    Nice to have a decent sit-down kosher restaurant. We had their mushroom soup. Unfortunately, too salty! The red snapper was quite excellent. And we loved the "corn ribs"! A very inventive take on corn on the cob. But the tuna steak was cooked a bit too long and was a bit dry. Overall, though, the two of us had a very pleasant luncheon.

    Place has a decent ambience, but some items are way overpriced. Two average scoops of sherbet dessert was a whopping $14. Some items like a brownie is $17

    It was refreshing to eat out at a restaurant that demonstrates respect for food and for the clientele. My friend asked for a specialty cocktail not on the menu. The staff responded graciously and delivered. My only qualm was that the gelato was a bit too tame. Otherwise, the dishes were wonderfully prepared, plated, and served. Thank you for a very nice evening.

    I’ve been to Nuovo many times and have always appreciated the quality of the food, service, and ambiance. This experience was the first time I had been that the service was not up to par with my previous experiences. We waited about 15 minutes to order, and that was only after I finally asked someone for help. It also took about 25 minutes to get boxes for leftovers, which I also asked for. Management really was amazing, and so apologetic in the situation. My family is just grateful to eat kosher food out, so it was not the end of the world, but we did appreciate that he came over to talk with us and apologize. The food was very good, and that made up for all of the other challenges. The only thing we were sad about was that the apple pie was a little cold… it still tasted DELISH!

    We were a party of 13 and appreciated the set-up in the small dining area. However, the service was not up to par since the food was not served at the same time, and four people were served later than the rest of us, and two of the four even later. Making payments took almost as long as the meal. Music came on during our visit, and it was very loud and disturbing. No complaints about the food even though the prices are on the high side.

    All the appetizers and salad were outstanding! Dessert was my least favorite. But the specialty coffee drinks are delectable! A must try for anyone looking for a wonderful food experience. The service was excellent, very attentive and responsive. We’re very gracious about special requests not on menu. Overall a top notch establishment!

    The food is never a disappointment at Nuovo. We also like that they try new things and ask for diner feedback. The blackened salmon could not have been cooked and seasoned any better. We tried the cheese platter for an appetizer this time. Amazing.

    Overpriced, even knowing it's a kosher kitchen. Food lacked seasoning and was poorly made. Service was distant and unresponsive, dishes came out incorrect. With so many good pasta and fish restaurants around, there's zero reason to pay this much for an experience this underwhelming.
