“Owner Massimo Ranni learned everything he needed to know about bread from his grandmother at the family bakery just outside of Rome. At Il Forno bakery, all of the bread is made by hand and baked in a five-deck hearthstone oven from Italy. His filone and pagnotta have been rated #1 by the New York Times, but perhaps his most exceptional bread is the pizza Romana, a crisp flatbread topped with paper thin potatoes, coarse salt, rosemary and extra virgin olive oil. Massimo tells me that this bread represents the region that he's from in Italy. After one bite, I wanted to buy a ticket and travel there."

	Menu Mr. Ranni turns unbleached flour, salt and water into luxuriously dense Italian breads and slices of pizza. These slices are not the usual slices; made without cheese, they are fragrant with fresh herbs, vegetables and extra-virgin olive oil. And they're served cold, the way Italian children eat them for breakfast." - Andrea Higbie, The New York Times Antipasti Ruota Di Melanzana 10.00 Baked Eggplant, Mozzarella & Parmigiano w/ Marinara Shrimp Fra Diavolo 11.00 Sauteed Shrimp in a Piccante Tomato Sauce Zuppa di Cozze 13.00 P.E.I.
