I will never dine at this restaurant again. Bit off way more than they could chew with Valentine's Day holiday. My wife and I arrived on time for a 7pm reservation and were immediately seated only to be waiting for my entree for over an hour and twenty minutes as I watched a couple that came in at the same time as us eat their entire three course meal. Waitress either forgot to put our entree in or kitchen staff messed up because she came up to us asking if we wanted they check although we had still not recieved our entrees. Waitress then told us our entrees would be first one out after realizing the mistake only for us to have to wait another 30 mins for our food to come out as we watched others receive their entrees during that time. Clearly they just forgot about us. Although they tried to rectify the issue and did not charge us for the appetizers we did receive by that point my we had lost all of our patience and appetite along with it. If you couldn't handle more volume than you're used too in an effort to squeeze more money out of the holiday than maybe you shouldn't have tried and it would've been easier on the staff and a better dining experience for your customers. Overall worst dining experience I have ever had and I would never recommend this place to anyone.

We had an amazing experience tonight. They did a wonderful job setting the ambiance for a special Valentine’s dinner. It was beautiful. The service was great and the women were treated with a thoughtful rose from the owner. We enjoyed every dish we ordered. Scallops, short rib ragu, crème brûlée and cheesecake were beyond delicious. And the bread was fantastic! Highly recommend. ❤️🍽️🇮🇹

First time back to this place in many years. Had a group of 12 and I need to tip my hat to Dean, Erica and the rest of the staff and Nana's Kitchen. Excellent job by everyone. Food was fantastic, service was top notch and just a really nice vibe to the place. We will definitely be back!!!

Disappointing experience at Nana's Kitchen. The food was bland and forgettable, especially for the price, and the service was painfully slow despite the restaurant not being crowded. Definitely not worth the wait, and we won't be coming back.

Nana’s is awesome !! Their food is great, the staff are friendly and super accommodating — i went to a first birthday party there and had a great time. Pretty little parties set up all of the decor and it was just a great time.

BYOD! Important to know this before reserving. Of course is labeled as that however when you're not used to that setting you could miss this important point of the event. Nothing to worry about tho becase Doordash was able to arrive with drinks and the restaurant was extremely accommodating with our wine/sparkling. Ivonne our waiter was excellent and all the other waiters that served as well. The meetballs and octopus were out of this world. Will definitely come back again!!

Rushed. Food was great. Chicken Parmesan was fantastic, eggplant rigatoni was great. Constant asking if we were done was extremely annoying. Dishes were half full and we were actively working on the meal and had to answer this question about 5 times during the dinner. Everything else was great. Clean, quite and warm. But my goodness let people eat at their leisure.

Food did not come out hot. The gnocchi was extremely mushy. However, it all had good flavor. The entertainment got very loud and we felt like we were on a party cruise. Food took extremely long to come out. Especially dessert. From start to finish, dinner took about three hours.
