In the ongoing saga of trying to find a restaurant that works for all three of us: my vegan wife, me (a very NOT vegan) and our picky 8-year old, tonight's episode took place at Fiammé in downtown Naperville. Its very hard to find spots that can accommodate our very particular palates, and even more hard to find good vegan options outside of the city. Thats why I was excited to find this lovely Italian restaurant. The parking lot is small but there's a good amount of sidestreet parking. The inside is warm, cozy and super clean (including the restrooms ). The hospitality stood out right away. The owners and wait staff were very welcoming, and our server was fantastic; honest (which I appreciate), knew the menu well, and once she realized our situation, gave us some wonderful direction on what to order. I wouldn't say that the menu is overwhelming, but I rarely go to a restaurant where it takes me that long to decide what I want. There are lots of interesting options, from braised short rib ravioli to baked ziti, and several tasty appetizers (highly recommend the calamari). But we had come for the PIZZA. My daughter got the kids cheese pizza. It was surprisingly bigger than we thought, and at a great price. The kid only ate half before she said, "I like it...this might be better than [insert famous Chicago pizza brand]." (you MUST KNOW that this is high praise from a 3rd grader). My wife ordered the "They Don't Have Beef With Me" vegan Detroit-style pizza, and I have to admit, it was very good. Somehow they pulled off a buttery (but not butter) crust with melty vegan cheese (but NOT cheese ). Absolutely nailed it. I would have eaten more of hers if I hadn't ordered the Butcher pizza from the wood-fired menu. It was OUTSTANDING. Great flavor, perfect texture. Easily one of thee best wood-fired pizzas I've ever had. We're not drinkers, but they do have a good wine list and some nice zero-proof options, including the Amber Apple and The Drip. We didn't make it to dessert, mostly because the portions are generous, so our bellies (and our to-go boxes) were full. We will definitely be back to try other menu options and for dessert. If your family or friend group includes picky palates or dietary restrictions (the pizzas can be made gluten-free as well), then run...don't walk...to Fiammé. 100/10 recommend. read more

Very cute on the inside with the string lights and cozy feel and I'm sure would be wonderful sitting outside when it's nice out. Make sure to make a reservation because they do get busy, and not be in a hurry because it is smaller inside so you may have to wait after your reservation time to be seated depending on table availability. The food was delicious - we started with the mozzarella sticks - SO GOOD. I ordered the vegetable wood fired pizza and it was good, my husband ordered the Detroit Style double pepperoni and it was also very yummy. The portion sizes are generous so we both ended up taking half of ours home. We are definitely coming back again, I want to try the Fiamme Special firewood pizza! read more

I haven't been here in years but I suggested Lou Malnatti's and everyone else said Fiamme so I went along for the ride. The food was excellent, they have a great selection of beers, they have table/booths and the best server in the world, Frank. He was a real "fun guy". We will visit again soon and will, definitely, ask for Frank's station again. Thanks for a great Tuesday night. read more

We got there when they opened and the parking was not very good. The building itself and inside was super nice and clean and they had a nice patio that we couldn't be on because it was raining. The service was great from our waiter and from the host. We got everything we needed when we wanted it. Everybody really liked their food. I got the Detroit style cheese pizza, which was delicious and very filling. My mom got the chicken Parm, which I had some, and it was very good. The chicken itself was thinner with more breading, which I like, because I don't like the big thick chicken in my opinion. My sister got the short rib ravioli, which she said was amazing. I didn't take a picture because the way they put the sauce you can't really see the food. My dad got the other Pizza that I didn't put a caption for which he enjoyed and so did my mom. At the end, we got a surprise because it was on my birthday. They brought us funnel cake nachos which were really good and even though we were all full, we devoured it. Oh, and one of the really good things we had too, which I did not take a picture of or can't find it was the raspberry lemon cello martini, which was absolutely divine. read more

