Came as a treat while my mom came to visit and it was so loud especially since the tables are like 6 inches apart. The carbonara wasn't very flavorful and my filet mignon was overcooked to the preference I specified. But the worst was sitting next to a large group of middle aged men who were swearing and being so loud and boisterous it almost ruined the whole vibe. Our server was good but felt like we were treated as well as the bigger groups. Not sure I'll go again.

We had dinner at Fioretta last night, and it was overall a wonderful experience. The moment we walked in, we were greeted by beautiful Christmas decorations and a cozy holiday ambiance. The restaurant was packed, so the wait time was a little longer than expected, but the staff did an excellent job making sure we were comfortable and taken care of. Their service was warm, attentive, and genuinely thoughtful. The food was fantastic, especially the steak. We ordered the New York strip, and it was cooked perfectly.

Thanksgiving dinner was so delicious, and we shared some other dishes. The simple lemon cake and a little bit of vanilla ice cream were so good that I didn’t really care for desserts. Our family had a wonderful experience with delicious food!

We visited Fioretta for a birthday celebration and were excited to enjoy the experience. Unfortunately, the evening started off poorly the hostess at the door set the tone. Despite booking a month in advance, messaging, and calling to secure a specific booth and being assured it would be available for us, it wasn't. Throughout our visit, there were always booths available, and it didn't appear that there were fully booked reservations for all of the middle booths. The oysters and drinks were excellent, and the server was very friendly, which helped salvage some of the evening. The filet mignon was tougher than expected, and the pasta was overcooked. It was kind of the server to bring us a birthday dessert with sparklers Overall, it was a decent experience, but the poor start with the hostess and the booth mix-up, combined with some issues with the food, made it less than ideal for a birthday celebration.

We had a perfect Thanksgiving dinner here! Our server (unfortunately I can't recall her name) was exceptional. It truly felt like our home away from home. The service, ambience and food were all terrific.

Went for our anniversary and sat in the velvet room which was quieter though I was hoping to sit in the main dining room as it was more beautiful! Our server was wonderful - she was very attentive! The only thing I didn't appreciate was that she knew it was our anniversary and that they were bringing a dessert on the house and asked us if we wanted to order dessert, which we did, without knowing a dessert was already coming on the house. We were already filled and just wanted to share one dessert but instead got two large pieces of cake. The bar was hopping and they had an outstanding jazz trio with singer- they were all so talented! I would definitely recommend going if you're ok with the high price tag - $360 plus for 2 (+-).

Six of us celebrated my son's birthday. The curved booth allowed for great conversation but plenty of room. Wait staff was very attentive. Great pacing of drinks, appetizers and main course. We never felt rushed. Food was excellent, of note my two sons shared the 44oz Bistecca alla Fiorentina which had an amazing presentation and definitely plenty. Pasta dishes were huge, fresh seafood and delicious. Great acoustics. Music was upbeat but not loud so conversation is easy even though restaurant was packed. Dessert of Olive Oil Cake and Tiramisu delicious and plenty to share around the table. A totally great place for a special celebration!

I would not return. Food was expensive and nothing spectacular. Service was lackluster. We booked a high top for 8:15 pm, got the table near a wall that was pushed too close. I'm 18 weeks pregnant and barely have a bump and could hardly get into my seat, they just kept trying to push the table away. Didn't apologize, didn't offer any other options. Handed out menus, and a glass shattered. No apologies, just cleaned it in silence. Luckily I checked that we were celebrating a birthday when I booked so we did get a tiramisu with a sparkler, but that was the only fun part. I've definitely had more delicious food all over Chicago. Wouldn't return if it was free.

The service was phenomenal. The live music was outstanding. We were in a more private area which was nice for a birthday dinner.

Service and ambience was nice and food was all tasty. The cooking of the steak and portioning of different items left quite a bit to be desired. Chopped salad was great egg good portion, Caesar salad was good but extremely small (1/4 size of chopped). Octopus carpaccio was awesome. Filet mignon was a bit tough and cooked medium well instead of medium. Dry aged rib-eye was cooked medium well to well instead of medium rare. They offered me gluten free bread and I was given 2 pieces of previously frozen toast, which was laughable. Mushrooms were great, charred broccoli had way too much fish sauce, mashed potatoes serving was pathetically small. Cheesecake and lemon meringue were very good, chocolate cake was decent, tiramisu should be skipped. Wine list is almost all Italian with some California. Large list without a wide variety. Overall, the portions and execution of the food are not with the price. No one in our party of 6 was thrilled with dinner
The restaurant is lovely and very upscale. The food and service were fantastic. The steaks were cooked to perfection. It is pricy if you get steaks but worth it in my opinion. The only drawback for me is that they need more green side options. They only have broccoli but it was very good, I will definitely go back.

My experience at Fioretta was outstanding. It was my first time going there and I absolutely loved it. The food is delicious and worth every penny. Our server Danielle was everything you want from service industry. Overall great experience and TOP service.

Rory was our server and was impeccable! Was able to time the meal out perfectly, found us the perfect wine and was in total command of the meal - it was great!
Maria
It was an amazing dinner and the service was great! Food was delicious and their live entertainment was amazing!

Beautiful restaurant with exceptional waitstaff and service and excellent live music. The food doesn't quite live up to the standards or price tag. The Caesar salad was soggy and didn't seem made to order. Our medium filet was over cooked to well done. Truffle fries were good. Next time we'll eat at Gibson's Italia then come here for after dinner drinks and enjoy the phenomenal band.
