Nonna is one of those places that's consistently good for Italian food. I've been here several times, and the quality of the food and service has always been reliable. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The location in Little Italy is beautiful, with both inviting indoor and outdoor dining.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The only thing I've noticed recently is that the portions seem a bit smaller than they used to be. That said, the food is still delicious, the atmosphere is wonderful, and the service is consistently friendly. It's still a spot I enjoy coming back to whenever I'm craving Italian.
This spot was walking distance from me and my friend's hotel which was super convenient! We also made a reservation. I ordered the Bolognese Nonna (added meatballs) and then also got one of their mini fruit tarts from the bakery as a dessert. I thought the Bolognese Nonna was very good, and the meatballs were juicy. My only critique was that the noodles were heavily sauced, which I wasn't the biggest fan of. I typically like a good ratio of noodle to sauce. For my dessert, I loved all the fresh fruit on the tart and overall, the dessert was very good. My critique would be, it wasn't those tarts you can cut into and eat, as the crust was hard, so you had to bite into it. Overall, the service was good, and food came out in a timely manner. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance was also very homey.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]
Stopped by Nonna in Little Italy while checking out a pop-up matcha spot and ended up having a great light lunch. We ordered the bruschetta and mushroom tortellini--both were delicious. The bruschetta was fresh and flavorful with soft bread, while the tortellini was rich, creamy, and super satisfying. If you like mushrooms, it's a must-try. There was a bit of a wait, but nothing too bad and definitely worth it. They also have a deli-style counter for gelato and quick bites, which is a nice option. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Casual but cozy vibe overall.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I'd come back!
Our group went to Nonna's on a Saturday night, which is always quite busy in Little Italy. Parking was a little bit rough, but we managed to find something a few streets away. We did wait about 15 minutes until a table opened up. If you get hungry, come early! I'd say that it was worth the wait. We got quite a few starters, and I have to say... skip the prosciutto and burrata, the foccia was the true star! It was like if foccia and garlic bread had a baby: fluffy bread full of all that garlicky, cheesy flavor! I also quite liked the bright and fresh flavors of the Rucola salad. It was so delicious! The pizza choices were a little underwhelming, and I thought the Caprese pizza we ordered tasted okay. The pasta, however, was incredible! The tortelloni funghi was the best main dish we had. If you like mushrooms, this is for you. It was rich and decadent and full of mushroom flavor. While there was a small issue with the short rib pappardelle, the restaurant helped us fix it right away. It turned out quite delicious. It was meaty and hearty. They also have a nice wine and dessert selection. We shared a bottle of Lambrusco that was quite good and finished the night off with a selection of sweets including cannoli's, a lemon tart, and their tiramisu. You can't go wrong with their sweets. All were fabulous!
While walking around Little Italy, we decided to try out Nonna. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is cozy and inviting.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have dining inside, outside on the sidewalk, and back patio.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They also have a U shaped bar right when you walk in, and a dessert case on the side. We had their calamari as an appetizer, which was a good portion 7/10. For our entrees, we had their salsiccia pizza (7/10) and gnocchi al pesto 8/10. [[HIGHLIGHT]]A great little date night no-frills spot.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]
