Why is it masculine?
Ristorante is masculine. While it does derive from the Italian verb "ristorare" (to restore/refresh), the masculine gender is primarily due to Italian's inheritance of the Latin neuter gender system. In Italian, most neuter nouns from Latin (ending in -um, -e, -al) became masculine in the singular form. "Ristorante" follows the common pattern of masculine nouns ending in -e in Italian, which absorbed the neuter gender from Latin.
