Nonna Emilia (Nonna is Italian for Grandmother) grew up in Florence, Italy where her mother and grandmother taught her to cook in the family café. In 1921, Nonna Emilia left Italy on a steamship for North America, and six years later opened one of Portland’s first authentic Italian restaurants with her husband, Ernie Ceccanti. Nonna always insisted on using the finest ingredients when she prepared

her specialties, which is a tradition we continue to this day. All of our sauces are made from scratch, using our own blended spices, and slow simmered for hours - just like Nonna taught us. All of our dough is made from scratch, and all of our bread is baked in-house. Nonna took great pride in always serving enormous portions of every entrée she prepared, and this is a tradition we hold dear! In the family tradition, Nonna Emilia passed her recipes, lessons and traditions from “The Old Country” down to the restaurant that bears her name. Our Family continues the culinary example set by Nonna Emilia, and prepare her authentic Italian recipes with that same pride. Buon-Appetito,

Nothing better than supporting fellow local small businesses! 🥤❤️ Be sure to stop by and try these amazing dirty sodas at the Orenco Station Farmers Market — they taste as good as they look! Absolutely delicious and refreshing. We love seeing our community support each other.

This Memorial Day weekend, we pause to honor and remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. ❤️🤍💙
Our Fallen Comrade / POW-MIA table serves as a reminder that freedom is never free, and that many families carry the weight of that sacrifice every day.

While we will be closed on Memorial Day itself so our staff can spend time with their families and reflect on the meaning of the day, we would love to serve you before and after the holiday weekend. 🍝

As a small thank you, we proudly offer 10% off for all military veterans every day.

Bring your family, share a meal, and help us honor those who served.

When a legend walks through the door, you take a moment to appreciate it.

Last night, we had the honor of hosting boxing champion Steve Forbes 🥊—a former world titleholder known for his incredible skill and longevity in the ring, and a standout on Season 2 of The Contender. He joined us for dinner, and we’re proud to say he loved the food.

Moments like this are special—but they’re also part of a bigger story. Since 1978, we’ve built our own legacy right here in the community, welcoming everyone from local regulars to celebrities from reality TV, legends from Major League Baseball and the NBA and more.

From champions of the ring to generations of families at our tables, we’re proud to be a place where great moments happen. Come be part of it. 🍝✨
