   We had a wonderful Christmas Eve dinner from start to finish. We were greeted with a warm smile by the hostess and seated within a minute of arriving. The holiday decor was cozy and bright. The table and dining area was clean. Our server was very knowledgeable and our food arrived in a timely manner despite how busy the restaurant was. We will be back in the future.

   Service was average. Food was surprisingly mediocre. Not bringing family or clients again.

   We were seated right away. Ambience is good - nice Christmas decorations. Food was great - there's just a little wait for the food to be served. Overall - great dining place!

   This ilFornaio is our favorite location in San Jose. Menus selections are the same, however the staff at this location really work as a team. Seamless transition of service from the waitress to the food delivery made our experience enjoyable. I can’t forget the supporting cast members who provide requested items (water, bread, condiments), again an enjoyable celebration of my wife’s birthday. Thank You

    Many large holiday parties which made the restaurant loud. But I would come back.
