Thank you for choosing Il Forno, award winning and critically acclaimed by ‘The Times’ as one of the top ten authentic Italian restaurants in the UK.
We are passionate about great food and wine, served in a vibrant, warm and friendly atmosphere, by people who care and who have a passion for true service.
Our search for the best of ingredients and produce never ceases. Our cured meats and cheeses are sourced direct from the producers in Parma and Salerno respectively, where tradition, authenticity and a commitment to quality means everything. Our extra virgin olive oil, the very essence of every Italian kitchen, is produced exclusively for us in a remote mountain village in Basilicata.
Our desserts and ice creams are also all made with the same passion and desire thus ensuring that you finish off your meal in true ‘Italian’ style.
Our wine list is unique and comprehensive and spans across most regions of Italy, along with a little company from our friends in the New World. If you need a little help in choosing, let us assist you, without you having to break the bank.
Enjoying great food and wine is two of life’s great pleasures and we sincerely hope that you experience both during your time with us . . . today and always!
‘Buon appetito!!’
