Authentic Italian cuisine in an extremely large and beautiful setting with several private dining rooms. Not the place for a quick meal, but excellent for a well enjoyed meal experience with family and friends. The meals are delicious and visually appealing, there’s a full bar and it’s topped off with Italian desserts. It’s definitely more pricey than most restaurants.

This restaurant has great atmosphere which makes it a pleasant dining experience. The food was mediocre. My husband had the veal scallopini, and I had the Lasagna. He didn’t like his food very much. My Lasagna was okay. The Tiramisu was excellent and was on the house as a treat for celebrating our wedding anniversary.

We were nicely greeted by the friendly staff. We enjoyed the but as someone who has tried many many italian restaurants, this one is just good. I ordered raviolis, and I can tell that they were not fresh.

My friend and I came here for to celebrate her bday today and had an absolutely amazing experience. From the moment we stepped in, we were welcomed by our server Darlene who was an absolute gem. She was so warm and kind and helped up pick out what she thought we would like based on our food interests. She also gave us a complimentary birthday gelato and sang happy birthday for my friend which showed that she was going above and beyond. I think she really made our experience amazing and we had a great time. Also amazing food!!!!

Great restaurant for Italian food. I’ve been to the Santa Clara location and also the Del Mar location, and this is on par with those two in terms of customer service. The food itself was good, but the other two locations were slightly better.
We got 4 things: Calamaretti Fretti, Cristina, Rigatoni Alla Vodka, Tagliatelle Bolognese.
Both the Rigatoni and Bolognese were exceptional. Flavor was on point; not too salty and not too bland either and it had enough sauce to cover all the pasta. The only minor issue was that the pasta was a little bit past true “al dente”. It still had a chew, but not as firm or as “al dente” as other Il Fornaio locations.
The Calamari Fretti was good as well. The portion was good, the calamari was cooked perfectly, and the batter wasn’t too thick or overwhelming.
The Cristina pizza was just ok. The pizza texture itself was cooked through nicely, but the ingredients used were overpowered by the saltiness of the prosciutto. I didn’t really taste the truffle oil that much, and the mushrooms were very little.
Still, it’s an overall very good restaurant for pasta. The customer service is great, and wait time is not too bad either. Will definitely come back to this location.

Just had dinner at Il Fornio in Walnut Creek. Been awhile since we were here and they have really stepped up their game. Food was outstanding. The Salmon was flavorful and cooked just right. Service was truly wonderful. Water glass never was less than half full. Food was served with excellent timing. Follow up on satisfaction quickly and checked in on how we were doing. Atmosphere was also wonderful. Despite being busy, you could actually hold a conversation without have to yell. Would definitely come back and recommend.

A great place to enjoy a special occasion with family and loved ones. Food is good, multiple options for vegetarian folks as well. Their gnocchi and ricotta cheese appetizers are mouth watering. Chicken Parmesan, Ravioli and pesto pasta were our mains favorites. Their fire oven pizza is a must have. Deserts like volcano and bread pudding are icing on the cake!!
Besides the food, the ambiance and the service was great as well.

We held our lunch here for our annual company retreat and we had a wonderful time. James Cornibe was our event coordinator and his customer service was amazing. He was super communicative and answered all and any of my emails so quickly. He was extremely friendly and answered all the questions we had especially when it came down to catering for our members with dietary restrictions. He kept us well informed leading up to the event and the lunch was perfect. The food was good, everything was well organized and our waiters were wonderful! Would definitely recommend dining here (we were a team of 37 and they accommodated us perfectly). Would highly recommend dining here – thank you James!!

I had the most wonderful birthday dinner at Il Fornaio! From the moment the staff found out it was my birthday, they went out of their way to make the experience special. They gave us a beautiful table, checked in regularly to make sure we were comfortable, and even surprised me with a birthday dessert.
Everyone was so kind and attentive — it really made me feel cared for. The atmosphere was lovely, and the service was top-notch. Thank you to the team at Il Fornaio for turning a dinner into a truly memorable celebration. I’ll definitely be back!
