We all give Staten Island a hard time about not actually being a borough. And for the average New Yorker or tourist, there isn’t much to the place besides a fun, free ferry ride. But somehow I dig deep enough into the internet to find Enoteca Maria, or Nonnas of the world, a wonderful little treasure located in the snubbed borough. Nonnas of the world is the brain child of owner Joe Scaravella, who actually works at the restaurant. One of the OG nonnas, Maria Gialanella, walks around the restaurant giving you the softest, warmest grandma hugs and telling you stories of her native Italy in beautiful broken English. While the concept started out strictly as Italian nonnas, grandmothers from all over the world serve up comfort food, using recipes handed down through their families. The night we came, we had Haitian ratatouille by nonna Kay, as well as a bento box by the Japanese nonna. We also had meatballs from the original Italian menu. The meal is preceded by this wicked tasty focaccia bread with pickled veggies. Of note: the menu and the nonna who is cooking rotates and can usually be found on their website. Sometimes the schedule changes unexpectedly. There is always an Italian menu available regardless of the starting nonna. Countries I saw just browsing the site include Sri Lanka, Peru, Trinidad, Bangladesh, Puerto Rico, Turkey, and more. The restaurant is small. Acoustics are terrible, but what are ya gonna do? Reservations highly recommended. Call the number on the site. I’m pretty sure the owner took my reservation and said, “see ya then, sweetheart,” which I loved. They are open Friday through Sunday with meal times of 2:30, 5:30, and 7:30. There appears to be a good wine list, with great descriptions, but we didn’t partake. The site is about 3/10 of a mile from the Staten Island ferry terminal. It’s cash or Venmo only and Venmo does add the three percent (or whatever it is) fee. For the large filling meal we had, what amounts to a three course meal, and a couple large bottles of sparkling water, it was about a 100 dollars before tip. Is this the best food you’ll ever have? Maybe not. Is it an experience you’ll never forget? Definitely. Take the free and romantic ferry ride over to the bullied borough and check it out.
