Went to True North as a last minute idea because was in the area. Ate at the bar because we like chatting with the bartender and others. Chloe was very super friendly, attentive and offered a great suggestion when I asked. She recommended the baked stuffed haddock. Just wow! One of the best I've ever had. It was unique, flavorful and cooked to perfection. Never had a bad meal here.

True North serves up True Dishes…Glad we had reservations, since the bar & resto was full…this was a good sign. Seated right away, we acclimated ourselves within the locals and immediately felt, as first timers, this was the place to be. You could tell all of the folks here were regulars enjoying their time – whether drinks, apps, or a main meals.Truly, we were looking forward to the experience- and it did not disappoint. Starting off with calamari and french fries apps, we were surprised how well-balanced these two turned out – hot, crunchy, perfect amount of heat (you’d be surprised how often this is off-point) - it really set the stage for our mains. And, those did not disappoint… French Onion Short Rib, Nashville Chicken Sandwich, and for our kids, the consummate Butter Pasta – each one of these dishes were delicious as hoped for. Having lived in Nashville for three years, this hot chicken sandwich lived up to its name, both in heat, taste, and presentation. I would drive back to get this sandwich. This however was outdone by the Short Rib dish- well-proportioned and excellent presentation, it is a hidden gem that melts in your mouth and leaves you satisfied. And, of course, everything washed down with tasty New England IPAs.In all, a surprising find that we would include in our “out-of-the-way little gems” list. We would certainly go back to sample additional items on the menu. Satisfying, homey, and good times. You can’t ask for more.

Our appetizers of Brussel sprouts, Calamari lightly fried buffalo tenders were excellent. Our entrees of Autumn salad with salmon , and shrimp scampi risotto were delicious baked haddock

From the outside you're like "yeah, sure, whatever..." and then after you've hunker down and got some chow and drinks in you do you realize that these cats really care about getting it all right. Delicious.
We had a party of five including one vegetarian. Everyone had good experience including appetizers, cocktails, delicious dinners and ending with

True North is a good but charging $14.50 for a margarita is crazy, just can't afford this restaurant....too bad.
