Excellent food and service. Especially loved the Crab Cake appetizer and Rigatoni Buttera. Fresh shrimp cocktail was delicious. read more

The calamari appetizer was excellent. I had asked were the blue point oysters plump and were told yes, but they weren't. We ordered grouper which was just Ok. The vegetable (carrots, broccoli and potatoes) were undercooked. The Sauvignon wine was tasty. The mousse dessert was delicious. I had put my credit card on the table and the waiter took it and charged my card without me reviewing the bill. We had ordered tap water but we were charged $10 for flat water. I'm not sure I know the difference as it tasted just like NY water. Overall it was a good dining experience but could use a bit of a tweaking. read more

Went out here on a lazy Sunday of Labor Day weekend with wife and daughter. From Manhattan it was an hour long drive. Nice comfortable restaurant by the marina but no water views. Started with fried artichokes which were excellent. One of their many specials. Followed with zucchini flowers which were good but not great. Warm, not hot. Mains were a nice chicken martini with generous portions and a pappardelle with veal ragout which was solid if not spectacular. Desert was a lemon cake, very tasty which we shared across the table. Waiter very attentive to my five year old who had noodles with butter and some juice. They brought her food right out. As an added bonus there is parking available and we parked right outside the place. Work checking out if you are in the neighborhood maybe not worth an hour drive. read more

The food was amazing, flavorful and the seafood was fresh. I highly recommend trying this restaurant

Service venue food and price are all fantastic. The outdoor ambience is quiet and pleasant. We had Mediterranean salad and shrimp cocktail for apps. Delicious and refreshing. Dirty martini was on point. Wife had whole lobster fra diavolo, she loved it and did not leave a single thing. I went with branzino which was flavorful and rich. Almost tasted like chicken. Had a pistachio cheese cake for dessert, was superb. Service is unmatched too. Come to this place and keep it going! read more

Staff was attentive and friendly; services quick and professional. The fried calamari was good but it came with a sauce that's new to us, a little hint of buffalo and perhaps tomato..? We weren't sure what the sauce was. The beef carpaccio was interesting and the sauce accompanying the salad was delicious. The beef, however, was thinner than a slice of paper; we had trouble picking it up for it shredded so easily due to its thinness (really wish it was mildly thicker so we can actually taste the beef). Our favorite was the fettuccini carbonara; creamy and flavorful, pairing perfectly with the complimentary bread! Tasted even better when we asked for some black pepper! Overall the entree was more delicious than the appetizers, so definitely try their main entrees if you get a chance! Thanks for reading and good luck everyone!! read more

We came to Fiore Di Mare on Mother's Day for an early dinner. Valet was on their game from the second we pulled up which was much appreciate since it was pouring out. Once we all arrived, we were seated immediately and given the special Mother's Day menu. For apps, we ordered: -fried calamari -seafood salad with calamari, mussels, and octopus -baked clams (SO good!) -portobello mushrooms with fresh mozzarella -a couple of different salads They also gave us tons of hot bread with a sun dried tomato pesto that we devoured. So good. The apps were enough to feed a small army so we barely had room for our mains, but we already ordered so tried to stuff ourselves as much as we could. For my main, I ordered the Linguine Nero with seafood which was a huge portion but delicious. I had to take this home because I couldn't put a dent in it. My mom got the Bistecca alla Griglia which was perfectly cooked and medium. I got to steal a few bites and I'm happy I did. We each ordered a different dessert even though no one could really move at this point lol. I went with the Lava Cake which, disappointingly, was just chocolate cake with chocolate sauce on top... no actual "lava" in the middle. Not the worst thing in the world, but definitely not a lava cake by definition. Overall, we had a lovely experience here and I'd definitely come back for another dinner party. read more

I live right by this place, and never really was compelled to go there because it was always empty. After COVID, they set up outdoor seating & people started rushing there because it was pretty and they have nice decor. It was good. Can't say I didn't like anything. But i cant say it was amazing. I've had better, I've had worse. Dessert was kind of bad though. It was just frozen pre made dessert, not even heated up. read more

