Nonna Angela’s Italian Bistro

We had dinner at the restaurant on Saturday January 3 with a group of six adults. The service of the wait staff was courteous and friendly and everyone enjoyed their meals and wine. However the hostesses were rude and unprofessional. At the end of our meal, we all got up from the table and my wife excused herself to go to the rest room and she came back to the table and her jacket was gone and left over box was at an adjacent table and a new group of customers were sitting at the table we occupied. My wife asked the bus person where her jacket was and he told her that they had to get the table turned over and to check up front with the hostess. My wife then went up and asked the hostess if she had a coat and the hostess replied oh yeah, we have one and it is lucky we have it. And my wife replied that was rude comment and staff should not have taken my coat. The hostess replied… well, we have to move on and turn the table over for the next group of customers. This after we spent well over $300 for dinner. I have never had this sort of situation happen at a restaurant. While food was good, and wait staff courteous, this is not the way to treat customers, especially after spending several hundred dollars. That situation should not ever happen at a restaurant.

We went on Sunday 11/9/25 3:30pm and both of us thought our food was rather bland and tasteless. We had hoped for, and expected it to be much better based on the reviews we read. They did have 2 groups of people in the side curtained room area, so perhaps the cooks were off their game that day and forgot to add any seasoning & spice to the dishes? Either way, we didnt enjoy our entrees, were very dissapointed and won't be going back.

Small yet cozy. Has tables for large parties of 8-10. The food always is on point and authentic Italian.

We really enjoyed ourselves at this restaurant! The food as amazing and the sauce was homemade. 😋 The Mozzarella Fritta's were very yummy. We got the Stuffed Shells, with the vodka sauce. Our waiter recommended the vodka sauce and it did not disappoint- so good! Also, got the 7 Fish Linguine dish. Then finished with the tasty Salted Caramel layered cake🍰 special- top tier! My only negative comment is that the floor seemed to have a lot of food on it. Other than that, the service was great.

The pasta is delicious. It comes in a reasonable portion size: not huge but not unsatisfying. The free bread is great too, though I wish the oil and basilica vinegar it comes with had more that a small dot of vinegar in the bowl. The atmosphere is very comfortable and the decorations are tasteful.

I’m not sure if things would’ve been better if we dined in but my partner and I ordered almost 100 dollars worth of food for takeout and most of it ended up in the trash. The portion size is ridiculous considering what you’re paying. The stuffed shells? He got three. Just three. And the lobster ravioli, which was nearly forty dollars for one entree, was so bad, all I could do was take a single bite before feeling queasy. The dessert was mediocre and the ice cream was pretty much soup, and we were there at pickup time on the dot. I usually don’t leave bad reviews for places, but I don’t want anyone to have the same experience we just had. It sucks when you decide to splurge as a once in a blue moon treat for yourself and your family and you end up throwing away all that hard earned money. The only thing we enjoyed was the bread rolls — which look pretty identical to the pack of rolls you could get from a grocery store around thanksgiving time.

One word: Over-rated. Publicized and draped as if there is some “authenticity” to the “Italian-ship” (no such word but you get the drift) of the food here. Nope. No such thing. To test the “Italian-ness” of the food I simply ordered a dish of spaghetti and meat sauce. The taste was bland and unsavoring .. spaghetti our of a Ronzoni box no doubt, dredged in a meat sauce out of a jar. The price for this simple dish was quadruple of what one could make at home with so much more flavor. My side dish? Again, I kept it simple .. broccoli. They can’t even cook that correctly. Pieces of the vegetable were overcooked and others were undercooked. Terrible. Do not waste your time or money …

Food was trash!! I ordered the Linguine Vongole it had no flavor! My plate looked like noodles sitting in water! I asked for Alfredo sauce (which they charge extra for, I didn’t care) but it helped the dish but still wasn’t enough. My partner got the 7 Fish Linguine and it looked amazing but tasted bland.
The Mozzarella Caprese was good just needed more sauce.
The wine was AMAZING and our waiter was okay.

Had the baked Ziti at the bar. It made my stomach hurt later but it was worth it.😂 Good vibes. Good wine. Great food.

Very nice place, food is delicious and the most important is the staff are very friendly, highly recommended Italian place in Crofton, Md

Went for the first time yesterday and I don’t know why I waited so long?!?! It’s only because I didn’t know about them! My new fav spot!!! Happy hour is the best! Portions are huge and you feel the love in every bite. The staff was so friendly and welcoming. We had Annie at the bar and she was amazing! Can’t wait to go back!