Not gonna lie I always think of Fiamme as a pizza place but their eggplant Parmesan was the best I have found in a while! Being a vegetarian, I'm always looking for something enjoyable that isn't just a salad or a side dish. This was one of my favorite dinners I've had in a while. It was also a big portion so I had leftovers to eat again for lunch the next day. It was a great place to meet some old coworkers and we sat outside on the patio in the spring. The service was great and I plan to bring my family next time. read more

Came here on a Saturday evening. Service was get the waiter was very friendly and the outdoor and indoor setting was cute. Drink (the drip) 1/5: I would recommend muddling the black berries to get more of the flavor otherwise it just tasted like minty soda water. Food 2/5 Veggie zucchini 2/5: the breading was thin which I don't mind but would probably try something different next time. Baked Zita 2/5: this was okay I was looking for a little more flavor. The mushroom and chicken were good in it but everything else was mediocre Pizza (the Sicilian) 3/5: the sauce and pepperoni were good on the pizza but we preferred jets instead. Overall if you are looking for good Italian j in would go to Gia Mia's. read more

First time back to Fiamme since they opened and had a decent meal, but noticed stark differences since the last time I dined there. Their menu is smaller, with less Neapolitan pizza options but they have both ted and white (plain) pizza options available. They have some of the typical staples and I also noticed they now have Detroit style pizza which was not available a long time ago. My husband and I both tried the Detroit style - I had the Sicilian and he had the one night stand. Both were heavy, too heavy in my opinion. You can definitely split 1. We eyed a couple of appetizers and settled on the truffle mozzarella sticks which were decent as well. Cute ambiance, parking lot is very limited so park accordingly. read more

Came in with a group of 9. Indoor seating is a really cute, rustic vibe - big bar area and tables for seating! Our server was really sweet and patient - accidentally knocked over water but we had the cloth and mats quickly replaced :) Wood fired roasted veggie pizza - the toppings are floppy and can fall off, but our crust was crispy enough to hold it up. It wasn't too salty and the balsamic glaze went well with the cheese, and they don't skimp on the marinara! Detroit style pizza - was delicious! The honey added a nice touch, but the ricotta was the best part Wood fired Margherita pizza - the tomato sauce had very good flavor. Crust was thicker than I have had with other Margherita pizzas, but tasted good Spicy vodka pasta - pasta was el dente, again enough sauce - cheese toppings was tasty but could have been all over the pasta for even spread, more creamy than spicy but they have Tabasco! Bake ziti Al Fiamme - was good but got diarrhea! Calamari salad - delicious, great balance of flavors Margaritas - yummy! They give you a lot with generous rim Really appreciated having vegan options on the menu for pizza other than salad - we would encourage even more options to choose from or more variation! Overall, we definitely enjoyed our experience and would come back! read more

Ambiance is cute. Portions decent, food was just adequate. Too pricey for what it is. Mozzarella sticks are really good. Lasagna was eh. I got the special oven pizza. Pizza crust is good. Felt like a salad on top of cheese. Little Caesars is better than their Detroit style lol. Blackened salmon pasta was fine. Server was polite. Service was a little slow but in fairness we were outside. Considering it's in Naperville and there's a dozen choices within three blocks. I wouldn't come back read more

We have been to this restaurant for my birthday dinner recently. They offered free bread service. The ambience was decent and it's good that their patio is open for summer, although the seating is not comfortable. We are vegetarians and we customised all the items without meat and fish. The Detroit style pizza was burnt on the edges, the pasta was undercooked, and the pesto linguine came with shrimp despite telling them to remove meat. The arancini was decent. Overall, the experience was not very great. Hope they improve. read more

Been here a few times and it's been delicious every time! We've had a bunch of the pizzas and last night got the chicken Parmesan and omg so good! We've sat indoors once and it was really cute. We also came with our pup and sat on the patio a couple times too and it's wonderful outside. Love the huts outside in the summer and the igloo in the winter for options! The servers were so sweet and friendly and nice to our dog Chucky too! Highly recommend! And we'll be back again soon!! read more

Parking wraps around the building and some in street parking. They have several vegan and vegetarian options and has become our go to on a e for pizzas the service is always quick and friendly. The don't have a beef with me pizza as a Detroit style pizza takes a while to bake, so order appetizers or a salad if hungry. There is always music going, does not always go with an Italian style food and seems like would be a happening place at night. read more

Honestly I don't understand why my wife and I got reallly crappy seats when there were plenty of nice seats available.

