Best Italian food in California hands down. This food was tastier than grandmas home cooking and she came here straight off the boat from Italy. Our server James was very attentive and always made sure our classes were full. The food is prepared super quick so we got appetizers first then our entrees. Cocktails and wine were delicious. I highly recommend the lamb ragu it tasted amazing, the lamb was tender and the pasta was handmade. The owner really needs to bottle and sell their pesto though.

Definitely will be back. I can’t say that about a lot of restaurants in Orange County. I try new places weekly and most are one and done. This is a place we will come back to again. We cleaned our plates! The food was amazing! The service was amazing. Marco our server was the best! He was always there when we needed him at the right time and never interrupting you with a mouth full of food and bringing drinks with eye contact and hand signals from across the room when he was serving others. The guy is a pro!

Absolutely fabulous dining experience! My boyfriend and I stumbled across this restaurant and decided to give it a try… We were blown away. For starters, the atmosphere was delightful. Although it was quite busy there was an overwhelming sense of relaxation in the air. The chairs were comfortable and the space was well lit and well decorated. The food was delicious, well priced, and came out lightening fast. We got the burrata, pink bow tie pasta (HIGHLY recommend this for a refreshing summer pasta dish), and a margarita pizza. Everything was great.

After a beach day called ahead and ordered 3 pizzas. Owner stated 20 mins and by the time we got there we just had to wait a few minutes. This pizza is totally worth the price. Dough is soft and perfectly cooked. Toppings are amazing! We got margarita, pepperoni, and wild mushroom. 3 adults and 3 kids later… everyone was happy and full. 12 inch pizzas fyi. Didn’t eat there but heard people needed reservations.

Very good Italian food. Reservation recommended. This is an intimate restaurant both indoor and outdoor covered patio seating. Many excellent dishes and professional servers. Forettis is certified to make Napoleon pizza and is the only restaurant in Newport certified. Extensive wine list and full bar.

We liked it so much we came here 2 weeks in a row. Everything is yummy! So far tried chicken picatta, lamb chops, ravioli, and a lemon pasta dish with shrimp. All were excellent as well as the service. We prefer sitting in the tent since not as loud as main room, but that main room is more charming.

Our group had a terrific meal on a Sunday night. Yes, it was crowded at 8:30 and a bit loud, but not unexpected. Service was very good, and the food was excellent. We all had various pasta and meat or seafood dishes, all around $22 give or take a few bucks, so quite reasonable by Corona Del Mar standards. It was our first time here, despite living nearby. Definitely we will return!
