10/10Our second time here and it was just as delicious as the first time! Definitely try the tiramisu and the almond cake for dessert. The pasta was divine- I’ll be dreaming about carbonara for the rest of my life.

10/10Great cozy place in Alfama. Extremely attentive and friendly service. We really enjoyed our dinner there last week and got back for a tiramissu treat a couple days after which was amazing. Will be back and recommend 100%.

10/10Love Nonna! Cozy atmosphere with fresh and delicious food. Manuel runs this place like a rock star. Prices are very reasonable for food and drinks. Portion size is perfect with a beautiful presentation. Tiramisù was outstanding. We have eaten here on numerous occasions during our stay and always come back when we are in town. Highly recommend ❣️

10/10Everything was excellent! They offered me a tasty welcome drink - prosseco wine , my seafood pasta was delicious and so much seafood! And I saw the desserts there too, very beautiful and home made. The service was very friendly and prompt and the ambience is great for socialising - I met other travellers there! So happy I went to this restaurant.

10/10We truly enjoyed everything about our meal. The bruschetta was fresh and full of flavor, the pizza was perfectly cooked with great ingredients, and the salmon was absolutely delicious. Each dish was thoughtfully prepared and beautifully presented. A wonderful dining experience from start to finish — we’ll definitely be back!

10/10We had the Dorado fish, tortellini, lasagna, magherita pizza, and one other pasta dish. All came out delicious and everyone finished every bite. The atmosphere was cute and cozy and the service was exceptionally friendly. We also had the tiramisu and panna cota dessert and both were very tasty as well. We would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for something different than Portuguese food for a change.

9.5/10I am visiting Nonna for the 6th time in 1 year. The food variety and quality is excellent. Kind and warm service makes you feel at home. There are new additions such as classic Portuguese dishes of the day that yet waiting to be explored. A must for Italian cuisine lovers in Alfama if not entire Lisbon.

2/10Sadly, a big disappointment. Service was poor – the table wasn’t cleared, the main course was forgotten for over two hours, and a new waiter behaved unprofessionally, making sarcastic remarks and even showing us the finger behind our backs. When the food finally arrived, the tiger prawns were just two small prawns presented as a main dish for two people (€60). The wine was good, but both food and service fell short. Especially disappointing since our visit a year ago, before the expansion, was so pleasant. No extra reduction beyond The Fork discount.

From the minute we arrived and we're greeted at the door until we left and bid farewell at the door the service and attention to detail makes you feel like you're the only customers in the restaurant. The food is top class and is one of the best Italian restaurants we've eaten in and not just in Lisbon but anywhere. Can not recommend this restaurant highly enough. 100%

10/10We ate here twice. Very close to our lodging. If you make a reservation for dinner you are seated in the quieter dining room next door, same menu. Both meals were lovely. Not necessarily either Italian or Portuguese, just well prepared food. Very fresh lovely gilled sea bream for lunch on our second meal. Recommend!

10/10Quality of the food was fantastic. We were there for my aunts birthday (a group of 9) and they really made an occasion of it! Free prosecco on arrival, a birthday dessert and limoncello shots after dinner. The staff were extremely friendly and we felt so welcome. Highly recommend visiting if you are in Lisbon.

Nonna is a very nice and affordable restaurant. We got a a welcome prosecco. Then the bruschetta and vitelli tonato were excellent. The seabass was very fresh and had excellent flavor. My pasta aglio e olio e peperoncino also good. Last but not least: very kind/thoughtful service!

9.5/10This is our third visit to this lovely Alfama restaurant. The food is authentic Italian with a wide varie5of choice in Pasta. Their homemade focaccia is a must try. This time we also followed the advice of the chef and ordered grilled Dourada ( Sea Bream ) which was charcoal grilled with a touch of butter. Save a space for their deserts as well since Tiramisu is excellent and their Pana cota is very refreshing. Will keep on coming to this charming place for sure
