Looking for a place in the North End of Boston to bring Mrs. Raybun for lunch.

Since you don't specify type of food, atmosphere or price, let me suggest either Galleria Umberto or Neptune Oyster.

I went to Panza recently for dinner and the food was amazing. It's a really cute little place. They don't serve dessert but you can walk a block and get something delicious at a nearby bakery.

It's too late now, but for any future reference: I love love love the Daily Catch in the North End. (The other ones aren't as good, trust me) It's a weird little hole-in-the-wall with the kitchen right by you and you'll probably sit next to strangers but the food is delicious. Heads up though, it's cash-only, and there's often a line so get there early. Totally worth it for lunch or dinner.

Not fancy, but always tasty: Artu.

Seconding Galleria Umberto. Not fancy, but the food is amazing and the experience is quintessential North End.

Since you're being pretty open ended, you can't go wrong with Durgin Park, and it's right near the North End.

I love Pomodoro.
