Springfield Restaurant Guide

My wife and I moved to Southwest Missouri three years ago; after living in Austin for eight years we were determined to find a restaurant we could call our 'own' that had the sixth street unpretentious funkiness with good food that we had grown to love. Nonna's has come to be that place. Where else in the Ozarks can you get great Crepes and Spanakopita? We love the table overlooking the kitchen; and the cooks regularly come up to say hello to our three year old son. Odds are that the bad reviewer doesn't know good marinara from a bottle of ketchup.

I've been dining at Nonna's for years. I have never been disappointed in any way. The food is always excellent, the service friendly & efficient. Take the whole family for dinner or meet one friend for lunch--it's great.

My family have been regulars at Nonna's for over 10 years. Our kids have literally grown up eating the Marinara Sauce at Nonna's. When the Faucett family sold the restaurant in 2006 we were nervous that the restaurant would change dramatically, we were pleased to find new owners who appreciated the way Faucett Family ran things and had apprenticed under them to remain true to their recipes. We have always had a good time there and we feel that the unkindness and overall tone of the previous review is unfair and unjustifiable.
We'll be back.

We had a terrible experience at Nonna's on Feb 15th 2007, we were enjoying our night out with friends until , one of us got an order of spaghetti that tasted slightly sour , and in his terms AWFUL , we all tried it and agreed it wasnt just some sort of herb or strange ingrediant it truly tasted terrible, we asked to exchange it for something else , our waitress left and returned to say that she could box up the entree for us and could order us some fettucine but would have to charge us for it as well , she suggested that we talk to the manager when we said this was unacceptable , the manager arrives , he is incensed , angry agitated and DEMANDs to know what the problem is , we explain , he tells us there is nothing wrong with their sauce and that perhaps we just dont know what good marinara is , JERK. He is furious for suggesting something else ... he will not replace the spaghetti and demands to know whats wrong with it On and on , he was RUDE hateful and had the nerve to yell at us , he also ruined our evening and we will never return to his place of business again , we had to demand they remove it from the ticket and this they almost refused our meal was overpriced , add ons were expensive and the appetizer was minimal and served stale , WHAT a HORRIBLE experience NEVER Eat at this establishment , tell your friends tell your coworkers NEVER NEVER NONNA HAHAH
