I love the decorations & the cute theme is present throughout the whole restaurant. The drink menu is expansive and the drinks were good. The food is okay. I was disappointed that my food was warm, not hot when served. My sister got a lobster roll "extra stuffed," which did not appear to be extra-stuffed. I got the chicken carbonara and believe that I got a large portion for the price point. The service was a bit on the slower side, but I did not see as many waiters as I thought I would have for a Saturday evening. My expectations were high due to the price point and formality, and I was a bit let down. The vibes in here were fun. I think that if it was better staffed and the seafood portions were priced accordingly, we would have had a better experience and thought we got a better deal for the price. read more

You definitely are paying for the ambiance. The food itself isn't anything to right home about, especially for the price. But I will applaud that the portions are decent sizes. I wasn't blown away and felt like the flavors were lackluster. The pasta was an alright red sauce, flavors could've been a bit more complex and boldly fresh. The Arancini tasted like a bland mushy hushpuppy in marinara. The best dish was the salmon, if I had to recommend anything! Super flaky with a crispy fish, paired nicely with the salad and potatoes. Service itself was good and the drinks were just okay. I like that they have many cocktail options to choose from, but my drink was honestly straight juice. As someone who's lightweight, I was shocked to find that the portions for drinks for the little amount of alcohol for $15 is a bit absurd (I got the st Richard ride). I'd only come once for the ambiance but it's pretty disappointing for what you pay. 6.5/10 read more

The vibes of the restaurant are nice and everyone we encountered working was friendly. Restrooms are clean. The downfall was the food. My friend wanted to come here to celebrate her birthday and she was dying to come for the lobster roll. It was legit TINY for $38...the size of her hand next to the photo for reference. The chicken gnocchi was ok. I felt I could've made this dish at home. read more

Beautiful setting and easy to walk to from downtown. Great place for pictures or a romantic dinner. We went for a girls dinner and each of us ordered different things. I ordered the 8 oysters for $30 and was disappointed. The oysters were tiny, two of them about the size of a dime. They did have good flavor though. My friends enjoyed their specialty drinks but the food was average. With the exception of the oysters, the portions were large. Great setting but need to tweak some things in the dishes. read more

We went super late--nearing close--and the service was great. The bartenders were so quick and friendly. The vibes are IMPECCABLE. very high class. The peep show drink, which may or may not be seasonal, was fantastic. Couches were great for big groups chatting. read more

Fiori in Old City downtown Knoxville is such a cute spot with an amazing ambiance--perfect for a girls night or a special occasion. The atmosphere alone makes it feel like a little escape. The service was good, and my friend and I both really enjoyed our cocktails and entrées--they were definitely the highlight of the meal. We weren't huge fans of the appetizers we tried, but we found out they're leaving the menu soon anyway, so that made sense. On a high note, the pistachio cream dessert was an absolute delight and the perfect way to end the night. Overall, a really lovely experience and I'd definitely go back! read more

It's a trendy spot, cute with ambiance. My wife and I were seated at a table that had the couch back and we decided to sit next to each other and just order some drinks and apps. The service was good and attentive, nothing wrong with the pace and attention. The food wasn't what we hoped it would be. The lobster roll, the insta/fb/tt advertisement , it's not good. Cold lobster on a warm charred roll. I love a cold or warm lobster roll - I like both. This was a small roll, with either dill or chive and cold lobster. I didn't taste any butter, definitely no mayo - very plain/uninspired, small portion. (Maybe it was supposed to be warm? The bread was warm, the lobster was cold - with almost no flavor - sad) The clams and chorizo. The clams were good size, good butter wine sauce (this is what the lobster roll should have had on it). They had bread at the bottom, and bread on the side to dip in the wine butter sauce. The chorizo was cold and hard - not warm and fatty. Chorizo is a Spanish pork sausage. Clams and chorizo should be a great combo but the chorizo was literally cold and felt like an after thought, it didn't make a cohesive dish. The Arancini was the best app of the night, deep fried Sicilian comfort food. Surprised this was such a miss for us. read more

