We went here for the first time yesterday. It's a very cute spot tucked away in the Highlands Ranch area with a deceptively large space. Loved the complimentary bubbles! We came for happy hour and tried the hamachi crudo, burrata, and crab cakes, which were all done really well. We'll definitely be back for dinner sometime! read more

Nolia - Hamachi crudo - Wine Bars Near Me - Centennial, Colorado

This was our first time here and came across it when in the area and search "wine bar". We saw there was a happy hour from 3-6 PM, so we stopped by. This is a cute place in a strip mall. We were immediately sat on the patio around 5:45 PM. We were greeted and given "welcome bubbles". What a nice touch. After about 5 minutes, we were finally given menus. Other people were sat around us, so we waited to ask for the happy hour menu. We ordered the chef's choice charcuterie, a cocktail, and a glass of wine. The drinks and board were yum, but not quite a wine bar as there were very limited option by the glass. Also, we had to ask for plates and silverware where this is a basic item. While deciding on dinner, we were approached a couple times by the 2 servers in the section. One was friendly, the other, not so much, rather indifferent and made us feel a little uncomfortable and not very welcome. This kind of set the tone for the rest of our night. We ordered the "family share" chateaubriand. We realize this is an expensive cut, but the portion is definitely not a sharing cut, around 4 oz. It is closer to a single entree. When it arrived, the plate was cold, like the meat was lukewarm and the cauliflower was ice cold. Again, we had to ask for silverware and plates for this "family style shareable" plate. We brought the cauliflower temperature up with the server and got new cauliflower after we were done with the rest of the meal. Also, I sat with an empty wine glass and no one stopped to ask if I needed another glass. When the servers did stop by, it was a short interaction and we never even had a chance to ask before they were already walking away. We saw so many people come in and out that they must be doing something right, but for us, our experience was mediocre. If our meal would have been the correct temperature (it was well prepared, just cold) and better execution on the service, we may have had a better experience. read more

Well went to Nolias on a random Wednesday afternoon at about 3pm. Called to ensure they were open to public as lots of our closer spots near work were closed for private Xmas parties. My coworker recommended Nolias for drinks and tapas. Well they were super sweet & attentive but the wine options and tapas that are GF were limited. I had taken some pictures but possibly deleted - so my apologies. My first time here so perhaps just an off day. We ordered from the happy hour menu & real menu as well. read more

Randomly stumbled upon this charming new establishment. Love at first site. The vibe is very European feel. But with southern hospitality service! I need to meet the owner... I believe we must be foodie soulmates. Such an eclectic menu with paninis, traditional French, and the biggest charcuterie selection I've ever s read more

Each year for our anniversary, we like to try a new spot in town. With this one being close to home and newish to the neighborhood, we made reservations (via text as the website suggested, but opentable is where it's at) and happily made our way over. SPACE: Super cute patio, cozy interior and adjacent rooms that are filled with local artwork - offering a variety of seating options, plush furniture and open bar. Decor is interesting - a twist of southern charm meets local artist, meets New Orleans. We had requested an indoor seat, so our cutie little table was butted up against a window overlooking the patio and we felt right at home. SERVICE: Very pleasant, welcoming and so sweet! There was a little misunderstanding with our reservation (I said the wrong name for the reservation, to which they didn't recognize, which makes sense) so the original seat we wanted, was booked. We later ironed out that we had reservations and that's when we were brought to the cutest spot - mentioned above. We were greeted with NA bubbly, provided a rundown of the menu, highlighted their summer menu and mentioned 2 mocktails we'd like! So nice! Every interaction was nice! SPECIALS: Everyone mentions the Happy Hour here - which looks bomb! There are a few specials offered each week - the menu literally changes weekly - so that's fun! SUSTENANCE: While the appetizers looked very good, we opted for individual entrees! This spot is known for its' family style/tapa's vibe, which I totally get! The menu features a ton of options similar to that, but we opted for other. I went with the Summer Lemon Pea Rivoli - featuring a pea puree, fresh lump shrimp and crispy shallots. YUM! The house made pasta was light, refreshing and so good! Ben opted for the chicken and dumplings - which ended up being more like the inside of a pot pie - which he's absolutely obsessed with - so he was one happy camper! The price tag is a little steep here, but the quality is great and it's perfect for a special dinner! read more

