Nonna's Sheffield in Sheffield

I was in town visiting family and took me here for dinner. What an incredible experience, this is how dining out should be. We started with a drink at the restaurant’s bar next door which had the perfect blend of cosiness with modern touches. Chatting to some of the locals they said we’d be in for a treat and they weren’t wrong! From the moment we sat at the table we were greeted by the friendly waiting staff. Nothing was too much trouble and even though it was Friday night and very busy this didn’t compromise the level service we received. We had a mix of olives, bruschetta and dips to start followed one of the best bowls of pasta I’ve had. The Sausage Tagliatelle delivered on every aspect, perfectly cooked al dente pasta made to perfection. The sausage was slow cooked with a rich deep Tuscan flavour with a hint of chilli. Whenever I’m next in Sheffield I’ll definitely be returning back to this gem of a restaurant which transports you to Italy with a sprinkle of northern charm thrown in!

Superb Italian restaurant. All the food was great, but the stand out dish was the nduja risotto which had a perfectly mild chilli heat level for me. I will definitely add it my risottos at home!

Great place, great staff and lovely food.

One of my favourite restaurants, Highly recommended, Food is fabulous, Lovely ambience.

Great welcoming place. Booked table for me and my wife’. The food was fabulous the staff Natalia recommended what to have steak asparagus and potatoes with mushrooms. sauce. Can’t thank them enough Natalia is a gem really helpful lovely lady. Enrich with his fantastic humour.. highly recommend.

Food was brilliant, service in the restaurant was exceptional. In the bar the time between last orders and the security guard asking us in a brusque manner to leave was only about 10 minutes which didn't feel like enough time. Either last orders needs to be earlier or kicking out time needs to be a few minutes later. A spritz is a hard drink to get through quickly!

I have been a few times - truly an incredible restaurant, if friends are visiting town I tend to bring them here for a meal! The menu offers classic dishes as well as innovative recipes, and the food is full of flavour. The service is very good, orders are taken quickly, staff are willing to make a substitution (within reason!), and generally staff are smiling and attentive. The decorum feels on the luxurious side, with a certain cosiness created by the lighting, and the music isn’t too loud. Overall, a favourite restaurant of mine and I hope they keep everything up :)

Starters were the highlight. Mains were good (similar to other restaurants in Sheffield). Desserts were average, not the best I’ve had in Sheffield. But overall service was worrying! The food runners were great but management was not paying attention. We constantly had to go retrieve someone for service and they were caught up in their own conversation at the door.

Fantastic food, lovely staff and service. Will definitely be back

Always a lovely way to spend time with your fave coffee. Staff are super friendly and efficient. Their in house staff banter and singing creates a lovely atmosphere.

We had a really lovely evening. The seafood risotto was delicious.

We order Still water, pasta Amatriciana and Rigatoni Scamorza. Water was served from a bottle that was already opened, waitress didn't open on the table in front of customers... The Cheese used for the pasta wasn't Scamorza as indicated on the Menu and also I specifically requested to have the pasta aldente but unfortunately was over coocked nearly like glue. The pasta Amatriciana was very poor on Pancetta, with a very minimal amount of it, the Menu indicated Red Onion but it was over saturated with standard Onion,unfortunately they used the Onion as the main ingredient for the sauce instead of Pancetta.

You can't know how to eat Italian food if you've never done it, you can't know the taste of Italian products and dishes, these are not things you can explain or even imagine, you just have to decide to go and try it yourself, only then will you understand what you've missed, eating Italian food is one of life's pleasures.

Walked in spontaneously and wow what a delight it was. Beautiful atmosphere, lovely food and amazing service. Everything was lovely and we'll definitely be back. If youre walking past nonna get in now, you won't be disappointed.

I've never been there in person and I'm sure the food is great, but found £18 for a takeaway tagliere a bit too much when other respectable pizzerias in Sheffield can offer a lot more at the same price. Never again a tagliere from here 😅

We turned up without a booking and were welcomed with open arms. The service was exceptional. The cocktails were delicious and prepared our tummies for some of the best food I have tasted. I had the seafood risotto and my wife had the chicken breast. Both were delicious. I think the value for the quality of the food is superb. Thank you so much for making us feel so welcome. Thank you for the excellent food and atmosphere. We will be back!!

Good food. Excellent service. They do need to look at their wine options. £32 for their cheapest bottle of red. £39 for a decent bottle of red is a little excessive. You're in Sheffield guys, not Mayfair.

