    Our experience was amazing. The appetizers, salads, entrees, cocktails and wine were all superb. I only wish we would have had room to try dessert. The service was fantastic and the setting and ambiance made for a wonderful experience.

    The market pizza, one with pieces of eggplant parmesan was delicious! As is their grilled bread, which we always order. Attentive service by Gabriel. Busy lunch time service. The Roman Holiday cocktail was much enjoyed by my friend, twice! My espresso martini was also delicious! Not very sweet, very flavorful! A nice long lunch with a very good friend. We’ll be back :)

    Great food and service as always! The only suggestion for evening dining is the lights dim too low. It is hard to see your meal and you definitely can’t see the menu.

    This was a good Italian restaurant. Food was excellent. Service good. I suggest a reservation because they are busy. Noise level pretty high. My only complaint food wise was no bread brought to the table, like at most restaurants. I'm assuming you have to purchase it as an appetizer ?? Other than that, all was good. And yes I would return and would recommend this place.

    We were celebrating my father’s 70th birthday hoping for a good time. Our reservation was at 5pm intentionally early because we had our toddler with us. We start off on the wrong foot because our server misinterpreted my inquiries regarding an appetizer and thought I placed the order. He appeared annoyed when we told him we didn’t in fact order it. From that moment, his attention and care to us was gone. We waited for our food for over an hour without any acknowledgment of the situation from his part or any attempt from him to at least put us at ease by keeping us in the loop regarding the delay. We had to ask what the issue was and to at least bring us part of our order for our little one to eat. He did bring back a cold burnt cheese pizza. We finally received our food which was all cold. At the end we had to wait longer because he actually charged us an extra appetizer. Two hours later we left pretty deflated with a bad taste in our mouth and I’m not talking about the food which I’m sure had it been hot would’ve been delicious. Not the experience any of us were hoping for.

    As always, food and environment were outstanding. Dinner companions were new here, and they loved both. However, I was 100% ignored by hostess—standing within two feet of me—for 3-4 minutes upon arrival, and then our waitress was not only borderline incompetent, she clearly didn’t give two hoots about it either.

    We have been to north many times and it has always been good so maybe last night was just an off night. My caesar salad dressing was weird - maybe missing ingredients since it had no flavor and the consistency was different. The salmon was not of the usual quality either. Not sure if we will go back.

    I really enjoyed eating at this restaurant as a party of 1. My waiter was exceptional and as a team the wait staff never let my cup run empty, which I appreciate when I’m eating something a lil spicy. The food was delicious, very high quality, and the perfect portion to fill you up! Overall, I was highly impressed with the aesthetic of the restaurant, quality of food, and service.

    Resi was at 9:15 and we didn’t get our food until 10pm. We were late to our 10:30 resi at Goldie’s. All three pastas arrived cold after I asked our waitress where our food was. They weren’t very busy so I’m not sure what took so long. I think she just forgot about our food. The table next to us arrived after us and have appetizers and their entrees before we got ours. I think they quality of ingredients has diminished as well. North definitely is not as good as it used to be. Overall disappointed and won’t be back.
