A unique Italian gastronomic experience awaits you at Nonna, where we honor the dedication, care and love that Italian grandmothers put into each plate.

Nonna provides a unique atmosphere, full of history where you can savor Italian classic dishes made from scratch with fresh vegetables, assorted cheeses, unfiltered extra virgin olive oil and fresh handmade pasta made daily.

The menu includes a selection of dishes ranging from antipasti, soups and pasta with a variety of meats and seafood. The pizzas are made with carefully selected ingredients including Caputo flour from Naples, Italy, extra virgin olive oil unfiltered and fresh mozzarella.

"La Nonna” was the precursor of this Italian cuisine where they used the best ingredients while preparing everything from scratch. It is a throwback to the traditional and rustic cuisine. We try to respect these methods and recipes from the past while integrating cutting-edge techniques.

    Delicious dinner marred, somewhat, by very small selection of starters and entrees (several items, including wines, were unavailable).

    I’m addicted to this place and their goat cheese ravioli. I eat here once a month and I am never disappointed. Give this place a try.

    We had another lovely dinner at Nonna’s! The fish of the day was spectacular as was the duck ravioli. The staff was attentive. We will be back!

    El servicio no fue bueno. Los meseros atienden mejor a los turistas que a los locales. Mi comida llegó fría y, además, se tardaron mucho tanto en traerla como en atenderme al llegar. La mesera fue bastante seca y no mostró mucho interés. La comida, aunque aceptable, no fue nada especial; he probado mejores lugares de pasta. Quizás fue el día que fuimos, pero la experiencia no fue buena. Le recomiendo a los turistas que busquen lugares más puertorriqueños y locales.
