Il Fornaio offers excellent service, with friendly staff, including a warm welcome from the hostess. The food is a highlight, with dishes such as calamari, berry lemonade, vodka sauce pasta and seafood mix entree, and fresh pasta pleasing palates. The restaurant's convenient location near the California Theatre and Center for Performing Arts makes it a popular choice for those attending shows. Over the years, many customers have found Il Fornaio to be reliable for good food and drinks. The attentive staff, including a long-serving waiter who has been there for 17 years, provides professional and friendly service that enhances the dining experience. The charming ambiance, reminiscent of a classic dining experience, is complemented by the attentive service. While some dishes may be average, with vegetables occasionally overcooked, the overall experience, especially during special occasions like birthdays, is highly praised. The restaurant ensures timely service, making it a reliable spot for pre-show dinners and celebrating special moments.
