    This is my go to restaurant for family dining. The food is fresh and delicious. The service is very good. The pizzas are top-notch. Definitely try out the prosciutto. My favorite go to is the meatballs and the calamari. The wine list is not extensive but offers a good variety of reasonably priced very good wines one of my favorite places to dine

    North Italia remains one of my favorite best-kept-secret spots for friends and family. I've never had anything but a wonderful experience there. Everything including the service, food, atmosphere and overall vibe is nearly perfect. Definitely do the truffle bread, but don't miss out on other appetizers like the arancini and crispy eggplant. Best new restaurant find in years.

    quickly became one of my favorite restaurants in LA. It’s expensive but worth every penny, especially as the restaurant is pretty generous with the portions. The Pane with pistachios and ricotta is amazing along with the the broccolini caesar salad. The uni pasta is simple and elegant, and one of the best i’ve had, especially topped with grade A uni. Don’t skip dessert and take any digestifif offered. $350 for 2 people. Not cheap, but well worth it and unique amongst the many high end choices in Los Angeles

    Amazing tasting menu at a $49 value- Salas, flatbeead, two pastas and two desserts. The food was amazing. Service was great. It is set in what you might call a high end food court but you are in a high end mall so it would be expected.
