I'd say everything about this magnificent osteria is *perfetto*! All pizzas, sandwiches, and pastas are absolutely delicious; especially their cappuccini, everything here is made with 100% passion and perfection. This restaurant is absolutely to divine for, if you're looking for an authentic Italian place to eat, drink, and enjoy company!
Our family—though more often than not, just with my father and I—had been coming here since late-last year, whether it was for take-out or dine-in, the staff are very accommodative and friendly, almost family! The staff literally go above and beyond in making sure you have an authentic Italian experience, so please do tip them generously—if you're able—to show them appreciation and gratitude for their hard-earned work, they deserve it!
Our family and friends thank you ever-so much for the hard work you and the staff have put into this grand operation; the food, service, and everything is just awesome. A little piece of Italy in Alaska, is all I'd ever want.
If I could rate even higher, I'd say you all deserve a million stars out of five!!
The list of my favorites are too long to list here, but here are my best suggestions if you ever decide to come dine here at Nonna's!
• The Cure, been my go-to sandwich, very savoury and lots of meats.
• The Calabrian, if you're wanting some kick in the ol' taste buds! Bring on the heat, it's delicious!
• The Puccia, love the meatballs! Super saucy and delicious too!
• The all'Amatriciana, the best pasta dish with a slight kick and savoury taste that is just "awesome-sauce."
• The Zeppoli, super delicious, both the pastry and cream is tasty and sweet!
• The Maritozzi, a baseball-sized pastry full of deliciousness, suggested filling: the whipped cream. 😋
• Cappuccino with two extra shots, for you coffee nerds out there; this will surely wake you up and give you an energetic boost at any time of the day!
• Doppio, you can never fully complete a big meal without having a doppio after, as per Italian tradition. 😊
We will always come here whenever the opportunity arises, literally the best authentic Italian restaurant in the Valley!
Grazie mille!!! 😎👌

Nonna’s is absolutely wonderful. My family, friends, and I have been dining here for quite a while now. I’ve never had a disappointing experience.
This food is authentic Italian - not Italian-American like you find in NYC or Chicago. Therefore, it might throw some folks off. But it’s amazing.
The staff are friendly and knowledgeable, and Marian (Nonna) makes amazing food with her chefs in back. Steve puts out an amazing truly authentic Italian pizza.
A truly unique, authenic and pleasant experience

Great Napoli style pizza! Crust could be a little fluffier (like in Napoli) but overall great!

Very authentic Italian restaurant. The pizza was amazing!! Especially the sauce, they made it perfectly. I appreciate that they offer sparkling water for free, felt very Italian. The dining area is so cute with various artwork of Italian cities. Will definitely go back!

Steve, Mallory and sierra are amazing. I went for the first time on Wednesday and was immediately back the next day. The pizza is as close to Italy as can be and the same can be said for the carbonara. Everything about this place is authentic and amazing and the staff truly shine. I’ll never be a skinny man as I foresee this place as one I will frequent way too often 😅

We actually didn’t try the dinner food because we didn’t have time to wait that night for a table. So we left with the bakery item consolation prize of a carrot cake muffin, which was the perfect balance of moist and dense, with a frosting not too sweet and just the right consistency. So that was our 5stars!

Authentic! I can't say enough good about this place. Their food is fresh and authentic. Well, I've never been to Italy but I know it tastes better than any other Italian restaurant I've been to so I'm gonna go with AUTHENTIC. I've had several dishes here - all incredibly good- but I always migrate back to the Margherita Pizza. It's a classic but it is delightful. Your belly will thank me after you go!
Vegetarian options: The menu describes ingredients very well. I don't recall the V marking on the menu but I know they are accommodating and very clear.

I went while visiting family. I live in Portland, where good food is easy to come by. This place blows every pizza I’ve ever had out of the water. I know there are different styles of pizza and I’m not sure what their style is but I could eat it every day for the rest of my life. The service was great and the recommendations the server made were spot on. But the pizza… omg. And the Tiramisu was also 100/10.

This is a jewel of the Valley. Authentic, well prepared, excellently cooked food. Where else can you get fresh made pasta and desserts? I had the Chicken Parmessan sandwich with homemade bread. Fantastic!
The sauce is homemade fresh with a lot is seasons and herbs and cooked a long time to get that layered flavor.
Chicken was very well seasoned and perfectly moist.
This is a must go place and a new favorite for us!

One of, if not the best Italian restaurant the Valley has to offer! From the first time we went, we've enjoyed eating from Nonna's Osteria. The chef and staff go out of their way to ensure a pleasurable experience. We feel more like friends than customers whenever we get food here. The "Cheers" of Italian restaurants if you will!

We had a reservation for the Valentines dinner and it was hands down one of the best meals I have ever had!! Every single dish was delicious and the filet was cooked PERFECTLY! The staff was so nice and attentive and the violinist was a beautiful touch to the night. This was our first time there and we will absolutely be coming back very soon! ❤️

Drove an hour to try this place out and when we walked in we were told reservations only. I had looked on their website before and after and nowhere did it say reservations only. There was only one table taken. Would’ve been nice to know before making the drive out there or at least make an exception based on the fact they weren’t busy at the time. We were really looking forward to trying this restaurant. Really disappointing.
