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.

Great service & great food all-round. The pizza is excellent & the service is fast. We were there on NYE & we didn't wait for anything despite it being completely booked. My daughter is lactose intolerant so we bring our own cheese. NO PROBLEM. Amazing I wish all places could be as accommodating.

Now use a special gas oven but still delicious pizza
A little noisy.

Très belle expérience & excellent service. La salle est juste un peu bruyante - mais cela ne nous empêche pas d'y retourner!

Voilà quelques années que je n'étais pas retourné. Pas de surprise, toujours une bonne cuisine italienne traditionnelle, avec un service efficace. Les gnocchis arrabbiata étaient bons mais un peu trop épicés à mon goût.

Lovely evening with friends. We have been going to this restaurant for over 30 years. Parking is very difficult . Good service.