(Pros) Fiore Di Mare is a lovely little restaurant right by the Marina. I noticed they have a pre fixe menu mon-fri 3pm-7pm for $25, that's one of the reasons I wanted to check it out and sample some dishes. Had 6pm reservations for party of three. Was seated right away outside, very nice. (Cons) We were handed the regular menu not the pre fixe (I had to ask). If you are going to advertise this on your website then you should automatically give ALL the menus whether new customers OR regular. I shouldn't have to ask. They also didn't have a drink menu. I understand you have a full bar and can make anything BUT sometimes I'm undecided on what to order and would like to look at a drink menu. First time dining at a restaurant where they don't give you the full dining and drink menus. We started off with two appetizers off the regular menu: Stuffed zucchini flower and calamari (nice and crispy). Not bad. Portion was a good size. For dinner we tried the pre fixe. First course all had the baked clams(very good) Second course: me & mom had the gnocchi (it was just okay). Hubby had the veal which he enjoyed. We also had drinks. Mom and I had a glass of wine each and hubby had 2 beers. Overall the service was friendly and the food was not bad. I may give it another try and order off the regular menu but was a little turned off. If you don't want customers to order the pre fixe then don't offer it. It's not because they forgot I seen them hand other customers just the regular menu. read more

Make reservations! We were lucky to reserve a table for two for 7pm by calling on a Saturday at 6pm. When we arrived, we chose a table inside and were seated right away. The place filled up pretty quickly, and by 8pm there were no available tables, remaining that way late into the night. Most of the tables seat 4-6 people, so if you have a large party, you definitely need to plan ahead and reserve two tables that possibly might be joined together. Outdoor seating is available, but it gets windy by the water, so we decided to stay warm inside. However, the AC/fans inside were working at a demon speed, so I had to put on my coat, tights, and scarf to keep warm. Bring something warm with you, just in case. The ambiance is casual, old style American-Italian. A fireplace in the center of the room, dimmed lighting, white linens and live rose centerpieces on every table. Great for a casual friend/family outing or a relaxed date. The demographics of diners is predominantly white American and 40+. My bf and I were the only non-American couple in our 20's. Our waiter seemed slightly uncomfortable serving us. He was way into his 60's, and seemed so friendly and warm with guests who were in his age group. To us, he was impatient and finicky. My bf couldn't understand his accent, so that visibly annoyed him. We were presented only with an expensive wine menu--no other alcoholic drinks were listed. When my bf asked for alcoholic selection beyond wine, our waiter didn't react. Did he expect us to go to the bar and get the drinks ourselves? My bf asked for any cocktails--the waiter remained unresponsive. Then my bf asked for beer. He was informed that draft beer was available. My bf ordered Stella, but some other draft beer was brought. My bf knows beer, so he tasted right away that the beer wasn't Stella. We called our waiter and told him of the difference and only then he said that they were out of Stella. So it was okay to serve us a random beer when we ordered Stella and not even inform us? Did he think that it didn't matter and that we wouldn't know the difference anyway? At least he didn't give us any issues over replacing the beer with Artois, which indeed was the correct beer. After that beer snafu and throughout our meal, our food was delivered by busboys, who were actually friendly. Our waiter didn't check in on us until we asked for the check. My bf was not happy with the service. Now to the food. Yelpers were divided between those who really liked the food and those who thought it was mediocre. I was a bit anxious, but also very hopeful because I wanted our anniversary diner to be a positive experience. The complementary bread was delicious! Freshly baked, still warm, served with sweet pepper and tomato paste. I devoured it all, I was so hungry and that was a perfect start of my meal. As always, I stuffed myself too full of delicious bread even before appetizers arrived, so strongly recommend to pace yourself, because you might be tempted to go heavy on the bread, but then you'll be too full to enjoy anything beyond appetizers. Burrata ($15) served with sun dried tomatoes was too chilled for my liking. It was served straight out of the fridge/freezer, so all I could taste was the cold dairy. Maybe I was still too cold and was craving something warm to warm me up, but I did not enjoy this as much as I usually enjoy burrata. Skip the Crab cake ($15). The portion was generous, and was even served with a side of greens, but the patty contained too little crab chunks and too much bread and stuffing. Forgettable and not worth the money or your stomach real estate. My bf got the Chicken Valdostana ($23): stuffed breast of chicken with prosciutto, mozzarella, porcini mushroom sauce, truffle oil, served with mashed potatoes and grilled vegetables. Have to say the chicken breast was on point--tender, flavorful, and well-seasoned. Loved the stuffing--really great combination that I'd love to try at home. Two chicken breasts were served, the portion is definitely huge and enough to fill anyone up. The truffle and porcini mushroom sauce were to die for--serious standouts that I can still remember. A very unusual rendition of a simple classic done right. Definitely recommend! I don't eat pasta except for squid ink linguine with seafood. Linguine Nero ($28) with white wine and plum tomato sauce did not disappoint. A humongous portion, with a good proportion of seafood to pasta. No fishy taste to it at all, like some Yelpers described. Took leftovers home, and they were surprisingly delicious three days later--now that's quality ingredients! We were too stuffed for dessert. The bill came to $100 without the tip. Their weekday Mon-Fri dinner price fix three course dinner for $25 looks like a great deal, so I'm hoping to return to try it out. read more

