Al Forno (Wimbledon)

• Finally made it here for dinner last night with a couple of friends and was pleasantly surprised
• The restaurant was louder and busier than I expected it to be on a Wednesday night
• We ordered the Insalata Tricolore and the Bruschetta Caprese to start both of which were very average and nothing to rave about
• She had warned me that their pizzas are massive and wow
• 22/head which we felt was very reasonable
• The service was jovial and attentive and I will definitely recommend Al Forno for their generous pizzas and lively ambience
• Following a great panto at New Wimbledon Theatre and with tummys a rumbling we stumbled upon Al Forno
• The decor was pleasant with a grand central balcony that is covered with beautiful mosaic work
• The restaurant both upstairs and downstairs look like a rustic barn conversion that is cosy and inviting
• The food we ordered was delicious and plentiful with large pizzas and traditional pasta filling our table
• The parts of the kitchen that you could see in to revealed that EVERY chef and waiter knew EVERY word and I suspect this is a common occurrence
• The manager joined in with 'the show' alongside all the waiters in the restaurant
• Overall it was an entertaining experience with yummy food and a welcoming and merry vibe that made you feel like part of their extended family for the evening
• Medium is good for two and large is good for three
• The restaurant is just a short walk from Wimbledon station and I just love its quirky interior
• Probably the best option in the area for a nice Italian pizza
• Traditional stone bake clay oven and very Italian family atmosphere this is a must if your in the area
• The spirit of Al Forno (Wimbledon) is what keeps me going back time and time again
• Brushed with garlic and filled with cheese and ham (if you choose)
• Even dancing with you on a Saturday night (if you're lucky) and will always end your meal with a limoncello
• On the whole a great place for a night out with friends and feel like your on holiday
• Food is good and the waiting staff are characters
• Lovely decor and nothing is too much trouble
• They have great service and are well priced
• I called up and was told no it's two starters I ordered
• There was nowhere on the menu on Deliveroo saying that that specific dish was a starter and who pays
• I am really unhappy and this is very deceiving
• A good Italian restaurant with reasonable prices
• I came here with a few colleague from work and we ordered a few pizzas
• Tasty and the portions were very generous
