What a culinary experience! The imagination of each dish and the presentation of each plate was a joy. I loved the coziness of the restaurant, considering it was a former home. It just felt warm and inviting. We were attended to by JD who guided through the menu. The service was wonderful and attentive. This is a place I will return to anytime I'm in Houston.!! We were lucky to find parking on the street across the entrance. We strongly recommend reservations. read more

Boy I really wanted to like this place but I may be one of the few people in Houston that doesn't. I had reservations for the outside patio and we were immediately greeted by the water boy. He ended up being one of the best aspects of our experience that evening. Our waitress wasn't nearly as good. We started by asking for ice in the water from the waitress since they just give you room temp water. After 10 mins of seeing her serve other tables and ignoring our request, we then figured the water boy would make it happen...and sure enough he did. We then ordered the grilled oysters, which are very lightly cooked, almost seemingly steamed more than anything, but they were very good regardless of the cooking method with the sauces and garnishes and pickle juice added. Next up was ordering the entrees. The menu here is a little strange with numerous vegan choices with strange titles and only a few items with protein. To top it off, there are not many choices period. The waitress explained that the left side is basically the apps, and the right side is basically the entrees. I knew I wanted to try the wagyu flat iron steak which is priced pretty high here, compared to other wagyu flat irons I've had at other restaurants across the US. We couldn't really decide on a 2nd main dish then the waitress mentioned the off the menu special which was a scallop pasta so we picked that thinking it sounded delicious. The entrees come out about 15 mins later, and we take our first bites and we both thought, oh no, if we share the other person across from me isn't going to like this dish because it's too salty. I tried the steak first and noticed the sauce being extra salty, then I tried the pasta and the pasta was way worse, but the scallops didn't seem to be affected. We immediately told the waitress the next time she stopped by....and she just said okay, and walked away. I figured she would go get the manager....but nope...she just kept on serving other tables. At this point we thought to ourselves only the oyster app was decent.....and no reason to look at the dessert menu since we had already spent over $100 on food we could hardly eat. Sure enough, the waitress stops by a 2nd time and asks if we'd like to see the dessert menu. I couldn't leave fast enough and told her we'll skip. Needless to say we both left hungry as the portions were not only not edible, but also fairly small. The water boy also stopped by and offered to turn on the heater if we get cold. Boy, I wish he was our waiter instead. For a supposedly Michelin-starred restaurant, I feel they really got this one wrong. read more

Cool recent experiences with two friends at Nobie's. I came a few years back and the menu was much more limited and the space was much smaller. It was really nice to see the expansion with the full bar and patio but the restaurant still feels very quaint. Our server was very knowledgeable of the menu and made some great recommendations, although she talked a lot and had some odd moments where she came across as slightly dismissive. The drinks were ok but dishes were flavorful and enough to share amongst the three of us. The "entrees" aren't the full sized portions you'd expect but still yummy. I'd return to try more of the menu. read more

Every dish was so unique and innovative! Favs were the crawfish toast, life is pici pasta. Everything was good tho. The pie was not my favorite- they didn't have other pies on the menu that night and this one was just basically Marshmallow fluff with a hard layer of chocolate on the bottom- was not a fan I felt like I was eating a hard hersheys bar. read more

