We're tourists here and decided to pass by to find something to eat. We were recommended the Signature Carbonara and it might just be the best pasta I've had. Highly recommend this place. Everyone here is welcoming and would definitely come back. read more

The food was as if you were in Italy is was delicate the presentation beautiful. The service was excellent and cheery. The ambiance was again like you were in Italy. I love this small authentic taste of Italy restaurant read more

Ambiance is fancy. Food delicious but a little expensive. Staff was nice but is always very crowded.

Reservation for four at 7:45 pm, we arrived on time and three different employees came up and looked at our name on the iPad before someone actually sat us. We got water and some warm bread which was nice, unfortunately I was not able to see or enjoy the food we ordered because we sat for 45 minutes without being checked on past our order being taken. I noticed nearby tables that had come in after us, at least two, ate and left before we even got our food. We informed the waitress that since it had almost been an hour, we would not be staying for our meal. She did offer to comp our meal and have it to-go, but at that point we were tired and very hungry. We left. Will not be returning. We were the only table with a non-white ethnic background, which is something my group commented on upon leaving- something to consider if you plan to visit. Disappointed and hungry. read more

Our food was good and our server (Kara?) was attentive and friendly. On our way to the restaurant I was reading the yelp reviews to decide what to get and was kinda appalled at the owners response to some negative reviews. We almost turned around but we had a gift card we didn't want to waste. Luckily our experience was good but I don't think we'll be back just from how negative the responses were to people. read more

One of my favorite Italian places and I'm a SNOB about Italian food. It's a must stop every time I'm in the area. The food is phenomenal, the staff is friendly. It feels so personable and homey. We got the mozzarella sticks, the lasagna, and the carbonara. AMAZING! read more

First time here. A very laid back quiet place. Greeted by staff and seated promptly. Menu was well rounded in Italian entrees. Having dinner with a small party of 4. Fresh made bread with oil and balsamic vinegar was served as we looked at the menu. We ordered are meals and with a short time of conversation they delivered our them to our table. Two of us had the Pasta Carbonara. This was a great presentation in that they had a huge wheel of Parmigiana Reggiano. They flamed the cheese wheel and let the flames melt the cheese. Then the pasta was placed into the carved out wheel to coat the pasta with a cheese sauce. Not only was this pleasing to watch, but it was so flavorful! This is a house specialty. We had it with grilled chicken breast. You can have it with shrimp or Beef also.Very good and would recommend to all. Another dish was the Salmon served in a red sauce. My wife had this and it was perfectly cooked and a stunning display on the plate. My Brother in law had the lasagna. This was huge!!! About 7" square and 3" thick. He devoured it over the course of the meal. Wow when we had finished we were very happy and very very full. Service was top notch. When having a dinner you look for a place that takes care of you from start to finish. They did this and left us wanting to come back to try more of their delights. read more

Pretty good. Very friendly owner who made sure I was happy. A solid Italian addition to St. George!!

Pasta, at its best, is simple. Alchemy of noodles and a handful of ingredients working together to make a delicious plate of food. Sometimes those recipes can be rigid - see the hard-and-fast rules for the Roman Pastas - but it's for good reason. They're traditional because they're stellar. So I had high hopes for Nonna Ina, a trattoria with an Italian vibe, that maybe St. George has advanced beyond the Olive Garden stage. Alas. I'll start with some good stuff, because the meal was a C-, not an F. The Arancini were good, as was the Caesar salad. And in fairness, I did not try any of their meats, so your mileage of the secondis may vary. But the pastas. Oh, the pastas. The amatriciana doused in sugar, diabetic sweet, with none of the bite of onion or pecorino you expect from that mother sauce. And the signature carbonara. I was willing to forgive the use of bacon vs. guanciale or even pancetta. It's St. George, after all. And I could even kind of overlook the Parmesan instead of pecorino, although I don't know why one would do this. But why cream? There's no way this was not a carbonara with cream. The tasteless noodles were swimming in sauce, with nothing pleasant to recommend them. The signature show is an Instagram moment? But the meal is something your mouth should forget. Yes. It's St. George. But that's all the more reasons why these two dishes should be better - because they're simple, with basic ingredients. Nonna wouldn't be proud. read more

