Bolognese
Micayla N.

This a cute Italian-Korean restaurant located in The Source! We came at around 7pm on a Friday and got seated right away. They have a lot of seating both inside and on the outside patio. Service was very attentive and friendly. The meal starts with complimentary bread that is similar to pita bread served with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. We ordered a caesar salad, shrimp rose pasta, and bolognese. The shrimp rose pasta was our favorite with such a creamy and flavorful sauce and perfectly cooked shrimp, and we could see why it's popular here! We thought the bolognese sauce was really sweet, which was unexpected, and that dish ended up being our least favorite.

This is a cute little restaurant. We got seated quickly on a Saturday brunch/lunch time. They were incredibly kind to our toddler as well though he made a huge mess! The food was good and easily shareable. I thought the portions sizes were fair as well. The arugula smoked salmon salad was lovely and a great shareable dish. The funghi pizza was also yummy but I wish the crust was a tad more crunchy. The lemon butter shrimp was probably my favorite thing since it was the most favorable. The calamari was standard~ The free bread the beginning was piping hot and great! Just fyi... The bathroom doesn't have a changing table or any surface to change babies.

Complimentary bread and sauce (balsamic vinegar and olive oil)

Interior felt kind of quiet but there's a slight buzz. I've seen many families dine here with their children. Family friendly restaurant. There are booster seats available. Margarita pizza: So good, the marina sauce was rich, flavorful and light on the pizza. Cheese was light and gooey to the touch. The crust didn't fall down. Calamari: Breading was crispy and light in batter. Calamari was more bouncy than soft. Tip: If you want to dine indoors around 5-6 PM there is option to sign yourself up on the yelp waitlist on your phone before arriving here. However wait time to get seated took about 10 mins tops. I think if you want to sit in the outdoor patio you might need to call in for a reservation.

Shrimp Carbonara pasta

A while back, my family & I came here to celebrate my mom's birthday. We really enjoyed the food. The complimentary bread w/ the vinegar dipping sauce is delicious! Everything we ordered was well-made & flavorful. My main criticism is the service on busier days. The food can take quite a while to come out. The staff is kind, but could be slightly more attentive on busier days, as it can be harder to flag them down for help. I've also ordered takeout a few times & they're more timely, usually having it ready within 30 minutes. The dining area has a nice atmosphere, clean modern look but the bathrooms don't match quite match. Being a lady, I personally prefer a cleaner bathroom however it is accessible & that's all you really need for a restaurant. Overall, I'd recommend the food, especially the bread & dipping sauce.

Korean-Italian fusion food is bomb! Located inside the source on the top floor with a nice balcony for a nice view of the blue sky. The interior design is a vibe and very modern. I like how they implemented marble to some of their furniture like the bar table and the pillars. We got two pasta, wine, and free complimentary bread. Yeah, I know it's very carby, but the flavor profile is all there. The Rose pasta was my favorite because it had a nice touch of creaminess and savoriness. The bread that kinda looks like a Naan is fluffy and soft on to chew on. Doesn't hurt your jaw like most crispy bread. The wine was okay, I forgot the brand, but it was too dry and not bold enough for our palate. Still a good cleanse for each bite of the noodles. If you got a date night, or wanna take your family here, It's totally worth it! My girl and I had a good time vibing and munching, lol.

You be caught off guard seeing an Italian Restaurant in the Source, but don't be mistaken as their food is delicious. I will say to some their portions may be on the smaller side, but to me their portions are just the right size. They have both inside and outdoor seating which both are comfortable. Their employees are helpful and are always present if you are in need of assistance.

Bread
Sam M.

Came here for lunch for the first time and loved this place! Great spot for Italian! We got their calamari, cheese pizza, shrimp rose pasta, funghi pizza, and chicken Alfredo! Their shrimp rose pasta and funghi pizza was our favorite! Place is nice and clean and workers are very professional! It is a little pricey though! Great place to eat here in the source!

funghi pizza
Ellen K.

Beautifully decorated Italian place in the center for the Source Mall! We were sad that they didn't have their Seafood Salad when we went, but all of the other dishes were very rich and delicious. My favorite was the funghi pizza! Portions are moderately sized, and the bread is a nice flatbread style.

Complimentary bread--love!
Eunhae H.

I'm a big pan of a pizza dough that has a nice, chewy texture. And I love pink sauces for my pastas. This place does them both for me! Il Fiora is on the top floor at the Source Mall. They have a beautiful outside seating and pretty indoor seating. I usually see people reserving the outside area for a special event (bridal shower, graduation party, etc.). My all-time favorite items to get here are the Gamberetto Rosa/Shrimp Pasta, Carbonara, and Funghi Pizza. When you order an entree, you get their complimentary fluffy, airy bread which is the same dough used for their pizzas. I've also tried the Il Fiora Cioppino, Gorgonzola Pizza (which comes with honey), Spicy & Honey Pizza (has pepperoni, jalapeño, and honey) and the Bistecca Di Controfiolletto (USDA Prime Rib-eye). Service here is great! You order through their tablet, or if assistance is needed, a server helps take the order. When you're craving a rose (pink sauce) pasta in the OC area, and want to walk around and sightsee/shop, this place is the spot!

Carbonara 10/10 *add the shrimp*
Chrystina B.

