“Never judge a book by its cover!” Tucked away in a warehouse in the iconic Heights this place proved to be amazing. Truly authentic, made to order, fresh Italian cuisine. The establishment has 3 bars and several rooms to be rented out for private dining or events. Equipped with a market of imported Italian delicacies and fresh gelato bar, you can’t go wrong. Not to mention the abundant choice of regional wines to pick from is incredible. 10/10 recommend if you are not in a rush and want to enjoy some delicious Italian cuisine.

My husband and I went here for date night last night and chef Timothy promised us a great night and he wasn't kidding. After talking to us he told us he told us just to leave it to him and he would surprise us and that was what we did. From start to finish everything was delicious. The fresh bread with olive oil and spices was crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. He brought a charcuterie board with the most fresh and delicious cheeses and meats and olives/ veggies. Then the tomato risotto was so good but we didn't finish it all only to leave space for more because we knew more was coming. He brought out the main dish which was included tasty octopus, fish, the best clams ever, and perfectly cooked rib eye steaks. We finished the night with some fresh Gelato i chose pistachio and pineapple cheesecake and my husband chose chocolate. We even purchased a bottle of wine. Honestly everything was exquisite and the service was superb. We're definitely coming back. I even heard the neighboring couple tell him that they had the best lasagna they had ever tasted so it wasn't just us that were happy and having a great night. I can't wait to try it oh and the pizza because it looked delicious. They had the piano playing which added some romance to the mood. We lived it! Strongly recommend it.
Wow! What a great place. The food is arguably the best in town. The pasta and pizza are wonderful. The staff are very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. They aren't only a restaurant, but also a small store as well. You can purchase oils, sauces, pasta, meats, and much more. They have an event space too that is beautiful. I wish I had known of this place earlier. My wife and I will definitely be back.
April 2022: still delicious.
My daughter and i stopped by here today and we were very impressed. They have a great wine selection, the food was perfect and the waiters were professional and polite. The decor was great and the restaurant was clean. Don't forget to get some gelato on your way out.
Staff were all friendly and extremely helpful with identifying the perfect meal for myself and my family. Not a crowded or claustrophobic place, but instead you can breathe and take in the accouterments and strong Italian theme. Every item we've had was exquisite except one time where chicken was overcooked, but the chef himself came out and fixed the problem immediately. Also, try the Gelato. To die for.
We had lunch here today and it was fantastic. The service was wonderful and the restaurant is a beautiful place. I will definitely tell my friends about it. We’ll be back!
This is such a neat place by I-10 & heights area. I've passed by driving on N. Shepard many times and got curious. I would recommend this place for family gathering as well as dates. The inside setting/atmosphere was romantic while there was a store like setting near the bar area. The hostess and waitstaff was caring and attentive. The food was OK... I can't testify to authenticity since I've never been to Italy, but I can say the food was on bland side for my taste. I ordered the lamb chops while a friend ordered the grilled shrimps & scallops risotto. The gelato was the good. I would come back to try more gelato and other items on the menu since they have happy hour is every day 4-8PM.
One of our favorite local places! We love the atmosphere featuring regional wine displays. We’ve found the food to be consistently very good and authentic. We typically go towards the latter part of the lunch hours, which yields a quiet and private experience. The lunch prices are very reasonable for the quality and quantity of food provided. The linguine with pesto, with addition of an optional protein like grilled chicken, is a standout. The pesto is a creamy and delicious adaptation. Veal Parmesan and Penne Sugo Rosa with meatballs were also excellent choices. Nundini’s is definitely on the short list of restaurants to take friends visiting from out of town.
Absolutely amazing!!! I came to Nundini's @ 10 years ago and would get their most delicious caprese sandwiches. The place has grown since then with a beautiful interior. There is an ample dining room, great private dining rooms to rent for events, a small Italian market with the best coffee (Lavazza), a deli case with classic Italian meats and cheeses and gelato. However, most importantly, the food is still amazing. We went simple and got the fettuccini Alla pana and the margarita pizza. The noodles tasted fresh and the sauce was light. There pizza was delicious too. If you are looking for classic and amazing Italian food with a great ambiance, then this is the place. The service for pick up was perfection. Everyone was friendly and helpful.
It was my first time trying out this place the food was delicious everything was excellent I had a great experience here I would totally recommend to try out. I had read a lot of bad comments about this place the past months but it’s actually great now, apparently there is a new chef😁
