A cozy place to dine at any time. The food is beyond delicious. The presentation is beautifully simple and thoughtful. The staff is so kind and attentive. Not a place to be missed. One thing I want to note is they offered bread while we waited for our food, a piece for each of us at the table came lovingly wrapped in parchment in a basket. It wasn't warm but regardless was delicious. We requested olive oil and balsamic to dip ours in. Let's just say that I ate here 2 years ago and couldn't wait to visit again when I returned. read more

I was thoroughly impressed with Go Nonna! The inside felt small but they have plenty of outdoor seating with great people watching seating. The food was delicious and the service was fast. We tried the octopus which had too much paprika if you ask me but it was good. The salad with goat cheese and apples was divine! I had the carbonara which was excellent and creamy. My boyfriend had the sea bass and loved it! read more

Such a cute little restaurant offering delicious food and cozy vibes! The space is on the smaller side with not as much seating, so there may be a wait if you are trying to walk in without a reservation. However we came here on a Friday night and only had to wait 20 min (though likely because of the cold weather). The menu offers many classic pasta dishes as well as dishes that fuse Italian/Argentine elements (i.e. the chicken milanesas). Everything we ordered was delicious, and the pasta was freshly homemade. read more

This restaurant is fantastic. The restaurant has about 10 tables. The service was excellent. The food was amazing. The pasta was fresh. Small restaurant with a decent menu and wine list. There were six of us and shared the rack of lamb and the hanger steak. Both were tender and flavorful. We ordered two appetizers. Meatballs and fried assortment of seafood. We each ordered our own pasta dish. From spaghetti and meatballs to pappardelle with veal ragu. This place is truly the definition of a hidden gem. read more

Great little Italian place Good food ! Authentic Italian and friendly staff . Will go again

First, one of the best lasagnes I have ever had. Fabulous. So creamy. Their tuna tar tar appetizer was also phenomenal. The reason I knocked off a star was because of their other dishes I tried and my party's reaction to them. The gnocchi's consistency wasn't to my liking and the lemon pasta dish was lacking a little flavor. I did like their bolognese sauce. All in all, you gotta try their lasagne. read more

Delicious!! Highly recommended. Great, friendly service and amazing food! I had the pesto ravioli and it was incredible! read more

Small restaurant with good amount of outside seating. Got there at 6p and only 3 tables were occupied. Since we didn't have a reservation, the host had to work at deciding to give us a seat of 3 in a mostly empty restaurant at the moment. Turns out that the tables were all accounted for so we appreciate getting seated. Service was prompt since the restaurant wasn't full at the time. We ordered 2 appetizers to share: grilled octopus which was delicious and cooked perfectly and a chef super salad. Our main dishes were the Orrechietta with broccoli rabe and sausage (nice and tasty), penne alla vodka with added grilled shrimp (tasty and flavorful), and lasagna ( good and filling). Dessert shared were the almond chocolate cake and almond ice cream. Yummy! Found this restaurant on the foodie list in Yelp. Glad I did and satisfied with the decision. Recommend coming here but you should make a reservation! read more

I ate here on a Friday night as a party of 4 to celebrate a friend's birthday. The place is cozy and intimate with a great selection food and drinks. We really enjoyed our meals which took a little long to come out but everything tasted made to order so it was worth it. We had the steak dish, the shrimp and zucchini pasta, penne vodka and the paprpadelle. I asked for bread and it was not very soft and the shrimp dish could used a bit more flavor or salt other than that, I do highly recommend the restaurant. Oh yea the 90's music playlist was excellent and added to the experience. read more

Overall a great local spot serving up some Italian and Argentinian dishes. The carbonara was good, but the Parmesan was a bit too strong for my taste. The pasta was cooked well The chicken was also good, but nothing special.. the fries were good but thin. The service was very friendly though and it's a very cute spot. If I came back I'd want to try the chicken parmigiana and other pasta dishes! read more

