773 North is a small restaurant with maybe 15-20 tables and a decorative dividing wall between the bar and dining room. The restaurant is family friendly with the most expensive meal priced at $24 (12oz center cut strip steak). The menu is on the small side, but everything we had was well done and very tasty. The french onion soup was delicious with the onions, broth, and cheese perfectly proportioned. Service was excellent and very attentive as well.
Fish: Very good. When the fish came there was a very concerning small pool of oil underneath the tail, but the fry turned out to be very crispy and not greasy at all. Both the batter and the fish was seasoned well. Overall, an excellent piece of fried fish.
Tartar: Very good classic tartar with a good bite of sweetness from the relish.
Slaw: The one negative of the meal. The cabbage was shredded fine, was crisp and fresh. However, the slaw just lacked flavor.
Sides: The tuna mac salad was outstanding. Seasoned beautifully with nice chunks of tuna, well cooked noodles, and a thick, flavorful dressing.
