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.
Hands down the best Zepole around. Filling is delicious & the dough has a perfect texture. The sandwiches are decent. Tasty, but I find the bread is a little bit tough. Portion is good. Lobster tails are a must try. Prices for some of the items a bit steep in my opinion compared to some other Italian bakeries in Montreal. I'll be back next year for zepole again!
Very nice looking restaurant, not particularly spacious but enough space & very clean. Love the overall visual aesthetic of the place. Order system with beeper numbers is really convenient. Staff all seems really friendly, helpful, & respectful.
Great food, mostly sandwiches but a good variety plus delicious pizzas & sides.
Wide assortment of snacks & pastries, all of which look amazing & the few I've tried were delicious.
There's a little side area that serves up drinks, like iced lattes & various coffees.
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

Very well located place with parking around the area, cozy decoration, good ambiance, very busy, delicious sandwiches, fresh, tasty, also a wide variety of desserts, totally recommended spot in Lachine!
Had lunch here & everything was just really good. The sandwiches were super fresh, packed with plenty of meat & veggies, & the bread was perfect. The fries were crispy & addictive & the salad was very fresh!
It's simple food done really well, & you can taste the quality. Definitely a spot I'll come back to.
We drive in every now & then from Pierrefonds because this place is just so good. The coffee, the pizza & especially the sandwiches. Kids love it every time as well which is a huge bonus & the atmosphere is great as well with the family.
I used to come here almost every weekend for the spicy chicken sandwich - it was my favorite. Unfortunately, the chicken is now much thicker & chewy, which really changes the whole experience. It's a shame, because it used to be such an amazing sandwich.
I really loved the spicy chicken sandwich, however since you started using thicker pieces of chicken I don't like it as much. Please bring back the classic spicy chicken sandwich. 😊
