Pizza & Sandwich
Near Me.
Wood-fired pizza and artisan panini sandwiches, all from the same 800-degree stone oven. One stop in Falls Church that does both right.
The Oven
800 degrees changes everything.
A regular oven tops out around 500. Ours hits 800. At that temperature, the crust blisters in minutes — leopard-spotted char on the outside, soft and airy inside. The cheese bubbles and caramelizes. The toppings roast instead of steam.
Each pizza goes into the stone oven by hand, gets rotated by hand, and comes out when it's right. That's what wood-fired means.

100% Halal Pizza & Sandwiches
Every single item at Forni is 100% Halal. Not a section. Not a special request. The entire kitchen — every protein, every sauce, every topping — meets strict Halal standards.
Order the All Meat pizza, the Gyro Panini, or any specialty pie with complete confidence. Families, mosques, and communities across Northern Virginia trust Forni because there is never a question about what's in the food.
The Dough
48 hours of slow fermentation
Our dough ferments for two full days before it touches the oven. The long, cold rise develops a complex, slightly tangy flavor with an open crumb structure you can't get from a shortcut. Hand-stretched to order — never rolled, never frozen.
Fired at 800 degrees
Intense heat blisters the crust in minutes. Leopard-spotted char outside, soft and airy inside. No conveyor belt — each pie is rotated by hand.

It does. Our paninis are pressed and finished in the same stone oven that bakes our pizzas. The intense heat gives the ciabatta a crisp exterior while keeping the fillings hot and melted throughout. It is a noticeable difference from a standard panini press.

Finding a restaurant that does both pizza and sandwiches well is harder than it sounds. Most pizza shops treat sandwiches as an afterthought, and most sandwich shops can not compete when it comes to a real oven-baked pie. Forni Pizza & Sandwich in Falls Church, Virginia, is built around the idea that both can be done at the highest level under one roof, and customers across Northern Virginia have been proving that theory right since we opened our doors.
The Stone Oven Difference
At the heart of Forni is a custom-built stone oven that reaches 800 degrees. This is the same oven that bakes our pizzas and finishes our panini sandwiches. For pizza, that intense heat means a crust with real character: leopard-spotted char on the bottom, soft and airy inside. The cheese bubbles and caramelizes. The toppings roast instead of steam.
For paninis, it means bread that turns golden and shatteringly crisp on the outside while the fillings melt and meld together inside. It is a quality you simply can not replicate with a standard panini press or a conventional oven.
Our Pizza Selection
Forni offers more than 10 signature pizzas, each hand-stretched from dough made fresh every morning. The Margherita keeps it simple with San Marzano-style tomato sauce, fresh mozzarella, basil, and a drizzle of olive oil. The Four Cheese layers mozzarella, ricotta, parmesan, and gorgonzola over a white sauce base for a rich, creamy result. The Mediterranean brings bold flavors with feta, olives, peppers, and eggplant. And for meat lovers, the All Meat loads pepperoni, sausage, and gyro over tomato sauce and mozzarella. Every pizza can be customized, and our Make Your Own option lets you build exactly what you want.
Artisan Panini Sandwiches
Our panini menu features three carefully crafted sandwiches, each served on fresh ciabatta and finished in the stone oven. The Gyro Panini is our most popular, with slow-roasted gyro meat, tomatoes, red onion, cucumber, and house-made tzatziki. The Pesto Chicken Panini pairs grilled chicken breast with house pesto, fresh basil, and melted mozzarella. The Steak & Cheese Panini features shaved steak with caramelized onions, roasted peppers, and melted provolone. These are not generic deli sandwiches. They are built with the same attention to quality ingredients that goes into every pizza we make.
Perfect for Groups and Families
One of the biggest advantages of a restaurant that serves both pizza and sandwiches is flexibility. When you are ordering for a group, not everyone wants the same thing. At Forni, the pizza fans can order a Pepperoni or Bianca, the sandwich crowd can go for the Steak & Cheese, the kids can get tenders and fries, and everyone can share a plate of French Fries or Garlic Bread. There is no negotiating, no compromises, and no need for a second stop. That versatility is a big part of why families and groups in Falls Church, Arlington, Tysons Corner, and McLean choose Forni again and again.
Sides, Salads, and Juices
A great meal at Forni goes beyond the main course. Start with our French Fries, golden and crispy, or share an order of Garlic Bread with garlic butter, herbs, and a golden crust. Our salads include the Goat Cheese and Spinach with roasted pine nuts and honey balsamic vinaigrette, the Caesar Salad with romaine hearts, garlic croutons, shaved parmesan, and house Caesar dressing, and the Heirloom Caprese with fresh burrata. Wash it all down with an Artisan Berry Smash or a Fresh Mango Breeze.
