Really good food and great staff. We sold out the place for a family celebration. The staff was amazing and their semce of urgency was on point. Their red sauce plates are great. The salmon dish I had was great. All kinds of flavor profiles. Again thank you to the staff and the establishment owner for allowing us to celebrate.
We love love love Fiamma! Truly the most underrated restaurant in Charlotte. Every single course is incredible and the lemon gelato in between courses is such a sweet special touch. The ownership and wait staff are so incredible. So lucky to have this amazing spot so close to my home. Keep it up Fiamma - you deserve sold out nights and all the accolades.
Our server, Luis, was great, very polite and courteous. He memorized all of the specials, at least 5, in great detail and was very attentive to our table. Food was SO delicious, zero complaints. I had a special, the branzino, wow. Grilled to perfection. Seasoned perfectly. Wine was delicious as well, I tried an Italian one I wasnt familiar with and Ill be trying more next time I go. I do wish the air conditioning was on stronger. It felt quite warm inside. Also, as Im sure it has to do with staffing shortages and COVID, but our food took a really long time to come out. BUT It was worth the wait. Overall, a great experience and a come-back for sure.
The restaurant is quaint and romantic. The food options were dymanic and creative with reasonable pricing. The presentation and taste of the food did not disappoint us at all.The only down side was the limited waitstaff. They are seemingly falling victim to what many other restaurants are having trouble with and that is staffing issues. The kitchen didnt seem to be under staffed, just the dining room.
We had other plans to go somewhere in Kingsley which seems to be booming :),,, at any rate a friend did recommend it and boy did it NOT deliver! Could be bad luck, but despite manager trying hard to do some damage control! He was polite and server Enzo was a very nice guy, but plastic lid cover in my wife’s plate wasn’t a good start, then very delayed main course and stayed that kids and most of family finished their plates before I even got mine! Chicken parmigiana was ordered off menu per a friend recommendation, and was told best in town! But it’s actually the worst I have ever tasted due to oil used 100+ times? And to my total surprise manager admitted it politely that they change oils every couple of days! Cancer?!!! They didn’t charge us for it and actually went above and beyond with 4 free desserts but I DIDN’T eat and we paid 160$ for the worst evening in a restaurant in years!Politeness alone doesn’t do it!!And make no mistake! Even they haven’t charged us at all I would have rated y’all the same! This was our ANNIVERSARY WEEKEND and you simply ruined our evening! My wife was disgusted by the whole experience!It’s a shame, because it’s got the feeling of a little Authentic Restaurant we’ve experienced in Italy years ago! But not the food to back it up!!!! Or the hygiene!!The Young Truly Polite Manager said “We are very strict about COVID-19” and insisted that our 5 yo put her mask on from entrance to the table a few feet away from it :) but didn’t care to check no plastic lids in plates or to change oil every few hours!!!!
Excellent service and food. The staff was extremely attentive and friendly. Great portions of food for the price and the food was delicious. Will definitely be back!
DELICIOUS! Absolutely incredible atmosphere and insanely delicious food. Authentic service with a well rounded menu perfect for any dietary needs including a plethora of vegetarian options! What I appreciate the most is the personalized feel of this experience. Its as if you are being treated as family with food created from the sincerest place of joy! You deserve unparalleled perfection.
Delicious home made pasta. Lots of choices. Good drinks and everything else too. Nice place to dine outside
Great food, good service overall. Not super fast but I think they may have been operating on limited staff, so did a great job. Ill be back
We love this place! Hubby and I came here for our pre-marriage dinner with family and then again on the day we got married and several times after! The food here is consistently good - we always end up trying the yummy specials. The service is top notch and our favorite part is the sorbet between courses as palette cleansers. Def the best Italian spot and hidden gem in Charlotte!
Seriously bummed about what used to be my favorite restaurant in the area going so far downhill. Not only was the service completely unacceptable, the food was almost inedible. Not only was the pasta cold and gummy, the special sea bass was certainly not sea bass. I had heard of restaurants attempting to pass off various fish as more desirable species but this was blatant. When called on it, at least they had the decency not to argue but just remove it from the bill.Not only will I not return, I will definitely make sure our many friends that we have recommended this place to over the years are aware how far down it has gone.I never post reviews of any kind but this last visit was so bad....well you get the point.highly recommended you go to any other restaurant but this one.Avoid....
