    By far my quickest visit to Forbici! We sat down at 5:50, had our food by 6:10, and were out of there by 6:20! John was amazing, very attentive and also made sure I knew the chicken Parmesan didn’t come with a side and offered an addition. Also ensured my wife’s food didn’t have any gluten on it

    Very good atmosphere and experience! The wine was excellent and the cocktails. Only downfall i would say that my chicken parm did not come with pasta but was very good otherwise. Thank you

    This was my first visit at Forbici and it came nothing short of great! I came with my girls to celebrate my birthday. Upon arriving and checking in for our reservation at 7:30pm we waited 30 minutes extra to be seat because the restaurant was full. However once we were seated everything went smoothly! The service was 5 stars and food has various flavors and many options for whatever you’re feeling! I tried the Calamari and bread which were both delicious. I also got Pasta with steak and I can definitely say it’s worth the price. I did write on my reservation that I was celebrating my birthday and I’m sure they just didn’t get a chance to look over it because the server wasn’t aware, but she was so nice when she found out and brought a candle. Overall, I wasn’t bothered because I know restaurants do get busy, definitely something they can work on! :)
