Excellent, food was fabulous. Mushroom Ravioli and lasagna bolognese. Service was spot on. Be sure to order lemon with the water or request it later. Cheesecake did indeed taste like crème brûlée. read more

Service was good. As far as the food. Good salad and bread. Olive oil on table but no balsamic. Entries were the eggplant and veal tortellini. Taste was so-so. Very good deserts. Conclusion was another restaurant selection next time read more

If you're ever in the area where a Nonna's is, GO. A Springfield classic at its finest. With two locations, we chose the downtown location. An old shop on the corner, this place is adorable. The walls are lined with old Italian pictures, the floor is a nice old oak and the upstairs over looks the kitchen, it gives it a nice Italian feeling. We started out the evening with a nice glass of house wine, sweet as it can be, and a classic Manhattan. Both excellent choices. Then we ordered the cheese fried ravioli and fried calamari. Although I am a fan of the meet ravioli not cheese, the ravioli was fantastic. I had been craving fried ravioli and this hit the spot perfectly. The calamari was delightful as well. For the entree we had the fried lasagna and added sausage. AMAZING. we had the clam linguine (it's not on the menu but if you ask they make it) it's literally the best I've ever had. We also had the classic shrimp linguine with huge shrimps! And last but not least, the seafood lasagna with clams, shrimp, and fresh mussels. I can't say it enough, Nonna's is fantastic. read more

Pretty mediocre food. Bread was really good though! Staff was a little slow, overall wouldn't go back.

1. Great Food 2. Server's beer belly was hanging out his shirt which was grossing me out plus pretty sure he had been drinking. 3. Nice Italian atmosphere read more

Bad service and got food poisoning from the deep fried lasagna which the inside of it was like a cold blended paste which was horrid, the plate was the only warm thing about the meal, the rest came cold read more

Beautiful, yummy food!!! Lovin the vibe here. The live music in the background really sets the tone. Just delicious.

The tiramisu, cheesecake and cannolis were all delicious, and the portions were generous. One son had the tomato basil soup and loved it, and the other says his fettuccine Alfredo was fine. My Greek pasta was more salt than anything else, especially the chicken. I had to throw most of it away, it literally hurt to eat. My husband's spicy chicken Caesar salad was unusual, but some might like that. The staff was friendly and the prices were fine. read more

Food was AMAZING! Service was great! Atmosphere (with live guitar music) was inviting and warm on a cold night! I'm a second generation Italian visiting from NY and wasn't sure what to expect from an Italian restaurant in Springfield Mo. HIGHLY recommend it!!! read more

We had date night at Nonna's, and it did not disappoint. We started with the balsamic vinegar, oil, grated Parmesan, Minced garlic and bread. It was scrumptious! We followed with toasted ravioli, which was fantastic, as well as the marinara dipping sauce. We continued on with our entree which was the best yet! We split one order of Lasagna Arrabiata. The taste of the sauce transported us to Italy, and danced across our tongues! The atmosphere was cozy and romantic. If you get a chance, try it, it won't disappoint. read more

This is an awesome spot. We were looking for a place as we traveled through Springfield. What a neat spot very cozy and welcome home feel. Excellent serve and food. We will be back! read more

Just a quick lunch delivery from a great Italian restaurant. The food at the restaurant is excellent classic Italian. But I ordered delivery today. It was delivered promptly. The ratatouille risotto was fresh and served warm. It was excellent. The vegetables were freshly prepared and the rice was cooked to perfection. GrubHub delivery was prompt, courteous. Well packaged. Always good. read more

My boyfriend and I ate here last Friday. It was packed and I was very glad I made a reservation. Dinner started out with a bread basket with parmesan cheese and a parmesan cheese and garlic spread. And as an appetizer we got the humus which was served with carrots, celery and fresh peta bread to dip with. I ordered the fried lasagna which was cheesy and delicious. The sauce was amazing as well! I had gone to Nonna's other location but this location's food was 100x better. My boyfriend ordered the sausage and polenta. The sausages were so flavorful and the polenta melted in your mouth. To finish off we got the red velvet cheese cake! Our server was equally excited for us to try it. It was drizzled with dark chocolate sauce and a side of rich icing. The red velvet cheese cake was airy and rich. And the oreo crust was just as satisfying! If I could give a restaurant more stars it would be Nonna's. With good service, atmosphere and delicious food you cannot go wrong! read more

