Il Forno Hell's Kitchen

Great food, great and entertaining service (however, somewhat slow), great location. Ate here two nights in a row and am very pleased with everything Il Forno has to offer.What I ordered- Penne A La Vodka (add steak)

Quaint little place - a late night bite to eat after a hockey game. Had 1 of the friendliest young waiters around. Caesar salad - kinda good & large. Complimentary homemade bread - good . Wood fired thin tomato pizza - excellent. Bottle of Sauvignon blanc . Ended up being really good overall

This is a phenomenal Italian restaurant. It's close enough to Times Square you can walk and far enough away to get great service and great food. The head waiter was awesome and they had everything we asked for. The food was amazing!! Can't believe it took us this long to find it. (Last night in NYC). Highly recommend!

3 stars for good service, speed and convenience to the theater district. Food is meh. Much better real Italian places to eat in NY. Very convenient in theater district bear theaters. This is the type place people love if they haven't had better Italian. Prix fixe for $34 isn't bad (appetizer, entree and dessert)Caesar salad was the highlight of my meal. Very basic but good. Chicken Marsala was a disappointment. The sauce was super thick and forming a skin. Chicken was uneven, like a whole chicken breast just dumped in sauce. Orzo was extremely bland. Had to cover the whole meal in salt and pepper. Even then I couldn't finish it because of how not good it was. Other dishes walked by looking great. Tiramisu arrived completely frozen. Very clearly frozen in big batches. Not real marscapone. The cream part just melts like ice cream. As my husband put it: none of the food was specifically bad Service was fast and pretty good.

Yummy food convenient to the theater district! We were looking for a spot to grab a quick bite after a matinee of Parade and after being unable to score reservations at a couple spots, we were pleased to find this place. I had one of their pizzas, the Black Label and was definitely pleased! My companions got the flavorful and impressive Penne Alla Vodka. Service was quick and friendly and our waiter was super attentive. It added to the eclectic ambiance of this spot that right in the dining area, you could watch the pizza being prepared in front of you!My menu was a little ratty but I will definitely return next time I am visiting Broadway!

Would give 3.5 stars if possible- it's a solid option for an early pre-theater dinner but wouldn't go out of the way for it. I had the fusilli bucati with braised beef ragu and ricotta on top which was good but nothing to write home about. The service is quick though and it's very cozy in there.

I was disappointed with the spaghetti and meatballs. The sauce wasn't too flavorful and the meatballs were small and lacking flavor as well. Husband had the chicken parmigiana and the pasta that came with his was much more flavorful. Won't be going back on my next trip to NY. The ambiance and decor is nice though

My husband and I walked around for a while before we chose this place to dine. The atmosphere was so nice and the staff was excellent! We each had a glass of wine, shared a Caesar salad and had a Margarita pizza and a pepperoni pizza. The food was delicious! Would highly recommend!

Highly recommend dining at IL Forno and enjoying the beyond excellent care of Maestro Omar! I squeezed in at the last minute, actually right after closing. Omar & staff were happy, kind, helpful and accommodating anyway, unlike the service I received at my hotel, The Westin down the street. I am trying to stick to a Mediterranian diet, so I ordered the salmon. It was so flavorful, jucy and delish it may be the best salmon I have ever been served. The saute spinach was PERFECTLY cooked and seasoned. Again, PERFECTLY cooked, not over cooked like what you are served at most resturants. I really cannot speak highly enough about IL Forno, Omar & staff. I was served a fantastic meal, when they were trying to close, served with tact, humor and consideration. One of the highlights of my trip to NYC, without a doubt. Thanks Omar!

I loved eating here, the service was great, and the wall designs looked lovely. Their bolognese, risotto, and cannoli tasted so amazing.
