Novara Restaurant

I recently celebrated my friend's birthday over lunch at this restaurant and opted for the set lunch menu. The cod dish I ordered was absolutely delicious! The overall value for the meal, along with the ambiance and decor of the restaurant, exceeded my expectations. Solid choice every time.

I was here 12:45pm, 3/18/24. The food was delicious. My mom ordered off the restaurant week menu. My mom had no complaints and would definitely come back. She loved her canoli.

I ordered the lamp lollipops, the chicken broccoli pizza, caramel cream dessert and I got the stand with me drink.

The lamb was delicious. It wasn't overly fatty, and it was seasoned too perfection!! It came with 4 pieces, which I was pretty pleased about. I would definitely come back for these. The pizza was 4.8 stars out of 5, it could have used a lil black pepper and garlic on the pizza, but it was still an absolute hit. The size of the pizza was large, especially for one person, which I loved because I got to take some home. My drink also tasted great. The caramel cream was a custard, basically flan and it was so good. I wanted more because it was absolutely delicious.

The food came out very fresh and in a reasonable amount of time. Our waiter was kind and helpful.

Highly recommend. A 5 star experience!!!

Amazing place! The atmosphere was inviting, comfortable & lively. Very clean and very pleasant staff. The food? Whoa!! Absolutely amazing!! We will be back!

Went in for lunch and sat at the bar. Had a chicken caesar wrap which was excellent. Came with truffle fries.
My friend had a tuna melt served with a house salad and she said it was very good.
Atmosphere is really cool.

What a beautiful restaurant! The atmosphere was warm and inviting. The service was great and the food was delicious.

For appetizers, we shared the foccacia, chicken wings, and lobster bisque. They were all really good portions and very flavorful. I’ve never had lobster bisque that had so many pieces of lobster in it!

For entrees, my 2 kiddos enjoyed their kids Mac and cheese and chicken fingers. My husband and I both got steak- he got the steak and shrimp special and I got the rib eye. Everything was cooked perfectly! The restaurant also has an extensive drink menu. My husband got an old fashioned. I love drinks with a little bit of a kick…so I really liked their “Some like it hot” cocktail. We had a lot of trouble deciding what to get because everything sounded so good!

I sent a picture of the menu to my good friend who is a vegan. She is always in search of restaurants who have vegan options. Novara offers pizzas made with vegan cheese! I can’t wait to go back and bring her there!

Quick review:
Pros: food is astounding, the decor and building are unique, the staff is so kind
Cons: it's a tad bit more expensive but not much more than your average restaurant.

Long review,
This building used to be a theater and they've kept the spirit alive in their decor. It's a beautiful building with so much natural light. Wonderful movie posters decorate the walls and old silent movies play on a big screen. It's a gorgeous ambiance.
The food is fantastic. We went for a Sunday brunch. The breakfast pizza was to die for. Everything we ordered was wonderful. Not a single bad or even mediocre order. It was all well prepared, delicious, and perfect size. All of us were so happy with the orders.
The staff and our waitresses were so kind. No bad things about our restaurant.

Amazing food! Amazing service! Being gluten and dairy free it can be challenging at times to eat out. But I was pleasantly surprised that they had quite a few options available and even made a dairy-free lobster risotto for me! It was so delicious! Will definitely be back!

We were here for Dine Out Boston and had the 3 course lunch. I'm not a big Caesar salad person but it was great. Chicken parm and salted caramel gelato were both excellent, and everyone was very friendly.

Visited for the first time during restaurant week and I was pleasantly surprised. The ambiance was a nice blend of rustic & chic. Wasnt a big fan of the dine out menu, they could have assembled a way better representation of what they offer. The drinks were great, definitely recommend their signature lemon tuscan ( you can easily drink 2 or 3 before you leave). Seafood scampi was out of this world . The chef definitely took a page out of Gordon Ramsey's book, simple done well. There was no trying to reinvent the wheel. I would definitely go here again. Side note - you can buy the lemon tuscan to go and don't be deterred by the smell of freshly blown dry hair as you walk in - there is a salon next door.

Novarra has a great atmosphere, and the perfect place to drop in for drinks celebrate the end of your work day or week. We visited from out of town and met up with friends and family. Loved the cocktails, platters, and fun staff.

How do I give this place 10 stars???? I have eaten lobster rolls forever and never have I ever had a lobster roll this big and delicious in my life! Like there literally must have been 3 lobsters worth of meat in there. The drinks were so good and strong (wow 😳😳😳)! We had the fig & prosciutto pizza and it was the best pizza ever (& we are NYer pizza snobs). The staff was so incredibly sweet. Can not wait to come back here.

Dining at Novara Restaurant in Milton, MA was an absolute treat! From the moment I stepped in, the cozy ambiance and friendly staff made me feel right at home. The food was outstanding, with each dish bursting with flavor—I can't wait to go back and try more from their menu.

We made a reservation with the Manager, Jason for a Family luncheon following a service for my dear Mother. The restaurant is absolutely stunning with a transitional style of elegance. A beautiful elongated bar in the center of the dining area. We sat in a private dining room with French doors with a beautiful antique mantle decorated for a Christmas shoot in Architectural Digest.
The Staff was impeccable!
The food was truly scrumptious with vast array of dishes from pasta to meat, fish, chicken etc.
Italian deserts, gelato were decadent!! Gluten free pasta available on request.
We had wonderful experience and highly recommend dining here for special occasions and dining.
Thank you Jason!

Amazing time with family and friends. 100% recommended, amazing atmosphere, even better food and drinks

Honestly if Google allowed I would have given more stars!! The food was tasty, phenomenal and affordable. The service was top-notch and the atmosphere is beautiful.....

Novara was by far one of my family's favorite new places. I have a picky 17 year old and he absolutely loved everything. During our 4 day trip to Boston we ate here twice. All he kept talking about the entire weekend was their Calamari 😋. The service was top notch, they were soo attentive!!! The restaurant itself was very nice and very clean. ( including the ladies room) We lucked out and had the same server both times and she was fabulous. Their Sunday Brunch definitely gives a new definition of steak and eggs 😋. Oh and to top it off they have a huge flat screen TV playing New Kids on the Block ❤.....such a bonus. My family and I will definitely be back soon. Thank you!!!

Today was my first time here...Can't say I was disappointed...Place was Huge as hell..I sat Outside which was super cute..Music made it more of a Vibe....My Salad was tasty..The Oysters were delicious, My Sparkling Rose tasted Amazing. I Shall be back..

What a wonderful dining experience! I came from out of town and went with 2 of my girlfriends and we truly enjoyed EVERY BITE! The lambchop lollipops and the wings were DEVINE! We ordered multiple items to pick off of and were happy with everything and the portions were great! I highly recommend and when I come to visit again I will bring my husband as well.

Came here for the first time to celebrate my birthday and was not disappointed! It’s a beautiful restaurant and we had a table on their patio and the atmosphere was very enjoyable. The pasta is homemade and delicious! We only had a small issue with the raw oysters but they quickly fixed that, no problem. Service was friendly and fast. I would definitely come back!

So much fun tonight! Great food, ambience and service! Recently moved to the area and we have been trying out different restaurants. Wonderful experience! We had an adjustment to our initial reservation number and gratefully it was not a problem. Great time! Will definitely return.
