    Chicken mushroom, red pepper, and sundried tomato
    Erika P.

    This is a review based on a DD delivery when staying at a nearby hotel and it was winter cold outside. I say all that because this pizza is very thin yeast crust that not many recipes are not the best in this cold climate because it comes hard and chewy. I feel it might have been different if it was fresh from the oven, and will definitely note the ingredients were freshly chopped and flavorful. My husband had the Stromboli, and his only complaint was that this was actually a calzone with sauce on the side. In other places, the Stromboli is on Italian bread more like a sandwich. Eitherway it wasn't bad, and was very filling.

    First time trying Nonna's and we LOVED it. It was a feeling of nostalgia for me and reminded me of a small town pizza place I had growing up. Dave Portnoy loves a nice, New York style slice. I, on the other hand, look for the most loaded pizza possible and this checked every box. Cooked to perfection, tasty and a quick dinner. They have a lot of fun menu items, like the stuffed breadsticks I have pictured. It present beautifully and does not come messed up even with delivery. Kudos to this staff, we love it!

    Lobby area can get congested with line backing up to order at the counter. They need to have table service.

    Our family strongly recommended Nonnas So Italian restaurant for lunch to us, which sits next door to Thorton's gas station off 267 in Plainfield. Parking is convenient with a private parking lot, just steps from the entrance. As you're walking to the entrance, you can't help but notice the large enclosed patio area, which will be great this summer. As you enter the small but lovely lobby area, you turn to your right to place your order at the counter. The menu is located above the counter area, and your order is delivered to your table. We felt rushed placing our order with 8 of us and 3 parties waiting behind us. Several of us had never been here before and required a few additional minutes to check out the menu. Seating is plentiful, and it's seat-yourself with booths and tables in one large area of the restaurant and a smaller seating area close to the self-serve Pepsi drink fountain. Request the carafe of fresh water vs. the soda fountain water, which tastes like the drink (lemonade) next to. This was one of the requests that was brought more than 1/2 way through lunch, and all 8 of us ordered only water to drink. Italian sodas and several coffee drinks are another beverage option. Nonnas menu offers a nice selection of classic Italian appetizers with original and stuffed breadsticks, Bruschetta, calamari, mozzarella sticks, and cassava fritti (a root vegetable similar to a potato). The pizzas looked incredible, and we were told the pizzas are excellent and not to be missed. Their New York inspired, hand tossed pizzas with homemade sauce are available in 14" and 18" with BYO (Build Your Own), Specialty and Vegetarian options. A nice selection of calzones and subs are also available. The Entree size Chef or The Works salad we ordered was a generous serving of fresh, crisp greens, sliced ham, salami, provolone cheese, diced tomatoes, black olives, cucumbers and slices of red onion served with your choice of one of their homemade dressings. The salads were fresh and delicious, but we had problems with every salad arriving with ingredients requested to be left off, and each person informed our server. However, only one was corrected because she was insistent. The server didn't seem to care when we acknowledged something wrong or requested more butter, napkins, or even a missing fork. I ordered the spinach and potato soup. I was excited to try until it arrived and appeared to be split pea, but it wasn't. Instead, it was the consistency of baby food with the flavor of browned flour. It was horrible, and I couldn't eat, and based on the concern shown previously from our server, I just let it sit. She never questioned why I only had a couple of bites and left. Nonnas offers build your own pasta or order one of the specialty pastas such as one of the chicken or shrimp alfredo linguines, Quattro cheese ravioli stuffed with 4 cheeses, meat and alfredo sauce, Pasta Primavera, Chicken Parmesan or Beef Lasagna plus more. Our group ordered the highly recommended Chicken Alfredo Linguine, and the others ordered the BYO pasta. Each said their pasta was correct and good. Each order was served with just one excellent dinner roll, but it was impossible to receive additional butter timely. A basket of rolls would be appreciated or serve with an additional roll with entrees. Even though I wanted to order Tiramisu, we felt it was not in my best interest. We most likely will not rush to return to Nonnas after the service we experience today.

    I have been looking for an Italian restaurant that is not a nationwide chain...And this place is it! I went there for the first time for lunch. They have multiple lunch options like spaghetti with meat sauce, Alfredo, cheese pizza which comes with a salad, a break stick and a drink. Overall value is great, but I wish they had add-on options like chicken, meat balls, sausage, or something. The service was quick and professional and I really liked the vibe there. Casual but has nice decorations and it's perfect for business lunch too. I'll return for dinner next time.

    I came here a few weeks ago with some friends for dinner. They were already there so I found them at the table. We had not been there before so were a little confused on how to order. We stopped someone and they told us we had to order at the front of the restaurant and she likened it to a Culver's or McAlister's... not something you necessarily want to hear at a local place that has higher prices than both of those locations. I went to the front to order and got a drink as well from the fountain and was given a number. They brought my salad first which was good and then my pasta not long after. The pasta was not my favorite but it was alright. My friend ordered the breadsticks and those were really good. Overall I was wanting more from the experience and wish they had it like a traditional restaurant.

