The food was all delicious. Sausage was perfectly cooked and seasoned. Pasta had great flavor and all the dishes were filling. Service was a bit slow and they made a few weird remarks to us. The design of the space is very cozy and everything was arranged nicely.

Love this restaurant on Church Street in Montclair. Their food is excellent, service is great, ambiance is so nice. I’ve been here many times, quality of the food is always. Every dishes I have tried are good. Reservation is highly recommended as they are quite busy. This is BYOB place.

Scala del nonna feels nostalgic. From the moment you walk in this place is so inviting.

We were happy to arrive at this indoor outdoor dining, great vibes, hot spot in Montclair. The staff were all working hard. The food was absolutely delicious. We enjoyed fresh pasta, meatballs and the best ever sole. Though full we indulged in the amazing desserts. I was surprised by how great they were. The three gelatin and walnut torte we’re perfection and more!! Great night here indeed.

This is such a nice Italian restaurant in Montclair! It’s really nice inside plus it has outdoor seating as well. I recommend making reservations as it’s always packed even today on Fourth of July every table was taken! I don’t blame everybody for coming here today on the holiday! I’d much rather dine here then go to a Fourth of July barbecue! Even though they were so busy the staff was really nice, and my waiter made some great recommendations. They started me with fresh baked bread with sautéed onions, and it was so good! For appetizer I had the lamb and pork meatballs in a light onion and guanciale infused tomato sauce with whipped ricotta, and that was DELICIOUS! I highly recommend ordering them! They were nice and soft, and the sauce had a great flavor to it! For my entree I had the veal pappardelle con osso buco which was very good! The pasta was cooked perfectly, and it was a nice portion. The desserts were all house made here, and I had the ricotta cheesecake. I thought that was just ok. I’m really looking forward to coming back and trying more dishes! Prices were pretty reasonable too! Parking wasn’t bad at all because there is large parking garage located in back of the restaurant. I highly recommend dining at Scala Del Nonna in Montclair!

The food, the service, and overall atmosphere makes this a restaurant you really have to try. It will be worth it! It is BYOB and for added convenience, there is a well stocked wine store next door.
