A word from NoRTH - Austin
North is offering a prix fixe menu and accepting reservations this Valentines Day! Please visit our website to view the menu and contact the restaurant directly to save your seat. We hope you will join us! Thanks,… North
We’ve turned a modern lens on traditional Italian cooking. North Italia is our love letter to Italy—a place that’ll make you feel like you’ve stepped off a charming side street to discover a culinary gem. After a decade in business, we’ve learned a thing or two and we’re approaching perfection in the art of handmade pasta and pizza. Every day, we start from scratch to create dishes like Strozzapreti with Bloomsdale spinach or supple ribbons of tagliatelle for our Bolognese. Our pizza is a revelation: an airy, barely chewy center embraced by a perfectly crisp crust. With the spirit of the Italian taverna, North is the place to talk shop over a cocktail or swap gossip sharing delectable chef creations. Every neighborhood would be lucky to have a place like North.Continued

  • "We were out on the patio that has clear tented sides. The table chairs are a bit uncomfortable if you are sitting for awhile and enjoying your company, but they have some tables out on the patio that have couches and these are what you want -- very comfortable for drinking a bottle of wine with friends. Also the patio has hanging heat lamps and you don't want to be under one. While its nice for the warmth after a while you been to feel like a pizza under a heat lamp. I like the heat lamps that are stands instead of these that hang over your table. Jason was our server and he was fabulous! Helped some of new to North people settle and in and explained how certain items were prepared as well as helping one of vegetarians choose a meal."

  • "What's not to like: Great food, great service, fun views of people walking around depending on where you sit. Great all around! Plus a special thanks to Carey our waitress for excellent service!"
    Dined on 3/2/2014
  • "We loved the small plates - zucca chips, meatballs, mussels and arancini. House-baked bread w/ sundried tomato butter was yummy and hard to resist. Margarita pizza very good, could have used more cheese. Caprese and Meatball sandwiches divine, as were the crispy "smashed new potatoes" that accompanied them. Our group loved the tomato "Soup of the Day". Caesar salad a disappointment - the dressing was tasty and balanced but the romaine was chopped into tiny pieces making it hard to eat, and the croutons were tasteless - also the portion was tiny. Waiter was great. Food was a bit slow coming out of the kitchen, but ambience was nice so we didn't mind."

  • "I've been at North more than 5Xs celebrating anniversaries, birthday, ect.. I would recommend that the Host ask if a special occasion and (even if you get billed ) but brings out a dessert noting your celebration. example: Anniversary wording on your dessert...? quick tip. maybe a dump one.. but.. that is something I like personally."

