“ I've been living in Rome for the past 10 years and it's very hard to find food this good even in the capital city where the owner and her family is originally from (Rome). The food is absolutely amazing and it's made with passion in every single detail. The staff are all so welcoming and super friendly. I definitely recommend Bar Novanta to anyone craving some authentic Italian (Real roman) food. Arrivederci Roma ???????????????? ”
“ Everything and more,,, we went for the first time a month ago and have been weekly ever since. Our new go to place and they never disappoint. The staff are amazing and welcome you like family. It’s been years since I’ve been able to enjoy food due to ill health and this is the first time I felt the joy again from food. From a foodie perspective it’s been hell but one spoonful of the lasagna revived and reignited that fire and passion for food and sent my tastebuds into overdrive. I can’t stress how amazing this place is the food, the desserts and the staff. ”

“ The service here is incredible. Very friendly waitress/owner who was very excited I was also a coeliac. The food was delicious. Whilst I don’t live in the area I’d honestly make a special trip to come, just because I felt so welcomed and cared for and that’s the sort of business I like to support! ”
“ We had Spagetti frutti di Mare and pizza at Bar Novanta and everything was delicious! The food was fresh, full of flavour, and beautifully presented. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming — perfect for a casual dinner. The staff were friendly and attentive, making the whole experience even better. Highly recommend for anyone who loves great Italian food! ”
“ The place is nice, and the staff members are extremely friendly. We went for some pizzas that were decent but a bit too oily and not very flavourful. Other dishes they have such as pasta dishes seemed to be more interesting though. ”
“ We had my Dad's birthday dinner here tonight, the staff were so friendly and accommodating to gluten free diets at our table. There were only three items on the extensive menu that couldn't be made gluten free! The staff made our night so comfortable and enjoyable, and were totally on top of bringing out dessert with a candle, and playing Happy Birthday on the speakers for us. We will definitely be returning! ”
“ My family and l went to dinner at Bar Novanta on Tuesday night because, l admit, l didn't want to cook on my birthday!!! This place had been recommended to us and l am so glad that we decided to come here. Everything was delicious We started off with the Bruschetta & Bocconcini and it was a perfect way to commence the meal because it was so fresh and light. My son was feeling adventurous so he ordered the Squid Ink Fettuccine with Calamari & Prawns. He absolutely loved it and was so grateful that it came with some warm bread so that you could mop up the beautiful sauce at the bottom of the plate. I had the Gnocchi with mushrooms in a creamy Gorgonzola Sauce..... OMG! I was in heaven..... the Gnocchi were little pillows of bliss but as delicious as they were, l had to ask my sons to help me finish them because the serving was HUGE! My other son and husband ordered pizzas and what can l say..... they were both very happy We didn't get to try any dessert because we had a birthday cake waiting at home but we will definitely have some next time we come. Not only was the food amazing here, but so were the staff. We were greeted and farewelled by the two beautiful Front of House staff Barbara & Daniela. These gorgeous sisters made our evening so pleasant and relaxing and went out of their way to ensure that my meal was nut free when l pointed out that l had an allergy to Almonds. I am definitely not waiting for my next birthday to eat here again. The food is too good to wait that long!!! ”
