Il Forno is a bustling, authentic Italian restaurant in the heart of Nicosia, right on the pedestrian Ledra Street. Diners praise its extensive menu of pasta and pizza, with generous portions that regularly prove too much to finish. The pasta arrives cooked al dente in a wide choice of rich red or creamy white sauces, and guests can even customise their pasta type, while the thin, crispy, well-charred pizzas draw repeat visitors.

Warm hospitality and quick, attentive service are recurring highlights across reviews, making it a favourite for casual meals, family gatherings and get-togethers with friends. The central location keeps it lively, so you may wait ten to fifteen minutes for a table at peak times, but seats turn over quickly. Prices sit at a comfortable mid-range, and many feel the quality of food and service is well worth it.

Open daily from noon to 11pm, Il Forno is an easy, satisfying choice for anyone craving Italian classics in central Nicosia.