From the moment that we walked in, we were in heaven! We were greeted by a very friendly and beautiful hostess. Lobster Alfredo was Devine! We ate at the bar. The bartenders were very attentive, upbeat and made awesome peach martinis! This has become one of my favorite spots to frequent when visiting my daughter, in Knoxville. read more

I made a reservation for Wednesday night for about 9 of us and we were able to get in. We were greeted by the hostess and also check on by a couple people on their way out to make sure we were helped. The decor is super cute - definitely brought some Vegas vibes to Knoxville. Our waitress was nice but she was kind of slow to take orders, didn't come check on us, didn't ask if we wanted refills on drinks, etc. I'm not sure if she was overwhelmed with a bigger party. We ordered deviled eggs, lobster bites, and bruschetta to start. Those were all delicious!!! I got the Connecticut lobster roll for my entree. It was a fairly priced item and you can get it double stuffed. I only got the regular. It was delicious and lots of lobster meat. We waited awhile to get the check and we had to go find our waitress to ask. Our table was getting cleared by the bussers which was nice. The restaurant at that point was slower so we were super disappointed in the service. The food was good enough to where I'll definitely come back but it would have been a 5 from me if service matched. read more

Fiori - Connecticut Lobster Roll - Lounges Near Me - Knoxville, Tennessee

Would not come back again. I have a list of all the places I want to try in Knoxville and slowly making my rounds since I am a foodie. My boyfriend chose Fiori since it was high on my list and not only was it any other day, it was a date for my birthday. The reservation was made, and we got a decent seat by the ambient lights, but right next to the hallway to the bathroom, so a lot of foot traffic. I ordered the espresso martini, and it was very good. I was very excited to try the Arancini and already pre meditated my dinner choices before going out. To say it was underwhelming is an under statement, it was cold, and not good. The dish should not be called Arancini it should be called a hushpuppy, the name misrepresented the dish and created overwhelming disappointment. I then ordered the a Connecticut style Lobster Roll, and a second drink. I got my meal, and wow, the portion size was irrefutably small, definitely not worth 38$. It tasted good, but literally was finished in two bites. I was finished my my meal before I got my 2nd drink. Over all, the service was great (minus my drink not being served in a timely fashion) but the server explained she was quadruple sat. I have worked in the biz, so I was understanding. So I want to give a shout out to Holly, for being the only real redeemable quality of the experience. The ambiance was cool, but if they put as much time and effort into the aesthetic as they do in the food, maybe they would actually be good. After everything, I left still hungry; It was pricey, small portions and underwhelming experience for my birthday celebration. read more

What a great addition to the Old City Restaurabt scene! The ambiance & decor is done so great making it a perfect spot for girls night bevs or a date night spot. The service was fast, friendly & attentive. The carousel cocktail was a good presentation but with the cotton candy it of course is very sweet. Unfortunately the wine menu is rather limited but they had a good array of unique cocktails offered. There were so many tempting appetizers that it was had to choose but we selected the yellow fin ceviche which was so fresh, light and tasty & the arrancini and it was super flavorful but unusually light and airy. The pavlova with poached pears with delicious also. read more

Vibrant atmosphere with fun cocktail menu! Beautiful lounge decor. Awful pasta. My husband's linguini was still stuck together, and the aldredo sauce was thin and tasteless. The other dishes at our table went over better but I didn't try them (steak, salmon, lobster roll.) Will return for cocktails! read more

Everything was excellent. Went to a birthday party there so I was lucky enough to taste a variety of drinks and food. If I had any complaint it would be the menu. Not a lot of choices. I miss the duck confit and the octopus that I had on my last two trips. Would recommend a trip just for the drink menu. Then there's the AFFO-GOT-YA for dessert, the best! read more

We came here for the first time with high expectations. In total, we spent around $160 for two people that evening, expecting an upscale dining experience. We ordered the Lobster alla Vodka ($38) to share. The menu made no mention of spice, yet the dish arrived noticeably and unexpectedly hot. For one of us it was manageable, but for the other it was simply too spicy to enjoy, and the heat overpowered the lobster. We informed our server promptly and were offered the opportunity to order something else, which we did. However, both dishes remained fully on the bill, despite the original being only partially eaten (about half). At this level and price point, clearer communication and a more guest-focused resolution would be expected. Instead, we left feeling disappointed and regretting the money spent. This felt like a revenue-first decision rather than a hospitality-first one. One and done. I received a response from the owner and, apparently, I am unable to post my reply to his message here -- so I will add it to this review instead. The refusal to acknowledge the nuance of the situation, coupled with the suggestion to "find better options in the area going forward," speaks volumes. It reflects a dismissive attitude toward guest feedback rather than a willingness to improve. We will, of course, take that advice. read more

