We did not choose to put the tip, as the service was not good, but for our surprise an amount was debited in addition to the account amount, that is, they included the tip. So bad!

The best part about Ristorante Fiore is their willingness to let 4 friends come in at 9:30 on a Sunday night and let us stay until 11:00. Our waiter was very nice and told us to stay as long as we needed and there was no rush. The food was good but I have had better from the area. The interior is quite dated and the restaurant doesn't have the intimacy of other restaurants. If I had a family this is where I would go for sure. There is enough space between the tables that you are not on top of each other and the whole vibe seems more family oriented.

Was pleasantly surprised at how good this restaurant was. Went for lunch on Sunday and, while a lot of other restaurants in the area were packed, this one was quiet (though it filled up later). It made me wonder why--but--no need to worry! The lobster ravioli and gnocchi my friends had was delicious, but I was super impressed with the Spaghetti alle Cozze. Really good mussels, a wonderful spicy tomato sauce and homemade spaghetti. Recommended.

The server seemed new but got through the specials alright but then disappeared after she took our order but got appetizer drinks. She did ask how our main course food was, however. The wine for the main course arrived early but at least I guess we didn't have to wait for it with our meal. She never returned after that except to give us the check and not sure where she was. We were on the second floor. The separate checks were not accurate and had to be changed so perhaps writing the orders down would be better in the future. The best part was the Bombolotti lobster pasta which was delicious. But the lack of service, when we arrived in an empty second floor, was odd and removing the olive oil for the still on the table bread as well.

The service was good but I can’t say the same for some of the food. It was well presented but just the taste just wasn’t there. For what it’s priced at I was expecting much more.

I wish I had never found this place on OpenTable. I could say plenty of negative things if I wanted to. They'd all be accurate. Paint your walls if you care though (Sat night rush). Words are wind.

Food was good, not exceptional. The Swordfish and chicken saltimbocca were very good despite the swordfish being overcooked. The lobster ravioli was not good; it didn't have much lobster flavor and the pasta for the ravioli had the bite of a frozen pasta (thick, heavy). The best aspect of the night was our waiter who made sure we were well cared for and satisfied; a big thank you to him, a real professional.

We sat outside in the side area and had salads and entrees. Chicken parm was delicious and perfect serving amount for dinner. Got a bit chilly by 6 pm and would need some heat lamps on after that. Up to that point it was very pleasant. Waitstaff fun, attentive, and friendly.

The food is good. For the north end about what I’d expect. The problem is the service. We ordered a fig and goat cheese pizza. We got a burratA pizza instead. The waiter said”I’ll bring you some fig jam. That is NOT the same. Then he took away the mistake pizza. why not give it to us for the inconvenience of his mistake? Manager did not seem interested in hearing about it. Very poor service

Oh my goodness! Our first clue should have been the bread. It was super dry and flavorless. Like they were one step less dry than croutons. The salume i farmaggi was ok but way too expensive for the cold cuts and jarred pickled vegetables we received. Thankfully, no more bread was delivered! Lastly, we got our entrees: the worst bolognese I’ve ever had with perfectly cooked but completely bland noodles. How I could taste it under the burnt bolognese I will never know. My husband had the chicken parmesan. Have you ever had a chicken Parmesan and still felt hungry afterwards? He did. There were twelve noodles on his plate. These were covered with a very bland tomato sauce. Lying next to this, was a technically perfect but lack luster piece of chicken. To be fair, the wine was very good. Now to our poor server. He was very sweet but completely un knowledgeable. I asked what he suggested would go well with our meal and he said, “Oh well a merlot is good, people seem to like it!” There was no merlot on the menu (good thing too because I’m not a huge fan.” I ended up ordering a Sangiovese/Cabernet blend. He can back five minutes after we ordered with the wine menu. I thought he was going to tell me they were out. They were not out. He had forgotten what wine it was. No big deal, they have a long list of reds. But, no he was pointing at the whites asking if I had ordered the cupcake white. I turned the page and pointed out the correct one. When he came back, he didn’t show us the bottle so we had to trust it was the correct one and watched as he incorrectly and awkwardly opened the bottle. In short, my friends we had found ourselves in an Italian turn and burn. We almost always order dessert, but decided against it since the rest was so bad. Don’t waste your money here.

Homemade pasta is wonderful—be sure to include some in your dinner selection. My husband had vongole with pasta alla chittara; I had a chicken-broccoli dish with homemade rotini—both delicious. Friendly service and warm ambiance! Not our first experience here; we love it and will be back!

High top seating in the outdoor patio was comfortable and clean, attentive server, great food and drinks. Have enjoyed dinner at Fiore, but have to say the lunch menu was very good. Really enjoyed the prosciutto and fig jam pizza! Good value, 3 of us all with a meal & drink, the bill total was very reasonable.
