Nona’s Bistro is a charming concept with undeniable potential, but our experience fell short of expectations. While the ambiance and setting hinted at something special, the execution left much to be desired.
The Setting:
The bistro boasts beautiful landscaping and a quirky appeal, nestled in what feels like a cozy backyard. However, the intimate vibe we anticipated was overshadowed by the sheer number of tables crammed into the small space. For couples at two-tops, the proximity to other diners—just a few feet away—made it impossible to enjoy a private conversation without raising our voices.
Service:
The service was, unfortunately, the biggest letdown. Despite the restaurant being busy, there was only one server managing over 30 patrons in a garage-like space. This resulted in extensive wait times: our visit stretched to 3.5 hours, with long gaps between interactions. Drinks were delayed, with only one round served throughout the evening because we saw our server just once every 40–50 minutes. Addressing issues, like a burned chicken entrée, proved impossible due to the lack of attention.
The Food and Drinks:
The menu features a good drink selection, but the food was underwhelming. The chicken dish arrived burned, and overall, the flavors failed to justify the high prices. Our order—a mix of two small plates, one medium, one large, a dessert, and four drinks—came to $160. While the cost might be reasonable for a premium dining experience, it felt steep given the subpar service and chaotic atmosphere.
Overall:
Nona’s Bistro has all the ingredients for a standout experience: a unique location, quirky charm, and beautiful surroundings. However, the overcrowded space, insufficient staffing, and inconsistent food quality make it difficult to recommend. With better management and attention to detail, this bistro could shine, but as it stands, it’s more frustrating than delightful.
