The pasta dish which bears the name of Nino's is a recipe from Mama Noviello.

Had the toro tuna flight, delicious. The salmon skin salad, crispy strips of the skin atop iceberg, very nice. The monkfish liver salad was tantalizing , medallions of monkfish liver on cucumber slices with a tangy ponzu sauce. The server was polite, professional, there when needed him.

Outstanding food and service. Everything from A to Z, including drinks, the sashimi choices, and the grilled food was flavorful, fresh, and used top-quality ingredients. Our server was helpful and wonderful. She helped us navigate a rather long and daunting menu of many good choices.
