    The food and service at Il Forno is nothing short of extraordinary. The handcrafted pastas are cooked to perfection, and the sauces are layered with rich, nuanced flavor that speaks to hours of careful preparation. While every dish shines, the undisputed must-try is the Rigatoni (Cream sauce and black truffle sausage) —delicately earthy, decadently creamy, and finished with shaved parmigiano. Il Forno is more than a restaurant; it's a celebration of Italian craftsmanship and hospitality, and a place that will keep you coming back again and again. We've been there several times and it just keeps getting better with each visit!!

    What a wonderful birthday celebration I had at IL Forno. Great food (3 types of wood-fired pizzas, salad and antipasto), wine and atmosphere. They also sent over a complimentary Tiramisu with a candle! Service couldn’t have been better. I’m already spreading the word how much we liked it. Bravo!

    Our favorite Italian restaurant in Nashville. Consistently the best authentic Italian you can get. A family ran establishment so well. It’s truly a staple any time we have out of town guests.
