La NonnaB

3400 N Lawndale Ave, Chicago, IL 60618 · Argentinian restaurant · Avondale

Cozy neighborhood Argentinian spot with standout empanadas and milanesa, fair prices, BYOB, but service speed and occasional overcooked meats can frustrate.

The verdict

La Nonna delivers solid neighborhood dining with strong food quality anchored by exceptional empanadas and generous milanesa plates, but inconsistent execution—particularly variable steak doneness and uneven service attention—prevents a higher grade. The cozy patio setting, BYOB policy, and fair portions make it a reliable casual choice for Argentinian comfort food, though service speed during peak hours and occasional meat preparation issues temper the experience.

One caveat: Service delays are a recurring theme; some waits exceeded 60 minutes during busy periods
