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.
This place is always packed with customers & the line can be quite long. The coffee was amazing but the sandwiches were underwhelming. The bread was hard & the sandwich seemed to lack sauce, which made it dry. There aren't enough tables inside to accommodate everyone, & the outdoor seating area is infested with bees. The pastries weren't the best (key lime pie was too sour, cannoli was warm & tasted weird). However, this place has a great vibe & the service is great. Some things could be improved but I will come back to try different things because they offer quite a variety of items!
What a Gem of an establishment. There isn't a single item we ordered that wasn't perfect. Croissant with ham & cheese will have you reminiscing France, chicken cutlet is the freshest & tastiest I've had in MTL.

Un excellent rapport qualite/prix, il y a beaucoup de choix que ce soit en salé ou sucré, & tout est vraiment bon, la qualité des ingrédients est au top & ne se ressent pas dans le prix contrairement à d'autres endroits. Le service client est également très bon, respectueux, souriant, efficace & rapide. Je recommande les yeux fermés Nonnina
It is a place that is perfect for genuine Italian at the beach light & refined menu. Unique coffees & wedding like dishes, seems to get better year after year.
Love love love❤️ best place to eat good sandwiches near lachine canal watching sunsets 😍 their tiramisus are to die for😮💨 Extremely Kind staff, one time, they forgot to heat up my sandwich (which is understandable considering the crowd) so they offered me a free bombloni🫶

Wonderful establishment. The food is delicious & the staff courteous. My favorites are the Nonnina sandwich, the house salad & the lemon cookies. The gelato is also not to be missed!
Loved it!! Need to come back to try more! Amazing prices, quality food & great vibes + service. Definitely recommend the house salad & the fries is a must. Affogato was amazing... almost as good as in Firenze 🫶
Great delicious sandwiches & pastry. Perfect place for a quick bite. The steak & chicken pane are must-try items. The pear almond tart is from another world.
Phenomenal food, service & pricing. disappointed that they mixed up my cappuccino & gave me a filter coffee. That being said will be going back 100% & highly recommend it.

Cool spot close to the lachine canal. Great spot for Italian sandwiches, pizza, pastries, desserts & coffees. Gets crazy busy at lunch & on weekends. Staff is super friendly & superb.
We went there for the first time yesterday & we absolutely loved it!! Amazing selection of pastries, we tried the cannolis so yummy! Also their natas are scrumptious, they are everything they should be & more!! Their cold pizzas were perfect, good thickness of the dough & great flavor. Very friendly staff too, they treat you as family. We will definitely be back to try more next time we are in the area. Thanks for the great lunch!
Si vous passez par lachine n'oubliez surtout pas d'aller voir l'équipe de feu du nonina. les sandwich, les salades & les pâtisserie sont malades sans oublié les tites pizzas complètements folles .Un service sur la coche & tres professionnel malgré l'achalandage très élevé Good job les machines lâchez pas
Ayer mi esposo compro unas pizzas, unos noquis , unas croquetas de pescado y unos macarons con unas bebidas. Debo decir que lo que eligió para mi que fueron los noquis... que estuvieron realmente pésimos , si bien los noquis en sí estaban suaves , la salsa en la que venían era absurdamente insípida , además diría que era salsa con noquis en vez de noquis en salsa, no lo volvería a comprar, las croquetas las probé y debo decir que estaban muy ricas , la pizza era gruesa y seca creo que si le hubiesen puesto la mitad de la salsa de los noquis a la pizza hubieran estado mejor si esta no hubiese estado insípida claro está, los macarons: su consistencia estaba bien, se sentían frescos pero no tenían gran sabor siempre, pido los de pistacho en cualquier sitio por que nunca fallan pero estos no sabían a nada , el único que se destaco fue uno rosa con sabor a tal vez fresas o frambuesa pero porque tenia un disco de mermelada gelatinizada bastante dulce por eso su sabor era mas intenso. He visto fotos de dulces que se ven muy buenos en otras resenas tal vez me arriesgue en otro momento y les de una nueva oportunidad Solo por sus croquetas que estaban ricas.