We love Nonna Inas. Its location is a bit out of the way but totally worth it. We love the caprese and carbonara but we have enjoyed everything we have ordered. It's so delicious. read more

I just had another experience with this establishment. I left an honest review and I will insert the picture of what they decided to send me. I feel like instead of insulting people on where they're from. Maybe they should work on customer service and bettering their restaurant and recipes. Maybe they need to ask their customers on their experience on how to improve. Seems like they're set in their ways. And just FYI I'm not from California anymore. I've been traveling on the road for the last seven years. My full-time job is to review and test food, products, and businesses. I have traveled all the way from California to Maine. I've been to New York, Texas, Florida, basically all the states in between every state on the west coast Texas, Arizona, pretty much almost every single state except for a few of the middle ones. So I would say I've had a lot of dining experience. From mom and Pop shops to fine dining and cuisine. Not just California. So I hate to break it to you. It's not because I haven't been to other restaurants. It's because yours just didn't live up to par. And I had an experience at a restaurant in California, and they actually reached out to me and wanted to make things right. So it sounds to me that the people from California have better hospitality, customer service, and restaurant skills than you do. Good luck out there. Hopefully you can learn from this experience instead of sitting on a high horse, thinking that your restaurant is superior and is exempt from having people make honest reviews. I would personally never judge anyone off of where they live. Just because you didn't like what they had to say about your restaurant. That says a lot more about you than it does about me. read more

Nonna Ina - Super unprofessional for me, leaving an honest review. - Italian Near Me - St. George, Utah

Overpriced, over fussed food. J the Park City folks were in and the owner flitted around them chatting so loudly that they ruled the dining room. Ironically, one of them did not their meal so owner immeadiatly read more

I'd heard so many good things about Nonna Ina that when an associate was here for meetings I thought it would be a great place to check out. Except, even though I don't drink, this person said they would like a place where they could have a glass of wine. (Heads up! Liquor license is coming, they hope by the end of November) But the food was so delicious neither of us cared about the wine. The service was impeccable. And the menu selection was good. My friend went for the filet with caramelized onions, I ordered the Pollo Emilia Romagna. A basket of ciabatta served with a delicious vinegar and olive oil started the meal off, then Caprese and Caesar Salad. We will go back again and again, no doubt. read more

First off, the food was absolutely amazing. By far the best pasta I've ever had and the Italian soda was up there too. The main reason for a 3 star (borderline 2 star) rating is when my wife and I dined there there was, (VIP's?), other diners that got absolutely the 5 star treatment and my wife and I were pretty much ignored, handed our food then forgotten about again. Absolutely no communication with staff. We were asked how things were from a distance and in between moments of conversation breaks with these VIPs. When you're spending $75+ for two people for a dinner, I don't care what your status is, you deserve the same customer service as Mr / Mrs VIP. To clarify, I'm not looking for a sit down conversation with the staff, but a little friendliness and perhaps some genuine interest in feedback from us non-VIPs would have been more than appreciated. read more

Everything. This is a little gem tucked away in a food desert. I normally drive to Las Vegas for Italian. Not anymore.

Definitely not worth the TikTok hype. We had the tableside pasta, it looks a lot cooler online than it tasted. The place is an old cafeteria-style restaurant that definitely needs to be updated. I ordered the lasagna, and it came out cold with a slice of deli ham in it. I also ordered the meatballs as an appetizer, but they tasted exactly like meatballs out of a bag. I used to work in an Italian restaurant, and when you order a side of meatballs, they come out piping hot, a nice size, and smothered in sauce. These were literally grocery store meatballs, and they tasted like barbecue sauce. Great presentation though, they piled a couple of breadsticks on them Lol. I would love to see Gordon Ramsay walk into this restaurant. It would be one of those episodes where you feel sorry for the owner. I normally don't go this hard on reviews, but unfortunately, after the terrible service and the meal coming out cold, you would think that they would try to make it right. If you're in St. George and you're looking for decent Italian food, stick to Olive Garden. At least you know what you're getting and the quality is better. I'll be sure to stop bye and request the owner reservations for Ken. Hope you keep the same energy buddy..... read more

