After reading the reviews were looking forward to trying this restaurant. Despite saying this was an Italian restaurant there was no pasta offered for lunch. I had the chicken parm which was good but nothing special. Hubby had the breakfast burrito which was 99% potato, with a touch of zucchini and onion. If there was egg in there we blinked and missed it. Had asked the waiter what was in the burrito and he indicated green pepper,, had we known it was zucchini we never would have ordered it Water on the table when seated which was warm and it took forever for the waiter to bring the ice we asked for. One server for the whole restaurant so service was spotty. All in all if you are looking for Italian this is not the place to go, at least for lunch. Doubt we'll be back

First time getting Florabella for lunch. Food was good, but service was amazing. Our server, Zane, was attentive, kind and offered great recommendations. If I could give him 6 stars I would.

Completely unwelcoming. Service animals also unwelcoming. Not sure what to call the hostess (or host) - sir or ma’am. Very disappointed as we heard great things.

Just imagine, living next to what used to be an amazing café only for it to turn into this. They hate the neighborhood and to be honest everybody in the neighborhood who actually hates it too.

It’s a gorgeous space and a great vibe with attentive and professional staff.
Food is fresh and outstanding with simple recipes, so I’m sure it’s repeatable service to service.
I don’t want to deny the experiences of others, but this is my candidate for restaurant that deserves much higher reviews.

Gave this place a 2nd chance. Politely asked that chef go easy on the salting, since last visit couldn't eat the Rigatoni due to OVER-SALTING. Didn't like the Montepuciano red. Tasted old. The meatballs in ricotta and tomato sauce with garlic toast were super yummy. The arugula salad delicious. However, like last time the rigatoni was wayyyyy oversalted. AGAIN. The meat pizza tasted like SALT. The chef uses wayy too much SALT. Like the chef dumped a whole container of Morton SALT in the sauce. Entrees not edible. Desserts were predictable, nothing new. Nice atmosphere.Great Music. Lovely server from Oxford, Mississippi.

This is our favorite breakfast buffet. The highlight each time is Mr. Oden at the Omelette bar. Best omelette around but a far better human being. So joyful and makes our breakfast experience fantastic!
Exceptional staff and delicious food. The margarita pizza stands out, but everything was great.

I don’t eat pasta that often and hadn’t had Italian food in years but this place completely won me over. We went for date night and from the moment we arrived I was impressed. The building is absolutely beautiful, contemporary, warm, and inviting with a great atmosphere that set the tone for the evening.
We started with their lavender butter and fresh bread which was such a fun and delicious surprise. Subtle, floral, and super creamy. But the real stars were the pasta dishes. My date had the rotini plate and I went with the bucatini. Both were extraordinary. The sauces were incredibly flavorful, layered, balanced, and clearly made with care. You could taste the thought and quality in every bite.
If you’re craving Italian that feels fresh, creative, and made with love this spot is absolutely worth checking out.

What an absolute gem of a find! Missoula has been impressing me with its small town feel, access to absolutely everything outdoors, and some of the most amazing restaurants! Tonight we tried Florabella because as we passed by on our way to rent mountain bikes we saw the market lights on the patio and thought we want to go there! It is set in an older building so has the charm of an old brick façade but inside it's modern and fun! (see my interior photos attached) Our waitress was McKayla and she did a great job helping us narrow down our selections... One of the fun things we learned about this restaurant is that they have an offer where you can get a pasta, a pizza, two glasses of wine and two movie tickets to the local theater for $40! (Not sure if this is an ongoing special or if it was just for this week) The food here is amazing...all the pasta and pizza crusts are made fresh from scratch in house! And they have a really nice wine list! Tonight I had the arugula salad while my husband had the Caesar as starters. We had a hard time deciding what to have for dinner so we ended up sharing the Conchiglie and the Funghi pizza... and finished off with a chocolate dessert! It was a lot of food, but it was so delicious! I highly recommend this restaurant if you're in Missoula. It is a little bit outside of town but well worth the drive! (as in everything in Missoula is about a 5 to 10 minute drive if you're not right downtown)
