North is consistently good. On this last visit the staff was particularly accommodating and sat us even though we arrived 45 minutes early on a busy Saturday night!

Our server was very nice and did the best she could. We waited a long time for drinks and then when our wine came we had no wine glasses so we waited for glasses. One person at our table ordered an old fashioned which came much later than the wine and glasses. Like 20 minutes or more later. Food was good but we asked for an extra plate which never came. Had to ask a second time which delayed us all eating dinner waiting for the plate. Food is good but service was not. Our waitress was nice and trying but the drinks were very very slow to arrive and our food got cold waiting so long for an extra plate.

At our table of four, two of us ordered the Bolognese which was incredibly salty. The truffle bread was very good the eggplant parmigiana was good the salmon with pea risotto was good the dessert sundae was impressive. We would definitely go back but would not order the bolognese.

Love the location, ambience was fun, just a bit loud. Service was slow. The salad was good. The pizza was delicious. The braised short rib lasagna was soggy and meat didn't seem like anything special. It was a good night, just left a little disappointed.

It was very noisy for our party of six. Hard to hear. The 2 pizzas were tasty. The short rib and lasagna were yummy. Two of us split the branzino and it was barely warm, overcooked and a very small portion. It came w some veggies but again tiny portions. No side of lemon was served... it's fish! I've order branzino many, many times in my travels. This was a 2.5 on a 20 point scale. Service was so-so as well. Thank you
Mitch
Great menu and food. Friendly service. Outdoor dining relatively quiet. Very noisy inside.
Paula
This restaurant never disappoints! The menu has something for everyone and it's all excellent! Our server was delightful and allowed us to enjoy a leisurely girls' lunch! Thank you
Robin
Wonderful everything except NOISE level... really really loud... We were inside, so perhaps outside would've been different... Will give them another try outside simply because everything else was terrific.

We started off with the meatballs, which looked good but were actually pretty tasteless. My wife had the salmon which she thought was just ok at best. I ordered the Lumache Alla Norcina because it sounded so good in the description on the menu. It was one of the worst dishes I have ever had at North. The ingredients in the item description, sausage, truffles, asparagus were barely visible in the dish. The sauce is the worst part, runny, and thin, almost like a clear soup. Server was indifferent and aloof. We have been coming to this. Restaurant for years, and will not go back. Cannot recommend.

We were greeted and welcomed warmly, seated promptly. Zoe was very attentive and through throughout service. The meal was excellent. I had the Lumache alla Norcina as my main course. The pasta was done to perfection, the fennel sausage was delicious. The seasonal butter cake was divine. It was the right amount of pumpkin and spice. The topping was perfectly sweet and the cake delightfully light and airy. Great job, North!!
A great place for restaurant week. Brunch was breakfast pizza and poached eggs with polenta. Both very good excellent Bloody Marys too

Our server was wonderful! The portion sizes were fine, but the pasta could have used a bit more seasoning—it was a little plain.

We both had salads with your warm grilled chicken! I had the lemon dressing which is so light and perfect in summer! Aperol Spritz was yummy and so was the espresso martini!!

Lesson learned, call to reserve a table ahead of time for this place, because it was packed by 5:30pm on a Friday and I was shocked to hear that the wait was 2 hours! Thank goodness for barNorth next door that my friend and I could sit at the bar and have a quick bite. We weren’t rushed, but I definitely felt the need to be decisive and order as quickly as possible. Also, Jump Start has become my favorite non-alcoholic drink for the year! There was the right amount of bitterness and sweetness in it and I was not on caffeine high after. We were only there for some light bites, so we split between a salad and some meatballs. The meatballs were HUGE and so tender! I could eat them all on my own haha!! I’m already thinking about coming back to try the bottle & board next time!

Always consistent with food quality and service. It's our go to place for good Italian food and service. We usually sit at the bat and the bartenders are great with service and conversation.
