    We were seated within 10 minutes of our reservation time. Our server was attentive and prompt. Our entrees were flavorful, but the price was higher and the portions smaller than other Italian restaurants we frequent. Having said that, the atmosphere is very appealing.

    Very impressed with the personal service and welcoming of the staff. They asked if it was a special occasion and made sure I got a dessert ( no singing but a nice candle). The squash cake and ice cream was to die for The waiter was attentive but we didn’t feel rushed or bothered … very well done The best part was after realizing my gift cards were expired the manager gave us a nice discount. Such a rare experience to receive such a gesture . I really am grateful for their kindness , great food and a memorable birthday dinner.

    We hadn’t been in some time and we returned to try it again. The food was excellent, better than I remembered although always good. The pace of our meal was slow, and possibly too slow with our waiter disappearing for some time after appetizers were ordered and while we were hoping to order cocktails. When he did return, things moved along much better. The two complaints, and not huge ones, are that we requested standard vs. outside seating and yet we were seated outside. Then, about 15 minutes into our visit, they moved one of the outdoor heaters away from us completely to satisfy another table, which left us chilly. All in all a good experience.

    Overall the experience was welcoming but the restaurant needs to communicate to the diners request. We wanted Jacob to wait on us this past Saturday afternoon and he wasn’t there at the very least let us know he is not in this afternoon. The final concern was the way our waiter poured a full bottle of wine. It should be measured equally among all the diners. Some of us got a huge pour. I blame management lack of training the staff.

    So disappointed as we have eaten at North restaurants in other cities. It took the kitchen forever to get our food out and then parts of the order was wrong. Two hours for dinner at non-fine dining restaurant is too long. The management at this location is lacking.

    Wait for ordering and food was inordinately long(much longer than what I'm used to for Italia North). The gas fireplace behind us malfunctioned and started putting out natural gas giving both of us a headache and requiring us to move. Food was good

    Service was very very slow. Seemed to be a problem with management staffing a shift change late day. Food prices were high and quality was not what it has been in the past. Management acknowledged their delay but made no offer of price adjustment which is also not what you normally see at this location.

    I dine at north weekly. Yesterdays trip was less than good. We waited 1 1/2 to get our entrees. It wasn’t particularly busy and I was shocked by the time it took to get food. We had 1 app and 2 bowls of soup. Took 30-45 minutes to get that. Then waited another 30-45 minutes to get 1 large salad, bowl of past and a pizza. Wait person blamed the kitchen for the delays. Had to have the simple pasta with marinara sent back as it very spicy. It was another 15 minutes to get the reorder and then just had it boxed to go. I love North and will keep coming. Bad day yesterday

    Salads we ordered we good though it seems like they decreased in size since our last visit. The over-riding issue was the server was constantly rushing us. He was literally running up to + away from our table. Made the experience feel a little stressful.

    I want to love this place more, but unfortunately it takes a while to get service when you sit down and the food just isn’t up to my expectations. It isn’t hot and feels like it has been sitting a while. I had 3 small plates and only enjoyed one. (The shrimp) the arancini and eggplant parm were not hot. I’ve tried this restaurant 5 plus times and even had to send calamari back. Cold, fried seafood didn’t taste good. The ambiance is great, especially outside. It’s always busy and a great stop after shopping.

    1 hour after we arrived our meal had not yet arrived. The Seasonal Salad was primarily kale, with very few vegetables, The Manager, Zoe, was wonderful and comped us our meal. And, the wait staff was very gracious. Even so, we will not be going back to North for a very long time or ever.

    We were dining first time and liked the restaurant. It’s a busy place, popular with all ages. Great atmosphere, delicious fresh made food, nice selection of wines and drinks. We had pasta bolognese and grilled branzino- both are excellent. Kyle, our server, was quick and attentive. Would come again 👌🏻

    This restaurant has been one of my favorite restaurants to dine at. Usually I have a pretty good experience. Unfortunately last night my friend and I dined here and the service was absolutely TERRIBLE. Our waitress was extremely rude. She spoke to us with an attitude every time she came to the table from the moment we sat down. Just taking our drink order seemed like a hassle to her. I was in shock.

    Greeters need to be able to speak a little louder. Whispering in a loud environment while appearing cool and hip is not appreciated. The quality and amount of food were equal to any kids menu.
