Some friends took us to Novak's for lunch, driving us all the way from McMinnville, OR to do it. All I can say is now I understand why. The staff, and especially the owner, radiated friendliness. And, having never had authentic Hungarian food, it was...absolutely delectable. German kinds of meat dishes, but far more subtly flavored and textured, as if the best of northern and southern European cuisine had been combined to make something better than either alone. I ordered the shepherds plate, a sampler entree. It arrived hot, pleasingly arranged, and in decent time. Every mouthful was a pleasure! Our party ordered the dessert plate and the six desserts we shared were, to the last one, balanced and neither overly sweet or too heavy in texture. I'm definitely coming back, and doing it sooner rather than later. A well deserved five stars!More
