Nonno's was definitely a "no no" for me. The experience started off rough because we waited over 20 minutes before anyone even came to our table. I ordered the mozzarella sticks with ranch, but the ranch never came out. The portion was also pretty small for the price. The service overall was very slow, and while the interior ambiance looked nice, it was so loud inside that it was hard to even have a conversation. I ordered the pepperoni pizza and it took over 30 minutes to come out, and honestly the quality was pretty mediocre compared to other pizza spots I've had. Parking is also difficult since it's very crowded and finding a spot can be a challenge.

Delicious pizza! We came as a huge group quite late at night with no reservations, so it was so kind of the restaurant to accommodate us. All the pizzas hit! So tasty, perfect for our quick Houston visit

My love for Nonno's has no words, but here goes. Just know that I love tavern style, cracker thin crust. If I had a date night here, I'd make sure to lady and the tramp the mozzarella sticks every single time. It's just that fucking good. Add a little drizzle of ranch for that oomph or a dibble dabble of marinara and have a dance. Get it every time. The fungus among us has flavors that marry so well, that it's orgasmic. Definitely not for the weak. You'd need a palate cleanser after each slice. But it's just that good. Trust. Easily the top flavor that I've ever had in my life. Not into the fungus among us, no worries. You can't go wrong with the meat head or the wise guy. mwuah good ole crispy edges, perfectly portioned greasy pepperoni cup, on a cracker thin crust. The seasonal cheesecake is so good, that I think about it all the fucking time. All. The. Time. The vibes of Nonno's brings you back to the 90s of the Pizza Hut commercials of seated family dinners at the restaurant, but with breadsticks and pizza. Oh, and there's no phone. BUT, you can order online. It's kid friendly, so you gotta tolerate it, or you won't be able to understand the love for Nonno's. They have 4 old school games. pinball, Pac-Man, and a couple I can't think of the top of my head. But you get the gist. The lighting is so nostalgic, that it just hits right. I'd be devastated if Nonno's ever close. I'd lose my fuckin' mind.

So we visited this place, Nonna's because my husband wanted some pizza. And he loves thin crust pizza. You cannot get any thinner than their pizza. And it is delicious. But the first time we went in looking for pizza and we saw the menu we had to order the Osso Buco. You just hit it with a fork and it falls apart. It was so tasty and so tender. They had it sitting on polenta it was incredible. I got the mushroom risotto. That was really good. I love risotto and it had such good flavor and texture. Our little waitress Andrea, was so sweet. If you come in, ask for her, she was so accommodating and so helpful. And we went back a second time and we got the pizza. We got to do it half-and-half and it fed four of us. We also got the Badda Bing Wings. They were so good. Very crispy. We got the garlic and vinaigrette dip with the bread. That was really good, but it had big chunks of garlic in it. I loved the mozzarella sticks. They were huge and you get five of them. My picture only shows three because they couldn't wait for me to get a picture of it. They had to take them. And let me tell you that cheese was so light. Usually when I get mozzarella sticks it's thick and it's gummy and no these were delicious and big. For dessert the first time I tried the orange dream cheesecake. Which was like an orange dream sickle with a sugared orange peel on top. Yum. My husband got the big old brick of chocolate cake. It took him two days to eat it it was so good. Then on the second day, we got the potato chip chocolate chip cookie. You talk about sweet and salty and savory. And it was loaded with chocolate chips. So good. The parking is a little small, but if you can get in here, you need to go visit them. It's such a cute quirky looking little place. They have good wines and beers on tap. I got the last bottle of a very good Cabernet from Mexico. But definitely definitely worth the trouble to go see this place.

