We’ve all got our favorite store that we check in on periodically, the one where there’s always an incentive to circle back every couple of weeks for the latest drop. And when it comes to restaurants, we like to circle back to Nobie’s, the lighthearted and romantic farm-to-table restaurant in a tiny house in Montrose, because the place is always doing something new, unexpected, and consistently tasty.
The inside of Nobie’s is tiny but never feels cramped. It’s cozy and full of charm, with lighting set to a warm hue of amber. The music, exclusively played via vinyl records, can be loud but never disturbing, and every staff member treats you like a longtime regular, like you’ve been waiting for the latest drop. At Nobie’s, you can be comfortable. Glance around the dining room and you’re likely to see a couple canoodling, longtime friends giggling over tartare, or a solo diner slinging back Gulf coast oysters at the bar.

When it comes to food, everything at Nobie’s feels honest and intentional. There are a bunch of mainstays, like tenderloin steak tartare, but most of the menu gets refreshed or rotated out every few months, so it’s easy for Nobie’s to always feel exciting even when it feels familiar. Even amongst the rotating menu items, dishes like the roasted chicken and bolognese pasta feel familiar, like something you could make in your own kitchen (but probably better).
Nobie’s has something for everyone, which is why the reservations are often booked out weeks in advance. But you can always drop by right when the restaurant opens to secure any available walk-in space. Come here when you’re in the mood for a calm weeknight dinner, need a dependable spot to take your first dates, or want to treat your bestie to a birthday dinner. The charming bubble sucks in every guest and only lets you go after your last bite of olive oil cake. Nobie’s serves the kind of meal worth telling your friends about, so keep close tabs on the menu updates, that way you’ll always know about the latest drop.
