Il Fiore

We had a bridal shower here and it all worked out great and I would have another event here But here are tips for anyone thinking about doing the same: Pros: -price is amazing. Food was great. Amazing natural light. Attentive staff. No cake cutting fee. Awesome menu for something like a shower. BYO which keeps the cost low. Cons -we were told the big room fits 110 people…My honest opinion? We had 70 people and we fit like a glove. Just enough room to display the cake in the back, a tight set up for a backdrop for pictures and a set up for gifts. Had we landed on thr 100 we thought we might have… i would have been upset. I truly say — dont do a shower here if it’s over 75🤷🏻‍♀️ -no use of the foyer as it was used for two lunch tables. The back had another big party.

Just had a shower here. They were absolutely amazing and super accommodating! The food was out of this world. The service was so good!! I highly recommend them for any special event or even a nice dinner out.

Underwhelming to say the least. We were taken to our table on time once arriving for our reservation time of 545pm. We were sat in the back dining room that was overcrowded. The music playing was so loud, causing guests to speak over it, leading to the small dining room being very loud. Our server was friendly, but was not very attentive due to be double sat (he received two tables back to back that needed his attention at the same time, leaving our table with little attention). My husband ordered the pasta seafood special and was not impressed. The sauce tasted like it came out of a can and the scallops were overcooked, leaving them rubbery. My salad was soaked in dressing, but my filet was delicious and cooked perfectly to temperature. Mashed potatoes were lacking flavor and mixed vegetables were cold. The lobster bisque and gnocchi that my in-laws ordered were very good from their remarks. My gelato tasted freezer burnt. For a restaurant that has such a long wait, you would expect the food to taste better. I feel like these are easy fixes so hopefully this review is taken into consideration.

Best experience this place has well trained wait staff and the food was excellent. I'm a South Jersey born and raised but moved to Delaware. I plan to return to have another excellent meal and evening. Also the atmosphere was excellent good lighting each table had an adjustable light white table cloths and elegant setting. This restaurant had high standards and pride in their craft. Thank you for providing the community with your offerings.

Nice restaurant with a very authentic Italian feel. The food was good and the service as well, though we did wait extremely long to pay. The place was pretty full, which is the sign of a good restaurant, but the noise level was too loud. Coupled with a small table, it made for a less than perfect night, but we'll definitely give it another try.

I never write reviews but I just wanted to highlight the amazing hostess, Gia! My boyfriend and I went on Valentine’s Day and this place was PACKED! Gia absolutely killed it managing every party coming in. She was so efficient, kind, and attentive despite how many people were in the building. Get this girl a raise! Overall we had a great experience! Due to a holiday, the wait was a little long even with a reservation but that’s expected!

The food was delicious and the atmosphere was grand! Very clean bathrooms too which is very important to me. The manager was so kind and generous and our waiter was great too. They made our Mothers Day quite special and a splendid experience!!

I cannot recommend this restaurant enough! I made a reservation for 10 people which was so easy and hassle free. The wait staff was very helpful, respectful and impressive. The food was out of this world and we had an amazing time celebrating my engagement with family. The restaurant is BYOB and they put our bottles in ice (I've been to restaurants that did not do that) so it was a nice surprise for me. The atmosphere was pleasant, all around a great spot. We will definitely be coming back!

Had a delicious impromptu dinner here Tuesday night with some very good friends. I was able to make reservation 30 min prior to arrival. My friends got there first and early. I had trouble finding parking and fighting with parkmobile app, but I digress. Even being 15-20 min early they were seated right away. Usually one might wonder why a restaurant had an open table even on a Tuesday. It could indicate issues. Im glad to say it was the total opposite. The restaurant is quaint reminds me of tv mafia italian places complete with murals on the walls and white table cloths. The service was 10/10 our waiter patiently explained the specials in a way that made me want to try them all, even the ones I was allergic to. The black pasta with shrimp would have killed me but it sounded and looked delicious. My friend ordered it and she loved it. I had the Involltini de Pollo. Fantastic! We ordered the fried squash flowers which was a popular appetizer because we got the last one. It was battered fried and stuffed with mozzarella cheese. Very tasty, the batter was light and crispy. The best part was dessert Dark side of the moon chocolate cake. It was rich and decadent the three of us shared a slice. My greedy lil heart had the chocolate gelato as well. I left full and happy. Side note I accidentally left my keys on the chair next to me and our waiter caught up with us with them. I could have hugged him because it would have been a long walk to my car and back. I definitely will be back.

