I went with a group of friends and we all tried different things and loved them!6/15/2013 12:00:00 AMJust plain awesome...Once again, Alma Nova delivered. Outstanding food, great service and you can't beat the location. This is one true gem.6/14/2013 12:00:00 AMThe rain didn't prevent usThe rain didn't prevent us from enjoying the ambience of the outdoor fireplace thru the window. Our server didn't rush us, though pne of our party was late. Everyone enjoyed the meals and were thrilled there was a delicious rose offered. The steak special had delicious accompaniments, but the meat itself was tougher than expected. There were no other complaints, Everything else got an A. Delicious cake ordered ahead topped off the eveing. A real treat6/13/2013 12:00:00 AMRestaurant lived up to ourRestaurant lived up to our expectations which were very high based on recomendations we had from friends. Wonderful food, and the menu had a great balance from fish to fowl.6/12/2013 12:00:00 AMAttention to detail!Table for four and we all raved about each course. The starters can be shared in tasting portions Salmon was perfect, the steaks excellent and the halibut divine. Everything presented perfectly..this kitchen crew "gets it".The salads fresh and delicious. The grilled asparagus (over wood), is a great choice. Great wine choices. Kathryn is an excellent server who enjoys her work, her customers and was totally helpful and accommodating with special dietary needs. The rainy night didn't permit patio dining but the al fresco dining would be great overlooking the harbor. We'll be back!6/10/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat food and atmosphereWe ate outside and the views are amazing along with a nice open gas firepit which makes it extremely romantic. The service was kind but slow and unattentive, I am giving them a pass due to us being on the outside couches but if it happened again it would be an issue. The food however is very good and at about $140 for 2 with a bottle of wine, app, 2 mains, and a dessert it is reasonable too.6/9/2013 12:00:00 AMGirls night successWe had a wonderful time, from the moment we walked in the door until we left. Will come back again.6/8/2013 12:00:00 AMAnniversary dinnerMy husband and I were celebrating our 45th ..all the kids came with their husbands and wives...12 of us in all!

From the second we walked in the hostess was right there to greet us and seat us. We were fortunate enough to sit outside,which was unbelievable!!! Our waitress was amazing. The food was absolutely phenomenal!!! Our meals were well proportioned and cooked just perfectly. I can not say enough good things about Paul's Restaurant. Paul is the true Genius in the Family!! Thank you such much for making my girlfriend smile like she's never smiled before!!!6/8/2013 12:00:00 AMAlma Nove Saturday nightEverything was excellent except I could not follow the conversation between my wife (sitting next to me) and my mother (across from me) due to the noise level.6/8/2013 12:00:00 AMGood food and ambienceMy wife and I brought old friends to Alma Nova. It was our first time there and the experience was great. The staff was very friendly and accommodated us when our guest brought along their infant daughter. The Cod cakes are really tasty and my wife said her steak was the best she's had in a restaurant in years. We will definitely come back again and bring more friends.6/7/2013 12:00:00 AMsuper birthday partyI have been to Alma Nova many times but the people that I took there was so excited with the food, the view and the overall experience. It was our friends birthday and they gave her a wonderful dessert as a birthday gift. Just a wonderful place to relax and enjoy we will be back soon as we have another birthday coming up. Just great6/4/2013 12:00:00 AMFabulous Anniversary Dinner!The food and atmosphere were fabulous. Our server was very nice and most accomodating. She brought us a beautiful desert to celebrate our 35th anniversary, which was very much appreciated. I would highly recommend the restaurant, especially for a special occasion.6/4/2013 12:00:00 AM40th Wedding AnniversaryGreat food, great service and definately a romantic place for a wedding anniversary. The attention to detail from our first drink by the fire pit to our dessert, which was kindly on the house for our anniversary made the whole night special. Mary Beth our waitress could not do enough for us. It's nice to have a place on the South Shore by the water and of this quality to save going into the city for those special occasions. It is a place I will definately return and not just for special occasions.6/3/2013 12:00:00 AMWhat an unexpected surprise!What an unexpected surprise! I made an early evening reservation to celebrate my husband's birthday. The greeting staff was friendly and very accommodating when we requested a table outside. The afternoon was beautiful; it was a treat to enjoy the breeze and the views, along with the great food and service. The food was delicious, and our waitress was courteous and attentive, but not "on your face," allowing us to enjoy our food and conversation without rushing us to eat fast and leave the place, which seems to be the style of many restaurants in the Boston area. This restaurant is great for special occasions and a romantic spot at sunset and night; we will definitely return.6/2/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat serviceThe hostess, waitress, and bartenders were very accommodating and kind!
