Can always depend on a great meal and service at Il Fornaio - San Jose!

We had a fantastic dinner with kids and enjoyed the privacy and flexibilty of dining in the private room. Great quality food and great service.

What a fun and delicious evening! The only thing that outmatched the food was the incredible staff. Service was above and beyond outstanding! We enjoyed the bruschetta, gnocchi, duck lasagna, brocollini, whole white fish and the rib eye steak. Cocktails and dessert were creative and scrumptious! We could tell a lot of care and passion went into everything. Shout out to Esther for making the night super fun and memorable. We will be back for sure!

We've celebrated at the San Francisco Urban Putt before and this was our first time in San Jose. Have to say it was absoultely fantastic. Celebrated my wife's birthday with a group of 9 folks. The staff really made everything so easy and wonderful for us. We had a great time putting 9 holes and then had dinner. Pizza, loaded tater tots, smashburger, crispy chicken, gem salads... we're all very tasty. Will do this again!

A unique San Jose gem. It’s located in what was previously a car repair shop. Inside you’ll find an eclectic collection of player pianos and jukeboxes which randomly play. You order at the counter. Menu is Italian and European influenced. We sampled gnocchi and scampi, both prepared with a light hand, cooked perfectly. The gnocchi was delicious. Tried the shrimp puttanesca that had a fresh tomato sauce with shrimp, olives, potatoes and artichokes. Their house petit sirah accompanied nicely. The atmosphere here is casual and fun. They have a soda fountain with milkshakes and other fountain favorites. They’re only open on Friday and Saturday. So make your reservations for some tasty food in a fun ambiance.