Nice cozy restaurant. This is my second time going but first time during restaurant week. The food was great and the servings were plentiful for the price. Not a lot of parking but there is a parking garage a block away. A definite must if you in the mood for some good pizza. read more

I'm so glad we were able to take some friends from out of town to Fiammé. They flew in from New York with two young kids (one was an infant) and we brought our baby as well. I called ahead to make a same-day reservation and they were able to accommodate us on a Friday night and in we strolled with two strollers, four adults, and three kids to a table in the back corner. Our server was really sweet and answered all of our questions about the menu. This is what we ordered to share between the adults: Hot Honey Rosemary Wings Fiammé House Salad Detroit-style pizza: Tuscan Chicken Pesto Wood-fired pizza: Diavolo My husband and I each got a cocktail and our friends each ordered a glass of red wine. We had a great time catching up over good food, and the ambiance and atmosphere was great for a night out, even with kids! It's no surprise this spot is a local favorite and has so many positive reviews. If you're looking for wood-fired pizzas, and other Italian dishes, look no further than Fiammé. They list their food menu by antipasti, insalate, pasta, wood-fired pizzas and Detroit-style pizzas. We were so stuffed after sharing several apps and pies that we didn't have room for dessert. The Detroit-style pizza was delicious, their crust was phenomenal! I would come back here in a heart beat to try more pizza. I highly recommend this spot, they are kid-friendly, an easy five stars! read more

Visited once a few years ago and last night finally returned...my family and I all agreed the meal, ambiance, and service was 10/10! We thoroughly enjoyed every dish - the house salad (tomatoes on there were seasoned and SO delicious), fried zucchini with spicy aioli, unbeleafable wood fired pizza (the crust was so puffy and chewy!), and the Detroit style vegan meat pizza. Everything was bursting with flavor, you wouldn't tell the pizzas were vegan. Plus the outdoor seating was very nice and service was fast. We will be back soon! read more

The pizza tasted really good, but make sure you look up pictures first because we were not expecting the portion to be on the smaller side. One Detroit pizza feeds 2 people. The house salad was very good. The kids menu has good options. read more

Waitress was so sweet and helpful. The outdoor seating was so great. Seats for couples or large groups outside. I had the market salad with salmon and it was awesome. Hubs salad with breaded chicken was also great. They have gluten free pastas and gluten free pizzas too- we WILL be back! read more

Abby is the reason for my 5 star review. My sister has celiac disease and must avoid even the slightest trace of gluten. Fiamme not only offers gluten free options, but have a dedicated area in their kitchen to prepare them. Abby was the best server, very informed and friendly. We all had the Detroit crust pizzas, and it was incredible. We finished with the gluten free cheesecake, I recommend. The restaurant had cute decor, tinkle lights and vines strung above. They offered nice outdoor seating and heat lamps. Parking is sparse in their lot, but we found free and close street parking. We will definitely be back. read more

It was a very easy process to make a reservation. We had a very attentive server during dinner who noticed when drinks were low and asked if we wanted more. Empty plates and were removed quickly! We ordered the burrata appetizer and it was delicious! Excellent flavor pairings! The sausage rigatoni pasta was very flavorful and had a great amount of sauce! The lighting was good and the volume of music was perfect! Highly recommend this place. They also have a great outdoor space for warmer weather! read more

