dining

Nonna of Italy is practical enough to dine at any day, and extraordinary enough to be a major, big event Italian restaurant on the Southern California culinary landscape. Like most haute cuisine in the Tuscan tradition, the superiority of ingredients and the sure-handed simplicity of the preparation combine to create an exquisite balance of quality and taste. Carciofini, a salad of thinly sliced small artichokes, red onion and parsley with a lemon vinaigrette; Soglia Fresca, a fresh fillet of imported dover sole lightly sautéed with clarified butter; Costolette d’Agnello Scottadito, or rack of lamb; and Panna Cotta offer a sampling of the fresh dishes offered at Nonna of Italy.
