Reviews for IL FORNELLO in Richmond Hill, ON
The service is mediocre as I felt we were being rushed and she was not very friendly like a host should be. The food taste nasty... there was a hair in my food lost my appetite instantly. Would not recommend. I am actually very disappointed as I expectedgreatness they need real authentic Italian chefs in the kitchen we should have know the food was awful because it was sooooempty in the restaurant. My drink was amazing though off the cocktail menu. Read more
Nice Italian restaurant, there are some other Italian restaurants in the area and this is the best I have tried so far. Waiters... were nice and polite. Their menu is not that big; I liked it because it makes choice simple and easy for customers) andeverything we order was pretty tasty. Read more
NOT Recommended at all!!! Rude services and mediocre food. This is my personal experiences, others may have better... experiences then mine. The hostess was extremely rude. I’ve been to all kind of higher end restaurants. Never seen ahostess stare at you like you owe them money. She didn’t speak a single word , no smile , basically impolite and at first Iwasn’t even sure if she work there. (Long hair , short, heavy set). When I ask for a table, she brought us to the smallesttable in the centre of the restaurant when there are a lot of empty bigger space seats around. (And those seats are used bymainly two diners just like us). I hope it’s not because of the race minority issue we’re getting. It’s justunbearable and unacceptable. I can’t believe the restaurant hired such incompetent employee. The actual waiter was justokay... he seem extremely busy and somewhat not as friendly as the other waiter and waitresses in the restaurant. The food.Fried Calamari was tasty. Salmon on the other hand was absolutely terrible, for the cost of 32$, it taste pretty much like homemade , very dull, nothing stand out. The potatoes and carrots don’t have much taste either. If you are to charge a higherend price tag. The main course definitely didn’t meet the high end expectations. Maybe I should ordered an Italian dish butthat’s no excuse for mediocre salmon. I’ve also ordered another desert just to go (it’s cheese cake and it taste okay,nothing special, loblaw made the same quality for less). because I figured I want something sweet to cheer myself up butdidn’t wanna stay in the restaurant. I came to this place base on the google review and apparently I’m assuming mypersonal experience was just very different. I want to rate two stars but was just really frustrated and angry for such lousyexperience I’m getting. To be fair the fried calamari was good but that’s all. Other restaurant offer same calamari withgreat main course and much Read more
We had a table of 13 and our new friend Gabriel was absolutely wonderful, patient and very courteous. He took great care of us.... The food and drinks were tasty and cooked exactly as we requested. No complaints here for sure. Will go back in a heart beat Read more
Great service and good food. Portion is larger, good for groups of 4 or above to share. Wine selection per category is around 4.... Not bad but could have been better. Read more
Had a nice lunch here a couple days ago. The pesto pasta was one of the best I've ever had, and I would totally recommend it.... The seafood didn't taste as fresh as I hoped it would. It seemed like it had just been microwaved. Similar with the chicken, ittasted like the oven roasted chicken you'd find at Costco. But our server was nice, and it wasn't too busy. Read more
We went to celebrate a milestone birthday this past week and we had a great experience. The server Steven was so nice and... helpful. We were a party of 11 people. The food came out hot and on time. The calamari was delicious and the chicken parmesanwas a big hit!! Thank you for accommodating our personal cake and thank you for great service. While the food and service wasexcellent, the pricing for some items was a bit high. Definitely recommend Read more
Service was good, food was okay. We ordered rogue creamy pasta, carbonara and a salad with goat cheese, mixed greens and... walnuts. The salad was fresh and tasty, and the pasta with rogue was great but the carbonara tasted sweet, I have no idea whybut, I assumed that that’s the way it is! Their brewed coffee smells so good.