  • "We ordered four bologneses and all were absolutely amazing. This was my girlfriend and I's third time to NoRTH and we will definitely be back as regulars. The service has always been on point and it is a great location."
    Dined on 2/28/2014
  • "We took my mom here for her birthday dinner. We had reservations at 6pm and were seated early at 5:45. We ordered calamari and were not really impressed:(. We also ordered the bruschetta and it was delicious! We also have chicken pesto, spicy shrimp and tortollini. The spicy shrimp was good except the shrimp were obviously frozen and they were extremely Small but the sauce was good."
    Dined on 2/26/2014
  • "Although NoRTH is in with all the other mediocre restaurants in The Domain it stands out as a great place to eat. The food is carefully prepared and full of flavor. The salads are good, the pasta is great and the pizzas just like I like it. Desert was very distinctive and full of flavor. The service for our group of 5 was just right. Always making sure we had what we needed but not to pushy. The Al Fresco ambiance is comfortable and enjoyable. Best of all the prices were very reasonable for the quality of food served."
    Dined on 2/23/2014
  • "I've been to this restaurant many times -- Never been disappointed with the food quality. Dishes are better than average for Austin area. The salmon dish is my favorite."
    Dined on 2/17/2014
  • "Pasta was very fresh - wine selection was extensive and the service was great."
    Dined on 2/17/2014
  • "Fixed menu for Valentines Day was very good - nice change from their normal offerings - a bit high in the ticket price but I'd go again so not too bad. Would love to see them be more clear about gluten free options."
    Dined on 2/14/2014
  • "I have heard so many positive things. My Wife and I need to try the regular menu instead of the Valentine's Day Menu."
    Dined on 2/14/2014
  • "I can't stop ordering the scallops! so good everything on the menu is great and the service is always spot on."
    Dined on 2/8/2014
  • "My husband and I have been going to North since they opened several years ago. This time, we took some out-of-towners to dinner who had never been to North. We had the roasted chicken, branzino, calamari, artichoke, and salads. We all enjoyed our meals. The server we had was excellent - very knowledgeable, friendly, and prompt. The only negative was that the atmosphere was a bit loud for us to have a conversation without raising our voices, as the restaurant was very crowded on a Wednesday night."
    Dined on 2/5/2014
  • "Inside was noisy; we ate on the heated patio where it was quiet. The service was excellent, the salad was very interesting and tasty. The pasta and the fried zucchini chips were over-salted. Very attractive interior. The table we chose outside was against a window to the kitchen, so we watched a man just on the other side make spinach tortellini all through our meal!"
    Dined on 2/3/2014
  • "Everything about North is extraordinary. I've been a few times and each time the food and staff far exceed my expectations. There's not a better restaurant in Austin that consistently offers this kind of value in every aspect of the dining experience."
    Dined on 1/31/2014
  • "Great response from staff for a special occasion. Free dessert given. Zucc chips and Salmon were the best!"
    Dined on 1/30/2014
  • "Don't miss the appetizers, particularly the fried risotto mushroom one, chicken parmigiana was really good. Pizzas are excellent. Cocktails are great too."
    Dined on 1/27/2014
  • "Good pizza and salads. Fun place with a great outdoor patio."
    Dined on 1/26/2014
  • "We have been twice, once for lunch and once for dinner, both were very good. We live in Tulsa and we visit our son in Austin. What I did like was being able to make reservations on my computer several days before we were to be in Austin for his birthday."
    Dined on 1/25/2014
  • "The food was absolutely amazing!!! I ordered the calamari and scallops, both wonderful! However, our table was so close to the people next to us, we knew everything about them by the end of the evening. Big negative."
    Dined on 1/25/2014
  • "We had a reservation for 7pm but arrived 10 minutes early. There was no problem we were seated right away on the enclosed patio where the noise level was slightly lower. The service was prompt. The menu contained some inventive items. Everything was beautifully prepared and presented."
    Dined on 1/24/2014
  • "My wife got the scallops and it was truly fabulous. The appetizers were wonderful, and the wine was a great pairing. However my pasta was overdressed and not what I expected. The rest of the experience, including dessert and drinks afterward was noteworthy. So I'm chalking it up to a fluke, non-stellar dish."
    Dined on 1/23/2014
  • "Really enjoyed my experience. The first time I visited North was with a large group and recently just with two people--both times were great! Great wait experience and timely service."
    Dined on 1/20/2014
  • "Highlights were the zucca chips and the farm salad. Scallops and bolognese also excellent. We will be back."
    Dined on 1/18/2014
  • "Wonderful service, wonderful atmosphere, wonderful food"
    Dined on 1/17/2014
  • "If you want a completely bland Italian experience, that feels like you are in a night club, then by all means go here. Mediocre food, lousy ambiance, and fair service pervade. You would be far better served going to Magianos at the other end of the domain."
    Dined on 1/17/2014
  • "Not a bad spot. ended up with a table outside which was fortunate as it would have been pretty hard to hold a conversation over the noise level inside. Overall not a bad place grab a bite, average Italian cuisine."
    Dined on 1/14/2014
  • "This was visit 15 or there about if that tells you anything. North at the Domain is always a treat. The staff is friendly, but professional and always willing to help out with an honest recommendation. I had the spicy shrimp this time which was good, but I didn't really care for. My wife got the scallops and cleaned her plate - a rarity. North can get crowded so I recommend using Open Table to make a reservation."
    Dined on 1/11/2014
  • "I recently met a friend for dinner at North and service and food were great. The only downside is the noise level is a little high but had a good experience."
    Dined on 1/9/2014
  • "I liked everything about this restaurant except serving size vis a vis the price. I had a salad that was quite small and cost $11. It was so slight I had to have another lunch when I got home. Another of my party had the same salad with chicken and she had the same experience. I would save a return for a special occasion."
    Dined on 1/7/2014
  • "Brandon was awesome. Always smiling and knew his menu in and out. Great service all around. Well pleased!"
    Dined on 1/5/2014
  • "The food was good. Our waitress was not very attentive. She took a long time to get our drink order and didn't bring my drink out. When I mentioned it, she never apologized. She could have made a lot more money if she were to have asked us if we wanted more drinks, but we always had to ask. The heaters went out (around 10pm and they close at 11pm) and it was in the 30s outside. There were a few tables outside yet they didn't turn the heat back on. When we mentioned it, she just laughed and said they're on a timer."
    Dined on 1/3/2014
  • "Love North, but only complaint was the long bar table they sat our large party at was somehat uncomfortable, hard to visit- but larg parties are hard anywhere.. no matter we will just keep our group smaller"
    Dined on 6/7/2013
  • "I had such high hopes for North, as my beef short rib appetizer was very good...tender with creamy polenta. However, after tasting everyone's dishes...everything quickly went downhill. In summary: - Tuscan tomato soup - extremely salty and tasted / textured like Prego canned spaghetti sauce - Seared Scallops - garnished with some weird chile lime salt that overpowered an otherwise decent dish - New York Strip - overdone, with mashed potatoes tasting more like a stick of butter than potatoes - Budino dessert - salted caramel managed to be overly salted and sweet at the same time - Chocolate Truffle Tart - almond crunch was best part of this dish, the supposed "nutella cream" tasted like Duncan Hines frosting and the tart was like a brick."

  • "NoRTH has become my go-to spot in the Domain. Love the pizza and it's always a dynamic scene there."
    Dined on 12/29/2013
  • "I took a date to NoRTH on a Sunday night. Despite arriving before our reservation, they were able to seat us promptly. The ambience of the restaurant was enjoyable with low lighting and only moderate noise level. The waiter was quite prompt throughout the course of the meal. The food was top quality and delicious. (The kale salad and patata pizza are phenomenal.) I will definitely be returning in the future."
    Dined on 12/29/2013
  • "Food was delicious as usual. Server was nice but didn't clear our appetizer plates. Our entrees were served by another server or runner and our server didn't check back to until it was time to clear our entree plates and offer dessert."
    Dined on 12/29/2013
  • "The pasta is excellent here and so is the carmel dessert with sea salt!"
