Forma - CIVITAVECCHIA

It's been a long time since I wanted to come to this restaurant and we ate well beyond my expectations. Young chef in good shape sees that there is a lot of passion. Creative dishes other than other restaurants. Antipasto tuna tartar with fondue and soft egg and ikura. Pasta with sea urchins and paprika. Spaghetti with butter and oysters.... Spectacular pork belly! Sweets no longer have the balls, homemade bread so good I've never eaten before. Congratulations to the chef!!!

Great atmosphere and great service (minus wine understanding). The issue we had here was expectations and so maybe the issue is ours alone. We've been to Michelin rated restaurants (ranging from a mention to 3 stars). The food at Forma was very good, but just not at the level similar to previous rated restaurants we've been to before. That being said, the bill was 1/5 what we have paid before (1/15 in the case of Alinea) although it did cost $5k to get to Italy). Everything we had was with truffles and our expectation was the normal bold and delicious black/white truffle flavor. In this case they were present, there was A LOT of them, but that distinctive flavor was not there. It's likely that there's a difference between what we're used to and what this was and we'll accept that as immaturity. Nonetheless, I would recommend Forma, just with minor reservations (don't ask for wine advice)

Our dinner at Forma was wonderful! The food surpassed our expectations…love the modern interpretations of the classics.

Wonderful ambiance, excellent traditional Italian food with a nouvelle cuisine flair, very attentive service!

Best restaurant by far x quality. Congratulations
