I visited Nonna Tata after a friend recommended it, and while I had high hopes, the experience didn’t quite meet my expectations.
The restaurant is small and cozy, and I believe the concept is to make the food feel like something a mom or grandma would cook—simple, comforting, homemade. While that’s a lovely idea, the execution left something to be desired.
The biggest issue was the flies. There were several flying around during the meal, which was off-putting and raised some concerns about cleanliness. It definitely took away from the experience.
As for the food itself, the salad was fresh and enjoyable. The gnocchi and other pasta dishes were just okay—nothing memorable. The only item I truly enjoyed was the tiramisu, which was creamy and flavorful.
I really wanted to like this place, especially because of the personal recommendation, but the hygiene issues and average food made it a one-time visit for me.

Good homestyle Italian food. We dined at a patio table, it was a little rainy but not enough wind to bother us. The service was great. Its a cash only business mind you, and you can bring your own wine with a corking fee.
I will come again and try something else, the Pollo al Limone was not amazing, but still enjoyable. Loved the house balsamic dressing and Arrabiata (penne+red sauce)
Focaccia was fluffy, bruschetta was great, seared calimari was interesting

This is the best Italian in the metroplex. Ten years ago we traveled to rural Tuscany and discovered a small restaurant in the chefs home. That food was amazing and authentic. I haven’t had Italian like it since then…until we ate at Nonna Tata.

I visited Saturday and have been thinking about it ever since. I could write about 5 paragraphs on how much I enjoyed my experience.
Tips: Cash only* There’s only about 4 tables inside, but the covered patio was quite pleasant on a 98° afternoon* bring wine, they will charge you $3 for a wine glass and they provide a corkscrew

This place is a whole experience. First off, they only take cash or euros—which is both wildly inconvenient and kind of hilarious. Definitely not your typical modern restaurant setup. It’s tiny, unassuming, and super casual, with mismatched tables and chairs that look like they’ve been collected over time. Extra seating is in a plastic-covered patio, which doesn’t exactly scream “fine dining.” So, when I found out you need a reservation and it fills up fast, I was seriously confused—was this place secretly fancy? Spoiler: it’s the complete opposite.
But the food? Incredible. The kind of Italian that makes you forget everything else. Most Italian places serve up sauces that taste pretty similar, but here, every bite felt fresh, unique, and straight out of an Italian kitchen—like they either make their sauces from actual tomatoes and fresh ingredients (which is no small feat) or they’re importing them straight from Italy. Either way, it was next-level good.
My only complaint? Almost everything on the menu has pork in some form, so ordering without modifications is tricky. But if you love authentic, no-frills Italian food, this spot is absolutely worth checking out. Just bring cash. Or, you know, euros.

We absolutely love coming up to this adorable spot for celebrations, especially. We love the fact that we can bring our favorite wine and the pasta dishes never disappoint. Make sure to plan ahead with cash and no reservations but we have never had trouble getting in. Would definitely recommend the gnocchi

I cannot recommend this restaurant enough!!! I have had nothing but amazing experiences while dining in and ordering to-go. Every item I have tried has been exceptional! This is even more amazing since I have food allergies! I have NEVER experienced an issue here. They are always understanding and take me seriously! Give them a try, but bring cash or a check. They do not take credit cards.

I wanted to love this more and it was very good, maybe I just had strangely high expectations. Extremely tiny restaurant. 5 indoor tables total. We arrived 10 or 15 minutes before opening and we’re still 4th in line to be seated.
Calamari was good, but it was unusual to not be breaded, but tasted okay. Goat cheese salad was absolutely delicious. Carbonara was authentic (no cream, only eggs) and was way too much to finish.
The feel is like something in Tuscany or Sicily, but the taste is a little more American-ish.
Reminder, this place is BYOB (plus $3 per glass) and cash only.

Nice atmosphere and home type feel and nice server. However, the food was not Italian food. It was possibly an artistic interpretation of it, but I would say Olive Garden is more authentic and tasty than this place. Having been spoiled by an Italian mother, and lots of wonderful Italian food from Michigan and NYC, I just can’t back this food. If you are going for atmosphere it’s worth trying, but if you want tasty Italian food…try something else.
