Fiori Italian

First of all, I would like to get this out the way. If you're looking for a big meal, you're not going to get it here. The meals are small and the prices are high with that out the way the food is good. Not spectacular but good. Maybe I would come back to try something else, but the best part was the dessert I must say for a restaurant that's fancy was it Italian cuisine and the best part is the dessert? That's not saying much. My wife ordered a salmon which was good. It was medium. It came with so and your hair pasta. I'll give it a 3.5 out of five. I ordered the muscles. They were big and very fresh but the sauce could have been better. It's some kind of red sauce. You could have a better experience at Carrabba's with their muscles and as far as the dessert, like I said before, what is the best part like the dessert alone would be just enough to go back to that place and try something different. We had the the thinly sliced apple i would caramel gelato ice cream with a puff pastry underneath that was delicious and that was pretty much the best part. But with that said I would definitely give this restaurant a try. What they definitely need is something like Olive garden or Carrabba's where they give you something to eat while you wait for your meal. They do give you bread but they could give you something else to snack on while you wait for your food because the food was not very filling I don't like leaving the restaurant. Still feeling hungry but that's just me especially after paying 100 bucks. Oh and one more thing I only gave them a four-star rating because of the dessert.

My daughter and her family came up from Arkansas for Thanksgiving this year and we went to Fiori Thanksgiving Eve . There were 9 of us. We were treated royally. The chef came out and offered us entrees that were not on the menu. Everything we had was wonderful . The chef fixed a charcuterie board that was perfect. I will return. My grandchildren loved the food also . They are 8, 16 and 18.

The atmosphere was just great!! Ample staff that provides a very impressively attentive table service. The crab cake appetizer was among the best ive had. The lamb was next level. Just succulent!! The linguine and clams (white) was wonderful. While the menu wasn't extensive, it seemed that every order that came to our table (6) was a chef specialty. Just a beautiful food presentation for every selection. Wine and drink selections were also very good. Chef came to our table and asked us all what we would be having. Making suggestions as to his freshest selections, along with some very nice humor, as he made his way around the dinning room speaking to guests. A very nice authentic Italian touch. A great effort at top notch service and delivery. Fiori becomes an absolute go to for us. Highly recommended!! Thank you very much!!

P.S. - In reading some other reviews, I read that a reviewer states that Fiori is "anything but authentic Italian". While I respect the opinions of others, I feel I must comment: A few of my "go to's" in Chicago for Italian food and atmosphere are Gene and Gorgetti, Coco Pazzo. While Fiori is new, in my humble view to say "not authentic Italian" is just not accurate.

during the height of Covid pandemic, truth bbq was a regular staple. One of the few places that opened their doors where you could get out and enjoy a meal and then afterwards sit on the outdoor patio and smoke a stogie.. imagine my curiosity when the very building that housed my beloved neighborhood bbq, stogie haunt shuttered their doors and reemerged as a completely different kind of restaurant and experience.. “ Fiori” wow wow.. and more wow I’m thoroughly impressed and floored.. very lovely decor.. the place has been remodeled from top to bottom. I couldn’t stop looking around at my surroundings with amazement. The Italian cuisine very authentic and delicious I had the chicken Milanese with mash potatoes.. it kinda reminded me of my favorite dish from Cooper’s hawk and the cheese cake factory ( chicken Madeira), I had the Caesar salad.. and my wife had the salmon dish with angel pasta.. I actually had a few bites of my wife’s dish.. and it was just enough to get me back for a second visit.. I closed my dinner out with an old fashioned cocktail.. and left.. the waitress said they were still trying to put together a menu for the bar side of the restaurant.. and hopefully maybe they’ll have some of the dishes I enjoyed when the restaurant was originally a barbecue restaurant but if not I’m sure it’ll be worth giving a try.. one tiny request can you guys figure out the music.. the music was kinda not going along with the vibe of the restaurant in my opinion other than everything else was top notch

We had a lovely night here at Fiori. We can’t wait to come back :) We were happy with every course and loved the atmosphere. Can’t wait for a full house! We’ll be back soon. Thank you for a wonderful dinner, Chef Gaetano!
