I’d like to see a review where she isn’t aware of his reviews of the food first. It’s so obvious her opinion is very tainted by his.
I used to live next to the original North in Tucson. They must have sold out. Always nice spaces in Sam Fox restaurants but the food was very Americanized
Cervo ❤
when you come to italy you should go to one of the American chains like 'old wild west' (its in verona at least) and see what jessi thinks of the food! that would be too funny!
the lighting is really bad in that restaurant
Pizza places here in Italy do not pre-cut the pizza also because it gets colder quicker.
"Okay che il prezzemolo va dappertutto…"😂😂😂 Se non mangi bene t'incazzi"😂😂😂 100% agree, Alessio is all of us northern italians 😂
If you go to the restaurant's website, they don't claim to sell authentic Italian food. Also, if you are looking for authentic food, chain restaurants are not the answer. Also, I don't recommend going to a restaurant and saying that the food is disgusting outloud….you are asking for your next dish to come with a spit on it 😂
Wow, this video saved me some grief. – I looked into who owned the brand, and it's…The Cheesecake Factory Incorporated. Says a lot.
I’m glad to know that actual Italian sausage doesn’t have the strong fennel seed or anise. I absolutely HATE that flavor! Usually it’s anise with US Italian sausage.
It looks like your “polenta” is cheesy grits. Great with southern dishes especially shrimp but not great for Italian dishes.
Pizza is mediocre.
Gotta say though, I enjoy their farm salad and spicy squid ink tonnarelli pasta.
The polenta looked like a crime
You hit the nail on the head, Alessio. Mexican cooks that haven't grown up with the nuances of Italian regional food. I'd say the same thing about mediocre/bad Mexican food prepared by another culture. Good call! 🙂
Eating with hands is better for digestion than fork and knife. Listen to the people in India. Chew slower regardless what you use to eat.
Have two dishes to see if they’re good, if not, don’t waste your money on any more dishes.
It's from Venezia-Giulia region, in Prosecco; in Trieste
chicken
is for sick people 😎
As soon as I saw the pizza, I knew it was going to fail! However, I do hear good things about North Italia.
How long does this gimmick last? Yes you are not in Italy. Yes what we call Italian food is probably not always authentic. How many iterations are required to get the point across is the real question.
Hi iam new to ur channel iam from Sicilia forza da'gro Provincia Messina,mi chiamo guisseppina i love your videos on the different foods,do you cook jessi&allessio do videos on crockpot or slow crooker. ❤❤bravissima 🇮🇹 USA 🇺🇸 my husband loves soccer and used to play soccer ⚽ his team is inter ciao
Agreed- chicken on pasta, yuck. As secondi, ok.
I realize that my Italian American family retained more European aspects than the Americanized words & dishes. Grateful for that, & can relate to Alessio's stance.
Where can one find Kinder Paradiso in the US?
Love your food reviews, so specific. I can tell by looking at dishes that they may be wrong. Bolognese with chunks, wrong. I understand not getting to use boar but sausage meat?! Maybe lamb would be a better choice? Tiramisu in US is a lost cause. You two should do a tutorial on how to make proper one
Alessio, 20 anni a NY e non c'e' verso. Il cibo giralo come vuoi non e' lo stesso. Forse, forse Arthur Ave nel Bronx. Forse.
I got a lot of crap from my family for eating pizza with a fork I'm glad I was doing it his way😊
Once you’re exposed to real Italian food it’s hard to enjoy an Italian restaurant in the USA. I irritate my fellow diners with my harsh critiques, but it’s impossible not to notice once you know better. 🤷♀️
Che sofferenza per una friulana doc come me 😩
The original location is good. When I went to a different one it was like a completely different restaurant. Huge difference in quality of food.
crazy how expensive it is and how much he doesn't enjoy it, wish there was more authentic food
Mi dispiace. Credevo che sarei riuscita a guardare il video serenamente ma già le trottole, con il pollo, con il pesto, con i CAPPERI e Dio solo sa cos'altro sono troppo per me. E niente, eccomi qui a indignarmi per un piatto di pasta 😅
Could it be cream of wheat?
Venite a DC e vi dimostriamo che è possibile portare qualcosa di autentico ITALIANO in US…nel nostro caso LA PINSA ROMANA ma siamo l’unica certificata su questa costa! Vi aspettiamo ragazzi LA CASINA DC
Food in Italy is overrated,USA does it better like everything
Wow. so Alessio can review food without too much drama-acting? I had no idea! 😂 I agree that if we talk about original food you have to address if what you get it's not original.,
However the cuisin has to evolve. Because as a matter of fact some ingredients that the itialian cuisine uses came from america.
Like Tomatoes or Potatoes. So no tomato sauce of any kind as well as gnocchi wouldn't exist. So to some point people have to stay open.
If a new creation tastes good, give it a chance, if not it will be forgotten at one point.
However I think the discussion revolves too much about if a dish is traditional or not. And that topic had be beaten like a dead horse.
But I understand tht if a restaurant is supposed to serve you a certain tpye of dish you expect to be exactly like it. But then again food gest adapted to the country if gets serves. So in this case it's "North Italian food" beeing, very, very much americanized. It might not be ok for an italian, but maybe for americans. And it it's not good at all, people will not go to eat there anyways, no matter what dishes they offer.
Well Jessi, Polenta is on of those dishes that seem simple but are not. It starts with the quality of the flour (made of corn, of course). and goes over of the right mix of water and flour. You can burn it, you can make it too soft or you can make it hard like a brick.
So if you aks how you can mess up polenta, the answer is: "Yes you can!" and it's easier than you might think.
So if Alessio says it's the easierst thing to do only means 2 things: Or he underestimates cooking Polenta, or he has done it so many times that he can't imagine to mess it up.
But once again: Yes you can mess up Polenta! I mean the dish he had showed that it is very much possible!
Can you come to Toronto to review some italian food? ie Grazie the restaurant and others. disclaimer: I'm no expert
OK OK, so where should we go for authentic Italian? Did they ever do a review of a place that this guy likes?

My Italian husband didn’t like the pizza at North either 😂
Is there any restaurant he likes 😅?
Milan is an ugly industrial city and it's the most unfriendly place on earth
The polenta we had in Sulmona was more “runny” than I expected, but the meat sauce on top was an amazing combo.
Wish yall could try this little whole in the wall italian restaurant that me and the wife eat at.
20$ for a Margeritha….. Omg way to much
The best Italian food comes from the south of Italy. I’m a personally prefer Sicilian.
Restaurant style (and I am not talking about typical restaurant) polenta is typically done in "rustic" loaf style. It is usually done like you have it on the plate, OR allowed to set, cut into strips and fried. And there is a fine line between polenta and grits. They are basically one in the same. In fact corn-based polenta is pre-colombian. Italians did not invent it. It is early FUSION cuisine, a direct result of the colombian exchange and versions of it can be found all over the Americas, Southern Europe and Africa.
Love the review!
Oh you guys live in Texas? No wonder he hates the food in America so much haha there’s no good Italian in the US outside of like NY NJ and Philly area. Even Boston is lackluster. Rest of the country has garbage Italian lol
