Il Forno RestaurantGreat pizza and pizza ovenGreat pizza and pizza oven but much more. Wonderful staff, decor and desserts. The wine list may need some work, but really liked the place and the people who work there are nothing short of outstanding.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMMUST TRYI took 6 people from my office for a birthday lunch.
We had an amazing experience. Our waiter was very attentive and nice. The food was great. Pizza was fantastic and the salads were fresh and great. We ordered a cheese platter which came with olives and that was great. The calamari for appetizer is a must have as well.
The owner came to our table to see how everything was and recommended their signature desert. Fruit Pizza Pie.
Then they brought a complimentary Tiramesue for the birthday girl.
It was a great experience over all.
A place to go and to enjoy.5/10/2013 12:00:00 AMNice little findWe thought Il Forno was a very nice neighborhood restaurant which we need here in Ballston. The food was good and the service was excellent. Wine list should be improved however.5/4/2013 12:00:00 AMI was worried about tryingI was worried about trying a place this new. But, while they were certainly working out some kinks -- little things like salt and pepper aren't on tables-- the food was great, service quick and ambience great.
I had a salad, which came perfectly lightly dressed, and a margarita pizza which was super thin and delish. Hit the spot.
I'll be back!3/13/2013 12:00:00 AM
