| - This was stop number 5(?) for the Perfect Pizza Quest UYE this time organized by Allison Y.
The time was set for 7pm on a Friday and Nonna's closes at 10pm. On Fridays and Saturdays we were told that the restaurant does not take reservations so basically it was a first come first serve scenario.
I arrived with my wife at around 6:45 or so and stood in the small standing/waiting area at the dine in entrance (there's 2 entrances, dine in and take out) and the area was quite packed.
Somebody came along eventually and had asked if we had our names down or if anybody had spoken to us yet and I had said no. I believed we had about 10 or so coming so I put in our names for 10. The server said that they may have an issue getting us seated all together because it was really busy that evening but we had hoped whatever they could do for us considering it was a busy evening and the place was at capacity with parties ahead of us in the queue even.
We were told it would be perhaps a 50 minute wait and since many were coming from all over I had told the server that it was fine. Not until just after 7pm did more people came but the tables weren't ready till around 730 or so. We had to be seated apart with a table of 6 and another of 4. There wasn't much we could do as the place was at capacity but we took it.
The menu had a lot to choose from and the choices were pretty good from a healthy choice of starters and apps to pasta to pizza to other mains we had a choice but for the most part everybody ordered pizza except for Wayne who went with 2 meatballs and 2 arancini. Our table split the antipasto plate which had a mix of cold cuts, cheese, zucchini, eggplant, olives and other cured meat.
The pizzas ranged from about 11 to 15 dollars and the single serving pizzas were of a good size. My wife had ordered the Firenze which is listed as follows:
"Foccaccia pizza, mozzarella, sliced potato, caramelized onion, goat cheese, whole black olives and seasoned with oregano, olive oil and fresh rosemary. *available only as a pizza."
I had the deluxe "Basic, ham, pepperoni, sliced black olives, fresh mushrooms,and green peppers."
I have to say that I enjoyed this pizza. The crust was good and it wasn't soggy. I'm not sure exactly how it was cooked (on what surface, pan etc) but it was good and it was more of an authentic Italian type pizza versus the closer to Canadian chain type pizza.
The service was attentive and friendly. It is easy to see why this place is very busy. They serve good food at reasonable prices and have a friendly staff.
