Novo

This place is absolutely amazing. The people are great and the food will knock your socks off. We had the lettuce wrap a black bean burger and a salmon salad and all three were just delicious. If you eat at one place in San Luis Obispo make sure it’s this one. The seating is also excellent outside just right next to the river.

Love this place!!! The food and creekside terrace are amazing, everything is done with care and ingredients are so fresh! Our server Lea was fantastic. Love coming back here on each trip through the area

We came in on a Saturday night and got a seat on their beautiful patio right away. Both the cocktails and the non alcoholic drinks were great! The brussel sprouts were a perfect appetizer for the table to share. We ordered a wide variety of food and it was all perfect! Our table tried the Thai curry, red curry, duck, lemon pasta, and ribeye and loved all of it. They also had lots of dessert options, with the best creme brûlée and key lime pie we’ve ever had! The prices were also very fair for the quality and location!

Really cool restaurant right on the creek. Dog friendly. Great service and amazing food. Very underrated spot.

A Californian fusion restaurant as it offers quite a few Asian dishes. If course, we skipped those, with the exception of the shrimp roll which I thought was good, but the skin was kind of dried up (probably made ahead). The scallops were wonderfully delicious, cooked just right, great sauce. The racks of lamb were pretty good, a bit overcooked. Of course, the patio seating area was a great place to enjoy these delicious dishes!

35 years of visiting SLO, we can always depend on NOVO for one of the most outstanding locations (sit outside above the river if you can), stellar service - shout out to, KAYA, and from start to finish, the entire meal is always perfection. NOVO always make our 5 star list and they take reservations, so us out of towner's can enjoy! Shout it out... NOVO!!

We ordered takeout. Korean ribs were a bit overdone and tough. Roasted brussel sprouts and samosa were pretty good.

rom the get go, Novo made out special night even more so. We were celebrating our anniversary and when we first walked up to the table, there was a card stating "Happy Anniversary....". I thought this was a warm gesture to begin our night. I tried their filet mignon and it was a phenomenal. The carrots were spot on, and the fingerling potatoes were delicious. The ambiance was inviting and the sound of music played in the distant background. We had dinner reservations and was seated on the large patio, and could see the small creek below. I suggest bringing a cover up / sweater, as you will be seated outdoors. This is a trendy restaurant with style and class. 2 thumbs up.

Did not see the inside. Was on way to museum - had an hour to kill. The appetizer s we're good the drink was cute and I am sure would be good for s hot day. The view of stream was Fab!. Waitress was knowledgeable. Will return to try the menu Donner's. They looked big and delicious.

Dog friendly heated patio. Excellent food, service and beautiful setting. Went back again yesterday 6/7/20 and we're able to order in front, sit in patio and had a delicious lobster eggs Benedict special, beautiful presentation
