    Is it pricey? Yes. Is it noisy? Yes. Is it worth it? Definitely yes. If you just want a steak and old fashioned, there are more economical options even within a few blocks. Fioretta is about the show. The food is amazing, even the broccoli drew raves. Service was impressive as well. It's one of the few places who will still make Caesar salads tableside. The steaks are pure showmanship. The non-steak options are excellent as well. They were able to accommodate a number of dietary restrictions without any issues and still deliver delicious meals and cocktails to everyone present. Highly recommended for special events or when you want to make a big impression.
