Lachs was great, but I remember the Pinselschetta tasting much better last time. The soup was interesting in ingredients (Pear and Parsnip) but did not taste remarkable. And the pasta tasted great, but cooked a bit under. View all feedback.

Discovering Forno Vecchio through Open Table while house hunting was a delightful surprise. Known for homemade pasta, bread, and desserts, the owner warmly greeted us and recommended the lasagna and Bolognese, which did not disappoint. The staff was attentive and accommodating, even helping us with relocation details. The crispy Brussels sprouts and reasonably priced wine added to the excellent experience. The overall atmosphere was welcoming, making it a top choice for Italian cuisine in the area. Whether enjoying a romantic evening or a group gathering, Forno Vecchio stands out for its delicious food and superb customer service.

Went out for dinner and this used to be a good place. The service was slow and the food was not what we were used to. Then we heard it was under new management/...

Excellent outdoor location lead to a very romantic dinner evening. Food was fabulous. Even had jazz music from across street as entertainment. Highly recommend.
