Pizza was excellent! My husband loves pizza, but is pretty picky about it and is selective with his praise. He said I knocked it out of the park finding this place. The crust is the perfect and ingredients were fresh. I enjoyed that the gluten free was a hand tossed crust that looked the same as the regular crust and not a frozen generic crust.

The calamari was fresh and tender but the sauce that came with it was like plain tomato sauce. The pizza was a huge disappointment- very wet and soggy. The pasta with the “buono” sauce was totally tasteless. Based on other reviews of this restaurant I had high hopes but I was sorely disappointed and paying 70+ dollars for two people was very painful for what we got. I definitely would not go back and do not recommend this restaurant.

We were bringing visitors here for their first experience and they were most pleased. The food was outstanding and our waitress was gracious and most helpful. The whole staff was excellent. A very enjoyable night.
Cindy
Excellent food. We were seated inside and it was a bit loud. Outdoor tents look like a great place to dine next time. Good ambiance

First time here to celebrate my little brothers birthday and it was absolutly incredible. I fell in love with this italian spot. I really enjoyed how creative you can get with your pasta, from choosing your pasta preference, sauce, and toppings. Very good service as well. The ambiance is cozy, unique, and electric. For chocolate lovers, the chocolate gelato is a MUST try!

The servers were very attentive, but the hostess stand was chaotic. They seemed to not know how to handle a small crowd. Noise level inside was off the charts. Sit outside if you can!
Natasha
Food was excellent and service was great. Heba is a gem of a server. She deserves a raise! Truly represents this amazing establishment so very well!

Very authentic Italian food. Delicious meal. Rey walkable if you are staying off Orange Ave.
We visited Garage Buona Forchetta to celebrate my daughter’s birthday with a group of 8. The food was very good (around an 8/10); however, the service did not match the price point of the restaurant. It took about 15 minutes for our server to take our drink order, water was never offered, and sodas were only available in bottles. The server was quite serious and not very attentive. Since gratuity was already included and prices are on the higher side, we expected a more attentive and welcoming experience, especially for a special occasion. Overall, the food was enjoyable, but the service needs improvement given the pricing.

Disappointing experience overall.
There are no kid-friendly menu options, and the environment did not feel welcoming to families. While moving a stroller in a tight space, there was accidental contact with another patron who became aggressive. Staff chose to apologize to the aggressor rather than support a family with children, which made us feel unsafe and dismissed.
Food was average at best, especially compared to other Italian restaurants we’ve had.
Would not recommend this restaurant to parents with young kids.