We came here recently on a Sunday night after we decided on a last minute trip to San Diego for Sea World. On our only night here we stayed just outside Little Italy and within walking distance from our hotel was Nonna. We were in the mood for some Italian food and I think we made a great choice with Nonna. We waited about 10 mins which wasn't too bad. When you come in here, you feel like you're in a comfort place because of the ambiance here with pictures of Nonnas around the restaurant. Especially after having watched Nonnas on Netflix, it definitely had that feel being inside here. From the front host to our table, the service was great. We ordered their Bruschetta as a starter with nicely made baguettes filled with tomatoes and the fix. We also ordered their Busalachhi Caesar salad, Lasagna and Carbona pasta. All were very flavorful. The lasagna I wanted more while the pasta the kids ordered but after a few taste, we wanted more also. We don't usually order dessert but glad we did here. Their tiramisu wasn't very sweet which is good. The cannoli on the other hand was a bit sweet but not complaining since it was pretty good. So many options here to try meaning I will definitely have to to come back when I'm in town.
[[HIGHLIGHT]]Cute little Italian restaurant in Little Italy.. I've passed this place many times but finally stopped in while walking around on a Sunday spending time with my BFF.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Smaller restaurant, but plenty of outside seating too.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a bit dark inside, but was still a good ambiance.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Decor was simple and very inviting.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We ordered the bruschetta and the bread was very good... light, but crispy and had the perfect amount of garlic (which was a lot.. exactly how I like it) and olive oil. We both love mushrooms so we ordered the tortellini fungi and it was delicious. If you love mushrooms, this is a definite must try! Very good size portion, we shared and barely finished it. The sauce was flavorful and creamy. We didn't get to try the focaccia, but it looked like a lot of others people ordered it and it looked really good. Our waitress was friendly and so were the other servers walking by. Will definitely be back to try other items on the menu. If you are ever in Little Italy, stop by and give it a try.
Got a place right on the sidewalk. Host was kind enough to put a heater near our table. It really wasn't that bad as there was enough room for people to walk by and great people watching. Our waiter was extremely nice and helpful with recommendations. We had to have of course pasta, bread and parmigiana. All extremely DELICIOUS. Lot of choices needless to say in Little Italy but this should be at or near the top of your list!
We went on a food tour of little Italy, and a local Italian recommended Nonna's! We had already eaten, so we came in for gelato, (they have sorbet too). We noticed 2 huge display cases of freshly made pastries, which beckoned The next day we came back and had dessert for lunch, we cannolis, chocolate mousse, tiramisu, and cookies They also have a fully stocked bar, so we drank our cares away!!
We wanted try a new Italian place while in the San Diego area and chose Nonna's. This place is located right at the Little Italy sign. The waiter was fantastic, and I'm sad I didn't remember his name. But he's a new dad and we talked about his baby, he offered recommendations and knows his food. He was funny and kind. He helped us learn how to properly pronounce some words too. We ate arancini, lasagne and carbonara, a nice Chianti and then an Iris Forno from the bakery case. They have so many fresh baked desserts including cannoli and gelato. The pastas and pizzas looked great, carbonara was ordered at 3 tables all around us. We love the sauces and fresh pasta and ate far too much. They had seafood pasta specials and halibut as well as Oso Boco. I'd recommend this authentic restaurant right in little Italy , you are in for a great Italian experience.
I don't really go to many Italian places but my family was visiting and we were at the Farmer's Market and made reservations for Nonna since it was nearby. We had a later reservation but they were able to seat us with very little wait time when got there earlier! It was definitely a plus. The food was surprisingly good! They had a fun appetizer, fried gnocchi...but that dipping sauce was to die for!!! Their cannoli was ok and the rest of the food wasn't too bad. But it was fairly priced for an Italian place in Little Italy! I was quite surprised about that. They had lots of seating and back patio with lots of heaters and cute decorations. I wouldn't mind coming back! We had a pleasant experience and the food was decent enough.

