You will feel like you stepped into your own Nonna's house. A delectable menu, fabulous wine selection, all wrapped into the service you would expect from the name. Sitting on the porch, sharing a meal with my daughter, made us feel like we were home. One of my favorites to visit and recommend!

Great Service, Outdoor Seating on Porch & Food Very Good. Been awhile since we dined at Nonna. Four of us enjoyed lunch - some of the best curry chicken salad! Clam chowder was also great - a bit on the brothie side which I like. French onion soup was tasty though would prefer the onions a bit more caramelized. Chopped salad was better with house vinaigrette - which was excellent, though beets lacked much in taste. Enjoyed a Bottle of bubbles - making for a really nice summer lunch.

Make a reservation! This is our first time here and it was highly recommended. We were able to get a same day reservation, but the restaurant is tiny and was packed! Menu is pretty extensive overall. We both felt the pasta dishes seemed lackluster so we opted to not order from that portion of the menu, but we have been told it's the best Italian in GR, so we'll have to try at some point! We started with the salmone plate which was pretty good- salad, smoked salmon, soft boiled egg, capers, lemon. Felt like something was missed. We also had bread with the olive tapenade oil. This was pretty delicious and neither of us like olives. The lamb shank and special short rib were good. The sauces seemed the exact same. The mashed potatoes in the lamb dish were subbed for broccolini. The portions were massive and we both had leftovers. Overall the dishes were fine but I wouldn't order again. I would order the tiramisu a thousand times. It was perfectly light, coffee flavored but not overwhelming. The chocolate sauce was a perfect touch. I am excited to try more of the dessert options in the future!

This place is always amazing. In the summer they have plenty of outdoor seating and the staff is incredible. The food is always perfectly made. I've had the osso bucco, chicken piccata, and beef Bourguignon. The meat is always fall apart tender with a very savory flavor. In the winter or fall when there is no outdoor seating it's a very small area with bar seating and some tables for large and small groups. It's a must if you are in Ada. We got in easy at the bar on a Saturday before noon but I would suggest reservations. Alyssa, the bartender is so friendly and makes some great cocktails.

Nice night at Nonna's - can't believe how busy it was for a Wednesday night, not too many options in Ada I suppose. Went with a few apps (Burrata & Calamari) both good. Personally I went with the Puttsnesca - a little on the spicy side so beware. Healthy portion - I'd get it again. Wrapped up with some tiramisu which was pretty good.

A friend of mine took me to Nonna's for my birthday recently and we enjoyed our experience so much:)! Walking up the restaurant had me feeling like I was entering someone's house, but after you walk in you see a bar and a bunch of seating. Since it's wintertime it's not open but it looked as if they have a nice patio area for nicer weather days:) The inside felt a little more upscale than I expected and the decorations felt very festive for the holidays. We made a reservation that was honored as soon as we arrived. Our server quickly got us some waters and gave us plenty of menus to look at. We had a specials menu, cocktail menu, wine list, and a huge dinner menu. Looking over the menu was overwhelming only because of all the exciting options to choose from. My friend and I are big on Italian and any kind of pasta dish so it was a challenge to pick just one thing!:) For an appetizer we ordered the mussels! These were amazing! Not at all fishy and the mussels were very succulent and flavorful. The menu says they are cooked in white wine, garlic, and a spicy tomato sauce. I could honestly drink that broth .. it was that good. My friend ordered the Penne Alla Vodka which had asparagus, vodka cream sauce, and a smoked salmon that really made the dish have a smoky flavor in general. I took a bite and it was delicious! I ordered the Shrimp Pasta off the specials menu which had big and juicy tiger shrimp, bacon, garlic, shallots, baby spinach, with fettuccine, and slow roasted tomato cream sauce. This dish had me drooling all over the place. Yum! Looking over the dessert menu, my friend ordered the creme brûlée which my friend said tasted more custard-y (but still great) and I ordered the tiramisu which was a pretty large piece with lots of chocolate drizzle on top and I ate the entire thing. The server boxed our leftover food for us and she was very on top of getting thing out to us in a timely manner and always had our waters topped off. I will 100% return here! Definitely seems like a local favorite as it was busy and I recommend making a reservation.
