    The Bolognese is the house specialty, so I ordered that since it was my first time eating at this restaurant. I was disappointed. There was very little watery meat sauce on wide noodle. Not a huge portion, which was fine, since I wasn't that hungry. I would not order that dish again. Very noisy, so hard to have conversation, but beautiful restaurant. Our server was terrific.

    Pizza was outstanding but the music playing loudly prevented having a normal conversation.

    The meatballs were delicious, but were just barely warm. They were out of 2 (beef, carpaccio and lasagna ) of the items we ordered. Our service was great otherwise.

    Nice place, good service. Food is good too. Shrimp Scampi appetizer excellent, pastas and pizzas are good too. Avoid Italian Meatballs, too dense and hard. They need to change that recipe, make them melt in your mouth meatballs.

    We enjoy North Italia. The location is great and the food is good, not exceptional, but the menu is broad and most entrees are tasty. The decor is modern and it’s always bustling. The bar is noisy and the TVs are broadcasting sports. Outdoor dining is on a busy thoroughfare so not romantic but fun for people watching. Service is just ok. On most occasions, our servers seemed too busy to give personal attention and have forgotten requests.

    The pizza was really good. We ordered meatballs and spaghetti for our son and only got one meatball, we asked for one more and they charged us 4usd for that. Otherwise good place.
