Best Authentic Restaurants in Canoga Park

Everything about this place is amazing from the food to the service. Everyone is so nice and friendly, even when they’re super busy.

Food and service were excellent. We had the steak frites and the mussels. The texture of the fries were the best I have ever had. Their bread and butter are amazing. We will definitely come back to try other items. It is rare to have a restaurant do everything so well. I hope they do not lower their standards.

North Italia remains one of my favorite best-kept-secret spots for friends and family. I've never had anything but a wonderful experience there. Everything including the service, food, atmosphere and overall vibe is nearly perfect. Definitely do the truffle bread, but don't miss out on other appetizers like the arancini and crispy eggplant. Best new restaurant find in years.

a nice relaxing early afternoon Christmas eve late lunch. Food was prepared impeccably. Well done by the chef.

Being in from Boston for a quick holiday trip, we were pleased this place was open on a Monday for lunch. Valet parking, quick & polite for under $10. Hostess quickly seated our party of 3 in a covered, sunken garden terrace type dining room . Comfy seating but the youngish crowd was pretty noisy. We are older but I didn’t feel over dressed in my black blazer. The room and the attractive crowd would have been a good setting for a Jeff Lewis or Housewives episode. I got an Amalfi Blue ($16) good, tasting, fizzy lunch cocktail that didn’t leave me pulverized. Casa Lena Burger($18) was delicious. My wife got the Ahi Tuna Sandwich ($24) Looked like big portions, and our guest had the Steak sandwich, also big & she brought half home in the restaurant’s distinctive take out bag. Panettone (it’s Christmas time) and Passion fruit sorbet. Perfectly prepared . The attentive service people were professional and striking looking.
