Nino's Italian Restaurant

Nino's Italian Restaurant has served Italian dining on Staten Island since 1994, with classic dishes made from fresh ingredients and a menu of daily specials. Diners often single out the veal, the vodka penne, the spinach ravioli and the tiramisu, and there is a separate children's menu for families.

The restaurant is open most afternoons and evenings, with shorter Sunday hours. Private parties can be held in three main rooms or a banquet hall that seats up to 120, and catering and To-Go orders are available for family gatherings and corporate events. It sits on Hylan Boulevard on the North Shore, a few minutes from the Verrazano Bridge.
