Buonanotte, buonanotte Montréal, cette petite fleur est pour vous…
Fiorellino est une adresse italienne prisée au centre de Montréal, où les pizzas au four à bois et les pâtes fraîches séduisent par leur pâte légère et leurs saveurs riches. Les avis soulignent une ambiance chaleureuse et festive, idéale pour une soirée entre amis, mais le niveau sonore peut être élevé, surtout le weekend lorsque la musique et un DJ prennent le dessus. Le service est généralement attentif et accueillant, mais des périodes de fort afflux entraînent des retards et une impression de service pressé. Le rapport qualité-prix varie: pizzas et plats signature sont souvent loués, certaines portions de pâtes pouvant sembler petites ou chères, et les desserts ou vins font parfois l objet de critiques. Des expériences négatives mentionnent parfois un accueil insuffisant de la part de la direction ou des temps d attente importants, tandis que d autres soulignent des serveurs compétents qui guident le choix des plats et des boissons et font tout pour que l expérience reste agréable. Réservation recommandée car l endroit est très fréquenté et les places partent vite. En somme, Fiorellino offre une expérience gourmande et vivante avec des plats italiens de qualité et une énergie forte, idéale pour une soirée animée et des pizzas et pâtes à tester, tout en restant conscient que l ambiance peut être bruyante et que le service peut varier selon l affluence.
Visiting friends in town who took me here, & the atmosphere was really fun with a live DJ (Friday night) & good vibes. I cannot recommend getting the carpaccio, for 22$ you get the thinnest slices of pear & barely anything for your money. The tartare was good, & the pizzas were nice as well. Nothing fancy.
Where I have the most issues is with the price of drinks... Just get a cocktail from the menu! I ordered two gin & tonics with a shot of St-Germain liquor extra in each, which ran me to 25$ a drink. 50$ for two gin & tonics, no warnings from the waitstaff either. They weren't anything special, nor top shelf liquor. I had quite the shock when the bill came, & honestly felt deflated leaving the restaurant. The vibes are good, but they cannot justify this in my opinion.
A little on the pricey side for what you get in terms of pasta but it is a nice atmosphere, great service & the pizzas look amazing, from wood burning stove
La Pizza più buona qui a Montreal e forse anche di Toronto. Personale gentile ed educato; una pecca musica troppo alta, forse perché era un venerdì sera.
Fiorellino is a quintessential Montréal spot! It's gorgeous, perfectly located downtown, & always buzzing with energy. I've been coming here since 2016, & it remains a staple for a great pizza in Montréal!
The Vibe & Service:
I almost always visited on Friday or Saturday evenings, & you should know: it is packed & very loud. They did have a DJ playing music (vibes 10/10), which creates a great atmosphere, but the tables are very close to each other, so expect an intimate (& noisy) experience!
Logistics can be a bit of a shuffle. This time we had a 7:00 PM reservation for six people, but still spent 10 minutes huddled in the cold, cramped entryway before being moved to the bar. We weren't seated at our actual table until 20-30 minutes past our reservation time. Service over the years has been consistently'average' but functional, but definitely felt the pressure of the weekend rush.
The Food & Drinks:
The food is the saving grace. The cocktails are fantastic & well-crafted. The pizza is the absolute star as the dough is incredibly light & airy with that perfect wood-fired char. I've tried the gnocchi & the polpete (meatballs) in the past; they are delicious, though definitely on the pricier side for the portions.
Verdict:
Go for the incredible pizza & the energy. It's a great spot if you're looking for a lively weekend scene, but just don't expect a quiet conversation or a perfectly timed table!
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.

The food was really good, the pasta was fresh & so was the pizza dough. We tried the spaghetti, the gnocchi, the agnolotti, the sausage & goat cheese pizza & the roasted vegetables one. We waited 45-60mins for the food which was a bit long. But I can say it was worth the wait as the agnolotti was my favorite, full of flavor. Although they made a mistake in our order & all the food didn't arrive at the same time, they managed to repair their mistake in little time. Would come back !
If you look for a delicious pizza, this is the place!
Now they just have to work on training the employees on attentive service & their head out of the TV & phone screens & creating a warm ambiance (with isolating the chairs legs making noise on the concrete floor & tone down the house/techno music & maybe change it for Italian contemporary like Dean Martin, Andrea Bocelli, etc..).

I got a pepperoni pizza here yesterday & it was delicious! I forgot to get a picture because I was too busy enjoying it 😁
EDIT: I went back today & ordered another pepperoni pizza & a gnocchi bolognese & actually remembered to snap a pic. Both were really good, & the gnocchi were super pillow-y! 😁
Pizza oli ihan ok, mutta palvelussa oli parannettavaa. Tuntuu kuin tarjoilijoita ei olisi kiinnostanut meidän olemassaolo. Vaimo kerkesi tilaamaan oman juomansa, mutta tarjoilija juoksi karkuun ja en itse kerennyt sanomaan mitään. Laskun maksun jälkeen ei mitään kiitelty vaan lähdettiin heti äkkiä pois.
We love this place. Had a great set menu for our group, & the pizzas are some of the best in town. The wine selection is also really top-tier, small Italian houses like Le Berne (who hosted our wine tasting dinner) are featured & really well priced. Highlight of the evening was having our soirée crashed by the Prime Minister of Canada 🤣 see photos…
Delicious authentic Italian dishes across the board. I own an Italian restaurant & I am Italian & these dishes are top of the top. Pizza is incredible as well.
Highly recommend for lunch & dinner.
Most fairly priced delicious spot in Montreal & very warm service from everybody in the restaurant from start to finish.
Overall, Fiorellino offers excellent Italian cuisine in Montréal: excellent pizzas & pastas, a lively atmosphere, stylish surroundings, & good value given the quality. Great pick for a date night or social dinner-less ideal if you want quiet or ultra?fast service.
Fiorellino è un ottimo ristorante italiano in centro a Montréal a due passi dalla metro. Il locale è moderno e accogliente, il personale gentile e il servizio veloce di qualità altissima. La pizza è davvero buona e la tagliata è da provare. Per la qualità del cibo e per l'atmosfera il prezzo è addirittura economico. È la seconda volta che vengo e ce ne saranno tante altre a venire!
