I've never been to Forno, and don't plan on it.  They are in no way a snooty, upscale restaurant.   The menu is pedestrian "Italian " food.

First of all, thanks for the comment, I'm not sure anyone reads my...err, stuff.

In one of my earliest posts, about 3 years ago, I defined "a joint".  It goes back to my youth in the 60's.  A joint is like Difara in Brooklyn.  It's a brick structure, with a center door, with store-front windows on either side.  Inside there's the owners, their oven, with a few tables, and a Coke sign!

In my mind's eye, when I don't see that, it's "up-scale".
