Nado Republic at 1007 C Avenue in Coronado is an Italian restaurant and wine bar led by Chef Giorgio Corletti, a Rome-trained cook who worked under two-Michelin-star kitchens in Italy before launching restaurants in San Francisco and relocating to Coronado Island. The menu builds on Corletti's Neapolitan pizza training and Roman pasta technique — gnocchi Asiago truffle, seven-layer lasagna, pappardelle Bolognese, and rigatoni boscaiola anchor a handmade pasta roster — sharing the C Avenue commercial block with Swaddee Thai Restaurant in the same plaza. The interior channels Old Hollywood with a disco ball over velvet teal and deep-red barstools, a retro checkered floor, gothic-style lamps, and faux roses creating a deliberately eclectic atmosphere that reads more cocktail lounge than standard trattoria. A selected wine list and full cocktail bar stock the back wall, and the garden-like outdoor patio extends seating into C Avenue's pedestrian zone — a dinner-and-drinks format that feeds the pre-show crowd heading to Lamb's Players Theatre on Orange Avenue. The kitchen fires a commercial pizza oven for Neapolitan-style pies alongside a dedicated pasta station rolling fresh dough for each dinner service, with vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free penne substitutions available across the full pasta menu.