We were exploring the Centennial area and dinner time was at hand...we were in the mood for wine and Yelp helped us find Nolia which was gem! First off we were offered a complimentary pour of bubbly...who doesn't like that! Large menu featuring a number of different dishes and styles. My wife loves charcuterie boards so we went with the mini board. We added on an order of the seared mahi tacos, bacon green chili cornbread, finishing off with an assortment of toffees. Of course we had to do a wine flight, red for me and white for the wife. The mini board was the perfect size for and the tacos were very good. The Cornbread served nice and warm with the cheese and jam were perfect with our wines. The toffees were a nice end, not too heavy, just enough to end it with a sweet treat. Loved the space with both indoor and outdoor seating, the food was amazing, the staff were fun, and service was perfect. We discovered they also offer periodic wine events that we'll need to check out in the future! read more

Welcome bubbles! Need I say more? The owners father is an artist and his art is displayed throughout which I found very exciting. The service is wonderful, the food is to die for and they have a cute little patio to top it off! Tons of parking and prime location. read more

Okay so you have to watch for emails to see all the seasonal specials. the star of all of our visits are the charcuterie options. They have an unlimited amount of charcuterie and we love the chefs special when we go. I will say the boiled crawfish during crawfish season was not worth getting. There was no seasoning so I'd try somewhere else or just be prepared to season when you get home and peel them. Outside of the crawfish, everything has always been fabulous. Just ask your server what they think is best special for that day and you won't be disappointed! read more

Overall enjoyed our first visit to noila with another couples for Sunday lunch do my husbands bday. Cocktails and mocktails were on point. Innovative and delicious. The chicken and dumplings and duck were the winners at our table, absolutely delicious and a good portion. The crab cakes, the mushrooms & burrata were all very good as well but the devil on horseback's were "okay but the Chevre didn't pair well w the flavor profile". Service was okay-ish - slow when not busy. The server was working the lunch shift for the first time so she didn't have much to say on the menu. We will likely return for dinner to give it another shot! Food was def worth it! read more

Nolia's had excellent Yelp reviews, and we wanted to dine outside, so our party of four decided to give it a try. We arrived in time for Happy Hour, and ordered some wine and mocktails off the Happy Hour menu. We also ordered seven small plates from their dinner menu, though there were many more we wanted to try. We selected: * Happy Hour Cocktail $12.00 * Line 39 Cab × 2 $18.00 ($9.00 ea.) * Line 39 Cab $12.00 * Rose Blueberry Smash Cocktail $9.00 * Beef Chateaubriand $32.00 * Duck Confit $24.00: house made duck confit wine poached grapes, creamy grits, apple salad, berry pasilla jam, toast points * Mushrooms $17.00 Pear & Brie $17.00: honey, poached pears, danish brie, walnuts, in skillet puff pastry * Arugula Pear Salad: $14.00 * Crawfish Etouffee: $9.00 * Devils on Horseback $10.00: dates stuffed with goat cheese wrapped in speck, served with blueberry jam and arugula My favorite was the Beef Chateaubriand, cooked medium rare as ordered. My co-diners favorites were the Arugula Pear Salad and the Crawfish Etouffee. I sampled every dish and would reorder all of them. Service was excellent throughout the dinner. We would be delighted to return. read more

What a wonderful place! Had a tremendous meal tonight with exceptional service, delightful food and a warm atmosphere.

Food is small portions but fantastic. One of the best crab cakes i have ever had. They need to invest in a blind for their window seats we got blinded as the sun set. They have a 4 course dinner that we didn't do but created our own. We started with crab cakes, then gumbo, then ciopino and finish with chateau briand. We split everything and left stuffed. Great small quaint spot. I should have taken food pics but didn't. You will open up your wallet but not regret that you did. read more

I am grateful that we decided to come out to try Nolia. We will be back again! The restaurant is a little smaller than I expected, but had some great seating outside. The staff were friendly and everyone had great things to say about the food. We started with blackberry flatbread, it was excellent, sweet and had great flavor 10/10. We also had the gumbo, which was good 7.5/10, also flavorful. We had both the Caesar 9/10 and pear salad 8.5/10. I really thought the dressing on the pear salad was wonderful. For side dishes we had the green chile cornbread, with really great cream cheese 8/10, it was a little dry but had great flavor. The carrots were another winner, paired well with the goat cheese 10/10. For the entrees my partner had the short rib bolognese 7.5/10 and I had the crab stuffed rainbow trout special 8.5/10. For dessert we had both the cannolis 8/10 and the winter spiced carrot cake 9/10. The carrot cake was a better dessert and we loved the cream cheese that was on it. If there was any drawback it was that the cake felt a little dry but the topping helped with that. All in all it was a great meal. We are very happy with our choice to come here. Our meal took a long time, we were there over 2 hours. The place was empty when we arrived but got filled up as the evening moved on. It took a long time for our entrees close to 45 minutes, but I am not going to hold that against them. The service was friendly but they could have come over a little more frequently. We look forward to coming back again soon. read more