Food was excellent with great special choices. Very attentive service from start to finish. We enjoyed the atmosphere.
Everything was perfect. Good way to spend birthday
Its a beautiful restaurant with amazing food! My husband really wanted to pick his plate, lol. If youre looking for delicious food and a romantic time, this place is for you
Definitely a date-night sort of place for the prices. There is a very distinct smell when you walk in though, that I wasnt able to ever quite place. It wasnt pleasant, and I felt like an Italian restaurant should smell more like garlic and basil and tomatoes than...whatever that smell is. So for me that was an immediate ding.Service was friendly and very polite, but staff seemed a little disorganized or like too many people working in too small a space. We were seated at a booth-backed table facing the kitchen doors and bar where all the water pitchers sit, so not quite the ambiance one might hope for. It also seemed to be the preferred place for staff to chat as they were drying glasses, making drinks or just in between tasks.Food was hit or miss. They serve fresh bread cubes with homemade pesto with your meal, which was very good. They also served us a sorbet in-between our appetizer and main course for a pallet cleanser which was a nice touch. We were there for Restaurant Week, so there were a couple items not on their normal menu. We ordered the Burrata and the Beet Salad appetizers. The beet salad had no layered flavor at all in spite of the accompaniments. It just tasted like beets with a hint of flavor/salt from the cheese. The Burrata paired with the meat and arugula with balsamic was much better. I would recommend that one. For our main dishes, we ordered the Monk fish with mashed potatoes and asparagus which was fine, but again, nothing special (although its worth noting that the tiny scallops were cooked perfectly), and the Ribeye which came with truffle fries and arugula salad. I have to say, the steak was big (about 5-6 inches in length and about 4 inches wide) but easily the thinnest ribeye I have ever seen; it was maybe 1-inch thick *before* cooking. I ordered it medium, but what I got was almost well-done. Our server offered to have them redo it, which I accepted, and she took the steak back on an appetizer plate while I ate the arugula and truffle fries, which for us had no noticeable truffle flavor. A few minutes later, she came back by and I asked if it would be possible to get a little more truffle oil for the fries. She turned to another girl who had just walked up with a whole plate of the ribeye and sides, and said something in Spanish to her (none of the staff spoke English to each other that we heard the entire time we were there; hearing all the staff speaking Spanish in an Italian restaurant is a little comical), and the girl took the plate back in the kitchen. A few minutes later, a different person came out with that whole plate Id seen before (ribeye and sides) and set it down, taking my old plate. Major kudos for offering a whole new plate and sides! But when I said I wanted more truffle oil, I had meant for the fries on my old plate. The new fries (that I didnt realize I was getting) had been double sauced and were literally glistening with the truffle oil. I said thank you and we chuckled that we could dip our remaining bread in my fries now. I will say they were good though, and you could actually smell/taste the truffle oil that time. The new steak was a medium, so kudos on that too. Soon thereafter we moved on to our desserts. We got the Tiramisu which was very good, and the Panna Cotta which was more like thin pudding in consistency. Panna Cotta should be able to stand on its own like flan. This one could not, and was served in a ice-cream sundae glass. It was very tasty...but not a true Panna Cotta.All said and done, it was good, but neither of us felt it was worth revisiting.
They were short staffed but still provided great service. Kudos to their staff.
Great food love this place! But after CDC announced they lifted the mask mandate. They are still enforcing masks and asking for vac cards??? How can u make someone feel uncomfortable asking for personal information!
