    I’ve been to Forma before and was excited to share the experience with a good friend of mine last night. She had never been and loved the place.

    Showed up for an early dinner and the bar was popping. The dining room was empty but filled up quickly and was packed by the end of our meal. Great spot to try out different cheese and drink wine.

    Forma Restaurant does not disappoint. It offers a full range of Northern Italian cuisine. On several visits my guests and I have sampled most of the menu. We have not ordered anything that we did not like.

    Froma is one of the best Italian Restaurants on the Westside. Thy serve authentic homemade Italian pasta. Their signature dishes are the pastas tossed inside a giant cheese wheel. Its the ultimate creamy entree. Personally, it is best to share that because it is a lot of cheese to eat yourself! Share the pasta and order a soup, and/or a salad, or a grilled fish. The seating is tight, but so worth it!
