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.

    Our visit to Nona’s exceeded our expectations! The staff was great and the food excellent. You must try the scallops and risotto, also the pasta al limone with shrimp.

    Perfect for a date night. Service was absolutely fantastic and super friendly. Both the garlic knots and the homemade meatball were some of the best we have ever had.

    When we made reservations, there was no offer of seating behind the wall. As a result we could hardly carry on a conversation (there were only the two of us) because of the trio that was live jazz music. The table we were seated at was big enough for one not two people.

    We had an incredible experience at Nonna's. We were meeting up to commiserate a recent friend's passing, and the staff was incredibly respectful and considerate. Mandi, the server, was so kind, she made us cry. Thank you for a such a positive experience during a difficult time. And the food was delicious.