My husband and I have enjoyed several meals here at this point,but our most recent visit was this past Friday. The food varies from good to perfection! We've gotten the dilly bread several times and this appetizer is always perfection! Tonight was no different! The problem is they sell out of this and so you have to make sure you get there early to make sure you don't miss out! lol. The olives are delish with their citrus marinade but tonight they were a bit soggy. Not sure if they sat in the marinade too long or what. They were still good but I like my calvestrano olives to be firm! Now the other dish that blew us away this evening was the vegetarian lasagne!!! WOW!!! It's Smokey with lots of goey cheesy goodness!!! Absolutely I would recommend this and order it again a 100 times over!!! The service here is typically on point! The bar guys are usually fun. I love the atmosphere. It's a little dark but the restaurant is a renovated old house. They play vinyls every night and pick a theme for the night. I've never been disappointed with the music. Such a vibe!!! Here are the downsides to Nobies. It's always busy and so you have to make reservations. And recently they started this thing where you have to put $25 down to make a reservation. I have a rule to not pay for reservations! It seems a bit extreme so my husband and I showed up at 5pm on Friday to secure a spot at the bar. We were the first ones at the bar but also I don't want to have to do this every time I want to go to Nobie's. The food and especially the drinks are PRICEY!!!! I find the pricing for the drinks to be ridiculous honestly but I really want a drink to enhance my food experience so we pay it but I really think they could give a little on that. read more

Amazing food and service! A great rotating seasonal menu and everything we ordered was top notch. Well worth the price. Highly recommend the beef tartare and the pull apart Dilly bread for apps, both were so fresh and addicting and I've never scarfed down apps as quickly as I did with these. Their olive oil cake was also chef's kiss, the handmade chantilly on top was so good - honestly worth making the stop even if you just had the desert here! Only tough spot is the limited street parking since it's situated right on the edge of a residential area, but well worth checking out! read more

Didn't expect the high level of service from this small and intimate restaurant but ---yes we did! Didn't make a reservation so thankful to all who accommodated our party of 10! Top tier staff; servers, food runners, buss staff and Chef were all amazing! My little brother's birthday dinner was a success thanks to their entire staff! The food was delicious but doesn't all come out at once so start with the appetizers which were all pretty great! The star of the show had to be the fish- can't recall what the Chef called it but it was the best thing the table ordered--no wait! The dilly bread was also a table favorite!Thank you for the wonderful experience and for the free dessert for my brother- very thankful for that! read more

This is a nice little neighborhood restaurant that's tucked in a residential area of Montrose. The food is decent - yet another restaurant with shareable small plates, which is the trend these days. Some highlights are the bolognese pasta and all of their pies, otherwise some hits and misses. With that said, I absolutely love the casual yet hip vibe, and the service has always been attentive and friendly. Reservations are preferred if you don't want to wait, but I walk in a lot as a party of two all the time. They have a bar/counter seating as well as outdoor seating. Wine list is excellent. When people come from out of town, it's not necessarily a place I have on my Houston hit list, but given it's walkable from my neighborhood I do find myself coming here from time to time. read more

I can't believe it's taken me this long to eat here but finally made it for Galentine's. Everything was phenomenal. Seriously. Food was delicious and on point. Staff was solid and with a super cool vibe-really enjoyed interacting with them. All the suggestions made were delicious from the carrots to the dilly bread (get two) along with the meatballs and the green lasagne. There were three of us so I wanted one more thing and got the brie and bread with the smoked grapes and I was not sorry. Topped the evening off with a key lime pie because if you've ever made a key lime pie, you know how tedious the work is squeezing all of those tiny little limes. I have respect for key lime pie and refuse to make it again so that's what we got. It was delicious and filling and a fantastic meal. read more

I think I saw this was now a Michelin recommended restaurant or something like that. So I thought what the heck. It was Friday. Halloween night. My kid was trick or treating in her old school area and I needed a place to chill. Her friend's mom worked here. So I called around 6:30 pm and they said no problem to do a walk-in. In fact for the whole hour I was there, it didn't seem crowded at all. I got the dilly bread to start with. It comes with an egg shaped butter which I remember having at another restaurant quite similar to this. Both were ok but nothing special imho. The waiter said they're know for their pastas and recommended the "what's quckalackin?" over the "nonno's pasta", as the latter is a regular item on the menu and can always be had. Well I went with the recommendation but wish I took the staple item. I actually eat duck quite often. But I didn't really care for the duck pieces in this dish, which I found to be quite tough. Pasta was ok. But no wow factor. For desert I chose the peanut butter pie. Again it was good but nothing I'd come running back for. I've actually had better desert elsewhere. And standing alone, I'm not convinced it was worth the $11 price tag. Tip - Check your bill. The line item prices on my bill didn't all match the prices listed on the menu. I do like the ambiance here. That part is quite charming as it's like an old house. But Michelin or not I wouldn't come back for anything in particular. read more

