Our Story

About Us

Nate's Italian Kitchen is a local, family-owned restaurant in Tucson known for its New York and New Jersey-style Italian cuisine and exceptionally large portions. Opened in 2021 by chef Nate Martin, the restaurant quickly became an "overnight sensation" through word-of-mouth reviews, often resulting in lines of customers waiting for its massive, shareable plates. Counter Service: order and pay at the counter before being seated; staff then deliver the food and provide table-side attention.

Staff was more than amiable & quite busy. Enjoyed talking to friends over the bread & pasta salad served while we were waiting for our meals. Portions were huge, enabling most of us to take home 1/2 or more.

This by far has been one of the most authentic Italian restaurants I've ever been to. It's quaint and has a true Italian feel to it.
