We smelled Nino's all day as we walked around Vero Beach. As dinnertime approached we walked over and gazed at the menu. When it was time to eat, we went in. The smell was garlicky and great. We discussed ordering a pizza, which looked to be their specialty. But I thought the Gnocchi with Bolognese sauce looked great. Bill went for the Spaghetti and Meatballs. He also ordered a side of sausage. For appetizers we got a mozzarella and tomato salad, and some fried ravioli.
The service was fast a cheerful. The food was delicious and plentiful. Bill is a real critic of Italian fare and he was delighted.
As it turned out the owner, Croce, was sitting in the next booth. He chatted us up and even gave us a free cannelloni and espresso.
Vero Beach was overall unfriendly and snooty. But Nino's had us leaving with a good taste in our mouths.
