We stopped in close to closing and the staff were very welcoming. The light scent of the wood oven was relaxing and a great into to the meat lovers and pesto pizzas we enjoyed. The water glasses had a nice texture and weight…. it makes a positive difference.

Try the Lemom Lentil Soup. It was great!

I’ll be back.

This restaurant is an absolute gem! Their brick oven pizza is delicious, and the pasta dishes are always fresh and full of flavor. I’ve been here many times, and every visit is just as wonderful as the last.

Lilian, , is warm and welcoming—she makes you feel like family the moment you walk in. Danny and Barbara are fantastic servers who always go above and beyond to make the experience great.

If you’re looking for amazing food and even better hospitality, this is the place to be. Highly recommend!

Fried calamari was a little overcooked, no tentacles, small rings, calzone was enormous. The center was still cool, but the crust was good, the flavor was good needs to be cooked at a lower temperature.
Clam sauce was good, chopped clams, needed a little more garlic,
Sorry and meatballs were good

La Florentina has become our go-to dinner out when we want a really nice Italian meal, friendly service, moderate prices and a relaxed and unpretentious atmosphere. We did takeout pizza once and were not that impressed, but when we’ve had pizza, main dishes and salads right there it’s all been spot-on and tasty. The portions are generous, too — we often get a second meal from leftovers. I definitely encourage you to try them…I think you’ll be very pleasantly surprised.

La Florentina is not your run of the mill pizza or Italian restaurant. Their unique menu options and wood roasted techniques definitely make this restaurant stand out. We have gone many times and continue to come back because of the quality of the food. The restaurant is in a more run-down location of Kingston, and the atmosphere is a bit dated and run down, but do not let that stop you from trying this place. Go for the food and you will not be disappointed. Warning the food is very good but it is also very salty, oily, and lots of garlic. There really is way too much of these ingredients, which causes it to taste amazing at first, but by the end, you wish they had used half the oil. I still love their food, but i also do not finish my serving. They do charge an extra fee if you use a credit card and the last time we went they were unable to serve alcohol which is a bit disappointing because their dishes will go great with a nice glass of wine. Hopefully, that issue will get resolved quickly.

We ordered this to go, and it was nice and hot and ready, we started eating it in the car. The dough of this place is very different than anywhere around here, since it’s fresh woodfired and delicious!

I feel that there should be basil on the margarita pizza , but if not, no big deal…it was very good the cheese is a fresh and a little salty, makes for some awesome mozzarella!

The whole family felt that the chicken Alfredo was very very bland, no seasoning at all …it tasted like what a kid would order like butter noodles, there was no cheesiness taste 🙁 but it actually looked very good, but it did not taste good, it was very disappointing.

The calzone was very good I actually was worried about the marinara being inside but it it is a great balance and very delicious, and it’s flat but still good!

The parmigiana pizza seems like it would taste way better if they were to finesse it a little bit the flavors are really great but way too big chunks of tomato way too big chunks of prosciutto they’re nice cut should be way more small and delicate, especially because the pizza crust is so thin that it just becomes a huge soggy mess ….and the only part that really taste good is the outside edge. Also, there should be more cheese than what we received and maybe a little less pesto, because it became again very oily and soggy.

I would return here, but specifically for only certain kinds of pizzas and the calzone.

We ordered a pizza for dinner from La Florentina in August, 2023. I have read reviews and wonder where this restaurant that people spoke of, actually is? We stopped in to pick up the pizza. Right off the bat, there was nobody to speak with. The only person available at first was a gentalman at the pizza oven. Let’s just say that we had a major communications issue. Finally, he got a women who at least could speak with us.
We picked up our pizza only to find out that a large pizza at La Florentina is what would be considered a medium or small at most places. They do not take credit cards, so you must bring cash. But they will provide you with a ATM so that you can use plastic, just not with them. I do not know what fees and such would be involved.
The place didn’t seem to have a lot of tables. But maybe I just missed them. Parking isn’t bad for a little strip mall. But it can be difficult to get out of if headed south.
When we got just up the street with the pie, we of course sampled it. I will be extremely nice and say, it was not the best we ever had. Ok, it was not good. It fell apart when you tried to pick it up. It was extremely dry, but acted like it was soggy, with little sauce. It was totally different. No oil or grease, but just fell apart. Some of the pizza had sausage, but a quarter of it had none. Cheese was thin and little sauce. Just nothing good to say other than it was sort of a pizza. So what is it that others raved about?
I wondered if I should try them again and chalk it up to a bad night. But, no, I will not even try them after what they called pizza and took our money. Besides, we were leaving to head home which is many states away. I do not know anyone in the business up there. We were just visiting a relative for a few days and decided to pick a pizzeria close by. It even had good reviews. So I have to wonder why the good reviews? Who posted that this place was good. I now wonder what folks in that area feel is good?
