Reviews
Some of my favorite dishes (pictures don’t do it justice): Eggplant Parmesan, Nona’s Favorite, Lobster Ravioli, And don’t leave without trying their homemade tiramisu — it’s truly to die for! Oh, and the house bread with dipping oil? My husband and I literally fight over it — it’s that good. We’re proud to be lifelong customers. If you’re looking for the best Italian food around, this is it. Highly, highly recommend!!!
Nona’s Italian Grill is hands-down the best Italian spot in The Woodlands and surrounding areas—I’ve tried several, and nothing comes close to this level of perfection.
We started with their bread and that insanely delicious dipping sauce—seriously, the most amazing one I’ve ever had. It’s rich, garlicky, herby, and addictive; we could’ve just eaten bread and sauce all night and been happy!
Then came the main event: Nona’s Favorite chicken with fettuccine. This dish is straight-up top 10 I’ve ever eaten in my life. The chicken is perfectly sautéed, tender, and flavorful with artichokes, mushrooms, and that bright lemon-white wine sauce, all tossed with creamy fettuccine Alfredo. Every bite was pure bliss—balanced, comforting, and elevated without being fussy. I was speechless (which is rare for me at dinner!).
Shoutout to our server David—he gave us excellent, attentive service from start to finish. Friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience feel special.
If you’re in The Woodlands (or willing to drive a bit), do yourself a favor and go to Nona’s. Authentic, hearty Italian done right. We’ll be back again and again. Highly recommend—5 stars isn’t enough!

My wife was on the mood for just spaghetti and meatballs, the meatballs very tender.
Service and food were amazing.
Definitely coming back.
From the atmosphere the moment we walked into Nona’s, hearing the soft and lovely tune of a piano being played, to the lighting that set the most charming and cozy ambiance on that cold night, to the super friendly staff (Juan was our waiter and another young man also assisted us at times), to the drinks (I had two blueberry mules that were truly exquisite), and yes, to the food. The bread and oil concoction are still being talked about in my home (we’re kicking ourselves for forgetting to buy a bottle of the oil). My kids are kids so they ordered basic pastas that they both thoroughly enjoyed, but my husband’s chicken parm was PHENOMENAL (I know some might not be wow’d by chicken parm but trust me, not every restaurant can make one *this* good). My beef ravis in a pesto sauce were to die for. Finally, we shared a delicious Greek salad and an order of calamari that I initially didn’t want, because I have never enjoyed how heavily breaded and fried it is at literally every other restaurant. It was perfection at Nona’s! Even our daughter enjoyed it. We capped dinner off with a chocolate cake slice and a slice of key lime pie. The only advice I could even give Nona’s is that the key lime could be more tart, but we still gobbled that down just as every other thing we ordered.
Long review, but the short of it is 5 stars all the way and we are already planning to go back this weekend. After 7 years, we finally found our favorite Italian spot.
The escargot was some of the best we’ve ever had. We ordered from the lunch menu. Hubby had spaghetti and meatballs. I chose lasagna. Both were excellent!
We both chose soup of the day to go with the lunch special. It was minestrone and very tasty! We also loved the bread and oil.
We will definitely be back!
Walking in to the restaurant, the first thing that stuck out to me was the live music playing in the background. I loved the performance and thought it was a perfect fit for the classy atmosphere the restaurant has. You can tell that Nona’s is an expensive establishment (average for Italian food) but in return will have an amazing experience.
After we sat down our waitress Heidi brought us complementary bread and oil, which was a 6/10. I think pouring the oil for us individually on our plates was a nice touch. I wasn’t too fond of the bread, however. The inside was nice and soft, but I wanted the outside to be more firm. The oil was also very nice with an intense garlic flavor, but I think it could have used a pinch more salt.
We ordered some bruschetta for our appetizers after a short wait, and I loved it. The bruschetta was a solid 8.5/10, with the only criticism I have is that the tomatoes didn’t look super fresh.
After another short wait, our entrees came in. We ordered a beef tortellini portobella (6.5/10), beef ravioli fra diavolo (8/10), and Nona’s favorite (7/10) with a side of croquettes (9.5/10). The portion sizes are perfect; not too big so that’s overwhelming, but enough to fill us up. The tortellini portobella was decent, but nothing about the dish stood out specifically. The ravioli was what I ordered and thought it was the best tasting; the beef, tomatoes, and spice came out very well creating a strong dish. I think the Nona’s favorite tasted very good and flavor-wise was an 8/10, but I did not like the presentation. The sauce was too thin, there wasn’t enough color as the entire dish was a pale yellow (with some green cilantro), and the artichoke hearts and mushrooms were stacked on the chicken when I would have liked the dish to be a little more spread out. Finally, the croquettes were amazing. The outside was crispy, and the potatoey goodness on the inside was nice and soft. The only thing lacking was some marinara sauce on the side. Not that the dish was dry, just that I think a little bit of tomato would have gone a long way.
Overall, we had an excellent experience. Heidi was great as our waitress, and our total came out to be ~$110, which is a lot for three people. I don’t know whether I’ll come back here with that price, but I would give Nona’s a recommendation as I enjoyed being here.
