Love the cozy, intimate atmosphere. A real gem of a restaurant in the heart of Jenkintown. And the food - wow, just Wow! Wonderfully creative cuisine, warmly presented by folks who really care about making their guests feel welcome. Highly recommended!!

Would give it 6 stars if I could! Super cozy ambience - love it for an intimate night out. The chef/co-owner Ester is as sweet as her food is amazing! I also love how she supports local Mom-owned businesses ("Mom-trepreneurs") by hosting promotional event nights!

Surprisingly small but still very nice. Service was on point by owner. Very original menu everything we ate was better then one would have expected from such a small place.

I simply cannot recommend this place enough. I have both dined at the restaurant itself as well as have had the privilege of experiencing their catered food menu. It truly is amazing. It's a rare thing for local restaurants to have high quality, personality, and attentiveness that Forcella BYOB brings. The wonderful thing about this restaurant is that their menu is constantly evolving. I'm excited to visit this place again in the near future. A restaurant you must visit!!

this hidden gem on the main street and jenkintown is fantastic. It's a husband and wife cooking team. The wife cooks and the husband runs the front of the house. They changed the menu based on what they get and what they're in the mood to cook. The food is always out standing in the service is great. The owners like to come out at night and talk with customers especially when it's low down. It is a BYOB and one not to miss in the jenkintown area

From the first moment you arrive in that restaurant the stuff gives you an agreeable feeling. Very comfortable stuff, it is a good restaurant to to go out with your friends or with your date. Excellent cuisine, experienced chef, modest pay and generous service. Highly recommended.

My wife and I just had dinner tonight at Forcella. Food was the best IÒ€ℒve had there and all of my meals have been wonderful. Esther, the chef, and her husband Bruce are the nicest, most genuine people you could meet. I cannot wait to go back again soon! Highly recommended! People whoÒ€ℒve given less than five stars are looking for gigantic portions which you wonÒ€ℒt find here. Everything is on point. Amazing food, awesome people!

Amazing meal with outstanding service. Enjoyed a 2.5 hour experience with a variety of flavors to savor. Note: We were seated near the boorish couple that gave a 1 star review for Saturday 7-29. Owner was too courteous with them and comped their meal. They begrudgingly threw a twenty on the table and stomped out. Why order a 5 course meal and expect to finish up in 45 minutes? (their actual time there)

Good restaurant, the service was great, and also the food was very good as well. Girlfriend loved her entrees. The space is a little "cozy" though, and cash only.

I cannot recommend Forcella enough. I have been there a few times and have left both time in awe of the experience I had. Chef Esther and Bruce together create the perfect dinning experience. Ester know exactly what she is doing as she prepares meals to die for. Bruce is the epitome of what a host should be, you never feel rushed you feel as if you are dining with friends in their home. Whatever the occasion it will be even more special if you decide to dine with them.

Amazing... Menu did not appeal to me. I am a very Meat & Potatoes kind of person. But I was pleasently surprised with the flavors. If I could give it more than 5 stars, I would.
