They never disappoint. Expectations were not high as they have many locations, which often means restaurants are low on quality for the sake of scale, but we have nothing but good things to say about North Italia. So many of their dishes are great!

Pretty bad waitstaff. Couldn't answer basic questions about wine by the glass nor GF options. VERY slow and inattentive. The type who acts as though they're doing you a favor by just stopping by the table. One cold entree, one overcooked entree, one good entree.

The food was absolutely amazing as usual! The server really ruined the whole date as he was extremely rude since the minute he walked over to the table. We were in the middle of discussing which appetizer to get and he interrupted the conversation as if we weren’t talking. He spoke down to us which was a bit rude. I am huge fan of north Italia but after this not sure if I will dine in again.

This was a disappointing experience for us at North Italia. Our party of 2 couldn't get seated until 30mn after our reservation. One vegetable dish was undercooked. We asked to get our dessert to go, and it took forever to come. Can easily assume that the order wasn't put in the first time. We didn't check on them until later, but we didn't got what we ordered. Definitely not the best start for new year's eve, and I was used to much better service from that restaurant.

Enjoyed another great meal at this location. The food is much better than the one in The Domain. I had the Cacio e Pepe pizza which was pretty good and my wife had the gluten free bolognese, which she usually really likes but the pasta was not as good a texture as usual. Our daughter had the salmon and really enjoyed it. The carpaccio was a little different that usual also but still good. The pesto sauce on the meat seemed to have a mustard base which was not to everyone’s liking. We preferred it the old way. We were concerned that being bought by The Cheesecake Factory was going to have a negative effect on the quality of the food but so far this location and the one in Houston have held on. Hope it stays that way.

I always go there and it’s pretty good but yesterday, I made a reservation for an outside table (because I was going with my dogs), and when I got there they said they are not taking reservations for that day and they are not sitting the patio. I would have been nice for them to give me call and say that, instead, I just waste my time driving there and had to change my plans at the last minute.

North Italia is usually one of our favorites. Last night they missed a beat (actually too beats)...We were a little concerned because we were at the North Italia - 2nd Street Austin...we usually go to the one in The Domain. However, by the end of our meal, the staff had made up for the problems. Good recovery, thank you.

Fun lunch as always. Good service. The arrancini could have been warmer. It was a cold day, not many lunch diners. Food felt like it had been sitting under hot lamps for a while. The server brought warm sauce which made it better. My friend loved their soup of the day, hit the spot on a cold day she said. We come here often, good neighborhood spot

We originally ordered two pasta dishes. The dishes came out fast but when we tasted it the pasta was very dry and tough, as if it wasn’t cooked for long enough because they were trying to rush it out. We sent one of the dishes back and got a new pasta and had the same exact issue. Overall we were very disappointed with all of the pasta dishes since they were rushed out of the kitchen and weren’t cooked fully.

As USA TODAY's First Road Warrior of the Year, I travel a lot. Last weekend, we were celebrating our 13th Anniversary and found ourselves in downtown Austin. There, on OpenTable, we discovered a wonderful restaurant that delivered the light meal we were looking for. We both ordered the Butternut Squash Soup, which was delicious. We followed that with a shared Farmer's Market Board. It was perfect. But afterward came a very pleasant surprise: North Italia gifted us with an order of their Bombolinis, beignet donuts filled with lemon curd---a simply delicious end to a lovely meal. This will certainly not be our last visit to North Italia. Thank you, North Italia for your kind gift. It was much appreciated!

We went on a Sunday for lunch, and they had ran out of food in the kitchen. Only certain meals were available and our server had a list of how many ‘servings’ were left….! So we were eating re-heated pasta toppings…..! Then, they bought our entree out before the appetizers….we sent the food back. Then half way through our appetizers (with no room on the table) a different kitchen person tried to bring us back out the kept warm pastas…..! Our server was very embarrassed, yet nothing was taken off our bill!!!….. Won’t be going back.
