The seating inside was standing room only and it was just a little chilly to eat outside although we would have since there were heaters by the outdoor tables, but it was just windy enough to make it a little uncomfortable. We ordered our pizzas to go and I bought a ginormous cookie that was freshly baked and perfect to snack on while I waited for my pizza. This place is clearly a local favorite because it was packed with people and came highly recommended by the resort concierge where we were staying as well as Google maps. Our pizzas were delicious and the staff were all extremely welcoming and thankful that we waited, even though it was a pretty short wait for our pizzas.

Did not go here for pizza. We were looking for a BBQ place we saw on Diners, Drive ins, and Dives. Apparently that restaurant reverted to catering only and this place sells a couple of the items from the restaurant we saw on TV. They did not offer the fried chicken I went for, but they did offer two other items they featured on DD&D. We ordered those two items and they were only okay. Saw several people picking up pizzas, no one eating in. I cannot comment on the pizzas, but based on the two items we did have, we won't be going back. NOTE: We did check for the restaurant online and it did show up with the address we went to, but the restaurant's name was not on the building, just the pizza place. From now on we will check further, but this is the first time we have had this happen when we went in search of a restaurant we saw on DD&D, and we have done this many times.
It's December and after eating a lot of Soup at home lately, my wife was craving Meat! We hadn't tried the WTF burger yet and it was just the thing she was craving: Ground beef, under bbq brisket, under bbq pork under maple bacon served next to fries. Just the presentation coming out of the kitchen was worth the $20. I had the special pizza: chanterelles and comte. It was $29 but it was blanketed in chanterelles (which aren't cheap), and the comte was complemented with lots of tarragon. I found the service attentive. It's refreshing to find a neighborhood restaurant with the owner on duty. After Cafe Citti closed its doors Locals have been looking for a place that caters to us and I think Il Fuoco is that place. BTW WE went at 5:00 on a Friday and their was plenty of parking. I've never been to Italy so I had to Google Cacio e pepe arancina and Mitto Frito which are Italian specialities. Think we'll be back for those next time. Love the old photos of Italian movie stars, including a very young Sophia Loren, lining the walls.

Seriously the best pizza in Sonoma. Priced about the same as The Red Grape, but infinitely better. If this restaurant was on the Plaza, there would be a line around the block. A real treat. Don't deprive yourself!

Pizza is ok but the manager/ owner is a clown

If you want a decent pizza, it's a good spot. Don't go there if you're looking for even at least decent service, even for takeout. I spent almost $100 on takeout for three pizzas (including tip), and when I walked in, there was no hello, no smile, just a look. And when my order was brought out, not even a look at the handover. Did I even get a "thank you" or a "have a good evening"? Seems like a little too much to ask for... Having spent over 15 years in the industry, I can't fathom treating a guest even remotely that poorly. Very disappointing.

$4 extra for gluten free (burnt crust) and $8 for a sparkling water (which is $3 across the street). I'm local and they just want your money.
Sorry but pizza here does not taste good. Got the mushroom pizza and idk what the other stuff they added but it does not work. Sauce is already so sour they add lemon as part of the ingredients as a topping. Also had soo nu h cooked onions it was gross. Crust is fine nothing special but probably the best part of this pizza which is

When it was Cochon Volant, it was my favorite barbecue place whenever I visited Sonoma. I wasn't exactly sure what to expect when I showed up to find it had become a pizza restaurant, but I love pizza almost as much as I love bbq. In keeping with the restaurant's bbq roots, a specialty pizza called WTF is available (bacon, bbq brisket, bbq pork, sausage). Yeah, I ordered that. Very good! So, anyway, I now have a new favorite pizza place whenever I visit Sonoma.
