Beverly Hills Today sasy:

The light, clean style of Il Forno, a high-tech, no-nonsense trattoria-type cafe and pizzeria has become a very popular place for serious eaters of authentic Italian food. I can only compare it with some of the wonderful food I found while poking around in the small towns of Northern Italy.

The seasonings are bold, and chef Domenico Salvatore doesn't copy or compromise his gutsy Italian flair for trendiness. While his pizza menu is dramatically extended to include caviar toppings and other exciting tastes, he has not excluded the dieter who can order the spa pizza made with lo-fat cheeses, fresh tomatoes, olives, capers, mushrooms, eggplant and other assorted vegetables in season. In fact, they are so tasty, l don't know why anyone would want the high-calorie, high-cholesterol kind. His fresh pie-shaped breads are baked all day, and served hot out of the pizza ovens.
