Nonna Emilia Ristorante Italiano

About

Local family owned Italian restaurant with award winning recipes.

Story

My Nonna (Nonna is Italian for Grandmother) Emilia grew up in Florence, Italy where her mother and grandmother taught her to cook in the family café. In 1921, Nonna Emilia left Italy on a steamship to North America and six years later opened one of Portland's first authentic Italian restaurants with her husband, Ernie Ceccanti.

Nonna always insisted on using the finest ingredients when she prepared her specialties. She put eleven herbs and spices and a special blend of meats in her famous sauce. Her pastry-like dough and freshly ground cheeses made an extraordinary pizza. And, she took great pride in always serving enormous portions of every entrée she prepared.

In the family tradition, Nonna Emilia passed her recipes from "the old country" down to me. Today, in the restaurant that bears her name, we continue to prepare her Italian recipes with that same price!

Buon-Appetito

We were referred by a friend, who loves the place. It sells itself for being a small family place, and it delivered. It definitely had a small unassuming vibe, and the food was surprisingly good. Traditional Italian fare. $15-25 per person for anything from pizza, pastas, and even sandwiches. I would recommend this place for a less expensive date night for those who love good Italian food.

3.5 - The atmosphere is inviting and the staff is super friendly. Most of the food is so-so (the bottled salad dressings are particularly dreadful) and portions are honestly too big. They should put a little more effort into quality over quantity. However, their pizzas are great if you like a deep-dish style and, true to their claims, their tomato meat sauce is amazing. If you like garlic, this is where it's at! Skip everything else and just get the spaghetti or gnocchi with meat sauce. You won't be disappointed.

Took my fiancee here for her birthday this year and both of us were HUGELY disappointed. Not only with the food but also the service and the prices. Ive heard positive reviews about this place and I'm a huge fan of authentic Italian food so I definitely thought this was going to be a great night out. However, we quickly realized things were not as they seemed. Once we were seated it took nearly 30 mins to have our orders taken and while we put our orders in we were shocked at the ridiculously high prices. There wasn't a single fair priced item on the menu and once our food finally did arrive at the table it was just another disappointment. The portions were extremely small for such expensive meals and the taste was by far the worst part of our night. I could've overlooked every other negative aspect of the night if the food was truly good authentic Italian food which it sadly was not. My fiancee and I had very high hopes and were super excited to try this place but after experiencing it first hand we both have vowed to never go back.

Sorry I didn't take pictures. I was treated for my birthday. Had the lasagna. Wonderful! With antipasto, salad and garlic bread, it was a feast to be had. The table next to us, ordered a pizza. Not Dominos for sure. It looked amazing! Food, service and atmosphere was to behold! No wonder that they have been in business for over 40 years.

Great food and service. The portions are very big. We've tried alot if there dishes and loved them all except the veal parmesan. The veal is to thin. Over all I love the place.