Fantastic lunch in Long Island City at Go Nonna. Parking is basically non existent during the workweek. The restaurant is cute, with about a Dozen tables. Liquor license with Wine Beer and cocktails. No bar to sit. Outdoor seating when the weather is nice. Service was great. The Fritto Misto was a wonderful fried combination of Shrimp, Calamari, and Zucchini. Tagliatelle Bolognese was a mixed bag, homemade pasta cooked perfectly, the sauce on the other hand appeared to be just meat sauce. It was good but certainly not a true Bolognese. The meatballs were the star of the show for me, really well done. Little disappointed that bread service was not provided for a scarpetta. The Pesto Ravioli looked wonderful as did the Homemade pasta with meatballs. Espresso was executed nicely. I will be back for more. read more

Go Nonna's is a cute Italian-Argentinian restaurant in LIC. We asked our waiter for their most popular pasta dishes and decided on PAPPARDELLE AL RAGU DI CARNE and ORECCHIETTE WITH BROCCOLI DI RAPA E SALSICCE. The rage pasta was heavier and filling, while the orecchiette was more refreshing and light tasting. Both pastas were delicious, and I loved having two different sauces. My friends and I shared 2 pastas and a side of broccolini. We left feeling satisfied but not full, and should have ordered a protein to go with our meal. I am looking forward to trying more of the dishes in the future! read more

I just had dinner here, the other night with a new local fried (who had never been!) again, after a very long period of time. The food is excellent, the wine selection is terrific and paired well to the cuisine, and the service was swift and respectable, and not overbearing. The online availability did not quite match reality, but it filled up pretty quickly. Once we sat down. I chose the chicken Parm, but asked it to be grilled rather than breaded/fried, and it was delicious. I now look forward to the summer with their outside dining option. read more

Went here after work during the week. The place was pretty empty. Good for us since the spot is super small. Definitely need reservations on weekends. I had a pasta dish and cocktail. Prices are typical for LIC. My drink was really good and my pasta was filling. The pappardelle with ragu was good. The service was fine. The lady was nice. We didn't get much attention. Like I said it was pretty empty so give them a try during the week. If you're in the area definitely try them. read more

Pasta was bland and not worth the price at all. I did pick one of the less flavorful options on the menu, but the pasta just wasn't that good on a baseline level. read more

The service and food were both amazing, staff was friendly and my pappardelle and partners' fettuccine were spot on, not to mention the shoestring fries we had as an appetizer. Only note was that the table was sticky, not in a dirty way, but because the finish was tacky. read more

I went to this cosy restaurant in LIC on a Wednesday for lunch and it was pretty empty which was nice. You could hear the pounding of the chef making fresh dough in the kitchen. The service was extremely attentive (as we were the only ones there). I wanted to really like this place but the food was only average. Overall, if you like Italian/Argentina pastas, I would recommend to try this restaurant out since on average you would probably enjoy this place as the pasta itself is really fresh. They just need to tweak the flavors and cook slightly. - Octopus was a bit under seasoned and slightly overcooked making it a bit tough. - Short rib papardelle had great pasta and the sauce was delicious, however I don't the short rib to have been overcooked and dry. - Orecchiette with broccoli rabe was the most disappointing - flavors lacking and it was boring overall. - Tiramisu was pretty good read more

This place was fabulous. My friend whose mother is Italian and cooks like an Italian came with me and he very much approved. They squeezed us in because we didn't have a reservation and the food was amazing, It's a small space, so best to make a reservation. Legit Italian food with a nice space and price was reasonable coming from Manhattan. Well worth the walk to get there in the rain and would do it again. read more

This little gem is nestled in between some breweries in Long Island city and had good reviews. It was a busy place, but they were able to seat us outside. I got the cacio e pepe.

