Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We used to love this place, not anymore! Husband and I were seated quickly but no one waited on us and no one made eye contact either...huh? We decided what to have, and no one would wait on us...so we waited and waited and no...eye contact...many staff people walked by us (many!) but refused to make eye contact and so we ultimately left and went over to Zinc Bistro down the street...we felt humiliated as we always went there for lunch even drove down from Sedona many, many times...really disappointed in the staff, including bartender, refusing to make eye contact...won't be going back there in the future, not sure what was wrong but it wasn't us...that I know.More

One of our favorite hangouts in Kierland Commons. Must try their Sicilian Margarita or the Veni Vidi Vice.

Not sure what the hype and the busy restaurant is all about. Their website and when you call say they have a happy hour, but they do not mention anywhere that it's in the bar only at very few high top tables. Even the tables...that sat after us were asking their servers for the happy hour menu, which they were told was not available in the restaurant. Our server accommodated our child and made a cheese pizza, which was probably the best thing that was ordered. I had the short rib pasta, which consisted of bland pasta, with little sauce and stringy, dry meat. It was tasteless. My husband ordered the chicken parmesan, which consisted of the chicken on one side and then a mac and cheese on the other. He said it tasted as plain as the plate looked. A school cafeteria might have a better presentation. We had high expectations for this restaurant. The meal was definitely not worth the over $100 or two adults and a child... With only one alcoholic beverage purchased. There are numerous restaurants in the area that I would return to before giving Bar north a second chance.More

Great setting for restaurants and bars, but seems like they may take it for granted.. late for lunch, so the place was not busy, service much to be desired. We were with family that have been before and felt dissapointed. Shoud do better in the...peak of the season.More

We dined here twice during out five-night stay in Scottsdale--that's how much we enjoyed it! The Bolognese was, according to the two who ordered it, the "best ever." Also getting rave reviews were the following entrees: Short Rib Radiatori, Roasted Mushroom Tortelloni, and the Roasted...Salmon. Everyone at our table was very satisfied both times we visited. The restaurant itself (North Italia) is lively and a bit noisy, but we found Bar NoRTH to be lively but a little bit cozier and less noisy.More

We were shopping and stopped here for a bite to eat. The outdoor patio was a bit chilly and there were issues with the heaters. Food was very good.

Food was good. Calamari and Pizza were good, but not large portions. Enjoyed the drinks. Server was friendly and prompt. Enjoyed eating and hanging out on the patio. Can’t imagine eating inside unless the weather demanded it.

Got a reservation for 5 o'clock midweek and it was much needed. The restaurant was packed by 5:30. We ordered wine from the happy hour offering and at 16 dollars a bottle this was a great deal. Our food was tasty and service was great....Dinner for four with a few bottles of wine and appetizers came to about $35 a person. Great deal.More
