Nino’s Pizzeria & Restaurant (Boca Raton & Delray Beach)

Posted on March 20th, 2008 · Boca Raton Delray Beach Italian Pizza

2 Nino’s in Boca Raton

*****  Nino’s Pizzeria & Restaurant, 7120 Beracasa Way, Boca Raton, Florida 33433, (561) 392-9075—&—13900 South Jog Road, Delray Beach, Florida 33445, (561) 499-3988

Nino’s is one of my favorite “mom and pop” Southern Italian joints in South Florida. I could be going out on a limb here, but I think that after you have tried this joint, you will also become a big fan.

Just so you know, the Boca Raton location has been around for something like 25 years…the Delray Beach location has been in business for about 3 years. Over the years, I have eaten in the Boca location something like 30 times and the Delray location twice…although the menus are almost identical, I like the food, ambiance and service in the Boca restaurant better…call me a creature of habit, but I really feel at home when I enter the Boca joint…from the way I am greeted at the front door, to Nino the owner waving and talking from behind the pizza counter to the customers…the food and service in Delray Beach is just fine, but there is something “special” about the Boca location.

Although Nino’s seemingly “follows” the standard pattern…Soup or salad, garlic rolls, entree with a pasta side…this joint makes some of the most  delicious dishes and pizza that you have ever eaten. I would personally match its veal chop parmigiana—bone in chicken cacciatore— bone in chicken scapriello—shrimp scampi entrees against any Italian restaurant down here in South Florida.

Like I said before, Nino’s has been around for something like 25 years. The Boca Raton joint is jammed for dinner 7-days a week and has a takeout business that seems to be never ending. The Delray Beach spot has also  developed quite a following…but my heart belongs to the Boca joint. Both joints are open 7 days a week for lunch and dinner.

Great food. Great service. Pizza joint prices…

By the way, Nino and his wife Josephine own Josephine’s Italian Restaurant which is located on Federal Highway in Boca Raton. That’s a story for another day…but Josephine’s is a very good “white table cloth” joint.

    Siciallian pizza is one the best I ever had. If you don’t want dough, order the thin crust. (which is also excellant, if thats what you like)

  4. KLJ says...

    I think that Nino’s has one of the best pizza slices around.
    Just like the one I use to get in my Bx days as a kid. Of course it doesn’t cost 20 cents but the taste is great.

    My neighbors tell me about all of these pizza joints in Boca. As far as I’m concerned Nino’s has the best pizza in the area.

  10. Ostrow says...

    All three Nino’s have terrific food.
    My favorite dish is their veal chop parmigiana for 20 bucks. It’s as good as the chop that goes for 40 bucks in other places.

    Jeff,
    Have to rate Nino’s in Boca to be one of the best red sauce joints in the area.
    My wife and I have been eating there for years and the food is consistently good.
    They also make a terrific NYC STYLE pizza that could hold its own against anything in the 5 boros.

  17. GASMAN says...

    I use to eat pretty regularly at Nino’s in Boca. I stopped eating there about 6 months ago. The food was always good same for the prices. The reason I quit the place is that I think the owner takes his customers for granted. All the times I ate there not even once did the owner offer to buy me a dessert or anything else. Every so often something should be on the house to show a steady customer that you appreciate him.

  18. MYHNJU says...

    The Boca store is better than the one in Delray.
    The food in Boca is very good.

  19. ED K says...

    Food is very good.
    Like others here, regular steady customers never shown any favoritism. To the owner, every so often buy the table a glass wine or dssert. It’s good pr.

  34. I have been eating at Nino’s in Boca for at least 20 years. The food is consistently good. Service is always good. This is one of the best red sauce restaurants in the area. As someone else mentioned Nino’s veal chop parm is a terrific dish. I also love its chicken scarp and cacciatore both on the bone which is rare to find, as most places don’t have chicken on the bone.

  35. ArtieG says...
