Started with some great homemade bread, house whipped ricotta and olive oil and herb marinated tomatoes.
Grandma's meatballs were tasty, a bite of spicy (now thatsa some spicy meatball), and loved by my Barb who seldom orders meat.
The octopus was nicely braised and tender.
Poached egg, Sausage, Orange cream and Comsume. Need I say more?
Ricotta Gnocculli with crab , pistachios, creamy tomato sauce. Light and plentiful.
I recommend leaving a few to take home.
Tortellini filled with roasted squash, toasted seeds and sage brown butter.
Barb's vegetarian entree: Tomato braised eggplant, crispy bread and ricotta cheese.
Cindy's short ribs, braised with tomatoes. (And I forgot what else.)
Pork loin with mushroom cream over Polenta cake. To die for.
Dessert course included an awesome flourless chocolate torte, creme Anglaise, tiramisu and gelato.
The portions here are generous. There's a tendency to fill up on the bread with ricotta...don't do it. And pace yourself. Feel free to not finish a dish, but take home whatever u don't eat.
Service has been just perfect both times we went to Forcella. It's exceptionally good, so bring your good wines and feel free to share some with the chef. When he has time he comes out to check on you and is extremely interesting.
I highly recommend this restaurant.
