We stopped for dinner here one evening and encountered the fastest service we experienced anywhere on the island. A menu with a lot of pizza offerings and some other Italian dishes, and where it is easy to find vegetarian options. The garlic bread was nothing special but both pizzas we ordered were quite good. Clean restrooms, nice outdoor covered seating,... More

We visited for dinner and it was ok- nothing great. We ordered pizzas and salads. I thought the dressing on the Il Forno salad was a little sweet. The pizzas were smaller than I expected, but they were tasty. Our teenagers seemed to enjoy it.

The waiter brought the starter and the main course together. Not funny to see the main course getting cold while eating the starter. He also forgot to bring the wine to the food and when trying to get contact with the servants we had to wait until all the new guests were served before we got help. Then we already... More

As a vegetarian, finding something interesting as well as not too heavy is always a challenge. This sweet little cafe has some authentic Italian food - we had bruschetta (very good), melanzane alla parmigiana (very juicy and well flavored) and Quattro stagione pizza (crispy crust and good toppings). The service was super friendly and brisk. The prices were quite reasonable.... More

Nice thin bottom Pizzas and teasty, friendly staff. However, the place is next to a rather bussy street.

We stopped to eat at the Il Forno in the Jan Thiel area and found it wanting. The Spaghetti sauce is way too sweet for my taste and the service was slow.

Good pizza. Eggplant parm wasn't great. Service slow but cute outdoor cafe area in a decent section.Pizza is very thin so be sure to order enough! Saw that they had great tiramisu but they didn't have any when we were there.

We ate here on our first night in Curacao and I wasn't really sure what to expect. We got a table outside and the restaurant was fairly busy. The seating was a little uncomfortablle. We both had different bruschettas to start which were a little strange coming as they did on some very thick dutch style milk bread. I then... More
