TLDR; It was good, but I don't think we would be coming back. Service was a solid 4.5 stars. We had everything we needed and the table was managed well. There was ample staff. But there was a slight complacency in the air. The staff lacked the hunger and drive that makes a restaurant truly great. Ambiance was great, another 4.5 stars. The food fell short of the mark, most certainly below the prices paid. The pork chop was beautifully cooked, but under seasoned and the sauce accompaniment was reminiscent of A1 steak sauce, and it just didn't work. The mash potato side (and additional $16) was somewhat bland and grainy. It tasted as though it was cut with a root such, as a turnip, which made me long for that true Idaho potato taste. Another diner had the eggplant Parmesan, which was well prepared, but slightly under seasoned. We also had a pasta dish that was too al dente, to the point of being crunchy. The experience was fine, we do not regret going. But I wouldn't be in a hurry to return. read more

The wife and I have watched Chef Rescigno on Food Network for the last several years. We figured we would come up and spend our anniversary in Sun Valley and eat at her restaurant. This experience was freaking awesome. We were within feet of Britt for our whole meal. We made reservations for the Chef counter and got to watch Chef Britt run the kitchen.... And it was amazing!! The menu changes monthly, the food is delicious!!!! We got two appetizers, two entrees, two desserts, and we each had a couple drinks. The bill wasn't as bad as we thought it was going to be.... And was pleasantly surprised when we got our bill. We will definitely be back to eat here!! Everyone was pleasant, our waitress Michelle was awesome suggesting great options for our meal and drinks.... read more

What a disappointment. After reading glowing praise in national food magazines, I was genuinely excited to treat my moms to a special birthday dinner here. Both of them are chefs, so I'm very intentional about choosing restaurants for occasions like this. Based on everything we had read, we expected an exceptional experience. The smoked bread arrived first. It was interesting -- subtly smoky and intriguing -- and it made us curious about what would follow, though slightly cautious about how heavily smoke might feature in the meal. Unfortunately, when the Brussels sprouts were served, our excitement quickly faded. The first bite was overwhelmingly smoky to the point that it tasted like an ashtray. They were simply inedible. We politely shared this feedback with the manager, whose response was surprising: "Yes, a couple people have mentioned that tonight." That was the extent of it. There was no offer to replace the dish, remove it from the bill, or extend any gesture of hospitality. At this price point, I expect both culinary excellence and attentive service. The remainder of the meal was underwhelming and did little to recover the experience. We were seated next to the chef's counter and noticed that the owner/chef kept her back to the guests the entire evening, interacting only to hand over plates. For a restaurant that positions itself as elevated and experiential, the lack of warmth was striking. Overall, the evening felt cold -- both in hospitality and in execution. Sadly, it did not live up to the reputation. There are many wonderful, welcoming restaurants in Ketchum that deliver both excellent food and genuine hospitality. I would recommend exploring those instead. read more

Incredible food, service, and atmosphere. What more could you want? I guess... an impressive bar program and an extensive wine list? That, too. It's a must-visit spot in Sun Valley. The pork was incredible (as was the gelato), but the menu changes... so just ask for staff favorites! read more

KK was an absolutely amazing server. The food was absolutely amazing. We tried the signature dish pasta, osso bucco, and the wood fired filet. I would get the pasta dish over and over again before the filet! The place was clean, quiet, classy. I really liked how the chef brought out the food personally too you. Very good vibes here.

My wife surprised me for an anniversary dinner and we arrived on a Friday night and were seated at the Chef's Table!! SO very cool. Turns out the couple sitting next to us were old family friends which was a treat! They wrote an amazing Congratulations card for us and gave us a couple glasses of complementary, non-alcoholic bevs which we used to toast out wonderful evening. Service was outstanding. Everyone checked in on us but not in a weird, intrusive way. Just lots of joy. In order of our favorites: Brussels Frittata are freaking outstanding. I actually don't even like Brussels sprouts. Wifey is GF, Veg and doesn't eat refined sugar so this was her dish but I definitely scarfed down a few! Focaccia was baked perfectly, the honey butter was fab. Such a fan! Carrots were a favorite of my wife, she loved 'em. Mashed Potatoes were so yum but just a tinged salty for me. Anolini: I actually didn't finish this dish cuz it was too salty and the pasta was a little hard but I'm sure that was probably a fluke. I'd definitely go back. The owners were warm and present with the guests. There's a fabulous heated outdoor seating area to hang out at. read more

