About this restaurant

  • Lively
  • Charming
  • Neighborhood gem
Many restaurants in Little Italy have become destinations, among them the Busalacchi family's Nonna. The rustic décor features a relaxed country-style feel throughout the restaurant, including the delightful patio. The wonderfully welcoming atmosphere celebrates yet another delicious Sicilian food lineup, including pizzas and all that you would expect from an authentic Italian menu. The terrific entrées show the Sicilian influence, and fill the restaurant with great aromas.

We would love to hear your feedback on your experience.

    Two members of our party were vegan, two were not. The non-vegans were happy with their meal, the vegans were not. Our server pointed out only one item on the menu that could be made vegan, though we did discover one other on the menu that seemed like an obvious choice. We were told there was no bread option available for vegans. There is bread, but it is only used for bruschetta. The vegan meals were small and unsatisfying, so we can't recommend this restaurant for groups with varied dietary needs.

    Service wasnt great. Server spoke maybe 2 sentences to us but was very vibrant with others who were clearly regulars. They messed up our order with no apology. Food was amazing.

    All our meals were fantastic but the lobster ravioli were the best I ever had and a nice portion. The Forcaccio bread was delicious. Margaret is the best waitress, been there since they opened. Food at Nonna’s is consistently great.
