I do not recommend the patio/parking lot seating. Given it is not part of the main restaurant, service was spotty at best. Once served, the food was excellent. Recommend the cioppino and lamb chops.

Foretti’s was recommended to us as an authentic Italian restaurant. It did not disappoint! Robert was our waiter and was fantastic. This is a small restaurant with a great vibe. Our first visit. You could tell many of the patrons were regulars. We had a Caesar salad and Baked Ziti with a Long Island Iced Tea; and the house salad with Meat Ravioli and a glass of Moscato. We were celebrating our 49th wedding anniversary and they gave us our choice of dessert on the house. We picked a molten chocolate cake with vanilla Gelato. We loved everything about Foretti’s save one – the parking is challenging. They seem to do a robust take out business. If you do go dine in, suggest making reservations.

Have been twice and had the gluten free bolognese and gluten free pizza. Both were great, but the gluten free pizza crust was amazing! Came with a group for a birthday dinner last time and they brought out a scoop of gelato with a candle to help us celebrate. Lovely atmosphere and both times we’ve had great service.

We drove from Denver to celebrate the 4th of July in California. I found this gem and am so glad that I did! The food was delicious!
I have to eat gluten-free, and I was excited to see house made gluten-free pasta on the menu. We showed up without a reservation, but the gentleman running the establishment let us squeeze in between reservations.
The service was friendly, the food flavorful, fresh, and sustaining, and the ambiance was chill but lively. I highly recommend.

This was our first time there. I was hungry for a steak so had the ribeye. Should have had the pasta as the ribeye was not the quality that I’m used to. Everything else that my other guests had was very enjoyable. The atmosphere is awesome service was great cocktails were good should have known to order a steak and an Italian restaurant but all the pastas is handmade fresh there.

My wife and I were out enjoying a walk through Corona del Mar when the smell of delicious Italian food caught our attention—and it led us straight to Ferretti’s. We decided to turn it into an impromptu date night, and it did not disappoint.
We were seated right away, the ambiance was warm and inviting, and the service was friendly and efficient. The food was fresh, flavorful, and reasonably priced—just a really solid dining experience all around.
Parking was also a breeze with free two-hour street parking right out front, which made the whole evening even easier. Ferretti’s has that cozy neighborhood charm and great food to match. We’ll definitely be back!

One of the best pizzas we have had outside of Italy. My son has celiac and the gluten free pizza was done better than all of the restaurants we have been to. He also has allergies to all nuts and they were able to accommodate with no hesitation.

We tried Foretti’s for the first time and it did not disappoint. We didn’t have a reservation but they got us seated in their heated tent space with no problems. We had multiple servers who kept my kids happy with endless supplies of bread and homemade pesto (SO good!). The pizzas and pastas (lobster ravioli, bolognese and a shrimp pasta special) were mouthwatering and we left extremely happy and with a new favorite restaurant to add to our list. When we got in the car, my kids already asked if we could go back. By the way, the holiday decor only added to the charm of such a beautiful space.

Best Italian food in California hands down. This food was tastier than grandmas home cooking and she came here straight off the boat from Italy. Our server James was very attentive and always made sure our classes were full. The food is prepared super quick so we got appetizers first then our entrees. Cocktails and wine were delicious. I highly recommend the lamb ragu it tasted amazing, the lamb was tender and the pasta was handmade. The owner really needs to bottle and sell their pesto though.
