Operating successively for over 10 years, owner Joe consistently caters to a customer that has become spoiled by the creativity and authenticity of what old world pizza is supposed to be. Their story just doesn’t end with great pies! La Nonna’s name, has an obligation to provide its patrons with delicious southern Italian dishes, just like Grandma use to prepare every Sunday.
As Joe states, “our food has to be like eating at Grandma’s house every single time.” As Joe put it, “it is about the traditions of family.

Picture yourself on the narrow streets of Naples where you have the chance to savor the most flavorful pizza that strikes the right balance of freshly prepared sauce combined with perfectly melted cheese on a golden crust that is light and crisp.
