Nonna for Lunch

House made Cherry Coke

served warm & piping hot, this bread is worth the visit

We have long been fans of Nonna. We adore the ravioli of Maine lobster. While pregnant, husband had to deal with that craving - which ended up costing a bit more than your typical pickles & ice cream.
For dessert, you would be remiss if you passed up the Praline Nougatine Semifreddo
with Pistachios and Acacia Honey. There is nothing to compare it to - it is THAT good.

So we were very pleased to see that they recently opened for lunch - Fridays only.
The soup sounded like the perfect dish for a cold and rainy day: Fall vegetable minestra with braised lentils and sausage. It was rich, so pleasing, and a good sized portion. It warmed us up immediately and made us wish that we could cook that well!


We then tried the lobster roll, something that is entirely new to the menu and can only be found Friday afternoons. This - this didn't go over so well. It was overly fishy and had some chewy pieces that made eating the sandwich very unladylike. The house made chips were delicious, and ended up saving our lunch, but...this lobster roll was not one of our favorite things.


Our take on the situation: go in and enjoy the soup - or any of their other wonderful entrees. Just pass on the sandwich.
