    Food was very good! Waitress was friendly and staff was welcoming. Valet right in front was a plus.

    It was a zoo, from the parking, which is impossible, to the level of noise, to the food, which was ok except that they made mistakes; one dish had to go back, the other did not include items described. The fish itself, however, was very good. If you want hectic and crowded, this is the place.

    Non pretentious environment, flavorful food, stellar service. Calamari and truffle bread were delicious. Entrees of bolognese, salmon, chicken parmesan were a hit. Took visiting family to lunch.

    My husband and I have dined here before. North Italia did disappoint us. We both enjoyed our meals. Highly recommend the house specialty bolognese meat sauce with parpadelle pasta. S
