Menu

An Italian Steakhouse on West Randolph established in 2015 as a tribute to Nonna Formento, combining classic American steakhouse traditions with Italian cuisine and family recipes, part of B. Hospitality Co. The restaurant is notable for its family-legacy red-sauce Italian approach and has earned OpenTable Diner's Choice recognition in both 2023 and 2024. Sister concept Nonna's Pizza & Sandwiches operates in the same complex as a contemporary Italian grab-and-go with an outdoor patio.
