Opificio In Novara

Very welcoming restaurant in Novara, at 15 minutes walking distance from the Castle. The plates were well cooked and well presented, tasty and pleasant. The service was attentive and empathic. The price is correct for the quality. Very nice experience, I highly recommend to stop by.

Frequentiamo questo locale ormai da diversi anni e ogni occasione è stata unica. Menù studiato e alternativo, abbinamenti di vini consigliati e sempre azzeccati. In questo ristorante si assaggiano piatti che non troverete da nessuna parte. Così come i piatti lo stesso vale per i vini, ricercati e molto particolari. Sempre gentilmente consigliati da Fabio.

Nice place, good food, courteous and attentive staff, the only thing is the quantity of food for what you paid. Too expensive for how much I ate. It's true that I did the proposed formula €20 first course, second course, dessert, water and coffee. So far so good... When the dishes arrived I was disappointed. On the hazelnut and zola rice the price was around 70 grams of rice but the hazelnuts and zola rightly raise the price, when I get the second one there are three, 3, meatballs (50-60 grams) and 30-40 grams maximum of potatoes and a square centimeter of millefeuille.

Cozy atmosphere, very beautiful and particular place. Everyone is very kind and smiling. Highly recommended

If there were infinite stars I would give them, this place is the right balance between professionalism, serenity and seriousness! The owner and the staff are exquisite people, exactly like the dishes offered! A continuous pleasure in tasting the various dishes! We would have tasted everything! Very importantly they have a variety of dishes even for those with celiac disease☺️

Experience repeated 3 times in the short term... Really special.. Refined and particular dishes but at the same time made simple. The only ones in Novara to treat lake fish with respect... High-quality staff who love this job and love to tell stories, always with respect and discretion towards the customer... Really, sincerely, perfect... I really hope for a continuity... Well done!

It is always a pleasure to return to the Opificio, whether for an aperitif or dinner or after dinner. The welcome, the availability and friendliness are always assured. Special care and attention that never fails. Thanks Fabio and your staff

Beautiful location, original dishes but expensive considering the small portions

Passing through Novara, I stopped in this restaurant attracted by the name. Very nice environment, with those retro 70s cinema seats which were incredibly comfortable. Fabio is very courteous, polite, kind and thoughtful without however becoming rude. It makes you feel very good. Excellent food, correct quantities and very good quality. Correct price. WELL DONE!!

Inizialmente ero un po’ scettico a causa del menù un po’ fuori dall’ordinario, con accostamenti e abbinamenti particolari, essendo io abbastanza tradizionalista. Mi sono dovuto ricredere. I Tajerin al Ragù di e uova di Trota sono eccellenti, così come la trota marinata. I costi sono leggermente sopra la media, giustificati dalla qualità delle materie prime utilizzate. Servizio estremamente gentile, locale ricavato da un ex fabbrica di candele, arredato con finezza e gusto. Organizzano spesso serate musicali con pianoforte. Presente anche una bottega con prodotti di alta qualità. I gestori sono stati molto disponibili anche nel raccontarci la storia del locale. Se devo fare un solo appunto, nella veranda chiusa con una struttura di ferro e vetro, faceva un po’ freddino. Se dovessimo tornare a Novara, sicuramente passeremo di nuovo a mangiare da loro.
