Great food and service. We had an amazing server (sorry didn’t catch her name but she had an Australian accent) who went above and beyond for our group of 6.

Decided to try out IL Fornello because they offer vegan options, as there are dairy intolerances in our family. We found the food was delicious, and moderately priced for quality and portion size. The ambiance is a little lack luster, and felt a little more industrial for an Italian restaurant. Was a little shocked they were not busier for a Friday night. Service was on the slow side and lack luster, especially for a restaurant that wasn't busy. We will most likely return because of the vegan options for dairy. Hopefully this place will survive.

Great restaurant. Could use a bit more decor as it seems a bit plain in the main dining area and noise travels across the open space. Good seating areas not to crammed. great server. Great food.

We always have a nice time. Younger possibly Australian female server was delightful. She was quick and attentive and seemed to be the only one serving but it was a quiet evening . We didn’t have to wait long for drinks or food, both of which were delicious. I had their salmon and it was cooked perfectly and served with fresh veg and roasted potatoes, I was very happy with it. My friend had the chicken Parmesan, which was excellent. The chicken was tender and more than enough. We didn’t not go away hungry! Ambiance is always relaxed and quieter, but we always go on a Tuesday night.
