Customer's reviews
I recently visited Forli of Balmain with a friend and had a wonderful dining experience. The food was delicious, and what truly stood out was the exceptional customer service.
A special mention to the tall gentleman with the ponytail, who was incredibly humble, friendly, and welcoming throughout our visit. The lady on the team was also attentive and provided excellent service, making us feel comfortable and well looked after.
The combination of great food, warm hospitality, and outstanding service made our experience memorable. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for authentic Italian cuisine and a welcoming atmosphere.

We were visiting my mother in law at Balmain Hospital so looked for a local Italian restaurant, we were very glad we found Forli!
The service was impeccable, Abbie our waitress was very attentive and took our order with drinks for the 5 of us and committing the entire order to memory.
The bruschetta was very tasty and fresh as were the meatballs. My wife had the Linguine Marina which was devine, it had so much seafood, very generous servings indeed.
3 of us had the Schnitzel platter which is a new addition to their menu. This was fantastic value for $40. It came with garlic bread, meatballs, 3 different Schnitzels, gelato and a choice of beer, wine or softdrink. The Schnitzels were really tasty and tender, will definitely go for this again.
We all had a really enjoyable dinner and will be back again.

The food was delicious, friendly and attentive service.
My friend and I decided to try this restaurant on 2/4/26 and it didnt disappoint. We had the garlic prawns, burrata salad, veal funghi, seafood risotto, and coffee. Everything was delicious, and the service was very attentive and friendly. What was even more impressive was that the waiter at the bar remembered what was included in my friend’s second takeaway coffee order. Excellent service makes the food even more enjoyable.
I will try out the pastas and pizzas next time. Most tables were eating these dishes and they are a descent portion and looking good 😋
Thank you
