    Mascarpone Whipped Potatoes

    To say I was blown away by this dining experience is an understatement. I came here for dinner on a Friday night with a group of friends and it is incredible. From the moment we walked in, you are greeted by a welcoming and hospitable team. The restaurant is quite large, and we were seated in one of the smaller rooms off from the side of the bar. It was perfect for us so we could chat and catch up with one another. We started the evening with cocktails and a few appetizers. The restaurant offers amazing complimentary bread service that is table side. We also ordered the meat balls that came with three total and the chopped salad. The salad was definitely my favorite starter from our menu. For main dishes, we ordered the chicken parmesean, a steak and the vodka pasta. I was completely full by the end of the evening, but of course, we still finished the meal with the chocolate cake. I would definitely recommend this spot if you are looking to celebrate an important milestone, have a romantic evening with a significant other, or grab dinner with a group of friends. Thank you again for this amazing experience!

    Came here for another restaurant week! Loved the vibes of Fioretta. There was a jazz ensemble also playing in background. The restaurant week special had some add ons included. We started off with the wood roasted oysters and Caesar salad. The Caesar salad was a little salty, but the oysters were pretty yummy and warm. For the second course, we substituted one of the courses for the 16 oz New York strip and the other is the chicken Parmesan. I was a little disappointed with the chicken parm (my fault because I thought it included pasta). We paid $40 more for the New York strip and it was perfectly charred on the outside with a nice medium rare touch inside. Also, the tiramisu was so BOMB!! I loved everything about it and I had a second stomach as soon as the dessert came. I think this place is okay to try out at least once. This restaurant is definitely for special occasions or a once a year type of meal. It's even better if you have the Chase Sapphire reserved so you can get that doing credit.

    Fantastic service, great food, nice ambiance, and a tad expensive. We came to celebrate a new job and it ended up being restaurant week, so we tried the menu and ordered some additional dishes: - Meatballs - Wood Roasted Oysters - Bignè - Chicken Parmesan - 7oz Hand Cut Filet Mignon - Macaroni Alla Vodka - Charred Broccoli - Pear of Aces (drink) - Tiramisu - Strawberry Gelato No complaints, honestly my favorite was the oysters surprisingly. The pasta and steak were cooked beautifully and everything was seasoned well.

    The vibe was a cross between a chic, upscale speakeasy and vintage Chicago steakhouse. Loved the intimate lighting, comfortable seating options and city feel. This is definitely a restaurant frequented by the in crowd, and I see the attraction! The cocktails were creative and tasty and the mixologist will tailor the cocktail according to your preferences, if you ask. The menu is approachable and ample for all except vegans, as there were not many non-dairy/meat-free options; however, they do offer delicious vegetables as side dishes. I loved that the menu wasn't overloaded with everything under the sun, it offered just the right amount of beef, poultry, seafood and pasta options. Our group had a set menu and everyone enjoyed all of the entrées. The feeling when you walk in is, " I want to be here and be seen here". There is private event space available which accommodates around 30 or so guests comfortably. There is street parking and valet parking available. I will be back soon!

    Fioretta had been on my list for some time, and it exceeded expectations. The ambiance is modern and refined--an elevated take on the traditional steakhouse, ideal for both date nights and social gatherings. Service was outstanding; every staff member I encountered was professional, friendly, and attentive. The highlight of the evening was the tableside Caesar salad, expertly prepared and absolutely delicious. The chicken Parmesan was rich and flavorful, and I was pleasantly surprised by the tuna tartare, which offered a mild, balanced heat despite being labeled spicy. I look forward to returning, especially to explore their Happy Hour offerings.

