Food:[1] • Service:[1] • Atmosphere:[7]

  • Artificial fireplace was good.
  • Bad parking, making you wait for 2 hours even though you have a reservation. What's the point of having a reservation if they will make you wait for 2 hours!

“We had worst experience at Fornos ( located at Newark, NJ) ! Even though we made a previous reservation for a 7pm dinner, we waited for 2 hours and had no choice but to walk out of the restaurant. The receptionist did not even bother to give us any estimate on how long we would still have to wait. They do not care about their customers! They continued to accept customers even though they knew the place was already packed and lots of people were already waiting for tables and didn't care if the customers were complaining.”

  • Easily accessible by mass transit.
  • Have never driven to this restaurant.

“Best food experience Ive had. Expert waits staff willing to cater to your every whim, but respects privacy. Relaxing atmosphere with time to linger - no sense of time here. Plenty of scrumptious food. Prepare to take leftovers home. Just come in and sit down; in a few moments, delicious food begins to appear.”

  • Food good.
  • Parking lot not trustworthy. Walk or take a cab.

“Food good, bad location. Don't trust parking lot. If you want to enjoy a good meal while vandals break into your car, this is the place to dine.”

  • The TV in the lounge works.
  • After 2 hours and 15 minutes of waiting we left, hungry.

“We heard great things about this restaurant so we decided to head out and try it. I figured an hour wait was typical at 815 on a Saturday night so we sat at the bar and happily drank some sangria. Then ten o'clock hit. And then 1015.and then 1030.there was still 8 couples waiting for a table in front of us. We kept our spirits in it for 2 hours because once you've waited 90 minutes you feel obligated to wait it out. But after 2 hours and 15 minutes with no table in sight we walked across the street to the comparable Iberia. We ate voraciously and felt let down by the whole situation. If the wait is ridiculous, say so, don't tell me about an hour. Never eaten there, don't plan on eating there either.”

  • The food is full of flavor- customer service incomparable.
  • Dinning room a little crowded- not very kid friendly.

“A must see! The food is delicious, the portions are generous and the wait staff does not believe in keeping you waiting. A quaint little restaurant that offers a little taste of Spain!”

  • Excellent food and service.
  • Overpriced cocktails.

“Our party of four had a fantastic experience. Harry visiting from LA, Rosary from Long Island, my wife, Charlye, and I from Medford. Harry, Rosary and Charlye had various fish dinners. I had the spinach, tomato, mushroom sauce covered veal chops. Charlye had Snapper Francaise, an ultra fresh fish with a seasoned flour coating. Rosary, stuffed salmon, Harry, fresh salmon. All were excellent. Dinner is served with family style salad, rice and hot bread. Also included was a plate of little, round tostito-like disks. The bill came to $130 before tip, quite reasonable for the above servings plus an overpriced call brand cocktail ($10.50), a glass of house wine ($5.00), a cup of coffee and two deserts (each served with two spoons). The wait staff was friendly and efficient, keeping the table clean, the water glasses full, and catering to our ever need. Harry, from California, wondered out loud if Fono caters parties. ”
