Reviews for Il Fornaio in Burlingame, CA
Really nice atmosphere and service. However, my lunch today the steak came out barely warm. We had a big group and I didn’t... want to send it back. The front of the house needs to step up and not let food get cold before it gets to the customer. Read more
Just nothing better then Il Fornaio. The best martini… nice and chilly!!!! Definitely love the Cesar Salad and the chicken was... amazing. This is an old school Burlingame restaurant that you shouldn’t miss if you’re visiting. If you’re a localdon’t forget to stop in for a bite and a Martini Read more
I love this restaurant incredibly. I come here almost every weekend. I recommend to try here pizza , Italian wines , pasta with... seafood , steak here is also good ????. The salads are nothing special. There is a small minus is a couple of waiters who areinattentive ( this happens often ???? ) But if you go for food , it won't upset you that much Read more
We went for a private party. I chose the chicken and it tasted like it was doused in sauce. The Caesar salad was the best I... ever had! I should have gotten a different dish but thought I’d play it safe with chicken. Oh well, a good night was had byall! Service was impeccable! Read more

My wife and I came here for my birthday on May 2022 and experienced a dinner to always remember. I ordered off the menu and... requested from our waitress, calamari luciana. Oh my God was it good!!! Our waitress was soooo nice to put in a special ordereven though it was a busy Saturday night. After dinner the waitress brought us a caramel gelato with happy birthday on it. Justanother added touch to a great memory. Great fast service, reasonable prices and a very friendly staff. The waitress andcalamari luciana has made this my new favorite italian restaurant! We will definitely return. Read more
I loved the decor and the large screened windows. The calamari was delicious. The lasagna portions were huge and yummy. The... server was efficient and nice. I ordered the pesto chicken, but it didn't mention all the pieroges dumplings in it. Thespumoni and all the desserts were excellent. Read more
Great Italian food and very nice service! We had a team dinner at 6p Monday night. The restaurant is decorated for holiday... season. Very festival looking and beautiful. We ordered appetizers for sharing and opened one wine bottle to share. Service wasvery attentive. No complaint. Sea food pasta is delicious. Even the bread basket is pretty delicious. The sea food linguine isabout $31. Very delicious but a bit rich. Overall, good restaurant for family and team outing. Very casual but good qualityfood. Read more
