This was our first time trying North Italia and we absolutely will be returning. The waiter did a great job with recommendations and was extremely kind. We had the calamari and shrimp scampi as appetizers and they were both amazing! Then of course we had to try the vodka pasta and squid ink SOOOO good! We will definitely be returned very soon!