This is a favorite of our family because they treat us like family not to mention we really love the food! Today was no exception with our usual order of grilled octopus and crab cake! Dinner included one of the specials which was seafood risotto which I loved, along with salmon over Israeli couscous and a special request grilled shrimp over garlic and oil spaghetti. Oh and the toasted almond cake was over the edge! Limoncello courtesy of Bobo was a very nice touch but no surprise!! read more

I was extremely disappointed by my experience here (food and service) such that I will never go again. Prior to going this past Sunday, my husband called to make reservations stating that it was our wedding anniversary and that we would like a nice table. The person who answered the phone, an older man, was rude and brushed him off. When we arrived, we noticed a nice six-seat table near the patio and asked if we could sit there. The restaurant was barely crowded but the maitre d (likely the same person who answered the phone) said we could not be seated there in case a party of 6 came. This would have been a reasonable response if it were a Friday or Saturday night, but at 3 PM on a Sunday afternoon? Not to mention, there were many empty tables... Our waiter was very unenthusiastic in his greeting. He stated the specials. We ordered baked clams as an appetizer. My mother ordered the halibut oreganata (on special), my aunt and husband ordered the prawns with saffron risotto (on special) and I ordered the linguine nero with seafood. Our clams arrived and for $15 they were shameful- overcooked to the point of being rubbery. A very rookie mistake. We did not say anything because the service was so disinterested, we did not think it would make a difference. We awaited our entrees with bated breath, but were extremely disappointed for the following reasons: 1) My mother's halibut was so, so dry- it was beyond well done. There was insufficient sauce and lemon to redeem the fish. 2) The prawns were inconsistently cooked- some parts were dry and others were under-cooked. 3) At NO point did any member of the staff come over to see how we were faring with our dishes. 4) My pasta dish was the best-tasting, but it was one note. The best part of the meal was dessert, namely the tartufo. For the same amount of money, I regret not going to Bocelli's. read more

Our Family ate dinner there to celebrate our 54th Anniversary. The appetizers, Calamari, baked clams, and burrata were amazing. Tasty and cooked to perfection. We had strip steak,, filet mignon and ribeye steak. They were cooked perfectly. Desserts were excellent. We highly recommend and will be going back. read more

We just ordered pick up and the food was decent at best , but when my wife's ravioli dish had more hair in it then on my head, that is just plain bad. In addition, the crab cake was dry and tasteless. Wish them well. read more

Went out to dinner with some friends. Upon arrival Fiore seemed like a nice fine dining establishment. From the look of things I was expecting an enjoyable, yet pricey meal. The place seemed to be busy. To my surprise things seemed to take a turn for the worse. After we were seated we asked our server 3 times for a cocktail menu to start. He seemed to ignore us. As we sat and read the menu we "enjoyed" a basket of cold bread. To start we ordered appetizers. They seemed to be satisfying. We ordered the baked clams, oysters, calamari and octopus. Throughout the course of our dinner, I started to get irritated with the way the waiters were serving us. The server kept putting his arms over my shoulders and in my face in order to provide me with water and collect my plates. When he served me another clean plate he plopped it in front of me. It was very uncomfortable having someone on top of you with no etiquette. As we sat there waiting for our dinner, the table was a mess. I remember waiting a while for our food and saying to myself, it would be nice if someone came and cleaned up. Minutes later the server comes over, reaches over my shoulder and using his tool scrapes all the crumbs and junk in my lap and on my white shirt. I looked at him in complete SHOCK. Never have I ever dealt with a staff that was so careless and stupid. For dinner I ordered the veal martini. Needless to say when it came out it was paper thin, cold and overly drenched in lemon juice. Overall the service ruined my time, the food wasn't terrible. Advice to management, teach your employees etiquette. No one wants to spend that type of money and have to deal with that. read more

This has got to be one of the finest seafood I've ever been to. It has an elegance about it. The meal was awesome..(I had the pasta with the broccoli rabe and shrimp) and our waiter was so professional, especially when he brought the dessert choices on a tray and explained to us what each one was. It was hard to make a choice, they all looked so good! Pleasant atmosphere! If you ever come to the Marina on Staten Island in Great Kills, this is a place I would recommend for fine dining! read more

Fiore Di Mare - Italian Near Me - Staten Island, New York

Fabulous establishment with magnificent atmosphere! Their food...top notch... their desserts are delicious too...xoxo

