• Mediterranean • Northvale

Booked 17 times today

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.

Even though it was one of the busiest nights for a restaurant (2/14), the service was excellent with our attentive waiter. The food was delicious as usual (with a new twist on the burrata appetizer) and portions were generous. There were extra touches with the balloons and chocolate.

Food was amazing as always. The only thing I didn’t love was sitting in the booth next to the door. There is no cushion to lean on making that one booth seat very uncomfortable. Food and staff were great!
