At Al Forno, we’ve been lucky to serve thousands of happy guests, and with nearly a thousand glowing Google reviews, we’re proud to be considered one of Auckland’s favourite Italian restaurants!
Our food is all about fresh, bold flavours. We stay true to the heart of Italian cooking while adding a few modern twists of our own. If you love generous portions, you’ll feel right at home here, our pastas and pizzas are known to steal the show!
We’ve created a space that feels cosy and familiar, think rustic Italian charm, warm lighting, and landscapes on the walls that’ll transport you straight to Tuscany. Our dining room seats up to 20, making it perfect for intimate dinners, birthdays, or small group celebrations.
Italian food is our passion from woodfired pizzas to handmade pastas, everything we serve is a tribute to tradition, family, and flavour.
We’re fully licensed too, with a carefully curated list of cocktails and wines from Italy, New Zealand, and Australia perfect for a toast (or two).
Just 15 minutes from the heart of Auckland, Al Forno is a little slice of Italy right here in Takapuna. We’d love to host your next dinner, celebration, or catch up!
