    Food was honestly not great given the price. Trying to be authentic, but flavor was lacking

    I was there for lunch with a dear friend to celebrate her birthday. We chose a few appetizers to share as we like to eat small plates. the brussel sprouts were nicely charred and seasoned, the calamari crisp not chewy, the meatballs large and meaty not spongy. Our waiter CJ was attentive, fun and efficient. I would go again for sure!

    Not sure if a one star for food and one star for service is justified. Really I would give no stars. Overcooked pasta, overcooked calamari, one of my group did not even finish their dinner after one bite

    Excellent service, food was very good, decent Italian wine list. Two suggestions. 1) grate the Parmesan cheese table side instead of offering in a shaker commonly used at a pizza restaurant, and 2) Balsamic vinegar on the table with the olive oil for bread. Overall, would return without hesitation.

    We had a 4pm reservation on Saturday 11/16. We were seated at a great table in the main part of the restaurant. Our server approached us immediately (can’t remember his name…wish I could right now! young man in late teens, early 20’s. We talked about our dogs and the fact that he has a lab) Anyhow-I manage 30 people in the food and beverage industry and can tell you that our server was AMAZING. So refreshing to go out and get great service. The food was amazing too! I got the Osso Buco and ate the entire thing because I couldn’t stop 😆 Really amazing night with great service and great food! Thank you 🙏

    We had a great experiemce at Sforno. Cayden was our waiter and he was fantastic. We look forward to going back when we are in town and have more time to try dessert.

    Server was very pleasant. Appetizers  we’re cold would’ve been much better. Had they been hot? Main entrées were just OK. The chicken Parmesan appeared to be pre-cooked and warmed up as the texture was not what you would expect overall it was mid range in our opinion. Better options in Boulder.
