I ordered a Margherita to go an was given a pizza with meat that was burned in the crust.I had to take the meat off and only ate part of the pizza- not the burnt crusts.Dietary restrictions: Cannot eat processed meats.

One of the best places to go for dinner in the Cincinnati area. Great service, pasta is incredible, and I highly recommend the braised short rib. Good options for vegetarians also. Only slight down side is the dining area feels congested wrt how close tables are to each other.

Too salty food! Hardwood chairs uncomfortable. Grouping of tables exposes view of waiters butts as they step between tables to take orders.

Forno Osteria is obviously Italian in nature. The food is excellent regardless of what you order. Focaccia is tasty as bread and a pizza crust. Bolognese is very good and on Tuesday they run a special. One cannot go wrong with whatever is ordered. Drinks from the bar have flavor and they do not skimp on the alcohol. Not a wine drinker so not able to offer an opinion. Service is very good with the staff being friendly, receptive and patient. Recommend highly!
