Went for our anniversary dinner yesterday. Service was great, particularly Adam. He was so funny and helpful. Food was delicious, cocktails were great and the wine that was recommended to go with dinner was perfect. Will definitely be back again.

First time there and I can say with certainty I will be back over and over again! Food was incredible, the staff were so accommodating (we arrived with an extra member to our party that we didn’t know we’d have) and they made it work! Fantastic night and very affordable for what you get!

Top class Italian food with a twist. Incredible flavours, excellent drinks menu, beautiful fit out. Great staff. Only minor but a 3rd scallop would be amazing on the starter dish, it was incredible. Every course was a winner. Nova clearly know how to market and run a quality restaurant and hats off to them.

Went last night, food was lovely but felt the portions could have been slightly bigger with the pasta. My wife had the chicken parmesan and I feel that it needed something on the side more than the salad it had (a nicer Ceaser salad would have even done). Desert was beautiful (tiramisu). Maple old fashioned was lovely and the smoke carried through. Service the staff serving us were lovely and friendly but there was some form of error with our order and meant we did have to wait a while to get our starters while tables beside us got multiple dishes. Atmosphere was nice and quite. I feel we would come back and would recommend this spot but would feel the need to order an extra side with dinner or try something different as a main.

A great variety on the menu, and everything was full of flavour. The starters were absolutely delicious, and the portions were generous — you definitely won’t leave hungry! The mains were fantastic too — beautifully cooked and full of authentic Italian taste. A perfect spot for anyone who loves good food and warm, welcoming vibes. Drinks were great too! Good selection.
