Il Fornaio -Food CA (Near San Jose)

4 /5 A K: Locate inside the Westin Hotel. Came here for a team lunch. We made reservations, so we didnt have to wait. Our server was super nice. The food was delicious, we ordered multiple items to share. Would recommend ll Fornaio for date night, dinner with friends. Check it out

4 /5 Jeff Kao: We were invited by friends for dinner. It is in an historic building with a lot of characters. Service was excellent. We felt a bit cramped at the assigned table. They immediately moved us to a more desirable table. Food was great, but dessert was the highlight of the night. I must be getting old to like sweets? You could always valet park at the front, but we parked about a block away at the convention center parking. The area felt safe for the casual stroll back to the parking garage.

3 /5 Vivian Du: Food was really yummy, but felt like we were being rushed to leave the whole time we were there. Our waiter gave us the bill while serving our dessert, which was okay, but what was not ok was when he came back with the card reader WHILE we were still having our dessert and did not leave until my partner put his spoon down to pull his wallet out and pay. This was also a Saturday night at 8PM, and the place doesnt close until 9PM, so I wasnt sure what the rush was for. There were also plenty of other people still enjoying their food. Either way the experience was uncomfortable enough that Ill go elsewhere for good Italian food

5 /5 SJ Reviewer: I loved the ambiance and decorations. We had in mind a fancy date night, and Il Fornaio delivered! However, I would say that the food was not as high-end as the ambiance suggested, although it was still great. The service was prompt, and again, great but not extremely friendly. Overall, I would suggest this place for a mid-fancy date dinner or celebratory group meal.

5 /5 Lorne Shantz: I travel for a living so see lots of places all over the world. I went at 6PM so it was not too busy yet. I had the Linguine Mare and it did not disappoint! Nice portion size. Huge scallops. Would highly recommend
