Customer Reviews
We accidentally went to IL Forno’s after our 40th anniversary vows renewal rehearsal because I happened to see it on our way to another Italian restaurant. I’m glad I stopped in because everyone in our party loved their food and all commented on how fresh all the food tasted. In fact, we loved the food so much we asked the owners if they could cater our ceremony in 10 days time and they said they could. And right then and there while we were still eating, they came up with a plan and price and the rest is history. The last picture is of the catered hot meal and let me tell you everyone one at the reception had seconds and took the extras home it was that good. And they appreciated that we picked up the food on time. Apparently that’s rare. 5 Stars!
My husband and I decided to give this restaurant a try on Valentine's Day after I heard so many great reviews from my customers. I am so glad we did, their food was delicious. I had the Penne Alla Vodka and my husband had the Penna Alla Chef and both were superb. Oh and the homemade bread did me in:) The Mozzarella Fritta was a great start. Their sauce is amazing. It was a very nice atmosphere, the prices were more than reasonable for the quality of food, and the staff including the owners were extremely friendly and came by to make sure everything was perfect and to your liking...Also had wonderful conversation. I will definitely be back soon to try other items on their menu and also try to save room for dessert.
I had a great experience dining here last Saturday. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the food was absolutely top-notch—true, authentic Italian cuisine. I ordered the chicken parm, and it was incredible. If you’re looking for real Italian food done right, this place is definitely worth checking out
Ann Marie made me the best dirty martini and I have had a lot of dirty martinis! My chicken French still dish was fabulous , the chicken melted in my mouth !
IL Forno accommodated my request for shrimp cocktail and they absolutely did not disappoint. A showstopper from the first bite, the house made cocktail sauce was delectable and packs a punch! A stop on the shoreline not to be missed! Il Forno never disappoints!
