I went there on the recommendation of a local friend. The first start was rose sparkling wine. The server in charge was kind, took pictures, and set the table beautifully. However, it was difficult to choose a dessert menu because the ice cream melted.

Food is really great at this place with great atmosphere. Suggest to book tables, in peak lunch time; Delicious food place normally gets busy in the afternoon. Service from staff was also great. We tries pasta, lasagna bianca, salads, white truffle garlic bread and other items. You can ask for a box to carry your leftovers back to your home.

My husband and I decided to have a spontaneous date night in the middle of the week, and this restaurant was the perfect choice. We didn’t have a reservation, but we were seated immediately, Yay! We kicked things off with drinks and an appetizer, and the meatball appetizer was absolutely delicious! It arrived at the perfect temperature, and the flavors were simply delightful. For our main course, we both went with pasta. I chose the braised short rib lumache, which was incredibly tasty. My only minor gripe was that the portion size seemed a bit small, but I might just be a bit greedy! Nevertheless, I thoroughly enjoyed the pasta. The service was excellent! We were greeted promptly, and our waiter was attentive throughout the meal. The ambiance was relaxing and had a touch of romance to it, making our evening even more enjoyable.

I love the vibe of this place and the food was AMAZING! When I got the chef's charcuterie board I wondered why it didn't have the fig jam it had last time. The waiter explained that it was a different season so a different sauce. I totally understood and was fine with it and they still tried to make my experience better. They got me the closest thing they had to fig jam, (they brought the fig spread that they put on their pizzas) and it was delicious! By the way I'm a child posting on my mom's account.

The food is always good here and it’s a nice atmosphere. Not too noisy despite the large dining room. Great service. If you have not tried their squid ink pasta with calamari and shrimp, I highly recommend. Perfectly al dente with just the right amount of spice. don’t be turned off by the color!

Great service and great food. Had the pizza and it's delicious. Tried the pasta squid ink and Bolognese. The only disappointment was that they didn't have lasagna. I guess I have to just go back!

North Italia Del Amo is incredible! There are no other ways to describe the restaurant. It's a unique "scratch" restaurant. This means that everything is made from scratch daily, including the pizza dough. Everything was so fresh and good. I waved lasagna, but I saw the pizza on other tables, and I couldn't resist the urge to have one for myself. It was so worth it. This pizza is exceptional, and I visit Italy annually . Everything was delicious, down to the locally brewed beers. It's also very reasonably priced. We paid an average of 48 per person with alcohol and appetizers. I very much recommend this restaurant.

I frequently visit this restaurant for lunch meetings with friends, and if you arrive before noon, you’ll likely get your preferred seating. The food is consistently delicious, no matter what you order. The staff is friendly and always serves with a smile, creating a great atmosphere.
