Wait staff was exceptional. The beet salad was best I've ever eaten. The risotto was scrumptious. The appetizers and gluten free options were amazing! Homemade gluten free pasta was really good.
This is hands down the best Italian place in Chicago. From the service to the food, everything is top notch. I highly recommend.
Unbelievable Italian dinner. Giovanni is like family and the entire staff is absolutely wonderful. I highly recommend making reservations well in advance because they book up quick. Everything on the menu is super good! Great vibes at Nonnina!!! 10 out of 10
Everything thing here is fantastic. The food, service, and ambiance leave absolutely nothing to be improved on. I can't say enough about this restaurant! If you haven't tried it yet, you definitely should!
Solid food for a fair price. This was my second time at Nonnina and both times I had a solid meal from start to finish. This time I got the Carbonara which had a lovely presentation, however, it was lacking the classic Carbonara flavor. The dish was good but it felt like it was missing something. The inside of the restaurant is warm and inviting and the service was great. It isn’t the most authentic Italian in the city but it’s worth a visit.
We got here after unsuccessful attempt to get a table at another restaurant near by. The place it's really nice and clean, atmosphere it's great, quiet place and good to have conversations. The food 10/10 they make their own pasta in-house every day. Jose was the one who helped us during our stay, really nice person and got me a dessert because it was my birthday (really nice of his). Overall i recommend the place, 10/10 in every aspect.
Not a fan of Italian food unfortunately but this place was okay. Not a lot of options though. Service was great and because the weather was nice, we sat outside. The bread though was amazing so fresh and yummy. The caesar salad was good but I wish there was an option for crispy chicken. Anyway if you like Italian definitely checkout this place!
- fried calamari
- the bread
- Maria mocktail
- caesar salad with grilled chicken
- fried eggplant with mozeralla cheese and arugula drizzled with balsamic vinegar
We enjoyed our food here. A bit touristy but still good which is a nice change for touristy. We mostly had appys and snacks but enjoyed it and enjoyed great service. We would go back
Fantastic Italian restaurant that feels like a 5'2" Italian grandma is in the back cooking everything. Could not say higher praise!
Beautiful spot for lunch! The interior is super cozy and well decorated with foliage. Servers are also super attentive and quick to get food out.
The food was pretty good - the sea bass was pretty fresh but a little over seasoned. The pear sorbet was delicious though! It was really great value for a restaurant week lunch.
The Squid ink spaghetti was really good. The spicy cauliflower side went well with it. Would be curious to try some other items next time I'm in Chicago.
I made a reservation for four people, but only three of us ended up going for dinner. You will see the bill shows four guests, but I guess it shows that because the reservation was for four. This place has a nice cozy atmosphere, it’s not noisy so that was great. The staff are all friendly and have a positive attitude. This is an Italian restaurant, the food was pretty good, it’s not the best in the city, but we enjoyed it. I really liked the grilled Octopus appetizer so I may go back and order a few of those and some drinks. The margaritas were good as well. For our entrees, the three of us ordered a Margherita pizza, Gnocchi and a Pappardelle. All the entrees were tasty. My wife and daughter split a gelato which had three scoops and I ordered a pear sorbet which was good, that was a first, never had a pear sorbet before. Our bill for three people came to $177 not including the tip. None of us have any complaints about this place and we will go back again.
