    What a great place for an sophisticated, energetic date night!! Service is outstanding as timing/pacing was relaxing but not slow allowing time to enjoy my cocktails and my conversation with my date while enjoying each course. Appetizer was lightly golden fried calamari... crispy but also tender with a delicious homemade gardinieri accompaniment. 5 stars! We shared an arugula salad with fresh parmesan and vinaigrette. My preference would have been an offer of course ground sea salt but it was acceptable as served. 4 stars! My entree was the Pork Milanese and my date enjoyed the pan roasted salmon with smashed peas and broccolini. Both were cooked to perfection. The pork portion was more than generous and I will be enjoying a pork cutlet sandwich for lunch tomorrow. 5 stars! For dessert we shared a citrus butter with a vanilla cream. It was the perfect size to share to finish off a great meal as we finished our glasses of wine. Light, refreshing and not over-sweet. 5 stars again,

    It was a very busy Saturday night so slower service was expected but we had to wait 20 minutes after our reservation time before receiving a table. It also took a long time after we were seated at the table before the server came by to take our drink order. We ordered mussels as an appetizer and they came out raw and so we had to send them back. It seems like our waiter assumed we wanted to space out our meal so each small plate we ordered came out separately. After we finished one, another one came out. Not sure if this was intentional or because it was a busy night. Because we had to wait so long for our table and to receive service, we were absolutely starving when the mains finally arrived. The food was very good (except for the raw mussels). Recommend if you want everything to come at once to tell the server when ordering and expect it to be slow if you are there during a peak night like Saturday.

    We go to North every few weeks and have an enjoyable time. We typically go mid-week and this time was a Saturday. They seemed ill-prepared for a full restaurant, although they are always full most nights and particularly on Saturdays. We waited 20 minutes before being seated (had reservation), waited 20 minutes for wine after ordering it, the 8 oz pour came in a full glass (vs a mini carafe). When the wine glasses were placed, the empty wine glasses brought earlier were left on the table. We each order a salad with piece of salmon. Seems odd that a $30 salad doesn't come with a piece of bread, but I'm used to that at North. But we did a lot of waiting with nothing but water, and ended up with a simple dinner that tallied to over $115 for two people. Just makes one question why they're going here so often...
