First time in Saranac Lake and I went there to view the 2024 total solar eclipse. I'm from Long Island, family and wife grew up in NYC, I know good pizza. Let me tell you that I was blown away by the true NYC quality slice I had. It rivals the likes of Joe's pizza in the village and flat out beats most Long Island pizzerias. The thin slice cheese was not too thin, crispy with no flop (but not burnt by any means), and perfect ratio or sauce, cheese, oil. 6 hours north of Long Island I assumed any pizza joint would be garbage in comparison, but I was pleasantly surprised!Don't change anything! Next time I am back I will 100% be getting another pie!

Lasagna was nice & piping hot all the way through. Service was a little slow, but it was Eclipse weekend and busy. All the diners seemed to enjoy the food but it was a one & done for me.

Looks like ours is an unpopular opinion of this establishment. We were staying in the area for the weekend and decided to give Nonna Fina's a try. As we walked in, there was a sign stating they only accepted cash or check. Not a problem - it was nice that we knew that going in. For those who don't carry cash - have no fear there is an ATM in the lobby. We sat at a table by the window and had a lovely view of Lake Saranac and our hotel. When asked what we would like to drink - said we were good with just water thank you. The waitress brought over two bottles of Disani - not explanation for why bottled and not tap but okay. For our dinner we ordered eggplant Parm hero with extra sauce (12 inch size) and a cheese calzone. I asked if the calzone came with a side of sauce and the waitress said you can have that. Okay, great. Food came and the eggplant hero was very skimpy and dry. Tried to get the waitress attention to no avail. My husband went to the pizza counter and politely asked for the additional sauce and they told him she put it on there. Husband said that it was very dry and they reluctantly gave him a small amount of sauce. We ate our dinner. The eggplant was not very good and actually looked like it was not freshly made - like something you get from the freezer section of the supermarket. The calzone was just okay. We asked for the check and when I went to pay, I felt that the bill was a little high so I looked it over and to my surprise they not only charged of for the two bottles of water (okay, I understand), the extra sauce for both my husband ($1.75) and mine ($1.25) they had the nerve to add in an 18% tip to the bill. I have never heard of a restaurant doing that for a party of just 2. Had I not checked that, the waitress would have received that 18% plus a 20% tip I normally leave. I felt that was very tricky on their part. After catching it I just left the total on the bill and no more. So - my advice to anyone going here - be prepared, ask questions about what it is you get and if there are any extra charges. And most importantly, be aware that they sneak the tip onto the bill total.

Nona Fina Pizzeria is a favorite to our family. We live here locally and visit often. Their food and menu is great with a lot of variety. The wait staff is friendly, Accommodating, and attentive. The dining room looks fantastic, and it’s very cozy in the winter by the Fireplace. I highly recommend coming in for pizza or anything else on the menu.

Our family of 5 stopped in for lunch today. They only had a couple of tables being used, plenty of space. We were seated and were offered menus promptly. And I promptly had spaghetti sauce on my finger from picking up the menu. Service was fine, however I asked about the calzones, if they were soft or crusty. Waitress said they were soft. We ended up ordering 5 different calzones! When they were brought to our table, they were all over done, crunchy and even hard to cut through the bottom crust. We won't be back especially after the bill was over $105.

The food was okay. Pretty usual Italian food, pizza was good. But what I found ridiculous is that half of our party of eight said we were fine with just water when the server took our drink order. She brought us each an Aquafina bottled water that were already opened. Then we were charged $3.00 for each water. No warning was given about this. That’s crazy. I’ll never go back.
