    We had an amazing experience celebrating a birthday party with 12 guests! The atmosphere was lively and welcoming, and the service was top-notch. Our server, Cherly, was absolutely on point—attentive, friendly, and made sure everything ran smoothly. The drinks and food were fantastic, with generous portions and fair pricing. Highly recommend for any special occasion or just a great night out!

    We had a wonderful dining experience during our post valentine celebration with some friends. We have been wanting to try FiorItaly for some time and we were not disappointed. Wait staff was excellent, even though it was a busy Saturday evening she did not rush us. Food was excellent and you could tell everything was made to order. If you like a fresh Italian meal and don’t wish to head into the city I would suggest giving FiorItaly a try.

    We had a great time Bistro5 on Valentine’s Day. As expected they were packed so and everyone was working hard, great vibes. Service was friendly and courteous. We went for the special tasting menu with wine pairings. There were two choices for each course so we had one of each and everything was excellent. This is one of few places I’ve been that I would be comfortable putting myself in the chef’s hands.
