Had a great time with family to celebrate birthday. Entrees & service far exceeds our expectations! Ambience totally the best in the South Bay Area. Specialty Eggplant appetizer & Lamb Chops, LINGUINE MARE CHIARO, and SALMONE ALLA GRIGLIA entrees are the best; prepared with care & excellence! Kudos to the chefs & service crew!

We are always looking to find a new spot to try and this was the place we went with. Was a nice spot to dine in at. My pasta was good, staff was friendly and attentive. Wasn't really worth the price of what was ordered but overall it was a nice time out.

So my girl & I went there on a "spur of a moment thing" when she got back from Colorado the atmosphere was nice, it was a late lunch for us so it wasn't crowded yet i had steak...yes rib eye steak at a Italian restaurant, it was cooked perfectly portion was a nice size the asparagus cooked & seasoned even better(my favorite) but the steak just needed a little more flavor in my opinion, my girl thought opposite, we different palate's, she enjoyed a pasta dish (unfortunately i can't remember the name) also had cocktails that were pretty good if your from Italy (little bitter for my taste) dessert was awesome...this is a "come again" place for us to try other items.

The place is very good. You can go there on an intimate and romantic date or just to have a few cocktails and appetizers on any given weekend. The service is courteous, attentive and very professional without leaving friendliness aside.

I have been to other Il Fornaio locations and this is the only one where my food, the Mediterranean bass was just okay. The service acted irritated with substitutions. We had about a party of eight and many of the people ordered the chicken parmesan and felt it was weird that it came with mashed potatoes instead of pasta. Every other time I've been, I've had such great food and service. This was an exception. Atmosphere was great but all else was meh at best.

For me it's was just meh....nothing special. We went there for lunch. Ordered the caprese traditionale and RAVIOLI LUCANA. The tomatoes in the caprese salad were not even cut so uneven that I didn't even enjoy the presentation. Maybe that was done on purpose but it didn't do it for me. The burrata also didn't taste fresh. The raviolis were very lightly stuffed with the sausage filling and they tried to overcompensate with the tomatoes. I understand restaurants being more frugal but reducing portion size and such but it was more pasta and tomatoes than filling. Service was ok although they were very friendly.

We have been in this restaurant a couple of times, and we have some mixed feelings about it. At first we did not really like it, but from the second try, it was a lot better. We were practically the only visitors, and the personnel was very welcoming. The food was also a lot more delicious. Overall, it is a worthy place to visit.