Calamari was tender. Service was good. Definitely worth it
I would say that the server, Fabrizio, was very polite and courteous. The bread and pesto were delicious! It didnt take that long when he brought my order and my husbands order first, without our daughters food.Oh, heres another mistake....my food looked delicious and I was tempted to eat, but I gotta wait for my daughters order first before eating. After a couple of minutes he came out and apologized that that was not my food so he took it from me. It was a to go order. Glad I didnt touch it. LOLWe waited for another couple of minutes for him to bring my food while my husband is already salivating at the smell of his food.Then, we asked for our daughters food so we could start eating. We had to wait for at least 10 minutes to get our daughters order. You know, it should be a policy of a restaurant to at least bring the food out almost at the same time. Its not polite to eat while others are waiting for their food.Finally, her food came. But, wait a minute......something is wrong with my food. The problem probably was the cook. I ordered Fusilli Al Tonno, but what I got was brown penne which I believe was whole-grain penne which I didnt mind. What was wrong was that it was very hot although I didnt recall having some hot chili pepper on the menu. And VERY SALTY. Imagine combining 3 salty ingredients: black olives, green olives and capers. He took it back to the kitchen while my husband and daughter continued eating. When my food arrived, they were almost finished eating. My food was still spicy and salty, so I decided to just take it home.The probably realized their mistake, so they gave us 2 free desserts and apologized. So, whats the score? I dont know, maybe 4 for Fabrizio and 2 for the chef? By the way, their creme brulee and panna cotta were delicious. However, we still gave Fabrizio more 17% tip.
Absolutely LOVED this place! My friend and I went there for the first time. We ordered the salmon and black pasta, and Tirimasu and creme brulee for desserts. The Tirimasu was much larger than expected. We both finished only half of it. We spent about 2 hours there. The service was a bit slow, but the food was very tasty and obviously fresh, which explains the waiting time. Totally worth the wait, I would just plan for it next time. P.S, must try the Moscato (Apricot, Fig, and Orange)!
Awesome service and their food is excellent. They’ve made some upgrades recently that have been a great touch as well. Great for date night, family, or friends.
This is the first time in my life I walked out of a restaurant before being served. We were all dressed up for date night. When we walked in, we weren’t greeted. We didn’t see many people inside- only one man behind the bar, and one family in the corner eating dinner. I thought “well, this is odd”. This was around 6pm, a normal meal time. The man behind the bar looked at us several times but never acknowledged us. We decided to wait 5 minutes, and if we hadn’t been sat or greeted in 5, we would head out. No one ever acknowledged us, so we left. Again- this was not due to the place being busy. It was dead. It felt like no one worked there.
Rehearsal dinner was a wonderful and authentic culinary success! Thank you for the great service, dishes, and overall experience.
The food was good. Calamari was very tasty, although in a small portion. The setting was authentic and had a cozy atmosphere.The service was decent but the food took forever. The staff told us that they were understaffed that one night but it has happened a few times now..Would recommend going on a slow night
This is one of the best Italian restaurants I’ve been to in North Carolina. The atmosphere makes you feel like you are in Italy... LET ALONE FOOD! Fantastic staff. It’s a great place to go in Charlotte if you want a taste of Italy!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
Fiammas is an excellent Italian restaurant in the Dilworth neighborhood of Charlotte. Had dinner there for the first time last night. Valentines day 2019. We started with the Buratta a delicious appetizer that consist of buffalo cheese prosciutto arugula and eggplant and stuffed mushrooms on top of grilled shrimp. Both were delicious! Ate them so fast forgot to take a pic. For entre we both had the Branzino. This dish is grilled Mediterranean Sea Bass, buttery Scallops, delicious grilled shrimp, pasta and spinach. Oh the Branzino!!!! It was amazing! For dessert we had a ricotta cheesecake with raspberries. Also amazing!! The staff is friendly and picked a fantastic wine to complement our dinner choices. Overall a great place for a nice dinner with a loved one or for a casual dinner with friends.
Best Italian food Ive had in a very long time!!!
I’ve been here a number of times for dinner. It’s a perfect special occasion spot; the food is amazingly flavorful, the staff is friendly, and there’s a nice ambiance. I’ve never had a bad— or even average— meal there. It’s always been fantastic!
The food was amazing, the dessert is amazing, everything is homemade, and the manager was the only one serving everyone but the service was still exceptional! Very impressive.
Amazing service and amazing food.
