    Thank you James for you great service! We had an awesome experience here today. It was our first time and we loved it. We tried the Iceberg Wedge Primero as an appetizer, Risotto Negro which we really loved, and the Conchiglie Al Forno. The Tiramisu was delicious! The recommendations were made by the server and they were on point. Thank you!!

    Very good food and service at a reasonable price. Great selection of wines and very good drinks. Menu changed recently and a few of my favorites are no longer available, but current menu is still very good. Must bring back the eggplant parm. Already have chicken parm and an eggplant bake that is just not as good as the eggplant parm was. Woodfired pizzas are fantastic. Always get great service especially from Johnny (bartender)!

    So, we ordered a mid-price bottle of chianti and a cheese board for starters. The cheese board described in the menu had apple slices and other things described in it. It came instead with balsamic pickled onions, some charcuterie, olives and huge chunks of roquefort (blue) and parmesan cheeses. The cheese chunks were overwhelming and inappropriate as appetizer, the onions were just not what I have ever seen in any cheese board. Then we proceeded to order a pasta with meat ragu, and added meatballs to it to maximize protein, and decided to split it. They brought the pasta served in soup bowls (???). We casually mentioned our thoughts to the server, who had asked about how everything was going. Suddenly a female rep came to talk to us. We told her what we thought and asked for pasta plates for the pasta, because a soup bowl is just that, a soup bowl. She said their charcuterie board was what customers in general had requested, and that Il Forno does not like for customers to split entrees. We told her that policy should be printed in the menu (which is not). Our server trasnfered the pasta to pasta plates, and we ate it. The pasta was delicious, but our overall experience is that it's not worth coming back, we have many options in town, and we don't like substandard and misleading offerings. The female rep's attitude made an impression. We're never going back.
