" Nonna Ilva is a cute little restaurant with fantastic pizza! I especially enjoyed the pepperoni pizza, which was loaded with toppings. The only downside would be the limited indoor seating, but this place is perfect for grabbing takeout or enjoying it outside. Overall a great spot if you're looking for Italian! " (*Curated Review*)

" I cannot rave enough about Nonna Ilva! From the moment I walked in, I felt transported to a tiny Italian eatery. The ambiance is cozy and intimate, making it perfect for a date night. We started with the bruschetta, which was topped with fresh tomatoes and basil. The pizza was thin and crispy; easily the best I've had in this area—so much flavor! For dessert, we opted for the tiramisu, and it did not disappoint. Dessert was rich, creamy, and light all at once. This place is a true treasure! " (*Curated Review*)

" What an enjoyable experience! The butter sauce pasta was rich and flavorful, and the portion sizes were generous, making it a good value for the price. During our visit, we noticed the owner was actively engaging with patrons, which added a personal touch to the atmosphere. Definitely looking forward to another visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Great place for authentic Italian food! I loved the vegan options available, and the pizza had a fantastic flavor. I’m a regular, and each visit impresses me. It does get crowded at meal times, but that speaks to their quality. I find it worthwhile as every dish I’ve tried has been wonderful! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was very excited to visit Nonna Ilva due to all the positive reviews. I ordered the cheese pizza, but it was a bit underwhelming compared to what I anticipated. The service was friendly, but I felt that the food could be improved. Maybe it's still worth another try, as I know places can have off nights. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a charming little restaurant! I visited on a busy Friday night and still had a great meal. The cheese pizza was excellent, with a delicious and fresh sauce. Our server was friendly, but I could see them handling a lot that night. I’ll be coming back soon for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was limited on time during my visit to Carlisle but decided to pop into Nonna Ilva for a quick bite. The Italian sub was huge and filled with fresh ingredients, just what I needed! While I expected a little more from the ambiance, I found it cozy enough for a quick sit-down. I’d happily return for lunch! " (*Curated Review*)
