In November of 2008, Il Fornaio opened our second Canaletto location in Newport Beach at the Fashion Island Center. For almost 14 years, we have been a proud partner in the community as we strove to provide the most authentic Italian dining experience outside of Italy.
Unfortunately, as of Sunday, May 15, 2022, we will be closing our doors. With the Irvine Company choosing to move in a different direction, we are not able to stay at the Fashion Island location.
We have enjoyed many wonderful moments in Newport Beach and, throughout the years, have developed a loyal guest base who we know are going to be as sad to see us leave as we are to be leaving.
We hope that when you are near any of our locations in Southern California (Il Fornaio Irvine is close!), Northern California, or Las Vegas, you will visit us once again to experience the most authentic Italian dining experience outside of Italy.
Grazie Mille Newport Beach! 🍝
