Newcomer North Italia making a name in King of Prussia Mall dining scene
It’s going to take a lot more than high-end retail names and notable eateries in the King of Prussia Mall to get the key players for North Italia restaurant to quake.
Nestled between Neiman Marcus and Macy’s, the just-opened North Italia has quickly settled into its big-as-life presence at the heart of King of Prussia Mall’s Savor connector.
Being surrounded by dozens of the dining hotspots that make up a huge part of the still booming King of Prussia dining scene doesn’t intimidate the folks behind the restaurant that is part of Fox Restaurant Concepts, noted manager Desmond Carr, who hails from another concept in the Fox family, a gastropub chain called Culinary Dropout in Las Vegas, writes Gary Puleo in The Times Herald.

With a menu ranging from pasta, sandwiches, salads and pizza, braised short ribs and brunch, North Italia is carving its own niche in the dining scene.
“I don’t really look at it as a competition thing, because we’ve had our own restaurants open literally next door to each other and we trust that one of those restaurants will be able to accommodate customers and it’ll be great. So it doesn’t really take away sales from the other restaurants, it just creates a hub where people can just come and find a great place to eat. Maybe one night someone will be on a wait at (nearby) J. Alexander’s and they’ll decide to check out North because they’re not as busy right now. If the restaurants are all doing well in the area, it’s not so much about competition … people just know they can come here and get a good meal anywhere.”
With its own outside entrance on the lower level, North Italia sports a bright, modern motif favored by many newer King of Prussia eateries and seats 244 indoors, 80 on the patio.
North Italia is located at 350 Mall Boulevard, King of Prussia. Phone is 484-751-9000. For more information, visit northitaliarestaurant.com/KOP
