Fiorellino propose une cuisine italienne authentique axée sur les pizzas cuites au feu de bois et les plats de pâtes fraîchement préparés. Le menu met en valeur des ingrédients de qualité importés directement d’Italie, assurant que chaque assiette reflète les profils de saveurs méditerranéennes classiques. Les clients observent le processus de préparation artisanal grâce à une cuisine ouverte intégrant un imposant four en pierre central. L'environnement utilise des éléments de design industriel comme la brique apparente et le béton poli pour créer un espace fonctionnel et moderne. Chaque base de pizza subit un processus de fermentation précis avant de rencontrer la chaleur intense du feu de bois pour obtenir une croûte carbonisée caractéristique. La sélection de boissons se concentre sur des étiquettes italiennes régionales choisies pour compléter l’acidité et la texture des mets proposés.
Fiorellino est largement reconnu pour sa cuisine italienne authentique, de nombreux convives louant ses pizzas au four à bois exceptionnelles, ses pâtes fraîches et ses ingrédients de qualité. Le restaurant offre une atmosphère vivante et dynamique qui constitue un cadre idéal pour les rencontres sociales, et de nombreux visiteurs apprécient le service chaleureux, professionnel et attentionné du personnel. Bien que l'établissement soit fréquemment décrit comme énergique et bruyant en raison de sa popularité et de sa musique, la plupart des clients considèrent l'expérience culinaire globale, associée à une sélection soignée de cocktails et de vins, comme un moment fort de leur passage au centre-ville de Montréal.
Came to Fiorellino for dinner with friends. We had an early (6pm) dinner reservation to beat the rush. It got very busy & plaid while we were there. The drinks were fantastic & the food was even better. Everything is hand made in house daily from scratch. The vodka rigatoni was creamy without being overpowering. The gnocchi was equally delicious. If happy return again, next time looking to try their pizza.
Best place in Montreal! Food was delicious & great service. We were a large group, & people ordered different drinks & they arrived quickly. There was even a great DJ on Saturday. It was our engagement party & the manager Phil took great care of us. Thanks a lot to the whole team.
Came in yesterday at 6:45pm, I had a reservation at 7pm (The reservation was not in my name) & they made me wait in a random spot between tables even though my table was wide open. When my friends came in at around 6:55pm, they made us wait until 7:15 to actually guide us to our table. Service was ok, nothing mind blowing.
Food was good, I had the tagliatelle bolognese. Again, nothing mind blowing & quite expensive. I had one of their house drinks which was a total of less than 4oz for 19$, so VERY overpriced. The squash & sage raviolis are good, but the raviolis themselves are quite bland, you only taste the sauce.
At 8:40, our server came by & told us we had to leave before 9pm because they had another reservation, but when we called, they said we would have the table until 9:30pm. We told our server who went to get his manager to confirm. The manager is one of the most condescending person I've ever met. Me & my friends are in our early 20s, & he treated us like we were 14 y/o. He said that the confirmation email my friend received was fake, that we never had the table for 2.5 hours, only 2 hours. When I told him that we got sat down 15min after the beginning of our reservation, he said that was because my friends were late (not the case). I told him that no, they came in early & he proceeded to tell me'No, that's not true you're lying'. The only person who came in'late' was another friend of mine, who could only come at 8pm, but I'd told the hostess about that as soon as I came in that we did not need to wait for her & that she would only order drinks.
A seemingly 40y/o man telling a 21y/o she's lying because of a mistake your staff made is unbelievable & unacceptable. I absolutely do not blame the staff, but I cannot believe the pure unprofessionalism of this manager. Nevertheless, after this whole manager incident, our waited apologized profusely & kept telling us that he understood our displeasure & that it was completely a mistake on their part.
Ps: I almost did not leave this review after seeing how the owner responds to bad reviews. You claim to be a restaurant that offers a luxury experience, yet this is how you treat clients that had a bad experience? By basically insulting them? Don't worry, I'm sure I can find Italian restaurants with staff that won't call me a liar for stating facts.
The food was really nice, the wood oven pizza was amazing. The place was quaint but overly crowded. The service, however, took forever. Our server was quick to deliver drinks, etc, after we ordered them, but trying to get their attention to order anything took forever.
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.
Had a terrific experience at Fiorellino. The service was really outstanding. I regret not getting the name of our server but she did a wonderful job (edit: it was Cassandra, thank you Cassandra you were fantastic). Don't stress if you don't speak French (or Italian), everyone will make you feel comfortable regardless. So, the food. This place is known for their pizza, & tbh, rightfully so. However we also tried the Burrata, the Tagliatelle, & the Carpaccio, which was one of the tastiest we've ever had, & we've had it at more than a couple Michelin starred restaurants. Everything was fresh & wonderfully prepared & beautifully presented. The cocktails were great & fairly reasonable in pricing. Interesting flavour combinations & I'm personally a fan of the liquors they use in their signature cocktails (Ketel One, Casamigos, & Tanqueray, which I think is an underrated cocktail gin, in the drinks that we tried). They had a DJ playing who really hit his mark in terms of maintaining the atmosphere. There was some talent in display there but he wasn't trying to stand out, just to give a nice (baseline/bassline lol) of sound for everyone to enjoy. Sound levels were at the perfect level as well, no straining for conversation, but your conversation felt private as well. All in all a very satisfying experience for a price that wasn't cheap, but far from exorbitant. Thanks guys, we're looking forward to returning.
