    Nice quaint restaurant in Homewood. Our first visit there. We started with the hot crab and artichoke heart dip, amazing. My wife had the lobster ravioli, she said it was quite good. I had Finnochi stuffed pasta with pear and gorgonzola. Also very tasty. Service was on point. Only reason it's not a 5 star is because there were kids running around and screaming. Not solely on the restaurant but should have been addressed. Shame on the poor parenting.

    Margherita pizza + pepperoni

    My wife and I dropped by during dinner service on a Thursday. The parking lot isn't very big but we were able to find a spot. They sat us right away and the server was friendly. It was a little dark and difficult to read the menu. I had an IPA and my wife had a sauvignon blanc on tap, recommended by the server. Both were great. We ordered a Margherita pizza + pepperoni and a birria pizza. As neapolitan pizza goes, they make a pretty good one but I have had better neapolitan crust. Lots of unique flavors and some seasonality to the menu. The Margherita was great and for me, the pepperoni kicks in up a notch. What really surprised me was how good the birria pizza was. Great beef flavor but not overwhelming. The birria sauce was delicious and it comes with a spicy tomatillo sauce that really did the trick. Overall, a great experience and I would go back.

    Outstanding dinner this evening with friends. Some of the best pizza my wife and I have had in a good while. We went with the seasonal peach and Conecuh sausage option with a Cesar salad. The crust was perfect and the pizza tasted great. Highly recommend supporting this local restaurant. Good friendly service and fun environment for a meal.

    Cool spot. The pizza is great overall. I tried the Italian sausage with peppers and onions. Light crisp and the crust has a good chew. Fresh and tasty toppings. Service was decent. I enjoyed lunch on the outdoor patio which had a chill vibe.

    Veal Parmesan

    Consistency is key, and every last time we come here the food is outstanding. We started with the polenta fries and calamari- two of our favorite apps. The polenta fries are perfectly crispy and beautifully presented- their perfect rectangles stacked artfully alongside marinara and aioli. Their crisp exteriors reveal perfectly creamy interiors. The calamari is also wonderful, especially the charred peppers that are included alongside. The really showstopper though is the veal Parmesan. So seriously- HOW do they serve this incredible dish for only $21?!?!?! A massive slice of veal is breaded, fried crispy and deep brown, then finished off with house marinara and a shower of mozzarella and Parmesan. Served on top of rigatoni, this dish is Italian perfection. We also ordered a margarita pizza for the table- a classic for a reason. So good!

    Mozzarella Flatbread with Sunday sauce
    Michelle B.

    Yes Gurl!! We were able to walk-in on a Monday for dinner and get seated right away. Such a good experience!! Ethan was amazing! Watermelon Margarita. Yes! Mozzarella flatbread. Looks so simple but so amazing. Do it! Peach pizza. Life changing. You'll never look at a peach in the same way again. I almost hate to burden the post in talking about the antipasta salad. But yum. Everything was delicious. The service was outstanding and we'll definitely be back. My only complaint is the chairs. They weren't comfortable.

    Burrata (Cheese)

    I'm definitely late to the pizzeria GM party. I went here on a Saturday night and it was busy but not packed. Didn't have to wait long to get a table. We were greeted quickly and got our drinks. We ordered a cheese ball appetizer that was really delicious. I got a Cahaba blonde on draft and it was good as well. there's a little bar in there that you can sit around. There's also an outside seating area because it was hot. We ended up getting an inside table. I ordered the lasagna and it was cheesy and delicious with some toasted bread that I dipped in my lasagna. I cannot remember the name of our waitress, but she was very attentive short with long black hair The parking is a little difficult because there really isn't much parking there so you either have to park near the park or across the street and some other parking lot which being a newbie I had no idea. I will definitely be back sooner than later. If you haven't been, I would definitely put this on your list of places to go eat.

    I love coming here! I came for lunch and the food was amazing. Their staff is always attentive and the food comes out really fast. I enjoy sitting on the patio when the weather is nice. There is lots of shade and they have fans which makes it alot cooler

    Peach Pizza

    We always have a fabulous meal at Pizzeria GM, but it doesn't get better than the summer seasonal Peach Pizza! 10/10 recommend!

    Any gluten free options?

    They have a few appetizers that are gluten free and you can get a salad minus the flatbread.

    Will Pizzeria GM be open Christmas Eve?

    Would this be a good spot for a casual work happy hour? Not a lot of people will eat-- they'll mostly want to stand around a bar and just order drinks. Also, any happy hour specials?

    Not really. The bar area is small. The food is the biggest draw.

If you know me, you know that if there's burrata on the menu, I'm ordering it. Bettola's is one of the most unique I've ever had. It's almost soupy, and it's scrumptious. The wine list is good, and they serve good cocktails. My friends all raved about the espresso martini. This is a great place for date night or to dine with friends and family. They have an option for everybody. Service is great, no frills. I find parking to be very easy in this area. Like Hot and Hot, you do have to walk through a different hallway to get to a bathroom, a little strange but fine. I love the option of outdoor seating, but the inside is a fantastic atmosphere, too. I've yet to try any of the pizzas, but will have to come back at some point, of course :).

