Never disappointed when I go here. Food, staff and atmosphere are always outstanding.
Highly recommended.
Tuesday night; restaurant was crowded and table next to us was very loud. Server was excellent but service was slow, probably because of crowd.
My favorite restaurant in Saratoga. Food and service are always exceptional.
Food was delicious. Service was spotty. Ambiance was pleasant.
First, thank you for being open and for all of the safety precautions enhancements you've made during the pandemic. Investing even more into your customers during a time of economic strife in your industry is noted and appreciated. As usual the food, service and atmosphere are all outstanding. Another great night out with our family was greatly appreciated.
First of all- delicious food! The covid safe barriers between tables were gorgeous and in my opinion actually added to the overall experience. It was romantic and warm/cozy inside and we would definitely eat there again.
Absolutely amazing! Always work a visit.
Always really good!
Forno Bistro was a great experience.
We had a table reserved but the party did not leave on time so we were seated at the bar, what a great experience!
The bartenders service was superb and the food was great. Management even checked in with us to make sure all was good! Will definitely return!!
Charming place with a local feel at the edge of the main road in a touristy town. We liked the vibe, and we thought the food and service were excellent.
Love love love this place !
Everything is awesome
We had a great evening. Jessica was our waitress and she was fabulous. Then sat at bar for dessert and after dinner drinks and Luke was awesome. A true conversationalist. He was friendly and knowledgeable.
Socially distanced , great service and of course food.
This was our first time going to a sit down dinner since Covid struck and it was a perfect time! The food was delicious our waiter was personable but gave us space and the interior was cozy but not cramped and everything was clean. I've already recommended this restaurant to others who are just as excited to try it as I am to go back. I'm hoping that when we return it is as just as good as the first time. One cool feature was that all the tables had dividers but they were still tables so it was the benefit of a booth with the comfort of a table.
Great atmosphere, service and food. The wood fired pizza is to die for!
Nice restaurant to be at physically but food left a lot to be desired. I am all for quick service but how can an order be on your table less than five minutes after ordering? Even the plate was cold. Bread was good.
Made a reservation, table wasnt ready had to wait about 10/15 minutes but once we were seated we had a fabulous time, food and service were fantastic. Would definitely go back again and recommend to family and friends.
Nice atmosphere.
Great waiter.
Quality cocktails.
Great apps and dishes.
One of our favorites.
Food, service and atmosphere were wonderful, highly recommend!
We were visiting Saratoga on a short getaway. This restaurant was the PERFECT SPOT -great food and cocktails. Many options in the menu. Excellent pizza. Fantastic service. I would go here again without hesitation. I wish I lived closer!
Great service Steven was wonderful!
Great place. Staff were so professional and helpful with the menu questions we had. It was a busy evening but we were brought to our table on time and enjoyed the food, ambience and wine
Great food! Great service! Great ambiance!
Need more attention brought to 1 hour 30 minute time slots and limited availability for drinks!! Was very disappointed when I felt rushed on Valentine’s Day. Along with this, the online website includes multiple different drinks that were unavailable during my visit. This needs to be made clear to your customers. Forno is my favorite restaurant, however I must say this was the poorest experience I’ve ever had while dining there.
the food and service were very good , i did find the music a little too much for a restaurant , something more subtle would have been more appropriate . overall a very nice dining experience
This is my favorite restaurant in Saratoga Springs. The food is fantastic, besides the regular menu there are always specials that are excellent. The entire staff is awesome from the hostess, busboy, server and manager. I have to give a shout out to the bartender Luke, he is truly a mixologist with creative drinks. Make sure to make a reservation its a very popular restaurant even if you want to sit at the bar. Wine list is superb, I particularly love the Chianiti selections and the pizza is a winner. Whether you are a local or visiting make this one of your safe bets.
Great food and service! The calamari, aranci, and gnocchi were delicious!
Everything was off this Friday. Frutta de Mar was spicier and less flavorful than usual. The green beans were undercooked then when notified about that they brought overcooked green beans to replace them. They gave the impression that they weren't going to do anything about it until the last minute when they salvaged the dinner by comping our two paid beverages.
Excellent food and excellent service. They have done a great job with Covid 19 separation too.
Dinner was delicious! Our server was attentive and knowledgeable . We were in town visiting, but will definitely return:)
Like always, great place to dine, wonderful staff, enjoyable evening, thanks for staying open.
We came for the Chowder event, I’d say 7/10 for the chowder. But...I ordered a penne dish, claimed to come with red sauce then topped with Italian cheese and garlic and fresh basil. When I got my plate, it was LITERALLY just penne in red sauce. Just a blob of red, with penne underneath. No fresh basil nor any garlic (for presentation and/or flavor) to be found in the dish at all. I had to ask for a side of fresh basil and garlic to add. TBH the red pepper flakes and parmigiana cheese that I got off the TABLE were the tastiest ingredients in the dish! Lol, not okay for an Italian restaurant. My gf said she also felt her entree was underwhelming. And, she had paid $11 for 1/4th of a glass of wine.... She wanted more but wasn’t willing to pay another 11 bucks for two sips. Although, My beer was only $6 was good size and tasted good. The two tiny cannolis for dessert were the tastiest part of entire dinner. But with an $80 price tag for the two of us, it was quite underwhelming, and we will not be spending our time or money there again ..... both regret and wish we had gone somewhere else for the Chowder fest event. Is not a good place for a date. More for a group of 3-5 people to chill.
Waited 45 for table with a reservation. Food good but very small quantity for price. I have been supporting restaurants during this difficult time but won't go back there.
The meal was great as well as the service. Had the unfortunate table near the door ams was chilly but still loved the night!
Server was energetic and knowledgeable, however the food wasn't fantastic, especially after finding multiple hairs......
Service was awesome but the food was not as awesome. The mushrooms were cold. My pasta was not favorable. Very disappointed
Forno was awesome as usual!!
Great eggplant dinner, and terrific service at the bar.... Luke is the best!
They have really done a nice job of making it safe for customers - no plastic barriers - nice wooden, rustic dividers.
We sat at the bar - the service was fabulous! Great drinks and very personable! Will go again! Thanks for a great night!
