Went to celebrate closing on our new house. Tasty seasonal martinis. We had baked clams. Salmon arrostì and Walleye arrostì . Both delicious. Pistachio cheesecake for dessert. A winner. It was crowded for a Tuesday night so a little noisy. Seasonal merriment.

Food & waitstaff were excellent. The only drawback was the noise. Once the room filled up, we had to yell to hear each other.

Absolutely wonderful experience once again at Nonna Silvias last night. We started with an appetizer of fried calamari they were outstanding. I had my old favorite of pumpkin ravioli. It certainly did not disappoint. My husband had a special which was black, squid ink pasta with calamari in oil garlic sauce. It was outstanding we had the apple bread pudding for dessert with caramel gelato. It was wonderful.

Had a lovely birthday dinner for my husband last night. Everyone LOVED their food! I am always worried about our vegetarian family member but she found a shepherd’s purse pasta filled with chanterelle mushrooms much to her liking! There were at least 3 other good vegan or vegetarian options for her to choose, more than many eateries! I chose Nonna’s because I know they have great food at good prices and its location close to the Kennedy exway makes getting to an after work celebration easier for our family. It was quite loud and we hadto shout to be heard. That is my only real complaint.
