    Delicious. Could be my favourite Italian restaurant in this district. Large "familiar size" Pizza prices are reasonable for three.

    Inconsistent - that’s what better describes the experience with Al Vecchio Forno’s orders. First, if you like something, you will never get the same dish twice. During covid19 times, a tip: NEVER ORDER IT VIA APPETITO. Food does not travel well. Presentation looks TERRIBLE - in the worst condition ever. Do not bother to waste your time in writing any specification - it will be ignored and come not as specified l. No one - neither AL VECCHIO or APPETITO will be accountable for the lousy service: delivering a dish with the one “innovation-never-seen-before” ingredient that is not only NOT in the description but also the one you - the consumer - is DEADLY ALLERGIC TO (but you wrote it in your order). Irresponsible end-to-end service. Italian food? Maybe but NOT from Italy. Today marks my family last time with Al Vecchio Forno - never again. Plus, this is my FIRST EVER (hopefully LAST) negative review.

    Don’t even bother ordering half and half pizzas, they’ll over charge your for no reason. Attendants are nice, just missing a little bit of more communication.

  • 5/5 Charles S. 10 months ago on Google
    Little place is a gem. They have a great selection of pizzas and italian entres. We ordered a pizza capricciosa. It was a thin crunchy crust with tomatoes, mushrooms, ham, salami, anchovies, oregano and red sauce. It was very good. My wife ordered meat ravioli, wich were good, but a bit al dente for her liking. We also ordered a pitcher of sangria which was sweet and delicious. I would recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for italian fare.

    Second time to this place, not impressed the first time. Ordered spaghettini with seafood and wine. First off wine, flat. Second no spaghettini but capellini, ordered another spaghetti dish to go pasta was not even Al dente totally undercooked. I am a chef of Italian food and I was mostly underwhelmed and disappointed with this restaurant sorry but can’t recommend. Service was good though

    For me, it's the best pizza in town. The pizzas are cooked in a firewood oven, which adds a lot of flavor to it. Highly recommended. I go there all the time.
