Fort Lauderdale, FL – November 11, 2023 – North Italia, the modern Italian concept known for its scratch-made dishes, seasonal menu items and craft cocktails, is expanding its portfolio in South Florida with the opening of North Italia Fort Lauderdale on Wednesday, Nov. 1. Joining restaurants in Dadeland Mall and Brickell, the Fort Lauderdale opening will be followed by an additional new location in Aventura in November at The Esplanade at Aventura, establishing North Italia as South Florida’s favorite destination for modern Italian fare. Located in Flagler Village at 699 N. Federal Highway and conveniently situated near the historic Parker Playhouse and Holiday Park, North Italia Fort Lauderdale will occupy more than 7,000 sq. ft. on the ground floor of mixed-use office space, serving as the go-to spot for business lunches, after work happy hours, and dinner with friends and family. Indoor dining, surrounded by coastal inspired art and collected pieces reflecting the laid-back vibe of the neighborhood, will seat more than 130 guests. The covered outdoor patio will feature larger-than-life splashes of color in the form of hand-painted murals by Mammoth Murals, and the expansive bar creates an open-air feel connecting the indoor and outdoor areas.
