Came to New York for a wedding and were staying in Brooklyn. Meet friends from Queens who pick this restaurant. Very nice... restaurant with a very good menu and extremely reasonable prices. Service definitely lacks, maybe due to shortstaffing. Started with a Margherita pizza, tomato, mozzarella, and basil that looked more like a flatbread, very good. Mywife ordered for 2 appetizers, Melanzana Pisana, breaded eggplant, heirloom tomatoes, bufala mozzarella, baby arugula, oil andbalsamic. Also Capesante, seared bay sea scallops, pea and pepper puree, smoked porcini mushroom, and crispy prosciutto. Bothwere great. I tried the Grigliata Mista, grilled calamari, octopus, shrimp, swordfish, extra virgin olive oil, and lemon.Superb and a large portion. For dessert, we have the Bomba and Affogato, both were superb. I truly recommend La NonnaRistorante & Bar and if they solve the staffing problem, it would be a 5 * restaurant. Read more

We celebrated our twin daughter first communion at la Nonna. Words can not describe how beautiful it was. We had a wonderful... afternoon with a lot of guests from Europe and North America and Miss Anna organized an amazing day. The staff at La Nonna issuper professional and this Restaurant is so beautiful. Like our 8 year old twin daughters said..... Warm and cozy. We all hadthe time of our lives. I highly recommend La Nonna. And again, thank you Ms Anna and your staff for this wonderful day. We arecoming back ????? Read more
Wanted to love it, but can’t. Out of two apps, 2 dinners, and one dessert only one was more than ‘meh, ok’. The food... isn’t bad, it’s just not tasteful or good. Generic Italian defines La Nonna. Service is mediocre - drinks and apps camequick and then there was a long, unexcused wait for dinner. No apology, but they came quick to deliver a mediocre dessert for$$. Would not return. Also, if you’re expecting parking validation … google/yelp info is WRONG. Per the owner: “youneed to check our website” which is a big fail IMO. Read more
Perfect spot for date night, we went for Valentine’s Day and the ambience was even better than I imagined. The service was all... around kinda weird… which could have just been because it was Valentine’s Day? But we seldom saw our server. And apps/breadwere whisked off the table before we had a chance to say anything. Just some silly little moments. BUT! All of that evens out byhow excellent the food is and how perfect the atmosphere is. Great options for vegetarians (the eggplant parm was exactly what Ihad hoped for) and the drinks are not outrageously expensive. I would definitely recommend :-) Read more
A great quality Italian restaurant in all aspects. From the atmosphere inside the establishment, to the service, to the food.... They have many menu options to choose and they’re all high-quality. We spent the night for a birthday here and the wholeexperience was lovely. The host asked me who’s birthday it was, and they surprised us with a song when dessert arrive. Lovelyexperience at La Nonna. Read more
