Book NowAbout Italian Forchetta
Canning Vale regulars slip into Italian Forchetta for woodfired pies, heaped pasta bowls, and zero pretension. Dough spins overhead before hitting the blazing hearth—blistered crusts, generous toppings, and no skimped ingredients. Midweek crowds pack tables for pasta plates and carafes of wine, while family platters of eggplant parmigiana and carbonara keep long gatherings loud and lively. Catch the pizzaiolo working the peel, then linger over a slice of tiramisu or chilled limoncello panna cotta.
- Woodfired Pizza by the Hearth: Dough tossed in open view and baked directly over wood coals for blistered, airy crusts.
- Midweek Specials: Generous pasta deals on Wednesdays and pizza specials on Sundays keep weeknight dining easy.
- Easy Group Feasts: Ample family seating and accommodating service tailored for relaxed multi-generational dinners.
