From its humble beginnings in the quaint Hudson River town of Piermont, New York, Olar was known for serving up rustic Neapolitan pies, classic Spanish tapas, and hand crafted pastas that drew in both locals and foodies from all parts of New Jersey, upstate New York, and New York City and kept them coming back for over a decade.Now in its new location in Northvale, New Jersey, the restaurant, now known as Olar Noso - which means "our home" in Galego, the language spoken in Galicia where the Dominguez family is from - is an evolution in not only name alone.They have managed to scale the restaurant concept generously while replicating the quality and preserving the reputation the former Olar had garnered over the years. Evolving into Olar Noso meant giving Olar's loyal customers everything they loved, while also enhancing their experience with more seating, more elbow room, a full bar, a private event space, and, finally, ample parking.

We have eaten here numerous times and do enjoy the food and it’s close to us. I had done a review during g the summer so don’t want to repeat my praise’s as I do really enjoy this restaurant but I am still disappointed in the quality of the bread and dipping sauces that are offered are way to salty! If you’re going to advertise as quality Italian style restaurant the first thing we see and taste is the bread ! Your amazing food offerings need to be acompanied by good , crunchy, delicious pane !!some quality dipping oils would be great too!!

Owner Anya was so sweet! Had great conversation with her. Servers came around with choices of meat very often and the buffet for sides was very nice! Would love to come back again. The meat was flavorful and cooked very well.