The food was terrible amd the server was extremely slow and seemed clueless. It took 10 minutes to get two drinks. We were served cold bread. I asked for the bread to be heated in the oven, she microwaved it, gross! We ordered pasta fagioli soup and caeser salad, we were served beef stew? And a dry salad with caeser dressing on the side. We ordered pasta pesto with chicken amd Alfredo pasta with shrimp. The pesto pasta was served cold amd the Alfredo barely warm with the chicken amd shrimp placed on top like an after thought. Complete waste of money:-( read more

If you crave excellent Italian dishes, in Springfield, hurry to Nona's. Not a huge menu to wade through but, each item is wonderfully Italian. The service is great and pricing very reasonable. read more

My husband and I went went here specifically because of their inclusion in 417 Magazine's Best Of list. We made a quick overnight trip for my birthday last weekend, and couldn't wait for some authentic, delicious Italian food. Welllllll ... It wasn't the worst I've ever had. But it certainly wasn't the best. The highlights were a very robust and flavorful bruschetta and a to-die-for decadent tiramisu. Both of these items were spot-on fantastic. The bruschetta tasted very fresh and the tiramisu was one of the best I've ever eaten. It was hard to pick our entrees. There were several that sounded amazing. I debated going classic Italian or maybe something a little bit more elaborate like the gnocchi or a risotto. Finally settled on the spanakopita, which is classic Greek instead. I did like the flavor of this, although the feta inside wasn't balanced properly. You'd get a really nice bite with even flavors, then your next bite would be HELLO, CHEEEESE but not in a good way. So the even bites were delicious, and the extra cheesy bites I could have done without. This was served with a cold orzo salad side which was nice and delicate. My husband went with the cioppino. He tries almost every restaurant's version. I was scared for him because he's rarely had one to rave about. And while I'm not sure if he's raving over Nonna's version, he did definitely like it. The broth was savory and the fish was plentiful - good qualities in a cioppino because he's had some doozies! The service, however, was another thing altogether. Our server was nice, but she kept us waiting for long periods. And she was zipping past us like she had a fire in her pants. Like, slow down woman - you're stressing me out! It wasn't much longer when we realized there were only 2 people on the floor - our server and another - who were doing everything: filling water glasses, taking orders, bussing tables and bartending. I'm thinking perhaps they must've been short staffed or something. Nevertheless, our girl was quite distracting as she raced past us repeatedly for the next hour. All in all, an okay experience. If we were locals, we would probably be like, okay CHECK. And then move on with our life. It might be interesting, however, to try out the other Nonna's location to see if it fares better. read more

Situated in a beautiful older building in downtown Springfield this restaurant was recommended by the folks at our hotel. It has a quaint and eclectic style that nicely ties in the history of the restaurant and the building as well as showcases paintings from local artists. The waited even pointed out an old black and white picture of the space from many years ago. The food was delicious! We started with the toasted raviolis which were perfectly done, oozed melted cheese and came with a sweet and chunky tomato sauce. I had the portobello mushroom ravioli for dinner. It came in a creamy garlic sauce that was rich but not too thick. My colleagues both enjoyed their choices as well - the grilled chicken with polenta and the penne bolognese. During dinner I also had a cup of tea. It was refreshing and a nice touch that they bring you loose leaf tea to steep as long as you'd like with some honey and lemon. Service was awesome, our waiter was efficient without us feeling rushed. If you're looking for an intimate experience and a comforting Italian meal this is the place to go! read more

Ate there with a business associate. Masking was mandatory and they were seating at 50% occupancy, so I didn't feel exposed. Wait staff all were conscious of the issues and remained masked the whole time. Food is great. They had a quick, limited happy hour - but enjoyed what we had. Wine prices were reasonable and varied - not extensive, but good. Entrees were good - good selection, served quickly and hot, and the service was excellent. Waiter checked a few times to be sure we were doing ok. After 3 glasses of wine, we were fine. A filling meal, excellent food. I'm going back as often as I can. read more

So, the food is pretty top notch, I tried 2 dishes. Chicken Marsala, and Deep Fried lasagna. Both were pretty amazing in both texture and flavor variety. They definitely have Italian done right! read more

So happy to have found this spot while passing through. After having had terrible road food during our 3 day trip back from Arizona, it was so refreshing to eat deliciously prepared, fresh cuisine. My family and I enjoyed the chicken Parmesan, hummus appetizer, toasted ravioli, burrata with crostini and spinach salad. Everything was delivered to perfection. Thank you read more

