We dine here often and with good reason. The consistency for all the categories you ask about on the survey are always over the top. The staff, the venue, the FOOD and the prices are all great. This owner has other restaurants in the area and it is the same experience at any of them when we visit. So if you’re local - stay local and try this gem. And if you’re not local - it is worth a trip!

Food was outstanding and the service terrific. Enjoyed mushrooms, meatballs and cauliflower as appetizers. All were plentiful and delicious. Entrees were outstanding - scampi, short ribs and chicken piccata. Shared cannolis, banana pudding and biscotti for dessert. All were scrumptious. I would highly recommend Novara to others.
