Shrimp Wedge

I had a delicious cultural experience with my friends over the weekend at Novocento Delray. This location has been a struggle for many past restaurants and I dont know why. It is located just north of the "Ave" and has its own free parking area. The restaurant is super cute and the service and food was very good. We all took part in their bottomless "boozy" brunch beverages with our entrées orders. We had a variety of dishes from empanadas and salmon ceviche to burgers and salads. Everything was delicious and since it was during the dine out Delray month, we had our dessert included in the meal price. The server, Valentina, worked extra hard as bartender and table server. She was just super nice and definitely a well experienced server. The meal was great with our friends and I will be sure to come back for a return visit.

I came back to Novecento after being invited for Sips & Bites. The "temperature controlled" outdoor area could use a bit more actual temperature control, but the Sips & Bites were so good that I had to return for a full experience. I'm glad I did. 1. The staff is incredibly gracious and kind. Our waitress Tracy was extremely attentive without ever coming off as pushy or rushed. She was warm and personable. I also spoke with one of the managers. I don't remember his name, but he had tattoos and even gave me a hug. I don't think I've ever been hugged by restaurant staff before, but I loved it. They really make you feel like family. I was shocked to find out this place is a chain. I had no idea. I thought it was an original restaurant concept. Wow. 2. The food. The chicken empanada is heavenly. I know you can choose two, but I would recommend getting two of the chicken. They are creamy and large enough that you can split one in half and comfortably share. The filling is piping hot and the dough on the outside is fluffy. 3. The steaks were cooked to a perfect temperature. I am a medium-well girl and I will not apologize for it. Bad restaurants treat it like I said well-done and burn my steak. Not here. I had a hot pink center just the way I like it. Thank you so much for that. My absolute compliments to the chef. The steak was flavorful and juicy. I ordered the NY Strip and my partner had the filet. Both cuts of meat were so flavorful and tender that I could hardly tell the difference. 4. I highly recommend the grilled vegetables to accompany the steak. Nothing pairs better than peppers and onions with a good steak. I was blown away. 5. I am not a huge fan of flan, but the person I was with really wanted to try it. Even though I'm usually not into flan, I enjoyed the dulce de leche flavor and the whipped cream. The texture was firmer than most flan, which I appreciated. I will absolutely be coming back to Novecento. Everything went perfectly.

Chicken Empanada (sample portion)... very tasty!
Ava P.

This was my very first Yelp event, and I must say, I felt it was very well done! The food samples, the music, the well-made drinks, the atmosphere, and mostly my fellow Yelpers... all made the evening great. I will definitely be back to experience the restaurant fully on another occasion since everything else there seemed to be very much on point.

Wanted to surprise my fiance for his birthday dinner with reservations someplace we had yet to try and Novecento made the cut. After reviewing their menu I absolutely knew this was the spot and that he'd want to try their Waygu Denver and lucky for us, he got the last piece of the night. We arrived a few minutes late for our 8pm reservation because I didn't research parking so don't make my mistake! There is very limited street parking so we opted for a nearby garage. Garage parking cost us $8 for the 1.5hrs we were there. Once seated we were offered warm bread and placed an order for their empanada appetizer. The empanadas were yummy - your typical Argentinian style. Our main courses were Waygu Denver for my fiance with mashed potatoes and grilled asparagus and skirt steak with mashed potatoes for myself. Everything was to die for and cooked to perfection. For drinks, I'm a Malibu and Coca Cola girl so I was disappointed to hear they only had regular rums. However, my fiance ordered their Messi drink which came adorned with a soccer ball branded on the ice cube. The inside of the restaurant is quaint and typical for Delray establishments that seem to have taken over little bungalows. While they offered outdoor seating, it's way too hot in South Florida to sit anywhere but inside with the a/c on blast.

Chicken Milanese
Holly S.

Love this new restaurant. We sat at the bar and Max was a great bartender. We ordered chicken Milanese w mashed potatoes and tenderloin Milanese with a salad. I loved my chicken and mashed potatoes. Moist and crispy chicken and the potatoes were silky smooth. My husband liked his a lot too. I thought it tasted gamey and preferred the chicken. We also ordered the chicken and steak empanadas. These were Soo flavorful and delicious. It didn't even need a sauce. We will absolutely be back.

Happy Hour menu
Delia R.

We came during happy hour and parked in the back. It was the low season, so we didn't encounter a large crowd. They have a great happy hour menu, and the customer service was superb. The quality of the food was excellent. I had a hard time choosing an item from the menu since everything looked delicious. It's a must-try for anyone looking for a good meal in Delray without dealing with the traffic on Atlantic.

Came for my 28th birthday and all the food was delicious and very well prepared. Everyone at the table was raving about the food and our waiter was so sweet and even sang me happy birthday along with a cake! Also my espresso martini hit the spot and I would recommend this place for your next big celebration!

Grilled Ceasar
Martine K.

Valentina was amazing! She was our server and bartender and she was the highlight of our visit today. We were 6 people who came in for brunch. The place was empty. :( We started with unlimited drinks ..mimosas, prosecco, Bloody Mary, or Sangrias were the choices and you can switch. Price was $20 of ordering off the prix fixe menu or $25 normally. We started with Beef Carpaccio and a cheese appetizer. I forgot the name of the cheese one but it was very doughy. The carpaccio was very tender. Some of us did the prix fixe and got salmon crudo, empanada, and grilled Ceasar. All were good but the Ceasar salad stood out most. For a main I got the hamburger (forgot picture)which was cooked perfect. Friends got a wedge salad, Chorizo Scrambles, and Hamburgers. Portions were large. For dessert we got the crepe and it was so yummy. What a great ending to a wonderful meal. Only 2 other tables were sat while we were there which was sad. We hope to go back soon.

