Happiest Kids’ Meals at Nana

Being a family-run restaurant named after the family matriarch, Maria “Nana” Solis, it makes sense that the homey Bridgeport haven would offer a stellar kids’ menu. It’s the type of restaurant where the whole family can gather and feel right at home, and while adults chow down on Latin-inspired, locally sourced brunch, lunch, and dinner, the younger brood can partake in the restaurant’s new kids’ menu.

The overarching goal for the kids’ menu at Nana was to offer young diners options that are healthy, wholesome, comforting, and delicious. The restaurant sources as many ingredients as it can from farms within 300 miles, and what they can’t get locally they purchase from certified organic purveyors. So this is undoubtedly a place where parents can feel good about feeding their offspring. Plus, since Nana herself has three grandkids, she knows what it is to please children, feed them well, and make them feel at home in her restaurant.

While many kids’ menus can be bland and trite, Nana went for more choices and more excitement, amplifying their selections to include 10 options on an illustrious menu on which kids can color and doodle and complete games and fill-in-the-blanks. In the morning, kids choose from scrambled eggs, teddy bear pancakes, and mini French toast. Come lunch and dinner, options expand to grilled quesadillas, grilled peanut butter and jam, mini burgers, buttered noodles, mac & cheese, and more. Most come with a side of either home fries or fruit, the latter of which is sourced locally and seasonally.
