An absolutely delightful place to have lunch. Outdoors..and amazing patio with giant oak tree spreading its branches over diners. I ordered a BLT and the minute I bit in it, my tastebuds danced, for the tomato reminded me of my Mom's incredible tomatoes at our Wisconsin home. It was soooo good. My Mango Spetizer was the perfect accompliment. Definitely recommend reservations for it is downtown SLO.

Love this cute restaurant at a small town of San Luis Obispo. Love their outdoor patio. Dog friendly restaurant. Fusion food, dishes that we ordered all of them are good. Staffs are nice. We actually came back twice while visiting there. Price decent. We walked to the restaurant since it’s a distance walk from our hotel. We made rsvp the 2nd time. First time was walking in and lucky they had a table available. So they do take walk in. They can get pack though. It’s very cute town also. Can walk around after for digestions.

We were looking for a place to eat in SLO that allowed dogs. Novo has a massive deck overlooking a creek. We sat at the edge of the restaurant right by a bridge and a footpath. Perfect seat as we had to duck a couple of times to give our dog a chance to relieve himself. Staff was friendly and food came out quickly.

Visited midday on Sunday and ordered from a limited 3-5 pm menu. The food arrived quick and every one of the food items were very well prepared and the shrimp spring rolls were remarkably fresh. Similarly, the lavender and the elderflower cocktails were tasty, thought too heavy on the ice and unexpectedly, served in thick water glasses, which stole from the experience. The waiter was friendly and gave recommendations for food and drinks. The front of the restaurant is well decorated, but the true delight is the patio deck, on top of the green and tranquil creek.

Randomly stopped here to grab a bite to eat and it was so delicious! We ordered a Hamburger and a BLTA. Fresh tomatoes, avocado, and lettuce on the hamburger. Really cute seating and environment on the back patio.

Our host, Christopher was so knowledgeable with items on the menu and sensitive to my gluten allergies; double checking on items to make sure they were safe for me to enjoy. He came back to check on us multiple times as did other waiters to refill our water glasses. The Nada Colada mocktail was to die for. Be prepared to eat art as every dish had the appearance of a masterpiece, which I appreciate. I gave 4/5 stars on food as I do feel the flavors could be elevated on some dishes such as the cauliflower soup and coconut pie. We will be back and are delighted that our furr babies can join us out on the patio. Views of creekside made for a fine dining experience.

It was a perfect night at NOVO for our last day on our SLO vacation. Food was delicious and we really loved the ambiance at lanai( patio) table. Our server was great and definitely we’ll be back here next time we are in SLO. Thank you for the wonderful evening!

What a beautiful setting... Everything was wonderful except the spice level on the Thai curry dish was VERY spicy. The waiter said it was "a little spicy." I needed extra rice because it was so spicy. I was charged three dollars for the rice. That was a little surprising. I still would've gotten rice, it just would've been nice to know that before the bill came. My wife's dish, the lemon pasta, was excellent. We would definitely be back
