First time here tonight. 10/10 experience. The kitchen is absolutely on point. Love the attention to detail and quality towards every ingredient of every dish (ordered about 7 different things) They combine incredible flavors, perfectly executed. Really just had the perfect meal. Thank you for that and all you do to make it happen.On the same level as the food was the service. Our server was as good as it gets. She was genuine, perfect timing every time, not intrusive, and extremely intelligent, top level. She took a bunch of extra time to share her deep knowledge of the menu and give us the ultimate dining experience. Couldn't have been better in anyway. Beyond appreciated. Her name was Kate F.Bravo Nana's... dope spot that I will definitely be recommending to a bunch of people. I've been a foodie/industry worker for a long time, always in search of experiences like this. Looking forward to coming back.

Nanas sells foie gras, which is basically when you shove a pipe down a tortured ducks' throat three times a day to make their liver 10 times normal size. They aren't willing to listen to their customers when it comes to this; they hang up / send to automated message whenever you try to call with concerns.

Nanas sells diseased duck liver from tortured duck (foie gras). When I called to express my concerns, I asked for a manager, and they refused. When I mentioned I wanted to talk about foie gras, they sent me to an automated humane-washing message about foie gras. Either this restaurant is oblivious to how their food is sourced, or they enjoy patronizing their customers.Do not eat here.

I called to ask a question about fois gras and was immediately put through to voicemail without a word. It felt cold to be treated that way. I don’t understand why this new management at Nana’s is so rude to customers.

I called to ask a question about foie gras and immediately got some recording with sad music talking about how ethical Nanas is in their menu choices. Very impersonal and rude. I would have preferred to talk to someone. This new management is pretty sad.

DON'T EAT HERE! They have animal cruelty on the menu.I am disappointed and frankly disgusted that they serve foie gras. I know foie gras requires the brutal force-feeding of ducks or geese to engorge their liver, a practice called gavage, and it's widely considered to be one of the cruelest practices in animal farming. Look it up if you can bear animal suffering. India, California, New York City, and Pittsburgh have all banned foie gras, and over a dozen countries have banned the force-feeding necessary to produce it.I listened to your recording when I called, Nanas. Abhorrent that you make excuses rather than stop selling it.

Love the new Nanas! Great atmosphere and such a fun date night option. Service is a little rough still but they’ve only just opened - will absolutely go back again and again!
What an experience. Chef Matt really hit a home run on the aesthetic, team hiring, menu, and execution. The chicken liver mousse was exceptional. Most tender chicken I've had in my life. Menu is very complex and inventive - as a former cook - I was very impressed. Make a reservation guys! Totally one of the best restaurants within a 50 mile radius.

Everything top notch. From the atmosphere, decor, lighting, textures, acoustics, to the drinks, food, and service. Clearly so much attention to detail. 6 stars!
Nana’s could be great but unfortunately they still serve foie gras, or tortured duck liver. This cruel and outdated practice is banned in several cities and should not be a part of the triangle. They also treat anyone who asks about this very poorly and refuse to have respectful convos :(Vegetarian options: Need more vegan options

Yikes. I called to ask if they serve foie gras because I saw something on social media and the lady on the phone said nothing and immediately forwarded me to a recording. The recording is full of a bunch of pretty marketing words to appease upset patrons. Seems like they're on damage control but in the most impersonal, unapproachable way ever. I'm really disappointed honestly. Be better, Nana's.
