Bar Novanta

Best Known For

Gnocchi Gorgonzola: housemade potato gnocchi, filled with gorgonzola, in a creamy mushroom sauce.

From the streets of Rome to Melbourne's north, Bar Novanta on High Street in Epping delivers Italian cuisine with a modern twist. A trendy fit-out of polished wood features blends seamlessly with vibrant red and black chairs, while geometric copper pendents cast a warm glow as guests ponder an authentic menu, with all dishes available as a gluten-free option. Using only fresh, seasonal ingredients, say buon appetito to eggplant chips topped with Parmesan and Napoli dipping sauce; before pasta temptations like housemade pappardelle with beef ragu, slow-cooked in tomato sauce. Those looking to pick up a slice of pizza may opt for gamberi – tomatoes, mozzarella and garlic prawns; while grilled swordfish, cherry tomato sauce, roast potatoes and salad will impress seafood lovers.