I came upon this restaurant by driving off the Pulaski bridge during my move from BK to Queens. Their outdoor seating, their name, idea of Italian & Argentinian food combined intrigued me. I went in on a late summer night last year and have ordered takeout from them as well. It's a small restaurant away from the main street and the food is delicious. My favorite is the Pappardelle al Ragu di Carne and the Tagliatelle alla Bolognese. Service is pretty quick and everyone I've encountered so far has been pleasant. If I lived closer, I'd visit more frequently! read more

Super sad I can't give this place higher stars because I really wanted to like it. I went on a Wednesday afternoon and no one else was there. This is a cute little spot with character. The pasta looked delicious and I have no complaints, nothing too special about it. My issue is with the broccoli. It was so sour, and not from the garlic or oil it was cooked in. Broccoli, like most vegetables, usually begins to taste sour when it has been in the sun too long and when it begins to bolt/premature. As it is summer, I'm sure the produce is spoiling quicker than usual. Serving sour broccoli can lead to food borne illness. This dish was very inedible. The waitress tried to tell me it was suppose to be sour like that, but I just don't believe the vegetable was purposely cooked to taste spoiled. read more

I am not a big fan of pasta but the food here was amazing! We were actually on our way to another restaurant but this one looked so good that we decided to stop in anyway. I had the truffle fettuccine which was an option on the specials menu with a large aperol spritz. The pasta was great and they make it in house so it really had an amazing texture, the truffle flavor was a bit more subtle than I expected but present enough to enjoy. Customer service was great and pretty speedy! It could be that we went during the late lunch hour but it was pretty quiet. If you're looking for an energetic ambience, that might be something to keep in mind. If you're looking for a quite intimate dining experience, this is definitely the place for you. We were too full to try the desserts and honestly the pasta portion size was so generous that we didn't get any sides or accompaniments. I look forward to the opportunity to come back and sample more menu items! read more

I came for a dinner with my family. While the spot is fairly small, the staff were able to seat our party fairly efficiently. I got the meatballs appetizer as an entree (and basically stole parts of my husbands penne alla vodka sauce haha). All in all, the meatballs were really good, and the accompanying red sauce was tangy and delicious. My husband and I also enjoyed the penne alla vodka, especially the vodka sauce. I also got a chance to try other entrees, such as the skirt steak and the carbonara. The steak was cooked perfectly, and the carbonara was creamy although a bit on the bland side for my taste. We had a wonderful time and definitely enjoyed the selection of alcoholic beverages available. Will definitely recommend for folks looking for an interesting take on Italian (and a little bit of Argentinian) cuisine! read more

Small limited menu but the caccio de Pepe is excellent. My daughter was disappointed that bread wasn't provided but she loved the calamari.

Popped in here for dinner with a few friends. Absolutely excellent and unpretentious. Great freshly made dishes in pretty generous portions, you can't go wrong. My chicken piccata was seriously delicious. This is often one of my go-to dinners to cook, so I loved to get one that makes me wish I made it too. So very good. Everyone loved their homemade pastas and our service was lovely. Definitely a spot worth revisiting. read more

This little cute Italian restaurant in LIC was a nice spot for a Friday summer night's casual dinner. We sat outside and it was so nice with the weather being perfect and the vibe being great. Server was very nice and seemed very genuine. The food was yummy. It felt like home cooked and hand made pasta. Flavors were better than I expected; I really enjoyed the fragrant lemon taste in the lemon shrimp pasta (probably another name). Would definitely recommend this restaurant! read more

When it's cold and the weather is awful out, sometimes we lean on takeout or delivery to get us through. I'm a sucker for good pasta/Italian and Go Nonna came up as a viable takeout option in Queens. This has quickly become one of my go-tos for Italian takeout and I've ordered from them numerous times even though I haven't gone to the actual location. Factoring in some leniency for fried items when it's delivered, I still order them anyway and bet they're even better at the restaurant. So, what are some of the things I've ordered? I've ordered the following items so far: Tagliatelle Alla Bolognese, Bavette Al Limone con Gamberi e Zucchine, Lasagne Marchigiane, Zucchine Fritte (side), Spinaci Al Salto (side), and Polpette (one of their meatballs, listed as a side online). The first two pastas are my favorites and I'll alternate between them depending on whether I'm craving a meatier sauce or if I want some lighter flavors like the lemon and zucchini with shrimp! The lasagna was good as well though it's on the cheesier side (being semi lactose intolerant it's a touch too much but delicious). The fried zucchini is a routine favorite though I'd say skip the spinach (it was tasty but not worth the price since you can easily make this at home). Will only post pictures from my most recent order. They've also been a great carbo loading option in preparation for running! This has been a solid spot with consistently good food so I'll definitely continue ordering from them and hopefully get to try them out in the restaurant at some point! read more

