    Food is good but service is not professional. Hosts are good but the waiter kept pushing on bugging with move the plates while we were eating kept bring the check even when we wanted to order more drinks. Not to mention we had to wait for her for 20 minutes after we got seated. Service is definitely not at the dinner restaurant level.

    We had a wonderful dinner at North Italia celebrating my daughter’s birthday, and the staff truly went above and beyond to make the evening special. They were incredibly accommodating, attentive to every detail, and made our family feel genuinely welcomed. The food, as always, was outstanding—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. From the service to the atmosphere, everything was perfect. We’re so grateful for the experience and would happily recommend North Italia for any family celebration or special occasion.

    If you want to talk, get a table outside. That's my advise.

    We had a great experience at North. Josh at the front was very welcoming and took the time to chat with us while we waited, even giving us some helpful recommendations on what to order. Our server, Haley, was friendly and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed. The food was delicious, and the service made for an enjoyable visit. We’ll definitely be back!

    Our dinner was top notch and our server Oleg was fantastic! We started with the butternut squash soup (our favorite!) and grilled bread and olive oil. The kale salad, chicken parm and chicken pesto entrees were all delicious. We tried the new lasagna verde pizza and it was a hit! Another great North Italia dining experience!
