Locate inside the Westin Hotel. Came here for a team lunch. We made reservations, so we didn’t have to wait. Our server was super nice. The food was delicious, we ordered multiple items to share. Would recommend ll Fornaio for date night, dinner with friends. Check it out

We were invited by friends for dinner. It is in an historic building with a lot of characters. Service was excellent. We felt a bit cramped at the assigned table. They immediately moved us to a more desirable table. Food was great, but dessert was the highlight of the night. I must be getting old to like sweets? You could always valet park at the front, but we parked about a block away at the convention center parking. The area felt safe for the casual stroll back to the parking garage.

My wife and I went yesterday, February 14, 2026 for Valentine’s Day dinner. We didn’t have a reservation and the hostess found room for us and we were truly thankful. We had the Tomahawk steak, mashed potatoes and spinach. It was OUTSTANDING. A host, and the chef himself brought our dinner after thoroughly preparing our table. Our server was also outstanding. We LOVED our evening. Thank you again to all.

Food was really yummy, but felt like we were being rushed to leave the whole time we were there. Our waiter gave us the bill while serving our dessert, which was okay, but what was not ok was when he came back with the card reader WHILE we were still having our dessert and did not leave until my partner put his spoon down to pull his wallet out and pay. This was also a Saturday night at 8PM, and the place doesn’t close until 9PM, so I wasn’t sure what the rush was for. There were also plenty of other people still enjoying their food. Either way the experience was uncomfortable enough that I’ll go elsewhere for good Italian food

I loved the ambiance and decorations. We had in mind a fancy date night, and Il Fornaio delivered! However, I would say that the food was not as high-end as the ambiance suggested, although it was still great. The service was prompt, and again, great but not extremely friendly. Overall, I would suggest this place for a mid-fancy date dinner or celebratory group meal.

I travel for a living so see lots of places all over the world. I went at 6PM so it was not too busy yet. I had the Linguine Mare and it did not disappoint! Nice portion size. Huge scallops. Would highly recommend

A good Italian restaurant but a bit disappointing. First on the positives, it’s in a historic building and a great location. It’s also a very classic feeling Italian. The customer service is excellent. The staff is friendly and attentive.
I couldn’t give this five stars because my beef carpaccio was below average. The lemon sauce overpowered the taste of the beef. The cheese was not fresh- I’m guessing it was shaved but the block sat there and aired out too long.
They say the pasta is homemade. The minestrone soup was delicious. The beef ragu sauce was good but unremarkable.

Been here a couple of times before a show and super happy with the experience. The restaurant is beautiful, inside an upscale hotel. The interior feels open and airy and the architectural design is beautiful. You never feel closed in. If we want to treat ourselves to a fine, indulgent meal, this place checks all the boxes. Can’t wait to go back.

A beautiful restaurant perfect for a night out, situated inside the Westin Hotel. We had 3 lunches and dinners here and even though we eat plant-based we never left hungry. Everything was absolutely delicious from appetizers, to salads to mains to dessert. Staff was great and super accommodating
