    Berry Martini and Lemonchello Martini
    Luis T.

    Worth the wait! Amazing, delicious food. We had the Seafood Pasta, and Steak Medallions. Let me tell you, it was better than I expected, just delicious. It went well with their berry martini. The service was amazing, with good vibes all around.

    Spaghetti bolognese

    We really enjoy coming here when we're in town. Inviting eating area with quite a bit of space. I had the spaghetti bolognese and my wife had the seafood fettuccini. Both were very flavorful. They also bring out fresh complimentary bread, butter and oil and vinegar. Service was fast and friendly. Would recommend!

    We had dinner at Nonnis last night. We love authentic Italian when we can find it. Nonnis Italian Bistro is probably one of the best Italian restaurants we have been too. The restaurant is a cute spacious location right in the heart of Seaside OR. The place was packed and I completely understand why. The food is amazing! We were greeted right away. Had a short wait so we sat near the bar in a comfy lounge. Once seated we were given fresh bread to snack on. Our waitress came and greeted us right away. Food came out hot within 15 min. We were absolutely pleased with the entire experience. I highly recommend stopping in at Nonnis. It's authentic dishes, made with fresh homemade ingredients. It's the fine dining we were hoping for on our date night. Make sure to stop in 30 min or so before you plan to eat to place your name on the waitlist. It's a busy restaurant and sooo worth the wait!

    This is a popular Italian restaurant in Seaside, and fills up quickly, even in the off season. Chef's special risotto: 3.5/5 I guess I don't understand what is so special about risotto--just seems like creamyish rice in sauce, but it's not very easy to make? The salmon served on top was perfectly cooked. Veggies were ok--squash was a bit watery, some green beans a little stringy, broccoli overcooked or from frozen. Cannelloni: 3/5 I was expecting a meat-filled tube of pasta, but they describe it as a crepe, which is more accurate because the "wrap" is quite thin. The meat filling was suaceless ground meat vs. formed like a meatball. Services was friendly, although we were not offered amaretto/sambuca at the end of our meal.

    Tiramisu

    We went to celebrate Father's Day. We enjoyed a seafood pasta it was perfectly delicious shrimp was cooked to perfection, the clappino was very testy crab was so fresh shrimp was nice and crunchy and the chicken picatta was so amazing the vegetables were so fresh and delicious for dessert we had there tiramisu so delicious each layer is so good. Our waitress Maria is exceptional she just knows exactly what we want, she really helps to make us have an exceptional experience.

    Our group and great food.

    Great italian food and service in Seaside. Loved the food and will go back again when in town. We even had a couple in our group that shared a plate and they split it up for them which was really nice.

    Best meal we've had in Seaside. Wonderfully prompt and attentive service. Want to return again this trip.

    Cannelloni and fresh bread. So good
    Joseph P.

    Well here is a story for you. Food was fast, fresh, terrific! Got the cannelloni. So good. It's a hard item to find and this was tremendous. But here comes the story. Some people need to be more self aware, I didn't say anything to wait staff either, but about 8-10 feet away, was a "gentleman" that provided a very loud obnoxious conversation with about 40+ F bombs as loud as possible. I heard his whole conversation, I really enjoyed the service and great food, but had a hard time trying to zone out this loud guy. Everyone else was polite and respectfully "table talk" loud. I was at least 8-10 feet away and I heard everything as loud as can be. So maybe he's reading this? Probably not, But check the room, become a bit self aware as I was glad I ate quickly to get out of your loudness. But wanted to enjoy my meal a bit more. Funny thing, a bit afterwards I saw the same guy walking out on Broadway still dropping f-bombs as loud as he could. Wild. Other than that, this place is amazing. Fresh, fast, kind.

    From the moment I saw the name Nonni's Italian Bistro, I knew I had to go -- my grandbabies call me "Nonni," so it felt meant to be! On our last evening in Seaside, we stopped in for an early dinner and were so glad we did. We started with the wedge salad, which was good, though not quite my favorite. They also bring out bread with balsamic and olive oil for dipping. I'll admit I'm a little biased because my favorite local spot adds herbs, crushed red pepper flakes, and minced garlic to theirs -- and honestly, it's a total game changer! For the main course, we split the cannelloni, and it was delicious with plenty of food for two. And of course, we couldn't leave without trying the raspberry panna cotta... heavenly! I seriously wish more restaurants near me still served panna cotta because this one was such a treat. Would definitely return the next time I'm in Seaside!

    We made an effort to come to Nooni during our Portland trip, on this quest to find an authentic Italian restaurant and we found that and more. We got the seafood pasta with muscles to share. The seafood pasta came with a cream sauce and was loaded with seafood including shrimp, clams and salmon. The food was amazing and satisfied our Italian food cravings. We were traveling with a toddler and what made this place even more memorable was the kind staff. We had a squirmy toddler who doesn't like to sit for long periods of time so after sitting during the appetizers, by the time our food came out, she wanted to walk around. The staff came by and was so kind and understanding, a couple of them even crouched down to talk to her and give her 5 fives. By the time we left, they became best friends and my daughter was waving at her everytime she walked by. I felt like we were so well taken care of that we just left eating at our Italian Auntys restaurant. I can't wait to come back next time I'm in Portland.

    I thought this place was pretty good, I ordered to go while here in business. Ordered the seafood pasta, Traditional Alfredo with 3 small clams, 3 shrimp and a piece of salmon. I would think a little more for the $30, but it was prepared well and very flavorful. Nice chunk of fresh bread with an oil and vinegar side and butter. Nice touch. Tiramisu was a bit granular in texture but not bad. I don't think I'd order it again. Appreciate that they packaged the hot and cold separately. Very friendly wait staff, nice looking restaurant. Would eat here again. Almost forgot the Italian cream soda, it was really good.