I am not sure how this restaurant has any positive reviews. I went to Fiamma for dinner last night with a party of 10 people. I have never in my life had a more terrible and just absurd experience at a restaurant. The service was absolutely horrible. I understand restaurants are possibly understaffed now, but the restaurant was more than half empty so there was not an issue of the staff being overwhelmed or too busy. We were at dinner for 3 solid hours and not by choice. Our server seemed to be in no rush and completely unaware of the fact he was responsible for serving our table. He was folding silverware and setting up tables for the next day instead of taking our order, refilling our drinks, etc. We were seated for over 30 minutes before we even had our drink order taken. After I finished my cocktail, I was never asked if I wanted another one during the next 2 hours. The manager was more concerned with enforcing the mask mandate and taking temperatures than with helping his struggling server. We got there at 7pm and did not get our food until after 9pm. I finally got up and asked the manager to help us with drink refills, service, etc. after watching him sit at the bar and play on his phone for an extended period of time. He was terribly rude at this time. Aside from the service, all of the food was incredibly bland and not at all worth the price. I would have enjoyed Olive Garden 10 times more than this. I literally did not eat my food because it was so awful. The cocktails were terrible, food was terrible, service was like nothing Ive ever experienced. Not to mention they were completely out of beer, merlot, and quite a few other items. There was no apology or even acknowledgement of any of these issues. For the sake of your time and money, do not go to Fiamma. Go to Portofinos, Intermezzo, Zios, or Mama Ricottas. Those places will give you the quality and attention a paying customer deserves.
Best Italian food you will get in Charlotte... hands down! The staff goes above and beyond to make sure your customer experience is outstanding. Definitely recommend to come as soon as you can!! You will not be disappointed!
Elegant dining with incredible Italian dishes. The wait staff was very courteous, and responsive to every need.
I had a to go order. The portions were very generous and the food all was delicious. As I waited for the food just inside the door it was obvious that the management was taking the covid situation seriously. Patrons were spaced out by plenty of distance and I watched people being turned away while the empty tables between full sat empty. That has to be very hard for an owner to do....but I digress. I have been going to Fiama for years and can never recall a bad meal. This is a place you go to take your time, relax and enjoy a hearty meal.
I had never heard of Fiamma despite being a Charlotte Native. A friend suggested we meet there for dinner one night because in her opinion it is the best Italian food in Charlotte. I TOTALLY agree. Everything from the service, food, and atmosphere was perfect. Everything was so good I forgot to take any pictures except for the reasonable priced wine!
Very authentic food. Great service. One of my favorite restaurants to eat at. We have tried to find better pasta in Charlotte but cant find it. Have spent more money elsewhere but not as good. PLEASE give them a try!
The most amazing food and service ever! A truly special family owned restaurant!
Fiamma was one of the first restaurants I visited when moving to Charlotte ten years ago and it is still one of my favorites. I choose to eat there on my birthday every year and have eaten there on Valentines Day, New Years Eve and many other nights just because! Even though I have moved away from the Dilworth neighborhood, we still drive to Dilworth to eat at Fiamma because of the delicious food and wonderful experiences with the staff. I have never had anything other than a delightful experience there. They have something for everyone.. I love their pasta but my husband gets the lamb or pork chop and we both love the Fiamma Salad! We got take out from there during Covid and were very impressed with how seriously they are taking pandemic protocols. The tables were very spaced out and the staff were all in masks (and wearing them properly). We are very cautious but will be visiting soon because they are clearly taking the safety of their staff and patrons seriously. The takeout was delicious but we are looking forward to eating there in person again soon!
This restaurant is absolutely amazing! Probably one of the best in North Carolina! The food was absolutely delicious, staff is fantastic and so friendly!! A place definitely worth trying!!! 👍🏻
Great service and beautiful ambiance. No trouble parking. They prepare delicious cuisines with excellent presentation. Thank you Kristi & Luigi for being attentive and proving great reccomendations.
