A friend and I tried Nonno's for her birthday last night. We had a fantastic evening from start to finish. We were greeted promptly and were quoted about a 20-minute wait time. It took less than 5 minutes to be seated at a lovely booth. Our server came over immediately and got us started with drinks. We ordered waters and a bottle of the Sangue de Giuda wine. We were also brought delicious bread and pesto while we perused the menu.
We started with the calamari, which arrived a little on the chewy side, which we know from reviews is not the norm. The server happily took it back and had it removed from our check, and we promised to try it again on a future visit.
For dinner, we ordered the Tour of Sicily and the carbonara pasta as well as a side of alfredo. We ordered the tiramisu, the cannoli, and the limoncello cake for dessert. We sampled a few bites of everything but ultimately ended up bringing home the majority of the food as servings were very generous.
Everyone we interacted with at the restaurant was fantastic. We can't wait to return on a future visit. We also bought three 8 oz containers of their pesto as it was the best we've ever had. Highly recommend both this restaurant, and especially their pesto.

As always, the food was AMAZING! It was packed. I was alone and had to wait about 20 minutes. The only thing I didn’t like was that because I was alone, they made me sit at the bar instead of using a table. I don’t like sitting at bars or in high top chairs, but I survived. The owner, Stefano, was there and came to check on me several times at the bar. He also talked a lot to the first time customers who sat down next to me. He is super friendly!

If you are looking for a great Italian restaurant in Central Florida, I recommend Nonno's. We went there to attend our friends' celebration and were very impressed. It's a picturesque restaurant that serves big portions of delicious food. The service was great also. The owner came out to speak with us and told us he believed food should be cooked from the heart, not a recipe. I loved that! 😊 Thank you Nonno's for your great service, food, and atmosphere. We will be back!

I can't believe I've been residing in this neighborhood for such a long time and yet I never stumbled upon this enchanting treasure. The personnel here are incredibly amiable and attentive. The cuisine is truly exceptional, bursting with delightful flavors. Oh, and let's not forget about the extraordinary bread—it's simply marvelous. Without a doubt, we enthusiastically urge you to pay a visit.
