be missed. Bravo!

Amit Bluman

Absolutely fantastic! I suggest to reserve a place or to come early for dinner as the place is packed with a lot of local people even on the middle of the week. The staff were friendly and the food was outstanding! The Tortelli di Zucca (Pumpkin based Ravioli) is LEGENDARY (although it is sweet). And all other Raviolis were awesome.

We enjoyed 2 meals at Leoncino Rosso during our visit. Both were absolutely fantastic!!! If you want to eat earlier it’s highly recommended to get a reservation. For lunch I arrived at 1:30 and waited 10-15 minutes for a table. The staff were friendly and foot was outstanding! We tried dinner as a group of 5 without a reservation and were told to return at 9pm. The next night we arrived at 9 and were seated immediately. Highly recommend for those visiting Mantua!

The food is always excellent. It is not pretentious and shows how the food can (and should) be the star of a restaurant. I would recommend a reservation since they always fill up quickly. They do offer outdoor seating when the weather is nice. We have eaten here 8-10 times within the year, and they consistently deliver quality food at a very resonable price. A true gem of Mantua!

Tasty food and good quality for price ratio. Not sure if everything was freshly prepared

Friendly service and superb stracotto. One of the best ever. The dessert was average, but the main course deserves top rates

Good value and the food was nice. Good choice for authentic local food.

Lovely food. Had Spinach pasta and Veal stew. Both very nice with house wine. Recommend

Ian Webster

A smallish, family run, no frills restaurant, the service was friendly and efficient, the food was very reasonably priced, portion sizes are good and the menu serves up many regional dishes that you aren't likely to find on many 'tourist menus'. It gets very busy and bookings are recommended on weekends etc.

theo brom

Unpretentious place, I had very good stracotto from horse meat, like 70% of the other guests. 4,5 EUR for half a liter of vino della casa was very convincing. Great atmosphere outside. The waiters are not too attentive. Really recommended.

We enjoyed our evening . The restaurant was full of locals , no turists . The food was good , we did not book , just turned up early . An enjoyable last night in Msntua .

Personale gentile, Servizio un pò lento, locale piccolo, carino con tavoli molto vicini. Alle 21:00 non abbiamo trovato quasi più nulla del menù, se si vuole scegliere bisogna andare alle 19:30. Prezzi medio bassi, porzioni giuste (tranne le tagliatelle in foto).

Mi hanno consigliato questo posto in centro il locale datato ma ci sta essendo locale storico il cibo buono ma mi aspettavo davvero di piu antipasto di affettati di qualità vino della casa buono (lambrusco) primo troppo in là di cottura tant'è che si sono aperti quasi tutti gli agnolotti lo stracotto in diversi punti bruciacchiato e amaro il dolce buono caffè e amaro tutto per la modica cifra di 66€ Direi che in finale il costo è stato un po alto per quello che mi hanno servito sarò stato sfortunato peccato perché me ne hanno parlato bene ma forse il cuoco non era in giornata Avrei davvero voluto dare di piu ....

Was having dinner on the 10th of July, extraordinary warm evening. Food was average; an highlight on Ravioli Amari (stuffed with salvia and rosmarino), and a lowlight (semifreddo alla pesca), pretty “seasoned”, likely due to temperature. And here the good news finish. If I have to define the place and its atmosphere in one word, I would say: sad. Furniture, setup of tables and even the attitude of the staff was to me sad. If you decide to get there, it is suggested to book the table.

It’s homey and I guess what you imagine as a “traditional Mantovan “ restaurant. Small but friendly and wine on tap ! Limited menu and we only had mains of Veal Stew…excellent and Scallopina Limone…

Siamo statiinvitati da degli amici a passare Ina giornata a mantova e abbiamo pranzato qui. I piatti dovevano essere tutti uguali per non mandare in confusione la cucina e cosí optiamo per un Risotto alla mantovana. Non so se fosse cosí proprio ma di Risotto non aveva nulla. Era un riso bollito con aggiunta di carne (mi hanno detto salsiccia, ma a me sembrava macinato) bollita, senza aggiunta di aromi o quant'altro. Il risotto risultava: scotto, scondito e slegato. Ho dovuto aggiungere del parmigiano e dell'olio per dare un pò di sprint al piatto. Sarà che forse abbiamo sbagliato noi la scelta del piatto. Il locale cmq caratteristico. Poi mi chiedo una cosa: ma si può presentare un bagno del genere?posso capire che il locale è vecchio, ma avere un bagno alla turca, con degli Scalini all'interno, La porta che devi spingere e a ridosso della cucina. Ma i controlli li fanno a Mantova? Sono a norma? Una persona con Handicap come fa ad andare in bagno? Una mamma con un bambino che deve cambiare il pannolino?

The restaurant has a vintage decor that feels stuck in the past. The pumpkin ravioli were fairly good, though slightly undercooked. However, the desserts were disappointing; it would be better to focus on perfecting a few options rather than offering many that are poorly made. Additionally, the staff should treat customers with more respect. Lastly, the restroom was not clean, which was quite off-putting.

I can't say anything about the food, I didn't get to eat here. But the lady's face when I asked if they were open couldn't be any unfriendlier, she seemed really bothered to have to talk to me. I wouldn't eat here even if for free.

Lottie Manahan

Don’t be fooled by the appearance of the outside, other than the guy with glasses that popped round the staff didn’t crack as single smile. The food was below average , wine , meat dry and frozen spoiled , pasta was very average considering we’re in the heart of Italy. Such a shame we wasted our only evening in mantua here, leaving this review because I don’t want others to endure the poor quality of food.
