The atmosphere is very nice, tucked away in old town, and the staff was great! The food was not good and the drinks were horrible.

Locals recommended this restaurant and when I checked online it was one of few in the area with solid 5 star customer ratings. Well, I couldn't agree more. What a great restaurant. Food was phenomenal and the crafted cocktail was so delicious. The food is fresh, elevated but the nice, clean atmosphere is beautiful, yet laid back and not pretentious. The bonus is that it is a woman-owned and minority-owned business. Owner was working while I was there and it was great to hear her story and vision. Can't wait to return.

Cozy restaurant. Quality food at a reasonable price. It's a pre-fixed menu with options for appetizers, main entree and dessert. Service was attentive and friendly. My only complaint would be that I could have eaten more. I wish the portion size of the main entree was bigger. I would recommend this restaurant

Great little eatery tucked away in Old Town. The chowder is flavorful. The salmon was amazing and desert is in its way. Definitely be back

The food was top notch and for what you get it was reasonably price ($56 for three courses prix fix). In fact it was so good that we had dinner there two nights in a row. The first night I started with the beef carpaccio. Excellent; among the best I have ever had. The main was pasta. Second night I started with octopus. Again, among the best I have had. Next was steak. It was nice but didn't compare with the other dishes I had Dessert both nights was a delicious vanilla cream. We would have eaten there three nights in a row--but we had to fly home. Highly recommended.

Why aren't you eating here?!?! Visiting Old Town Scottsdale for a couple days and found this lovely spot. Reasonable priced Prix Fixe menu with wonderful choices. Food and service were excellent. And we enjoyed the cocktails and a fabulous bottle of red wine. Why isn't this place packed? Come on Scottsdale you've got a gem here!!!

This place was wonderful. My sister and I were visiting Scottsdale and went here for a weeknight dinner with some friends. We ordered a couple of bottles of wine to enjoy over the course of our meal. Then we chose one item from each section of the menu and the price is fixed. In the neighborhood of $50-$60 per person not including wine. All the pasta is handmade. The service is incredible. Valentina took amazing care of us and was so caring and conversational. Also she was very careful to make sure what I ordered didn't violate my food allergy. I got the carpaccio, salmon pasta (pasta was perfectly Al dente and balanced perfectly with other ingredients), and pistachio ice cream for dessert. The temperature, textures, flavors and atmosphere was absolutely delightful. The dining room is small and very comfortable. Will definitely be back next time I'm in Scottsdale. Totally a memorable and very personal meal. Thank you Nonna's!

We recently spent a weekend in Scottsdale and found Nonna Urban Eatery when looking for a nice place for dinner and made a reservation for Saturday night. The restaurant is a small but nicely laid out space that's tucked off Main Street in a little corridor of shops. The fixed price menu had some excellent selections and everything we ate was delicious. I had the tagliatelle bolognese and my wife had the flank steak for entree and they were awesome. Nonna has reasonably priced bottles wine and the desert was rich and decadent. Definitely recommend this place for a nice evening out in old town Scottsdale!

Positive: The owner was very nice, place was clean. Negative: should have went with my fist instincts and left. we arrived at 6:45 and the place was practically empty. Food was TERRIBLE. Bland, weird, nothing went well together. To put it frankly food was gross. $56.00 for a three course meal. We kept sending stuff back. It was Inedible. Don't waste your money.
A small place with a small menu and good drinks. You have to pay the full $56/person for a starter an entree, and a dessert, there appeared to be no other way to order food. Despite the menu size, we really couldn't decide between every option, everything looked delicious. The location, atmosphere, and service were all wonderful. It did take us around 25 minutes between each serving though and we felt the kitchen was pretty slow once other guests arrived. Still though, check this place out, if you've got the time to relax and chat, you'll be very pleased.

We booked with them through chase dinning and we had a good time overall. Three course meal and diverse menu to choose from

Nonna is a small restaurant that is slightly inset from the street and has a warm, cozy atmosphere. It is often booked for the evening, so making a reservation in advance is advised! As it is typically busy, it can take a bit of time for food to come to your table but the servers are very attentive and pleasant. In terms of the food, each dish seemed creatively made without being overdone. The flavors complemented each other well and portions were satisfying. Overall, a great spot to share an intimate meal with friends, family or a significant other.

This is a cute little eatery in the middle of Old Town Scottsdale. We arrived early with a reservation and were seated immediately on their small patio. Every course was incredible, loved the food, the ambiance (even though surrounded by shops) and the service. The food was fresh and cooked to perfection. Highly recommend this special small restaurant for an evening in Scottsdale.

Every dish at Nonna is so carefully crafted- the prix fixe style menu gives you an opportunity to try a bit of everything. Reviewing after several visits where we were incredibly spoiled here by the service. My family is obsessed with the Bolognese, the Salmon pasta, any crudo Gianfranco makes... and oh! When roast chicken is on the menu!!! This is a true labor of love by the chef and manager husband and wife team. The menu tells a story of an international couple who have culinary influences ranging from Italy to Mexico and South America to Japan. Do yourselves a favor- dine here.