Grilled Caesar salad
Jennifer K.

We made a reservation for outside about a day before not realizing how chilly it would be. When the hostess called to confirm, she was kind enough to offer us inside! It was warm and pretty inside. The one thing they threw me off right away was the bathroom. It's make/female to share with two stalls. I don't love their at up but it is what it is. Our waiter was very nice and made great recommendations! We started with a bunch of appetizers, including the shrimp, the bread and two orders of empanadas both beef and spinach. The empanadas were crispy on the outside and delicious and flavorful on the inside. The shrimp were in this white wine sauce and cooked perfectly. The waiter recommended taking the bread and dipping it into the sauce, which we did and it was terrific! Next, we got the Caesar salad. I think I single handedly ate the entire thing! It was one of the best Caesar salads I've ever had. Then we moved on to our entrées. I got the grilled chicken and mashed potatoes. Chicken was moist and delicious. Mashed potatoes were just average nothing special. I should've gotten a different side. My husband got the fried chicken and french fries and said both were delicious. The chicken was nice and juicy and had good flavor. My cousin got the risotto with steak and commented on how the steak was cooked perfectly and the risotto was creamy and delicious. Her husband got the skirt steak and mentioned that it was super flavorful and tender. Sometimes skirt steak can be tough, but this was not he said. We opted not to get any dessert because we were so full! A couple of drinks were gotten and everything was delicious! The old-fashioned was superb. We will definitely be back! One thing to note... parking was a bit tricky. Allow some extra time to park further away and walk.

Such a cute restaurant. Tons of great food for a very good price. I rarely give places 5/5 but this was one. Split the paradilla. All of the meat was so good my favorite was either the sausage or churrasco. Picana was also really tasty and crispy and the chicken was moist and flavorful. The roasted potato was the best side and the roasted veggies also really good. The truffle fries were just ok and they didn't have the mashed potatoes bc they ran out. Oh and the cheese appetizer was really good tasted like a pizza. White sangria is delicious. Staff is also very friendly.

Chicken Milanese with mashed potatoes
Howard F.

A loud not-particularly-Argentinian Argentinian restaurant in Delray (which used to be a Spanish restaurant my wife and I loved to frequent) with superb service. My wife loved the Branzino, everyone else's dishes were fine, but the real standouts here apparently are the steak (which we did not have) and the service. Our waiter was great.

I didnt have any expectations as I haven't had any good steak here but was amazed at how great the food was. I was doubting my choices and the kind manager Kenny was able to provide good guidance on my needs. Shoutout to Gabe and Valentina too! They were very kind and patient while i decided on my food choices. Lastly the restaurant its very beautiful and has amazing set up

Pisco sours
Steve C.

I was looking forward to an Argentinian restaurant in the area. Unfortunately, Novecento was disappointing. We enjoyed our pisco sours but got some attitude from the bartender, always a turn off. Next, the table they initially gave us was in the back and not as nice as other parts of the restaurant. When I went up to the desk, the manager was quite accommodating, but I can't say as much for the hostess trying to prove me wrong about the table and the reservation, pointing to the part of the screen where it said "hi-top or table". Thank you, I'm glad you think you think were correct; that's some poor customer service. Again, the manager was helpful and sat us at nice two-top. As for the food, just average, at best. We had the sausages, which weren't very good. A sausage sitting on a plate, dry, alone, not too appealing. The grilled caesars were good and the provoleta was good. As for our mains, we tried the filet mignon and the rib eye, which were "direct from Argentina". The ribeye was overcooked and the filet was dry, not to mention that the texture of the ribeye was very odd. It didn't have a flat surface like most cuts of beef. The filet was cut in half crosswise and folded over. Why would anyone do that to a nice, thick piece of meat? Last time I saw this technique was at the Longhorn Steakhouse. And the fries were very basic, not at the level of good steakhouse fries. Our server, who was excellent and the exception to the frowny hostess, had a new ribeye prepared, which came out skirting on raw. The desserts were also not great. The creme brulee didn't have the nice, hard surface, the lava cake was okay, but the tiramisu was bad. We will not be going back. This is not the place to go for a good steak.

Do they still add 18% tip to your check for parties under 6 people. My friends and I won't go if they do. Thanks for your help. It could save us a trip?

I think they still do but you would have to call the restaurant to ask if they changed that policy.

Where can we park?

There are two levels, filled with classic and collector's pinball machines going back several decades. There are also a ton of retro video games from my youth. There are bars upstairs and downstairs, and I believe food is available as well. Parking can be a little tricky, but by having a little patience, you'll find a spot soon enough. There is a public lot just adjacent to the arcade. Your admission gets you access to all the pinballs, video games, and skee ball. I'd plan for at least two hours to enjoy all the games. The people who work the register are quite nice. If you go on their website and join their mailing list, they frequently have deals for tickets or gift cards. Their specials are very generous and can make for an affordable and fun night out. I would probably visit here more often if I lived near Delray. Silverball is quite unique and definitely a great family spot.
