    Really enjoyed our time here! Our service was wonderful and the food was absolutely delicious. They were very accommodating to our requests. Could not have had a better experience.

    Nino's never disappoints! A wonderful restaurant for an old school italian dining experience with friends, family or a date. Great place to celebrate a special occasion.

    Wonderful old school italian ambiance,
    Fantastic food and presentation, Impeccable service and a piano player in the background.

    Food and drinks.  Everything fantastic and wonderfully presented.
    - Hot antipasto.  We saw our neighbors enjoying this off the menu treat and had to order it ourselves. So good.  
    - Branzino. Prepared / deboned meticulously table side, mild and sweet, melt in your mouth tender, like butter. Excellent.
    - Frutti di Mare. My go to italian dish, ordered with a garlic / oil sauce and angel hair. Excellent.
    - Dessert. Their signature table side prepared desserts were a highlight to watch at various tables. And were out of this world delicious.
    -  Decorative complimentary pyramid of fruit on ice is always tasty and lovely.
    - Wine, cocktails are great. And the chocolate and espresso martinis delicious!

    Service.

    Outstanding and friendly, professional service from the host, various servers, table-side preparation of Bronzino and dessert.  

    Ambiance.

    Festive holiday lights, spacious seating with plenty of room between tables and old school italian.

    I love great food, service and am very visual: Nino's always delivers wonderful food, service and an outstanding eye candy experience.

    Only Negative? We were so full and gratified I felt I needed someone to roll me out of the restaurant and carry me home.

    Always a fantastic dining experience!

    Decent food, weak service. Seven of us went for a special occasion. Waited interminably for each course and had to ask multiple times for everything. Food came out erratically (five entrees at first, the remaining two about 15 minutes later). Nice piano music, though.

    What a nice place. The Caesar salad is to die for the food is amazing. The staff was so attentive. The drinks were cold and delicious. The tables are very roomy and you are not rushed what so ever. It's a great place for a date or a family dinner. I would highly recommend this place.
    I would give 5 stars but it's not dog friendly lol but that's just me.
    Go and enjoy this place like I did

    If I could give this spot 10 stars I would. Not only is their food exceptional, but so is the service.

    If you're looking for fresh Italian cuisine this is definitely a spot you have to check out. The meatballs are a MUST they're so good! Also don't skip out on dessert they're tiramisu is mouth watering

    It's also great for groups. Whenever I go during the holidays I've seen private gatherings going on -Now that's a holiday dinner I wouldn't want to miss!