Of our party of four, only one enjoyed the food served for dinner. The other three were disappointed in the food temperature and taste (flavorless). The food was not good. The hour long wait between the appetizers and ordering our entrees was too long. The desserts were very disappointing. The good: welcome bubbles and various wines. We were expecting a dinner at over $100 each but felt the food was not good. Not recommended. read more

We brought a party of 8 here for a business dinner and OMG, what an amazing time everyone had. Brie was our server and did a great job of keeping up with what was a pretty boisterous table of people who were all just having a blast. The food here is simply amazing. Starting with the Reserve board, our table had Caesar and pear salads, étouffée , gumbo, lamb, duck confit, seared cod, tortilini, stuffed yukon potaoes, aspargus - and OMG the desserts. Table-wide agreement that the carrot cake was the best ever, Butterscotch pot o' creme, cheesecake canoli, etc etc etc. Everyone in our group was just blown away by how great everything was - not a single issue, not a single dish that was considered "meh" - and yeah, great service. Can't wait to go back - and i heard the same sentiment from everyone in the group. Wow - spectacular job Nolia! read more

Usually enjoy this place. This afternoon (a Friday) I came at 3:30 and asked for a table. Was told that reservations had been made for tables later ( which I understood). But was told," You need to be finished by 5:30, by 6:00..". It was 3:30!!!?? Didn't feel very welcome. I eat there once a week. Maybe I need to find another place to go??? read more

Smaller setting. Pref fixe menu was not great on Valentine's Day. Small portions and very high prices. Service was good and friendly. The restaurant created unrealistic "scarcity" by using a "reservation" system, which is fine, but with a deposit requirement. When we got to the restaurant, most tables were empty. The reservation fee does not get refunded when you arrive and order nor it is removed from the price of the food. It's a non refundable reservation surcharge it seems just for eating there. read more

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious! What a fantastic dinner! Thank you to my friend who recommended this. The place is small, classy, romantic, and with a beautiful outdoor patio seating. We came hungry and finished 95 percent of all that we ordered and shared. We each got a glass of wine. It's a must with the extensive wine list they have. I had the Della Torre and it is so smooth and dangerous! Geezes, thank goodness I had control of myself because I could've easily had a bottle to myself! Lol Where to begin, my goodness gracious, the appetizers were all just phenomenal. Pardon our appetite here, but we ordered a lot to share. Lol Appetizers, we got the burrata, the poached pear & brie en croute, stuffed gypsy pepper (I'm so mad, I forgot to get a picture of this one!), and the chef's choice board (middle). The appetizers all tasted so darn delicious, distinct, and savory. You cannot go wrong with any one of these appetizers. We also ordered two entrees to try. The house duck confit and the lobster ravioli. Both dishes were savory. The duck was so tender and very flavorful and paired well with the cauliflower and beet puree. I'm not a big duck person, but I'd eat this again. The lobster ravioli was enjoyable too. The sauce light and the home made ravioli cooked perfect. Lastly, my friend said we might as well go all the way, and we ordered the lemon curd tart for dessert. This dessert was definitely tart and a bit too tart for me. Lol. I do like tart, but I couldn't eat as much as I wanted too. I had about 4 good bites of it. Definitely nice creamy, tart, and sweet taste. Very refreshing and a great palette cleanser. The dessert was the 5 percent we couldn't finish. As you can see from all my pictures, all the entrees were beautifully crafted and presented well. This place depicts what fine dining should look like and taste like. I am forever a fan here. I'm really looking forward to coming back to try more things from here! This is a great place for social and leisurely dining and sharing, a great date venue, and just for the great food. This place is definitely my kinda style. Thanks to my servers Lindsey and Ainslee! The staff and service was fantastic. I'd give it a 6 stars if allowed. read more

I was so thrilled when I found out about this place. I was even more excited to try it. The owners are from Louisiana, and I was craving some southern cuisine! Upon entering we were greeted with a cava toast, which was light and refreshing. My friend and I decided to split a charcuterie board. They had so many choices, and you can even build your own. It was exquisite! For the main course, I got duck confit, and she got beef carpaccio. My duck confit was one of the best duck entrees I have ever had. I was so impressed! The sweet potatoes & asparagus paired so well with the dish. The ambiance was very subtle & pleasing to the senses. I was very surprised. Our service was impeccable. We were waited on, hand and foot! Def give this restaurant a try. read more

