I’m not sure why this place is rated so low but I have to say that I stepped into this restaurant and loved everything about my night. First off the atmosphere is beautiful, with large windows (they open when weather permits) and no noise issues.

We sat at the bar when we arrived at 8:00 and found the restaurant to be busy enough to be busy but they still could accommodate us with a table.

We ordered the carpaccio which I thought was lovely, I personally thought the sauce may have been a bit too much as I loved the delicate flavor of the meat. We also order the focaccia bread…omg it was out of this world delicious, tender and the crust on the outside…yum.

We shared a kale salad that they split for us (so kind) and lasagne that was a personal size and the perfect combo for us. Honestly the wine, the staff, the food everything about this place was out of this world and I highly recommend visiting.

Reason for visiting:
Date/time of visit: Friday night, 8:30 PM
Parking: in the adjacent lot, free. Shared with the mall and other businesses
Party size: 12,, 3 teens
Environment/ambience: open air restaurant, pretty nice. Small bar area. Clean restroom. Right next to Cheesecake Factory. Pretty loud inside but still able to talk.
Service: great; came around often and friendly. We made reservations but seems like they take walk-ins
Food: we had a set menu; not sure if you can build your own or this is what they offer:
– 2 Caesar salad
– 1 arugula and avocado salad
– 2 margherita pizza, with bomba sauce
– 1 the pig pizza
– 2 vodka rigatoni pasta
– 2 bolognese pasta
– 2 chicken Parmesan
– 2 grilled branzino

We added 2 steaks too, only NY is offered. All the food was great. The bomba sauce is great with the pizza crust; must try. Didn’t try the salads but looked fresh.
Cost: ~$900, including tip
Would I go back (yes/no): 95/5

I had lunch at North Italia with my friend and it was a great experience. We came during Dine LA and ordered the $25 lunch special. I had the soup and chicken with pasta, and everything was very yummy and well prepared. The flavors were fresh and comforting, and the portions were perfect for lunch. The restaurant itself is very cute and nicely designed, with a warm and pleasant atmosphere. Overall, it was a lovely place to relax, enjoy good food, and catch up. Highly recommend.

We sat at the bar since there was a wait for a table. The bartender brought my husband a drink almost immediately and mentioned it was an extra..since we were celebrating his birthday, it turned into a birthday drink, which was such a nice touch. Our food was delicious, and she kept checking in on us while making great conversation. She even let him choose a dessert from the menu for his birthday , which was so sweet. He absolutely loved it..a flourless chocolate cake with caramel sea salt ice cream . It was so good he didn’t want to share… haha

Delicious find in the mall! There are a variety of delicious options and the scene is ripe for people watching. We usually sit at the bar top because service is quicker and you get the best drink recommendations.

We’ve been here 3 times and every time, Taylor (bartender) has been great – even when its busy! Between food recommendations, wine pairing (all have been spot on by the way) to whitty- not fake banter, Taylor, by far, makes the experience fun. (Jade also makes a killer decaf espresso martini).

My husband and I went to North Italia for a date night and absolutely loved it! The atmosphere was cozy and perfect for a night out. We started with the garlic bread, which was so delicious and packed with flavor. Definitely a must-try! Get a side of marinara sauce for dipping!

My husband ordered the Chicken Parmesan, and it was a solid 10/10 — perfectly crispy, flavorful, and one of the best we’ve had. I went with the House Special Bolognese, which I’d rate an 8/10. It was really good, lighter than expected, and felt like a healthier choice without sacrificing flavor.

For dessert, we shared the seasonal Pumpkin Butter Cake, and let me just say you HAVE to get this! It’s a 10/10 for sure, one of the best desserts we’ve ever had. My husband and I were literally fighting for the last bite!

For drinks, I had the Pinot Noir (just okay, probably wouldn’t order it again), and my husband got the Roman Holiday cocktail, which was very good. Almost forgot we had an expresso martini! omg get that too it was great!

Overall, North Italia made for an amazing date night! great food, warm atmosphere, and that butter cake alone is worth the trip! Highly recommend.

Let me be very clear — this is not a place you accidentally walk into. This is where you go when you already know you’re about to spend money, look good doing it, and enjoy every second without asking for permission.

North Italia, sitting right next door to Cheesecake Factory, is the quieter, sharper, more refined sibling. Less chaos, more control. Less noise, more confidence. This is where I go when I want real dinner, real conversation, real wine — not when I’m counting calories or checking prices. If you’re scared of dollar signs, turn around politely.

The food? Très sérieux. Handmade pasta that actually tastes handmade, sauces that don’t scream for attention but quietly dominate, ingredients that feel intentional, not rushed. Every plate comes out like it knows exactly why it exists. Elegant, balanced, indulgent without being sloppy. This is not “Instagram food” — this is grown-up pleasure.

Yes, it’s expensive. Yes, the bill will look at you funny. And yes — it’s absolutely worth it. Quality costs money, darling. If you want cheap thrills, there are plenty of places for that. North Italia is about taste, restraint, and confidence.

The atmosphere is where this place really wins me over. Calm, refined, polished. You can actually hear yourself think. Perfect lighting, beautiful interiors, the kind of place where you lean back in your chair, sip wine slowly, and let people notice you without trying. Fancy enough for my standards, relaxed enough that I don’t feel like I’m performing.

Service is sharp and professional — attentive, respectful, not clingy. They treat you like someone who belongs there, not like a customer they’re trying to impress. I appreciate that. I don’t need extra smiles — just competence.

This is where I imagine sitting across from my handsome, slightly dangerous businessman (you know who you are), sharing plates, exchanging looks, laughing quietly, and pretending the rest of the restaurant doesn’t exist. A little romance, a little arrogance, a lot of confidence.

Bottom line:
North Italia is refined, expensive, delicious, and unapologetic.
If Cheesecake Factory is the fun crowd-pleaser, this is the executive dinner.

Céline approves.
And when Céline approves… that’s final. ✨

The atmosphere is comfortable and stylish — a great choice when you want something a bit nicer than the typical mall food court but still relaxed enough for a casual outing. Even with being at a busy area ( mall ) service was great.

Very disappointing experience at North Italia. My food order was completely forgotten, and the coffee we ordered never arrived our server, Dylan, even brought the check before the coffee came out.

After a long wait, a manager came by once and said, “I’ll check on your food,” but there was no follow-up and no sense of urgency.

When the mistake was finally addressed, the compensation was $18 off a $180 bill, which felt dismissive given the time wasted and the service failure.

I understand mistakes happen in restaurants, but recovery and accountability matter. This location failed on both. I hope corporate leadership reviews this, as the service standards here do not match the brand’s reputation or price point.

We’ve owned restaurants and have been in the hospitality business for many years, so we truly pay attention to service and North Italia absolutely delivered!
The hospitality was amazing from start to finish. From the hosts to the servers and managers, everyone went above and beyond to accommodate us. Shayne was our waitress and she was amazing, attentive, kind, and truly made our experience even better. Evan, the manager, was also incredible and made sure everything was perfect.
The food was great overall. The kids especially enjoyed the donuts, though they had one small note: powdered sugar instead of cane sugar would’ve made them perfect.
Other than that, we enjoyed everything. Definitely a must-try!!!
