Kid waffle doesn’t come with eggs or bacon therefore you had to purchase everything individually. I got the chicken and waffles. The waffle was amazing but my chicken thighs taste weird as if they were old. Our server Jaidan was on point and did a wonderful job. I would visit again but I would try something new.

Excellent food and service! My husband and I shared two appetizers, the Italian meatballs and the truffle bread. The meatballs were fantastic! We shared a Caesar salad and our entree which was the chicken parm. Highly recommend! North Italia is my all time favorite Italian restaurant.
