Forno Bello Wood Fired Pizza & Italian Cuisine

We asked some locals for a dining recommendation after our plan A didn't work out. What two of the locals agreed on was to recommend Forno Bello for good Italian fare at a good price. One of them told us he only ever orders the appetizers there. So we stopped in to give it a try. We were very pleased. The place wasn't busy and we had a nice hostess that doubled as our waitress. We ordered bruschetta as an appetizer, followed by lasagne and a salmon salad. All were very good. The thing we liked best though was the amazing generous portion of bruschetta. It was superb and we remembered the advice of the person we met that said he only ever gets Forno Bello's appetizers. Very wise, but we were glad we got to try a couple other items too. Next time, Forno Bello will be our Plan A when we want

Forno Bello is a local Italian restaurant located in DeLand, FL. This restaurant is best known for their pizzas. The decor is sadly dated, and feels very out of touch and unpleasant. However, our service was pretty quick; and got our food out quickly. The food here is alright. The calamari is good, but it a bit tough to bite. The pizza is good; and has great Doug. I liked the flavor of wood fired pizza. Overall, would come here for the pizza.

Went in Sunday night! Best pizza around. And the service is always top notch! The minute you walk in you feel like family. Thank you Ashley. The pizzas are big and are definitely shareable. Bring your appetite!

I loved my pizza! My husband did not enjoy his meal. He ordered veal parmesan and the sauce tasted like Prego or Ragu and the veal was tough. Apparently they did not know how to cook it and couldn't take a few minutes to make sauce. It was a busy night and the place was loud and all the tables were full, but for the price, it wasn't worth it. Oh, the wings we got as an appetizer were good!

First off the wait staff is AMAZING. If you want severely under cooked pizza then this is the place for you. The first few times in the spring this year this was great! I came back to town in August and since then holy smokes it’s terrible the food. Again the wait staff is amazing!!!! They can’t do anything when the pizza. It’s terribly under cooked. They rush the food out. I hope it changes cause I really loved their pizza from back in the spring.