[[HIGHLIGHT]]This place is a vibe. It's moody but the indoor/outdoor patio makes you feel like you're in a cute little Italian courtyard but in San Diego's Little Italy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service was prompt, friendly, and very knowledgeable about gluten. Which is a great segue into... this is one of the most phenomenal gluten free pizzas that I've ever had. I'm not typically an olive oil sauce enthusiast but this absolutely changed my mind. Doughy, chewy, fluffy, and gluten free?! Ordered with a glass of Unshackled Cabernet. Perfection. Finished the night with three scoops of gelato. Heaven. Can't wait to go back! read more

Everything about Nonna is simply wonderful. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is low-key, very relaxing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice bar and the outdoor space is terrific.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food is delicious. Seriously, everything on the menu is fabulous. Great appetizers and the pasta dishes are soooo good, notably their spaghetti and meatballs which is very traditional, and very, very good. Reasonably priced compared to other Little Italy restaurants. Best Pappardelle I have ever had IN MY LIFE. Try the carrot cake (you'll get a very generous sized piece). THE SERVICE IS SUPERB. Lucky for me, I live a block away so it's easy to just drop in and have a big meal, a smaller, lighter meal, or just go for happy hour and appetizers. The menu has something for everyone, including kids. read more

I really wanted to love this place, but honestly, I left disappointed. We started with the calamari, and it did not taste fresh at all. It felt like it had been reheated and it was pretty bland overall. The biggest letdown was the chicken piccata. The chicken had a strange texture, almost like it had been boiled or steamed, and it was very rubbery. I've never had piccata served like that before. The vegetables were undercooked, tasting raw and hard to cut, and the whole plate wasn't even hot. The mashed potatoes were cool, like the dish had been sitting out before it got to us. That dish was a 1/5 for me. The pizza was definitely the highlight- hot, fresh, and flavorful. I'd give that a solid 4/5. We also tried the coconut and mango gelato, which was really good and a nice way to end the meal. As for the ambiance... just okay. It was very crowded, and even as a party of two, we were seated extremely close to other tables, basically shoulder-to-shoulder, hearing each other's conversations. The sidewalk seating also looked a bit awkward, so I'm glad we weren't placed there. I'm glad we tried it since we've heard so much about it, but unfortunately, I wouldn't return or recommend it. There are definitely better spots in Little Italy. read more

It was my mother and I birthday (2.28) we were in San Diego for a few days. Decided to try Nonna and was soo glad we did. Our waiter Miguel was easy on the eyes, charming and very helpful. The food... 10/10 on everything and the portions were so large no one finished their meal. My short rib was so tender and full of flavor! Also it was so thoughtful of Miguel to present us with dessert and a candle to celebrate that truly made our visit so memorable. The next time we come to San Diego we are certainly making Nonna our first stop! read more
It was a pleasant dining experience at Nonnas. Didn't have to make a reservation ahead of time but luckily we were able to be seated immediately on a busy Friday night. Our waiter wasn't pushy at all to have us choose what we wanted which I appreciate. The vibe overall was very laxxed. We ordered the Caprese, Crispy Calamari, Bruschetta for our appetizers and Pollo Piccata, Tortelloni Funghi, and Gamberi Fra Diavolo. All these dishes were loaded with so much flavor, each bite felt like the first one, absolutely delicious. If you enjoy a good italian food, take a trip to Nonna's! read more

Another favorite for the books! Nonna has become one of our go to restaurants for comfort Italian food! Located in Little Italy, Nonna is always busy and packed. The last time we visited was a Tuesday afternoon and it was not crazy and I was able to snap a pic with hardly anyone there! These are the items we have tried: - Bolognese Nonna: Classic spaghetti with 2 meatballs and tons of delicious bolognese sauce. My favorite dish. - Gamberi fra diavolo: linguine pasta with a light slightly spicy tomato sauce with prawns. The last time we visited, the prawns were the most well cooked best tasting prawn I've had in a very long time! It's was so flavorful, juicy and thick! And we ate it at home! - Bruschetta: classic, very thick sliced baguettes loaded with a tasty tomato mixture. - Gnocchi fitto: I loved these more than I thought I would! Fried and filled with cheese, these were tiny bites of gooey deliciousness! - Tiramisù: My all time favorite dessert. Nonnas is one of the best I've ever had! Light, fluffy, flavored perfectly. - Gelato: they have limited flavors - last visit we tried coffee and Stracciatella (vanilla chocolate chip) - my absolute favorite flavors. So well made! We've only ordered food Togo here. We keep saying we need to dine in one day, but you can't beat delicious food and eating in the comfort of your own home. Also, parking in Little Italy can be such a pain all the time. We usually grab the food and go. Staff is always friendly. Little note, Nonna and Barbusa have the same owner, so if you love Barbusa, you'll love Nonna! (Just a little bit less hectic and tons quieter!) Nonna will definitely be a continued favorite of ours! Simply the best! Series: 8 2025: 66 read more
This place was so close to my hotel, we had reservations and got sat immediately. We started off with the focaccia bread which was so good. I got myself an espresso martini also amazing. For our entrees we had mushroom tortellini and a pepperoni pizza. Our server was kind and everything so quick, we were able to and enjoy everything in about 30 mins. I even got dessert, I got a couple macaroons and a couple cannoli's. I highly recommend this place. read more

