Doing this the "Nova way", would be using the canSee()-method. You can read about it here.

public function tools()
{
    return [
        YourToolThatMightBeHidden::make()
            ->canSee(function ($request) {
                return $request->user()->can('access-this-tool');
            }),
    ];
}

I had the same issue and I resolved it like this.

  1. Go to NovaServiceProvider

  2. Add a gate/check in the tools() method

    public function tools()

{

    if (Auth::user()->hasAnyRole(['admin'])) {
        return [new Foo, new Bar];
    }

    return [];
}

This will solve the issue but I am not sure wether this is the Nova way of doing it or not.