I visited with my family. While we have some variety in our individual tastes, we all found something we enjoyed. Service was great. Our waters were full all night, and we did not feel rushed out. It was a little loud, but not unpleasantly so.

Il Fiore is one of my favorite local restaurants. They offer constantly delicious food, generous portions and attentive service. I will be back again and again and again!

We booked a table for four at 6:30 PM. When we arrived, we saw many people waiting outside. The hostess told us to "wait for 2 minutes." We checked on the status several times, and each time we were told it would be ready very soon. After waiting for an hour, we were still outside with no updates or clear expectations. It would have been more professional to say, "Sorry, we're overbooked, and the current wait time is about an hour." That way, we could have decided whether to wait or go elsewhere. I'm very disappointed with this kind of service--especially since it was a graduation celebration for my son. In the end, we went to another restaurant.

Thank u to landi and his staff for a wonderful rehearsal dinner ! The service, atmosphere and food was absolute perfection!!

We made a reservation online (keep in mind you get no confirmation and no one will remind you that you have a reservation, so take a note of that) and arrived a few minutes early. We were seated within five minutes of arrival at a very tight corner table. If you want privacy, this is not the restaurant for you lol. People are on top of people and it's a bit uncomfortable in my humble opinion. We started out with the broccolini, sausage with white beans and it was delicious. We also shared a Caesar salad, which was quite small for the price. We ordered the veal and sadly it wasn't what we expected as we wanted veal Parmesan and they did not have that on the menu. The veal we got was not breaded, but it was our fault for not reading the menu properly. Sadly, it didn't agree with us and we ate about half of it. I had a cannoli for dessert and that was outstanding. My husband ordered two double espressos and sadly, they charged him four times for two double espressos. In other words, most places charge you a smaller fee if you get a double, well they don't here. He was charged for four singles, so we won't make that mistake again. The restaurant was fine, but for all the fuss I have heard about it, we were not as impressed as others have been.

6:30 reservation resulted in a 7:10 seating. The ambience here reminded me of when the Titanic was sinking. Loud, overbooked and waiters running around like the place was burning down. Good lord.

TLDR: solid dinner, but there's better options in Collingswood. My group was 15 minutes late to our reservation on a Friday night but we were still seated promptly which was very appreciated. FYI- the address on their OpenTable profile is incorrect. Go to the address on Google Maps. The service the entire evening was prompt and friendly. We order the pasta special (shrimp and lobster w a garlic white wine sauce), the orecchiette, and the lobster ravioli. The portions were perfectly sized (no leftovers) and we all enjoyed our meals. With that being said, there are so many good Italian restaurants in Collingswood and this simply didn't stand out IMO. I'd go back if someone really wanted to, but it's not my first choice for an Italian meal in the area.

I adore it here! It is easily my husbands and my favorite Italian in town This place is quaint and small. You sit close to people. They now bring little lights to each table to brighten it up a bit which is a cute touch. I get the penne con piselli every time I go: similar to a vodka sauce with pancetta and peas. My husband typically gets the farfalle aurora: a lighter tomato based pink sauce with shrimp. The food has always been perfection. You get bread and olive oil and I have sometimes gotten one of the special salads. The waitstaff is humongous: you'll probably interact with at least four people, so you're never really waiting. We were in and out in 30 minutes.

We went to Il Fiore a few days ago and had a wonderful experience. Every server and host were extremely friendly and made sure we enjoyed each dish. The food came out extremely quickly and was all delicious! We started with their special Burrata salad which had pineapple and strawberries. The Burrata melted in your mouth and the fruit was very fresh. I had the linguine pescatore for my entree and all of the seafood was very tasty and enjoyable. The white wine sauce was perfect as well! For dessert, I had the tiramisu. The tiramisu was amazing and had just enough coffee flavor. We really enjoyed Il Fiore and can't wait to be back again soon!

Food was good here but the service was bizarre. The waiters run around in such a frenzy it creates an uncomfortable environment. I barely had my coat off about to sit down when the waitress was inches away from me trying to grab my bottle of wine to pour a glass. It started with that and continued with crazy rushed behavior on her part throughout the meal. It's clear they want you in and out as quickly as possible to move onto the next customers. I won't be returning unless I want to have heartburn from shoveling my food and drink down at light speed to accommodate the chaos of this restaurant.