Visited Nonno's Pizzeria while in Houston. The atmosphere was lively but overly loud, making conversation difficult, and the music only added to the noise. The service was inconsistent -- cocktails were slow to arrive, and we were told well after ordering that a Hugo Spritz couldn't be made, which should've been flagged much earlier. We tried a few of their tavern-style pizzas, which were thin and basic, more like a tortilla-style pizza at home and nothing memorable. One pizza with soppressata and mushrooms was especially disappointing, with the soppressata overly oily and a surprise $9 charge for mushrooms that were barely noticeable, bringing a $16 pizza to $29. Overall, a bit overrated and not worth a return visit. Saluti

Came in on a wed night and was seated immediately. Dress code: casual, came in gym attire Food 5/5: Ordered the fungus amoung us pizza, chopped salad, wings and bean dip. Everything tasted great, wings were slightly spicy and very savory, probably my favorite tonight. Service 5/5: very friendly and helpful, super knowledgeable about the menu and very professional. Accommodating when we noticed some condensation dripping at our first seat. Ambiance 4/5: rustic Italian wooden feel, quite liked the overall vibes but docked a point for the condensation that dripped down on us at the table we were first seated at, but were quickly shifted to another table when we pointed it out Value 4/5: very good portion sizes for a good price. Overall 4.5/5: very much enjoyed it the 2 times I've been here. Will be back to try other pizza toppings. Great service and food and pretty good ambiance and value Parking: is a nightmare. Small parking lot that is always full as it is shared by a couple other restaurants that are pretty popular

All I kept thinking was Why are the chicken wings so good here?? I came here for pizza and left in love with the dang CHIMKIN. The white bean dip was good, mild flavor on the boquerones. Even gave extra chippies. Broccoli pizza was unique and we added the pepperoni for some extra saltiness and protein (this was def the move). Next time might just do a build your own pizza to make a pepperoni garlic situation. Overall I love the crisp tavern style is the Za. Wow the Oreo cheesecake. Nice flame toasted strawberry compote on top. But really Wow the chimkinnnnn!!! See y'all Monday for the chicken happy hour party time

Potatoes were awesome!

We were in the area because we had visited the MFAH. I used the good ol' Yelp app and saw this place pop up. I had previously heard of it and knew that I'd eventually have to try it. The decor and atmosphere is awesome. It's very relaxed and has a cool retro feel with the Pizza Hut lamps and the arcade games. The food was so good. I have to come back. I need more of the tavern style pizza. So crispy. So tasty. So perfect. I got the Peter Lambo and it was exactly what I needed. We also got the potatoes appetizer, and we loved it. The garlic sauce was awesome. The bartenders were so awesome and so nice. They know what they're doing with cocktails, because they were really good. I also got to try Malort which everyone said would be really bad, but I'm a rare lover of Malort I guess. Very popular in Chicago. You definitely gotta try it if you come here. All in all, this is awesome. Come here. Now.

Nonno's has been on our long list of pizza places to try in Houston. Nonno's is known for their thin crust pizza and nostalgic and retro interior. Service: service here was great! We came for lunch on a Saturday and the restaurant was not packed. We were seated immediately. Our server was great. They keep a pitcher of water at the table which is nice. Our food came hot and fresh and our waitress was very attentive. Parking: Nonno's has a small parking lot in front of the restaurant. The parking lot looks like it's shared with The Toasted Coconut which is right next door. Ambiance: the restaurant has a retro feel with arcade games and 80/90s looking decor. They have a nice bar area with countertop service. The restaurant is clean and well kept. Food: we ordered the Mozz Sticks as an appetizer and those were amazing. They are a little pricey at 5 mozzarella sticks for $15 but I think they are worth it. You can get a side of regular marinara or spicy marinara with the mozzarella sticks so we got both to try them out. Both sauces were very good! The mozzarella sticks were coated in a panko type crust and you could tell they were fried fresh and had a nice crispy exterior with a cheesy interior. For our mains we ordered the Peter Lambo and the Meat Head pizzas. The Peter Lambo had a white sauce with chicken and a pesto sauce on top. It had good flavor! Would recommend this for those who enjoy white sauce instead of marinara sauce. The meat head pizza had capicola, pepperoni, and sausage and a marinara sauce. This pizza was heavy and a little greasy. If you like meat, this is the pizza for you. This pizza was also very crispy. It got difficult to eat a lot of this pizza because it was crunchy and heavy at the same time. Overall Nonno's has very good pizza. I don't think it's the best pizza in Houston. This is easily the best thin crust pizza in Houston. I wanted to give it 5 stars nit when compared to other pizza in Houston, it's not there for me. Definitely come here if you love thin crust pizza! Also the mozzarella sticks were amazing! The interior is also really nice for those who love throwback decor. There are old Pizza Hut lamps over some of the booths. Nonno's brings the nostalgia and flavor. Come give them a try!

