North Italia never disappoints. The short rib is incredible—rich, tender, and full of flavor. The shrimp scampi and eggplant appetizers are both delicious and perfectly executed. They also offer an excellent selection of wines to complement the meal. The staff is always attentive and accommodating, especially with gluten-free and other special dietary needs, which is greatly appreciated. The atmosphere is decent, but it can get quite noisy when the place is full—even out on the patio. Despite that, it’s a fantastic dining experience overall. Highly recommend!

We used to go here with our daughter when she lived in town, but hadn't been there again until recently. The manager, server, and food were good with the exception of the change in the Gluten Free bun recently to Against the Grain, which has dairy and is like a brick. Please change back to something that isn't so hard and doesn't have dairy in it!!

Food 5; Service 3. Great food; not so great service. There was a large private party in for dinner last night, and they seemed to suck up all the help. Two of the three of us ordered a glass of wine when we ordered our appetizers; one glass arrived. We had to flag down a waiter to clear dirty appetizer plates, and to bring the other glass of wine. I order a second glass of wine to have with the remainder of my dinner (all 3 dinners took quite a while to reach the table) and dessert - had to ask twice for it. At the time we ordered appetizers and dinners, we asked for a dessert menu. We had to ask again after we finished our meal. The server who introduced himself to us when we sat down, but we rarely saw him, though he did make sure that slight changes to the food we ordered (gluten-free veal) were made. I understand that many places are having a hard time finding employees. I would rather have been turned away at the door, than be annoyed by lousy service, especially when we were treating a friend to dinner. Last time we were here - a few weeks ago - we sat at the bar. Maybe that is the best location.

The vegan Bolognese was one of the best pastas I've ever had. The server informed me that they have a few off-menu vegan selections that are more veggie-based, so be sure to ask about those if you aren't a pasta person. They also have a gluten-free pasta if you are gluten-sensitive. The portion sizes are very generous. Maybe consider sharing a dish if you want to save a room for dessert 😉
