After dining at many high end restaurants over the decades, we find ourselves always going back to Nanni’s. The menu is full of delicious food choices and there are always different specials to choose from too. Everything is made to order and always freshly cooked. The kitchen is immaculate which is a top priority. We are at the point where we don’t need to frequent any other restaurants because when we have in the past, we always say, “This food was good but not nearly as good as Nanni’s. We should have just went there!” Nanni’s is the best and so is Manny, your personable host!

I have been dining at Nannis for over 20 years and I have always been extremely happy with their food and service. Nannis has an old world charm that some new restaurants try to duplicate but cannot. I look forward to my next visit to Nannis
