Nonna’s Italian Bistro serves up home-cooked Italian dishes and local favorites throughout the week. The wine dinner is a popular favorite, but many diners also prefer the standard dinner menu, which offers everything including starters, salads, soups and entrées.

The grilled salmon salad is particularly tasty, as is the pasta fagole and the arrabbiata, which is made with sausage, spinach and peppers. For lunch, enjoy a menu of sandwiches with themes drawn from traditional Italian-Chicago street food. The Italian beef sandwich is always a hit, but you might prefer the Italian combo with beef, sausage and peppers. There is a kids’ menu available, as well as a daily happy hour with discounted wines and snacks.

    Skip the drinks. You will be offered a glass of ice and a SPLASH of scotch. Not worth the bother.

    We were out celebrating our friends birthday. James took care of us. The service was excellent. We ordered the bruschetta and stuffed mushrooms as apps. They were so delicious we ordered 2 sets. The lasagna lived up to the reviews and was spiced well. It tasted like they added fennel which is key for me. The rest of the crew ordered shrimp scampi and Parmesan crusted chicken. We topped it off with cannoli and turtle cheesecake. The prices are reasonable too.

    Apparently the restaurant assigns you a table and they have a 2 hour limit on each table. We arrived 25 minutes early but because “our” table had not been vacated we waited until 6:15 and it was only after we asked did we get seated within a few minutes. The front desk attendants were rude and not helpful. However, when you get back in the restaurant the wait staff is amazing!

    We had a wonderful dinner at Nonna’s. 3 adults and a toddler. James our server was fantastic and we really appreciated the extra attention he paid to our son. We had the calamari, lobster ravioli, filet mignon, and pasta bolognese. All the food was delicious. The live music was also much appreciated. Can’t recommend Nonna’s enough, 10/10, we will be back.
