The Origin

Meet Nonno
Stefano.

For over 30 years at his Central Florida restaurants—and more than 50 years in kitchens—Stefano has made food the right way.

Different names. Different locations. Same philosophy:

Make it the right way, or don't make it at all.

At Nonno's Italian Restaurant, one thing kept happening.

Guests would finish their meal, walk to the door, and turn around with the same request:

“Can I take some of that pesto home?”

After hearing it again and again, Stefano finally gave them an answer.

Yes.

That answer became Simply Nonno's.

“Good food doesn't happen by accident.”
— Stefano, Founder

“This review is long overdue! I’ve gone to Nonno’s Italian Restaurant for years and I always love the bread and pesto before the meal. I’m thrilled to have it at home now. The pesto is amazing on a number of things and the jar is super convenient. I can’t wait to see what else they offer next!!!”

“I purchased 2 jars of the pesto and it is stellar. It has a longer shelf life in the jar and tastes just as good as if I were at the restaurant. The jars make excellent gifts.”

Company
Born in a
Restaurant.

Simply Nonno's started with the creamy basil pesto served at Nonno's Italian Restaurant in Central Florida. Guests kept asking if they could take it home, so the restaurant favorite became the first jar in the Simply Nonno's sauce line.

Use it as a pasta sauce, sandwich spread, dip, marinade, finishing sauce, or the shortcut that fixes dinner when dinner needs help.

The Jar

Creamy Pesto

The restaurant-born pesto guests kept asking to take home. Creamy, savory, basil-forward, and built to do more than coat pasta.