Impromptu date nights are my fav. Honey and I nearly passed Nobies with its unassuming self! We parked next door at the business that was closed (it was closed!) and sat outside bc the music was pretty loud inside. Service was good-great she offered recs and let us keep the mocktail that came out accidentally. We did have to wait a little longer than we would have liked for entrees even though she assured us if we ordered everything at once she'd course it out. Food was delish. Stand out was the olive oil cake. Friggin nommm. Took me awhile to get to nobies but worth the wait. Two word review: impressive mocktails. read more

Atmosphere: It's a casual, bohemian kinda vibe. I heard folks talking that it had be remodeled but it was my 1st visit. Service: Service was top notch! The server was very friendly & knowledgeable of the menu. Immediately approached us about any food allergies. She cleared & refreshed our plates & utensils after the 1st 2 tapas. Food: Cabbage - (8.5/10) was really good it's pan seared & served warm,with a hint of yellow curry flavor. It's complete dairy free but you would not think so. Flavors give Mediterranean vibes. Carroty Kid - (8/10) carrots in a red curry sauce with a spiciness that lingers in the back of your throat. Not overpowering but the spiciness is there. Dill bread- (10/10) it's milk infused milk bread which just means it's soft & yummy with hints of dill flavor. Regulars just sit down & immediately order the bread while looking at the menu. It's a MUST try! Jamon Pork - (6/10) this was my least favorite dish. Unfortunately it came to the table luke warm which wasn't a great start but the flavors were just "ehh". The thin pork slices had a crispy crust which was nice but the rest of the meat & cheese & aioloi sauce just didn't come together for my taste buds. I would not try it again. I feel like you need to have an open or "developed" palate for some of these dishes. The menu has limited entree offerings which is fine but for someone who likes simple flavors they may be challenged to find a dish or perhaps can stick to the pastas or steak options which I didn't try. Parking is basically on the street & extremely limited. So good luck there. read more

10/10! Had the wagyu beef cheeks, fingerling potatoes, oysters and key lime pie for dessert. Incredible meal. So flavorful and the right amount of spices on the potatoes and beef cheeks, balancing the richness with the right amount of acid, leaving me wanting more with every bite. The key lime pie was perfectly balanced and tart, and the crust was buttery and delicious, Bartender Rob was a blast and guided me on all these and made for a great evening! read more

Lovely experience at Nobie's! Not a huge space so reservations definitely recommended. Service is excellent- the wait staff is very kind and people who bring out food are energetic! Dilly bread is an absolutely must- the bread is so soft and fluffy, the dill flavor really comes through, then the butter just sends it over the top. Could eat a whole order by myself. The devil wears paratha was a flatbread filled with chorizo and cheese, crispy exterior and nicely seasoned. Loved the sauce that it came with and the little salad with shrimp. Wouldn't have put these flavors together myself but it works! Nonno's pasta is a classic. The pasta was firmly al dente and the meat sauce was so flavorful but not too salty. Brownie pie is a triumph. At first it looks like a giant dense brownie with its classic brownie top. But it's so fluffy and smooth, light and airy. The crust is like a graham cracker crust and the brownie flavor is perfect. The vanilla flavored cream topping is almost like a marshmallow fluff in texture and makes this pie incredibly memorable. Will absolutely be back!! There are very few spots in the lot so street parking is the best bet. read more