This place is so yummy a must try if you haven't been. We got the gnocchi and signature carbonara these did not disappoint. They both were amazing, the owner was so nice and checked on us often. We also had peach Italian soda that tasted great. read more

HORRIBLE, worst food ever and service. We went there for my husbands birthday and it was a week day so not busy. We arrived at 6:30 pm only one other table of 4 was there. Took for ever for us to get service and food also. Food was out of a can and horrible we left with only taking one bite of food. The server as we were leaving ask if we wanted a to go box and we said NO. Sad great location I hope someday a good restaurant goes in there. read more

i went back in oct 2022 and it was so good! But i think management changed bc I went again last night and it was really disappointing. Mine and my moms food was riddled with whole fruits as garnishments & who puts peanuts on lobster ravioli?? My dad is an immigrant from Italy and really liked the food when we went in oct '22 but im just really glad he wasnt with me this time bc he would have hated it! also i want to be supportive of a family run business but a really shy 7 y/o should not be the restaurant hostess I feel bad for the little girl that her parents put her up there, when she's obviously uncomfy. Plus im pretty sure i got food posioning. I was absolutely disgusted that the bill was 200+ with tips when there was no proper hostess and that the food was below mediocre AND my mom got a dirty and sticky steak knife! I saw the owner responded to somebody elses comment and said "if you wanted americanized italian food you should go to olive garden" but honey, olive garden would have been better! sorry, but personally i wouldnt waste my money if i were you. edit; to owner - if you had reading comprehension you would understand that i went in 10/2022 but also in 08/2023. Your 9 year old had to run to the back of the restaurant and ask for the serve to come help her. I never said she wasnt cute, just that having a 9 year old work is really weird ?? Those were 100% peanuts my dude. And you said nothing about garnishing italian food with berries??? and we can afford fine dining, this just wasnt fine dining. Maybe if you werent snarky towards negative reviews you could change peoples perceptions like a decent business owner. Your foods disgusting. have a nice day. read more

Nonna Ina - like berries and peanuts to top LOBSTER RAVIOLIS?? yall i am ALL for adventurous foods but that was just gross. - Italian Near Me - St. George, Utah

My husband and I LOVED the lasagna and meatballs! The serving sizes are large! There was so much food to eat that we took some home. It was just as yummy as the night before. The servers were knowledgeable of the menu and answered our questions. It's a beautiful, nice restaurant. I highly recommend you try it out if you have not. We look forward to returning. read more

First time eating here and i loved it. I am italian and have a restaurant in Vegas and i can tell you that i was very impressed. Italian Family restaurant in St George , i was very surprised. We will come back again when we will pass by here. Thanks again for the hospitality Ciao read more

Can't take feedback and instead resorts to assumptions and put downs. I am not from California. I would recommend to you to take the feedback your given and I would recommend to other customers not to waste your time here. This business didn't have a good vibe and after seeing how the owner responds to a negative review is only proof as to why. I am tempted to think perhaps any of the "good" reviews are false. Unless all those other people were eating at a different restaurant altogether. Just because someone's doesn't like your weird menu and crummy food you shouldn't resort to put downs. Pretty awful business strategy if you ask me. read more

I've now been to dinner here twice. The place has a nice atmosphere. They have outdoor seating that I have yet to try. I've made reservations on both occasions and the place was always full. The staff were friendly, courteous and knowledgeable. They add charm to this Italian restaurant. The food is very well prepared and delicious to boot. Their specialty is the carbonara you won't be disappointed, it rich creamy and delicious. It's prepared table side. Deserts are good as well and they have a nice array of different items. I will definitely be back. read more

