“Fiero Cafe is a great spot for a casual but satisfying meal. The pasta here is authentic and delicious — the bolognese especially stands out, rich and full of flavor. Portions are just right, and you can tell the ingredients are fresh. They also serve omelets, which make a nice lighter option if you’re not in the mood for pasta. Overall, a cozy place with tasty, well-made dishes that feel genuinely Italian.“

“+ Great variety of choices for brunches (sandwiches, bagels, rice plates, etc, rice balls) and beverages (coffee, tea, boba, etc)
+ Loved the omelet. Light and fresh taste. Not over-flavored like many other brunch places.
+ Quiet and low key atmosphere

- Hojicha was too sweet.“

2000 Alameda de las Pulgas, San Mateo

“Had Breakfast here during our stay in San Mateo. Our Hotel was nearby and didn't serve breakfast, after a quick search, decided to check out this place. Glad we did, great Coffee and Food. This was the first place we visited during our trip to San Francisco. It's located in an Office Building, lots of parking. What we loved too was how everyone here knew each other. Staff were very warm and friendly. Will definitely visit again.“

“Iced matcha was not strong enough, so I will try hot matcha next time. Also iced strawberry matcha is nice. They made my order wrong at first (matcha instead of strawberry matcha) so they gave me the matcha for free—super kind, thanks!

Line is long but fast, and seating may not look available at first but it cleared up for me. Love the vibe and furniture.“

“The Home Run sourdough breakfast sandwich was excellent and I would order that again x100. The hash brown serving that came with the sandwich was ginormous and I ended up needing a to-go box for that! The latte however was not to my liking, tasted bitter to me.“
