    Our group of six has a great experience. Everyone from the hostess to the waiter to the manager were making sure we were taken care of. Good value for the excellent meals we had. Definitely planning to be back.

    Arugula salad was tasteless and drenched in olive oil. Fennel was too thick to cut and eat. Salmon was smelly and small and too salty for $14 as a salad addition. Won’t be going back.

    We celebrated a birthday with 11 people, making for a large table. Half the guests are new to Antica Nova. Everyone loved it and will return. It is tough to serve this many people at one table. Our waiter, Scott, handled it like a pro. Anthony, the manager, set up the party, another pro who is an expert in running a restaurant; we love him. The food, drinks, and birthday cake were all fantastic. This was our 6th visit, and we can't wait to return. If you need a cake for your party, order one from Antica Nova. It is huge. This restaurant setting is the most impressive in the tri-county.

    Dined there for Christmas Eve. Fixed menu but plenty of options. Food was delicious. Service was a little slow but I preferred that to feeling rushed. It was a lovely way to enjoy a holiday family meal.

    This was my first visit, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. We came on Christmas Eve where they were serving a four course meal. Each of the courses had some selections to choose from. I found the waiter to be charming, knowledgeable and professional. The presentation of each course were excellent and the taste did not disappoint. We had arrived early, so it was very quiet and even at peak it was still a nice ambience.

    This is my second review, and as I said the last time, this place is so good I am afraid I won't be able to get in as word gets out. The service has been fantastic, and the food excellent. My elderly mother doesn't love much of anything any more, but ate every bite on her plate! This is becoming a regular stop in my household.

    We will NOT be returning We were seared in what felt like a “coat closet ” absolutely ridiculous. Clearly disconnected from the restaurant. Reservations were made one week in advance to celebrate a birthday (noted on the reservation). I would be surprised if this place survives and doesn’t change names/owners again. Food is mediocre at best.a true disappointment. On a positive note; our waiter was nice.
