About Al Forno - Shepherd's Bush
As one might expect from a place calling itself ‘oven-baked,’ Al Forno specialises in delicious Italian dishes fired in an authentic Italian stone oven. Of course this means that Al Forno – run by a group of chefs with training and years of experience in and around Naples, pizza’s Holy Land – offers some of the very best pizzas to be had in West London. The dough is made in-house each day, topped with 100% mozzarella and fresh plum-tomato sauce and blasted in the oven to create that iconic thin-but-foldable Neapolitan crust. This cosy and elegant Italian eatery in the heart of Shepherd’s Bush (at Romney Court on Shepherd’s Bush Green), though, is not just a pizzeria, and their range of signature oven-baked dishes (the lasagna is rich and moreish, and their penne-based pasta bakes are unique) is just as impressive as the pizza, not to mention the wealth of risottos, salads, hefty mains, dainty desserts and even satisfying breakfast meals.

Great pizzas, really good value for money as well. It's about a 5 minute walk from Shepherds Bush station so really easy to get to. Would definitely recommend if you're in the mood for Italian food.
The food was amazing as usual. Very friendly and helpful staff
Fabulous food, generous portions and reasonably priced. The drinks are also good value with a bottle of house white only eleven pounds. Would definitely recommend.
This place is well priced, staff are polite and the food is of solid quality. Have been twice and both times were a positive experience. Will definitely go again.
We visited Al Forno before going to a match at QPR and it was perfect for pre-match food. The choice was amazing from breakfasts, pizza and pasta to meat and fish main meals. The service was great and we both enjoyed the food. We would definitely go back.
A pleasant enough experience in the heart of Shepherds Bush. Traditional Italian menu with well prepared and adequate food. Obviously popular with locals which is always a good sign
Service was great and food tasty. The price is really reasonable, we can have a tasty meal on a budget. Ideal for people to do a shared meal.
A lovely restaurant with good English and Italian food. Friendly staff. It was our tenth visit and we will go again. Prices are middling. Not expensive.
Small simple restaurant. Food OK. Service OK. Good value too, but nothing special on the menu and in the dishes! Good when hungry, as no many other better places in the area.
Food very poor. Taste less, cold and bland. "Cocktail" tasted like fruit juice with barely any alcohol in it. Really disappointed with the food. The only saving grace was the waiter was nice and quite helpful. Sorry but I wouldn't go back here.