Lovely food with great company. Friendly service

Joint best Italian in Sheffield but best for coffee and daytime atmosphere and evening bar. Grazie shares the spot for pure food.

Very tasty food, I had Risotto Nduja which was excellent. Thank you .

Just have Latte there,atmosphere was nice, old Italian classic music. Had coffe only,because other things was bit priced.

Very enjoyable food, great service and an overall wonderful experience. Food is a little pricey, though. Would recommend the limoncello!

A latte here comes as a single espresso shot, and is small. If you ask for an extra shot then you will pay £4.55 for a small latte. Far too much for Sheffield, even in 2024. I do like this place and will probably return but my experience the last couple of times has been spoilt by screaming children. It’s clearly a child friendly establishment but at the detriment of everyone else’s experience (for almost £5 a coffee I don’t want to be sitting in a crèche).

Brilliant food friendly service couldn't fault it if I tried

We went here for our anniversary date night and it was the best place to go! The food was incredible, service was great, the atmosphere was romantic, and the owner came by and said hello and was incredibly welcoming. Definitely our new go-to italian restaurant in Sheffield

I love this restaurant and really enjoyed a lovely relaxing dinner with my friend. Some of the staff have worked at the restaurant forever and take time to welcome customers old and new. Bit more expensive these days,but isn't everywhere. I had the Salmon and Courgette pasta with Lemon. So delicious that I cooked my version of the dish last week at home. The chocolate mousse was to die for. Nonna does fabulous desserts so make sure you have room. Thanks Stefano and team ❤️

As always, excellent food, welcoming staff.

If this restaurant didn’t charge such a high price for the food I would have given it a much higher rating. It’s in a very nice part of town and the service was very good, but it just isn’t good enough value for money. We had one cocktail each, a portion of bruschetta each, one cream of spinach pasta with no meat or fish and a small portion of gnocchi and the bill came to over £70! £16 for a portion of pasta that contains no meat or fish is very difficult to justify in my opinion. I wouldn’t mind if this was a fine dining establishment with white tablecloths and excellent service, but I didn’t even have to extend my arm to touch the next table we were so close! It didn’t feel intimate or relaxing at all, and we also witnessed the manager telling off one of the staff twice!

Lovely place, enjoyed the food and the service was fab.

Absolutely beautiful food, tastes really fresh. Definitely would visit again

An amazing place to visit. The service was very good especially the owner, very attentive and polite. The atmosphere was lovely and very welcoming. The food we had was superb. Everything was cooked perfectly and very balanced, which made the dishes a pleasure to eat and enjoy. The wine selection is also very good quality (it went down a little too well). Overall, I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for some of the best Italian food in the city.

Lovely meal with my daughter. Attentive service, good food and lovely atmosphere/lighting. Easy to relax

Proper Italian with great food and great service. Pasta was velvety smooth.

Literally the best pasta I’ve ever eaten! The Vele Al Tartufo was literally to die for as well as the focaccia 👌🏻 cocktails and mocktails were also delicious. We will be back again soon.

Great food fantastic staff and great atmosphere Well done nonnas

Great coffee, disappointed with our breakfasts as we didn't actually receive what we had ordered. We assume they must have run out of some products but would have liked to be made aware as we may have chosen differently. My husband ordered the Italian style breakfast but it was served with a plain pork sausage & smoked bacon, instead of any Italian meat so so apart from the stew (amazing btw) it was a English breakfast. I ordered the pancetta & scrambled eggs but again, I got smoked bacon. As we had ordered any coffee when our menus were brought to the table, we planned to mention it when the coffee arrived. Unfortunately, no one came back to our table so my husband went to ask about them once he had finished his food. We finished our coffee, went up & paid then left. Really hoping it was a bad day as all the menus look great & the atmosphere is lovely. Will try again but don't think it will be any time soon

Gorgeous food and friendly, helpful service. Definitely get yourself over here. Service is quick and there's a lot of choices on the menu inc vegetarian, gluten free and vegan.

Came here for drinks so cannot rate on the food. This is a small bar and the drinks list is pretty good. The espresso martinis are very strong I did feel a bit off afterwards, deffo can't have too many of these. For a cocktail and pint of moretti it was just under £16. Not a bad place to come in for a drink when on eccy road

Food and service were both excellent

Great atmosphere, good service, delicious food. Felt slightly rushed.