It was a warm beautiful night.. We sat outside.. Gorgeous!6/2/2013 12:00:00 AMExcellent Dining ExperienceAlma Nove was excellent - food and service absolutely exceptional!!! Great place for a special occasion - would highly recommend.6/2/2013 12:00:00 AMPerfect Summer SpotMy husband and I split the roasted red and gold beet salad with goat cheese, endive, and blood orange vinaigrette. It was delicious; even split in two our servings were generous. For the entree he had the wood-grilled swordfish, lobster mashed potatoes, tomato confit and I the Long Island duck breast, gorgonzolla risotto, port fig reduction. Heavenly! For dessert we split the Chocolate Pot de Creme. So rich and creamy. Our server was "Cat" who was helpful with wine selections and took good care of us.
We live in Plymouth and chose Alma Nove for its location in Hingham, easy for our friends in Boston to meet us there for dinner. We had a wonderful evening.6/1/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat food with no hassleenjoy 4-5 star dining without the big city hassle or north end rush.6/1/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat food and serviceWe dined with another couple from the North shore who had never been to alma Nove. This was our fourth time dining there. Service was exceptional and food was very good. We were not rushed. The only negative is the trables are very small, so when several appetizers are being shared, there is very little room and the manuevering can be tricky.6/1/2013 12:00:00 AMALWAYS AMAZING!!Never disappoints! I go often so when I have a chance I try the specials which are always amazing!6/1/2013 12:00:00 AMReturnWe've saved Alma Nova for special times in the summer. Our friends have enjoyed it as well. We have selected it both for the generally fine food and the view on the outside terrace.5/30/2013 12:00:00 AMWarmth, elegance, and great food!We went to Alma Nove to celebrate our anniversary with friends who were also celebrating their aniversary. The decor was warm and welcoming and the pace was calming, steady, and comforting. Despite the grey overcast day, we felt warm and cozy, staring at the outside fire and the sea beyond. The waitstaff were friendly and respectful, attentive, but not hovering, and answered our questions completely. Two of us ordered the soup and sandwhich special and it was just perfect fare for a cold rainy day. The others ordered fish dishes, each of which was cooked to perfection.
It was the right venue for a perfect celebration. We will go back and urge you to go, as well.5/26/2013 12:00:00 AMOutstandingIt's no wonder that everyone raves about Alma Nove. Each dish was beautifully prepared and delicious. The service was attentive but not rushed. It's expensive, which makes it a "special occasion" restaurant. However, we definitely felt we got what we paid for. If you're considering a visit, don't hesitate. We might try lunch on the outdoor patio, overlooking the marina, next time.5/24/2013 12:00:00 AMSpecial OccasionFrom the moment we entered, the service was very nice. The caesar salad was fresh and tasty. The salmon and the steak dinners had excellent flavor. For a special occasion, the price was worth paying.5/24/2013 12:00:00 AMYet againI have dined at Alma Nove more than once and lunched often and find it a very nice experience each time. I brought a friend from out of state and her experince matched mine.5/21/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat FoodGreat Food on the south shore! Kind of on the noisy side5/20/2013 12:00:00 AMHappy AnniversaryWe went to Alma Nove to celebrate our wedding anniversary and the entire staff made it a most memorable evening. The lady who served us made several suggestions on the menu that were outstanding. A complimentary dessert to cap off a great meal was most appreciated. We look forward to returning.5/20/2013 12:00:00 AMVery Good, Not GreatGood food, nice server, nothing wrong with what we got, but a tad bit pricey for what we received.5/18/2013 12:00:00 AMAnniversary dinnerMy wife and I had a really nice night and thank you Alma Nove and our waitress Amanda for "remembering" our 30th anniversary5/17/2013 12:00:00 AMWonderful for Mother's DayWe had a fabulous lunch and cant wait to go back! Service, Food and views just wonderful! I dont even want to wait for an occasion to go back, I am just planning on it.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMmothers day lunchReally good food, the apps, pasta and dessert were great. The main dishes were ok. The setting is really nice and makes the experience feel special.The waitresses were all great. Some of the hostesses were great but we also had a negative experience with one of the managers. I would recommend it for drinks and snacks outside or for a special occasion if you're going for a meal.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMDinner onlyWe chose this place for Mother's Day brunch but failed to realize they don't serve brunch which was dissapointing. They don't really have lunch fair either, and the waitress kept saying "tonight we have" even though it was 11am. Just felt obnoxious. The dinner fare was delicious and the location is great. I'll just keep it in mind for dinner only in the future.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMAlways good~!Good food, good service (and it was Mother's Day!)5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat restaurantThe food and the ambience was great.

