Happy Customers
Amazing Italian food in Horsforth. Unsurprisingly, very busy with a full restaurant of diners; great reflection of their food and service. Despite this demand, the service was excellent with friendly staff! The decor definitely reflects the lovely atmosphere of the Italian. No hesitation, the food was ready in almost no time. Absolutely delicious pizzas and pasta.
I regularly go to Il Forno now; it is definitely the best pizza around!! The staff are so friendly and attentive, service is quick and the pizza is amazing. The ice cream is also lovely!
My favourite pizza restaurant! The biggest, freshest most delicious pizzas. My second visit & I was remembered-lovely & friendly staff who take the time to make you feel valued. I was particularly impressed with my children receiving pannetone as a gift. Prices are excellent!! Can not believe how little you pay for fantastic food & service in a lovely setting.
