Fiore Caffe Reviews

My husband and I had a very disappointing experience at Fiore Restaurant and would not recommend it. We ordered two plates to share--a salad and a main. The radicchio salad with prosciutto was very disappointing . It needed a dressing and the prosciutto was extremely salty and thick so it was very difficult to cut and eat. There was one small piece of pear and a small dollop of cheese but we left most of the salad uneaten. The main was two skewers of prawns--4 prawns in total with onion, red pepper, and cherry tomato. There was nothing special about this dish--bland, uninteresting --no spices or marinade. The best part were the roasted potatoes. Whenwe were asked about our meal we shared our feelings in what we thought was a constructive manner. Our waiter took it badly and said quite abruptly: "I don't think this restaurant is to your liking." We left with a bad taste. We will not return.

We met some friends near Mission Street for an early evening function and they recommended Fiore Cafe since they took reservations and it was a Friday night. After a short walk up from Mission Street, we were quickly seated and enjoyed a delicious Italian meal with great wine and friendly service. The menu is small but very reasonable.

My wife and I were wandering around San Francisco looking for a quaint and low key restaurant to have a leisurely brunch when we we came upon Fiore Cafe, a French Cafe with a lovely menu that looked like it had been recently printed. My wife ordered a 3 egg omelette with caramelized onions, spinach and freshly roasted potatoes as I had Eggs Benedict with smoked salmon and a salad. Everything we ate was excellent and I’d be going back tomorrow except we are flying back to NY!

I was very impressed by the quality of the food and decor at this small cafe tucked away in the Mission district. The menu featured an assortment of egg dishes, each including potatoes and a green salad. I ordered the gluten free Eggs Benedict with bacon, no potatoes, and extra salad greens. The gluten free substitution for the typical English muffin was a slice of pan-roasted tomato. My meal was close to perfection (I would have preferred the yolks runnier). The herbed bechamel was perfect and in right proportion to the eggs. The bacon was thick and browned sufficiently to bring out its flavor. The pan-roasted tomato complimented the bacon,egg, and bechamel. The large mixed green salad with light vinagrette balanced the richness of the egg dish. The flavors of this dish really came together. My Americano was very good as well. As for decor, I liked the thick wooden tables and the large, tastefully appointed bathroom. Well done!

We stayed at Noe's Nest down the street and wanted to eat somewhere very close to it! It was outstanding! We had a lovely burrata and arugula salad followed by mussels with homemade fettuccine. The ambiance, service and food was far better than that of Bacco which is in the heart of Noe Valley (on 24th Street).

A pearl and oasis of Italien hospitality in Frisco. The menu card is small but the dishes are delicious and prepared freshly every day. The service is extremely cute. We were there several times during our stay in Frisco and it was always a perfect experience! The Fiore Caffee is also a great place to go with children / family - they are warmly welcome there!

I was there with one of my friend. We shared a delicious bruschetta and have grilled salmon with vegetables which was very taste. Wine list is very interesting, we had a fresh Sicilian wine which matched perfectly with the fish. Eduardo, the owner, from Naples is friendly and really nice. Desserts were also great. I highly recommend Fiore cafè, a place you can go at any time and feel at home. Besides, the neighborhood is beautiful!

My wife, baby boy and I recently stopped in on our trip to SF. It's a cute little corner cafe with a nice buzz early in the morning. A fresh and healthier lean on their menu. Although I ended up picking one of their more unhealthy items. An amazing eggs Benedict with bacon and country potatoes on the side. Also came with a fresh green salad and a light vinaigrette. Coffee was delicious and service was great. If we're ever in the area again, we will definitely stop in.

I came to Fiore twice in a week for dinner. Food is so good that I can't wait to go back again. Also the best spritz I had outside Italy.

Great espresso in a cute corner cafe. I did not order the food, but it looked fresh in the baker casing. Nice owner and quality coffee options.

While a bit off the beaten track , we found this restaurant well worth a visit . The cooking was simple country fare , although perhaps some of the dishes were a bit unimaginative .

I stopped here for coffee and cake on two occasions and loved the decor and delicious food. The outdoor tables trap the sun and the interior is beautifully presented and restful. A great spot for meeting friends or just taking time out for yourself. Great Italian coffee and a good menu and wine list.

Really cute little cafe, perfect for a leisurely Sunday brunch. Not too crowded as it's tucked a few blocks away from the busy parts of the Mission. (Not sure what it's like on Saturdays, so may be best to make a reservation, which is easy to do online.) Authentic European feel as the staff and owner are European as well. My friends and I ordered the: steak and eggs, spinach omelette, fish sandwich, and tomato soup. Everything looked great and tasted it too. Prices are also reasonable. Definitely worth returning to try some of their other items.

Just got into town staying down the block at an Airbnb....it was delicious, delicious and did I say delicious! Portions perfect!

This small cafe is a treasure in an off the path neighborhood. My dining companion and I each had the tomato mozzarella pesto on French bread sandwich. Accompanied by a salad and fresh fruit, the food was delicious and filling. The restaurant is not large, but it is bright and quaint. Service was quick and the price reasonable. Parking is street parking.