OK, this is the second time I tried to visit this "restaurant" and enjoy a nice meal. Unfortunately, this did not happen. I came alone this time and sat at the bar, Even though the bartenders were very attentive. It seemed like the kitchen was very poorly ran.. it took 45 minutes for a small appetizer to come out and when it did, it was freezing cold. I asked them to heat it up and that again took another 45 minutes. They did not accommodate in any regards to this. Then bluntly expressed they were done providing any more service to me due to my sexual orientation and a "Trump" supporter. I've never been so disrespected by management or staff in my life. Do not go to this place. It is discriminatory, poorly ran, and the food is worse than day old Olive Garden.. read more

This was at Fiori on Jackson in Knoxville.. Horrible service and rudest person we've ever had. The drinks were so bad and we said something and their response was it's what you ordered, sorry, and walked away! Plus the food was so bad.. and of all things cold at delivery. Hard pass to this place. Don't let the decorations fool you, eat at home before coming here. read more

Fiori is such a cute and aesthetically pleasing restaurant and bar tucked in the Old City of Knoxville! The vibes and decor is so cute and is the ideal place for a girls night or date night. Fiori is definitely on the nicer side, so it's more for a special occasion rather than your everyday place. It's also on the pricey side so be cautious of that. The food is good and I would definitely go again but, I don't think the quality of the food matches its price tag. Our server was amazing the entire night though! She was very attentive and super sweet! I would go back just for her service and the cocktails! read more

The food and beverages were on point; everything came out cooked great and had zero issues with how we ordered everything. The service was really great as well; got to speak with one of the owners for a bit and it was really nice to hear the origin story of this place coming together.

We chose to celebrate our daughter's 21st birthday at Fiori Bar & Lounge, and it was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we walked in, we were captivated by the beautifully curated ambiance--every detail, from the lighting to the decor, felt intentional and inviting. I was inspired by the black velvet furniture and gold pillows, all gorgeously accented by pink in the most aesthetically pleasing way. The food, however, was the real star of the show. Each dish was excellent, prepared exactly as ordered. The Cavatappi Bolognese was chocked full of short rib in a delicious creamy tomato sauce. Everyone at the table agreed that the pork tenderloin was incredible. My daughter loved her salmon dish, and those who ordered beef dishes with sides of lobster and shrimp were impressed by the flavor and how perfectly they were cooked. The attention to detail extended to every aspect of the dining experience. Bianca, our server, was warm, attentive, and genuinely passionate about the menu. Fiori isn't just a place to eat--it's an experience to savor and remember. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or just treating yourself to something exceptional, this is THE place to go. read more

Let me be the first to say, this place is amazing!! The decor is beautiful and very chic, ladies will absolutely LOVE it! Upon entering, my hubby and I, were greeted by a young man at the hostess stand with a warm and friendly smile who noticed us peeking through the windows trying to decide if we wanted to have a drink at the bar or not. He was thrilled that we decided to stop in and so were we. Lots of questions were answered about the place since its opening of 3 weeks. We sat at the bar and were given dining and drink menus. Unfortunately, we had just finished a hardy meal earlier and NO room to spare for bites. So, we sipped on wine and bourbon, both suggested by a very knowledgeable bartender. As we perused the impressive bar shelf, we took in the sights surrounding us, couples conversing, folks enjoying their meals and noticing the attentive service had by all. The establishment is so lovely, I can hardly wait to go back for dinner and more libations. read more

