| - Meh... I was dying to try this place after discovering it on yelp. The pictures were so captivating, I just had to try it. Sadly 3 Stars is a bit of a stretch for our experience at North. The food was lacking and the service was just awful. The waitress disappeared for long periods of time which led to our food being cold and us ultimately passing on desert strictly because of her poor service skills.
Back to the food. After weeks of salivating over those fantastic images I still couldn't decide what I wanted, so needless to say, we over-ordered. See the results below.
Started with the calamari, white truffle garlic bread and the specialty pizza of the day.
Fried calamari arrived on a bed of greens. The taste was very good, however it was cold. I think had the calamari been hot and greens cold this dish could have been elevated to the next level.
Meatball pizza was just "eh". We really only got it for research purposes, and I can honestly say, while it's not bad, it's not the reason to go here.
Garlic bread was prepared very well. Soft inside and crispy outside.
The Bolognese (house specialty) as well came out cold which was disappointing on a brisk winter day. A steaming hot bowl of pasta was just what was in order, I unfortunately had to settle for a lukewarm one. The pasta was good, the sauce was good...
Chicken Parm was moist and not too fried or anything. Not great, not bad.
Overall, this was a disappointingly adequate meal. I am willing to give it another shot and hope for a hot meal and good service. Just not sure I'm in any rush to return.