    Our experience at Fioretta was absolutely immaculate from start to finish. From the moment we walked in, the service was exceptional. The ambiance was upscale, elegant, and warm without feeling pretentious. Our waiter, Fabio, was phenomenal -- so polished and professional that I initially thought he was the manager. He was dressed impeccably in a maroon and black suit, explained the menu thoroughly, gave thoughtful recommendations, and made us feel completely taken care of throughout the evening. The food and drinks were outstanding, beautifully presented, and worth every penny. The tableside Caesar salad preparation added such a special touch, and every detail of the dining experience felt elevated and intentional. What truly made the night unforgettable was how they acknowledged our anniversary. I casually mentioned it when we arrived, and by the end of the evening they surprised us with dessert and a sparkling candle presentation that made the celebration feel extra special. This was our first upscale dining experience together, and Fioretta made it memorable in the best possible way. Exceptional service, stunning atmosphere, amazing food -- this is hospitality done right. We will absolutely be back!

    Lobster Diavolo

    Had the most wonderful dinner last night with the hubby. Food was delicious my squid ink lobster pasta was to die for. Perfect flavors with a hint of Calabrian chili spice to it. Ambience was great with live music and the service was amazing.

    Came here for Chicago Restaurant Week with friends and had a terrible experience. We were told we couldn't take pictures with flash, our waiter Patrick was rude, and the service was bad from start to finish. The food was disappointing, and they wouldn't allow anyone at our table to order from the main menu because some of us were doing the Restaurant Week menu. Every other Restaurant Week restaurant I've been to allows this, so it felt unnecessary. I also spoke to the manager, who was robotic and more focused on explaining company policy than actually caring about the customer experience. The whole experience felt uncomfortable and unwelcoming. Between the service and how we were treated, it honestly left me feeling singled out. Save your coins. Definitely not worth it.

    The shrimp scampi was absolutely incredible and the meatballs were also delicious unfortunately my company felt very judged and non welcome in this environment! Even still water was $10 ! Gorgeous space and a great playlist ! They felt as though they were getting dirty looks from the staff sadly, so they asked that we go elsewhere. I will have to come back and assess! The complimentary bread was good as well! Dark and moody environment with attentive service

    We dined at Fioretta during Thanksgiving and they offered a 4 course meal. Upon entering I noticed everybody was dressed up and it's a very nice spot where you go out for a special occasion. I started off with the meatballs where you get two large meatballs in a delicious marinara sauce. Then move on to a salad and got the kc strip as my main course. Then for dessert I got a delicious lemon meringue cake. They made our thanksgiving feel special when we were away from our family. Service was great, vibe felt elevated and old school, and a spot I would gladly go back to again in the future.

    Macaroni Alla Vodka

    Definitely a luxury steakhouse and you'll pay the premium prices, but SO SO delicious! The char on the steak was amazing and the mashed potatoes were so tasty! I'd recommend coming for an occasion and there are great options for vegetarians as well!

    Slow Roasted Pork Shank
    Joy C.

    I am happy that I was able to try Fioretta. We were greeted and seated as soon as we got to the place for our reservation. The interior is very simple, the background music is just loud enough to still be able to have conversations, and the vibe is lively. Our server made recommendations and the service throughout the evening was attentive and efficient. On this first visit, I've tried: PROSCIUTTO & BURRATTA- outstanding CACIO E PEPE- made perfectly PETITE FILET MIGNON- excellent SLOW ROASTED PORK SHANK- the meat was so tender and delectable DECADENT CHOCOLATE CAKE - I am not a cake person but this one made me very happy. The bread service was good enough to make me come here and the cocktails were also made well. Overall, the bathrooms are clean, the staff are prompt and nice, and the dishes are simply delicious. I will definitely come back to try other dishes on the menu, there are so many that I want to try! Lobster diavolo, King crab linguine, branzino, bisteca alla fiorentina....'Til next time!

    NY strip

    Fioretta is without question one of the best steakhouses in Chicago. Came here for the first time last week for my birthday. I had a reservation and was seated immediately by the bar area. It's not clear if the dining room is for bigger groups, but the small table by the bar was just fine. My waitress was excellent; super attentive and had great recommendations for everything I consumed. I'll cut to the chase - I had the NY strip with brussel sprouts and mashed potatoes and it was all fantastic. I judge a steakhouse by how good the leftovers are, and that stuff was STILL tasty the next day. Because it was my birthday I was given a lovely tiramisu on the house. I can't recommend this place enough; bring your checkbook tho because it's not cheap. But I can honestly say I'll be back as soon as my bank account allows.