I cannot believe that in 2020, Black people have to eat in the back!!! The first we ate here, the restaurant was nearly empy, they seated us in the back. This time there was nobody was in the restaurant, still they told us we have to be in the back. This is a pattern for this place. All the White people after us were in the front. They need to put a sign White only so we Black people know were not welcome. Weve come too far to accept this type of discrimination.
What a hidden gem! Ive always had an amazing experience here, and during the pandemic has been no different. Since theyre a family-owned restaurant and all live under one roof, they take the health of both staff and customers very seriously. Not to mention, the food is the best Italian in the city. They also have some covered patio tables if you prefer to dine outside. Highly recommend!
Our experience from start to finish was excellent. Luigi was friendly, attentive and amazing. The food, especially the gnocchi, took me straight back to my favourite ristorante in Sienna, Italy. If I lived in Charlotte this would be my date night, out with friends nite, special occasion, all the things night out spot. You cant go wrong with anything on the menu!!
Incredibly delicious food, great waitstaff!
I am confused about how this place has such rave reviews. I came here with a party of 6 on Saturday night. The place was operating at half capacity due to covid restrictions. Even at half capacity, it wasn’t full.First of all, I like how you can call the restaurant number and get the manager directly even outside of restaurant hours. He isn’t the friendliest person to talk to though. I also like how you can text the number to communicate with the manager. He was very quick and helpful when responding.We had reservations and were seated immediately upon arrival. We ordered drinks first thing and it took no less than 10 minutes to receive them. I ordered a simple lemonade from the fountain. When it came time to order food, the waitress reviewed the “specials” and most of us were sold on them immediately. I chose the Chilean Sea Bass special served with fried artichokes, spaghetti squash and asparagus. I asked the waitress to hold the asparagus since I don’t like it. She told me that I can’t sub it since they are “short staffed due to covid”. Interestingly, one of my friends was able to add a whole chicken breast to his pasta which only came with shrimp according to the menu. (This is important: my friends ordered a side of Alfredo sauce when we placed our food order.) My plate arrived with asparagus anyway. Not a major deal since I could just not eat it. My food was room temperature at best which was confusing because a they acted like I would burn myself if I touched the plate. And the food took so long to come out - it should have been piping hot. Slow service was the theme for the evening. Back to the food. The fish was cooked nicely and tasted pretty good. The fried artichokes tasted oil-soaked. The spaghetti squash was tasteless and this is usually something I enjoy. I asked the waitress for a side of Alfredo sauce to help the squash. Remember that side of sauce that my friends ordered? They hadn’t received it yet and by now, we’ve had the food for at least 5 minutes . The waitress said the sauce was cooked to order - at least theirs should have been ready since they ordered it when we placed the food order. So at least 10 more minutes after we received the food, all three orders of sauce came out. We were nearly done with our food by the time it arrived. I’m no master chef, but I do make Alfredo sauce from scratch pretty regularly at home. This sauce was basically a bowl of cream with melted butter and powdered Parmesan cheese dumped on top. Not what I expected from an authentic Italian restaurant. Definitely not how I make mine. We all finished our food and agreed that it was decent, but not worth returning for. It took what seemed like an eternity to receive the bill and everyone at the table was shocked at the price tag. The “special” was $38. Now I didn’t expect anything cheap based on other menu items, but nothing on the menu was over $25. I did not receive a $38 sized piece of fish nor was the flavor of anything on my dish worth that. The drinks were all on the wrong tickets but we just decided to pay and reimburse each other later as needed because we figured it might take another 30 minutes to get the tickets sorted. It seemed as though there was only one waitress servicing the entire restaurant. Another issue I had, automatic 20% gratuity was included. Most restaurants I visit do this for parties of 8 or more and they provide you this in a disclaimer up front.There are other authentic Italian spots in town with great service and delicious food. Luce comes to mind..I wish i had noticed before visiting that most of the one and two star reviews are within the past two years. Of course those weren’t showing near the top. By
A favorite location for tasty italian food. Cool place to meet and catch up with coworkers. Bring your hunger - portions are filling.
