North

A few weeks ago North opened, so I decided to eat there. This restaurant is owned by FOX Restaurant Concepts based out of Arizona. This group has eleven different concepts and each of them is unique. North is Modern Italian Cuisine and has exceptional tasting appetizers and entrĂ©es. My favorite dish was the Short Rib “Osso Buco” with roasted root vegetables and white polenta. The short ribs were so tender they melted in your mouth and the polenta was rich and creamy. The only disappointment was the desserts because everything had great taste but the desserts were kind of bland. I really enjoyed North and the flavors were intense.
