“Probably my favorite restaurant in Branford. Best lobster bisque hands down! Service is always so wonderful, kind and accommodating and the food is out of this world.“

“Lobster Mike 🦞Awesome guy and the lobster is delectable! Had won this years prize and went with making lobster rolls. The lobster meat provided was sweet and lobster rolls were the best ever ! Thank you, Mike“

“Love the new make over. The service and food are great!! However the noise level is so uncomfortable and the was not a full seating. So bad that the hostess had to go outside when answering the calls. Highly recommend sound proofing panels.“

“I have been ordering takeouts at Il Forno for the past seven. I started with bacon and onions pizza which was great. I then changed to eggplant pizza and it has to be the best I have ever had. Now I have moved on to shrimp marinara with linguine and I can't tell you how great this dish is. The shrimp are so large and fresh and the sauce is excellent. The filet of sole must weigh at least 2 pounds and my husband gets it every week. The filet is enough for two meals and so is the shrimp. Thank you Il Forno for making our Friday takeout a special treat.“

“I really had to come here to put a good review because I had such an experience with a few people at breakfast this morning at a different place. Lunch however the lady that seated us and our waitress was so fantastic and friendly it restored my faith in people.“

“I literally can’t believe how incredible the food was. This is what casual Chinese used to taste like back in the day. It was as if I was a child tasting boneless spare ribs and crab rangoon for the very first time.. The spare ribs were charred and tender and the rangoon was made with actual crab as opposed to the typical “crab flavored” cream cheese. The pork fried rice was also remarkably flavorful with large cubes of pork and perfectly cooked onion. Those who have complained about the food specifically must be miserable Karens. This is my new favorite casual Chinese spot. 10/10“

“Underrated by far. The food here is excellent in every way and made with care. Highly recommend!“