This was one of the best restaurants I’ve been to. The food was fantastic, our server was very attentive and friendly and the atmosphere is really great. Highly recommend
Amazing food. The cognac sauce was the best alfredo Ive ever tasted.They also give you focaccia with a pesto that was amazing.The only negative is that theyre very slow on coming out with courses, so make sure you arent in a rush.
The Chilean sea bass was exceptional!
After a very awkward start (our reserved table was given away minutes before we arrived) we were finally seated, then after waiting 10 minutes for someone to come to the table our waiter arrived and to say the least Ricardo made our evening. He couldn’t apologize enough and was graciously attentive for the rest of our stay. Food was delicious, service was excellent and we all (6 of us) had a wonderful time.We will be back!
My bff and I stumbled up this gem. Quaint, quiet and wasnt sure what to expect. Some of the best, yummiest Italian dishes we have ever had. The pesto dipping sauce was to die for. Fantastuc service. When in the area...it is a must.
Food and service were both terrific.
One of the best Italian restaurants in Charlotte... a fine place for a celebration... had a great mothers day with my family.. perfect place for a family or a romantic lunch/dinner or even a girls day out... the waiters were very friendly, continuously checking on us...Will definitely go back again...
Great food, my wife loves their food. That homemade pesto is amazing.
We had a group of 7 people for lunch. We had great experiences there for dinner in the past. But I cannot recommend for lunch. There was only one waitress and apparently one person in the kitchen for the whole restaurant. Consequently service was slow and we ended up spending a lot more time there than we had thought. Lunch dishes were OK and we got complimentary sherbet at the end. However, it did not make up for the mediocre experience
Ordered through seamless, and it was a perfect meal! Especially the Lamb Chops, they’re amazing!
Love this place. Little slow but life is to short to rush good food.
Incredible Italian Food and smells like your grandma is in the back cooking a sauce thats taken her all day long. Every time my wife says, Where do you want to go to dinner? I typically just say, We havent been to Fiamma this month.
Hands Down Best Italian In Charlotte.Excellent service from all servers, food is cooked to order.From the very first bite, you know it’s homemade all the way.Just the right portions throughout,The homemade desserts are a great compliment to the main course.The Lemoncello for finale clean the pallete perfectly.What an Great experience too to bottom.Also met the Owner Fernando,He really made us feel like family!
My boyfriend and I went here for the first time during Charlotte Restaurant week and it was absolutely amazing! The food came out quick, hot, and was delicious. Everyone worked as a team and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our time here. We will definitely be coming back and I recommend this place to everyone!
Simply awesome!!! In town from Atlanta on business and chose this establishment based on the reviews and our entire party raved over their dinner.Thanks Mark!! The food and Pomegranate Martini’s were top notch.See ya next time.....
This is my second time here and its been a while between visits. I must say the food here is consistent, consistently very good! I believe the pasta here is all home made or at least made with fresh pasta, and the dishes are nothing like a pizza joints Italian food. Price wise its a little bit expensive but not like youre going to have to sell a kidney to buy dinner.
We had a 6:30 reservation and we ordered 10 minutes after we sat but waited a while for food, and the server was great, the food was delicious but it took so long to for the server to get back to us when we needed something. After we had eaten desert we waited 15 minutes for the waiter to show up but never returned so we manually gave him our card for the bill, and then we left the restaurant at 8:50. Food was very good, service was very slow.
Incredible hole in the wall serving high class, authentic Italian food!
The best Italian taste and a great service 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
One of the best Italian restaurants in Charlotte. Definitely more of a date night as far as pricing, but it never disappoints. I love how they give you complimentary sorbet between courses.
Best Italian in Charlotte. Our server was super knowledgeable of menu and very accommodating.I loved everything except the Caesar salad. I was expecting a more traditional take on it. But this is my Italian go to place from now on.
We celebrated our cousins birthday who was in town. We both had veal with gnocchi and a mushroom sauce. I had a side order of spinach. We got a bottle of the house Pinot noir. Coming from a family who makes their own homemade gnocchi, this was the best gnocchi we have ever had at a restaurant. Great food, great wait staff. Definitely would go again.
