Review Summary

Nora Gray is frequently praised for its intimate, cozy atmosphere and its selection of high-quality, flavorful Italian-inspired dishes, particularly the fresh pasta and seasonal offerings. Many diners highlight the attentive, knowledgeable staff and the vibrant energy of the space as key factors in an enjoyable evening. However, recurring feedback points to concerns regarding high price points relative to small portion sizes, as well as inconsistencies in food preparation and service pacing. While some guests find the dining experience to be exceptional and well worth a visit, others feel the value does not always align with their expectations, noting that the restaurant can become quite loud and occasionally chilly in colder months.

This place is so mid. The food is mediocre, service is meh & it's super expensive. Spent near 70 bucks on a steak that wasn't cooked properly(they made it well done…). Every dish other than the focaccia was pretty bland. Just go somewhere else & save your money.

This place is great. We thoroughly enjoyed it. The special tonight was a the sausage with polenta. It was absolutely delicious. The bartender & waitress kept my thirst quenched with beautifully crafted mocktails.

We were a group of 7. They usually don't do à-la-carte service for groups above 6, but they accommodated us without a fuss. Lovely professional staff.

I would absolutely go back soon.

Have visited numerous times. Some of the best pasta we've had, in a fun & vibrant atmosphere.

Je suis vraiment triste d'avoir été déçu par Nora Gray, j'avais vraiment hâte d'y aller. Au lieu du décor romantique intimiste que j'attendais, on retrouve des tons sombres digne de ces vieux restaurants italiens new yorkais, sans le kitch, & un bar où tout le monde s'écrase les uns contre les autres. Les tables sont des tables de diners tristes. Nôtre focaccia était servi froide, sans aucune épices ou condiment pour relever. L'huile d'olive est en supplément. Mes pâtes ont été servis froides; j'ai du les renvoyer, & on m'a expliqué qu'avec une sauce pesto c'est normal que ce soit tiède (à 45$ le plat c'est dur à avaler… & faux, d'autant que la deuxième fois c'était chaud). Celles de ma femme était bonne mais quelconque. Mais la cerise sur le gâteau, ou plutôt le fromage sur les pâtes, c'est le parmesan rapé facturé 4$. Jamais je n'avais vu ça de ma vie, ni ici ni en Italie. Je suis soufflé. Le vin est lui aussi hors de prix, bien la carte soit archi complete. On regrette qu'il n'y ait que très peu de choix au verre (pas les meilleurs).
Heureusement la soirée est sauvée par un service souriant & patient, qui écoute & met le client au centre de l'expérience. Si les plats coûtaient 15$ Nora Gray pourrait devenir une cantine pour le midi, mais pour une « date » plus jamais.