I've been wanting to try nobie's for a while and was very excited to celebrate a close friend's birthday here. Maybe it was my high hopes, but I left pretty underwhelmed by everything I tried. At this price point and bib gourmand recognition quality, I guess I was just expecting better food that I received. Below is a review of the items we ordered: # texas tartare 8/10- this was probably the best dish we had. the tenderloin was nice and chewy and seasoned very well. it was a nice dish paired with sourdough bread #nonno's pasta 7.5/10- i think this was good because I love bolognese, but honestly this dish was very standard and there was nothing special that made it stand out #Whats quackalackin? 6/10- Again, nothing that stood out. Duck and trofie pasta combo was mediocre. there were too many peas in the dish #winner winner chicken dinner 8/10- This massive platter is what I realized most people come to nobie's for. It is a dish that can feed 2-4 people easily and features a juicy fried chicken with an assortment of jams, pickles and pairings to go with the meat. The chicken was good, maybe not mindblowing, but it was juicy and enjoyable. Biggest downside is that it doesnt come with enough truffle sauce. #olive oil cake 8.5/10- i love olive oil cake, and this one was no exception. It was juicy, moist, and nicely crisped on the edges. I probably wouldn't come back to nobies, but it was a memorable dinner to celebrate a close friend's birthday. The interior was dark and moody. read more

I heard so much about Nobie's and I was so excited to finally try it! The ambiance is cozy and intimate, in a small re-imagined house with vinyls playing and a good amount of diner chatter. It's also fairly dark and crowded, so the space was both fun and formal. The food was incredible! Dilly bread - I heard this was a must try, but perhaps it was overhyped in my head because it was good but nothing mind blowing. I think if there were another element of crunch or something texturally different, it would help to break up the incredible softness of the bread (which is good for a few bites!). The dill butter is delicious though, especially with the smoked trout roe on top! Beer battered sweet tots - one of the best dishes of the night. The goat cheese with harissa really seals the deal! What's quackalakin - my personal favorite! Although I'd seen mixed reviews on this, I thought it was outstanding. The pasta was a perfect al dente, the duck was delicious, and the sauce brought every bite together. Flavorful, fun, and unique - a combo I think makes the best dishes! Steak Diana Ross - while our server described this dish as "exciting" and it was quite good, I don't think this was a super memorable steak. It was cooked well and the mushrooms were amazing, but overall nothing too special. Next time I think I'd try the jamon! Olive oil cake - insane. Probably the best cake I've had. Super moist, with an amazing meringue topping that's the perfect amount of sweet and rich. I'd come back just to eat this. Overall, we absolutely loved our meal and I can't wait to come back! read more

We had dinner at Nobie's last night for my birthday and it was absolutely AMAZING. Nobie's was recommended to me a couple of years ago by my hairdresser and we finally made the drive to Houston to try it. The Dilly bread was sooo delicious and buttery soft. The peachy pasta was absolutely delicious and I hope they make it a permanent item in their menu. The Jamón with your bad self was sooooo delicious. I can't even explain the flavors. We finished off with an olive oil pie and was the perfect way to end our night. I will definitely be thinking about Nobie's for weeks to come and cannot wait to come back!! read more

Nobie's dishes are deliciously unique and you just can't go wrong with anything on the menu. The Tapas offered changes from time to time but that just makes the visits more exciting. The restaurant is very small with a moderately sized patio for covered outdoor dining. The staff will impress you with their in depth knowledge of the ingredients of each dish. An absolute MUST is the Dilly Bread, so put your order in early so you don't risk the restaurant selling out. After the bread, we ordered The Carroty Kid. This is an incredible veggie dish with a coconut curry adding just a pinch spicy flavor. We doubled down on the vegetables by ordering the Not Your Average Cabbage which was our favorite non bread option. The only thing that brought us down from cloud 9 was the Jamon With Your Bad Self. This pork steak just missed the mark for us. It was a little tough and the flavor didn't hold up when compared to the delicious vegetables we had prior. Although one out of four dishes weren't perfect, I still give them five stars based upon the sum of all visits. I'll be back. read more

