We love North Italia! The chef’s board is wonderful for the table as an appetizer. The salmon was perfectly cooked for the Caesar salad. I love the zero proof section of their drink menu as well. Cozy spot worth coming back to again and again

We had the best experience at El Five for our 1 year wedding anniversary. The El Five team gave us a complimentary glass of champagne and a card sign from all staff members! It really made our experience that much more special. Food, ambience, view, and staff were all amazing!

We went to Salt Water Social as a double date for happy hour! The drinks were amazing and so pretty too. All of the happy hour menu was DELICIOUS!! I loved the smaller portions and being able to try a large variety of food. The Lil Brg, Spicy Yellowtail Crispy Rice and Shrimp Tempura were my favorites! Our server Tim was kind and very attentive. The ambiance is perfect for a night out with friends as a chance to dress up and enjoy an evening together (my favorite thing to do!) They also have valet which is always a plus for me! I can't wait to come back!

Quality Italian is one of our very favorite restaurants. We’ve come here many times over the years, and every experience has been exceptional. They have an excellent menu full of handcrafted dishes that are hard, if not impossible, to find elsewhere. They have an exceptionally well run kitchen operation with a top notch chef, leading to delicious creations such as the lobster alla vodka and beef agnolotti Wine list is also excellent, with a wide variety of well-curated selections. Service, always attentive and thoughtful, brings it all together for a lovely evening. The manager tends to pop over to the table to make sure all flows smoothly, which is always appreciated. We’ll be back!

    Really strong meal from start to finish. Every dish had thoughtful, layered flavor profiles and was beautifully executed. My standouts were the short rib, pork belly, and tuna toro. I also had the chicken mole, probably the most classic dish of the evening, but still very well done and full of flavor. The cocktails were excellent—creative, balanced, and genuinely flavorful. Service was knowledgeable and attentive, and they did a great job walking me through the menu and helping me choose. I dined solo at the counter, which turned out to be a great experience. The other guests were friendly, and we ended up sharing what we were ordering and talking about our tastes and experiences with the different dishes. It created a warm, social atmosphere without feeling forced—an especially lovely place to dine alone. The kitchen and service were both really on point. There wasn’t a weak dish in the meal, and I’d absolutely return.
