    Went here for my wife’s birthday, we had a reservation at 6:30pm and we arrived 30 minutes early and they still sat us instantly. The noise level was great only reason it was “moderate” was because of a large party of people came in and made a bit of noise so nothing crazy. The servers were great and very knowledgeable about the menu. The price vs quality and portions were perfect and well justified, and the server even brought some chocolate covered strawberries over for my wife. Great experience.

    Our server Brandon was amazing. Even our 14-year old son commented how great a server he was. The food and homemade pasta were excellent. You must get the focaccia appetizer. It was the favorite of the night. The music from the bar was fun and added to the ambiance.

    We had an exceptional dining experience at North Italia! Our group of seven came here to celebrate my grandmother’s 85th birthday while family was visiting from out of town, and it could not have been more perfect. The service from Austin was absolutely wonderful—attentive, friendly, and made us feel so welcomed on such a special occasion. The food was beyond amazing. The white truffle garlic bread and meatballs are a must-have for appetizers—absolutely delicious! For the main course, I had the chicken parmesan, which was cooked to perfection, and we finished the night with the tiramisu, a light and tasty dessert that everyone enjoyed. The ambiance was warm and inviting, making it the perfect place to celebrate. My grandmother had a fantastic time and couldn’t stop raving about the experience. We will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend North Italia for both the food and the outstanding service!
