    The food was delicious, fresh and authentic. The service was attentive but not overly so, allowing us to have a delightful leisurely meal. Forno remains my favorite choice for Italian.

    We went here for our anniversary and everything was amazing. I had the Atlantic cod with the tomato risotto and my wife had the asparagus gnudi. For an appetizer we had the bruschetta sample and dessert the tiramisu. I can't say enough about how awesome the food was! Liz and Everett served us at the bar and they were fantastic as well.

    Noise level made conversation very difficult. Bolognese was amazing as usual. Pork chop preparation like schnitzel was extremely tough.

    Way too crowded and so noisy that you could not even have a conversation without really raising your voice. Definitely not worth it for us. Would not recommend

    We were disappointed this time, we were there for our wedding Anniversary which was stated in our reservation however no one with Forno even acknowledged it. We had ask for a certain table in the bar area however it was not really what we had ask for when we arrived. We have been there many times previously and have always had a great experiences so this was a disappointment. Our service started out good but then went downhill from there. Probably not the best idea to have the bartender also act as a server when it’s busy. One dish was good but the other not so great and was not really hot when it arrived at our table. We were brought a dessert menu but then the bartender never came back to take the order so we just ask for the check. Not sure we will go back as it’s too expensive for the service we experienced. We expected better as we have experienced in previous visits.
