The Leone's built this place from scratch on Main Street in Conway, South Carolina. A family kitchen that's been feeding this town for more than two decades without ever cutting a corner.
A Northern Italian Kitchen Takes Root in the South
Leone's has been a fixture of Conway's historic downtown for over two decades — recipes that came with the family, cooked fresh every single day.

Everything Made by Hand, Every Day
Pete's meatballs are hand-rolled from veal, beef, and pork, braised in house-made marinara. The lasagna — his personal favorite — is slow-braised ragù layered between fresh pasta sheets, made to order.
