Local favorite for a warm night. Open windows let in fresh air. Parking is along PCH or in the neighborhood...sometimes we get a great spot, sometimes we have to walk a couple of blocks. Hostess staff friendly, menu has lots of delicious options, server Jade did an excellent job.

Yummy, yummy food. Great service. Happy I finally tried the place. Would totally go back. A great vibe.

About my 4th time here. The food and ambiance is always great. The waiter service is very disappointing. Missing orders, never once asked if we wanted another beverage. Didn't offer coffee or desert. Rude attitude from the start. A real pity, because the food and ambiance is really good. Not sure if I will be back though.

First time at Foretti's and was very much surprised. We had heard a lot about this restaurant and now we know why. Well run by Thaddeus Foret and with attentive staff this was a fun & relaxing experience. And the food lived up to the reports! We can't wait to go back.

Foretti's is the best location for an intimate and delicious dinner. You can't go wrong with any of their offerings , especially the seafood risotto or any of the various pizzas.
Jeff
Huge menu so difficult to decide! Special, summer salad was perfect starter. I had perfectly cooked veal piccata and my girlfriend had the cacio e pepe. Great service by Roberto!
Corinne
We were just delighted. My husband always orders eggplant parm and it stood up well to other favorite places. My seafood salad was exceptional- shrimp, octopus, and calamari. But the really special moment was the arrival of the spumoni! It was the best spumoni we have had in a restaurant! House made and filled with pistachios and fruit. We will definitely be back!
Kelly
Good food. Great location. Weak service by a very “green” server who lacked sufficient training.

We had an excellent dinner at the fun & friendly Foretti's Restaurant. It was enjoyable sitting outside under the tent for our evening meal. The food was delicious (calamari, scampi ravioli, lasagne, veal marsala, kid's peperoni pizza, tiramisu, & strawberry sorbet) and the service was spot on. Thank you, Rudy!

This is a nice spot for some good Italian. Had pizza and pasta and it was good; I felt it lacked a little depth. The bread and olive oil was disappointing. Now the service is on point. From the hostess to our server to the manager everyone was awesome. Service like that will have me return. Thank you!
I've know Thad Foret, the Owner of Foretti's for YEARS, and FINALLY got my self to his restaurant! Our reservation was for 6:00 and we were seated right away. The place was packed!. There is an inside restaurant, a tent outside and a patio outside. I probably wouldn't pick the patio again since it is right on PCH and loud cars and motorcycles are annoying. We started with the Heirloom tomato, burrata (and added prosciutto) salad. It was outstanding!! Three of us shared it, but I would have been perfectly happy to keep it all to myself! I had the puttanesca pasta, my friend had the ravioli, another had the lamb and there was TONS of lamb in it!! She declared it delicious. Our server brought us two desserts on the house. i had a chance to have a long conversation with Thad which was a treat. I HIGHLY recommend Foretti's and will definitely be going back!
