About this restaurant

Good for special occasions
Neighborhood gem
Great for fine wines

Nino's is the oldest, family-owned Italian Restaurant in Atlanta, Georgia. We provide a true classic and authentic Italian dining experience, thoughtfully prepared and attentively served. Nino's Cucina Italiana has a warm, welcoming setting that's perfect for family meals & gatherings. Parking is by valet only. No cash is accepted for bills. Nino's, opened in 1968, has been owned and operated by Antonio Noviello since 1982. Originally from the Amalfi Coast of southern Italy, Antonio worked in Monte Carlo, then Bermuda where he met his wife Helen, an Atlanta resident. After moving to Atlanta in 1981, Antonio's life-long dream of owning his own restaurant became a reality when he purchased Nino's. For more than forty-one years, Antonio has taken pride in serving authentic Italian Cuisine made with fresh, imported ingredients and cooked to order for each guest. In 2006 Antonio's middle daughter Alessandra became the manager and has since taken over with her husband Micah. Alessandra and Micah take pride in keeping the long-standing traditions and reputation of serving exceptional Italian cuisine alive. Nino's has attracted devoted locals who return time and again, along with a long list of who had heard of Nino's reputation and stopped in to sample the fare. Many of the dishes on Nino's menu are original recipes brought from Italy by Antonio and his brother Giuseppe. Antonio's favorite dishes are those named after his daughters, Gabriella, Alessandra, and Michela; his wife Elena (Helen); his brother Giuseppe; his brother-in-law Paola, and himself and the grandchildren. The pasta dish which bears the name of Nino's is a recipe from Mama Noviello. Antonio, Alessandra and Micah invite you to relax and savor some of the great culinary treasures of Italy in a memorable dining experience, at Atlanta's Oldest Italian Ristorante!

Everything was absolutely delicious. The fresh made pasta was incredible and the sauces were excellent. I had the Lasagna and the Italian Sausage in it had such a good flavor. The portions were very generous compared to some other restaurants with dishes in that price range. My wife and I both had leftovers. The atmosphere was so nice and very classy. We had an excellent evening and would happily return for more!

For the second time in a row the food was incredible and the service was absolutely horrific. It’s not just one waiter it’s the whole staff. Rude, slow, dismissive. On our last trip we even overheard them mocking us behind the bar for ordering espresso martinis 30 minutes before closing time. Hats off the to chef but the service and operations staff are a joke. Take out only from now on.

It was an absolute gem of a family restaurant! The vodka pasta and pasta vongole were outstanding, full of flavor, and perfectly cooked. Our server was excellent, warm, attentive, and knowledgeable. It was truly a memorable dining experience from start to finish. Can't wait to return!

I am Italian. This is the absolute worst Italian restaurant. I was hoping for a remake of my mom’s and grandmother’s Italian dishes. This was a horrible miss. So disappointing.