My room was upgraded! Had a noce view from the balcony.

Worst cocktail ever not even alcohol in the cocktail

Faultless! Reception and service was perfect. Food we selected was beautiful... Shame it got a bit loud in the bar area... But hey, it was Xmas Eve after all! We are sure to return. Grazie!

What a fantastic place, great food friendly staff, fast service and great atmosphere. Thanks for a great afternoon.

Absolutely fantastic. Wonderful staff and fabulous food.

Good coffee. Home made toasted ciabatta withdelucious fillings. Worth another visit

Food ok but should have been better for the price. Waiting staff working flat out.

Cakes looked amazing, but I didn't eat one so can't comment. Great atmosphere with a live band playing, wonderful catchup with family

Incredible place where you can experience the authentic Italian atmosphere.

We didn't eat this evening, but the g atmosphere was vibrant, the service was great, and the bar staff were very attentive.

fantastic place, great food, great service

Rude staff, 3 different waitresses came to table to offer free table water that we clearly had in had in our hands then had the cheek to charge you 3.95 for said water and the woman in the black top om the day needs to learn manners and personal space. food was dire none of the food was fresh you could just tell it wasnt and made me go to the toilet with extreme stomach ache and toilet issues for the next two days and they place an optional service tip on the bill without letting you even have that option of taking it off.

This is a very good place, but somehow standards of food are sliding down. Pasta is not as delicious as it used to be few years back, still good, but not excellent anymore. However, risotto can be recommended without doubts. Overall, it is a nice place to be with good choice of Italian wines.

Fantastic place nice atmosphere was busy but service was good and fast The food was amazing very tasty and very filling. Will come back really enjoyed it.

We were there for a dinner/venue night and it couldn't have been any better. All round great night out.

Brilliant! Great service. Sarah has an eye for detail and served with excellence and friendliness. Lovely meal. Faultless. Thank you.

Staff were brilliant and hat off to the chef 😇

Best food I’ve had in months. I want to eat their truffle ravioli every day forever until I die

Superb food and really friendly service. Will return when I'm next back in Sheffield. Grazie Mille 👍

Lovely drink watching the world go by on Eccy Road. The food looked lovely so I am tempted to head back to sample it.

I really like it here. Delicious food and great service.

Friendly staff, stunning food. Great for a meal or just a coffee and cake.

Had the most amazing meal with the most amazing person to me. It was a lovely special evening 😊

Excellent ambience and excellent food.

Worst and most expensive flat white I've ever had! When questioned price was told I had asked for a shot on the side! Actually asked for a one shot and one of the 2 shots it should have on the side! Apparently it only comes with 1 shot! Mushrooms on toast ...1 slice bread, weird Mushrooms could have done with a little sauce and seasoning! Won't be returning as staff totally not interested.

Alto livello from the daiquiri to the chocolate mousse. Superb. The owners are not here to please the masses, they are here to operate at another level. Ottimo

Every time I go here I am reminded just how the food is truly beautiful. The service is second to none and the team make you feel looked after and treat everyone with respect. I dropped a glass by accident and they even replaced the ladies food next to me as they were concerned some may have fallen in her bowl....that just shows how seriously they take customer care. Thank you to that lady for being so understanding. Very well priced for what you receive. I can not wait to return!

Fantastic food, excellent friendly service and the atmosphere was fantastic with live music playing in the next room. Will most definitely be making another visit soon!

Remarkably expensive food with impressively poor quality 😵 Risotto was not quite generous on the portion of mushrooms… And all deserts were toooooooo sweet. Lasagna was burnt and about a ton of salt was added… Tiramisu has wet coffee powder, too much sugared mascarpone and little cake with no sense of existence… I’ve tried a few Italian and I this might be the worst. Service was ok, but a bit slow. Not recommended unless you have someone you love to sit with to compensate for the harm of the food 🥴

Everything was great. Food tasty, coffee as should be, service with a smile. Definitely recommend.

