A very good restaurant with overall good service and food. More

Novella's special menu is perfect for familys. The pasta was the right amount of food, and delicious too. On a warm day the street side open air dining was a great relaxing location for a quick well crafted meal. We sampled the ala vodka and Alfredo pasta, both were perfect! More

The good: it's pretty inexpensive, especially if you go with their $10 special (I dare you to drink the "wine" they give you with it- I would not even use that to cook with...) The bad: well, the FOOD!!! The ugly (if you are a tourist, that is): realizing that you may not have many dinners as a tourist in... More

Do not come to this place with high expectations. If you are a pizza lover this is not the place for you.

Had a great meal here last weekend. They have a great $10 special with soda or glass of wine, which brought us into the place. I ordered the Margharita Pizza which was fantastic, and my wife enjoyed her pasta. Tables are kinda close, and we practically within a foot of the table next to us(they happened to be from the...

My friends and I were starving, and when we saw the "Entree and a glass of wine for $10" sign, we were in this restaurant in a heartbeat. We were pleasantly surprised at what a great experience it was. I got fettuccine alfredo that rivaled my mother's (which is saying a lot), and everyone else said that their pasta was... More
