Il Fornetto
2902 Emmons Avenue
Brooklyn, NY 11235

 (718) 332-8494

 Restaurant week in Brooklyn is a fantastic time to try out new restaurants. This year we choose Il Fornetto

 Il Fornetto has a beautiful location overlooking Sheepshead Bay, A big wall window allows you to watch the sailboats going by.

 For restaurant week, the restaurant, offered two prix fixe meals for $ 2010, consisting of soup or salad, pasta and dessert. While inexpensive, the food was not good. The soup was tasteless and my pasta dish, penne in eggplant sauce had dried pasta ends. The pasta had obviously been sitting too long.

 Truly unfortunate
