Description: Located just five blocks east of Temple Square, this casual Italian eatery does a bustling business at lunch but is more quiet and sedate at dinner. The interior is cozy and intimate, sporting comfortable booths and surprisingly modern accents. Whether in the company of a large group, or a couple in search of a romantic evening, you are certain to feel at home here.

If you really want to sample Al Forno's at its best, the pasta presentations are highly recommended: Linguini Tuttomare, clams, scallops, prawns, and calamari garnished with sun-dried tomatoes and herbs; Fettuccini Carciofo, sautéed chicken strips and artichoke hearts in an Asiago cream sauce; Lasagna al Forno, layered pasta with beef, four kinds of cheese, and a luscious homemade tomato sauce; Ravioli al Peperoni, ravioli, sweet roasted peppers, and sun-dried tomatoes in a light and delicate tomato sauce.

If you are in search of quality Italian fare served up in a most convivial atmosphere at exceedingly reasonable prices, you will find Al Forno's Ristorante difficult to beat. -The Artful Diner
