"Our waiter wasn't well rehearsed seemed very nervous. Told us that he didn't work for a while and just wasnt in the groove. Struggled to tell us specials, what was in tge soup, beers, couldn't remember the wine I ordered. Just not the type of service I was expecting given the moderate to expensive prices."

"I'm a regular visitor to Fiore, and for good reason. The food is consistently good, the service is outstanding. There's always some creative dishes on the menu and particularly amongst the specials, the wine list is superb. ...and this particular dinner on a Monday evening was one of the best. I think our dining experience lasted almost 4 hours, but that's just because we wanted a relaxing dinner, and since it was slow the staff did not rush us either."

"Our family of five gathered at Ristorante Fiore on a rainy Friday afternoon to celebrate a number of family occasions all at the same time: birthdays, Mothers and Fathers Day, academic acoomplishments, and new living arrangments. We chose this neighborhood so that we could all see our older daughter's new apartment in the North End of Boston, and chose this restaurant thanks to its fantastic online reviews. What a fortunate choice this was! We were greeted warmly, and served with grace and a friendly touch. Our family celebration was festive and heartwarming, despite the miserable weather happening outside! The food was delicious and served professionally. We'll certainly have to return to take advantage of their outdoor seating!"

"Fiore was too Americanized for the North End of Boston. We visited several other Italian restaurants in the area that had food, service and ambience that really felt Italian. Service here was rushed, the bar downstairs was like a cave, and our food was just average for the price. Also the house wine was from California not Italy??"

"My boyfriend and I were up in Boston for the weekend from New York, when looking for dinner options I reviewed several reviews for Fiore before choosing it as one of dinners up there. The food was excellent and being from New York and coming from an Italian family I'm hard to please. The calamari was very fresh and had a hint of spicy both in the sauce and peppers over them..
For dinner my boyfriend ordered the pasta seafood special, it was my first time trying Lobster it tasted like butter in fact I can't try it again!! I chose the gluten free penne in a white wine sauce which was also excellent. I would totally recommend Ristorante Fiore for anyone looking for a great meal."

"There are many options on where to eat in the North End of Boston, but Fiore's is one of the best, if not the "Best". I made a reservation for five, and we were seated on-time and the service was impeccable. We were offered the lunch special, which was delicious, and was just the right portion size. A few pitchers of red sangria for the table was a great compliment to the meal, and we all raved about the dining experience. We will definitely come back, and I would absolutely whole-heartedly recommend this restaurant to a friend."

"We were a group from out of town so it was a toss up where to go. We found it almost impossible to go wrong with any italian restaurant based on menu alone but fiore restaurant in the north end got amazing reviews so we thought we would try it. Oh my, the food and wine was outstanding! One of my dinner mates had the cavattapi with sausage in wine sauce and it was the star plate of the evening. No one was disappointed in their choice as it all was just outstanding. The highlight for me was the antipasti appetizer."

"Overall, I enjoyed my experience eating dinner last Friday. If you're looking for the typical North End experience, I would not recommend eating on the rooftop deck. Yes, you're outside which is usually awesome, but you also have to walk through a noisy/somewhat rowdy bar area before being seated. The dinner tables on the deck have zero view of the North End & are surrounded by a tall white fence. Due to the hustle & bustle of the deck, I felt as though the service wasn't as top notch as it would've been had we eaten inside. Our waiter was charming, but forgot the wine glasses after we waited 10 minutes for the bottle & no one was ontop of bussing plates. The food was outstanding. I'd certainly go back, but won't eat outside again."

"I thought the food was outstanding and well-priced. We were promptly seated after arriving on-time for our reservations.
I would say that our server, while attentive seemed a a bit cold though the other servers I saw in the dining room seemed much more engaged.
Will definitely be coming here again."

"We had a very nice dinner for my husband's 30th birthday. We decided to take advantage of the rooftop dining area. It was covered and warm on a chilly Boston night. Our waiter was friendly, quick, and attentive. The food was delicious. The only negative part of the evening was that the lights on the rooftop went out for a couple minutes... Two times. Other than that it was a great experience and will go back again."

"This is a great family owned Italian restaurant with great unique dishes.
I highly suggest the Bumbolati, not sure of the spelling, a homemade unique pasta with a lobster crème sauce! Outstanding!
very accommodating and valet parking is excellent.
I go at least once a year and will bring all I can to enjoy the experience!

"Very disappointed. Seating too close together thus was very noisy. Had hard time having a conversation with my wife at the same table. Food was so-so. My wife enjoed hers but I did not. Lettuce in the Caesar's Salad was too hard and too much core. Needs to be greener. I had the first item (pasta) on the menu IItalian name). Pasta too hard, sauce was not that good. The seafood was very hard and fishy tasting. Only 4 items on the dessert menu?? Coffee too stong or old. Waitress was okay but not too attentive. I think she had too many tables"

"We were seated immediately even though we were a little early for our reservation. We had the window table I requested when I booked. The waiter was charming, prompt, accomodating with special requests, and gave very good descriptions of the menu and selections. Our food was delicious and the courses were served at a nice pace. We were never kept waiting or rushed. I would highly recommend this fine Italian eatery.
thanks, csw

"The service we rec'd was excellent....in particular, Celeste at the bar and Olga in the dining room.
The food was very good, promptly served and tasty. The calamari breading needed a bit of spice as it was very bland. My veal and accompanying pasta was excellent as was the ravioli enjoyed by my companion. My wine glass was promptly refilled when needed. The pre-meal bread was stale....this was really the only significant negative of the evening. The dining room was quite full but we were still able to enjoy a pleasant conversation without needing to raise our voices."

"Great meal and excellant service - we were a large group and the staff was extremely attentive.
We visit Boston one to 2 times a year and make it a point to make it here.
The menu is excellent and the specials are even better.

"This was a special dining experience. Popular dishes like Caesar Salad had a unique and delicious flavor. The shellfish special had an amazingly abundant amount of fish in a wide variety, including scallops, shrimp, mussels, clams, cuttlefish, and swordfish. The broth was delicious, like a thin soup. Dessert was a cannoli - indescribable. Service was impeccable; friendly, timed perfectly. Although the Saturday night crowd was lively, conversation was comfortable. Can't wait to go back."

"My friend and I decided to to here for restaurant week since we liked their fixed menu. The service was excellent except they did not give us a plate for the bread they served. It was slightly messy eating crumby bread on a white table cloth. Also they only filled up our water once towards the end of our meal - we had an empty glass from our primi to desert. There was no one around to ask for more water. OTHER THAN THAY the food was amazing GREAT portions! I highly recommend the fried calamari. I would come back here for lunch and/or dinner. Great experience!"
