    Our hostess, sat me at a booth by a window (as I requested) Then a man (from staff) came up to her within earshot of me and scolded her that booth was strictly for 4 people. Completely unnecessary. He needs to learn discretion. I was the first (of party of 2) to arrive. When my date arrived, we were comfortable at this booth and Marcos, our server was the best! Besides the hostess getting reprimanded, it was a great experience. Food was outstanding as well!

    I tried the MJ Pizza and Nonna Pizza, and both were fantastic! The crust was perfectly crispy, the ingredients tasted fresh, and the flavors were well-balanced. A great spot!

    This was our first time at North Italia and it was a success! Van helped us with recommendations, telling us all about their fresh pasta and was so attentive to my son’s allergies. We ordered cocktails, the carpaccio, a couple of pasta plates and pork milanese! We were impressed with the flavors, serving, and beautifully plated dishes. We’ll be back to enjoy more of their menu.
