In 1959, Frank and Tina D'Ambrosio decided to start a new restaurant venture along with their "Paisans" Mario and Enza Volpe, after Frank had much success with his first restaurant, the original "Frankie, Johnnie, and Luigi Too! In Mountain View, CA. Named after a good friend of theirs, they opened the original "Giorgio's" in the Foxworthy Shopping Center in San Jose, CA. One year later, cousins Anthony and Louise Dambruoso, affectionately known to the family as "Sash and Lou", took control of the restaurant and ran it for the next eight years. Pictures and paintings of these folks still grace the walls of the establishment today. In 1968, Frank's four sons assumed control of the restaurant and still own and operate it to this day. In 1997 they opened a second location in Milpitas, CA, in 2023 another in Morgan Hill and now back in Mountain View, where they still offer the highest standard of quality food, service, and value to their customers. Bon Appetit!!

    Delicious food. Excellent service, but the music was awful and loud. We weren't able to talk with our friends. It's not a good place to talk and enjoy dinner at the same time

    I am totally biased as I may have been to Sundance over 500 times over the last 20 years, but this is the most consistent restaurant at which I have ever dined. The staff is incredible, the food is very good and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming. The level of care they have for their customers is really unparalleled! I am a big fan and hope all will enjoy Sundance too.

    My party and I had a very nice lunch at Il Fornaio in Mountain View. Easy to find and plentiful parking. Nice ambiance and attentive wait staff. The Insalata di Pere was outstanding. I also enjoyed the Pollo ai Funghi, followed by a wonderful Affogato for dessert. I recommend each of these dishes, as well as the restaurant itself. I will definitely return to Il Fornaio in Mountain View!

    Excellent customer service. One of the new partners in the restaurant came to our table and talked about their vision. When he had to leave the restaurant unexpectedly, he made sure someone came back to our table to find out how our meal had been. Food was also excellent. There were just enough options on the menu—not too few or too many choices. We will definitely return!
