Date night, fun night! Great ambience, wonderful food. Went there with my partner and sat at one of the booths near the bar. It wasn’t too loud or crowded for a Sunday night, so it was perfect. We had the burrata salad as an appetizer. It was very delicious. One of the best I’ve had. For our entree, I had the pasta al forno, while my girl had the cioppino. They do make all their sauces and pasta in-house, and I gotta say, they knock it out of the park. I highly recommend this place if you’re in the area. Let’s not forget their waiting area with a warm hearth, which created a cozy and inviting space where you can share a glass of wine while you wait for a table.

Awful food and place to have a good dinning experience. They ask you how you want your steak medium or well done as if they are going to make it fresh, then they take a refrigerated cold meat and serve it cold. Not sure what the hell the cook was thinking. This was after I had to return the chicken soup to be heated because it was cold. Avoid by all means to dine there because it leaves you disgusted and angry.

We absolutely love Cafe Fiore!
Starting with the most delicious homemade bread served with a bruschetta sauce. We’ve enjoyed lunch and dinners here the last three weeks in a row and Edwin has been the Best Server on the patio. Pastas made in house, pizza was insane, fresh delicious toppings and yummy crust!

Me and my family (party of 4) went to Cafe Fiore and had a decent time. To start off, the atmosphere was lovely with nice lighting. The waitress was very polite and the food came with only a little wait. They also gave us some delicious complementary bread. We ordered the Shirley temple, gnocchi, the Pasta Integrale, and the Pollo Parmigiana. The Shirley temples tasted a bit too artificial. I would give the food a higher rating but I think my family just made the wrong choices in terms of what we liked, so can’t really rate it properly. But we really liked the pasta intergale. It had a really nice pesto flavor.

Just as a fish rots from the head down so does a rancid attitude descend from owner Maria F. to her servers Cyndi G. who sent an unprofessional and condescending private message to me in response to my original 3 star review and our main server of the night who’s name I never got and prompted me create this review in the first place.
I have never had such bad service that I felt a responsibly to not only post an honest review of their service but also go in at a later date to ensure management knew how poor their service was for a larger party. I was not there to get anything for free or a reduction or refund on $123 included tip. I was just there to share my experience at their restaurant a few nights prior.
One of the first things Maria F. (the owner according to yelp) says to me is that Cyndi G. tells us everything she responds to. That alone told me she couldn’t care less about anything I had to say because she already knew. So I asked her if she thought the response I got from Cyndi G. was in anyway condescending or unprofessional and she said no. The conversation went on a bit longer but I mainly wanted to give her our parties perspective on what happened even though I could tell that it was going nowhere.
The food was not great enough as to tolerate this unfortunate level of customer service. My original review is below. It was 3 stars because the food was good but I had to change it the following my interactions with Cyndi G. and Maria F. Now Cyndi G. has begun like and comment on this post as I update it to taunt or try to kill me with fake kindness. I approve of her continued abysmal customer service. Let everyone know who you are girly I’m having fun too!!
Food was amazing!! Service however was not. Server Cyndi G brought us something we did not order and then gave an attitude when we asked to have it removed from the bill. Unfortunately had to ask for a manager to get a 6 dollar item removed from a $790 check. Far from ideal service from the server Cyndi G but we really appreciated the manager who took the item off without question.

Great food, ambiance and location.
Wine list was also a big plus. Great portion sizes!
Ordered two salads and a main for two people and had plenty of leftovers.

Had a wonderful evening at Café Fiore in downtown Ventura. We sat outside — it was a little chilly, but the heaters kept us comfortable. The inside atmosphere looked cozy and romantic, perfect for a date night. Bathrooms were clean, which is always a plus.
We weren’t very hungry, so my husband and I shared the Cozze e Vongole along with a half bottle of Chianti — both were excellent. But the best part? The bread! Hands down, the best free bread we’ve ever had — a mix of French bread and focaccia served with garlic marinara. Absolutely delicious!
Great service, great vibe, and amazing food. We’d definitely come back next time we’re in Ventura.

This places looks like a really great experience, tasty food, unique and cozy- casual…. but I wouldn’t know. The service sucks. The hostesses may as well be the Witches of Eastwick and Ill never find out what a gem this could have been.

The service was horrendous — they completely forgot we were sitting outside. The seafood pasta and cioppino were okay, and the calamari was surprisingly the star of our meal. Unfortunately, the pizza was pretty awful.