We decided to try this place based on the high ratings. The food was good, and the service was friendly and efficient. However, the cleanliness left much to be desired. The baseboards were noticeably dirty, and the floor looked neglected--whether from stains or poor maintenance, it was hard to tell. The front door was worn and desperately needed a fresh coat of paint, as did the rest of the interior. It's clear they're trying to save on upkeep, but in reality, it's costing them business because we won't be returning. read more

Went there for the first time. Was craving Americanized Italian food. If that is what you want i would not recommend it. i am guessing the dishes are perhaps more authentic Italian. My issue is not with the food itself. i didn't see anything on the menu like what i had been craving. So we asked the waitress if they had anything like spaghetti with Tomato marinara sauce. She said yes they could make that. I repeated, just tomato marinara. The sauce was very peppery, very spicy and not typical marinara. Again, might be great for some people but nothing like i requested and was prepared to be perfectly fine just having our drinks and going somewhere else if it was not their wheelhouse. i couldn't eat it and then waitress noticed she said she should have been more descriptive of the sauce. That she used to do that but people seemed to be familiar so she stopped. They came over and said they would discount the dish since neither i or my husband could eat it. So instead of $23 they charged $20 (gee thanks?). To top it off the door handle was so hot it literally burned my finger. Blister and all. When we walked in they even said something like oh did the door handle burn you? They said they don't know what to do about it. But living in this area we know that can be issue, but plenty of storefronts that have door handles in the sun seemed to have solved it. So i am basing the review on their not being upfront with me about the sauce (listen, I was very frank about just wanting plain ole Americanized tomato sauce), not making it right and that blasted door knob. read more

Good but not great!! Pasta not made in house! I always ask; with their prices the pasta should be home made!!! read more

We saw this place had very good reviews so we decided to try it. I am not a fan of chain Italian restaurants but like a nice one. This is a nice one. The food was fantastic. My wife and I shared two dishes; the gnocchi quattro formaggi and the lasagna. Wow! The layers on the lasagna were delicate and flavorful. The gnocchi was absolutely the best I had ever had, and I have made it from scratch myself. The service was very good. I found the setting to be comfortable and appealing. read more

This is probably my favorite authentic Italian restaurant in town. It used to be Chef Alfredo's, but had a very terrible experience there recently. I liked the carbonara, but the server was a little heavy with the lighter fluid (or whatever is used to start the fire in the Parmesan cheese wheel). I'm a HUGE carbonara fan and ate my body weight in Italy over a week. My wife didn't love her lasagna and she isn't to interested in returning, but I enjoyed my meal. I don't know if I would order the same thing again, but it's a worthwhile stop. read more

Service was amazing! Such nice people. Really great flavors over all. The calamari and shrimp appetizer was phenomenal. Their pesto was some of the best pesto I've had in a while. Their carbonara was really good and creamy as advertised. And their portion sizes were good the prices were just a little high for a lack of ambiance. The bread and oil. Cheap tasting bread and their oil and vinegar were already combined which made it hard to distribute on individual plates. They should just give bottles of oil and vinegar to serve yourself and invest in quality fresh baked bread for the prices they charge. The tour of italy charcuterie is not worth it. Its way too much meat and not enough cheese and other charcuterie pairings but i will say the sun dried tomatoes were to die for. Maybe that is the Italian way but their mozzarella cheese was awful and that is not the Italian way. The presentation was outstanding on all the dishes and the flavors were there. So if you don't mind the simple ambiance then the food alone will be worth it. read more

Nonna Ina - The tour of Italy charcuterie - Italian Near Me - St. George, Utah

A fresh take on true Italian. Superb! The house is known for the Carbonara. Preparing the noodles in a flaming wheel of parmesan cheese adds a unique taste and memorable experience. But, I'm such a classic carbonara guy that I actually preferred my brother-in-laws lasagna. Maybe best ever. The ham strip in it works! Also, my wife's gnocchi with a side of sweeter pink sauce was divine. read more

