We had such a great experience here. I definitely recommend calling and making a reservation ahead of time as this place is tiny! It’s so cozy and quaint with just a few tables indoors. They have an enclosed patio as well as some tables outside also.

As usual, Caffe Nonna did not disappoint. The food was amazing and the service was good. The Feta cheese sticks baked in Phyllo dough were incredible. This is a neighborhood gem that I hope is around for a VERY long time!

We got there a Wednesday, pretty chill and cozy, the bread was awful and I don’t understand why they haven’t changed it if they been saying for a really long time how bad is it? Anyways I ordered a vodka pasta and my brother ordered a white sauce, witch our server said it was the same as an Alfredo sauce, my pasta was delicious but it did have pretty big pieces of garlic and onion which didn’t really bother me, but it really did bother my brother that he’s had those pieces and a really big chunk of onion, and he said he’s pasta was kind of sweet and had a really weird flavor, he didn’t like it to the pint he didn’t even finish it but didn’t want to bother the chefs, so we ordered the tiramisu to get that bad taste away but to my surprise it was a really small serving for 8.50 dollars, you could it in 4-6 bites and it was kind of warm,soggy, and had wiped cream on the side, really poor presentation. But at least service was great.

Really cool and quaint spot for good Italian dishes. We had a larger group so it was a tight fit but this is a smaller restaurant, so understandable. Service was fine.

Personally this is my favorite restaurant in Nashville. I have been many times and have never been let down. Every dish is an explosion of flavors. From the appetizers to the desserts. Here is what we tried this evening I highly recommend all of it.

Wednesday evening my work team enjoyed an “end of fiscal year” celebratory dinner after a two-day planning retreat to kick off our new year — we couldn’t have chosen a better plan than Caffé Nonna! A neighborhood restaurant that’s been around for nearly a quarter century surely has the experience and true charm to entertain you with a fantastic meal! We had the calamari (cooked to perfection) and the caprese salad with homegrown, fresh cut, yellow tomatoes to start. Simply gorgeous on the plate and on the taste buds! Everyone has a different entree…you’ll see they’re all plated to perfection and the me asks were excellent. We tried both versions of lasagna, the seafood pasta and the lamb shank (the meat fell right off the bone! We also enjoyed Cesar salads to start and cannoli to end. The atmosphere is so charming and the service was impeccable — something that’s rare to come by these days! Every part of this meal was superb and no details went unnoticed. I’ll be back — I’ll bring my team back. Caffé Nonna is truly a Nashville gem!

Monday night reservations led to a culinary experience we will never forget. We started with Roma Mussels and Arancini and had the Lamb Shank and Lasagna for mains. Look…I have had many meals over the last 30+ years, and this by far was my favorite meal in the last 20 years. I bought the kitchen a round of beers and thanked them for the wonderful journey they sent us on. Words and text cannot describe the flavors and love we experienced here. Please do yourself a favor and eat here if you can! Service and wine were beyond our expectations!

Shout to the chef for the delish dinner we had. We sat outside to enjoy the beautiful weather. Corkage fee is a little pricey. So make sure you order their house wine. It’s okay.

I absolutely love this restaurant! Great for date night, a special occasion or even if you’re just looking for some great family owned Italian. Caffe Nonna is a must-visit!
