    My second visit to Nolia was even better than the first - didn’t think that was possible! Food, service, and ambiance are all 10/10, “no notes”. Best restaurant in the city!!

    Went with three friends. Ordered two orders of fried oysters, which were delicious. All of us were very pleased with our entrées, which were generous enough for us to take home some for lunch the next day. Our waitress was a delight and very helpful. Unfortunately, there was a group of five that sat down at the table behind us and proceeded to talk to the whole room instead of to each other. This is not so much of fault of the acoustics in the restaurant as it is that some people have never learned to turn down the volume when they are in the public space. People, please try to be more mindful of others when you’re in public spaces.