This was my second visit to Fiori Caffe for a business brunch in the Mission. The food was delicious and the presentation was fresh and lovely. The service was friendly, fast and polite. The restaurant was very clean and the decor trendy. The ambiance was quiet for a normal conversation, important for a business breakfast or lunch. However, they offer only one vegan-friendly entree:( They really should have a few more options to keep up with a growing number of people with vegan preferences for eating healthy in San Francisco.

We dined here with family including our 2 year old grandson . We dined early as to not disturb other diners. The food was authentic, delicious and they even prepared a little plate of pasta for the baby. The wine list was commendable. A great place for casual, easy Italian food!

Come with time. Very cute and different place. One of the best Bloody Mary i have ever tried! Delish. Mouth-watering. Eggs and smoked salmon salad worth the huge waiting queue.

The place is small and the sound is not the best, but the food and wonderful wines, and service make up for the sound. As an Italian, it's rare that I eat out (in Italian Restaurant) here in the US, but what they have done with the food is delicious.

I loved the atmosphere of this restaurant and I liked that the wine list had mostly Italian wines. It's refreshing to have a change of pace from California wines sometimes, and an Italian restaurant is just the place for it. The burrata cheese appetizer was lovely, as was the bread and oil served. The pasta with ragu was great, although the pasta was a little over-cooked for my preference. The Brussels sprouts were yummy, but a bit over-cooked. The steak dish that arrived did not look appealing to me so I didn't try it. I liked my arugula and fennel salad. The salad with seafood was quite disappointing though, as all the seafood on it was so over cooked as to be almost inedible, and there wasn't much fish on it, but that's sort of typical I guess since fish is so costly. The room has beautiful furniture and has lots of light from large windows. It is very annoying that the lights in the bathroom are so dim that I couldn't see in the mirror to apply lipstick. When looking at other reviews after I ate there, it seems like many people enjoy the brunch. I might come back for that to try again because it was such a pleasant place to be. Something curious I found when reading the reviews written in Italian is that the Italians felt the food to be quite authentic. My feeling was that the ragu was indeed, but the other dishes were definitely what I experience as Italian food in the US, but not plates that I've actually ever seen in Italy. But of course the Italians themselves would know about that better than I would. Overall, I think I'd try it again, but I wasn't particularly impressed by the food, and I thought it was pricey. But that's San Francisco for you, I suppose. It was definitely a lovely place to spend an evening.

You could eat every meal here and not be unhappy. VERY reasonable, traditional Italian, and excellent. We had dinner once, lunch once, breakfast once. A gem of a place. Located at the corner of Guerrera and 24th 415 642 4822.

The mission district of San Fran has this quaint Mediterranean Resturant. Very nice menu and wonderful service. The quiche of the day was zucchini with a fresh salad and fruit. The omelets offered fresh vegetables to the spicy sausage. The coffee varieties were excellent. The environment is exceptionally friendly. Enjoy-

Have been aware of this place for some time now, and only last night visited. I've been missing out. Staff excellent, food even better. Simple, well prepared Italian fare. Flying under the radar somewhat but well worth a visit.

Very nice atmosphere, quiet, stylish, personable, cozy. Vegetarian options and flexibility to take out the meat in other dishes. Everything mostly home made, delicious bread and pesto to whet the appetite. The main dish was awesome, eggplant stuffed pasta. Would go back for sure. Strongly recommended!

I have often walked by this corner spot on 24th and Guerrero St just over the hill from Noe Valley. The big windows allow light to shine in on the cozy cafe. My husband and I often look for small places to try for our Wednesday date nights. The host/waiter/service person was friendly and efficient. We chose a table along a window to take advantage of the busy corner viewing. Always fun to people watch while we enjoyed a nice rosé that was very reasonably priced. We tend to order and split our meals, so we started with the Arugula salad which was fresh and delicious. The Pappardelle special was cooked to perfection and as someone not too fond of mushrooms it was just enough flavor. The Salmon al Limone was cooked perfectly and delicious as well. We will definitely keep this place as a repeat with the fresh food, personable staff and reasonable prices.

excellent food and fine recipes. friendly staff. you can drink fine Italian wines and more. relaxed environment

This place has the ambiance of a neighborhood place that one could return to many times. Small and intimate but bright given the large windows. Food was very fresh and portion size was good. Very nice staff.

On a Sunday, aroud noon, we came for a brunch. Plates were ok, but what was announced as "Benedicte eggs" was a pale imitation of the real receipe. For sure the Chef knows very well what a Benedicte is, and therefore it looks like a fraud. More unpleasant, glasses were stinking. The kind of smell you get when the glasses are "washed" in a dirty used water. And that is horrible. Staff is friendly, fortunatly! But the management should rething the quality control.

We had a good Italian dinner in a quiet atmosphere. We ordered a salmon main course, roquefort gnocchi and arancino. Everything delicious and the service was very good. We definitely plan to come back.

We went to this unassuming cafe twice in the few days we were in San Francisco for brunch - defo a hidden gem. Looks quite unassuming from outside, but has a really nice athmosphere. All the food is freshly prepared and is to die for. The two guys who work (own?) the place were really friendly, gave us lots of advice on travelling into the City and then remembered us when we went back 3 days later and asked us all about our trip - very impressed. This is on the corner of 24th and Guarrano (probably wrong spelling) - please put it on your list to visit when in the Noe Valley.