Oh my Nonna!! We were staying in San Diego for the weekend and had a craving for pasta/Italian food. Found that the restaurant was walking distance from where we were staying, looked over the menu & called in an order for take out. We got bruschetta, margarita pizza & a pasta dish (forgive me, I forget what my husband ordered). Best bruschetta I've had in a while! Bread was soft, yet slightly toasted, fresh tomato, basil & hello garlic! (Which we love!) If we lived locally, I'd go back just for that! Pizza was flavorful, delicious chew to the dough & overall delicious. Considering the container of pasta was scrapped clean, the pasta was just as delicious. Staff was friendly, attentive & welcoming. Will certainly go back when visiting again. read more
Big fan of Nonna. There were so many pasta options I wanted to try, but decided on one of their specials, full of flavor and very filling. I also tried the pesto gnocchi which I enjoyed. We made a reservation for a Saturday night and were seated right away. We sat in the back patio, but there were heat lamps to keep us warm. There's also many Italian desert options that are a must try! read more
Nice Italian spot in little italy. Ordered the focaccia and it was massive. Weren't even hungry for our pasta afterwards! Large portions. Sat outside and could people watch! They also have a nice pastry bar inside. Sadly, too full. read more

Fantastic! All of it but especially the food. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great service and a great atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Thanks Nonna! read more
Service 10/10. Food 7/10. Valet 1000/10. Do yourself a favor and just utilize the valet they have running in the front or you'll spend forever trying to find parking. It was $15 but it was worth every penny. The service was great and we got sat almost immediately. Our server was very friendly as well. The food was okay though. I wouldn't go out of my way to visit this restaurant again but I wouldn't mind coming back either. read more
Frankly I don't know why people rave about this restaurant. There was no bread service so we ordered focaccia from the menu for nine dollars. It was just ok. My husband's lasagna was good he said but nothing out of the ordinary. My linguine carbonara was just average and there was not enough sauce. Too much pancetta made it extremely salty. There was a pile of it left on my dish. The waiter tried to tell me that carbonara and Alfredo were exactly the same thing. The best part of my meal was the chocolate chip cookies I took home. Like most of the Little Italy restaurants there are tables on the sidewalk but it wasn't any different at the indoor tables. read more

I enjoyed the cheese ravioli with marinara sauce alongside a crisp Caesar salad. Everything was absolutely delicious--rich in flavor yet light enough to leave me feeling satisfied, not overly full. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I visited during lunchtime, and the restaurant had a pleasantly calm, unhurried vibe.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] While the service was average, the overall experience was still very enjoyable. read more

Probably not returning mostly because of customer service. While I don't expect to be treated like royalty, but service was below average for a touristy area. The host was somewhat nice but was not inviting. After we were seated, the server placed the water bottle and glasses right next to us but didn't pour them. I didn't mind if she was super busy and if they were short staffed but some of team were standing around and just talking. The restaurant wasn't packed either: half of the restaurant was empty. The bussers were the only ones who paid attention: they asked us if we wanted to box our leftovers. Our original server returned to check up on us after we were already done and boxed up our meals as she was to offer dessert menu and bring up the tab. We ordered a focaccia bread, clams with linguine, and short rib pappardelle. A different server brought in our dishes after about less than a 10min wait. That's a red flag for me. Food was served in room temp, except for the bread. I didn't really like the clams but my bf didn't mind it. The short rib dish was tasty and seasoned well but not a lot of pasta was plated. Flower petals as a garnish on my pasta were dated and unnecessary. I had to sift through the petals to get to the Parmesan cheese. read more

Do they take walk-ins? Is it easy to get a table for an early dinner, 5ish?
We actually walked in and were seated within 20 minutes..it's a small restaurant, so you may be waiting for a while.
Is there a dress code for the restaurant? On my open table app it mentions the dress code to be business casual
I saw no evidence of a dress code (I was in a hoodie, though ate in the seating area just outside the front doors).
Pricing and parking what's it like?
Pricing I'm not sure bc I came for my cousin's rehearsal dinner. It's not a fancy restaurant but it's nice. You'd be ok wearing shorts or casual wear. Parking is ridiculous. Almost non existent. No valet. The area is super packed bc it's "little…
