I took my wife and daughter to this restaurant two years ago. The food was bland, and the décor passé. I am resubmitting this review, however, because it was seemingly deleted from some other web sites. The upshot: my wife and daughter got food poisoning from the salad--which I did not have. North 44 promised to send us a gift card for $150 to come back--but the card never arrived. My wife and daughter barely made it home before throwing up. For the prices you pay at North 44, the kitchen should have been surgically clean. There should have been no cross-contamination of food items. North 44 blew it in the case of the food poisoning and in their failure to follow up with the gift card for another try. I would never, ever go back to this restaurant. You can go to the Keg and get much better food, better service, and nicer ambience than at this overpriced, overhyped restaurant. What a shame that Bistro 990 closed down, but this place survived!
