Nonni's Bistro, Scandinavian Restaurant in Pleasanton

Nonni's Bistro, Scandinavian Restaurant in Pleasanton

A chef’s journey, served with soul

Chef Jon Magnusson founded the restaurant on the belief that hospitality begins with humility, gratitude, and a genuine connection to the people at the table. His cooking reflects classical training, a life of travel, and years spent turning neighborhood dining rooms into places with real character. That outlook comes through in food and service that feel skilled, gracious, and deeply personal.

Refined ease and a casual bistro mood combine here, with sidewalk tables, great cocktails, and a menu that includes seafood, French onion soup, grilled fresh salmon, and comforting brunch favorites. It has the feel of a place made for real conversation, genuine warmth, and the kind of character that stands out among Pleasanton restaurants.