    The lasagna is always on point
    Laylah S.

    Since our first visit last year, we have gone back twice. They are consistently delicious and service is always great, considering how busy they are. Nonni's will continue to be our very favorite stop to eat when we are in Seaside.

    Amazing place! Great food, service and experience. The most welcoming people and lovely decor and the food was so wonderful. I could not recommend it enough and I'm Italian. Loved it.

    As much as we had hoped Nonni's DOES NOT have a happy hour even though they open at 3pm. Too bad as that was the best happy hour

    My husband and I went to Bistro for my birthday. I highly recommend making a reservation as we did…read more The space is cozy (about 15 tables or so) and on Saturday they had live music. The service and food quality was impeccable. Our server Jessica's timing was incredible with delivery of wine, bread, entrees, and dessert. The food was high quality, fresh, delicious, and original. My seafood cioppino with soba noodles had a sampling of local seafood, and my husband loved the Pinot noir Demi glacé steak and Parmesan risotto. We would come back for another special occasion.

    This seems to be a local favorite. The service is very good…read more The price of the food is the standard over priced norm for the area, so no surprise there. The clam chowder was grainy, as in sand I assume, and tasted fishy. This was not great. I had really great clam chowder this week at a few places and this was the worst one. I had the seafood linguine which tasted fishy. So it was not great and it was expensive, per the norm for the area. I understand the pricing matches the area but the food was not good. I normally give a place a couple tries before posting a review when I have a bad experience but we are from out of town and with a limited time schedule. The disappointment of a wasted expensive evening pushed me to post this so no one else spends the same money, wasting their time and resources. TLDR: No matter how nice you are it does not make up for low quality food with expensive pricing.

    Per recommendation of front desk at RiverTide Suites we tried this place out. Not disappointed,…read moreservice was friendly, good amount of seating indoors and out and partially out as we were. Outdoor has large tables with fireplaces which would be great for large groups. We started with the fast fried Calamari, which was a good amount with both rings and tentacles. Wife had the Cioppino while I had the Seafood Pasta. The Cioppino was a bit pricey; however, was loaded with seafood and included some king crab which we had not seen at other places we have had the dish. The Seafood Pasta was rich and also loaded with seafood. Would certainly recommend if searching for seafood. Note: when we came at 6pm on a Monday we were told there was a 20min wait. We walked around the boardwalk and returned in 15 and the table was ready in less than 5min.

    This was a pretty solid dining experience. I went with a group down in Seaside…read more There was a bit of a wait because we didn't have reservations, but that's OK. It wasn't long. Once seated, we felt a little bit rushed. We ordered drinks which did not come for 15 to 20 minutes. We decided to order a couple of appetizers while we waited. We ordered the cheese bread and the calamari. While we waited, the waitress asked us more than once if we wanted to order our main courses. I've always had an issue with that. I haven't received any drinks or appetizers so I'm not ready to order until I at least receive those. She seemed annoyed and just walked away. When she did bring our drinks, she blamed the wait time on the bartenders being too busy. no apology just excuses. That bothered me a little. The calamari was somewhat soggy, but the cheese bread was good. Anyway, once we got our meals ordered, they arrived pretty quickly. I ordered the cod fish and chips. My daughter ordered the prime rib. My wife ordered the sesame crusted Ahi tuna. And another guest of mine ordered the cod burger. My fish and chips was decent. Not the best I've had but no complaints about that. My wife specifically ordered her Ahi super rare, but it was a little more cooked than she prefers, but still decent. My guests cod burger was good he said. Last but not least my daughter's prime rib was excellent. Being on the ocean, I personally would not order beef being from Arizona, but I took a bite and it was excellent. So overall, the food was good, but not amazing and the service was definitely lacking. I will try other options if I were to return.

    This place on yelp says it is dog friendly. We walked in the front door and they made us leave…read morebecause we had a dog. They said only service dogs are welcome, not pets. I was a little disappointed in yelp, pointing me into their direction for dog, friendly establishments. It is not. And they didn't seem to care at all.

    Gluten-free review:…read more Alright, so picture this: we're just minding our business, channeling our inner 8-year-olds, aggressively pressing buttons and pretending we're pro gamers at the arcade next door. You know, the kind of competitive energy where you're yelling "ONE MORE ROUND" but your stomach is over there whispering, "...or hear me out, pizza?" So we caved. Enter Fultano's Pizza. We followed our noses. First things first, their gluten-free pizza? Basically the same size as their small ( I believe), which in a gluten-free world is a good size. Most places serve a gluten-free pizza that's roughly the size of a coaster, like it's a snack for a squirrel. But here? This bad boy can feed two humans, unless you skipped lunch, then you're just gonna be that human who says, "I'll save some for later" and proceeds to eat the entire thing while making intense eye contact with anyone who dares to judge you. I ordered the Hawaiian (yes, pineapple on pizza) and added fresh tomatoes on top and honestly? So good. The crust had that crispy-but-not-cardboard vibe and the toppings were actually tastey, not the sad kind you peel off and flick across the table. The pizza is soft and not hard. No breaking a tooth here! If you're sensitive to spice, pro tip: ditch the red sauce. I'm not saying it'll blow your socks off, but if your spice tolerance is heart burn when going to bed (or an allergy) you've been warned. But if not the sauce is pretty mild. They also have a salad bar. I didn't touch it because, you know... pizza. But if you're one of those balanced, salad-before-pizza people, it's an option. This day I was channeling my inner child, so pizza first. This place is Just good vibes, good pizza, and a delightful reminder that gluten-free doesn't have to mean flavor-free or starving while you watch your family eat. We'll definitely be back. Probably after our next heated arcade match where I pretend I'm there for the games and not the post-victory pizza.
