Very noisy restaurant. No atmosphere. Food was just so so . They brought our entrée out while we were still having appetizers, we felt very rushed?. also ordered a second cocktail which never arrived, but we were dying to get out of there anyway.

Another great meal at Nonna’s. The filet mignon and Veal Osso Bucco were delicious and Greg our server did a great job. It has a beautiful atmosphere by the fireplace, great food and service. Always a good time. Chocolate Martinis are also a plus!!

As usual I very much enjoyed my meal. Due to having Celiac disease I can only eat the gluten free penne which you cook perfectly with your great sauses. It would be soooo great if you got GF seasoned bread crumbs so I could order your great chicken parm.-baked clams-stuffed mushrooms It would also be great if you had an option to get GF bread at the beginning of the meal with the cocktails ...toasted w/butter,,, with your homade eggplant tompinade. I know there might be a cost for it, but if you keep it reasonable restricted eaters like myself would not complain

My husband took me here last night for my birthday, along with my cousin and his wife. One of my favorite places to eat! Great food and drinks! Their French Kiss martini is so delicious! There aren’t many restaurants that can make this tasty drink. The only reason I didn’t give it five stars for service was because our waiter never came back to our table to take our food order after bringing the drinks. I had to flag down one of the managers who then took our order. Everything from the bread to the dessert was fantastic! I highly recommend this restaurant for dinner as well as for parties since I had my daughter’s baby shower here last month and it was wonderful! My friends and family couldn’t stop talking about how good the food and service was.