I had a friend visiting from out of town and had always wanted to try Nolia. We sat outside because the weather was nice and ordered several plates to share as well as a bottle of wine. We ordered two items from their specials menu- a tagliatelle pasta in creamy sauce and scallops with risotto. Both were good but I liked the scallops better. Both sauces were rich and cream and I'm glad we shared. We also had the ceviche which was okay, the chorizo potatoes which were good, and the seasonal burrata which was probably my favorite. It was a very quaint restaurant, although the inside was a little too dark. Overall the food was good but maybe a little too rich. Tons of wine options though and I think I would go back again and try other dishes! read more

Food was great... Edward the server needs to take chip off his shoulder!! Very arrogant!!

Heard this was a great spot with Cajun tapas and great charcuterie boards so had to try for myself. Loved the small European type cafe decor and the menu had a great variety for charcuterie options and other options. Food was good but Service was very poor which made the experience a bit on the mediocre side. Disappointed in the chicken and dumplings , which came with two biscuits as the dumplings? I'm from the south and never heard cooked biscuits as the dumplings. The crabs cakes were fresh and had great taste with a fantastic cream sauce, drinks were also very good . I will be go back to try other menu options read more

Dined at Nolia with my family yesterday on the patio despite the chilly evening. They even brought us blankets! A tall gentleman got us started with complimentary sparkling wine and cocktails and then our server Lindsay gave great wine recommendations and ideas for dishes. The food was delicious and the service made my family wish we lived closer. Thank you Nolia! read more

Very quaint friendly and warm restaurant with great food. Very attentive service. Everything we had was scrumptious including the mussels, cauliflower, charcuterie, duck confit and sea bass. Wine list and drink menu were superb. Please note this is a tapas bar and all the dishes are small. Don't venture here with a big appetite. Come for the ambiance and food quality. We spent almost 200.00 with drinks and tip and left still hungry. read more

Paulina at Nolia is an absolute gem. She provides incredible service every time and makes some of the best cocktails I've had in a long while. She's friendly, knowledgeable, and makes the whole experience feel special. I'd highly recommend sitting at her bar if you get the chance. read more

Tonight we had an incredible meal. The service was a little glitchy but the food was worth it. The owner was very sweet and receptive to some mild feedback. We will definitely go back! read more

My favorite place for family style dinning or brunch, food it's really outstanding, the wine selection it's huge and they offer you different sizes so you can have a much or as little as you want, very extensive by the glass, way much more expensive selection by the bottle. The specials are just amazing, if you find something that you want to try there's not time to waste because they have new stuff every week. Service it's the best, Adrian was mostly helping me and I have to say he has an amazing personality and smile, the staff it's super friendly, helpful and knowledgeable I had a great time. I can't wait to come back. LOVE IT! This is my go to for any type of occasions. read more

We dropped in here during happy hour while I our daughter was at a party. We sat at the bar and the bartender started us with just a splash of complimentary bubbly which was nice. They had a red wine on HH for $9/glass so that is what we had. The appetizers on the HH menu sounded pretty good. We went with the trout for $10 and it was pretty disappointing. It tasted fine, but for $10, I'd expect more than a tiny piece of trout on a store-bought cracker. We opted to forego any other HH offerings and turned to the regular menu instead. I'm glad we did! We had the Steak au Poivre which was absolutely to die for! The meat was super tender and the sauce- oh the sauce- so glorious. Our next (and final) choice was for the gnocchi. This again was divine. Nolia can really knock out a cream sauce. I wished for more mushrooms but honestly, it was delicious. I think Nolia has some tasty bites, but it is a bit spendy. The HH wine was the only reasonable offering so going off HH would set you back a lot more. It's definitely a welcomed addition to the neighborhood though. We will probably return at some point to try other things on the menu! read more

This is why I love to dine at independently owned restaurants. I visited Nolia (short for Magnolia, the state flower of Louisiana and home of the owner) on a Monday night and it was the level of excellence you would expect on a Friday or Saturday. Craft cocktails, charcuterie boards, tapas, and full plates available. The staff is friendly and attentive. Food was excellent; so good I decided to dive in and forgot to take pictures. Authentic NOLA cuisine. I was solo but this place would be a great place for a romantic date night. I had the gumbo, red beans & rice, and the shrimp & grits. Everything was delicious. read more
