Had lunch at North today with a business friend, and it was as good as I remembered, if not better. The service was outstanding -- prompt and helpful without being intrusive. The food was great and portions were generous. And although the restaurant was close to full, the noise level was quite reasonable and we were able to converse comfortably.

The decor is outstanding, as was the service. My friend and I shared two small plates … dumplings and Crispy shrimp and pork rolls. Wow! So so good. We are chatty and were catching up, but wait staff continued to reassure us that there was no rush. Nice. Also top of my list for restaurants… white tablecloth, which you’ll find at Le Colonial. I know it’s more expensive but too many restaurants have discontinued.
