Drove by this place for years. How can there be a good restaurant in North Ridgeville?
Recently met an older lady who married into an Italian family. She told me that the mother-in-law took her sauce recipe to the grave and Nino's was the only place that comes close in taste and quality. I decided to give Nino's a try.
It was cold and frigid outside, record breaking February weather. I was surprised to see so many people had ventured out to eat. The place was fairly busy for a sub-zero Tuesday night.
Everything about this place is amazing. I ordered chicken parm and was delighted to see that they didn't pull a lump of chicken out of a SYSCO bag. It appeared to have a homemade crust.
The sauce was pure and smooth. I don't like chunky sauce. No huge hit of garlic. No aftertaste when I got home. A perfect tasty blend of flavor and texture. Nino's serves plenty of sauce with their entrees so you don't have to beg for more.
The staff is so nice, but it doesn't matter. I would go there anyway.
As for their prices, I never mind paying for quality. The portions are large and the flavors are spot on. This is not Olive Garden, not even in the same league.
I drive by Nino's several times per week. There are a lot of cars parked out front everytime. They also do carry outs.
