Fiorellino comes across in reviews as a buzzy downtown Italian spot where the pizza is the star and the vibe is warm, lively, and often loud. Guests rave about the wood-fired crust, light dough, and flavorful pastas and gnocchi, with numerous dishes praised for freshness and presentation; the antipasti, salads, and desserts also get favorable mentions. The drinks program is highlighted for well-crafted cocktails and a thoughtful wine list, though some note a limited selection by the glass and a bustle around bar service. Service is generally described as attentive and friendly, with several servers and bartenders going above and beyond, while other visits report long waits for food or a crowded, noisy dining room that makes conversation difficult. Reservations are advised, especially on weekends, and the atmosphere is considered ideal for a lively date night or group outing rather than a quiet meal. Overall, Fiorellino is seen as a delicious, high-energy Italian option in the city, offering excellent pizza and strong hospitality with some variability in pace and acoustics.
Great spot for the best pizza in Montreal Recommended by Four Seasons Very friendly owner Heirloom tomato & beet salad is to die for Pizza is super thin crust very tasty perfect texture Homemade peanut butter & jelly cheesecake topped it all off Go to for pizza when we're in town
Very busy at lunch so I recommend to reserve since a lot of the office workers come here. Even though the restaurant was full, the service was relatively fast. I got the Stella pizza which has a white sauce with prosciutto. Also tried their funghi gnocchi. I enjoyed the flavours of both dishes but felt that it was quite salty. My mouth felt so dry I had to keep on drinking water for the rest of the day. Dishes are also on the pricier side. Would prefer going to pizzeria 900 for taste to price ratio. Overall decent place but wouldn't come back.
Split an amazing cacio Pepe pizza with a nice bottle of wine with my fiancee for dinner. The Caesar salads were delicious as well! The waiting staff was superb & watching the pizzas being made with gusto was fun as well. Definitely recommend!
Pizza Astoria & the Pappardelle Bolognese were delicious. Music was a little loud but blurred out the noise from other tables. Will be returning to try other dishes & would definitely recommend this restaurant. Good luck finding parking.
Went upon the recommendation of a friend & was not disappointed! The service was friendly & prompt, the restaurant had a great atmosphere & my Contadina pizza was fantastic. Would highly recommend to others.
We came in pretty last minute & they sat us at the bar, the staff were friendly & the food was tasty so I'd definitely recommend :) Didn't get the chance to get a good picture but we had pizzas & drinks & it was nice to get the chance to have dinner relatively close to the downtown core & be able to continue touring the city afterwards.
I really loved this place - I think that the food is phenomenal (I would highly recommend the stracciata pizza & the ravioli fiorellino) & the atmosphere is amazing. Service is quick & everyone is very friendly, but I would recommend that you make a reservation (normally pretty easy to get one the day of).
My favorite place to go! Davide is such an amazing chef food is always excellent! The waiters give us a great service as well, really recommend this place for a group or a date night!
Nous allions voir un spectacle au Mtelus. Nous cherchions donc un restaurant qui se fait à pied de là-bas. C'était notre première fois au Fiorellino & nous sommes tombés sous le charme de cet endroit. J'ai pris la pizza formaggio di Capra (pizza à la saucisse italienne & fromage de chèvre) & mon conjoint a pris les gnocchi di ricotta Les portions sont généreuses & chaque bouché est un vrai régal. Vous devez absolument essayer les pizzas pour tester leurs croûtes. Nous avons terminé le repas avec une mignonne tarte au citron qui était tout aussi délectable. Nous vous recommandons donc ce restaurant sans aucune hésitation.

La nourriture est excellente, tout comme les boissons ! Je recommande à 100%. L'atmosphère est aussi superbe. Cependant, nous avons voulu continuer le repas & prendre des desserts mais pas le temps apparemment ... On nous a mis dehors pour laisser la table à d'autres personnes. Cela faisait exactement 1h20 que nous étions à table. On a demandé à parler au responsable qui n'a même pas daigné venir. Il passait à côté de la table sans venir, comme s'il s'en fichait. J'aimais beaucoup cette place mais je n'y mettrai plus les pieds à cause de cette expérience ... Sinon le reste est superbe 😉
Si vous voulez un restaurant calme, romantique & autres, oublier ce restaurant ! Musique hyper forte, vous pouvez pas entendre la personne en face de vous, le service est déplorable, faut pas avoir une grosse faim, sinon faut pas venir dans ce restaurant, & pour terminer les desserts peut de choix ... Je recommande pas !!!
The ambience was very cozy & intimate. Reservation needed. We ordered the burrata starter & focaccia bread, both extremely fresh & delicious. For mains, we had the gnocchi & mushroom tagliatelle, both very flavourful. They also have a huge wine selection. Highly recommend!

Dinner here was amazing! Most of the dishes were better than I expected. I’d recommend the pesto pasta & ravioli. I love that the ravioli comes in a flower shape - so cute!! The drinks were also delicious. I ordered a random cocktail & loved it. The only thing that was just okay was the cheesecake dessert.
Service was fast, could have been more attentive though as we had to flag servers to get our bill & order dessert.
Had lunch there recently while visiting Montreal. We tried Fiorellino after it was suggested by a good friend with a long history in the service industry. It did not disappoint & was exceptional. Our server was extremely kind, polite, efficient & helpful. The food was exceptional & a good time was had by all. Great restaurant for families & business meetings. Highly recommended.
Our hotel recommended this restaurant.
We ordered two pizzas & they were burnt black.
I would never have served this to a guest.
We should have sent them both back to the kitchen!
The pile of uneaten black crust was not acknowledged
Our water glasses where never filled either.
Maybe they need to put jugs of water on the tables so guests can fill their own glasses.
