    The waiter kept stepping on my coat and bumping into my handbag hanging on chair. Also, the steak carpaccio was ice cold. The filet mignon tips that came with the pasta special was well done when I asked for it to be cooked “medium”. Overall it was not worth the money I spent.

    We have been there 4 or 5 times now and the food, service and ambience is excellent. A mystery as to why it has not been more crowded yet, although it is so good that I am sure that it will catch on soon enough and I wont be able to get in. So go while you can still get a table! It is that good!

    We visited Forte Restaurant for a casual pizza night, and it was a great experience. The menu had some unique options that piqued our interest, and we decided to try the White Clam Pizza and the Hot Mike's Pizza. My wife loved the White Clam Pizza but for me the standout was the **Hot Mike's Pizza**, which featured Hot Soppressata, Tomato, Mozzarella, and Mike’s Hot Honey. The combination of spicy and sweet was exceptional. The soppressata had just the right amount of heat, and the honey drizzle added a perfect touch of sweetness, elevating the flavors. This pizza is a must-try for anyone who enjoys bold, contrasting flavors. The service was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere made for a relaxed and enjoyable evening. We'll definitely be back!
