    The only downside was that we had a reservation and still had to wait 15 minutes to be seated - on a Tuesday night! Then we were seated in the middle of the dining room at a table, instead of a booth. The food and service were otherwise excellent.

    I've never had a bad meal here. Braised short ribs were amazing last night. Calamari and spicy broccolini were very good too. I've had pizza there before, great thin crust not greasy.

    We have been to North Italia numerous times, however, this most recent experience was subpar. We ordered the meatballs which tasted good but they were lukewarm. The pizza was so disappointing. We had ordered it on each previous visit and it was always super good but this time the crust tasted odd and just didn’t hit. The lasagne tasted pretty good but overall, the experience didn’t match the price. Our server was good but the rest of the service team was lackluster. Overall, we expected a higher level of service, taste and a better experience than was delivered. Disappointing.

    We were sat timely. Had the beef carpaccio, which was good, only had 2 pieces of bread for the entire plate though. we liked the spicy rigatoni vodka and chicken parmesan (thought there was supposed to be parmesan on the rigatoni?). our appetizer came out fast but we waited a very long time for our entrees. the hazelnut torta was delicious.

    While North Italia is one of our favorite restaurants, there were a couple of missteps on our recent visit. My pasta dish was piping hot while my wife's was simply lukewarm at best. Fortunately, our server checked back with us relatively quickly, so we were able to let her know about the dish. Sadly, it took about 15 minutes for the new dish to arrive - which was surprising considering it was one of their simplest pasta dishes (Tortelloni Al Pomodoro) and should have taken far less time to prepare and deliver. Of course, by the time it arrived at our table my dish was cold and they should have offered to keep mine warm while we were waiting. Secondly, I had included information on my wife's birthday in our reservation. While this was acknowledged when we arrived, no mention of it was ever made once we were seated nor at any time throughout our meal. No, I wasn't expecting a song or parade, but I had asked them to bring out their most traditional desert for her and apparently this information never left the host stand. All in all, this is still a quality establishment and we will definitely return.

    It took forever to get our food last night. Fortunately, we enjoyed our friends company which made the long wait a little better.
