Starwood Hotels & Resorts - Tucson Local Guide: Restaurants / Italian / NoRTH

NoRTH is the epitome of trendiness – the urban ambience is defined by sleek lines, white leather, exposed brick, and dark wood, plus awesome panoramic city views. Their forte is wood roasted and grilled dishes; not just meats but virtually everything on the menu has at least one ingredient that has seen the inside of the wood-fired oven. From high-end pizzas to steaks to the humble grilled artichoke and lemon aioli appetizer, the smoky flavor of an open fire adds depth to even the simplest Italian-inspired dishes. The extreme popularity of NoRTH means that it's often crowded, but on a positive note there are three other locations to visit: in Scottsdale, Glendale and Denver.
