IL Forno Pizzeria

I had your pizza, the plain and sicilian with olives, at Cigar Vault (thank you John!) Both were insanly delicious. The sauce to cheese ratio were perfect. The crust held the pizza together really well and was super crispy without being too thin. The sauce was delicious. I can't say enough good things about your pizza! Ill deffinitly be stopping by!

IL Forno is a small pizzeria on the South Shore and has some of the best pizza in NYC. I came here because of Anthony Demontes positive review. I was hoping to try their fresh mozzarella slice but they didn’t have it so I got the Upside Down Square Pizza. The sauce to cheese ratio was perfect and the sauce had a great taste. Their prices also very reasonable and the guy working there was pretty nice.

This was our go to place every Friday. We ordered a large pie with toppings and fried calamari. But this particular Friday my wife wanted shrimp parm heros. After the delivery the owner calls and says I had to charge you $3 more for the parm. My wife ordered on that slice app. So she tells him it didn't say that on the menu. And we order every Friday night and sometimes other nights also. So he gets a little annoyed at my wife so my wife say by they way the last few times the fried calamari was mushy. So he say well I've been getting alot of complaints about the calamari and I'm gonna take it off the menu. What the hell kind of response is that for an owner. Arguing with my wife when he started the problem. ? Any way he lost a twice weekly customer. We now use AMICI'S PIZZERIA a block

Il Forno is top shelf pizza. Being originally from Brooklyn, I moved out of state to Massachusetts where the pizza is HORRIBLE. My kids moved to Staten Island where I visit often. I had my favorite places in Brooklyn, and would travel back over the bridge to get pizza in Bensonhurst. No longer necessary. Once I discovered this place, I fell in love with a new spot. Owner John is a gentleman and gets all my orders (several pies each trip) ready quickly and accurately. This place should be in Zagat.

Really solid pizza, love the vodka slice in particular.