The food was outstanding & the service was great. Chef Paul greeted us as we arrived. You can't find a better restaurant than Alma Nove. Can't wait to go back.5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMperfect venue for leisurelyperfect venue for leisurely dinner with good friends - always an atmosphere that supports a nice evening out5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMLove the food!You can't go wrong here, great food, great spot on the water.5/8/2013 12:00:00 AMLOUDFood was delicious, service was great, restaurant was beautiful, but it was way too loud.
My wife and I could hardly hear each other talk.
We have been a few times, but we will not be going back again.5/4/2013 12:00:00 AMHad a great dinner with someHad a great dinner with some long time friends! Servers were super friendly and made good recommendations. Food and wine was incredible! I only wished it was warmer to have been able to dine on the patio. The views of the Marina were gorgeous. Chef/owner came out to chat with patrons. An all around lovely experience!5/3/2013 12:00:00 AMAll around great dining experienceI have dined at Alma Nove on at least three occasions, and have been very pleased each time. Excellent selections and service was outstanding. Portions are favorable, as well. Most recently had the scallops which were the best I've had. Very succulent, on the large side, and cooked to perfection. I'll be back!5/3/2013 12:00:00 AMOutstanding restaurant with a viewThe restaurant is located behind outlet mall, next to the marina. We visited in the late evening, and we still got the great vibe of the area. The outdoor seating with a central fireplace looked like a great place to enjoy a drink with friend on a cool evening.
The menu is Mediterranean, with a primary focus on Italian food, mostly seafood focused. We had their version of a Caprese salad with roasted eggplant and burrata, and it was delicious. My wife had the Prosciutto-wrapped cod with the shrimp Risotto, and the flavors complemented each other well. The wine list is approachable and reasonably priced. Our waiter was okay, not great. It was close to closing, so we didn't mind. Hopefully it was a fluke.
We will definitely return!5/1/2013 12:00:00 AMAlma Nove in the Hingham ShipyardAlma Nove in the Hingham Shipyard is an excellent suburban find. The decor is lovely and though always crowded, it is possible to carry on a conversation. The food is inventive but simple and very flavorful. Would definitely make a return visit to be able to sample the rest of the menu.4/27/2013 12:00:00 AMThe food was excellent. OurThe food was excellent. Our waitress was fantastic.
My original reservation was for 7 people. At the last minute I found out that 2 additional people would be joining us and the restaurant was very accommodating.4/27/2013 12:00:00 AMAlma Nove has always beenAlma Nove has always been a favorite local restaurant of ours, however our most recent meal there was less than stellar. My husbands sirloin steak was tough and chewy. My swordfish was ok, but not as tasty as I've had it before and the lobster mashed potatoes which normally have rather large chunks if lobster in them, had small pieces I could barely find. Maybe it was just an off night for Alma Nove - and I really hope that is the case because its a great place.4/27/2013 12:00:00 AMScallops Rock!My scallops rocked! Also, my husbands steak was cooked perfectly. The flour less chocolate cake was ok, not great.4/25/2013 12:00:00 AMThe restaurant has a beautifulThe restaurant has a beautiful view. We were there on a miserable stormy night and the restaurant was cozy with the outdoor fire burning and the smell of the wood grill.4/23/2013 12:00:00 AMvery goodFood is good would like more flatbread, steak and chicken offerings. Great wine and drink menu. Service is awesome ask for Catherine she is amazing!4/21/2013 12:00:00 AMWe were surprised how goodWe were surprised how good the food was.