Service was kind and very professional, but this is one of those somewhat fancy places where service is more helpful and professional, but not necessarily fast. It's nothing against the server, it's just the atmosphere of the place. Seating is crowded and you almost feel like you're sitting with the other people dining (you know, the strangers you didn't come there with). And the restaurant noise is loud. All of this combined reminded me very much of Bottega on Highland Avenue in Birmingham. I ordered the Bistecca (panini), minus caramelized onions. It was good, I polished it off and enjoyed it. Overall 4 stars because of the loud, crowded interior and the length of time everything took. If you need a quick lunch, you'll need to go somewhere else.

    North Italia is a great date spot... which was mildly awkward because I went with a buddy whose…read morepants I was NOT trying to get into. The lighting is low, the tables are cozy, and the vibe basically demands deep eye contact and meaningful conversation. At one point I'm pretty sure he thought the night was going somewhere... and I had to subtly remind him this was a friendship risotto, not a romance risotto. Aaaaaanyway... the restaurant itself is excellent. The staff was friendly and attentive the whole night. I ordered an old fashioned that came with the proper large scube... always a sign the bar knows what it's doing. For dinner I had the braised short rib risotto and it was a knockout. The short rib was so tender it basically collapsed if you looked at it too hard, and the risotto was creamy and full of flavor. All jokes aside, it's a really solid spot and perfect for a date... or apparently a very emotionally confusing dinner with a friend. If I'm in town long enough on this work trip, I'll definitely be back.

    North Italia's food has the been consistently fantastic! We've been going since they opened. Every…read moretime, without fail, the food hits the mark. That said, pricing has always been outrageous, and it's becoming harder to overlook. For example our most recent trip, we had two mains, and an appetizer, and the bill was $90. Had we gotten drinks, desserts, or any extras, we'd be looking at $150+. I asked for extra tomato sauce to go, and I was given what was literally two tablespoons of sauce, charged at an outrageous $3.50. I get that things are pricier now, but tomato sauce is one of the cheapest ingredients, organic or not and as a chain, I can guarantee you this isn't small batch, nor locally made. The markup here was just shocking. I know things cost more these days, but the price does not match the value. For this price point, you would expect much higher quality dining and you can get that easily in Birmingham. It's still a great dining experience, but we're increasingly cautious because the pricing has been a concern for years. Just something to keep in mind if, like many of us, you're cautious about budget.

My initial visit was for an anniversary dinner and we noted this on our reservation, they were kind enough to place us in a more intimate setting away from crowds this was a Saturday and they were pretty busy but it didn't feel overly busy or loud in the area we were seated. Upon arrival the hostess was very nice and welcoming to the restaurant. We had a selection of drinks all of which we were pleased with. The first round included: Botanica 9.5/10 ($16) it was similar to a gimlet light and refreshing Circa 1975 9/10 ($15) a nice spin on the classic French 75 using Hennessy in place of gin. Second round: Espresso Old Fashioned 8/10 ($17) it had a good flavor and was different and something to get used to with the Espresso. Bocca Russo 8.5/10 ($15) still light and refreshing but felt like something was missing. Food: We split the caesar salad ($16) and it was really good, but size wise was smaller than some other restaurants, you do have the option of anchovies. We did choose to have them I think they had always add to the overall flavor of the ceasar salad. Pan Snapper Destin Florida Red Snapper ($43) was paired with creamy risotto, white wine butter sauce and over dried tomatoes. It had some broccolini on it as well and all the flavors melted together. I was very pleased with the selection I made. I would give it a 9/10 overall. Cast Iron Seared Tuscan Ribeye ($56) paired with tomato butter, artisanal mushroom, and Potato Gratin it also included broccolini. We opted to not have dessert on this visit but hopefully in future we will be able to check out that menu as well. The most recent visit was to check out their Happy Hour which is Tuesday-Thursday 4:30-6:30 pm. It includes a caesar salad, wine and pasta for $29. We selected the red wine for the wine selection but you have the option of red or white. It is a house wine so you don't have a large variety it's literally two options but still for the price it's worth it. The Caesar Salad was a decent portion no complaints there. There are maybe six pastas to choose from and you have the option to add protein to each if you decide. Garganelli with Asparagus (added Chicken $6) 10/10 Primavera (added shrimp $10) 10/10 the pasta had amazing flavor. I would say the $10 for 3 shrimp did seem like a lot but I just know for the future to select chicken of choosing to add to pasta.

Most nice places have started accommodating for non-drinkers with a mocktail or NA menu. They didn't have one, so I asked our waitress if the bartender could make me something. We were surprised when we were charged the same price as the alcoholic drinks, especially when we were offered free champagne in the beginning. Second, I ordered something I hadn't ordered before, the chicken piccata. I knew it was lemon, but this had cooked lemon slices on the top that made it SO strong & it was also so salty, I couldn't eat a lot of it. Worst thing I've eaten here, by far. Third, the couple sitting behind us was extremely chatty with their waiter & tried getting into a political discussion & the waiter took the bait for a bit. Not the place for politics! Let people eat in peace!
