Fiorellino serves authentic Italian cuisine centered on traditional wood-fired pizzas and freshly prepared pasta dishes. The menu emphasizes quality ingredients imported directly from Italy, ensuring each plate reflects classic Mediterranean flavor profiles. Diners observe the artisan preparation process through an open kitchen layout featuring a large central stone oven. The environment utilizes industrial design elements such as exposed brick and polished concrete to create a functional, modern space. Each pizza base undergoes a precise fermentation process before meeting the intense heat of the wood fire to achieve a signature charred crust. Beverage selections focus on regional Italian labels chosen to complement the acidity and texture of the savory menu offerings. This establishment maintains a consistent culinary standard for those seeking genuine Neapolitan techniques and high-quality starch-based traditions in a contemporary setting.
Fiorellino is frequently praised for its authentic Italian menu, with the pizza and pasta consistently cited as standout dishes that deliver high-quality, fresh flavors. Many guests enjoy the vibrant, festive atmosphere and appreciate the attentive and professional service provided by the staff, often highlighting specific team members for their expertise and hospitality. While the restaurant is a popular destination for both special occasions and social dinners, some visitors note that the environment can become quite loud and cramped, particularly on weekends when music is playing, making it difficult to hold conversations. Although most feedback is positive regarding the culinary quality and overall energy, a few diners mentioned inconsistencies in service pacing, portion sizes, or the noise level, suggesting that while it is a top-tier choice for a lively dining experience, it may not suit those seeking a quiet or relaxed setting.
Un peu bruyant car très populaire, les plays sont beaux & délicieux, les pâtes sauce bolognaise, les carbonara, la salade caesar avec tataki de thon un vrai délice, que dire de la tarte au citron déconstruite, absolument parfaite! Les prix sont assez élevés mais la qualité est conséquente!
The vibe of the restaurant was great. Even though they were busy, our server still made an effort to provide good service, which we really appreciated.
We tried the Bietola Salad based on our server's recommendation, & it was honestly the best salad I've ever had 10/10, so flavorful & fresh. We also had the Bucatini pasta, which was decent, about a 7/10. The Cacio e Pepe pizza was okay, probably a 6/10.
To top it off, they surprised us with a tiramisu for dessert, & it was absolutely delicious another 10/10.
Overall, it was a really nice experience. I'd definitely recommend giving this place a try.
Came here for Valentine's Day dinner & had horrible experience. We saw a mice under our table twice & we were moved to another table. We let the staff know the waiters were nice & they moved us to another tabel. However, we lost our appetite because we felt disgusted. The manager came in & he handle the situation terribly. Joking about it instead of acknowledging the fact that he needs to take care of this issue as it is a restaurant & cleanliness of the restaurant should be thier top priority I don't know how they passed health & safety. Totally disappointed & did not appreciate how the manager handles it . He still wanted us to pay for a full course meal even tho we only had a tiny mini pizza & salad. We did not mind paying for it however the fact that he did not come to the table when we asked to speak with him really disappointed us. He told the server he was busy very unprofessional. I will inform Health safety so they can run thier inquiries.
I was looking for a charming, welcoming Italian restaurant & was not disappointed! This spot in downtown Montreal was absolutely delightful. I ordered the creste al ragù, which was delicious, as well as the vodka pasta & their fresh mixed lettuce salad. Everything tasted authentic & well-prepared.
The only thing I would mention is that, for the price, the pasta portions felt a little small. That said, the quality of the food & the overall atmosphere more than made up for it. Our waiter was extremely polite & the overall staff was very friendly.
Great place to eat. The waiter, Zach, was well versed in all the menu options & made good recommendations. We added prosciutto to our tomato smoked mozzarella pizza & the salad (arugula, pickled fennel, picked onions, & mandarins) was a fantastic addition. Visited on a Sunday night in late July.
Had been recommended to us & was not disappointed. Service was very friendly & responsive. Best pizza ever. Wood fired oven & special dough made for an amazing crust. Toppings were delicious. Salad was so good we ordered a second helping. A must try when in Montreal.
Came in on a busy night & were happy to get a table right away. Our server was serving the whole bar top plus our section so service was a bit slow, but food came out quickly. He recommended the ragu pasta & it was amazing! We also loved the mushroom tagliatelle & Caesar salad. The cheesecake on special was criminally small, but absolutely delicious. The food is definitely the highlight here, service was friendly & personable but more staff could help with speed. The menu could also be changed online, I had my heart set on a dish only to find that the menu had changed!
Great Neapolitan pizza! Delicious bolognese. Caesar salad was delicious, although could have used a touch more dressing. Perfect dirty martini! Great service. Dimly lit. Great spot!
