Best Cosy Restaurants in Novi

Brunch was perfectly served quickly and piping hot. The ambiance is hands down best in Oakland County. Cozy fireplace, modern yet soothing decor appreciated. Looking forward to having dinner here

Everything was excellent , the ambiance the food and the drinks . The hostess was a lovely woman who made us feel welcome from the moment we stepped in . The only critique I have is that we were ready to pay the bill , but our server didn’t come back to the table for awhile so we had to ask for him . Overall though, lovely establishment . We will be back .

Great experience as always. The food is excellent. Seating was a little crowded on Valentine’s Day.

My college roommate form early 80's and I started reviewing restaurants in the Metro Detroit Area 4 years ago. We have hit 80% of all the top restaurants (over 120) and we both consider Café' Cortina in our top 2-3 restaurants. I am not sure that I would take children under 14 there, only because of the complexity of the menu/food, and it seems like most of the servers have strong accents that are not always easy to understand. With that said I love going there about every 4-5 weeks and trying something different each time. Last night I had lamb chops. They may have been the best I have ever had. I savored every bite. I have had lamb chops at many nice restaurants. There pasta's are all made in house and are always exciting to try a different one. Make sure you save room for desert, as their pastry chef makes some very unique and tasty treats. This is probably one of the least known restaurants in Metro Detroit, a hidden gem for sure.

We love George he was great!! I recommend the beef shawarma plate it was so flavorful and fun to enjoy with red wine!
