The tortelloni was delicious! I went with a big group and I think everyone was happy.
Best pasta dishes in town? Possibly. Best service? Very high on the list I prefer the Del Mar location, but if you like malls, then this location is nice.
Really enjoyed coming to North Italia for their restaurant week menu. Service was attentive and even though there was a miscommunication about the mushroom side dish we ordered that got delayed, they did the right thing and comped the dish without being asked. The portion sizes were ample and almost everything was delicious. My favorite was the arancini. But also had a great salmon dish on top of a perfectly al-dente small pasta. We also tried a butternut squash on polenta side that was great! The desserts were good but not amazing. Also wasn't super impressed with the arugula avocado salad. It was fine but the flavor combination wasn't doing much for me or my wife. Overall, we really enjoyed North Italia and will go again.
Craving standard italian with quality and a nice ambiance? Try North Italia. Nice menu with a specialty cocktail offering as well as large wine list. Traditional Italian fare and excellent pizza. I've been to three locations and have enjoyed each one with consistent quality. Good for eating solo or with familia or large groups.
We had a family dinner with a party of 16, and they accommodated us very well. Our host—unfortunately, I didn’t get her name—was amazing, handling our orders smoothly and accommodating all of our requests. The food was great, flavorful, and clearly cooked with care and professionalism. The place is open and very comfortable, with good spacing between tables. Overall, it was a very satisfying experience from every side.
Definitely worth a visit for some delicious Italian food! The crudo was pretty good, but could've used a little more seasoning. My wife and I love the Bolognese and New York steak. The tiramusu was very good as well. The interior decor is nice and service was very good. Highly recommend if you're stopping by Fashion Valley!
We had an absolutely enchanting evening at North Italia in Fashion Valley, and I must say, it was truly a night to remember. As we stepped into the restaurant, we were immediately enveloped in a warm and inviting ambiance that set the tone for a fantastic date night. The décor was sleek and modern, with subtle nods to Italy's rich history and culture. Our server was incredibly attentive and knowledgeable, guiding us through the menu with ease and making expert recommendations along the way. We started with the burrata appetizer, and oh, it was love at first bite. The creamy mozzarella and fresh tomatoes were perfectly balanced, and the accompanying basil and balsamic glaze added a depth of flavor that was simply divine. For our main courses, we opted for the pappardelle Bolognese and the spaghetti carbonara, both of which were cooked to perfection. The pasta was al dente, the sauces were rich and velvety, and the portion sizes were generous, to say the least. But what truly elevated our dining experience was the exceptional wine pairings. Our server expertly selected a few glasses that complemented our meals beautifully, and we thoroughly enjoyed sipping on each one. The ambiance and environment of the restaurant were truly special. The lighting was dim and intimate, with soft music playing in the background to create a romantic atmosphere. The outdoor seating area was beautifully landscaped, and we loved watching the sunset while we dined. What impressed us most, however, was the exceptional service we received. Our server was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable, and the entire staff seemed to be working together seamlessly to ensure that our experience was nothing short of fantastic. All in all, our experience at North Italia in Fashion Valley was truly unforgettable. The food was exceptional, the wine pairings were superb, and the ambiance was romantic and intimate. If you're looking for a great place to take your significant other on a date, look no further than North Italia. We'll definitely be back.
We went here last night and are still taking about it! We had the kindest server and the food was amazing. Highly recommend starting with the olive oil balsalmic bread. The squid ink pasta with calamari and tiger shrimp was pretty spicy (in a good way) and easily the best dish I’ve had on my trip to San Diego. We also got the hot honey prosciutto pizza which was amazing with the ricotta dip. Overall would ABSOLUTELY return any day.

The food at North never fails. The menu offerings are unique and always tasty. The quality never falters. Staff are always friendly, knowledgeable about offerings, and willing to make modifications. I only took off one star because of the aggravating lack of communication and consistency among management regarding POS entries for item modifications. Over multiple visits, I've had staff and managers happily ring up the Spicy Rigatoni Vodka "no meat, extra pasta". On a good visit, the "no meat" option is priced lower than the regular entree, and the "extra pasta" is an add-on that brings the entree back to the normal price. However, multiple times now, managers have refused to allow such price modifications. Look, I understand it's asking for a lot and may be considered "over the top". But when a POS option is available on their end, and past receipts show the modification, my results should be consistent.
This is one of our favorite go to restaurants for many years. Never disappointed but tonight something was off. The Farm salad we always get did not have the amount of ingredients that it normally has. The calamari did not have the same amount as usual, and did not have any whole calamari we have always had. The pizza also just did not taste the same…crust was different. I am not one who leaves reviews very often if at all, but tonight was not the same experience we have always enjoyed. We felt as if they were cutting back. I do have to our bartender and drinks were awesome! We will definitely be back and hope we just had a one off experience.
The food was delicious and they have gluten free options. I had the spicy sausage vodka with gluten free pasta. It was delicious! My daughter had the crushed meatball ragu, which she also loved. For dessert my daughter tried the seasonal butter cake which was very good. Check your state for a location. I will definitely go again!
I like the place - good food, lovely vibes. My top 2 dishes were actually the appetizers. The absolute best being white truffle garlic bread - melted in my mouth OMG! And then shrimp scampi was delicious. I would go there with a big appetite. However, there weren’t many main course (pasta) options for vegetarians. Apart from that, a nice place for lunch or dinner!

