Casa Nonna - Wilmington, Delaware

I absolutely loved my visit with friends to Casa Nonna’s. The service was excellent, the food was delicious and the decor combined with the atmosphere really makes this my new favourite place!!
The staff really go out of their way to make sure you are well looked after as you would be in an Italian home. The surprises of the tangerine and walnuts and thank you note make you feel special and valued.
Can’t wait for my next visit!!
Thank you team Casa Nonna!!!

Casa Nonna at DE.CO is a fantastic addition to Wilmington’s dining scene! Located right inside the Hotel Du Pont, it’s a full-service Italian spot with a stylish but comfortable vibe. The space is gorgeous—wood-paneled ceilings, geometric tile floors, and an open kitchen where you can watch the magic happen. The bar area has a great vibe too.

The food is outstanding. We started with the Porchetta Rotolini—crispy, sesame-crusted rolls stuffed with porchetta, broccoli rabe, and provolone, served with this insanely good long hot cream sauce. Could’ve eaten a whole plate of just that. Baked Clams had a spicy ‘nduja kick and a rich, buttery leek sauce. Very flavorful. The Mozzarella Stick is not what you’d expect. It's huge, crispy, and topped with an eggplant parm mousse over a yellow tomato sauce. Next-level inventive.

For mains, the Mortadella Pizza was unique and delicious. They fry the dough before baking it, so it’s light and crispy, topped with creamy stracciatella, yellow tomatoes, and pistachio crumble. The Pork Osso Buco Piccata was insane. Melt-in-your-mouth tender with a bright, piccata sauce—definitely worth ordering.

Finished with Tiramisu and Panna Cotta—both excellent. The tiramisu was classic and perfectly done, and the panna cotta had a citrusy, white chocolate twist with dark cherries that balanced everything out.

Service was friendly and attentive, and with happy hour from 4-7 PM, it's a great spot for drinks and small plates, too.

We wanted to try the pasta and a few more things, so looking forward to going back.

Highly recommend if you’re in Wilmington or staying at the Du Pont!

Absolutely Fabulous 👌
Atmosphere was a soft vibe as you looked out to Wilmington City. In Deco, Casa Nanna demands your attention at first sight with a very inviting entrance. The service was attentive and quick to fulfill any requests by the customer. The pricing was low considering the artistry of each meal, yet also perfect for inner city lifestyle. Cocktails were delightful and refreshing. The appetizers were at a perfect portion and extremely eye-catching. Delicious!!! With a new spin on Italian cuisines. Entrees couldn't have been more perfect. Left there with a beaning smile and a plan to return as soon as possible. The owners of Bardea know exactly what they're doing. I'm so excited for Wilmington De.

So so excited to have a fresh new Italian restaurant in downtown Wilmington. The flavors of each dish were heartwarming and delicious. All the classics but with a little twist. I will definitely be back to try some of the other menu items.

I had the pleasure of visiting Casa Nonna for the first time yesterday, and it certainly lived up to my expectations! As a regular at Bardea, I’ve come to expect top-notch service and unique, delicious dishes—and Casa Nonna did not disappoint.

Our server, Amaunte, was excellent. He was incredibly personable and made our dining experience feel special from start to finish. My husband tried the mozzarella stick paired with eggplant parm mousse, and said it's one of the best he’s ever had. He also enjoyed the branzino, which was served in a split style—easy to eat and full of flavor.

I opted for the spaghetti, which was delicious, complemented perfectly by fresh basil. The drinks from the bar were equally impressive, making the meal even more enjoyable.

A highlight was the cozy ambiance—like being invited into an Italian Nonna’s home for dinner. To top it all off, we received a thoughtful note from our server, Amaunte thanking us for our visit, which was such a nice personal touch. I’m already looking forward to my next visit, especially to try the chicken parm appetizer, served pizza-style.

All in all, it was a fantastic experience, and I can’t wait to return!

Tried out the new spot in town! The food was super tasty. The service was great. I enjoyed my self I will definitely visit again.

Loved the food here! The Chicken Parm and mozzarella sticks appetizer had a fun twist on the traditional version. The fig pizza had a sweet honey drizzle that balanced the savory prosciutto. The barramundi was okay and had a lot of seasoning. Focaccia was fluffy.

Have now been for happy hour a couple of times since this place has opened, and service has been stellar both times. Food is delicious, and the espresso martini is maybe the best I've ever had. Great spot for a stop after work.
