text: North is located at the top of Montford with a bunch of other tasty options that always seem to take priority but my boyfriend and I decided to check it out last Friday We called for reservations and they were able to fit us in after trying a few different options at when we got there the restaurant was half empty and it stayed that way for our entire meal The menu has variety although nearly half the items incorporate pork in some way shape or form great if you like bacon and such but not so good if you do not dine on the swine My boyfriend ordered the boneless fried chicken substituting a side of mac cheese for the standard collard greens and I got the mussels appetizer and side of mushroom bread pudding a savory bread pudding as the waitress described it After waiting for a while longer than I would like to when the restaurant is not hopping for our food it finally arrived nnDuring the ordering process our waitress was helpful but rarely around after that which made it difficult to track someone down when we had problems with our food My bread pudding was cold in the middle cold mushrooms not my most favorite so I sent it back and waited about minutes for them to bring me a new one Almost as if the cook wanted to play a joke this bread pudding was scorching hot and burned black on the top My boyfriends first two chicken fingers chicken fingers not fried chicken as he would expected to get were great but the one after that was rather mushy however his mashed potatoes were the perfect consistency and flavor and the mac cheese came pipping hot in a cast iron skillet with melty goodness nnId give North another shot but I would mix it up and order something different this time I believe it is got great potential but they just have not figured out how to put the pieces together yet