First time visit with Queens Fest going on. Good variety of selections with great flavor. Service was very good. Friendly am attentive. We were there on Sunday evening soon after opening. Still a busy place during our dinner.
This place is really amazing! The foods are very delicious. It is a perfect one for our taste.
The only reason Im giving two stars instead of one is because the food was pretty good.However, inside it was way too warm. I eventually had to put my hair up because my neck was sweating so bad.The food took forever. We were inside for almost 2 hours before we finally got our main course.Its incredibly cramped. I had to crawl out of the booth on my knees to get around my friends to use the restroom. Not the experience I was hoping for. My suggestion is to go on a Monday or do take out and avoid the restaurant all together.
Loved it! Great wine and fresh, excellent food. Dont be in a hurry, just relax and you will be rewarded with authentic Italian cuisine. Budget about $25 per person and you will do fine. I will be back.
Great food, excellent wine list and generous portions. Wait staff is attentive and knowledgeable. Also, very reasonably priced: Had 3 drinks, a salad and two entrees for around a benjamin. Highly recommend.
First time there. My wife and I both enjoyed our 2 different veal specials at $35. There are many mid teen to low $20 regular menu items we will try in future. Wait staff very professional, dont be in a rush. Only negative is tables are close together you can hear conversations (and vice versa I am sure) at the tables next to you. We do recommend trying.
Great place if you want to try some Italian cuisine I loved that I had the chance to bring my youtube show to review this restaurant I have and will continue recommended this place to all my family and friends they have great service and the restaurant looks amazing I even talked to customers that been coming here forever and they always seem to enjoy themselves
June and Yoshi are the two best waiters in Charlotte, hands down. There is no better homemade Italian food in the Southeast than at Fiamma. Great specials every night but you cant go wrong with any pasta from the menu.
Fabulous Italian eatery. Wonderful service, ever-changing menu and distinct family atmosphere make this a mainstay in Charlotte restaurant choices for us!
I can’t believe I haven’t given this place a chance before now. Great staff and fantastic food
Best Queens feast option in the city. The chefs here give you numerous options from their menu. Which is the problem figuring out what to eat. Not overcrowded or hurried which some restaurants tend to do during the feast week. Excellent creative food and standards. Make this a go to anytime. Highly recommend.
More people should know about this amazing little spot. Without question some of the best Italian in Charlotte. Prices are a bit higher than your average place but the quality is totally worth it. Wish I could afford to eat here more often.
Absolutely amazing! We sat out on the patio since it was a lovely night out and still had prompt service. We chatted with our waiter, one of the owners sons, and he told us that it was a family owned business that theyve had for 13 years, which is just the kind of place that I love! The food was fantastic, though not a lot of vegetarian options. Plenty of pescatarian though! The pasta is delicious and homemade, the sauce is obviously made with fresh tomatoes and herbs. The staff were all very helpful and friendly and knew the menu like the back of their hands! If you ARE vegetarian, be careful, the pesto that they bring out with the bread right away does have anchovies in it, so not vegetarian. Once we explained though they were super helpful and even made some really good menu suggestions! At the end of our meal they brought us some AMAZING tiramisu. It was rich while still nice and fluffy and lightweight. Fantastic drink selection, alcoholic and non. Overall a great way to end our time in Charlotte!
Good food casual dining and welcoming server. Nice spot I found on Your704.
Excellent dining experience. Good food, fair prices, nice atmosphere, but not fussy. Very good value.
Visited this place on charlotte restaurant week and it was the best choice ever. The food was oh my goodness can I get more good. Definitely will be coming back and the atmosphere was nice a quaint very intimate.
My husband and I just went back after 6 years, and it was just good as we remembered!Started with the scallop special. The scallops were cooked completely fine, but the cauliflower puree was sooooo good.I had a mushroom risotto special with scallops and shrimp. Very tasty. Definitely enough for leftovers if you filled up on bread and got an appetizer. He got the gnocchi with sausage and peas. Must have had a lot of flavor because I could smell it on him the rest of the night, haha.Service is attentive, prices are more than fair, atmosphere is cozy. Great choice if you want a hearty, authentic Italian experience :)
