• Mediterranean • Northvale
Booked 15 times today
From its humble beginnings in the quaint Hudson River town of Piermont, New York, Olar was known for serving up rustic Neapolitan pies, classic Spanish tapas, and hand crafted pastas that drew in both locals and foodies from all parts of New Jersey, upstate New York, and New York City and kept them coming back for over a decade.Now in its new location in Northvale, New Jersey, the restaurant, now known as Olar Noso - which means "our home" in Galego, the language spoken in Galicia where the Dominguez family is from - is an evolution in not only name alone.They have managed to scale the restaurant concept generously while replicating the quality and preserving the reputation the former Olar had garnered over the years. Evolving into Olar Noso meant giving Olar's loyal customers everything they loved, while also enhancing their experience with more seating, more elbow room, a full bar, a private event space, and, finally, ample parking.

    Overall, it was decent, not exceptional. Service was great. Good timing between apps & main course, which is always nice. Calamari was a little tough & no legs (a favorite) Ceasar salad was nice (big) short rib ravioli was bland, sauce was too sweet. Bari (rigatoni with shrimp,mushrooms & spinach was delicious (all loved it) even brought some home. Gnocchi was delicious as well. Good spot, byob. Oh yeah focaccia w/ pesto was fantastic. Worth the experience. And a return visit.
