Came for an early dinner, our waiter was super nice and welcoming. He was the only person working the bar and tables . It was just us and another table so the wait was not bad at all. The table, buster was quick and continuously came to us to clean up and fill our waters. The food was absolutely delicious, we got fried calamari for appetizer , minestrone soup and a salad, spaghetti fra diavolo, rigatoni boscaiola, farfalla al samone. Everything was delicious however the spaghetti fra diavolo with the calamari was a tad fishy . Much different than the fried appetizer. We definitely will come back again.

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

The only thing better than our dinner was the service, and our dinner should have cost three times more. And to top it off, my wife is a vegetarian with allergies and it was no problem. They changed ingredients in dishes for her and our entire family left happy and full... and sad that we live 850 miles away. We are here for a week and we'll be back every day.

Stepping into this small Italian Nuova restaurant felt like entering a warm embrace. While the decor leans towards a more traditional style rather than a sleek, modern aesthetic, this actually contributed to the wonderfully family-friendly and inviting atmosphere. It felt comfortable and lived-in, in the best possible way. The menu was a delight to explore – truly vivid and full of tempting options. The specials on offer were particularly enticing. We decided to start with two appetizers, and both were fantastic. The burrata with arugula was fresh and creamy, a classic done well. The "meat in eggplant" was a more unique and equally delicious offering. We also shared the farfale with salmon, which was another highlight. Considering the quality of the food, the two appetizers, one main course and a couple of glasses of wine, a bill under $90 with the tip felt very reasonable. Our server was another positive aspect of the experience. They were knowledgeable about the menu and carried themselves with a confident and helpful demeanor. Overall, this Italian Nuova restaurant offers a charming and welcoming environment with delicious food and attentive service at a good value. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and are definitely considering a return visit.