Came here based off of the reviews. The food and service was alright. It was on the pricey side for pasta, but what can you expect from LIC. There was Argentinan food too which I would've liked to try. So that was an interesting combination between Italian and Argentinan. The place isn't big so wouldn't suggest it for a group meal. Rather for a small intimate setting. We didn't make reservations, but only two of us were eating. So, not sure if that's necessary too. I think the menu changes frequently. When we went, just got the pasta dishes and the meatball. I also ordered the wine, which from the menu sounds like it would be fruity, but it wasn't. I was a bit disappointed in that. The meatballs were good, but the pasta dishes not so much. Not sure if I would go back again as everything was mediocre. Maybe the other types of entrees would be better. read more

Went here after a show at PS1 - really wanted to like it! The food was mediocre and flavorless. (The arugula salad was swimming in balsamic vinegar, the vegetable cavatelli was boring and had random sized cuts of vegetables and cheese..,it felt like an antipasto) The service was lacking, no one came over at any point to tell me the food would be delayed for a long time and it even took them a while to come and take my order in the first place. No one ever asked me how the food was. Then the cherry ontop was they charged my credit card twice accidentally lol will not be coming back :/ read more

This is a romantic spot for date night! Interesting that it's a combination of Italian and Argentine cuisines. Farther from the main drag of restaurants on Vernon Blvd in Long Island City, but it's perfect with great food and ambiance! Inside, they can fit about 17 seats and when the weather gets nicer, they have additional seating for 13 in the hutch on the street. I called for reservations the same day on a Wednesday and they were not busy at all with a couple and a family of 4 seated when we walked in at 6:30. They seem to do a lot of takeout, with a constant stream of delivery guys picking up orders at the takeout window, but service did not suffer because the server was on top of her game. Takeout is good, but there is no substitute to enjoying your food hot out of the kitchen. From the menu you can see that the meat dishes are Argentinian and the pastas are Italian and they have somehow harmonized these together. We started with the Fritto Misto, a mixed dish of fried shrimp, calamari and zucchini sticks. Perfectly dredged in flour, deep fried and seasoned. And the calamari included the tentacles (my favorite part) with a side of marinara, of course. We both decided to go for pasta. The pastas are all homemade! For her, the Bucatini alla Carbonara had a delicate creamy egg sauce with pancetta and shaved parmesan was perfect. For me, Pappardelle al Ragu di Carne was very hearty beef shortrib chunks in a smooth tomato sauce. The wide pasta noodles were perfectly al dente and that pop/bite that only fresh pasta can give you. Delicious! A side of sauteed spinach rounded out the meal. I really want to come back and explore the Argentine side of the menu! And for dessert, Tiramisu! Smooth, creamy and light with a dusting of espresso/cocoa powder over layers of cream and fluffy lady fingers. 2 spoons and 2 cappuccinos, please! read more

Ordered delivery and had an okay experience. The cacio e pepe didn't really taste like cacio e pepe, and the chicken parmesan was solid but nothing special. Little pricey, too. Other Italian spots in the surrounding areas like Maiella and Il Falco are better, though this is a perfectly fine neighborhood option. 3.5 stars. read more

Solid italian spot - very good selection of pastas and huge portions. Server was also really nice and made good recommendations. I got the cacio e pepe, while my friends got the ragu special.