Came here for Naperville restaurant week at 4:30pm. It was a good restaurant week menu/offer for $28. Here's what I had: Arancini: two large balls, perfect serving size. Great flavor. I really enjoyed this appetizer. Short rib ravioli with vodka sauce: my biggest issue was that it was cold and served before I was done with the appetizer. They weren't even busy so it shouldn't have been served cold. The flavors were just ok. Chocolate lava cake: very average, kind of dry. Thought it would have a stronger chocolate flavor. Lemon cake: tasty and refreshing (tried some of my husbands) My son had a sausage pizza. It was just ok. As soon as it got cold it wasn't good. Just tasted soggy. My favorite part was the crust. read more

I would give 0 if that were an option. We have eaten at Fiamme many times over the years - inside, and have always enjoyed the food and atmosphere - service is so-so but we know that. Tonight we got pizzas to-go. Absolutely the worst pizza i have ever paid for in my life (including college). Wife got GF Fiamme Pizza and I had Salsiccia. There was no cheese, crusts were not well done and toppings scarce. I do not intend this as a hit piece - as mentioned - we have had excellent food while dining in - but I can not let this TOGO experience go unsaid. Especially since 2 pies were over $65. Absolute Joke - they should be ashamed read more

Boy is the food just so tasty and unique ci had the rigatoni pasta which was mouth watering after sharing an appetizer of wings The service was outstanding and very pleasant the server came over to check in us in a very professional manner Go you will enjoy read more

Cute and cozy place! First time visiting this establishment. Being in downtown Naperville, parking sucks the restaurant has a lot that accommodates only about 6-7 cars due to their large outdoor patio seating otherwise you're parking down the street. Staff was friendly. We did the calamari as an appetizer and the crumbled sausage and mushroom pizza everything was tasty. I did have the pineapple mule it wasn't the best to me but overall a nice experience. I would try it again! read more

I love their new beer of the month, a the Noon Whistle Gummysaurus and I can never pass up an opportunity for a Johnny Walker on the rocks; black or when introducing someone to Scotch, I start with Blue. The Baked Salmon Carbonizatto is incredible. When I'm with the guys, though, it's a Detroit Sicilian pizza. Love the patio during the spring and summer as they have a band on the weekend. read more

pretty good the ravioli was meat got vodka sauce not very spicy pizza was pretty good Cesar salad was alright read more

Heard good things about this place so I decided to give it a shot. Parking can be difficult as there aren't many spots and limited street parking because of the construction. I got lucky and was able to find a spot in their lot. When you walk in, you go through their outdoor seating area which has plenty of options. Great spot to go when the weather is nice. The bar is immediately next to the host station where I decided to sit. The bartender was very helpful and attentive. I've heard good things about their Detroit style pizza so I decided to go with the Sicilian. This is a Detroit style pizza with pepperoni, sausage, and bacon. The presentation of the pizza when it came out was great. It had the nice crispy crust and swirls of ricotta cheese on top. The taste of the pizza was great. Decent flavor of the sauce and the slices were heavy. The crust was nice and crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Overall, I enjoyed my experience here and would make another visit when I'm in the area. read more

My family came out for a birthday and this was our first time here even though we've lived in Naperville forever. We all really loved it! The portions were generous, pizzas can definitely be shared by two and my moms chicken parmesan was huge. My other sisters salmon pasta was yummy and tasted lighter. However, we all agreed that my truffle pasta was the best. I would loveee to see that as a permanent menu item it was to die for!! The vibe is decently nice and nothing too fancy. The service was good and waters stayed filled. Can't wait to come back! read more

The pizza here is fire I'm sure this place is bumping on a weekend evening in the summer! The woodfire pizzas are outstanding.... Every one of them! Any pizza will not disappoint! The Detroit style pizzas are good, but it's just that you only get 4 slices which is a little expensive per the cost. I'll definitely be back here for the service and the Woodfire pizzas! The caramel macchiato was also very good as my desert. Quality and taste - check, Service check, Environment and ambiance - check, price- on the higher end, parking - street which is OK. I'll definitely be back as the Woodfire pizzas are comparable to the best that I've had in the city! read more

