I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Novara

11/03/2026: Excellent food and professional staff

10/03/2026: What a great find! Even though it's close to home, we'd never tried it before. The place specializes in grilled meats and pizza. We tried the tomahawk and I have to say it was sublime. The staff was kind and attentive. Next time we'd like to try the pizza, which looked really inviting.

18/04/2026: I don't usually write reviews, but these guys deserve it. We went for lunch during the week. The service is above average, even just the welcome entree gives you a sense of the level of care and attention. The portions are just right, excellent quality. You'll be satisfied when you finish your meal. We were even more impressed with the bill; in our opinion, the prices are low compared to what they offer. So, congratulations, we'll be back and spread the word. Places like this deserve to grow!

14/04/2026: We arrived at the restaurant almost by chance, after asking a passerby where to eat, and were in for a very pleasant surprise. The service was impeccable from start to finish, with friendly, competent, and attentive staff, without being intrusive. The food exceeded every expectation: carefully prepared dishes, harmonious flavors, and a truly exceptional blend that speaks of the care and passion put into the kitchen. Even the details make the difference, like the clean and meticulously maintained bathrooms, which is not always a given. A complete and very positive experience. Definitely a place to return to.

19/04/2026: Excellent service with very, very polite staff. Delicious food, truly excellent.

03/04/2026: Impeccable welcome and service. Refined and discreet location. High-quality products and presentation, excellent wines. A very positive experience, highly recommended!

10/11/2025: At the OK Bar in Castelletto Ticino, you can find excellent breakfasts in the morning, delicious coffee, and a nice roaster that also sells excellent coffee. The cakes are also very good. Lake Maggiore is just a few steps away.

24/10/2025: At Ok Bar, you truly feel at home. A refined and welcoming establishment, run by extraordinary people who combine professionalism and warmth. You don't come here just for a coffee—which, incidentally, is excellent and hand-roasted on-site—but to indulge in a moment of true relaxation. It's the ideal place for a leisurely break, a chat with friends, and that pleasant sense of familiarity that only Ok can offer.

03/12/2025: Delicious food, superb pizza, excellent service with attentive and caring staff. Prices are absolutely reasonable and justified. Congratulations.

22/11/2025: The kindness was excellent and the dishes served were excellent and tasty. We will definitely be back.

06/04/2026: ...we've been coming for years and it's always a wonderful experience. The food and organization are super efficient, and the staff are incredibly friendly! Definitely worth a try! 😊👍

16/11/2025: Fantastic! We really had a great time. The location is stunning. The service is very attentive. The dishes are exquisitely refined, a return to the past that leaves the customer satisfied. We'll be back because it was truly worth it! The chef is kind and helpful.

12/10/2025: Truly everything excellent, great choice, quality and speed of service.

10/09/2025: Fantastic, the food is exquisite and very well cared for To recommend

22/02/2026: If you're in Galliate or the surrounding area and looking for a place to eat, don't miss the opportunity to try this place. Excellent food and super welcoming owners. Highly recommended.

15/02/2026: We went there for dinner with friends and family and had a really good time. Spectacular food, excellent service, a family atmosphere, and super friendly and approachable owners. Everything was delicious, but an honorable mention goes to the tiramisu, which was out of this world for me. Highly recommended. Excellent value for money. I can't wait to go back again.

15/06/2025: Excellent ice cream and then very kind and helpful staff. Recommended!

06/06/2025: Delicious ice cream!!! Very kind and friendly staff. Highly recommended!

24/02/2026: There was a fixed menu for €13, but we opted for the a la carte menu. Disappointed with the appetizer, cured meats, and cheeses for €9, perhaps it was right not to expect more... the sore point for me was her majesty the paniscia! It was just a creamy risotto with beans, that's all! The great chef expects it and prepares it this way, but life isn't a paniscia. You can drink it à la carte.

14/02/2026: The service and food are truly excellent. The chef's risottos are out of this world. We've tried several dishes, and they've always been top-notch. The atmosphere is quiet and relaxing, almost like being at home. Highly recommended.

04/05/2026: A very nice place near the center of Novara. We tried the "friendship spadellata," a very nice and original idea. Everything was delicious at a fair and honest price... the only complaint we made to the staff was that the pasta was cooked a little too al dente, which ruined the deliciousness of the tomato sauce with buffalo mozzarella and basil!!! The pasta was a little on the thin side; a tip, given how good it is, is that an extra 100 grams wouldn't hurt... and customers would leave truly satisfied... as was the chef's platter; it was delicious and satisfying because the portion was perfect!!! The service was very professional, and we appreciated the change of cutlery from the platter to the pasta. The coffee, in my opinion, was also very good.

24/04/2026: Welcoming atmosphere, super friendly staff. Quality food.

08/03/2026: Top post fresh fish very good starters and first courses amazing not to mention the second courses fried and grilled superlatives I recommend you take a look

02/03/2026: We returned to Lello's after a long time. The dishes met our expectations. Excellent food and fresh fish. Thanks to Mrs. Renata, who advised us and accommodated our requests. Highly recommended.

10/04/2026: Lakefront restaurant, with the option of dining al fresco overlooking the water with background music. We had the fish soup served in a pan. After eating half of it, it was taken back to the kitchen to clean the rest and add the linguine. Spectacular. Reasonable prices. Friendly and helpful service.

07/04/2026: An exceptional experience at Il Rapanello! Everything was absolutely perfect: impeccable service, incredibly refined dishes, and a perfectly chosen wine to enhance the entire experience. A true haute cuisine experience. I highly recommend it!

30/03/2026: When you enter this place, you feel like you've stepped back into the 1950s. A trattoria with just a few tables, a husband and wife team serving the dishes, and the grandmother 👵 sitting at a table in front of the cashier checking out the food. I recommend starting with the traditional appetizer, then deciding whether to continue with the first course or the second course. In any case, the flavors of these dishes aren't gourmet; they'll tickle your taste buds. I'll definitely be back.

29/03/2026: The food, the atmosphere, the service, the location—everything was perfect. A fantastic place!

06/03/2026: Friendly service, delicious pizza with exceptionally good dough, and a lovely ambiance in the glass-enclosed conservatory; the location right on the street is still pleasant and easily accessible. The seafood pasta was tasty, but rather average compared to the pizza. The prices are fair, and the overall value is good. Just barely five stars and a great choice for a relaxed pizza experience on Lake Maggiore.

04/02/2026: We had the pleasure of dining here on a Saturday evening during a weekend getaway. The owner of the B&B where we were staying (Villa Preziosa) recommended this place to us, and we thank him. We tried a Margherita, paccheri alla norma, and octopus Galician-style. Everything was truly excellent, highly recommended! Thank you so much.
