Professionally run corporate restaurant. Excellent service, nice space, standardized dishes, premium prices. Nice option for a low risk business lunch or first date. Food quality uneven. We had sparkling water ($9!), mixed meat appetizer (good size, uninteresting meat selections, weird addition of parmesan hunks for the cheese selection), pistachio pasta (nice flavor if you like your pesto mild, cold undercooked pasta served in an unwarmed plate), and grilled mixed fish. The grilled fish plate was beautiful to look at, less enjoyable to eat. Nice fatty piece of salmon, well cooked but over salted. Too moist, stringy/undercooked scallops without much flavor; very low quality. Nicely done good quality shrimp, perfectly cooked; lots of salt. Potatoes well cooked with too much salt. White fish was fine, not much flavor. Greens were undercooked and room temperature. The carrots might have been the best part of the dish; very flavorful and perfectly cooked. That’s all we had: $139 including tip.

Enjoyed a wonderful lunch at Il Fornaio. The service was excellent, staff attentive and every dish was beautifully prepared—perfectly cooked and packed with flavor. A delightful dining experience that I’d highly recommend for anyone looking to enjoy quality food and great hospitality.

Had a fantastic experience today. My girls wanted spaghetti bolognese and so I took them here. The staff and food were great. However the highlight was the older gentleman who I think was the main chef, came over with pizza dough and condiments and made pizza with my 4 and 6 year old and then went and cooked it in the pizza oven for them. This was not charged and was initiated entirely by the chef. It was the highlight of the day and the girls and I will be back for sure.

This dessert deserves a 5-star – with its perfect mix and harmony of flavors and texture. Just ask for the one with pistachio (forgot the name). Both pastas we ordered were filling and the one with vodka sauce was the winner for its taste. Pleasant Holiday ambiance with white tablecloth inside and more casual, sunroom-like setting in the additional area with a fireplace. Attentive staff.

We stopped by Il Fornaio on a whim, craving a quick Italian bite on our way home, and it absolutely hit the spot. We dined at the bar, which had a nice, relaxed vibe — perfect for a casual yet elevated experience.
We ordered the carpaccio, gnocchi, tiramisu, and cortado — and every single item delivered. The carpaccio was fresh and beautifully presented with arugula, capers, shaved parmesan, and a bright touch of lemon. The gnocchi was tender and comforting, and the tiramisu was exactly what you want it to be — creamy, balanced, and not overly sweet. The cortado wrapped everything up just right.
Shout-out to our barman, who recommended a fantastic Italian beer (Menabrea — crisp and refreshing) and was super friendly, helpful, and easy to talk to.
The overall ambiance had a classic charm — from the elegant dining room to the cool hallway lined with vintage Italian racing photos.
A great spot for a satisfying Italian meal that feels special and cooked with care. Highly recommend!