I've heard fantastic reviews of Nobie's so I was excited when I finally got to dine in! My brother and I didn't have reservations, but we were lucky enough to snag a high top table right upon them opening at 5pm. The parking lot out back was very tiny however we were able to grab the last spot. We got a variety of dishes to share: - Dilly Bread - a must! So warm and pillowy soft! - Pretty Fly for a Fungi - so crispy yet light, and tastes amazing with their homemade buttermilk ranch and homemade hot sauce. - The Carroty Kid - my favorite! I'd come back again and again to have this hearty veggie dish. - 365 Potato Girl - this dish works so well and idk why no one else has ever made a baked potato gnocchi. Loved how soft it was! - Olive Oil Cake - a must! It wasn't overly sweet and we raved over that sugar crust! - Black Bottom Salted Caramel Pie - also a must! We came to Nobies based on their pie reputation and they didn't disappoint. We adored this sweet/salty combo and the whipped cream was a such a delightful way to cut through the sweetness. Our waitress was very friendly and attentive, and the staff always kept our waters filled and table clean. Honestly if I lived nearby, I'd come at least once a week. Cheers to one of my new favorite Htown restaurants! read more

When you're listed as a Bib Gourmand restaurant, you best believe you have to exceed service and food quality expectations. If not, you're doing it wrong. I made a reservation for January 2026 and was excited to select this restaurant to celebrate my partner's retirement, which needless to say is an important milestone to accomplish. I provided this detail to the restaurant so they can acknowledge this fact in some manner, similarly to the way a birthday, anniversary, etc. are acknowledged. However, they dinner came and went and not a single mention of the event, so I instead opted to just toast my partner with the drinks we ordered. Such a miss was quite bothersome. The servers were friendly, the timing of the order taking was a bit off, felt rushed at first. When we expressed we needed more time, they took forever to come back. We ordered the beef tartare and Brie and grapes for appetizers. They were delicious. Then for entree we ordered the tagliatelle and the meatballs. The tagliatelle was average, nothing to rave about. The meatballs were very salty. For dessert we ordered the olive oil cake, which was moist and tasty. Nobie's is definitely not on their way to a Michelin star, they need to improve their server timing and quality of the food. Overall, the experience was average in service and quality of the food. Won't be back. read more

First and foremost, the staff was super cool, very knowledgeable about the menu. You can tell the food is really high quality as well. My only thing to note is the price point of the chicken dinner meal. The server really sold me on it, but it was just okay. Not enough truffle gravy to accommodate the half chicken that is served. And when I asked for a some To go, it was an extra $5 for a little 1oz cup. read more

Nobie's lives up to the hype! I'm so sad it took me this long to finally try this place, but I will become a regular here for sure! It was honestly my favorite dinner in Houston in awhile! Only cons: Parking can be scarce if you don't get a spot in their tiny back parking lot, small neighborhood street parking after that. Reservations - they're always booked for good reason, they do reserve some tables just for walk ins though so we came right when they opened at 5pm to get a table. Pros: literally everything else. Service was on point with any Michelin restaurant I've been too. Ambiance is casual yet nice for a date night too. The food! I'll give a quick break down, but everything was phenomenal! Dilly bread - must order. Some of the best restaurant bread I've had in Houston. This is up there with the bread from Bludorn or the milk bread from Money Cat. Pillowy soft. Pretty Fly For a Fungi - seriously the best fried mushrooms in Houston. Light, crispy, and tasty w/ their homemade buttermilk dressing and red Fresno hot sauce. 365 Potato Girl - genius. Who doesn't love basically a loaded baked potato gnocchi dish? So comforting. The Carrotty Kid - definitely the most creative dish. Who knew roasted carrots could be so tasty?! Perfect balance between the coconut curry and fresh herb salad on top. Last, but not least, DESSERT! I'd come here for cocktails and dessert alone! Olive oil cake - simply perfection. The sugar crust has just the right amount of texture without being overly sweet, and their whipped cream topping is heavenly. BLACK BOTTOM SALTED CARAMEL PIE - the best pie I've ever had. It's rich, but has just the right amount of salt to balance the sweetness. I can't say enough good things about the dessert except don't skip dessert!! I'll be back for sure! read more

