About us

Located in an enchanting setting on the shores of the Lachine Canal, Il Fornetto is a perfect place to offer oneself a moment of relaxation and change of scenery without having to leave the city. Inside, the rustic-inspired though modern décor is particularly pleasant. Yet it is above all for its superb, double-level terrace looking out directly over the canal that people love this place. Open from early in spring until late in autumn, the terrace welcomes you to come and enjoy beautiful the sunsets.

Il Fornetto’s menu takes on the appearance of an encyclopaedia of Italian cuisine. The selection is impressive and includes all of the staples: pastas available as a full dish or half portion, which is great for an entrée, various antipasti and veal and the most important staple of them all, pizza baked in a real wood-burning oven. Here, it is particularly delicious, crispy and topped with the freshest ingredients. Not surprisingly, this restaurant – open since 1987 – shows no sign of slowing down.

The service was really good every time i came here. What i like about this restaurant is that the servers help each other to give service/assistance to every customer. Unlike other restaurants, one customer is assigned to 1 server only. So even if they see you need assistance, they will turn a blind eye because they are not assigned to you. Everyone here greets you with a smile. Even the bakers beside the oven welcomed us with a smile. Very relaxing atmosphere. The food was really great too. I will always recommend this place to others because im 100 percent sure that the quality of food & service will be topnotch.View more

Great ambience but the food is dismal. The sugo for the pasta bolognese was too sweet & without flavor, closer to Chef Boyardee. The quality of the pasta is very low. No olive oil offered with the bread. I live in Italy. This place would never survive here.View more

Service was great, location terrace was great. Calamari tender & worth trying if you go. It's a bit pricy for the quality of food, in my opinion.View more

Il Fornetto has been a part of my life for over 20 years-growing up, I visited often with my parents & siblings, & last night I returned with my partner. It's wonderful to see this restaurant still delivering that classic Italian experience. The food met my expectations-consistent & well-prepared, with a traditional approach to Italian cuisine. I had the Risotto al Funghi, which was creamy with a slight al dente bite, just as it should be 🙌🏽. The Polpette della Nonna were also nicely done, not overpowering with spices or garlic, making them enjoyable for all palates. Their fire oven pizza, with its thin crust, was delicious, & shall I add that the oven itself is a beautiful centerpiece. The atmosphere remains cozy & inviting, perfect for both small & larger gatherings. Service was excellent, as always-attentive & welcoming. Definitely worth the visit!View more

We've been coming here for 30 years & it has been consistently great. One of my downtown friends joined me there this week & he raved about it competing favourably with any "townie" spot. Just don't go during Grand Prix week or Valentine's day... way too busy. Everything on the menu is every good, & the pizza is excellent.View more
