“I went to eat here for the first time today with friends I used to work with. We heard that the owner used to work at Italia Mia which is now closed and now own this restaurant. We always had a salad and pizza there so we ordered the same thing here. The sausage, pepperoni and mushroom pizza was absolutely delicious. The thin crust was incredible!! Nice ambience also.“

“I had short rib stuffed ravioli and my husband had the Swordfish special. Food is amazing. Well done!!“

“Novu Bistro serves delicious food and beverages. The waitresses are friendly and engaging. We didn’t wait long for anything and we were a large group. The owners, Tony and Kat, are gracious and hospitable! I loved that the music was low for great conversations! I highly recommend this St. Pete gem!!“

“Amazing! Couldn’t have asked for a better waitress, she was so kind. The food was AMAZING! The fettuccine was BOMBB!! Everything came out pretty fast! Don’t listen to those reviews, we were a little worried but absolutely obsessed and will be coming back next year! One of the best.“

“Food was excellent Service was great.“

“First try, never knew this place was here.. hidden Gem.. food is decent, portion size is fantastic. I got ravioli, didnt know it came with garlic bread and a salad.. I was so full!! I'd pay 10 bucks for all that, any day... versus 12 at McDonalds.. yuck.. this was great!“

“I've been coming here for years. The pizza & salads are equally delicious. What blew me away this time is I accidentally left my debit card and I got a phone call pretty quickly from the store letting me know and keeping it safe until I could return to pick it up. Thank you so much!“

“Great Thin crust pizza and the sauce is really good. Fresh ingredients, limited menu during the pandemic, so we will be back to check out more of the menu when things are back to normal. Desert was good, we had a delicious canoli to go... service was great. Totally Chicago style atmosphere, crispy thin crust pizza.“

“Pizza has always been great for the many years we've been getting it. I'm not sure if the owner is the one that has gone to a call center but it totally takes away from the family owned pizza joint. Won't order again and it's very sad.“

“Amazing food served by amazing people! You won’t be disappointed!“

“best environment ever amazing place to work I have not had job like this where I can be myself and have courage that my crew family has made me a better person. Christina is amazing boss and loving ❤ friend I'm so happy I am apart of her family. love this place hands down.!!!!!!“

“The manager Michelle is absolutely amazing, she is there ever day almost all day, whom ever the owner is I hope they pays her well and takes good care of her. She deals with some wild customers but she always is so kind, my food is always hot and good. Michelle is the best, the other girl named Meika is amazing customer service , so sweet and kind and always ready to help. She's always helpful to the manager and smiles when you come in. Love this location“

“We always order 2 of the cheesy Howie Breads and 1 of the Chicken Caesar Salads there but with the Greek dressing. It fills us both up, and it is such a delicious combination. Not all of the Hungry Howie stores have the Caesar Salad, and the Howie Bread is different from store to store. But this store definitely has and makes both really well.“

“Eat at Angelo's every single week! Also watch all my sports there at the bar, tons of tv's. The crew is awesome and the atmosphere is always fun and relaxed. Can't go wrong with any of the food...pizza, philly's, gyro's, wings, salads...all great and high quality. They're open till 3:30am every day too...can't freakin' beat this place! AND they have the BEST Happy Hour deals in all of St.Pete! Oh and their breakfast sandwiches are amazing!!“

“I have a large office and have ordered from here a few times now and Taverris does a wonderfull job preparring our pizza and getting it to us nice and hot and on time will keep ordering this is our new favorite place for pizza and wings“