Good food, not outstanding, but not bad either. The pizzas are better than other entrees. The reason for my less than great review is the poor service. Twice. I was so hopeful that if we tried i…
Took a small group tonight. We ordered appetizers (pizza, carpaccio and salad). Pizza never came, despite the fact that we reminded our server twice. Our main entrees came in 3 different batches and one of the dishes just didn't come. When we were all close to done, and my sister still didn't have her food, we asked about it and the pizza which was supposed to be an appetizer. We ended up canceling the pizza and they rushed my sister's order. It was so bad she ended up returning it. Supposedly an Arugula and Avocado salad with salmon. There were three thin slices of avocado at most; greens were super dry, like they forgot the dressing. Salmon was over salted and overcooked. She ended up returning it. The most surprising part was that the staff was very nonchalant how about all these errors: Missing items and food served all over the place. The food what's okay, the service was absolutely terrible. Not sure I'd go back since San Diego has hundreds of good places to dine. Disappointed. There was no manager on site to talk to or notice these things. North Italia....get your stuff together!
I have been to other locations and most of the time have been satisfied with the food and service. However tonight we tried this location for the first time, the server was a very sweet lady but unfortunately, she was in such a hurry to get us out of the restaurant that it made us very uncomfortable. The food was delicious as I expected and arrived at the perfect timing but as soon as I put the fork down she grabbed the plates and without asking if we wanted the check or not she brought the check immediately. The whole time we were there was less than 45 minutes and it felt like someone was chasing us. I don't think I would return to this location since I would like to enjoy my meal promptly, particularly when it is not the weekend and there are plenty of available tables for other guests.
Nice large open venue. Usually hit happy hour time and sit at the bar. Food is tasty but not much price difference on HH menu. Might as well get what you want. Bartenders are great and personable. Service staff lacks in common sense sometimes. Only one napkin with 2 serving sets. Pizza tray set down halfway off the counter and have had to ask for plates and stuff. Hence the 3 star. Meatballs and polenta are good and the fig pizza is a favorite. Still $50 a person with only 1 glass of wine and a beer.
The food’s a coin toss—some days you score, other days you’re wishing you’d risked the food court orange chicken. The hot honey pizza, though, is fire—one of the better ones in San Diego. Bar service is always on point, making it the perfect place to hide from mall chaos with a glass of wine and something that doesn’t come on a plastic tray.
The food is very tasty. The staff seem very nice. But You make a reservation and they never stick to it. You are always waiting 10-20 minutes after your reservation. It's a 2 hour ordeal. Love the …

Spent $80 on two dishes that are very disappointing especially for the price. Baramundi was overcooked, dry and had alot of char. The romesco sauce and squid ink pasta was sub par
North Italia: thanks for your response, but I don't need a discounted menu. I need your entree's to be priced accordingly. I have no problem paying $37 for an entree if the quality and portion size…
Extremely disappointing experience. We ordered multiple pasta dishes, and all of them were very bland. The wait time was also unreasonably slow and there were barely any customers. I understand being busy, but this felt excessive for how empty the restaurant was. The worst part, however, completely ruined our meal. While eating pizza, I noticed a thick short strand of hair (looked like a pubic hair) embedded in the crust (the outer edge where you hold the slice). When my mom politely brought it up to a waiter, he looked at it for a moment and then swept it off the table without any real explanation or apology. He then asked rudely if we wanted a free pizza. The way this was handled was incredibly uncomfortable and dismissive. It genuinely upset my mom and ruined what was supposed to be a special mother-daughter outing. We completely lost our appetite and could not continue eating. The only positive was the tiramisu, which was genuinely delicious. Unfortunately, one good dessert does not make up for poor food quality, slow service, and such an unprofessional response to a serious hygiene issue.
