“This is food the way we like to eat,” says Joe Davi, Founding Partner at Nona Blue.Davi and Bill Bona, also Founding Partner at Nona Blue, saw American dining trending toward smaller portions with different tastes; sharing at tables had always been an option, now it was being encouraged. As the vision for Nona Blue began to come into focus, Bona and Davi began crafting their “Shareables” menu, featuring items that can be passed among an entire table or serve as a meal for a single guest.

    Nona Blue has an excellent menu. Their veggie burgers are terrific...as are their steak fries...broccoli...quinoa salad and little Greek salad! The salmon is also excellent with just the right amount of seasoning...not too salty. We can go to Nona Blue with a group of various ages and there's something for everyone. Dining at Nona Blue is always a win win.

    Amazing grouper entree. Extremely fresh and perfectly cooked. My husband got a lean, medium rare prime rib that was nicely seasoned. Their martinis are great, wine list has decent range of choices, desserts were delicious. Best if all — the service! Wait staff is warm, welcoming, efficient. Could not ask for a better evening after a day at the Players. Thank you, Nona Blue, for another wonderful experience.

    My husband, I and a friend were seated outside for lunch by the water as requested. He and I had the baja cod tacos and our friend ordered the tavern chicken salad. All three of us were very happy with our selections. Service was friendly and efficient. Pricing is a little higher than comparable restaurants for lunch and I think that's because they have one menu applicable all day. Highly recommended.

    At dinner on Saturday night the noise level was high, unlike during the week. We have noticed this problem in most restaurants. Service was superb ( Erica) and food delish. One of our favorite spots!

    Nona Blue is VERY dark inside. Watch your step in/out of booth. We both ordered Lemon Chicken. Terrible. It was extremely dry, no lemon flavor, and was place on a mound of bland mash potatoes. No green vegetable. Presentation was lackluster. The waiter asked us how were things, we said we were disappointed. NO EFFORT to improve the meal. The only positive was they refilled our drinks. Prices on most entrees were >$30-$60. Will never return.

    Sat on the patio due to the perfect weather. Nick was our server, and he was fantastic! All of his recommendations were absolutely outstanding, including the bottle of Adobe Road we ended up ordering. He was even so kind to ask if we had any food allergies. We cannot stop thinking about that carrot cake! Top notch service and top notch food. We will be back for the food and Nick’s impeccable service.

    We went for our anniversary and it was a nice place, quite loud. We asked for window views but the window coverings were closed. What I ordered off the gluten free menu turned out to have changed the recipe so my only other option was a $50 entree which was ok. But not worth the cost. We had good service and is a nice ambiance just felt more like a standard meal sadly, not worth the cost.

    We had such a good time. Our friends came in from Pennsylvania and of course the question is where to take them to dinner we wanted someplace that had a nice vibe to it. Something special a good menu, a good service and good value and good food . Blue, Nona tavern did it again And hit a home run on all items. Thank you.

    I took a friend to brunch for her birthday. We were seated outdoors along the pond, as per my request. Ava provided expert service throughout. After dropping off the check, she confessed that this was only her second day on the job. We were shocked. She was so young, friendly, and professional - impressive! We both ordered the lemon ricotta pancakes with applewood bacon and potatoes for our meals. The food was delicious and we each were given a nice sized portion! Ava checked on how we were doing a few times (not hovering, just right) and brought me two refills of decaf in a timely manner. My friend and I highly recommend Nona Blue and ask for Ava!

    Fun modern bar ambiance. Friendly and attentive service. Chris, our waiter was excellent. Menu and dishes are nice and well executed. Only negatives were they are out of the crispy artichoke and had heard rave reviews about them. The other is the menu is a bit heavy. For example, would love it if there were a few offerings on the appetizers that weren’t fried. Maybe a grilled octopus or calamari, less dips more farm fresh. Among our friends we had the calamari and tuna appetizers. Calamari was fresh, and tender. Tuna was one of the few lighter offerings and was excellent Among us we had the steak, the house brined pork chop and the scallops entrees. Every one was delicious. We hoped the scallops would be on the lighter side. They were perfectly cooked tender and juicy. But It comes with a butter cream sauce that could easily have been left out or better served in a white wine/lemon butter broth. Pork chop was outstanding. Mashed potatoes that came with the steak and pork were also a big favorite. Would definitely recommend and look forward to going back. Also great cocktail menu!
