WE AIN'T NONNA'S! It's a simple as that. We love and appreciate all the Nonna's out there and the beautiful food they create. We don't want to compete with your Nonna's cooking, so we won't.

This is our take on home style Italian cooking.

    Everything was amazing the food and service was great, the setting was great the only thing that I was a little disappointed with was the selection on the feed me section. My partner and I got the feed me selection thinking we could choose between at least 2 option but as that isn't the case you just have to have whatever is on. All of the food was great I just didn't like the dessert so it would of been nice to at least have a different option,

    Always a great time with delicious food at Ain’t Nonnas. Lovely staff provide great service. Will continue to return here again and again. The bread (generous serving) with nduja butter, delicious. The vodka rigatoni, YUM.

    What’s not to love about a friendly local that makes their own pasta & pairs it with beautiful sauces (not the usual standards you see) - in fact makes their own everything. Non intrusive yet atmospheric beats in the background and staff who know what they’re doing & care too. Cocktails & wine list short and sweet but not lacking and not too hiked up price wise. In the mornings there’s some of Wollongong’s best coffee, pastries and cakes you won’t see elsewhere.
