Everything was great. It’s expensive but so worth it. Split a delicious salad with bruleed goat cheese and pears as well as steak frites which was made with a strip steak. 10 out of 10 on everything.

Wonderful spot for a romantic birthday dinner. Our waiter was extremely knowledgeable about the menu and was attentive and kind. Every dish that we ordered was flavorful and filling. The portions are rather large so next time we will share more of our meal.

My second visit to Nolia was even better than the first - didn’t think that was possible! Food, service, and ambiance are all 10/10, “no notes”. Best restaurant in the city!!
