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.

Very fast service & good pizza! Great place in the summer to look over over the canal. Only downside is it is right next to a busy street

D'habitude j'aime la nourriture & l'ambiance est bien, sauf que la dernière fois quand je suis allée à ce restaurant, le serveur a choisi le pourboire sur la machine sans me le dire & s'est donné un pourboire très généreux de 25%, je n'avais pas réalisé qu'il avait déjà mis le pourboire & j'ai payé sauf qu'après sur la facture j'ai réalisé que le pourboire avait été choisi pour moi parce que je n'aurais pas donné 25%. Je suis allé voir le serveur pour lui dire que je pense qu'il y a eu une erreur avec le pourboire & il a compris immédiatement ce que je voulais dire donc je suis certaine que ce n'était pas un accident & il a sorti 5$ de son portefeuille & il me l'a donné. Lorsque sa collègue lui a demandé ce qu'il se passe, il a dit que c'était juste un malentendu. C'était évident qu'il l'a fait exprès.