If your interested in a quiet dinner with good food then this is your spot. Italian type food with veal, chicken, and pork dishes Italian style. They had a ton of pasta dishes but I did not look at them because I am not eating carbs at the moment. I did see a special of a ribeye steak with truffle fries which was delicious. I substituted the fried for veggies. ( sorry forgot to take pics). My lady friend ordered the Bronzino filet in a butter sauce. They had whole Bronzino as well.. I was shocked that they only had 4 fish dishes and they are located right on the harbor. Her fish was fishy tasting. That's a big red flag for me. Everything else was pretty good. We ordered a pear salad and sausage and broccoli rabe which was surprisingly good. Usually I find restaurant broccoli rabe to be bitter but this one was delicious. The salad was your average salad, nothing to write home about. Lastly the service was extremely attentive, clean, nice intimate setting and parking right out front. I found the prices slightly high but not that bad. Maybe I'm just being a cry baby like she said to me in the car. read more

Fresh seafood however, tasteless. Grilled octopus and crab cakes what a shame. The presentation was appealing.. Undercooked pasta as per waiter that's how the CHEF prefers to prepare pasta. (Personal preferenceS should be kept personal) Slightly al'dente is understandable when it's sticking to your teeth after chewing that's not enjoyable. In addition, the waiter failed to offer us the prix menu that was available which we overheard the patrons beside us request. So heads up it isn't offered unless requested.. Our waiter never asked if we were satisfied with our dishes nor did he our empty glasses of water from our large bottle of water.. Though we are quite capable of pouring out own glass of water we expect to served and waited on. That's is the true fine dining experience. read more

Stef & I recently brought our friend DougJones and his girl Toni here to celebrate his birthday. We enjoyed the Fresh Mozzarella with tomatoes and the Portobello mushroom with spinach for appetizers. For dinner we had two orders of the grilled filet Mignon w/without the peppercorns and brandy sauce,and an order of the Grilled rack of lamb, all were very good. But surprisingly the star of the show was the Veal cutlet with mushrooms cream and truffle oil, it was truly outstanding. Add a few drinks a couple bottles of wine, espresso, sambuca & dessert and you check easly climes past 4 Bills and although the atmosphere is nice the service is more familiar than professional and for that price I couldn't give it Five Stars. read more

I recently visited this restaurant for the first time to have lunch. A few days later I was doing a night-time walk with a friend by the marina. I suggested we stop to have a drink and an appetizer. It was 9:25 (the restaurant closes at 10:00). I asked the Maitre d for a table, and he said they were closing. We said "ok" and were on our way out when we heard him say "I don't allow people in tank tops in my restaurant". First of all....he could just tell us that we were not wearing the appropriate dress code, and we would know for the next time. Second, the comment was clearly made for us to hear. I'm not sure who he was talking to, being that there were only two tables with patrons. We were wearing shorts and tank tops because we were getting exercise and the temperature was 90 degrees. We just wanted to support a local, family run business during this hard economic time. I am not saying that I would not visit again. But the Maitre d needs a crash course in customer service. read more

I'd love to give this place 4 stars because the food is great, but the service is horrible and it's way overpriced! We ordered the rigatoni bolognese and the rosemary salmon both were awesome but took forever to get it the restaurant only had 4 other guests, and the waiter was mumbling when he was reading the specials. It's a nice location near the marina and you can sit outside on the front patio. I really hope they improve on their service and soon!!! read more

All I can say was that everything was ON-POINT. Attentive staff but not smothering and the food was perfect. I was given a gift certificate for this place so we tried it and loved it.

Very disappointed. I hardly write a bad review or even a review at all but this place.. Ordered Tanquary and tonic, got Beefeater instead. Really. Appetizers were sub par but what we ordered. 3 of us ordered seafood fri Diablo, it was bland. The waiter brought us out hot pepper, are you'd serious? Granted it was good but not what we ordered Or wanted so why make it worse. Waiter brings out desert sampler but says this is the last Cheesecake and maybe nit available, so don't offer it. What I ordered I didn't get nor did 2 of the others , just a tray of what they had. Waiter brings out lemon cello on the house, nice gesture but 2 out of 5 like it. Ask what we'd like. All for all their 0 for four. So its obvious we won't be back. We should have taken the extra few steps to Cole's . We were never disappointed there. Could have been an off night but I don't see it . Extremely disappointing. read more

Excellent food, pleasant staff and cozy atmosphere, loved it! I can't wait to go back and try some other dishes!