Pies- still come for the pies. It's been several years since I finally made it back to Nobies. It's remained a neighborhood staple, though I hadn't returned since nothing stood out. We had a wonderful server who made some great recs and knew the menu well. The dilly bread is still going strong. Pasta/gnocchi were good. Overall satisfying experience, but now that I'm thinking back, again wasn't wowed. The parking is still as annoying as ever, though I can't really complain as I lucked out with a street spot right in front of the restaurant. read more

I didn't make a reservation but was able to grab a seat at the bar as soon as they opened. The Texas tartare was well seasoned and came with some delicious bread. I wanted to lick the plate and order it again but knew I had a lot of food coming. The winner winner chicken dinner gets rave reviews so I was definitely curious how good it could be. I've had better chicken dishes, but I think it comes down to personal preference. All of the sides and sauces that come with the chicken complement it really well. I couldn't finish the whole chicken so had leftovers the next day, and it was still good. The olive oil cake was simple but delicious. The top of the cake has a sugary crust that adds a great texture. I definitely want to come back and try some of their other dishes. I can't say it was the most amazing meal I've ever had. However, I find very few restaurants can execute every dish well. Granted I only ordered 3 items, but that consistency puts them a tier above the rest. read more

I was today years old when I found Nobie's. Where have I been? Enjoyed a dear friend's bday dinner and the food was spectacular. In all seriousness, this establishment can be slammed as it's a tiny place, but the wait is worth it. Kuddos to the chef, servers and kitchen. Everything is truly tasty so please...bon appetite. Parking is scarce so Lyft it if you can. I will be bringing back family and more friends who are like me and have been living under a rock not knowing the deliciousness Nobie's brings. Thank you for a delightful evening on the patio! read more

Service was pretty prompt which was nice because I was hungry. The menu is very inclusive and had a lot of vegetarian options and dishes that could be made vegetarian. Before, Nobie's was very loud but it seemed more toned down when I went this time. The eggplant dish had a bunch of cool flavors and textures. It reminded me of something you would find on a tasting menu somewhere. A perfect marriage of savory and sweet. The artichoke - was messy but they told us that before we ordered. The sauce was very tasty and could eat that by itself tbh. Gnocchi was fluffy and I enjoyed the crispy bits that came with it. There are no N/A options listed on the menu but they can make N/A drinks. You just have to ask. Very accommodating staff. They made sure to pace out our meal and gave wonderful food suggestions. The only thing that was a miss were the carrots. They were a bit under cooked. read more

We got the beer battered sweet tots, the texas tartar, the carroty kid, the octopus prime, and the olive oil cake. The beer battered sweet tots were crispy and the harissa seasoning was delicious paired with the creamy goat cheese. The dish was just a bit heavy overall but tasty nonetheless. (6/10) The Texas tartar was light, well seasoned, and tasted divine on the toasted bread. It was my first time trying tartar and I was pleasantly surprised. (8/10) The carroty kid was the star of the meal for sure. The flavor that they are able to achieve with the roasted carrots and the coconut gochujang curry is to die for. The carrots with the curry, peanuts, and a piece of mint make the perfect bite. Would definitely come back just for this unique dish. (9.5/10) The octopus prime was tender and I really enjoyed the crispy potatoes it was paired with. The sauces on the plate were also yummy. I just personally enjoy a grilled octopus more. (7/10) The olive oil cake was super moist. Only small complaint was there was a sugar glaze at the top on the cake that was grainy when you bit into it and made it a bit too sweet for my liking. However, the whip cream and the bottom of the cake made the perfect bite. Definitely worth a try. (8/10) The service was super friendly and very attentive constantly filling our waters the whole night. I dined on the patio and I felt like the service was just as good as if I was inside. The parking is a bit tough because the lot is small but there is a lot of street parking near by. read more