    See all

    Are nice, clean tennis shoes allowed?

    I saw business casual & up on Mother's Day, definitely a dressier vibe. If you can make it look elevated I think it would work 👀

    How is the noise level in this restaurant? baby-friendly?

    Very loud. Not baby friendly because of the noise and how tight it is in there.

Up until tonight, my experiences had always been positive and the food was fantastic. Unfortunately, this visit was more than disappointing. I ordered a salad I've had at least a dozen times before, accept I added grilled chicken on top. I live for this salad and was just there maybe three weeks ago. Unaware that they have changed their menu, I ordered as usual. The name of the salad has not changed on the menu, but apparently the ingredients had been completely altered. When the dish arrived, to my surprise, it was drastically different and not something I enjoyed at all. I politely informed our server, who was kind and accommodating, and offered to replace the dish. However, it was now 6 p.m. we had tickets to see The Wiz at 7 p.m. and didn't have time to wait for another order, which I also informed her. I asked if the salad could be removed from the bill since it was essentially untouched. The server checked with the owner, who refused to remove the $30 salad or offer any kind of discount. When a restaurant changes a dish but keeps the same name, it creates a reasonable expectation for returning customers. When that expectation isn't met, basic customer service should step in. What makes this even more frustrating is that the restaurant was willing to prepare an entirely new dish, but not willing to remove the uneaten one from the bill. That simply isn't logical. If you're prepared to replace an item, it clearly acknowledges there was an issue, so refusing to comp or adjust the original charge is unreasonable. That decision was extremely disappointing. I, in-turn made the decision to eat only the additional grilled chicken on top, leaving the rest of the salad, paying the full bill and promptly getting out of there so we could be on time for our show. The only positive part of the experience was our server, who handled the situation with professionalism and kindness. Sadly, the new menu leaves much to be desired and this experience has cost Peanut Park my business and my referrals going forward.

Reservations are released 21 days ahead of time, which I personally find impossible to make. Every time I've checked over the last several years there have been no availability. Yesterday I decided to pop on their website again and was delighted to find that they had released same day dinner reservations for patio only dining. The weather was perfect for outdoor dining so I went ahead and booked a table for Friday night. I felt like I won the dinner lottery. Service was wonderful and I didn't mind sitting outside at all next to the road with cars. I actually never stepped foot in the restaurant so cannot comment on what it's like inside. But do not give up that patio dining reservation if it's available. All of our dishes were delicious. I was really impressed by the meatball appetizers, chicken vesuvio (the potatoes are a must get as a side if you skip this dish), and branzino. The meats and sauces were wonderfully balanced and tender. Nothing tasted overly salted. Ironically, the pasta felt less of a star compared to the other dishes. And of course I had to get the gelato, which was so aesthetically presented and the taste just reminded me of an Italian summer vacation.

I…read moreconsistently order pickup (direct and DD) and it's usually quick and consistent - my order is always ready before the quoted time. Today, I came in and there was no host at the front for long enough that several people just walked straight back (maybe they were meeting someone but didn't seem like it) and several servers walked in and outside without greeting. By the time Karen shows up again, it's me and another person waiting. Instead of asking "who was here first?" She services the white man, why would you assume he's there first?, and I have to listen to him asking if he can sit at the bar, doesn't understand why he can't sit at the bar, needs recommendations nearby where he can drink and wait at, if they'll hold his bags, and his whole life story. She's about to walk away with his bags when I say that I was here first and I'm picking up. She tells me go to the side window outside which I've never been prompted to do. I say so and she asks for the name, if I'm the person it's for and the gets on her walkie to see if anyone can walk it up. No apology and didn't appreciate her tone throughout the exchange. I like the bucatini and spicy rigatoni but if I order next time, will avoid Karen who had terrible vibes.
