Phenomenal food... nothing in the area even comes close. Outstanding. Homemade pasta, bread, gourmet everything. Every dish is great especially seafood pasta dishes and the pizzas... I love the crust!!!!!
We stopped by this place on a Sunday evening and it was packed. We took that as a good sign and we were right. We had to sit at the bar because the wait was 2+ hours. Sounds like reservations are the way to go. We started with the arancini and complimentary ciabatta bread and both were fabulous. I had the gnocchi which was soft and pillowy and delicious. My partner had a pizza which was also fabulous. Save room for dessert though! We had two different types of their homemade gelato and both were great, but the standout was the fresh mint. We definitely will be back the next time we are in Georgia.
I tried to eat here about a year ago, but there was over an hour wait. This time, I had a reservation and was seated right away. There's definitely a very local vibe here. Lots of people know each other and seem to be regulars. The food is fantastic so I'm not surprised! My spaghetti was ok, but the flatbread, the salad, and the gelato were all delicious! The star is really the pizza capricciosa that I took home though! Will definitely have to go back just for the pizza!
This place is definitely worth the hype! I have driven by this place a couple of times and always noticed how busy it is and definitely recommend putting in a reservation even for a weekday night. There was a long line out the door to get a table but luckily it moved fast. After we were seated, my friend and I decided to start of with calamari which was perfectly fried and seasoned well. It also paired well with the marinara sauce. For my main meal, I went with the Tortelloni ai carcofi which was very delicious! I loved how light the butter sauce was and how flavorful the dish was while not being super overpowering. I was looking forward to try their vegetarian lasagne, but they had changed their menu recently and took it off. Overall, I was happy with the service and how nice our waiter was with checking in to make sure that our food came out how we intended it to be. We even had the hostess check on us for a few times to make sure everything was okay. They have indoor and outdoor seating and really liked the ambiance of this place. They also offer takeout meals as well. I look forward to coming back and trying one of their pizzas next!
We love this place the deconstructed lasagna is awesome and the mushrooms and pasta are exceptional. Always great service
Saturday lunch visit with a small group of friends. There's a great little patio in the front with heat lamps and feel private considering it's next to the parking. There's a great dining room that feels like a sunroom with windows all around, bringing in lots of light. We ordered calamari, linguine with clams, salad, gnocchi, lasagna bolognese, and we all had gelato desserts! The whole experience was great - everyone loved their food! I ordered the linguine and saw that multiple people had ordered this dish at the restaurant. It did not disappoint as the clams were juicy and fresh - there were so many! I loved the Calabrian pepper in the sauce with the perfect amount of spice . Weekend lunch time was a mix of people who were a little dressed up, but also people in shorts so the vibe is pretty relaxed. I imagine this is a cute date night spot in the evenings
I absolutely love this restaurant, no matter the season. It's possible to get same day reservations and the inside sunroom is the best option for winter months and later fall months. In the sunroom you'll find a heater by each table which add to the ambiance. My favorite go to dishes are the Lasagnette alla Vegetariana, Margherita Pizza, Vegetariana Pizza, and the Shrimp Alfredo. Every dish is always hot you can see the steam coming off your food. The Alfredo is creamy, the shrimp are cooked to perfection no where have I found Alfredo Pasta better than Novo. Lasagnette alla vegetariana is full of flavor with the variety of vegetables you honestly you won't miss or need any meat or protein in this dish. Before you leave you must have the Gelato icecream it's original to this restaurant and it's authentic.
I have lost the count of even how many times I have beeen to this place. This is an amazing place. Let's start with the food first: we mostly have a set menu, we start with margarita pizza and before you think it's just a pizza- it's heaven, so fresh and full of flavors. Then in main course we order Tagliatelle ai Funghi- this is so delicious, white sauce is not overly cheesy and right amount. Also, we get Risotto Mantecato which is caramelized onion risotto, it's great with slight sweetness, not my favorite but my husband likes it (Last time we ordered it I felt rice was a tad less cooked) . The other risotto is Risotto ai Funghi - like it so much! The mushrooms and sauce is yum. For dessert - we get tiramisu- it's little more creamy than usual, it's nice would nothing super extraordinary but omg gelatos they have are amazing! My favorite is pistachios. Service: this varies, we have gotten from very extraordinary services to average service. Never got bad service Ambiance - super nice. Relaxing and not super fancy. People dress mostly casual. If you are in this area defiantly try it out. One tip: for dinner never go without reservation- you will be disappointed otherwise.
First off, amazing bread! It has a nice crust with a good chew, but the inside is still so soft. I really like that they just give you olive oil and you can add as much or as little salt and pepper as you want. The calamari is was also delicious! It wasn't oily, the breading was super light, and the squid wasn't rubbery at all. My personal favorite dish we tried was the mushroom risotto. This is a go-to dish for mushroom lovers! The flavor is so rich and it comes out all hot and creamy, I highly recommend! The rigatoni alla salsiccia was also really good but I didn't care too much for it. Not to say it tasted bad, but it just didn't really stand out to me. The pasta was cooked perfectly though!
