Nonna's, renowned for its culinary innovation, is proud to bring India's first Neapolitan Sourdough Pizzeria to Fergusson College Road in Pune. With two successful locations in Mumbai's Andheri West and Lower Parel, Nonna's now expands to enchant Pune with its authentic Italian flavors.

As you step into Nonna's, you're transported to an inviting Italian Trattoria. This 92-seater restaurant exudes warmth, making it the perfect place to savor genuine Italian cuisine. With an open kitchen design, you get a front-row seat to the art of pizza-making, adding a dash of excitement to your dining experience.

Founded by Ayush Jatia, Nonna's is a culinary journey to Naples, Italy. Their sourdough starter has a rich history dating back to the 18th century, nurtured and celebrated by generations of the Galliano family of Naples.

What sets Nonna's pizza apart is the method. Unlike dough that uses commercially produced yeast for a quick rise, Nonna's dough is naturally fermented for 48 hours using their heirloom "mother dough." It's then baked in a 400°C oven for precisely 90 seconds, locking in natural aroma and moisture, resulting in a light and easily digestible crust.

Nonna's menu is a delight for your taste buds, featuring star dishes like Pizza No. 2, Pizza No.3, and Pizza No. 6, which are crowd favorites. They offer a range of options, from hand-stretched Neapolitan pizzas to fried nibbles, salads, oven-baked starters, and mouthwatering desserts, including their famous Tiramisu.

The beverage selection is equally impressive, featuring wines, Aperol, Campari, and beer thoughtfully curated to complement your meal. What's exceptional about Nonna's is their commitment to accommodating diverse dietary preferences, including offerings for Jains and Vegans. You can also personalize your pizzas to your liking.

At Nonna's, authenticity extends to their ingredients, which are a blend of imported and local items, creating a symphony of flavors that transport you to Italy with every bite.

Ayush Jatia, the founder, says, "Nonna's has embarked on a mission to bring Pune the ultimate pizza experience, boasting our signature sourdough pizzas with a legacy of a 500-year-old recipe. We believe in crafting exceptional dining experiences, and our passion for perfection shines through our artisanal creations. With a blend of traditional techniques and innovative flavors, we are sure that Pune will love Nonna's as much as it's been adored in Mumbai."

Come to Nonna's to experience pizza in its true, traditional form, and embark on a journey of authentic Italian cuisine.


Midweek, Reimagined: Lyla Bombay Launches Candlelight Singalong Wednesdays

Midweek, Reimagined: Lyla Bombay Launches Candlelight Singalong Wednesdays

Published on April 3, 2026

Two years since opening its doors, Lyla Bombay continues to evolve its identity, this time by turning its focus to something more intimate and experience-driven. Marking its second anniversary, the restaurant introduces Candlelight Singalong Wednesdays, a weekly ritual designed to transform the rhythm of midweek evenings.

Set against the backdrop of Mumbai’s bustling business district, Lyla shifts gears as the sun sets. Lights dim, candlelight takes over, and the space transitions into a setting that feels personal and unstructured. The experience moves beyond the format of a traditional performance, creating an environment where the line between artist and audience softens, allowing guests to become a part of the moment.

The concept sits somewhere between a live music session and a singalong, not quite a concert, not quite karaoke. Instead, it leans into a shared, easy energy where familiar songs fill the room and strangers find connection through music. The result is an atmosphere that feels spontaneous, warm, and quietly electric.

Complementing the experience is Lyla’s thoughtfully curated menu, featuring dishes that balance comfort with indulgence. Standout offerings such as Prawns Moilee, truffle mushroom risotto, and the restaurant’s signature stuffed ravioli add depth to the evening, aligning seamlessly with the relaxed yet elevated tone of the event.

Candlelight Singalong Wednesdays form part of a larger anniversary chapter for Lyla, which also introduces a refreshed, globally inspired all-day dining menu alongside an expanded lineup of weekend experiences. The idea is simple yet intentional, to create a space that adapts to the pace of its guests, whether they arrive for a quiet morning or stay through a lively evening.

With this new offering, Lyla Bombay positions itself not just as a dining destination, but as a space where moments unfold naturally, turning an ordinary Wednesday into something worth returning for.