My husband and I came here for a relaxing dinner Friday night. They had live music (a gentlemen playing a guitar and he was really good) that made the atmosphere perfect. I had the fried lasagna with meatballs and he had the Greek. I can confidently tell you my meal was one of the best meals I've ever ate. The best meatballs I've ever had by far. They fell apart under my fork they were so tender. The sauce was sweet and the ricotta mixture in the lasagna was spot on. They had a large menu to try from too. I know we will definitely be back to try some more options! I will always be getting those meatballs as an appetizer tho! read more

Only one word for this Restuarant. AMAZING! GO THERE! It is great location. My personal fav is the fettuccine Alfredo!

Ate here on New Years Day for the first time. Don't waste your time. Hit the Olive Garden you will have the same if not better quality and more selection. The soup was cold, they were out of the sauce I ordered so the waiter recommended something else. Not sure what it was called but it should have been called the Devil's Spaghetti. It was one of the spiciest things I have ever eaten. At least it was hot as everything else was cold. I am not one to eat at chains but this local is not worth the time. read more

I generally prefer to send "constructive" reviews directly to businesses rather than to public sites, but Nonna's doesn't provide email contact info on its web site so . . . Ate at Nonna's for the first yesterday evening. The service was fine but the food,wasn't flavorful or interesting. Bread was doughy and closer to chilled than to warm. My Fettucine Alfredo with chicken was disappointing. Sauce was thin and missing the divine eggy, garlicky, creamy flavor and texture of a true Alfredo. We were seated at a mezzanine table with a clear view of the kitchen below. As far as I could tell the chicken breast was cooked in the flattop with no seasoning. Everything would have benefited from cracked pepper at least. What was available on the table was tasteless ground pepper in a grimy shaker. And speaking of grimy, even the most modest restaurant kitchens should be flawlessly clean from top to bottom. From my vantage point I could see the ceiling as well as the kitchen's work area. All the crud that collects around vents, etc was right there. And what was that shop vacuum doing on the kitchen floor during serving hours. All of these things are correctable. Taking care of them would take Nonna's a long way from where it is right now. read more

Down town Springfield's best little Italian restaurant. We had salmon and the seafood lasagna. The lasagna was full of shrimp mussels and clams. White sauce very favorable. You could taste all the seafood in it. read more

A Springfield only Italian restaurant is in the heart of the happening old central town. We, a group of three, found mixed opinions on the food, but the staff and service were excellent. The lady of the group ordered lasagne, and was asked if she wanted sausage or a meatball with it. The lasagne was ordered with sausage. However the lasagne was made with shredded beef, very different than expected. This tasted more like barbeque lasagne and was not enjoyed. Another person ordered a very atypical entre for an Italian restaurant, meatloaf. The terse male comment was: "this is the best meatloaf ever." Fetticine Alfredo with shrimp was our final order. It was quite good, but served slightly under warmed. Nonna's is a good place worth a try. read more

Order the fried lasagna-in-fact order two because you will want another one later. We drove through coming from Kentucky and my kids wanted Italian. Super delicious. French bread melts in your mouth. They delivered to our hotel on time. Kids scarves down their food too. Definitely worth it. read more

Was visiting Springfield and tried Nonna's for some good Italian cooking! It was my first time eating bread dipped in an olive oil/garlic/parmesan cheese mixture and it was so good. For my entree I had the shrimp linguine. A subtle olive oil based sauce but it was delicious and the prawns were juicy and plump. I was disappointed with the appetizer mussels as half of the plate had mussels that were not edible (as the shells were closed up). Tiramisu was soft and sweet and our server was very attentive. read more

Attended with 5 other people and were surprised at how poor the service was. The server took are orders and brought the food and was never back to refill glasses or remove appetizer plates making the table over crowded. In fact we had to go seek the server out to get a check. The other servers said our server spent all his time out of the restaurant in the alley. The was alright but nothing special. Probably will not return. read more

The deep fried lasagna and tricolored tortillini was like an orgasm in my mouth. The seats are 6 ft apart for social distancing and the food was spot on top notch, could not be happier. Gotta love Italian food!! read more

I really wanted to like this place. We ordered (take out) spaghetti bolognese, risotto marsala, and the gnocchi - all tasted like disappointment. Cheesecake had a pudding like consistency. Threw the entire meal away - I would have been better off going to an Olive Garden - at least the bread would have been good. read more
