" Dinner at La Fornaretta was lovely. The pasta tasted like it was made in-house, and the flavors of the tomato sauce were vibrant and authentic. However, the noise level was a little high, which made it hard to hold a good conversation. " (*Curated Review*)

" My group had a rough experience. We arrived promptly for our reservation, but we were kept waiting for an unusually long time before being seated. The food, once it arrived, was good — especially the lasagna. But the service afterward was painfully slow and not very attentive. Still, I might give it another shot based on the food alone. " (*Curated Review*)

" This restaurant has hosted celebrations for our family multiple times, and it has always been a pleasure. The food is consistently fantastic! I'm particularly fond of their pizza — it makes me feel like I'm back in Italy. I recommend calling ahead for reservations since it can get quite busy. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved our date night at La Fornaretta! From the moment we walked in, we felt like part of the family. The fresh bread with oil was a great starter. My husband adored his Carbonara, and I was very pleased with my Eggplant Parm. The tiramisu for dessert? The perfect ending! Highly recommend reserving a table. " (*Curated Review*)

" Our dinner was lovely! The setting was welcoming and had a rustic vibe, which I enjoyed. Delicious pasta and wonderful service rounded out a great evening. Just a note: it can get very busy, so I advise making a reservation. " (*Curated Review*)

" My friends and I had an incredible evening at La Fornaretta! Every dish we ordered was bursting with authentic flavor. I particularly loved the Caprese salad; the tomatoes were sweet and juicy. The atmosphere is vibrant and full of life. I can't recommend this place enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" Our family had dinner here last night, and it was fantastic! The seafood pasta was incredible, loaded with fresh clams and shrimp. Our server was prompt and friendly. The only downside was the noise level; it got pretty loud as the place filled up. Still, I'd highly recommend this restaurant for authentic Italian food. " (*Curated Review*)
