Buona Forchetta has proudly opened its seventh location in Peninsula Village of Newport Beach, offering a delightful blend of authentic Italian cuisine and a welcoming atmosphere. Renowned for its hand-crafted pizzas made in traditional wood-fired ovens and the use of fresh, high-quality ingredients, this new spot continues the Buona Forchetta tradition of genuine Italian dining.
Guests can look forward to a great experience, with every dish made from traditional recipes, including house-made pasta and artisanal pizza that bring a taste of Italy.
