Nonna — Restaurant in Göteborgs Stad

A late friday evening we were «lucky» (or rather unlucky) to get a table outside at the top deck.

We were hungry, and from all the good reviews, we were expecting good food and above average service.

After about 15 minutes (waiting for the waitor), we ordered drinks and food. We also noticed some movement behind a plant in the corner, but just assumed it was a cat or something wandering the deck…

The food arrived, and we noticed that there was even more movement on the top of the hill behind the restaurant (maybe 3 meters from our table).

When we finally could see what was moving though, it ruined our apetite. It was a pack of rats, moving and climbing only a few meters away from us.

I told the waitor straight away, and he suggested we move to another table. They were well aware of the rats in the backyard.

Sorry, but I guess most people do mind eating in close proximity to city rats…?

The food was not that impressive (the small amount we did try...

It's ok. The food is fine, too much truffle in the tartufo dish, in my opinion but that is not so awful. The biggest problem is the service. The ladies that give service are as if they are forced to work there (and I have been here on various days of the week in different hours). They never pay attention to the customers, are extremely late with responding, do not greet you or have a nice mood (a smile would be nice). Furthermore, all of the extra utensils are not removed after you order! This makes the table extremely crowded and messy. Very unprofessional. I mean we ordered tea and the wine glasses were not removed, we ordered spaghetti and we still had two different kinds of fork and a knife remaining on the table!

Furthermore, they seem to not be able to get rid of the smell of the fish, whenever I go the restaurant smells...

On our first evening in Gothenburg, we searched for a good place to celebrate the second Christmas Day. Since Nonna had a lot of great reviews but was 1,5 km away, we called to see if there was an available table for us. The waiter told she booked us the last available table for 2. Upon arrival we were notified that there have been made some internet bookings while we were walking (!), and our table was no longer available. We were offered a table for an hour, which is not enough to have dinner and rest. The waiter assured us that we will be served at Sorellina (5 min walk from Nonna), but the place was closing when we came by.

Please don't promise a table, if your priority is the internet bookings. It is misleading and...
