    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.

    The food is some of the best I’ve ever had. The BLT— you wouldn’t expect that mix of flavors— is unbelievable, 100/10. The tuna tostada is so delicious that we had to order more because we couldn’t get enough. The shrimp baos are amazing, and the drinks are great. Super fun vibe! Prices are excellent. Now I know why everybody is talking about Little Donkey.