WOW. I AM SPEECHLESS. THE FOOD IS INCREDIBLE! Although I'm not from around here, some of my colleagues are locals and were looking to have a little work gathering with pasta. Food: 5/5 I just want to say I am NOT a pasta girl, so keep that in mind. I tried the carbonara with shrimp, and oh my goodness. It was truly fantastic! The sauce was rich, the noodles were cooked to perfection, and that homemade bread! Oh my goodness! It was a 10. Service: 5/5 The staff is incredibly friendly, the ambiance is lovely, and I definitely intend to return. All around: I give this place a solid 10. The only con would be finding the place, LOL. It's on the third floor and it can be a bit confusing. However-After the small workout, the pasta ends up being guilt free!!!!

Second time at Il Fiora in Buena Park, and we came back for one reason--the carbonara. It's surprisingly hard to find a spot that serves it with the egg yolk on top, so having a place nearby that does it right keeps us coming back. Still just as good as we remembered. We also shared a margherita pizza, which was delicious, and ended up with plenty of leftovers (always a win). Paired everything with a nice Pinot Noir, and it made for a great meal overall. We did come pretty close to closing time, so service wasn't quite as strong as the first visit--but it also wasn't very busy, so it seemed like they were just wrapping up for the night. Nothing that would stop us from coming back though. The food definitely holds up, and we'll be back again.

Gorgonzola pizza with honey
Ana C.

Came here for a girls' night and it ended up being such a sweet, cozy experience. We were seated by a window which gave the whole evening a whimsical, slightly romantic vibe -- perfect for catching up with friends. We ordered the Gorgonzola pizza, Pomodoro pasta, and garlic mushroom risotto to share. The pizza was beautifully balanced with the richness of the cheese and a light drizzle of warm honey that tied everything together. The Pomodoro pasta was generously mixed with seafood and the noodles were perfectly al dente. The garlic risotto was creamy and comforting, loaded with mushrooms and plenty of garlic flavor. Service was warm and attentive without hovering -- they checked in just enough while still letting us enjoy our conversation. Great food, thoughtful service, and a cozy ambiance made it a really lovely night. Definitely a spot I'd come back to for another dinner with friends.

Ravioli crema
Kirsten S.

Restaurant is located on the 4th floor. Parking garage is free but was busy at 6:30pm on a Friday night No wait for 4 people Server was super sweet but she wasn't super attentive but she also had many tables to serve so I felt bad for her and wasn't her fault. We had to wave her doe multiple times for refills of our drinks, she forgot our Parmesan cheese too Food came out relatively fast Food was 4/5 stars. Pizzas were medium sized. Nothing special. Crusts were thin. Pastas were flavorful. They didn't have ravioli bolognese or the other red sauce available. Ambiance inside and outside was really nice and new and modern and clean I probably wouldn't come back here

The cashier told me that they had a cancellation of a pepperoni party pizza and asked if I wanted that. I asked her how long ago was the cancellation and she told me about an hour ago. I thought about it for a moment and I told her I didn't want that pizza and I wanted a fresh one. She proceeded to tell me that it would be ready in about 20 or so minutes. I had the strange feeling as I sat in my car outside waiting that we were going to end up getting that old Pizza that was out who knows how long. So about 10 minutes in, I went back into the restaurant and the girl told me the pizza was ready. I asked if that was the pepperoni pizza that she offered to me earlier and she said no. I then asked her if I could see the old Pizza that she had originally offered me and she proceeded to tell me that it was thrown away. I then asked her I wanted to see the old pizza in the trash , because I didn't believe her. I believed that they just dressed up that old Pizza that was sitting out who knows for how long and was trying to pass it off as a fresh pizza. She then told me that a coworker had thrown it in the trash outside of the building so once again, I asked to see it and she said she didn't know where it was... so I basically confronted her and told her that that's the old Pizza but she wouldn't admit it . I asked for a refund which I got and then oddly enough, she still offered to give me the pizza! I refused it , not interested in possibly poisoning my family. At that point, I was just pissed, disgusted and had to make other dinner plans and decided to never return. We had been ordering from this pizza place for about the last six years and it's been awesome or at least we thought we were getting fresh pizzas but at this point who knows. We will not be returning to this pizza place and we go elsewhere for party pizzas. And if you want a really good party Pizza, it's a bit of a drive , but go to Big E Pizza in Signal Hill - totally worth the money and the drive and it is made fresh!

Each slice is $3.75, or you can get two slices for $7.50 plus tax, so there's really no discount. I paid cash and noticed I was charged $7.99 for two slices instead of the advertised $7.50. I pointed it out to the man who took my order, but he insisted I wasn't overcharged. I even showed him the menu and the payment screen, where you could clearly see the discrepancy (see photos), but he was dismissive and said the register never makes mistakes. I had a long day at work and wasn't about to argue over less than a dollar. Still, it's the principle. Charging customers more than the posted price and refusing to acknowledge it is not okay. It made my experience very disappointing. As for the food, we ordered two pepperoni slices, one pepperoni and mushroom, and one ham and pineapple. The toppings were good, but this is definitely not New York-style pizza. The crust was overcooked and so dry that it was close to tasting like cardboard. I wouldn't recommend this place. If you do decide to eat here, pay close attention to the price you're charged and ask for a receipt.

The Napoli calzone was new to me with the cheesy topping, it was the sandwich pizza you'd always wanted, the size is big but very attainable. Plenty of free parking in the back if you come at the right time. And Italian dessert options if you're craving for more after!
