Best Casual Restaurants in North Panhandle / USF

Nopa was a fantastic experience - haven’t been back for a decade and the food and service are as I remembered. Accommodated a seating request and a late guest arrival ; service was friendly and helpful. Food was exceptional. Best porchetta ever tasted; agnolotti was juicy; fried chicken was addicting. Great desserts; good bar experience. Won’t wait so long to return again. Parking is a challenge; take ride share and avoid the stress.

The service is the prize here at State Bird. My friend has true celiac disease and the care that the servers took to make sure we knew exactly what he could order was wonderful. There were plenty of options and the food was delicious.

Consistently good food with an ever changing menu but a very small overcouded restaurant with inconsistent service. and very high out the door price. An interesting alternative to Nopa but not as comfortable or reliable.

Wonderful lunch, service and lovely space. My new favorite go to restaurant for business or romantic lunch.

I live in the area and have passed this restaurant several times. I have been dying to go and last night was the night. Let me tell you they did not disappoint. I had the Cacio e pepe it was so good. My friend had the linguine frutti di mare. She cleaned her bowl, lol. Definitely will be back. Great service too. Wonderful gem!
