    I was anxious to try Novo Mundo after so many years and at their new location. The location was…read moreeasy to get to and has off street parking. We were able to get a table away from the door on this cold January night. However there's no good spot to sit to get away from the cold. (My feet were numb by the end of the meal). We ordered the chicken wings with piri piri sauce. You get 8 small chicken wings with sauce which is just like a buffalo sauce. I ordered the fish and chips and hubby ordered the whole chicken with rice and vegetables. I was disappointed with the portions of the fish. Plenty of fries but not much fish. Since hubby didn't get the standard rice and fries but the veggies, there was an up charge for the previously frozen veggies. Again portion for the chicken was disappointing. I was hoping it would be the same sauce I remembered but it was a Tabasco/strong vinegar sauce, which was inedible. I was hoping I would love the food as in the past but will not be returning.

    we enjoyed trying novo mundo after seeing on socials. we didn't like the bread much but we really…read moreenjoyed our meal. we ended up getting their famous rotisserie chicken and the whole chicken was enough to share between the two of us as the plate was huge (and only $20)! so flavorful and a good pairing with the rice and fries. their house-made hot sauce is really good too. ending with the grandmas pudding was a perfect choice as well. we will definitely be back :)

    Our coffee drinks were mediocre. Ordered the banana bread iced latte that tasted heavily…read moreartificial, similar to a banana laffy taffy. Their pumpkin marshmallow latte was okay. Syrup sat at the very bottom; not mixed well and they ran out of marshmallow fluff. Waiting area is super small and busy due to servers running in and out so they recommend people to wait outside. Due to this, we were not properly notified by server staff that our coffee orders were done and when we went in to check, the manager/server kept ambushing us with the question, "oh, where were you guys?" and when we did answer "we waited outside" she replied "oh, i don't go outside" After this interaction, I cannot see myself coming back to dine in.

I have always loved this place and everything I've had here, but this was next level. I had a thanksgiving sandwich and sangria. The sangria was so delicious. One of the best I've had in a while. The Thanksgiving sandwich was served with potato wedge like rounds and wow! So good! I love Thanksgiving sandwiches and this one was hands down the best I've ever had. It took a lot to only eat half and save room for dessert. I'm so glad i did because their fried nata was next level. I didn't know how it would be, and it was sooooo good. They really care about their food and that is seen in their cooking and also their service. I'm amazed by both every time! This spot is super cute too. It's historical and they did such a good job keeping that feel. It's meant to feel like you're at your tias house and i just love that mentality. While this was a staple in my weekend breakfast routine, I'm thinking lunch and dinner might have to be included in the mix moving forward!

    In a search for an OPEN restaurant in the middle of the afternoon, we found David's open and…read moreinviting. To start, we shared the Shrimp Mozambique appetizer: it was big (about 10 shrimp) and the Mozambique sauce was tasty and just spicy enough. For my meal, I ordered my most favorite meal at David's: the Special Seafood Pasta. It's only on the "Specials" menu, and it FANTASTIC. Big scallops, lottsa shrimp, and some surprisingly large chunks of lobster. LOVE IT!!!

    I've been to this restaurant before and had a great experience, but unfortunately, this visit…read moredidn't live up to those expectations. Both the food and service was underwhelming today. There was a large event happening in a separate room, but in the main dining area, only two tables were occupied...ours being one of them. Our waitress took our drink order fairly quickly, but that was the last bit of prompt service we received. We waited about 30 minutes before she returned to take our food order, and only after we reminded another staff member. We didn't get our appetizer until over an hour after arriving, although I will say the linguica clam fritters with the chipotle dipping sauce were absolutely delicious. Our entrées came out about 15-20 minutes afterwards. I ordered the French meat pie and enjoyed it, but everyone else at the table had complaints about their meals, the Alfredo sauce was apparently a letdown, it looked extremely watery. On the other hand, the chicken alentejana was extremely dry. We didn't bring any of these issues to the staff's attention, so I can't speak to how they would have handled it. However, the overall service was disappointing. Our waitress and a few others were visible throughout the visit but not attentive by any means. We even had to go up to her ourselves to ask for boxes and the check. Unfortunately, this visit didn't reflect the great experience I had in the past, I'm not sure if I will be back as this place has seemingly gone downhill.

    On a Saturday evening my 6:00 reservation was definitely needed. The place was full and even the…read moretwo open seats at the bar when I arrived soon filled. I was escorted to my table and was soon greeted by my waiter Ethan who brought bread and the menus. Bread was just mini white loafs, exceptional only for its absolute freshness. So many places have done away with table bread so this was very much appreciated, but it was way too much for a single diner. The mostly Portuguese menu had much to choose from. I got the Pasteis de Bacalhau appetizer (codfish cakes). The 8 small-sized cakes had a subtly crisp golden brown exterior and a filling that was light in both texture and flavor - less salt cod than in some others would be my guess. This was served with banana peppers and black olives over a bit of lettuce. I liked them but felt a sauce of some sort would have elevated them. I used Red Hot from the table. The entree section was very heavy on the meats, particularly steaks of which there were 8, sirloin, shish ka bob, filet, and t-bone, prepared in a variety of ways. I didn't want a steak and, being in a Portuguese restaurant I wanted something more obviously Portuguese. So I went to the seafood section which was also extensive and found Swordfish Alhinho Style. I asked Ethan about it who replied confidently and correctly that it was a lemony sauce made with a lot of garlic and it is served over the fish which is grilled. Which was exactly correct. He was a great waiter in all respects. The dish was the swordfish, boiled halved potatoes, and broccoli. The fish was generously covered with the lemony garlicky gravy, the garlic in large chunks making up maybe 1/2 of the volume. There was plenty enough left over for the potatoes, which I liked for being just boiled and sliced, not mashed. The only flaw was the broccoli. I'm not sure but it tasted frozen, not fresh. That's a shame because there was a lot of it but it wasn't worth eating. So both the appetizer and entree were very good, and representative of Portuguese cuisine. Not innovative or special in any way but this isn't that kind of restaurant. It's upscale but not "fine dining". You can see that in the table settings too: the napkins are white cloth but the placemats are the paper kind with advertisements on them. But it was a nice atmosphere in spite of the Keno machine and many televisions, and the noise level was moderate. The cocktails used mostly standard brands like Bacardi and Stoli, with a few unusual liqueurs added in. I had a Portuguese Cha Frio (Iced Tea) made with Stoli Citron, Licor Beirao (a Portuguese liqueur), unsweetened tea, and lemon. I liked it and it seemed strong enough. The wine list included a few Portuguese ones by the glass. I didn't think my wine very good but I wanted to stick to the Portuguese theme as much as possible. I liked that it was brought in a carafe that still had some left over after Ethan poured my first glass. The espresso was perfect. No disagreeable sour notes, just pleasantly and slightly bitter, an aroma slightly fruity. As for desserts, I don't think they are made in house, and they aren't particularly Portuguese. My cheesecake (was it Crème Brûlée flavor?) was good, with a semi-dry texture, a layer of caramel on top, and a drizzle of something underneath. So overall I was pretty satisfied with Nuno's. 4.5 stars really. To get that 5th star from me they'd only have to improve the broccoli and add ethnic desserts made in house.
