I had high hopes but we just didn't love it. Service was great. Food was just ok, wine pours seemed small. Steak was overly salty, salmon was good, fried cauliflower tasted like fish-but not in a good way.
I love Novel. Their menus are all quirky and changing. The location is quaint and pocketed away in the Crossroads. The staff is all friendly and attentive. Food and drinks are AMAZING. The price is also very fair for what you get, and the presentation is some of the best I've experienced. Please, go to Novel if you get the chance!
First time at Novel. Started with the butternut squash ravioli - excellent, very tasty, and loved the different flavors in each bite.For our entrees, we ordered:Seared diver scallopsPrime reserve KC stripPortion sizes were decent. The entrees themselves were very salty: drowned out the other flavors. I’d read other reviewers share these same sentiments and hoped something had changed.Overall alright experience. Atmosphere were great, service was fine. Starter was excellent. Entrees were good if not for the excessive salt.
So expensive for the quality of food ! We went two coples of friends and none of us like the food . We ordered terrine , tartar , soup and Pasta raviolis , Tagliatelle. Any of those were good . It is a nice place but the food 01 . Also the plates of pasta were so small!
I consider this to be one of the best fine dining experiences in Kansas City. I particularly loved the duck neck aglonotti - the pickled cherry was such a nice pop of flavor. The scallops and key lime pie were also phenomenal.
This place was amazing Tonight... I had the scallops and they were on point the whole dish for that matter... tried the Remington and had 2 of The Cures very well crafted cocktails.... I will definitely be back for desert for sure. Very well team oriented with the table service and atmosphere...
My husband and I had an unexpected date night. We wanted to try something new and started looking for cool restaraunts downtown. We didn't have reservations (Saturday night 6pm) but they got us right in at the bar. The staff was knowledgeable about the menu and very friendly. My husband got the lobster Ramen and it really made me wish I liked seafood because it looked amazing. I did taste the Ramen without lobster and it was amazing! I got the chicken with risotto and too was amazing. The chicken was cooked perfectly and had a great flavor.
Swung by for restaurant week. Portions we great and the food excellent. Red sauce that the pork belly was covered in as the side for the pork chop was amazing, same with the lobster ravioli. Our waitress knew her stuff and the staff overall clearly knew how to operate first class. Worth it for a special treat!
