Enjoyed Foretti's... solid Italian with nightly specials. Consistent and very good. Have been there many times and will continue to go back. Pasta's are good and homemade... full bar which is nice. Picture is of the Braised Short Rib Pappardelle... which was delicious! The pizza's are from a real wood burning pizza oven. The service is good... very attentive! The one lacking thing for 4 stars is the wine list... we brought our own... but ordered a second bottle and they had a limited selection.

Great atmosphere with a New York vibe. Cesar salad was amazing, pasta was fresh and good. We enjoyed the wine and the service. Expect $30 on avg per entree.

Love Foretti. The wait staff couldn’t be nicer and the food is fantastic. Actually, their pizza is the best in OC. The food quality stands alone. Their ingredients are from Italy and the cooks are tremendous. Highly recommended.

A little Italian restaurant located on pch. Parking is minimal. They have a small parking lot with maybe 6 spaces. If it's full, you'll need to find street parking.The food is good. The service is a little rough.

Fabulous food! Wonderful wine! Wonderful service from our waiter! Only slight negative is tight quarters when seated at high top table and people constantly walking by since can't walk in between two long tables. Minor / it's a fabulous place! Heartily recommend !

Food is excellent here. We've had Robert as our waiter and the service was excellent. Seating on some of the tables can be pretty tight as the restaurant is small in some places but the food and service makes up for it. Pizza and calamari is great as are the many pasta dishes we have tried. Can't wait to go again.

Food was very good. The server was outstanding. Everything was very nice except we sat outside and the space for the amount of tables and chairs is way way too tight. Too tight could not move around the server had a difficult time getting between tables I wish they'd remove a tables and give everybody more room.

The restaurant is small so definitely make reservations if possible. It is right on PCH so the road noise can be heard from the restaurant if seated by the windows. The food is great and the atmosphere is nice and fun. I highly recommend this Italian Restaurant but please make a reservation if dining out on the weekend.

Went for dinner for Valentines Day. Food was Great! Didn't get to experience the ambiance of restaurant, we were seated in a side tent room, guessing it was for over flow for Valentine's.

we brought out-of-town guest to dinner. They were impressed with the food. In particular they raved about the meatball. Our server Monica was charming and attentive. One of our favorite restaurants.

Overall, not a bad experience. Our server was very attentive which was appreciated. I've driven by and it's always busy so decided to try it out. We arrived before our reservation and were accommodated early which was appreciated. Had Martini's..not bad...had the Insalate De Mar which was really good....Octopus, Calamari and Shrimp mixed with Arugula and a light dressing...this was great. We ordered the 50/50 (Pappardelle with Sausage and Beef Sauce) and Gnocchi. Both were just okay....fresh homemade pasta is delicious but if the sauces aren't your thing...well the dish will be ordinary and that was our case.
