Everything here is top notch. It was a late lunch so the restaurant was quiet with only a few other patrons at the other tables. The complimentary tapenade and bread was tasty and different from the oil and balsamic that is usually on the table. Our server Grace (and Brandon) were friendly and pleasant. Hubby had the fungi ravioli and I had ravioli zucca. Both were delicious and we would definitely order them again. For sure we will be back.

Great place for special occasions! 🤗 Every course was divine. I especially loved the table side presentation for my husband’s main course. I will say I like my food hot when I get it and it was warm, but that’s the only reason I couldn’t give five stars in that area.

We tried this place while in town one evening. We were greeted right away and seated. Our server Jesus came by and got our drink orders. Then Jesus got our food order, we tried the Pesto Pizza which was cooked to perfection and the crust was very tasty. The toppings meshed to make a very tasty and delicious pizza. The Expresso Martini was very good and tasted like they used real expresso. We found the restaurant very clean and everyone worked as a team to make sure you had everything you needed. We will be returning again very soon. We tried this place for lunch and ordered the Pork Shank and Branzino both were very delicious.

Wow, what a great place. We did not have a reservation and we were seated right away. The place was cool and had a great atmosphere. The food was fabulous. Our waiter, Brandon, was great as well. He made suggestions for us, helped us with our drinks and our food selections. Ladies had the Martini specials and we had white wine and an old fashion. We ordered the Carbonara, Ravioli Zucca (butternut squash) and the Bolognese with sides of Cavolfiore (fried cauliflower) and Potato Gnocchi. Everything was so delicious. No leftovers for us. Great portions and again, a fantastic place to eat. Go see them.

As a first time visitor I was sorely impressed with Nonna! A beautiful historic building, beautiful restored and updated. Service was polite and efficient throughout the evening. This was evident throught the evening for myself and other customers. Plating and presentation of the dishes matched the quality of their preparation. It was a delicious meal that will bring me back the next time I'm in San Antonio.
