- EEmilyGreater Boston •2 reviews5.0Dined 7 days agoThis was our first time trying North Italia and we absolutely will be returning. The waiter did a great job with recommendations and was extremely kind. We had the calamari and shrimp scampi as appetizers and they were both amazing! Then of course we had to try the vodka pasta and squid ink SOOOO good! We will definitely be returned very soon!More infoNorth Italia – BLVDPrice: Moderate• Italian• Galleria / Uptown•4.7
- TTalivipHouston •89 reviews4.0Dined on Nov 15, 2024A nice hidden gem. Loved the decor, the kitchen open to the restaurant and bar. Very intimate, food was great overall. The cacio peppe was my least favorite as it had no flavor at all. We ordered pasta and asked the chef to make it spicy. The first time it was so delicious, we ordered another for our table, however it was less spicy and not as great as the first time. We had to ask for more water after our pitcher was sitting empty for a while, we also had to request that our table be cleaned off after we finished the starters. The restaurant was empty so it wasn’t busy and therefore they should have been a bit more attentive. Little details make or break a restaurant in our opinion. With that being said, we’ll definitely give it another try because the food was good.More infoDante Vini e Cucina ItalianaPrice: Moderate• Italian• River Oaks•4.7
