Disappointed. Food was nothing special. Plating was very ordinary; white pasta on a white plate? How about a dusting of parsley at least? Portions small. 20% tip added to the bill automatically on dinner for 2. With so many choices close by, we probably could have done better.

Everything was up to my expectations. I was surprised that on a Sunday evening that there were not more people eating at the place. I think they have to advertise more so people know they are there.

Excellent dining in an intimate setting with an extraordinarily welcoming family owners. A rare find where the commitment is to the very best preparation of Italian cuisine.

Fabulous homemade food! This friendly, family owned business, is one of the best restaurants on Key Biscayne! The food is fresh, homemade and very high quality. The staff is friendly and very attentive. I highly recommend Forchetta to anyone looking for a great meal. Well worth the price.

Once again, a lovely dinner! The commitment of this family owned restaurant to the highest quality and preparation of dishes. The truffled spaghetti had real truffles, not truffle oil. It is well worth the price whether for a family dinner or a Wednesday night meal.

I had the worst Risotto I have ever had at this place. I had dinner with a friend who had the lobster ravioli, which were not as bad. It was a Monday and maybe they had to reheat food. Service was very good but food was not.

Food and service was very good but not exceptional or fine Italian dining. There was no ambiance. The restaurant is a storefront. The patio outside dining is just the second floor of the strip mall overlooking the parking lot. Only three choices for wine by the glass ranging from 14-16 dollars. Cheapest bottle wine was $60. Automatically added 20% tip when bill came so be sure not to overtip. Much better restaurants on Key Biscayne and the mainland. Not really worth the drive.
I had the pleasure of dining at Restaurante Forchetta in Key Biscayne, and it was a delightful experience. The family's German-Italian background is evident in their outstanding cuisine. The Italian main dishes were exceptional, and the strudel for dessert was the perfect sweet ending to the meal. The service was not only fast but incredibly friendly, making me feel right at home. The ambience both inside and outside was fantastic, offering a comfortable and inviting atmosphere. I highly recommend Forchetta for a fantastic dining experience with a unique blend of German and Italian flavors.

Fantastic Italian dining experience. The food was absolutely delicious. My wife and I were on the hunt for an authentic Italian meal and we got it. Tremendous food...one of Key Biscayne's best!

Completely empty at 8:30 PM on a Saturday, and I'm not sure why. The food was very good, the portions not large. None of the seafood is local, but our server thought that was generally the case in the Miami area. The outdoor seating, as with the other restaurants in this strip mall which were very busy, is adjacent to the parking lot but decorated with plants which block some of the view of the automobiles.
Overpriced, small portions and mediocre food.
