About Forza
On Grange Rd in Wirral, Forza is a restaurant built around a brick oven with an open kitchen, so diners can watch pizzas being cooked. Any pizza can be made vegan, with vegan cheese offered as an option, and pasta runs alongside the pizza menu. The wine list draws from Italy and France, including a Grillo and a Chardonnay from Sicily, a Sauvignon Blanc from Treveneze, and a Merlot from Trento. Tiramisu, made in house, closes out the dessert side. The restaurant operates on a walk-in basis, with no reservations, and opens evenings only, Tuesday through Sunday, closed on Mondays. Across 46 dishes the menu keeps a fairly broad Italian range. Dogs are welcome inside, and staff bring over a water bowl for them.

Customer Review Summary
Pizza cooked fresh in the open kitchen draws consistent praise, with reviewers noting quality ingredients and, for one vegan diner, a pleasant surprise at the vegan cheese option. Pasta also gets a mention as very nice. Service is called attentive, though one reviewer waited too long for starters and another found the tiramisu dry. One dog-friendly visit stood out for a doggy water bowl offered by staff.

“Gorgeous food! The open kitchen concept is so cool, loved watching our pizzas being made in real time! Very cute place, was very quiet for a Sunday evening - deserves a visit if you’re nearby.”

“Amazing pizza. The pizza was cooked fresh in front of us and was delicious. You could tell that good quality, fresh ingredients had been used. We have vegan pizzas and were very impressed by the vegan cheese, as well as the kitchen's flexibility in adding toppings to pizzas. The service was extremely attentive and helpful. The atmosphere was inviting and comfortable. Note - I would just ask that you make it clearer on your menu that you do have vegan cheese. I know there is a note saying any pizza can be made vegan, but we initially took this as meaning that you would just take the cheese off the pizza and not replace it with vegan cheese. Initially this put us off visiting, but we were very pleasantly surprised when we visited and found that you did in fact have vegan cheese!”

“We have eaten at Forza a few times; the pizza is excellent. Very good service too and yesterday it was no exception. The chef is visibly working very hard to deliver very nice,freshly prepared and well presented food ( I also had pasta once and it was very nice) . Only slight area for improvement is we did have to wait a little too long for our starters ( which were lovely by the way) but the place was quite busy to be fair.”