My fiance and I came here to celebrate my birthday. We both had never been here before and were excited to try it from their TT and IG. We got a couple drinks that were recommended by our server and also shared that we were there celebrating my birthday that day. The drinks weren't very good, we shared that we didn't really enjoy them and our server just smiled, gave an awkward laugh and walked away. We didn't make a huge deal about it and just continued on with the evening. The next time she came back we ordered an app and our entrees. It took quite some time for our food to come out. It was not busy at all and I kept watching other tables that arrived after us receive their food. Our entrees finally came out an hour after we ordered and my dish was cold. When we told our waitress, she said "I'll be right back to grab that". There was never an apology about it, she took my plate to the back, didn't say anything or come back and communicate anything about it. After my fiance finished his meal, mine finally came back out. At this point, we have been at this restaurant for an hour and 45 minutes, we have hardly seen our server, and I was ready to leave. I didn't even want my meal. For a restaurant that charges what they do, and as someone who works in customer service/the food industry, I expected more attentiveness/communication from the server. At least an apology about the drinks or even a cold plate would have gone such a long way. Offering to get us different drinks or even comp my meal would have been the bare minimum. After we paid, she said "happy early birthday" which just showed again that she wasn't attentive / listening. I'm not typically one to complain or share negative feedback but there's a level of service that's expected when you go to a restaurant with this kind of price tag. It's cute in there but I didn't even want to share any pictures we took on my social media because I don't want any of my friends to experience this place. read more

It was a good atmosphere and i absolutely loved the drinks. Such a fun vibe and almost like a pregame place. Did not love the food but the owner was absolutely awesome and is looking to improve in any possible. Good customer service great drinks but the food lacks quality read more

BE CAREFUL... Charged $200 for canceling our dinner reservation the morning of. If you make a reservation here and decide to cancel make sure to do it at least 24 hours in advance. On the day of UT graduation, when plenty of people are clamoring to get into this place, they charged us $200 for canceling our reservation the day of. There are plenty of people who will walk in the night of graduation hoping to get a seat and will be extremely happy that we canceled. The rules are the rules I guess, I just want to help others to not make the same mistake we did. And we will never be going to this restaurant in the future just because I obviously don't support this practice. Congrats to all the UT grads!! Update: I see the owner responded, which is great since he is the person who spoke to my wife and told her he was still going to charge us. My wife did start calling at about 10am but it took a few hours for someone to answer the phone. With 60 people being turned away, I would highly recommend that any restaurant create a waiting list in case there are cancelations. Regardless, I'm confident there wasn't an empty seat in the house the entire night. Please let me know if I'm wrong. I actually think it was nice of my wife to say we were too tired. That's sort of true... We canceled because I didn't have the energy for pretentious that night and we just forgot to cancel sooner. Again, this was my fault and this is the restaurant's stated policy. Just a heads up for others. read more

Horrible experience! Went here to try the highly praised charcuterie. The servers had no idea what was on the board and went to ask the kitchen. Chef was apparently not in so the kitchen staff made a charcuterie board of 5 lbs of Genoa salami. $60 later we are out of there with just water and eating part of the charcuterie board. could be much better because the atmosphere and decor is really nice. read more

It's my second time here. My wife and I had drinks at the bar for the first time. This time, we came for dinner. Both times were outstanding. An amiable hostess met us at the door. Because there was going to be a party with a DJ at the bar, she sat us further away in the dining room. The aesthetic is amazing. The place is one of the most tastefully decorated in Knoxville. It's cozy, it's modern, and it's classy. We received excellent service from our server throughout our meal. He never forgot us. I had a glass of their Cabernet, which was very good. A nice fruity taste without being too sweet. I started with a half Ceasar salad. It was a typical recipe, but good. For my main course, I had pasta in Bolognese sauce. It was the most unique Bolognese I've had. Instead of ground beef, they used short rib, prime rib, and bacon! It was advertised as creamy, and it did not disappoint. The flavor was amazing. The portions are sized right for one person, IMO. I finished my entire meal. Then, my wife and I shared the Brown Butter Cake. A perfect way to end the meal. It's sized correctly for a single serving but works great for sharing when you just want a little something sweet. It had a lemony custard on top that set it apart from others. And the gender-neutral restrooms are designed just as tasteful as the restaurant. An overall positive experience, and one I can confidently recommend. read more
