I've been to North on several different occasions, both lunch and dinner, and each time have not only enjoyed myself, but also looked forward to going back. While the first time I ate at North it seemed like I went in the midst of a very busy lunch hour, our server was smiling and knowledgeable (able to answer our questions) despite the hustle in her step and noticeable hurrying around. Our food was delivered surprisingly promptly, though the dining room seemed nearly full. We were not rushed, and were able to enjoy our delicious bruschetta (a different twist from the traditional tomato-topped version - ours had prociutto and creamy cheese) before our main meals arrived. The fish of the day was fresh and vibrant and delicious, and the sandwich my friend ordered savory and looked great on the plate. The dinners I've spent at this restaurant are no different - the scene is trendy, but seemed also family friendly as there were a handful of children around us. Our server talked us through ordering our wine, and the manager even came over to check in with us to see how we were enjoying our choice. The rissotto was cooked to perfection, and my sides of vegetables were just the right portion and flavors. The few bites of my husband's meal I tried (he had the ahi tuna with fresh organic vegetables), I loved.
Pros: upbeat service, delicious food, great energy, fresh interior
Cons: noisier than some restaurants
