    Great atmosphere for a nice dinner. We really enjoyed this restaurant and then we noticed that it's part of the same group as another restaurant we found in the area and liked very much. This restaurant group is worth visiting. Food, and service are definitely above par. It's nice to visit an establishment that obviously spends time training their servers how to properly serve; it's noticeable and very much appreciated. Keep up the good work, we'll be visiting both restaurants again while we're in the area. Our server Jaymes was engaging and efficient. Bravo Il Forno!

    Great choice! The food was tasty and many different options to choose from. Yohan our waiter was very respectful and knowledgeable about the menu items. Provided good options for appetizers considering it was our 1st time dining in. Overall 5 star experience!

    From the moment I order my drink the waiter didn't get it right, the appetizer was amazing, other than that everything went wrong! The main dish was cold, I told the waiter about it and his reply was he was going to let know management, we ask for the check and paid everything in full no body from management approach us or at least try to discount the food! Nothing. I will not be dining at a place where they don't value customers.