Good spot for date nights. Nice and dark setting, feels like you're eating inside someone's home, in fact, it probably was someone's home a while back. Parking is rough, I'd recommend parking along the street instead of the back, it's a tight squeeze! I had high hopes for the Nonno's Pasta, as it was highly recommended by Eater. I don't think it particularly stood out, and it lacked the al dente-ness that gives pasta some texture. I'd rate it 2/5. My girlfriend ordered the "if you don't give a damn we dont give a duck", which was crispy duck, cantaloupe, watermelon aguachile, jicama, avocado, pepitas, cilantro. This dish was quite interesting. A lot going on, but came together flavor-wise. It's more like a salad, but it's one of the best damn salad's I've had. 5/5. We also ordered a "don't worry brie happy, brie" as a starter to share: honey comb, smoked grapes, toast. Kinda disappointing for how little you get at a $17 price point given it's simplicity. They really skimped on the honey comb, two tiny pinches of it, I wouldn't even mention it on the menu at this point. Toast is a bit rough, it'll tear up the roof of your mouth. 1/5 Service was good. There's definitely enough on the menu that warrant a future visit. The duck definitely brought up the average. read more

Everything we had here was super tasty. I usually don't order bread (out of fear I'll get too full) but the pull apart rolls were SO fluffy and delicious, especially with added roe. The chicken dinner had crispy skin and sides and sauces that kept the dish from getting dull. Ambiance was very homey, like dining in someone's living room. Reservations were easy to make online and there are several onsite parking spots. We left our boxed leftovers on the table and someone came out to give them to us. Very nice of them! read more

Had a fantastic first experience at Nobies for our anniversary. Started off with the popcorn which was a fun snack. The dilly bread and the everything bagel butter was super good get 2 orders if you have 4 people thank me later. Don't skip the bib lettuce salad, super well seasoned and delicate greens complimented by a flavorful vinaigrette. The carrotty kid may be one of my most favorite veg dish I've ever had. Eater beware if does have a kick but it's complex and creative dish. The bolognese was as good as advertised. The meat sauce is great but the real star was the beautifully cooked pasta. The star of the night imo was the steak Dianne. Literally one of the best beef dishes I've ever had. Not super familiar with hanger steak but it was super beefy and very tender. The sauce and mushrooms served with it were unreal. Do not miss this if it's on the menu. And just because we've heard so much about the pies we got the cookies and cream, s'mores and key lime. All of which were stellar balanced and great texture not too sweet and a bit salty. Can't wait to come back. Can't miss read more

We love Nobie's! Great service, delicious food, amazing craft cocktails! We have been to Nobie's many times and one thing is for sure - they are consistent. Consistently AWESOME! The place has a groovy vibe and great tunes - haven't sat on the patio yet because we love it inside so much but it's always packed so be sure to make a reservation. And order the tartar & olive oil cake. read more

Dining in America doesn't get much better than this! Amazing food, classic service, chic environment and casual dress, ...the only thing missing is parking! Beautiful European-style plating of entrees and sides served family-style as they are prepared by the kitchen are great for sharing and bonding over meals. We started with dilly bread and enjoyed every morsel as we sip cocktails. Did I mention that it was "Whiskey Wednesday"? Did I mention that select cocktails are only $4 on Whiskey Wednesdays. I had a gold rush. The first entry delivered was grilled artichoke, a fun dish to share over drinks and conversation. The pasta dish "charlie & the pasta factory" and the main entry "winner winner chicken dinner" came out at the same time. The chicken was exceptional. Served with a mixed green salad and pickles, the plating was exceptional and so was the flavor. Similar (though darker) in appearance to Frankenmuth Chicken, the flavors were as bold as Texas. I can see why this is Brittany B's favorite restaurant for entertaining. By the way, we finished the meal with pie! read more
