Il Fornaio

A beautiful day after Christmas to have a family lunch at Coronado island. My mother in law’s family was originally from Sicily, Italian food is always the top choice for our family. This place serves authentic and delicious Italian foods. All of us felt happy about the foods, service and the drinks. The view here is amazing, you can see the line of San Diego downtown across the bay. I’ll recommend you here for a family and friends hangout.

Sorry, we were so ready for the food I did not take many pictures. This is a multi-star restaurant in a multi-star location. From the receptionists to wait staff, all are top notch. Authentic Italian menu, appetizers, soups, salads, pastas, seafood & steaks & a full bar. Very affordable for an upscale night out, the location on the water will impress locals & visitors alike. We had a big group (large semi-private room) & all were served in a timely manner & dishes were perfect & delicious.

I planned a destination wedding for my daughter from Texas. After, much searching online I decided on this restaurant. Alexandra, an events coordinator, worked with me on planning a reception dinner for 40 and it turned out so beautifully! We really enjoyed being by the water in the Il Morro party room. The food was delicious and service was great! Thank you for helping make my daughter Candy’s wedding day so special!

U know, with the views I really wanted to love this place. Unfortunately it didn't pan out due to the service. The food was good, not spectacular but well plated and tasted good. The portions were a bit small. I started off ordering calamari which was light, crisp, and tasty, no complaints. We also ordered bruchetta which was only 3 pieces for a table of 4. 3 pieces is nonsense. After ordering our drinks and apps I kindly asked the waitress for a cocktail napkin because I have invisilign braces, and cannot eat until I remove them. Having another couple to eat with this wasn't ideal for putting on the table, so I waited patiently after the apps were dropped of to get a napkin, but eventually had to use the paper liner from the calamari to wrap them and pocket them. No Bueno. I also ordered a Americano coffee with a double shot expresso, which tasted fantastic, about a little under halfway through another waitress swiftly took it from my table. I tried to holler I wasn't finished with it but she was gone with the wind. When my waitress came back I mentioned to her the situation and she replaced it, yet billed me for another new one. No Bueno. When our dinner arrived we requested the bread to indulge with the pasta sauces, not only is it no longer free but it arrived after all of us finished our meals. To boot, we were drinking agua panna, and on the 3rd refill a different brand arrived to our table.... I hate bombing waitresses or restaurants, but this was embarrassing. I will not try again. The Italian restaurant in Logan was far better than what I experienced here, for a fraction of the price, and much bigger portions. 🤌🏽🤌🏽👎🏽
