Nonnina comes through in these reviews as a cozy, welcoming Italian spot in Lachine with a bakery like pastry counter, fast service, and a lively but friendly vibe. The menu earns high marks for generous, fresh sandwiches such as porchetta and Italian meats, with the spicy chicken sandwich a longtime favorite though some readers note the chicken cutlets have grown thicker and chewier. A broad pastry selection including cannoli, pistachio cannolis, tiramisu, and zeppole is consistently praised, as are the coffee and espresso drinks which many describe as excellent, even if a few note variability. Desserts and coffees pair well with a wide range of Italian baked goods, and the pastries are described as outstanding and reliably delicious. The staff are repeatedly praised for warmth, attentiveness, and efficient service, contributing to a familial cafe vibe and a strong sense of community, though it can be busy or noisy at peak times. Overall it is regarded as a must visit neighborhood gem with substantial sandwiches, superb bakery items, and a welcoming atmosphere.
The spicy chicken sandwich used to be my favorite sandwich in Montreal, until they started using thick chicken cutlets. Please give us the option for thin crispy chicken :) #bringbackspicychickenclassic

An absolute gem of Lachine - from food to staff to ambience. Our favourite local spot for croissants, foccacia pizzas, & of course, the spicy chicken sandwhich. Beyond the great food, the staff is incredibly welcoming - it's a neighbourhood staple for good reason & quite possibly the heart & soul of the area. Highly recommend!
I had the pleasure of dining at this cozy Italian spot recently, & it was a wonderful experience. The young cashier was friendly & enthusiastic, & he suggested the steak pepperoni, which was absolutely delicious. The service was warm & welcoming, & the food truly exceeded my expectations. I'll definitely be coming back & highly recommend it to anyone who loves great Italian food & excellent service
C'est un endroit vraiment très agréable, à la fois pour venir manger & pour prendre un café délicieux. L'ambiance qui y règne est très chaleureuse & accueillante.

Amazing place , went for brunch , the salad was really fresh vegetables & the cheese was melting
Can not describe the pastries , as were the very best - portuguese Nata, Italian cannoli & even a doughnut were to die fo
The coffee's are good, amazing when not
Too busy, ive tried all the sandwhiches except vegetarians & the spicy chicken is to die for, the cannolis are amazing & the zeppoles when in season are the best in MTL
