Great experience at Il Fornaio Santa Clara. The food was very good and service was excellent. We got seated and served right away. The ambiance was good - nice decor and lighting. One thing to note, the parking at this plaza is insanely difficult so make sure you have ample time to find a spot.

As soon as I walked in, I was greeted with a warm smile and a wonderful table. Our server made sure we were happy with everything that was served. We both had the lasagna and a salad. It was delicious to the last bite. I love Il Fornaio! I’ve been coming here for years and never intend to stop

This was our first time dining at Cucina Venti, and it won't be our last! The atmosphere was warm and friendly (except for the cool breeze blowing through). The service was excellent, and the two items we ordered were both quite delicious. We didn't dare try the outdoor seating (which appears to be even larger than the indoor seating), as it was rather cold out this time of year, but we would definitely try sitting outdoors during warmer weather.
