A Northern Italian kitchen inspired by the Bacari of Venice.

Our menu is inspired by tradition and dictated by the quality and availability of ingredients. We play off the similarities between the climates of Eastern Ontario and Northeast Italy, and create our take on classic dishes made with seasonal game, seafood and vegetables. Plus, sometimes we’ll just add whatever we want.

  • 5 a 7 - Bacaro

    Multiple dates available
    Mon - Wed - 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM
    On practically every calle, salizada and ruga in Venice, you’ll find a Bacaro – a casual place to grab a glass of wine or Prosecco and a bite to eat, known as “cichèti.” Bacari are Italy’s answer to the pub, and cichèti are the Italian answer to Spanish tapas. Italians have an answer for everything. Situated at the rear of the restaurant, our Bacaro upholds the Italian tradition of togetherness. It’s the perfect place to meet friends after work, or to share a casual glass of sparkling wine and a small bite to eat.

    Anna, our server, was wonderful. The food experience was great. The noise level however makes conversation difficult.

    A Memorable Dining Experience! Last night, we had the pleasure of dining at North and Navy, and it was exceptional from start to finish. The ambiance was warm and inviting, the service attentive and thoughtful, and every dish we enjoyed was a masterpiece! We started with a new dish—a beautiful fresh salad served with Kohlrabi, apples, celery and 55 month aged Parmesan. The flavours were perfectly balanced. Every dish that followed was incredible, and the presentation was stunning—it’s clear that Chef Adam, Chef Eric, and their team take immense pride in what they do. Highly recommend North and Navy for anyone seeking an unforgettable dining experience. We suggest that you book the counter for a dinner and show experience! We can’t wait to return!

    An amazing experience overall. Bar seats with attentive and informative service with Quinn. Superbly crafted cocktails made with slight adjustments to meet our tastes. The menu is limited but offers amazing tastes for every palate. Plates are shareable, food is expertly prepared and delicious. Butternut squash mezzaluna steals the show!

    Super expérience, le restaurant est magnifique, service impeccable. Que dire de la vaisselle !!! Pour la nourriture, des haut et bas, il a toujours un arrière goût anormal ou étrange ! On aime ou pas. Pour moi ça été 50/50, mais je ne peux rien dire sur la qualité des ingrédients et les présentations.
