Absolutely amazing experience! Planning a secret 80th birthday celebration for my father from 200 miles away in NJ, they made this event memorable in many ways. Jerry, Alyssa, and the whole family and staff went over the top. They provided us with a dedicated area and servers that didn’t miss a step. The texture, temperature, and seasoning of each dish were delectable and authentic. Jerry’s meatballs were all that. Cannoli’s the best we’ve had. Great ambiance, great service, and sumptuous authentic Italian food. This is easily one of, if not, the best meals we’ve ever eaten. I cannot recommend this place enough! Assolutamente favoloso!

Nice fresh airy restaurant. Good choice on the menu. Our friend needs a gluten free diet, there was a few options but we felt there could have a couple more entrees.
3 of us choose pizzas, they were all excellent including the GF one.
The service was good until the end of the meal when we had to wait a little while longer than expected to get the bill.
I would definitely go back.

Ate here on a Saturday evening around 5:00. We were able to get seated right away with a party of six, although within an hour the place was very busy. Our server was very accommodating and polite. The food wasn’t the best Italian I’ve ever had. The red sauce is a little odd. My pizza was good. My husband did not care for the spaghetti and meatballs. I had the tiramisu for dessert and it was delicious. My friend ordered the cannolis which she also enjoyed. We enjoyed the music that played during the evening and the inside has a lovely ambiance. We would probably eat here again.

Could not be more disappointed with this restaurant it has been one of my favorites for years even when they were on the High Street. I went there for my 70th birthday last year so again my birthday this year I picked the restaurant and with a few friends, a total of six, we decided to have dinner. I should’ve realized early on when I ordered tequila on the rocks with a splash of Grand Minier and fresh lime when it was brought to the table it was Blanco with no sign Of the grand Mère and when I tasted it was just Tequila. I always hate making a scene but I did say to the waiter, who was very cute and very nice and we found out at the end of the dinner he had been there five years, which I couldn’t believe because he was so incompetent,
The drink was right. He says I’ll check with the bartender and he took my drink. He brought the drink back and proceeded to tell me they don’t have any Grand Mere, isn’t that something I should have found out before he even brought me the drink? How about some Quantro? Took my drink again, came back With my drink, and said they have no Quantro, but they do have triple sec I said fine. It was so much triple sec I could not taste the tequila. The rest of the dinner went downhill it took us an hour to order. We were there at seven and we didn’t get our dinners till nine!!
when we first got there, I specifically asked him about a veal dish. He checked with the chef and said no problem. Then he proceeded to tell us when he was taking our order that they ran out of veal.!!
As we waited for our meals he never took care of water on the table or if we needed more bread we all had entrées some had appetizers. We all had two drinks so the bill was hefty and we left a decent tip of 15% which I think should’ve been less but we all have worked in restaurants when we were younger, so we never tip under 20%, and when it was all said and done and the bill was paid that’s when the owner came over to see how things were, I guess he figured out we were not happy. The most disappointing was Mr. Jerry's attitude, he made excuses and all he needed to say was I’m very sorry you had a bad experience.
I will say they make great meatballs but that is not a good enough reason to return😔

As soon as you walk into Longo's, you feel welcomed! If you happen to catch the owner, Jerry, that welcome is magnified 10x. It's a real, authentic welcome, almost like family! The food itself is delicious. Highly recommend the Longo Salad or any pasta dish with Longo's famous meatballs. And, of course, the desserts: their cannoli is fabulous. Great environment, great food.A great Italian Restaurant. I highly recommend a visit!

We were staying at the Weekapaug Inn and decided to eat at Longo Ristorante & Pizzeria on evening. We ate a delicious salad (the Longo salad) and a Margherita pizza. Both were perfect. The restaurant has a very fun vibe. The night we ate there the Celtics were playing, so lot's of enthusiasm!!!! There's a nice wine list and they are not chintzy with a pour. All of the pastas looked fabulous.

Family owned and run. Almost all the dishes are genuine Italian fare and high quality.
A smart modern decor and good reception and service adds to the experience.
Note: get the fifth star by upgrading the bread which is more American gummy bread than anything an Italian would recognize!

could be a good place but management has to step up and do their job. Now the salad was fine but the lasagna was cool even to the touch. Had to get it reheated. Meatballs were fine,pasta was mushy.
no we did not get mixed drinks had soda instead. can>t hurt coke.
no dessert as we did not feel like eating anything else. Server was Ok. If I see a good review later we will come back to try it again.

This is one of the hottest eateries in Westerly. I love the food, the music and Jerry Longo and his two daughters. I go there at least 4 times a month. You have to get there early or you have to wait over an hour.

Okay, my wife and I celebrated our 26th Anniversary Tonight at Longo's with a few family members.It was not a good visit.First issues was the drink my wife ordered was a Sea Breeze which was absolutely miserably made.A different drink was was decided on to replace it and it was good.Then the fact that we waited more then a half hour for anything to be brought out after that was a bit annoying.We had to ask for bread which took several minutes to arrive.Finally when the salads arrived we were all very hungry and finished them enviously. After a while we had our entrees start to arrive. Myself and another gentleman asked for the beef tips special which came with mushrooms and a sauce on Penne. I was as unappealing as could be to look at what we were served.Dark and stark - no presentation at all and believe me this needed some type of help to make one want to eat it.My wifes and her sister's Lagsagna was not hot and was sent back to the kitchen. After at least 10-15 minutes later the waitress returned with a new order for both ladies.My wife's dish had a major difference in the size of the portion of Lagsagna and it was indeed quite a bit less.My wife waited for grated cheese after she asked about it took a long time for the waitress to bring it. This fell quite short of our other experiences here at Longo's and the timing was awful - our anniversary dinner was a flop. I do have to mention that we were given a complimentry dessert pizza for our troubles. Howevery wife was still hungry after dinner and I was an unhappy husband. So in closing if you go to Longo's for dinner I hope you have a better time of it then we did on 10/24/19 - Bud

It’s Saturday night and the place was busy. BUT, the service was horrible. I watched as tables sat for 10 minutes without being bused while people were standing and waiting out the door: We ordered a salad to share and eggplant Parmesan. The drinks and salad came relatively quickly although the waitress came back and asked me what I ordered to drink after I already told her. We waited forever for the eggplant and my husband asked the waitress where it was. She said: your order is next. I watched the orders coming out of the kitchen - the food never came. We had to leave for a party. The owner said: if you were in a rush, why did you come here to eat? WRONG ANSWER. We sat down at 7:30 and by 8:20 hadn’t gotten our main course. Really?
And...when I went to the rest room, two empty toilet paper rolls. My waitress was standing outside the bathroom and I asked her if she could give me some. She opened a new package and gave me 1 tiny roll. I offered to put another in the bathroom but she refused to give me an additional one.
Ridiculous. No matter how good the food is - not worth the service.

We went here based on reviews. A lot of people like the food. And let me say the food was good when we finally got it. We were two couples with two kids. I ordered the littles food and it came somewhat promptly. Then we ordered drinks. When they took a while we were told there was a reason. We ordered food and got our appetizers somewhat promptly. Then we waited for our food. And waited and waited. We got asked by one waitress of she could wrap things - which would have been nice except that we hadn't gotten our entrees yet. Our waitress was not checking in with us. By this time The kids had had it. The least the restaurant could have done was offer to comp something for the wait. We had read that this could be a problem. It is. The food is great if you have the time and patience to wait for it. But be warned, you will wait.

Never tried the food. Hostess and her friends drove us away with their crude language used in front of our children.
