Nova Europa Restaurant is a popular spot among regular visitors, offering a traditional continental atmosphere that is comfortable and welcoming. The staff are friendly and professional, with Manuel, the owner, who has decades of experience, overseeing the cuisine. The menu features classic dishes, including traditional Portuguese options like Calderiada, Caldo Verde, and Bacalau (Cod). Customers have enjoyed dishes such as Octopus, Rockfish, and Tiramisu, along with Scallops in Wine Sauce and Veal Marsala served with rice pilaf and a vegetable medley. The restaurant also offers Filet Mignon, Lobster, and an amazingly tender Octopus, along with options like Salmon and Orange Roughy. Desserts like Chocolate Mousse and Cappuccinos with amaretto are popular, although some found the chocolate cake to be dry. The Twilight Dinner prices are excellent, providing good quantity and value. While the atmosphere remains conservative, the space is well organized, clean, and quiet, making for a pleasant dining experience where guests feel very welcome and well cared for.
