Absolutely loved our visit to Il Forno a Legna! The pizza was incredible — fresh, flavorful, and perfectly wood-fired with that delicious crispy crust. You can really taste the quality ingredients and the love they put into their food. Cozy atmosphere.

Absolutely great experience. There's a new Michelin star chef and he's switching up the menu every so often...my food was amazing. Lump crab pappardelle pasta was exquisite! They also improved their bread as it baked on order. Just a great dinner overall.
