Il Forno offers a great mix of simple delicious Italian food/ pizza, stylish but laid back atmosphere, and a friendly waitstaff all at a reasonable price. The menu is not overwhelming, which is a good thing because you know each dish you try is going to be a hit. Though the food is described as authentic regional Italian, and it is for the most part, it is not overly snoody in its quest to do so. An added bonus is the beer and wine list is incredibly reasonable, and doesnt make you think twice about the second drink. Pro Tip: Go to the bar for happy hour between 5:00 and 6:30 for half off drinks and appetizers. The bar is open early, but make sure to call a day or two in advance if you want to be seated for the dinner rush.

The place was terrific. The atmosphere and everything you could see was very warming and refreshing. The service was exceptionally great and if you have an allergy, you can ask and they will treat you with utmost respect and tell you everything you need to know. There was also no wait during lunch The food was great, took awhile but not too long. When you eat here it feels authentic. The 17 minute drive for me was kinda not worth it, but once in awhile, its a great spice for variety. Will be coming back soon!

Great experience. Alex was a delight and made it a pleasure to eat there. You must ask for him. The calamari was a treat worth getting, served with pickled banana rings. The veal parmigiano was on point. Be sure to ask for more plum tomato sauce. Paid a litlle extra to get linguini with a saffron cream sauce. Needed just a bit more sauce and some more flavor, but still worth the $3 upcharge.

Short and simple.... from service to food quality, taste, temperature, helpful staff to a wine list on an iPad with full descriptions of the beverages and wine alcohol content..... they are the place for Italian cuisine! And I have the food and traveling credentials to say this...... amazing food.....excellent pricing.... real Italian music overhead even...... come try this!

Overpriced for the quality of food. I actually think I would rather go to Olive Garden. I was shocked that they would charge $22 for a kids chicken alfredo. The food was not great and prices were horrible. The service was ok and the best thing on the menu was the pizza. My family and I will not be going back. Sorry not sorry.

They make really good food, for example they make a variety of fresh made pizzas but instead of getting a new pizza I decided to get a regular pepperoni pizza. They have very good bread and a very good flavored oil loved the pasta and amazing wifi for free too. Great service.

I had the vegetarian pizza grigliata with pepperoni and rice sausage balls. My husband said its one of the best pizzas in the valley. The olive oil mix was different and tasty. The environment was very cozy and our waiter had excellent customer service skills.

I cant even begin to explain the worst service ever!!! If i can give it 0 stars I would!!! Very unprofessional and poor management. No sense of time for the wait. Lack of greeting skills and no consideration for paying customers. NEVER AGAIN!!!!!!

Great ambience and service. Once, in a sudden rainstorm, the staff took big umbrellas and escorted each leaving guest to their car (try and get THAT at Olive Garden). Wonderful Eggplant Parmesan.
