   The food was great and so was the service! Thank you Angelo for being a great waiter! We had a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner. I'm very glad we decided to have our holiday dinner at II Fornaio.

   We had a wonderful Thanksgiving meal at Il Fornaio. We appreciated that they had both Thanksgiving and regular options, and that the Thanksgiving feast could be prix fixe or a la carte. The food was great, but wasn't hot as we would have liked. Everything else was delicious. My friend said the ham was a little dry. Great cocktails and wine list. Our server Candy was outstanding. Very friendly and responsive. She was delightful. Nice interior, and the noise level was comfortable and had a very convivial buzz. We were really glad we chose Il Fornaio for Thanksgiving.

   Well, we do enjoy going to Il Fornaio for Thanksgiving each year, the food, while tasty, is usually served lukewarm (every year). Service was spotty this year. I talk to them being busy, however, we got our soup before we even got our drinks. Refills and bread that we had to request and came late or didn’t come at all.

   Yuli was our server. She was so attentive and gracious. We came for Thanksgiving dinner. The place was packed but she made sure we had everything we asked for. Such a lovely evening. We will be coming back!

   Angelo was a helpful server and patient while trying to figure out the menu. He made some helpful suggestions. Our dinner was exactly what we expected amazing. My son is a pretty picky eater but ate the rigatoni and loved it! I was amazed. I didn’t really fancy my white wine but Angelo was attentive and order a replacement red wine. My kiddos and I enjoyed our experience at Fornaio and will return when back in town visiting again. Thank you again for an amazing Thanksgiving dinner experience!! Aloha

   The server that we had today was one of the best servers I’ve had in a long time! Is extremely attentive, my coworker had gone to another Il Fornaio years ago and showed him a picture of a plate that she wanted, and he was able to identify it. Very kind and Attentive. One of my favorite locations to go to!