Parking can be frustrating. The mozzarella sticks are a big winner here. I was a bit mixed with the pizza, if the sauces match you can split the pie. I think they mostly have thin cust which is what I like. They have a nice bar, and a good drink menu. Retro interior with a couple of arcade games. It was a interesting place, I would go back.

I really like the atmosphere here. The service was really good. The pizza reminds me of pizza that I had in high school with the crispy crust. The dipping sauces were good. I'd go back just for the video games and retro feel. Definitely would ask for roasted garlic and a bit more sauce on my pizza. I feel like it would have been perfect if that was added. Really liked the atmosphere here--super chill with a fun, retro vibe. Service was great too. The pizza brought back high school memories with that crispy crust. The dipping sauces were a nice touch. I'd definitely come back just for the video games and the whole throwback feel. Only thing I'd change: I wish the pizza had a bit more sauce and some roasted garlic. That would've made it perfect. Definitely will add that to it when I go back. I didn't realize I could do so. Making a note here for myself also to do it.

Came with 2 Yelpers. This place was on there list, and I too was curious so we decided on this. Parking- they have a some spots out front, it shares a lot with other business. But this was full. I followed my friend across the street and found the toasted coconut sign and you can park there. Service - was really the best. Our server Frank was fantastic, easy breezy, conversational, happy to help, and gave us a little taste of one of the cocktails, which was soo kind. Food- the 3 of us decided to split a pizza and it was the right move, as it was enough for us. If you do come solo, be prepared to bring home takeaway. Cutesy vibe with the throwback games and Pizza Hut Chandliers, and old timey wooden framing decor, and cool record player. Would I return? Most def.

Mozz Sticks
Amanda O.

Let me start by saying this restaurant vibe is so inviting and reminds me of my younger college days! It has a very nostalgic look but with a modern twist! The staff was great and super friendly. They provided superb service without all the extra fluff of big box pizza places. The menu is clear and prices are reasonable. I had the Mozz Sticks are great hefty size full of cheeese! The marinara sauce was on point! I had the spicy one and regular were super delish! Now, for main dish! I had the Pepperoni was soo good and like no other pizza I had. It was crispy and cheesy without the cheese falling off the pizza. It was flavorful and perfect for an earlier dinner without too much bread. I would definitely recommend to all my pizza lovers! This is hands down such a good spot that hits the SPOT! I will be back to try the pasta and drinks!

So worth it! I've been obsessed with pizza lately and started trying different spots so I finally…read morestopped in for a pick up on a weekday. I got the Rita with the smoked chicken. My pizza was ready on time and the service was great although our interaction was brief. It's a thin crust pizza and the edges were just perfect out of the oven. The chimichurri worked perfectly with the smokiness of the chicken. The cheese was so fresh and the sauce flavorful. Next time I'll order it well done because the toppings made it a bit soggy in the middle the next day. I can't wait to try more on the menu! The space is small and has patio seating. I would consider it more for takeout or a quick lunch.

Heard really good reviews from social media so decided to give them a try. Starting off parking is…read morea little tricky as the area is small along with the building. Walking in there a couple seats to the right, menu is on the wall to the left, and order & pickup counter in the center. I ordered the Coffee Cowboy pizza and a full order of Dad's Bruschetta (Dad OG's). It took quite a while for the food to be ready, as it was a Friday, and was just blowing up on social media. So I recommend ordering online beforehand, I also noticed while waiting for my food to be ready, that the staff taking orders were bias towards certain customers but that could just be me. There are more tables and seating outside in front with napkins rolls available which I sat at when the food ready. The Coffee Cowboy pizza had coffee-crusted hereford flank steak, smoked onion bianco sauce, mozz, white cheddar, caramelized onion, smoked salt, and truffled arugula. But sadly wasn't to my liking along with the Dad's Bruschetta. Overall, food wasn't really to my liking, and recommend ordering ahead of time.
