    Food was great. However we were let down by the entrees being delayed unusually long time. We ordered bread & oil as a starter then waited almost 45/60mins for the mains to be delivered. Even though the offer of dessert was kind, it didn’t make up for the delayed meal.

    From the moment we walked into the beautiful restaurant, to our gracious host Briana who seated us, to our friendly, kind and attentive server Jessie who took great care of us - we had the best time! Our food, drinks and dessert were absolutely delicious! This was for my brother's birthday, and everyone at the table agreed that our meal was fabulous! We will definitely be back. Highly recommend!

    We’ve been to North Italia Fashion Valley at least four times and each experience was above satisfactory. Unfortunately, this time it took well over thirty minutes for our food to be served to us. Granted our server and who I believe was one of the managers, came to our table to apologize for the delay. Although we appreciated the gesture, it still took another 10+ minutes before we were served our meals. I’ll chalk this up to a “one off”, and will more than likely go back, as the food and service are great!

    We had the shrimp scampi, gluten free, and the chicken Caesar salad. Both were superb. The waiter was attentive and friendly. The one fault: it was very cold inside. Doors were left wide open on a cold day, making dining less enjoyable.

The chefs got it out very fast considering the night. My favorite restaurant experience in a long time. Keep up the great work !

    Waiter gave us mini bread plates to eat our pizza. We gave it a try, but one pizza slice hunger over the mini plate, so we had to ask for a dinner plate the next time the waiter came around. Also had to ask for more iced tea cuz waiter mostly stayed at cash register visiting with other wait staff.

    Server was attentive but his assignment to our table and initial interaction took 10 minutes from being seated … far too long. Three people eating for this lunch and all 3 meals came at different times. French fries were basically cold. Not the normal North experience at other locations.

    I had requested an outdoor table and this was completely either ignored or missed, also the reservation asks if it’s a special occasion I marked it was our anniversary which seem to not really matter. We have gone to this restaurant for the last three years for our anniversary and it’s the same issue every year. If you don’t plan on doing anything special for the party then why even ask.

    My wife and I, had a wonderful Day-Date. We shared a perfectly cooked ‘Pig’ pizza 🍕, the spiciness balanced perfectly with the cheese and dough. We topped it with perfect Affogato. We were served with excellent service by David, with continued check-ups by Drew and Kelley. All the way around, from the wonderful hostess, delicious food by the kitchen, to the great service by David and the staff … we had a beautiful Day-Date experience. Looking fwd to our next visit, soon. Thank you

    Our order included several dishes and cocktails. All of them were delicious, but the gluten free pasta was slightly under cooked, having a sensation of being a little chewy. Otherwise, our experience was good and we would still return for the delicious Italian fare.

    Food and service were excellent as always. However, when I made my reservation on OpenTable I selected "Standard" seating out of the two options of "Standard" and "Outdoor." When I arrived I was told my reservation was marked for the Patio. I looked at my reservation again and it said "Standard." I showed this to the hostess and she told me that I selected "Standard Outdoor" instead of "Standard Indoor." Those options don't exist when making the reservation - just Standard & Outdoor. I was very disappointed because I prefer the inside atmosphere. If you want to make sure you're table is inside after selecting "Standard" then I would call to confirm.

    Love this location because it's so central. The drinks and food are always amazing. Everything I've ever had is good - though my fav is the Chicken Parm. Outside has a strong breeze which is great, but can get chilly for those that run cold. Service is always top notch. Love this place!