Visited early Monday evening for family celebration. Shown to our pre booked table straight away. Drinks orders were taken. Took up the offer of buy two glasses of wine for the price of one before 7pm (selected wines). The food menu selection was really interesting. The waiter took three attempts to take our order as the choices were so difficult to make. He took it all in his stride. Once taken, our courses arrived in a timely manner and no one was left waiting for a dish. Everything we received was outstanding. Well cooked and well presented. We were in there some 2&1/2 hours we were at no time under any pressure or obligation to leave. Although it got busy as the night progressed it was never noisy. Quite relaxing. All in all we had 2 beers, 6 glasses of wine and a bottle of champagne. Very generous and varied starters. Great tasting main dishes that were of generous sizes. Rounded of with delicious desserts. £301. Sounds a lot maybe? I don't know. We all considered it good value.

Lovely place! Visited on a quiet Tuesday evening but the bar still had a brilliant vibe. Great selection of wines. Really authentic Italian feel in general! Really nice touch to bring over the complimentary snacks! Would definitely return - and hopeful for longer than a quick drink!!!

We went for a celebration lunch and as ever it was delicious. Bread and olives as a starter, a glass of wine and afogato to finish makes any lunchtime special. Nonna's has to be a sheffield tradition now , we have been going for over 35 yrs sonit must be doing some things right .

Amazing restaurant. Food was excellent 👌 can not speak highly enough about the whole experience. Staff did not rush you but also didn't forget about you. Every where was nice and clean and it was spacious.. you must visit if in the area.

A little bit of Italy on the Porter.

Wheelchair access, friendly and happy staff, good food, lots of happy looking customers.

It's okay. Bruschetta was amazing. Great atmosphere in a fabulous little corner of Sheffield. Pricing is disproportionate. Does not match the quality. The main course was far too expensive for what it was.

Really enjoyed the food and the service was fab. We went on a Saturday and the music from the bar was really loud so I’d ask to be seated in the far room.

Very nice relaxed place to eat. Great food & drink Very friendly and helpful staff

Honestly when we went there first thing came to mind was how to pronounce it. And is there any Pizza? But the staffs were amazing.. very polite and helpful. I order a fish called “Pollo Arrosto” just by reading the description and they said it might take 20-25mins, was thinking what!!! But mark my word it’s incredible, the taste was just perfect. I loved it from the first bite.. love to back again here if I got a chance to come to Sheffield!! Good stuffs keep it up..

The place has a great atmosphere and the workers are so friendly. If you're looking for some good Italian and willing to pay £15 for a main this is the place to go. Do note they don't have pizza.

Easily the BEST Italian restaurant in Sheffield plus the very kind staffs ❤️

Most enjoyable looking forward to a return visit

Best wine bar in Sheffield, great and varying live music acts, friendly staff, recommended

It's a decent Italian. Nothing more. Nothing less. Can get busy. It's fine for a mid week meal but not a special occasion.

Quick and friendly service. Excellent food (vegan risotto, rigatoni 'all arrabiata, garlic bread, olives), and a special mention from my daughter for the fresh orange juice. 😊 Very tempted by dessert options but wouldn't have been able to manage it. My daughter enjoyed her chocolate ice cream (no sharing!) 😲 If I am in the area again I would definitely return to eat here. £Good value£ too.

Fab little Italian place for eats and drinks 🍸 😋

Best restaurant in Sheffield by far, my evening consisted of... antipasto fritto misto, prima pasta Scoglio, secondo chicken and a bottle of Amerai , then an Amari to finish Perfetto

Nice atmosphere and friendly manager, but service was really slow and the food wasn’t great

Food absolutely lovely, so flavoursome. Service was exceptional. A really good experience, very highly recommended.

Mother's Day meal, the food was excellent and the service very friendly great atmosphere.

My favourite place when in Sheffield!❤️❤️❤️

I like Nonna's. Their coffee is excellent and it's a pleasant place to sit and rest. I have eaten here once years ago and it was good. Nice staff and good service

Good place to eat food always good.

Consistent, authentic Italian food. Risotto is very good indeed

Warm welcome, asked for a table for one, a little bit humming and hurring but was told 1½hrs before the table would be used again, no problem i said ! Good choices on the menu ,tad pricey then some Italian restaurants I've been in Quick service and the food was ok ,I'm going to honest I cook Italian myself and mine was better !! I'd try again if I can a table. Would I recommend YES.

Can't complain about a thing after our visit here. The food was wonderful, authentic and flavourful. The staff were extremely friendly and the wait for food wasn't long at all. We will happily go back at some point.

A really nice breakfast, lovely coffee and friendly service.

Always amazing coffee here!!! Super friendly service too and such a lovely atmosphere as always.

I love this place. Fantastic food and drink every time we've been. Great consistency.
