Inside it seats around 30 and is decorated in a modern style that still manages to be warm and welcoming. We visited recently for a meal for 4 on a Friday evening. The restaurant was nearly full.

This is not a mega cheap place but it is worth the money charged. We spent around £35 per head with drinks. The staff are extremely friendly and welcoming.

It doesn't look much from the outside but from the moment you go in, you are made to feel at home. A clean modern restaurant. All our food was served promptly, and was devoured just as promptly - all excellent. I have visited many "Italian" Restaurants both in Italy & here in the UK and I have to say this is certainly in my top ten! Good food made from quality ingredients, with excellent service is never cheap (if cheap is what you want, there are many pub restaurants to choose from) La Nonna is reasonably priced for the standard of food & service you receive, you can pay a lot more elsewhere for a lot less! Well worth a visit

Italian food, particularly pasta, is deceptively simple and very easy to do wrong. I tend not to order it when I'm out because it is so often disappointing, with dry pasta or underwhelming flavors, or just ridiculously overpriced. Casa Romana does it perfectly and I've never had a bad meal there. The prices are very reasonable, the portions are good, and the menu is full of traditional dishes like lasagna and spaghetti carbonara plus a few fancier options as well as the daily specials. The atmosphere is friendly and the staff always great. The decor nice but comfortable, this place isn't trying to be trendy but it's nice enough for a date or taking your mother to. As others have mentioned, it's worth making a reservation if you've going in the evening just in case they're full. Also keep in mind there's no sign outside, just look for the cozy place with the distinctively shaped door.

February 15th 2019…read more In Evening, me my mom and my dad had a family dinner together.Everything was going great. We first had to book this Italian restaurant called Rigoletto. After we got there we found a very comfortable seat. Mom and I started to order. My original plan for my third course was to eat a pancake called Crêpes Suzette. The waitress said that I couldn't order that as my third course. It was because there would be alcohol in Crêpes Suzette so he suggested me to try another dessert for my third course so I ordered tiramisu. The rest of our meal was delicious! However, our neighbors ordered Crêpes Suzette and we saw the fire flying up two meters high. It was caused by the alcohol. Because the alcohol was strong enough to make the cooking pan go on fire for two meters high. That was a funny & interesting night. I enjoyed eating in the Rigoletto and if you have time, you can go there for your dinner!!! Fun Fact This was my dolci menu!!!

We came across this online and said 'why not try it' The setting was very Italian and cosy. I like the fire we were sat beside even though it wasn't lit. The table decoration was very Italian and the seats and tables a nice and chunky wooden rustic style. The waitress was in good form and helpful explaining the menu to us. Tapas style Italian dishes. We got bottled water and bread, oils and balsamic while deciding what else to get. The bread and oils are one of my favorite ways to start a meal. They were yum. Really fresh and full of flavor. We got 6 tapas between us. Plenty for 2. I was stuffed by the end. We got stuffed roasted peppers with cheese, Pepperoni pizza, fried potatoes with red pesto dip and aoili, meatballs, Salmon pasta and creamy mushroom bruscetta. All were very tasty with very good portion sizes. Some i'd get again some I'd change. The price was decent ranging between 3.50-5 pounds each. Our bill totalled £32 the water was over £3 of this alone and we both felt 5 dishes would have been enough. Worth a trip. I love tapas, they're a great way to try a little of everything. Will definitely be a local favorite.
