100/10!!! Amazing food and service! The seafood is always delicious and fresh. Meatballs are very tender and flavorful. My extremely picky five year old almost finished his plate. We live in a different town but would come back over and over again.

My plate was delicious, but I wish I ordered the lasagna. My mouth dropped when I saw it come out for another person that was at our party all in all this place is great spot to eat. We were celebrating a friends birthday and we had a really great time. The food was spectacular. I highly recommend going to this place!

Cafe Fiore, I have only gone when I had an event to attend. This time it was for a baby shower. They have separate rooms for parties. They always do an excellent job from the food to the service staff. The room was bright and spacious, would recommend it for any event.

Have eaten lunch and dinner here 4-5 times in the last 9 months. It is a good restaurant option. In fact, you can get a full blown lunch meal at the bar for the same amount of money you’d spend in the neighboring restaurants for far less quality.
Chicken Fiore, Chicken Marsala, Lasagne, Veal or Chicken Parmigiana have all been very good.

Absolutely delicious, it was tough making up my mind! The eggplant didn’t have skin on it and was so tasty!!!

Garlic knots are simply fantastic 10/10. The pasta fagioli left a little be desired but we took care of that with some Parmesan cheese 7/10 for the soup, but it was nice to dip the knots into the broth. 10/10 on the chicken francese though it was perfectly tender and the flavor was dialed. Our server Abraham was incredible. The music elevated the atmosphere.

My husband and I just moved in the area coming from West Hartford and we have been looking for quality entrees atmosphere and service a d we found this all here. We sat at the bar and Lena took care of us. SHE WAS THE BEST BARTENDER EVER!!! She knew how to run the bar alone.This place is exceptionally over and beyond. This will be our new pla e to have lunch or dinner. They also have happy hour which is great for when we get put of work. Don’t miss this restaurant.

This place is it. The food was delicious. The flavors were explosive. The drinks were delicious . Esthetic was very posh. Service was top-notch. Staff works as a team, courteous, warm, and on point. Our server Ines provided impeccable service. We even forgot our left overs and my husband’s glasses, and they had it set to the side for us. We received a gift card from our God parents, and we are grateful for the awesome time. Thank you. We will ve sending many people your way.

This is my favorite Italian restaurant in the area. The atmosphere is relaxing and nice. The service is quick and friendly. And the best part is the food. I’ve been here many times and they were never being disappointed. The food is always delicious. The ingredients are always fresh. I would highly recommend. And it’s a very decent place to treat guests or families.

We’re on tour and had been driving for 5 hours. We were 6 and decided we’d enjoy something more specific so we came here. We wanted to sit outside and enjoy some sun before we went back out on the road. We were greeted by a waitress, I’m not sure of her name, and here is where the bad experience starts.
We asked: “we were wondering if we could sit outside”
Waitress replied (with a BOTHERED tone): “I can’t do that because I have a party in the back and I’m not going to go back and forth”
We were all taken back, confused, but we had already crossed the street, decided to eat here because of the good reviews and so we stayed. We figured ok surely she’s not bothered by us asking. She COULD HAVE just said “I’m sorry outside dining isn’t available right now.” And we would’ve understood with no problem.
So we’re seated and one of us asks for the restroom, waitress replies (again with a BOTHERED tone): “it’s where you see the sign”
We honestly all just sat quietly. It was just uncomfortable at this point but we had less than 1 hr to find a new place, be seated, eat and from experience that takes minimum 1 hour so finding a new place was a no go.
Simultaneously as this is happening 2 people had just walked in and sat down right next to us. They witnessed this entire interaction and so they got up and left! Something we should’ve done but we were really hungry at this point.
We placed our orders and (note she only mentioned to ONE person that their entree came with a HOUSE salad, so we all assumed we didn’t get a side salad). So we mentioned to her that we would like separate checks.
She replied “I’m not going to do that because it takes up too much time and I have a party in the back”
Ok, since we all come from NYC, we all understand that it’s not always an ideal request as a server but we weren’t ordering 40 plates. It was just 6 entrees and a SINGLE drink. One ticket was actually going to be shared by 2 people.
So moments later we got her attention, we asked her if we could then speak to the manager because it felt like she just didn’t want us there. At this point we were the ONLY people dining other than her party in the back.
I then interjected and said:
“If splitting checks is going to take too much time away from your party then you can charge us now while we WAIT for our food.”
We chatted for a bit amongst ourselves and surprisingly her mood seemed to sort of change. She brought bread and then asked us what salads we’d like for our meals either house or Caesar! So we were confused again because moments ago only one person was offered a salad (just a house salad). So we placed our salad requests.
Here’s where the good experience comes in.
After she brought us bread to share and then quickly came out salads. Just as we finished our salads all of our entrees came out.
She offered us Parmesan cheese and checked up on us a couple times.
Interestingly I had her in my vantage point and she wasn’t at all looking like she was being pulled in different directions because of the “party”. . And this isn’t a fast casual place. It’s a decent dining experience and if something is not possible there’s a way you say it to assure that regardless if you can or can’t do something you make your GUESTS feel welcome.
I’ve worked in food service for many years so I know how much hard work goes into customer service but starting off with an attitude doesn’t help. Especially if your guests aren’t the ones being rude.
An honorable mention is that she had said a couple times she was the only one on the floor working and yet I saw her by the bar for extensive periods, not in the back with her PARTY.
I’ll say how I would’ve handled this whole thing, easy.
I would’ve said “give me a moment and let me ask the manager if the patio is available”
Then I would’ve asked my manager “I have a party of 6 you think I can have some support or is inside dining the only option?”
That’s it. Simple.
In the end food was def great, the bussers were friendly, eatablishment was clean. But that waitress was fortunate we even gave a tip.