I went here on Valentine's Day with my girlfriend and it was a mediocre overall experience. The decorations in the place are nice. Not spacious and gets stuffy quickly if it's packed with people. The food was good but definitely not worth the price you have to pay for it. Our waitress came to our table only twice the whole time we were there. Luckily the night was saved by the little boy who played the guitar for entertainment, and the rose they gave my girlfriend. read more

This place is awesome, we arrived early for our reservation but they sat us anyway. We ordered the Carbonara and Lobster Raviolis they were delicious and they were authentic tasting they cook the Carbonara in a wheel of Parmesan at your table side with some fire. We also got the Tiramisu and Cheesecake for desert. I would recommend trying this place you won't be disappointed. Buon Appettito. read more

This place seems like it might be a nice experience. They were unprofessional when i went unfortunately. I ordered the carbonara and they brought a pan of the pasta out to the cheese station waiting for the one server to come do the cheese melting. After a while, the busser finally decided to try mixing it in the cheese and said sorry she's never done this before. She was really slow about the process and insecure in what she was doing. That's fine to learn a new skill, but our food was cold by the time it was served. It would be better not to be practicing on a full price paying customer. It wasn't a good value for the price and the experience. read more

We noticed a new spot came into town and had to try it out! SO GOOD!! Everything looked good on the menu but we decided on the Carbonara and Chicken Basciaola. Amazing! The pasta was very rich and decadent so the lighter chicken dish was perfect. The staff was super friendly and attentive. It seemed most of the staff spoke Italian because our server had to translate a couple times. It reminded us of our travels to Italy We already know what we want to try next time, bistecca florentine and lasagne! Please visit this new, family owned business. You won't be disappointed read more

Another 5 Star evening at Nonna Ina! We got seated right away, we ordered the Calamari plate and it was awesome! After enjoying our appetizer we enjoyed the Pollo Boscaiola (Woodland Chicken) and the Lasagna. Kara was such a great server and made the evening feel very special! Thanks again to all the staff and chef. Oh, I almost forgot, we got two orders of Cannoli to go YUMMMM read more

his had to have been one of the best Italian food meals I've ever had. The owner was our waitress and was amazing. We started with the burrata which I'm still drooling over. We also got the carbonara, spaghetti and lobster ravioli. We finished with the cannoli and could barely walk out we were so stuffed. We will definitely be coming back!! read more

Wonderful Italian food great service lunch is a little pricey service was great owners on site. Dinner would be my preference of time

Staff: Good, they are trying very hard to please patrons. However, they seemed a little overwhelmed (and maybe short staffed) during the busiest hour, about 7PM. Ambience: Very noisy during evening dining hours. It's not likely that anything could be done to improve the noise level given the hard tile floors and and other hard surfaces. A roll around serving cart sounded like a garbage truck when pushed across the floor. On a 10 point scale (10 being noisiest), I would give it an 8 or 9. Menu items: A quite large list of choices, very ambitious menu. Food: Presentations were attractive. Caesar salads were OK but a little shy of Parmesan cheese and anchovies. Table bread was no better than grocery variety. We doubt they bake on site. We were 4 diners and our main courses included fish, pastas, lasagna, ravioli and risotto. We all arrived at this conclusion: While the dishes were OK, they lacked the depth and complexity of flavors we associate with Italian fine dining. Perhaps they could use more herbs, spices and seasonings. The word we all used to describe our individual dishes was "bland." Given all this, I rate them 3 stars and we hope that they can improve upon flavors in the future. We surely want this restaurant to succeed! read more

Great food. Typical yummy Greek food. Higher prices than the other local Greek restaurant, but worth a try...

We had reservations for dinner on New Year's Eve. Called just to reconfirm, as no one had gotten back to us. The chef was gone for en emergency, and no one was going to call us back. The restaurant was closed, and it certainly was too late to make a reservation at this point. This is so poor!!!! We were really looking forward to our evening there. We will not be going to Nonna Ina!!!!! I feel bad about people who were going there, were all dressed up, and then got there to find it closed. BAD, BAD, BAD!!!!!! read more
