Il Forno Classico

I've been eating here for more than 10 years. Their bread is amazingly and the menu is strong. Great neighborhood restaurant. I've never been disappointed. I wish they would allow small dogs on the patio, that's the only thing that keeps me from coming more often. If they change that policy, I'd eat here twice as much.

One of my favorite neighborhood restaurants. They've been here forever and really have something for everyone. From family dinners to Girls Night Out -- Il Forno fits.What I love: their pasta is delicious and hearty. Some seasonal dishes (try the butternut squash raviolis in the fall). My husband loves the risotto. If I want a leaner, less-filling dish - the ahi salad and appetizer are a nice twist in an Italian spot. And you can NEVER go wrong with their sausage+prosciutto pizza. I add some Chianti and sit by myself in bliss. They start every table with focaccia and oil+balsamic and it's the hardest thing to not immediately smash into my mouth. Service is steady and consistent. They do get busy, and it can be a little loud. But doesn't take away from the goodness. Sit in the back and pop by the tiny bar. They have a great wine list.

We were taken out by my wife's brother for her Birthday. I have never been here before . They had reservations and were already there when we arrived. It's in a strip mall along Sunrise Blvd. Lots of parking. The place is a good size. I thought it was connected to Il Fornaio's but they are totally different. I think owned by one family. It was funny. When I was walking up to the front. The sign kind of reminded me of a card house or casino. The wife got fettuccini with mushrooms and she really liked it. I got the lamb chops and they were good too. I wish there was more meat. Still , nice flavor. I don't like polenta but theirs wasn't to bad . They had lasagna and it was good too. Her brother had to return his since the side was burnt. They gave him another one and it was all good. We had a nice time and would try this place again.

Happy Hour (3-5pm) is great here! The ambiance is one of my favorites (Siena, Italy, Palio, Tuscany vibes!) and the drinks are generous and yummy! Bartenders are super nice and helped my friend figure out a good mocktail. They were so busy I did have to go up to the bar to get help for another round...a teeny tiny bit frustrating yet am super glad they stay busy, tho, love having them close by. Food is yummy and would welcome a few more appy choices.

We had a tribute dinner to toast my recently deceased father in the private room and it was perfect! We'd like to thank the staff who did such an amazing job for the kind of dinner we had. The food was fabulous, everyone - vegetarians, seafood lovers alike loved their meals. Some of our favorites- Calamari - "best we've ever had"Bread - "I could eat just this amazing bread for dinner"Crème Brûlée - our dads favorite dessert and it was sooo good -Meatballs - "Perfect"Thank you! Delicious and memorable!

Came here with a friend for dinner Friday night at 6pm. I was immediately greeted when I walked in. I asked for a booth and the host was able to accommodate it. I ordered Chicken Scaloppini Alla Classico. Chicken was tender. The green beans were a bit undercooked for my liking. Mushrooms were perfectly cooked. Overall dish was good but a bit salty. Complimentary bread was good. Who doesn't like free food :)Service was great and attentive. Food came out pretty quick. Portion was decent.

The food and service consistency here is impressive. Lively vibes. Found in a slightly hidden plaza in Gold River. Great selection of wine. Fresh and delicious house rosemary focaccia with balsamic dipping oil. I always over order here with the intent to have leftovers. Portions are also generous. Don't judge me but this is my order:Burrata SaladGrilled Artichoke Carpaccio Pennie with Italian Sausage Ratatouille add Italian Sausage Everything else, everyone I go with orders is usually good too. This is just what I order Anyways, try it for yourself!

I recently took an out-of-town coworker to II Forno Classico for a delightful dinner, and it was a fantastic experience. The restaurant's pasta bread was simply divine, with a perfect combination of softness and crustiness. It was a delightful accompaniment to our meal, and we couldn't resist having seconds.The atmosphere at Forno Classico was nothing short of great. The elegant and cozy ambiance created a welcoming and relaxed environment. The dim lighting, comfortable seating, and tasteful decor added to the overall charm of the restaurant.The attentive and friendly service provided by the staff at Forno Classico was exceptional. They were attentive to our needs throughout the evening, ensuring that we had a memorable dining experience.Overall, Forno Classico is a must-visit for anyone seeking a delectable dining experience. From their mouthwatering pasta bread to their impressive wine selection and inviting atmosphere, it's a place that leaves a lasting impression. I highly recommend it for a delightful evening out with friends, family, or colleagues.

Love Il Forno for their amazing pizza and flavorful focaccia bread! Their ratatouille is also a must-try. Huge wine selection with great prices, especially during happy hour. The atmosphere is cozy and the service is always friendly. Highly recommend!

Great service and ambiance. I had the haibiut and was rather disappointed as there was not any flavor in the dish. My dinner date had the beef tenderloin and she said the same thing about lack of flavor in the dish. I have eaten there on more than one occasion at lunch and have thought the food was good. I will go back, but I will not be having the halibut or the beef tenderloin.
