Very intimate setting with outstanding cuisine. Every visit is filled with great food and memories. We always end up meeting and engaging with other guests. Can’t say enough good things about Cafe Fiore.

A perfect 10. Starting from the time you make reservations. They have about 6 tables so you definitely will need reservations. The best time to try is between seasons as lake Tahoe is a summer/winter town. As for the staff they are amazing and very professional at the same time they make you feel at home. Now food: We started with fresh garlic bread and stuffed ravioli ( stuffed with goat cheese and fig) which were both out of this world. Then salad or soup ( fresh minestrone soup and salad with dressing Gorgonzola dressing). Was amazing. Then we had 4 different entries. First was stuffed rainbow trout (stuffed with crap) The second was capellini bocconcini, the meatballs just melted in your mouth and the pasta was cooked perfectly with just the right amount of marinara sauce. The third was spaghetti con salsiccia, the sausage you couldn't get enough of perfect taste ( a little spice and the right amount of other flavors). Once again the spaghetti was cooked perfectly with the right amount of sauce. Now the last was pollo alla Sonoma, the chicken was cooked perfectly and the sauce was amazing. The wines were perfect and if you don't like wine they have a few beers that would amaze you. They gave us a little sample of their dessert as we were all stuffed which I wish I would have saved more room for as it tasted great and would have been a great item to finish with.

I don’t know if it was the color of our skin, or something else, but we felt like we were treated differently compared to the other guests/tables which were predominantly white.

We came here for my birthday with all the good reviews, and the food didn’t fail! We ordered Linguine Fra Diavolo, Filetto al Barolo, Spinach Salad. They were cooked to perfection! We would definitely come back for the food but not for the service!

Loved the restaurant. They accomodated a late booking.
Loved the specials (fresh sea food). Their eggplant crepes were lovely especially the smoked salmon.
Went with their house recommendation for wine and it paired great with the food.
Would definitely visit again. Call to check for appointments as they don't entertain walkins due to Covid.

Ed and Maggie welcomed us for dinner, even though it was last minute. Service was excellent from start to finish. The meals were succulent. The ice cream is a must-try, it’s very unique in taste and texture. I can’t recommend this place enough!

Our favorite restaurant in South Lake Tahoe! We are always greeted as special friends by the owner and staff. We had excellent eggplant crepes, halibut, shrimp and scallops last night. And great wine choices. Fiore is always our first choice when coming to Tahoe!

One of the nicest restaurants I've ever been to. Nick, the owner, could not have been more accommodating. Taryn, our waitress, was fantastic! The food was delicious and the outdoor atmosphere was like an enchanted forest. Highly recommend, you will not be disappointed.

This was such an incredible restaurant! My best friend is getting married and we celebrated her bachelorette party here in Tahoe & this dinner was such an incredible and perfect way to remember this trip together. The staff was so welcoming and kind, they answered any and all questions and made the dinner effortlessly perfect. There was never a time when we wanted something, that we didn’t already have. On top of that, our servers had INCREDIBLE personalities. They were so nice & kind and we are just so thankful for them.

Not enough restaurants take the time to care about the way their staff treats their customers, so it was really incredible to see such a complete & well rounded, accommodating staff.

Thanks for making this weekend’s end perfect for us! & special thanks to Calvin & Ed for being so great!

Lovely birthday dinner here - fantastic wine, pastas and salad. Thoroughly enjoyed the chocolate cake and white chocolate ice cream with raspberry sauce for dessert. Glad I made a reservation here a couple weeks in advance!