    This lasagna taste like it came out of a can horrible. The only reason I gave it two stars is because the lady who took my order was super nice and the bread taste OK I will never eat here again. They call this Italian then im a watermelon

    With the beginning of the Statehouse Market in downtown Indy for 2023, I'm once again discovering…read moresome of the hidden gems and newbies in the realm of food trucks and farmer's market vendors. One such truck is Milkhouse Brew, a Mooresville, Indiana based mobile coffee truck serving locally roasted coffee, specialty beverages, and locally baked confections. Milkhouse Brew is a partnership between cousins Haliena "Hali" Mynatt and Suni Johnsons. Hali also owns Morgan County event venues 5 East and The Barn at Milkhouse Lane. Suni is a longtime photographer in the area. Both women are locals who graduated from Mooresville High School. Milkhouse Brew has a fairly basic menu, or at least did today, including cappuccino, latte, macchiato, americano, chai latte, and hot chocolate with some variations and flavors available. Prices were pretty darn reasonable and all the drinks could be served either hot or cold. They also all came in either 16-ounce and 20-ounce sizes. Prices primarily were in the $3-6 range and for that you get a tasty drink, awesome service, and the thrill of supporting local. I ordered a 20-ounce iced americano. It was served fairly quickly and they seemed to do a steady business today. A food truck offering coffee has been a serious lacking at Statehouse Market and I'm hoping they will return. Coffee is from Timber City Coffee and Tea - an establishment that recently opened up a storefront in Plainfield. Milkhouse also plans to carry Circle Kombucha, though I did not see it available today. They are also exploring options for root beer on tap. I loved my drink, though I did think the ice melted super quickly and that slightly hindered my enjoyment of the drink. I still enjoyed it, however, that does keep me from forking over a 5th star. Who knows? I hope I get to award that in the future as this new kid on the block, women-owned and operated, really gets going. There's much to love here with an appealing truck, friendly service, quality products that are also local, and an overall winning experience. Here's hoping they'll be back at Statehouse Market in the near future. I could not find an actual address, though they are active on social media and do have a website. They seem to be particularly active in the Morgan/Hendricks county area.

    Coffee trucks you can never go wrong with. It was a hot day yesterday and the iced vanilla latte I…read moreordered was refreshing. It came out fast also! I like the menu is simple and to the point. Expressos that can be iced or hot, cappuccino, lattes, Americanos, chai lattes are what they offer. Milks - almond, oat, or whole. Caramel, vanilla, and mocha are the options for flavorings. Whipped cream and extra espresso shots are also available. It's a cute truck. I will be keeping my eye out for them again. They have an Instagram to tell you where they will be next. @milkhousebrew

I've been a loyal customer since the days of the physical member card, and even now that everything is digital, I still enjoy coming here. While I was there, the barista Marcus (I believe that was his name) was friendly and pleasant throughout my visit. I noticed some coupons displayed in the window and asked if I could have the coupon sheet to use on my return trip. This is not uncommon because they give these to customers to use. He was about to give them to me when another barista stopped him and said that the ones he was handing me were their last sheet. I was a bit confused, since the coupons were clearly displayed in the drive-thru window, and I wondered if more could simply be printed. When I asked, I was told they hadn't received additional sheets yet, so they couldn't give out the last ones. Unfortunately, there didn't seem to be any effort to offer an alternative or accommodate the request, which was disappointing. I ended up leaving feeling a bit uncomfortable despite the great service from Marcus. The lady wasn't very kind with her approach but denying me coupons to SUPPORT a local business wasn't on my bingo card for my birthday.

    My visit to The Green Room Cafe was nothing short of a caffeinated revelation…read more From the moment I stepped through the doors, I was enveloped in an atmosphere that felt like a secret garden had collided with an artist's dream -- warm, inviting, and humming with just the right kind of energy. The service was absolutely impeccable: attentive without hovering, warm without pretense, and delivered with the sort of genuine hospitality that makes you feel less like a customer and more like an honored guest at an impossibly chic gathering. And then came the drinks. The pistachio latte was a masterpiece of balance and indulgence -- velvety, nutty, and luxuriously smooth, as though a pistachio grove had somehow been distilled into liquid silk. Each sip unfolded like a sonnet. The wildflower latte, meanwhile, was pure poetry in a cup. Delicately floral without being overpowering, it carried an almost ethereal sweetness, like spring itself had been persuaded to dissolve into espresso. It was whimsical, elegant, and astonishingly memorable. The Green Room Cafe has achieved what so many coffee shops aspire to but few truly accomplish: creating not just beverages, but an experience -- one steeped in artistry, comfort, and just the right amount of enchantment. A triumph. Five stars scarcely feels sufficient. Oh, and parking was mindlessly easy, the owner was present, the bathrooms impeccable, nursing mother's room near restrooms and high ceilings to dissipate the hum.

I love finding a coffee shop that has their own house made syrups. I tried the monthly special, Wildflower latte with an added espresso shot and sadly it just tasted like flavored milk. I want to be able to taste the espresso and decided to pivot to a cocktail instead. Their cocktails were well made and the presentation was perfect. While there isn't a large selection of liquors, they have the staples to make most go-to cocktails in addition to their monthly specials (both cocktail and mocktail options). The food is what really stands out and would bring me back. You are able to choose a salad, flatbread or sandwich and their creations are unique and delicious. I had the pesto, peas and goat cheese on flatbread and was pleasantly surprised to find I could order the flatbread as a half order for $9 instead of committing to a whole order. I will be back but the coffee still needs some work before it would be enticing enough to became my go to location. Overall, it's a fun spot with options for everyone and a great addition to the Plainfield area.