After my original visit 8 years ago and 3rd overall. I must say things have improved quite a bit. Somewhat of a small quaint 2-dining room restaurant with excellent professional and friendly service. Love the loud but cozy ambiance that allowed you to sit next to other tables and not even hear their conversation or they ours. Extensive menu with just enough of a vary to make you say "oh that look delicious and so does that and...." Food is plentiful and nicely appealing to the eye. Tasty and served quickly which allows you to enjoy at your own pace. No rush attitude from the servers and you can even BYO. Parking is a bit of a challenge so just remember to look for the Wawa, there is a public lot next to it that always has available spaces. Enjoy!

Visiting my sister and her family who live in NJ. We live in Oregon. My husband really wanted good Italian food. This place was top notch. Great food and amazing service. We had a memorable time!!

Perfection! My husband and I are foodies. From the freshly topped calamari starter, to the robust main pork chop center of thick mozzarella with Al dente vegetables and surrounded by delectable marsala and ending with lemon cake with perfect amounts of cake and cream. Staff was attentive and perfectly timed, swift and warm. My family had other favorites at the table including the lobster bisque soup and the large portion of shrimp scampi ending with the pistachio gelato which was heaven. Chairs had cushions that were supportive, decor was elegantly decorated with an old world feel, space was roomy for a romantic feel and the energy comforting. We will be returning if we can get in.

Amazing place , tasty food , friendly staff and reasonable prices . One of the best restaurants in South New Jersey .

We had a great experience here! Very impressed with the food and the service was great as well. We started with the mussels in red sauce, portion was big! We also had the Fettuccini al Salmone, HIGHLY recommend! It was our favorite dish of the night. The vodka sauce was flavorful and there were large chunks of salmon. (Wish we took a pic but we devoured it too quickly) For dinner I had the salmon entree and my fiance had the chicken Marsala. Again both very good. We finished off with tiramisu! Can't wait to go back!

Everything to love about this lunchtime dining experience! Sweet ambience with murals of Venice, I think, and silk draperies under crystal chandeliers. Very attentive waitstaff! And the food was the best! Started with fresh, unbreaded calamari in a chopped tomato, olive, onion and capers sauce that was perfection! Next the freshest, most succulent grouper I've had since leaving the Gulf Coast, it was exquisite! I could take points off for the soggy francese coating or the watery lemon caper sauce but only for texture because the taste was 100% 'chef's kiss' Dessert was the darkest chocolate cake I've ever seen and the best I've ever had! Accompanied by a perfect cappuccino, it was an amazing finish to a very satisfying meal! I highly recommend!

We arrived a bit early while the staff was still setting up, and they couldn't have been more welcoming -- even offering us hot coffee on a cold, rainy day. The food was absolutely excellent; every single guest left satisfied. Service was truly second to none. The owner worked closely with my sister-in-law to plan the event and was as accommodating as anyone could hope for. Having worked in the industry booking parties myself, I can honestly say he went above and beyond. A standout experience from start to finish.

Prices are very reasonable. Great portions and homey vibes and linens. Service was good.

This place never disappoints! Absolutely superior food & service! I'm so glad my family decided to celebrate Easter here. I was nervous about the preset 4 course menu but it was beyond amazing. It was $55 per person. They had several options despite the preset menu. Each course was delicious. Service was friendly & they seemed fully staffed & everyone was working hard. That place was a well oiled machine despite how crowded it was. My mom & brother ordered different options off the menu so we got to try & sample each others different courses. I had the grilled calamari, Cesar salad, lamb chops, & tiramisu & cappuccino. I was beyond satisfied. The portions were huge & cooked perfectly. We can't wait to come back!

Our server was wonderful, very knowledgeable and the food was amazing. The only complaint- We were seated at the second worst table in the restaurant, near the kitchen and I had to keep ducking to avoid a collision. We will definitely be back

Each time we have enjoyed a meal here it was delicious. They are also opened for lunch with us wonderful if you want an upscale lunch also .Service is always superb n it's lovely inside .

Great food, great service, and great atmosphere and ambience Nice menu selection and a great place to take out your date or wife.

