" Cafe Nova is bliss! The menu has such a wide range of Mediterranean dishes, and everything we ordered was phenomenal. The atmosphere feels both lively and relaxed, and it was great to have dinner outdoors. The only downside was that the server seemed a bit flustered during peak hours, which is normal. We can't wait to go back—highly recommend it! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Cafe Nova for a family dinner and had a good time. The ambiance is calming and perfect for a casual evening. The food was fresh and delicious, especially the lamb dishes. However, the service was a bit on the slower side, which was frustrating. Still, we plan to come back. " (*Curated Review*)

" Great place to dine! The food quality is amazing, especially the lamb chops which were tender and juicy. The service staff are commendable; everyone seemed well-trained and friendly. I also enjoyed their homemade desserts which were delectable. The only downside was limited parking, but once you get in, it’s definitely a treat! " (*Curated Review*)

" Cafe Nova is an enchanting little place! The food was authentic and bursting with flavor. I loved the Greek salad with fresh feta and olives. The servers were very friendly and welcoming. I was seated quickly, but it took a while for our food to arrive, which was disappointing. I can overlook this as the food was worth the wait. I'll be back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a wonderful meal here last night. The halloumi salad was perfect—fresh, tangy, and flavorful. The decor was lovely, giving it a nice Mediterranean flair. Unfortunately, the service was slow, which surprised me since it wasn't busy. I will graduate my rating if my next visit is smoother. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently tried Cafe Nova and was very pleased! The atmosphere is relaxing, and I was particularly impressed by the vast menu. I tried the shrimp moussaka, which was a pleasant surprise. My only complaint was the slow service—there were some long waits. That said, the food outweighed the downsides. I will definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved my meal at Cafe Nova! The service was flawless, and the wait staff made excellent recommendations. I tried the grilled vegetables and toasted pita as an appetizer, followed by the delicious spanakopita. The atmosphere was lively, with lovely decorations enhancing the Mediterranean vibe. Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)
