Editorial Review for Il Fornaio – by Erin Chambers

In Short
Tall ceilings and warm aromas from the open kitchen characterize the rustic space as soon as you enter the front door. Make your way into the main dining room, and the stunning view of the skyline cannot be overstated. Despite a bustling, exhibition kitchen--chicken on rotisseries, sizzling garlic--the atmosphere remains quiet, candle-lit and romantic. An elaborate bread basket is plenty to tide you over until one of the many, hearty, traditional italian entrees arrive.

Insider Tips

Look Good

It's casual, but it's also Coronado. Short sleeves are fine, but flip flops are not.

When to Go

It's worth restating: The views at sunset are insane.

The Extras

Check out the housemade Italian sweets at the pastry counter at the front near the hostess station.

Editor's Review

The menu is straight from Italy, but the waterfront views of San Diego's skyline are as California as they come.  See the full editorial review.