Not the greatest location on a busy street with no parking. We parked not far in the parking garage. We made reservations and were greeted and sat promptly. But, there was a dirty cloth napkin on the table...weird. Service was good. We ordered truffled mozzarella sticks ( $14), which came with 2 tasty sauces. I didn't taste any truffle at all though. We wanted to try 2 different items, so we chose the Detroit style pizza and the chicken parmesan. The chicken parmesan was meh. However the pizza was very good! Loved the crispy edges and the whipped ricotta on top. No room for dessert. read more

Fiammé - Chicken parmesan was meh...but the Detroit pizza is delicious - Pizza Near Me - Naperville, Illinois

We had a very enjoyable lunch with their outdoor seating over the summer on a Saturday: 1) Our toddler girls were provided with high chairs, crayons, coloring paper, and glasses of water with lids before we even requested them. 2) Menus can be viewed from our phone via scanning the QR code so that is super convenient and prohibits paper waste. 3) We ordered three items to share: veggie frites, funghi pizza, and shrimp pesto linguine. The food was quick to arrive and the portions were standard. When both adults and toddlers enjoyed the food, it is an automatic guarantee of a return! Our girls typically enjoy pizza and pasta so it was not out of the ordinary for them to dig into those. But to my amazement, they also enjoyed the veggie frites. Anyway to sneak in some veggies especially for a carb-packed meal is a huge plus! read more

Went for the first time last week with some friends. Super cute atmosphere; we ate inside in a cozy booth, but I can see how the outside seating would be nice as well. Our server was very attentive and did a great job of recommending dishes to order. We ordered a lot because we couldn't decide AND WHY MISS OUT??? I ordered the shrimp and pesto linguine and the One Night Stand Detroit style pizza. Ok the linguine was so freaking delicious I actually slowed down to eat it (I'm a server and I tend to inhale my food because I'm not used to eating leisurely), it was **heavenly** and I would go back specifically for this. The pizza was good in the restaurant, but I took 90% of it to go, and it didn't reheat well. I'm not sure how I feel about the burnt cheese perimeter. One of my friends got a wedge salad and the chocolate lava cake for dinner. Don't judge. She adored both. read more

Not the best Italian food you can get in Naperville but definitely not the worst. We ordered the calamari and it was OK. The spicy pasta was good but not the best you can get in Naperville. Probably should've got the pizza because that seems like what they're known for. The service was good no issues there and the ambience is nice inside but parking is a bit difficult but expected. read more

Outside hut dining and fine food. Pizza and wine was right for the night. Friends had had joined and want to go back.

I went with family to Fiammé. My granddaughters love wood fire pizza. The restaurant is nicely decorated and a lovely outdoor setting for better weather. Today it's very cold! The we were seated quickly and given menus and the waitress was prompt with our menus and drinks. We were there on a Friday early evening so not busy yet. We ordered a classic Cesar salad for the table and given Italian bread. Standard salad, it was good. I ordered the blackened Salmon Carbizzatto with rigatoni in a cream sauce. It was very good. I could have used more sauce to enhance the flavor of the salmon which was cooked perfect. My husband and our son ordered the Detroit style pizzas, which is a pan pizza with cheese crusts. My husband ordered The Mootz; My son had the Sicilian. Both liked their pizzas. The girls ordered traditional wood fire pizzas with a thin crust. Everyone enjoyed their meal. I would recommend this place and bring your appetite and a friend. read more

Good pizza. They have gluten free pizza for people with Celiacs disease. I would try the mushroom pizza.

I want to first say that this place is a little pricey. With that price, you get some extra tasty brick oven pizza. You get some of the best service. You have amazing oils with your bread. The pizza has always been great. I've tried every red pizza. Their sausage has an amazing flavor. The Salsiccia Pizza is a favorite. Also the Margherita Pizza, Diavolo Pizza & the butcher! The wings are great too. read more
