We were wondering the streets of SLO looking for a lunch location that would offer vegan options. Due to COVID only outside seating is available, however this wasn't a bad thing. Their patio is beautiful, quaint and peaceful. We started with Brussels sprouts, which were...fantastic! We ordered a BLTA, caprese sandwich, pasta and 3 orders of nachos (vegi, ahi and carnitas). The food was fresh and delicious! We will definitely return when back in SLO!More

Novo, on the canal, checks all the boxes Social distanced and all key protocols? Check Personal and attentive staff? check Top of the line food, prepared well? check Attractive setting on the water? check It came together so nicely, that we decided to come back...the next night.More

Artsy food you could find off a trendy food truck but at much higher prices. The Scenery was nice but the menu is not very descriptive of what comes to your table.More

Covid is real and its a bummer but the people at novo made us feel as if it wasn't happening. Beautiful ambience, great food, wonderful service. They are making it work.

Creekside dining outside! No worries for COVID-19. I had the fresh Halibut and it was delicious. The patio is just the right temperature to dine outside. This chef is making a lot better meals than the last. My friend had the lamb chops and said...they were the best she has ever had.More

Never disappoints. Love sitting on the patio. Great wine by the glass, lovely service and small plates are always excellent. Lovely servers, they brought out blankets for me and my daughter! Favorite place to eat in SLO.

The restaurant was well organized. I felt safe throughout the meal. We sat next to the creek and had three shared plates...calamari, samosas, spring rolls. We splurged with a key lime cream cheese pie. Good serving amounts and nice atmosphere on the patio. It was...a deli style..walk up to order and a server brought the meal.More
