This place is the perfect spot for anyone looking to be fancy and celebrate a special occasion. The building and atmosphere alone were breathtaking. Our waiter was so kind, and he made us feel special for our date night (Didn’t catch his name, but he kind of looked like daredevil lol). I would absolutely recommend this place. My only criticism is the food portions are a little too small, but still fantastic quality.

Super romantic restaurant. We reserved seating in a private balcony but it was raining so that was a no- go. However, they sat my husband and I near the balcony with windows all around. You could see the Riverwalk and the Battleship North Carolina all lit up right across the river from the restaurant windows. It was quiet; great ambiance. Lights were low but not too low to read the menu or see your food. The food was AMAZINGLY delicious. I had the Tortellini Tenderloin and the Lobster Bisque. My husband had the Chitarra. The food was delicious (but portions were very small). For dessert we had the Cannolis and I had the Limoncello cake with Raspberry Sauce. Yummers! Our Server was John. He was very knowledgeable about the food and very gracious. It felt very upscale.

A wonderful experience from start to finish. It was my birthday and I was hoping to get a balcony seat and we did!! Our server, Skylar, was the absolute best. She was so sweet and always smiling. I had Lasagna with bechamel (not ricotta) and it was delicious. My husband had creamy risotto with truffle sauce, scallops and shrimp. Chef’s kiss!!Amaretto rice pudding with a scoop of gelato (and candle) was the perfect end to the evening. We were visiting from Raleigh, but, I’ve always wanted to experience eating there and we definitely will again! Well done and thank you!! It was a fantastic 70th birthday!”

Had a wonderful anniversary dinner here. Our pink haired waitress was incredibly attentive and friendly! They truly helped make the night special! We were on the balcony seating and I highly recommend sitting out there at least once, the views are incredible from those seats and it is very romantic! The fresh pasta is fantastic and we personally loved the steamed mussels and bread with pesto.

Wife and I went online a little unplanned weekend getaway and the last stop was the riverwalk. She had found this restaurant online and made us reservations the day before for our anniversary. The balcony seating overlooking the river was an absolute perfect view for dinner. It is warm and probably better closer to sunset but the breeze made it better and was so worth it. The staff was amazing and always made sure we were doing good and the food was out of this world. I got the shrimp and scallop risotto and the wife got ravioli in a cream sauce with mushrooms and spinach. We also split a beet salad (they split it for you and its huge) couldn’t ask for a better view and experience.

We enjoyed a lovely dinner at Floriana. Our server, Zoe, was exceptional and offered helpful info in choosing our dining selections. We started with the calamari and salads. Delish. Hubby had lasagna which he said ranked as one of the best he’s had. I had the scallops over a fennel slaw which was savory and scrumptious. Wine choices were also very good. We had a nice view of the Xmas Tree and Menorah from our window. We walked around after dinner and enjoyed the holiday lights along nearby Riverwalk. All in all a truly wonderful evening.

We enjoyed a fresh and delicious meal at Floriana. The fresh pasta was amazing and the black gnocchi appetizer and Caesar salad were well prepared. Our server, Ella, was very knowledgeable on the menu, attentive and friendly. Overall, a great dinner experience. Would like to sit on a balcony next time!

We loved our experience! We waited for a balcony at the bar and had a few drinks and an appetizer. Our waitress was very kind and gave me a wine suggestion to pair with my short rib dinner, and it was delicious! My husband got the pork chop meal. Both were very good, and the staff was friendly and attentive