Have been going to this place for years and amazing how consistent they stay. Reservations are good to have, although you'll still probably wait a half hour or so on a weekend night. They do give you wine glasses while you wait if you ask. Byob. We started with the lobster ravioli as an app size. I got my go to- veal il fiore. The chunks of crab are still just as big. My wife got the lobster bucatini special. Everything was delicious as usual. Definitely worth a visit if you haven't been!

Really fantastic experience here. Wonderful service and ambiance, delicious food and reasonable prices. The vodka sauce was just perfect!

Great service. Great food. Ambiance is amazing This place is 1,000% underrated! Will be coming back and getting the homemade gnocchi

First time and this place is a hidden gem. Absolutely amazing meals and service. Packed on a Friday night and we were lucky to get a table.

Excellent restaurant, the specials were veal parm and lobster with squid ink pasta. Both outstanding since they use the freshest ingredients! Always packed, no last minute reservations. This is a byob, so the focus is on the food. Give yourself extra time to find parking.

We really enjoyed the food and atmosphere at Il Fiore in Collingswood. The flavorful dishes and inviting ambiance make it a delightful dining experience. The cozy atmosphere adds to the overall charm. A definite recommendation for those seeking a BYOB Italian restaurant.

A very consistent Italian restaurant. Never disappointed and my favorite restaurant in all of Collingswood.

An amazing authentic Italian meal in a crowded but cozy restaurant. The food is out of this world, and being a BYO, you bring whatever drink you're feeling! Highlights were the mushrooms with shrimp as well as the special pasta with scallops

A new favorite! Best chicken I have tasted. Chicken Pomadoro. My wife had the fish also great. Beautiful interior murals everywhere. Great service and reasonable prices. Normally lines out the door. Come early, you will not be disappointed.

I feel like I am very confused to all the amazing reviews of this establishment. When I recently visited here, it was so incredibly packed you had to yell to hear the diners at your table. The tables were so close that you felt like you were communally dining and could hear every other table's conversation. The bread came out warm but so hard that it did not taste like it was freshly out of the oven. Next we moved on to the special salad that just looked like random items thrown together and didn't make any sense (pineapples in a salad?). We then moved on to the fettuccini al salmon, which was covered in a very strange, displeasing sauce. We also tried a chicken dish which did not take fresh. I just feel like there's much better restaurants in the neighborhood and will not be returning.

Very delicious food, very tentative service, and a beautiful ambience. Great pricing, amazing date night spot. Chicken parm was one of the best I have ever had. I wish it was a little more crispy, but overall super delicious.

We had a delightful meal at this lovely Italian restaurant. The service was impeccable, attentive and helpful. And, the food was delicious! I must note that portions were larger than expected, a very pleasant surprise. For us, the highlight was the Funghi Gratinati appetizer! We will definitely return!

Great food. Great service. I get the chicken parm and it's so filling! Would definitely recommend this establishment

One of the best restaurants in South Jersey (all cuisines). Friendly, impeccable service, great atmosphere, and a great menu with well prepared food. Specials of the day/night are top notch - had the swordfish last night which was a thick piece fish classic preparation with capers lemon grilled hint of rosemary - absolutely delish... I eat here often - family, friends, birthdays, repasts - trust me - you cannot go wrong here. BYOB.

What an outstanding restaurant. The food was superb, the staff totally attentive and the ambience was so inviting. Been a few months since we have gone to Collingswood but Il Fiore will be bringing us back early and often!I I cannot tell you how wonderful the food is here. It needs yo be savored. My highest compliments to all at Il Fiore.

Food was amazing. Ambiance was very good. Service little slow but the place was packed which is amazing because it was a mid-week evening. I will definitely return.

Took my wife here for her birthday, party of four with reservations. We were on time and were seated immediately. It was 1 PM, so we were given the lunch menu. Crowded on a weekday, but the tables are spaced well and the atmosphere is "laid back" and comfortable. Our server was excellent and paced the meal well; we never felt rushed. Our entrees were all excellent. The manager checked in twice to make sure we were satisfied. The desserts were as good as the entrees. The prices were very reasonable for everything. Staff members sang a nice "Happy birthday" to my wife when they brought her dessert. This is a real class operation here. We were "first timers" here and will definitely be back. It's a little out of our way, but we wanted to take a ride, and for the future, we never mind travelling a bit for a really good restaurant, and we had heard good things about this place. It did not disappoint.

