The food was fine overall. Good atmosphere. I ordered the salmon pasta, which was slightly overcooked for my taste. Parking is available with validation code — 90 minutes free during lunch and 2 hours free during dinner.

The food was a little oversalted to my taste. It was not bad but there are restaurants with better food in this price range. If you haven’t tried good italian, this may work. My husband’s order was done incorrectly so he had to wait 15 more minutes for a new one. Service is slow. Drinks were ok and good wine selection. We probably wouldn’t go back but it is a ok place for a dinner if you want something casual.

I’ve been coming to Il Forno since its opening. An Ocean Park staple. Consistently good. Same chef and workers make it a beloved favorite.

The complimentary bread is the same fresh dough they use for their pizzas. They used to give you free garnish, so it was like bruschetta. But now they charge for the fresh bruschetta toppings. It’s still delightful and I would order it on the side on occasion.

Our family’s favorite is the tagliatelle (black & white pasta) with pan-fried scallops. But tonight’s special was a seafood pasta, but with same delicious sauce. I will order this from now on, when they offer it.

We also order the BBQ chicken pizza. It’s been a favorite for us locals (kids live it!)

If you come early, you’ll often see politicians, sports broadcasters, and other “familiar-looking” media personalities here. Many of them are regulars as the wait staff treat the. We’ll. Actually, the service is really good. Friendly and personal.

We sometimes walk from our house to Il Forno, but the free parking at this plaza is great.

Great food and drink selection, and the service is great as well.
What this restaurant needs is some acoustic treatment of the main dining room. It is near impossible to have a conversation at this place while waiting for your order. It is unbearably loud.

Solid experience. Went for leisurely lunch and it did not disappoint. Food was well made and service attentive but not intrusive. Would definitely come back.

This is one of our favorite restaurants in Santa Monica for over a decade. Always a lovely atmosphere and great service. The food is usually quite good, especially their freshly made pasta dishes, however, on our recent visit a couple of us was not too impress, the food felt a bit off, not as exciting as on our previous visits. Perhaps, a new chef, yo no se… Nonetheless, we have not given up on them and will certainly visit again— soon…

Warm, neighborhood but still upscale restaurant with easy parking, friendly atmosphere, and good food. Nothing spectacular but all the essential pizzas, pastas and meat course were decent.

Great neighborhood place with always great service by Michael. Food is above average and sometimes really great. Big menu with lots of variety. Recent special with seared scallops and black squid ink past was spectacular. Saffron risotto was good but a bit dry.

There’s a reason many consider Italian food the world’s finest cuisine. This place provides an example that proves the point.
Given the menu, the staff, the great location you would be hard pressed to pick a better place to enjoy lunch or dinner.
