La Locanda delle Due Suocere

Reviewed By debenico65 - Italy

Friendly and efficient staff welcomes you and takes care of everything you need until you are fully (in all senses!) satisfied with the fresh food they serve: hand-made breadsticks, tasty appetizers and delicious main courses, where gorgonzola is always present with a touch of originality in all the items of the rich menu.
Reasonable price for a very good quality service and food in a clean and cosy place, a sort of balmy oasis in the middle of a depressed suburban area.

Reviewed By ClumsyKid161

The stir fried noodles are awesome. Sushi is not that bad. Tonkatsu came with the totally wrong sauce. Peking duck tastes good. It was a nice meal but after that I suffered from the terrible side effect of monosodium glutamate(MSG). The dehydration was so bad and I had been thirsty real bad, plus swollen eyes effect in the next morning.

Circolo della Paniscia

Reviewed By opossumd - Cervo, Italia

Abundant and tasty, it is typical of the Piedmontese tradition, with 'paniscia', the entrée, being a very rich concoction of rice with beans and pork rind. It was preceded by a communal platter of traditional hors-d'oeuvres, and followed by three different types of stew, including beef and donkey, accompanied by polenta. Home-made desserts included bonet and panna cotta. The wine was served from carafe. Reasonably priced and very satisfying.

La Sorgente

Reviewed By Michelle M

We were pleasantly surprised at this restaurant, a little out of town but close to our B and B. Ordered both Italian and Indian dishes. The pasta portion was huge and when the Indian tandoori dish came out it contained 5 pieces of chicken!!! We had enough food for 4 people, we were only 2!!!!! Can't beat the prices! Our waiter was so nice!Highly recommended!

Ristorante Convivium

Reviewed By Spacepuffin

We went as a 30-strong group. The restaurant coped really well with a variety of dietary requirements, adapting the 7-course set menu as necessary. The vegetarian options were mainly the standard dishes with the meat removed and lacked a bit of imagination.
The desert options were great, varied and fun. The risotto was also delicious.

Da Ismail

Reviewed By Epicureanist - Novara, Italy

The first time we ate at this small restaurant, I was so impressed that I felt it was too good to be true.
So we went back again, expecting to be less fortunate. It was even better than the first time! The owner and staff are very friendly and helpful, the menu is genuine and varied, with vegetarian options. Not just the usual "grilled meat and salad" that can be so boring. The freshly baked bread is the best I have tasted in any restaurant in Italy, so light, irresistible.
Prices are competitive, the range of drinks is better than average. Only the speed of service can be slow, but good things come to those who wait.

Clover Irish Pub

Reviewed By Neil H - Herstmonceux, United Kingdom

Strange that an Irish Pub is rated No 1 on Trip Advisor ahead of Italian restaurants but The Clover is very good. The atmosphere is excellent and a great place to meet people when travelling alone. The Burgers are really tasty and the choice extensive. You can even have Venison or Horse Burgers with all sorts of trimmings.
There is a great choice of beers on draught but no Italian beers which as a tourist i would appreciate. However this place is well worth a visit.

Reviewed By debenico65 - Italy

Ideal place for a family lunch. Relaxed atmosphere, friendly staff, good and tasty food inspired from Piemontese tradition: tapulon (donkey and horse meat), paniscia (local speciality of rice) and bonnet (mousse of chocolate and amaretto biscuit). Reasonable price.

Zafran

Reviewed By debenico65 - Italy

Smiling and extremely kind staff welcomes you on top of a steep staircase at a stone's throw from the town centre and the railway station.
Three possible menus: one for vegetarians, one for meat lovers and one for fish eaters...all tasty and not diffcult to digest.
Service is quick in a relaxed atmosphere, where orange is the new black, thanks to the orange curtains, the orange napkins and curry present practically in all dishes..yummy!
Prices are reasonable (it is not a "all you can eat", of course!) and at the end of the meal liquors are complimentary together with a choice of bracelets for the women guests!

Panacea Bistrot

Reviewed By Graham U - Liverpool, United Kingdom

Novara was pretty empty at lunchtime that Sunday, so we asked a group of Italians, clearly local people, where we could find a nice place to eat. They invited us to tag along to where they were headed themselves - this Bistrot, and we each enjoyed one of the best light lunches of our week. I had a seafood starter with huge prawns on shell, and Graham ordered a pasta dish (I cannot remember what) but I can tell you that he hunted in his wallet yesteray for the receipt because he was so anxious to pass on the good news...
