    We loved everything we ordered. The drinks were amazing, the food was delicious and flavorful. Everything served was impeccable. The service was excellent and was made even more special by Edgar. We’re happy we chose to celebrate our 7th anniversary here. The establishment is truly deserving of its michelin star.

    Nice chill environment. The food is absolutely delicious and you really do get your moneys worth. If you go, you definitely have to try the taste of soul With the oxtails. The oxtails rice and gravy ,yams , greens and I added a side of spinach were so delicious. Also I had a strawberry orange juice to drink as well really really good. My overall experience was nice. I would give taste a 10 out of 10 and I would definitely be back. Highly recommended if you go here, you will not be disappointed.

    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!

    Our dinner at Drake’s was just what we needed for a date night and a special time together for my boyfriends birthday. I appreciate the grace as we were running late and the team was accommodating and kind, even though we were behind schedule and closing was at 10p. Thank you for the hospitality. A little bit of kindness goes very long way.
