The quaint…read moreatmosphere, dark lighting, clean atheistic and unwillingness to be chain-like all while still delivering quick and effortlessly delicious pasta is a marvel. They truly have trapped magic in a bottle. The menu isn't large but they do also have a rotating seasonal menu that accompanies it. All the dishes on the main menu are Italian classics done right. Most dishes have pork or beef. The pasta tasted very fresh and the portions were what you would want of a good Italian restaurant, plentiful. My "white" ragú was packed full of flavor and the beef was tender. The pecorino cheese used was perfect. All in all, this is the type of place that is always busy and with good reason. Since they don't take reservations lines do form at the front of both sister locations on the same block. Make the line, it moves fairly quickly. And if it doesn't it is still well worth it.

NONA PIZZA FLAGEY AVENUE GÉNÉRALE DE GAULLE/GENERAAL DE GAULELAAN 3, 1050 IXELLES, BRUSSELS We had the pizza with spicy pork and it was excellent. As good as Little Italy in the USA. The real deal. One of the best meals we had on vacation in Brussels. Staff was nice and everyone around us was enjoying their food too. Cute little lake out front with a dirt trail around it to walk on after you eat. Will return for more pizza!

The place is a family run restaurant, and we had amazing service and food. The pasta was fresh and the variety a plus - but the best pasta on the menu by far is the truffle mushroom pasta.

When we got to the restaurant, we were seated outside promptly. Our waiter was really nice and explained the menu to us. I don't usually like salads, but I felt like I needed some greens after eating heavy Belgian food. We decided to go with the mixed salad with ham, and I'm so glad we did! This salad deserves 5 stars honestly. The dressing was amazing, and the ham added a nice salty touch. For pastas, we got the spaghetti with spicy Calabrian sausage and burrata and the ravioli with osso buco. The pastas were definitely cooked al dente - I preferred the spaghetti. The ravioli had good flavor, but it was sitting in so much oil that I couldn't eat too many. It was a solid meal overall, but I didn't think the pastas were anything life-changing. Great place if you're craving some Italian food though!

My wife settled on the beef stew with stoemp, I had the confit of beef chuck with a side of fries. They were both very tasty, the servings were perfect for normal appetites and the meal came with bread, and salad as well. We really enjoyed it, in retrospect I wish we had ordered a beef dish and something else, both dishes we had were excellent (the confit of beef practically fell apart with my fork) but the tastes were similar. Oh well, maybe next time. Highly recommended.

Anyways, I sat down and ordered their bucket of mussels with cream and paella with seafood and chicken. The food arrived within 10 minutes or so. My first impression of the bucket of mussels was just wow. There is a lot. I tried one and these are by far the best mussels I've ever had in my life. They were fresh and smooth, along with a amazing mussel taste. Texture and quality were on another level compared to ones I had near newport beach in California. I lost count of how many mussels I had after 40. It came with a side of fries as well. For its price this was an absolute steal. The paella was also my first time trying one. I ordered it based on the picture I saw on their front door and it was also delicious. The chicken was juicy, the mussels were just as fresh as the ones in the bucket. The addition of lemon juice to the rice gave it a nice tingy taste. The squid and shrimp were tiny compared to the picture but still delicious. Overall, I had underestimated this place. My bill also only added up to 33 euros too, which for its price was way better than anything else I've had in Europe. If I am ever back in this city, I will be coming back to this place for some more.

The restaurant is right on a busy corner so there were a lot of people watching available. I was greeted quicker than I had anticipated, I had requested a soda. I had a hard time deciding what to order since the restaurant offers a large selection of Italian food. I finally decided on the Spaghetti Carbonara. I will say, the pizza did look amazing (took a peek from a nearby table). It was great relaxing at the table watching the world go by. When the meal was delivered, I was not disappointed. The dish was well seasoned, the pasta was fresh, just a great meal. I would highly recommend this restaurant for the great service, meal and the view. Enjoy
