   Overpriced for the quality. But you can probably say that about every restaurant post-Covid. The restaurant has poor sound absorption so it is very noisy.

   Food was a long wait. Pizza tasted alright but doesn't worth an hour of wait time. The service was good.

   The atmosphere is nice and overall good food. The mushroom gnocchi was delicious but the other plates didn’t blow me out of the water. At times, I felt the server was rushing us. They definitely needed another server in there as it was busy and I could tell he was in over his head a bit. I work in the industry, so I do notice these things. He still provided friendly service. I had also put in my reservation notes as well as told them over the phone that it was my friend’s birthday, but there was no acknowledgment of this, even just a “Happy Birthday”, so this was disappointing. Overall we still had a good time.

   Came here to celebrate NYE and they had a set menu for 70 bucks. Staff were great but the set menu was underwhelming. The appetiser trio with cold cuts, salmon paste and shrimp salad in a cheese shaped cup - would be my least favourite. There was no need for over the top presentation and was clumsy to eat as could not cut through. The shrimp seems like it was dressed in thousand island dressing as it tasted like it even though I heard the waitress mentioned it was made in house. The main pastas was good. The meatloaf with egg was a bit strange and to use felt like we could make this ourselves at home and same with the panettone bread dessert with chocolate drizzle and side of ice cream. Again I could make this at home. We probably won’t be returning

    Haven't been back since pre-Covid! At our table of 4: Calamari, ravioli, & salmon/seafood was excellent. Risotto was ?? - soupy, not creamy or like any risotto we've ever had. It's a small neighbourhood restaurant, but suggestions: Mains need to come with some vegetables, or have a wider selection of the side dish veggies. And what happened to at least an offer of bread, foccacia, or?

    Never seen gnocchi made this way in any Italian restaurant. The shape they made the gnocchi it reminded me of Tteok-bokki. The cream sauce was delicious but not the gnocchi. Only our calamari was delicious but could have used more seasoning. When we walked in it was empty but they seated us right next to the door in an empty restaurant. We asked to be seated more inside since it is pretty cold and the restaurant is empty.

    Went to La Forchetta for my birthday dinner with hubby. Chose it for the great variety in the menu and good reviews. The waiter was lovely, picked out a delicious mocktail for me. Appreciated the soft bread with olive oil/balsamic. Arinchini (risotto balls) were bigger than expected but SO delicious. Marinara sauce normally gives me heartburn but this was smooth and not tangy at all! Husband really enjoyed his Pappardelle for dinner. The filling in my spinach ravioli was not as cheesy as I expected (almost like watery ground spinach?) but the sauce and soft pasta were good. They ran out of passion fruit for the panna cotta but the raspberry was also yummy. Ambience wise, was quite loud but nice that everyone was having a good time and restaurant was full . There was some interesting Italian pop music playing as well which we could hear after others left. Will likely be coming back soon to try their new menu items when they are out as well!

    10 min before any server came to our table, 40 min before drink order came out. Place looks and feels more like a cafeteria then an Italian joint charging 30+ a plate.

    It was our first time, and we spent a very good moment. Good attention, excellent food, nice and clean place. Very recommendable. A little more quantity of food in every plate and not change in the first piece of bread could be ideal. Anyway, it is an amazing restaurant.

    I had a fantastic dinner with friends at La Forchetta in Burnaby Heights. I brought 2 bottles of Italian Chianti Classico Gran Selezione. One is Ruffino Chianti Classico Riserva Ducale Oro Gran Selezione 2017 and the other Carpineto Grandi Vini di Toscana Chianti Classico Gran Selezione 2015. Both are excellent wines. The Ruffino was a little bit higher in acidity and the Carpenito a bit richer and rounder on the palate. Both wines went very well with our shared dishes: - Calamari - Antipasto - Casarecce al duck (casarecce pasta in a duck ragu) - Capricciosa pizza (tomato sauce, mozzarella, mushrooms, black olives, artichokes, and prosciutto cotto) The pasta had such a nice rich sauce, I think it was the best pairing with both wines, with the pizza coming in a close second. Give these wines a try as well as visit this restaurant in Burnaby Heights. Grazie to Chef Manrico for such excellent dishes and to our Portuguese server who looked after us so well. Obrigado.

    Food all tasted good but the portions were small for the cost. Appetizers were smaller than happy hour versions and pasta was not enough to share between 2 people. Us ladies don’t eat that much.
