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.

    This little restaurant has quickly become one of our favorite spots. My fiancé and I very much enjoy the goat cheese ravioli; so much so that we’ve been to Nonna’s three times in the last month. Each time we bring a new group of friends so that they can taste what is arguably the best Italian dish ever conceived. The service these past few weeks has been impeccable. The wait staff has been friendly and knowledgeable on wines. I wanted to highlight this because in the past I wrote a review detailing a bad experience. Now I know that it was just a bad day, to which everyone is entitled. Give this place a try! Get the goat cheese ravioli. You will not regret it.

    Wow delicious! Everything from the Arancinj to the Lasagna was perfect. It all tasted cooked with love and homemade. Would recommend this to anyone visiting the island.

    The best Italian meal I’ve had in a while. Every single dish was delicious. We had a long layover and came here for a solid meal, but now we’re planning to come back just for this restaurant.

    Amazing from beginning to end. Our server Jan, was a total sweetheart and made us feel at home. Had the risotto croquette for an appetizer, goat cheese and ricotta ravioli/squid ink linguine for entrees, and the lemon-basil panna cotta for dessert. Downed it all with a nice bottle of Sauvignon. Will be visiting again

    Food was great, loved the recomendarions in f our server. Jose did an awesome job in offering non menu options. Ravioli stuffed with pine nuts and goat cheese with figs in sauce was out the f this world. Risotto on black calamari sauce with sea food was great. Well all our food was ti die for. Recommended…

    The food was excellent. Lasagna of lamb was my choice, and it was delicious. The wine suggested by the waiter was a good selection, and the tiramisu for desert 100 % recommended

    The usual high quality from one of my favorites restaurants in PR..... With very high costs for food products they have reduced the number of menu items and the portions a bit. But it has kept entree prices to reasonable prices....$22 for lamb lasagna....and as it was I still took home half. Six bucks for a vermouth. Nice. And the best homemade pistachio ice cream anywhere. Noise level low. Staff very attentive. Bread could get a taste makeover. They have a peculiar homemade bread. Used to like it.
