🍝🍕💰 A LITTLE TIP TO SAVE ON YOUR NONNA FAVORITES! 🇮🇹

Did you know you can save money by ordering your takeout directly from the restaurant?

Third-party delivery apps like DoorDash, Grubhub, and Uber Eats charge restaurants commissions on orders. To help offset those costs, many restaurants set higher menu prices on these platforms. And that's before any delivery fees or service charges you may pay!

Want to enjoy your Nonna's favorites for less? Here's how! 👇

📞 Call Nonna directly: 503-649-8531
🥡 Place your takeout order with us.
🚗 Pick it up yourself.

It's a simple way to avoid third-party delivery fees and potentially save on menu prices, too!

Whether you're craving our famous lasagna, a hearty plate of pasta, or one of our popular pizzas, you can enjoy all the Italian goodness you love without paying extra for delivery.

❤️ Same Nonna's goodness. More money left in your pocket!

Thanks for making Nonna Emilia’s part of your family table!

❤️🇮🇹 Feeling incredibly honored and humbled!

Todd and I are so grateful to have Nonna Emilia featured in Unearth the Voyage. Their article beautifully captures what we love about this place — the old-school Italian atmosphere, family-style food, accordion music, and the traditions that have made Nonna Emilia special for nearly 50 years.

When we took over, our hope was to honor the history of this restaurant while bringing back the recipes, traditions, and feeling that people have loved for generations.

Thank you to Unearth the Voyage for telling our story, and thank you to our amazing customers and staff for helping us keep the Nonna Emilia tradition alive. ❤️

With gratitude,
Sheri & Todd 🍝❤️

Some of the best meals in Oregon hide behind the most ordinary storefronts. Tucked along a busy stretch of highway, there's a family-style Italian place

Have family or friends coming in from out of town? Don’t take them to a chain restaurant they could eat at anywhere! Bring them somewhere with big portions, warm hospitality, and the kind of Italian food that feels like coming home. ❤️

And if the forecast has you thinking about a rainy, chilly weekend at the coast… why fight the weather? 🌧️🥶

Stay close to home and come warm up with us at Nonna Emilia's! 🍝🍕🥖

Gather your family. Bring your friends. Share a big plate of pasta, dig into some pizza, and enjoy the kind of comfort food that makes a rainy weekend feel a whole lot better.

This Labor Day weekend, choose local. Choose comfort. Choose Italian.

📍 Nonna Emilia Ristorante Italiano

🍝 Big portions. Homemade Italian favorites. A place to gather.

Your out-of-town guests deserve better than a chain. 😉

🍕 Family Pizza Night Just Got Better ❤️

When you’re feeding a family, every slice (and every dollar) matters.

Some places offer a 13" “large” starting at $19.95 and a 16" “giant” at $27.95…

At Nonna Emilia’s, we believe families deserve more:

✔️ 14" Medium starting at just $16
✔️ 18" Large starting at only $24

That means more slices to share, more smiles around the table, and better value for your family night out. 🏡🍕

Made with care, served with heart—just like Nonna would do.

Bring the family and make it a night to remember. ❤️✨

The restaurant industry has always been about adapting—from handwritten tickets to POS systems, online ordering, and social media. Now, the next big shift is here: AI.

We're excited to start exploring how AI can help us work smarter, serve our guests better, and continue growing while staying true to the homemade Italian experience you know and love.

As entrepreneur Mark Cuban put it:

"There's going to be two types of companies in this world: Those who are great at AI, and everybody else that they put out of business."

Change can be intimidating, but it also brings opportunity. At Nonna Emilia's, we're embracing the future while keeping the traditions that make us who we are.

The billionaire business mogul Mark Cuban believes hard times may be on the way for several industries. Find out who should worry, and why.
