Lovely place to eat. Walk down the keyside to the one with the pink flowers. The food was amazing and the staff were welcoming and knowledgeable. I would throughly recommend this place.

Kinda conflicted here. The vibe of this place is amazing, and the location is top notch, staff as well, but I'm very disappointed with my food in particular.

I ordered the "Foccacia Mortadella" from the lunch menu, not expecting a huge meal, but a nice Foccacia lunch. What I was handed, was a flat, dull and fairly tasteless sandwich with ham and a bit of mortadella. To be fair, it's what I ordered but I expected it to look and taste a little better.

I'm still giving these guys 4 stars because this was only one item on the menu and the rest looked really good. Had a taste of one of the spagetti dishes and it was amazing. Pasta cooked perfectly al dente!

Definetly recommend this place, but think twice about the foccacia on the lunch menu

God mat og koselig plass, men servitørene var veldig stresset og hadde ikke kontroll på bordreservasjonen. Ble litt ventetid før vi kom til bordet.

If you're looking for the perfect pizza experience, Il Forno is the place to visit. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was inviting — cozy yet vibrant, with the delicious smell of freshly baked pizza coming from the open kitchen. It instantly set the tone for what turned out to be a fantastic evening.
The service here was truly outstanding. The staff greeted us with genuine smiles and were attentive without being intrusive. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu and even offered great recommendations based on our preferences. It’s rare to find a place where you feel both well taken care of and genuinely welcomed — Il Forno absolutely nailed it.
Now to the highlight: the pizza. Simply put, it was pizza perfection. The dough was light, airy, and had that perfect balance between a crisp crust and a soft, chewy center. You can tell it was made fresh and baked in a proper stone oven — there's that unmistakable flavor that only a wood-fired oven can give. The toppings were of high quality, generous but not overwhelming, and everything tasted fresh and thoughtfully combined. Whether it was a classic Margherita or a more adventurous topping combination, each pizza felt crafted with care.
Overall, Il Forno delivered not just a meal, but an experience. It's the kind of place that makes you want to come back — whether it's for a casual pizza night, a special occasion, or simply because you’re craving truly exceptional pizza. With impeccable service, a welcoming ambiance, and pizza that rivals the best we've ever had, Il Forno has definitely earned a spot on our list of favorites.
Highly recommended to anyone who appreciates authentic, expertly made pizza and a restaurant experience where you feel like a valued guest from start to finish.

Bestilte risotto her med sjømat, var veldig godt, vi satt i solsteiken så var vel varmt men er vel ikke et stort problem på vestlandet, slet litt med å forstå hva personalet sa men ellers god service, spiser gjerne her igjen, ps-god kaffe var det og

Delicious food and friendly staff. One safety suggestion: consider placing napkins and cutlery away from the candle. Mine caught fire, and I had to run and throw it into the ocean to stop it from spreading, an embarrassing moment… Otherwise, a great experience overall

Veldig god mat, men uheldigvis utrolig vanskelig å få tak i betjening. Man ble på mange måter glemt som kunde.

Betilte medium indrefilet i peppersaus . Måtte levere til bake ,helt rå, ikke fint stykke kjøtt. Men bra med sopp. Fikk ny porsjon, mens eg ventet så ble fløtegratinerte potetene kalde. Fikk ny porsjon med enda verre kjøtt, seigt til å være indrefilet. Lå på en seng av løk og paprika ,sausen var så som så . Utrolig dårlig mat til 400 kr .kona måtte bestille ny biff, skulle ha godt steikt. Men helt rå der også . Dette er lett å lage bedre hjemme . Minnet mest om kinamat av utsende . Men skryt for service fikk rabatt å en beklagelse.