Went here for my birthday, which falls in the beginning of the holiday season. It was a friday night and very busy. We waited a little bit for our table, but it was worth it. Food was amazing. We had appetizers, salad and meals. Kudos to the waiters and waitresses who were literally running around making sure everyone was taken care of. I will definitely be back.

Food and service were very good. Very loud and crowded on a Saturday evening. May try an evening during the week.

Such a great addition to my favorite restaurants. Waited a little after my reservation time but it was ok. Food made up for it. No complaints here!

We went to Il Fiore on a Wednesday night around 7:30pm without a reservation. We had no problem getting seated. The ambience is classic with white tablecloths but not too fancy. They brought us over bread with an oil dipping sauce which was very good and wine glasses since it is byob. We had 2 appetizers- grilled calamari and burrata caprese. The grilled calamari was really interesting because I had never had it not fried before. It was very tender and flavorful. I can't quite remember the burrata but think it may have been a small portion size. For dinner, I had the penne with pancetta in a pink vodka sauce and it was to die for! It was full of tons of pancetta in a creamy rich sauce and large enough to have leftovers to take home. My boyfriend got the spinach gnocchi which he loved. The gnocchi was light and airy and very flavorful, but perhaps a bit smaller than the penne vodka. We also had desserts-- a vanilla ice cream with a hard chocolate shell, a cannoli, and the espresso gelato. These were all good! We've had better cannoli before, but it was still really good. We will return!

Met up with a friend here for dinner. Loved this restaurant so much! The service was phenomenal. The entire staff was very friendly and attentive. Someone always came by to refill our water. The food was absolutely delicious. Everything was so fresh. I got a Caesar salad which was yummy and had the right coating of dressing. For my entree I ordered the spaghetti tartufo which I adored so much. The truffle oil really made the meal come together and it was very flavorful. I also got their homemade tiramisu. It was so moist and just fantastic and a great way to end the meal. The ambiance was very cute and quaint. It had beautiful paintings of Italian landscape all over the walls. I loved the small cozy feel; indeed a charming Italian restaurant that fits perfectly in Collingswood. This is definitely what I expect in an Italian restaurant and Il Fiore exceeded my expectations!

After dining at Il fiore at least 10 times in the last 4 years it's way overdue that I give it the 5 stars it deserves. It never let's us down. It's clean, has reasonable prices, has super friendly servers and the food is always top-notch. Dinner always starts with fantastic bread and dipping sauce. I recommend NOT skipping on ordering a salad. Their alway excellent. Especially if they offer one with barrata cheese. All the entries are excellent and I recommend ordering any dinner special they offer when you sit down. Even if they offer any kind of fish, it will be knock your socks off delicious. Again, their dinner specials are excellent.

Never again I said that 9 months ago but we figured we would try again. WRONG. Same old shit as last time. Had a 6:30 reservation and arrived and checked in ( after a struggle to get to the desk). People are stuffed inside trying to get to check in. It's now 7:00 and very few people are going to their tables. The blond woman is running around like a chicken with her head cut off calling names for tables that are ready. Half those people never answered because they left (plenty of good Italian restaurants in collingswood ). Out reservation was 6:30 and it was now 7:15 and there were people there from 6:00 still waiting. We left and went down the street for a nice Italian dinner. People, the people who own the restaurant don't give a S--- about you. Stop going and maybe they will change. If there idea of a reservation is waiting out side in the cold and rain or stuffed inside an hour or past your reservation time then i can't imagine what they do to the food. It's all about the money. Stop going

Two stars for a good time the first time there. Tonight showed up for our 7pm reservation and spent 20 minutes trying to check in before having to leave since we had a young child. Other people had been waiting since 6 at 715. Food is good but get an early table or be prepared to wait!

Went for lunch after not having been there in forever. We shared a mussels appetizer which was yummy. Tender and swimming in a broth that called for us to dip the crusty bread into. I had chicken Piemontese. Huge portion of tender cutlet in a light sauce and hiding beautifully cooked veg. It was delicious and enough for my husband's dinner! My partner had the branzino special and loved it also. Topped off meal with excellent coffee and a shared dish of wonderful gelato. So glad I revisited this little treasure and will be returning for dinner soon.