Food delicious. Chef's counter was really fun. Had great food and staff was delightful. Everything fresh, quick, great well seasoned flavors match with a good wine list. Unfortunately, we could only stay until the next seating. read more

A truly magical experience. Thank you Chef Britt and staff. We made reservations (don't go without them) and were promptly seated upon arrival. We decided to skip wine and drink Peroni beer tonight given that we were ordering a few spicy dishes. We started with cold Peroni and two apps. We shared the Trista salad and Octopus. I now know what separates top tier chefs from the rest of the pack. Both dishes were amazing. The Trista was light and flavorful with sprinkles of prosciutto, garbanzos , roasted peppers and adorned with Gorgonzola vinaigrette. Amazing! The Octopus was just as good with small pieces of octopus, bravas-style potatoes and a fennel aioli. The sauce at the base consisted of a spicy, smoky chipotle. It's such a complex dish with smokey flavors one second followed by spice the next. For entrees we chose the Elk Back-strap and Chef Britt's meatballs. The meatballs were literally melt in your mouth and the Elk was delicious paired with Calabrian butter. If you are in town and have the chance to dine at Fiamma, run, don't walk. I'm confident that this restaurant will eventually require reservations weeks in advance. read more

@chef_rescigno I had the absolute pleasure to meet the one and only Chef Butter Daddy tonight at her amazing restaurant Fiamma. She was kind, humble, and such a badass. She took the time to chat with me at length, let me fan girl for pictures, even allowing me into the kitchen, and then went above and beyond sending us some extra surprises throughout the meal. A class act through and through. A big shout out to her wife, also a rockstar, her entire staff, and their absolute attention to every detail. read more

This is a wonderful addition to the restaurant scene in Ketchum/Sun Valley. Starting with the meatball appetizer... this was a great start along with a not so dirty martini, which could've been a little dirtier for my liking. Next up was the little gem Caesar salad, which was delightful with a crunchy, crouton topping, freshly grated Parmesan, and even a side of anchovies. I would come back just for the meatball and the salad at the bar with a glass of wine and be happy as a clam. Hubby had the Osso Buco, which he thoroughly loved. Served on a bed of creamy polenta along with bone marrow and a tiny fork to extract it. But here's where the meal went south... The eggplant Parm was so disappointing. It was a whole eggplant breaded, fried and fanned in a shallow dish of fresh marinara with just sprinkling of grated Parmesan. I love a deconstructed moment, but this was a miss. It was so dry and without flavor. I could only eat a few bites. (And was thankful for the Caesar and meatballs earlier.) Maybe a side of marinara for dipping could have saved it? This was a miss in my opinion. Honest feedback for the chef... pull this off the menu and rework the eggplant parm to be a bit more saucy and cheesy in the traditional sense. But all in all, Fiamma is a gorgeous restaurant. Impeccable service. And a destination restaurant for a date or special occasion. X read more

Wonderful service, and absolutely delicious. Tiramisu was as good as advertised, which is to say that it's a must-try. The ice cream was also surprisingly good. Simple flavors, not too sweet, and the toppings gave it variety. Duck pasta was also a huge hit--the pasta had great texture, and there were enough flavors to keep each bite engaging. Only slight letdown was the bolognese, which was saltier than expected. Wish we were hungrier so we could try even more dishes! read more

Fiamma - Italian Near Me - Ketchum, Idaho

Fiamma in Sun Valley is truly something special. Founded by two incredibly talented chefs, this restaurant delivers on every level. The food was exceptional--the layers of flavor in each dish were thoughtful and beautifully executed. True to its name, Fiamma ("little flame"), the live-fire cooking adds a depth and warmth that elevates everything. We started with the octopus--perfectly tender with just a hint of that live-fire flavor. The focaccia was fresh and delicious on its own, and the burrata was accompanied by beautiful seasonal vegetables and a mouthwatering truffle honey. The local elk and bison meatballs were rich and satisfying, and sharing the tomahawk steak among six was such a fun experience--cooked absolutely to perfection. My family and I especially appreciated the focus on local ingredients--not just for the incredible flavor, but for the way it supports nearby farmers, ranchers, and small businesses. Despite a full house, the service never missed a beat. Brady, the sommelier, was especially wonderful--attentive, knowledgeable, and full of great suggestions, all delivered with genuine kindness and a touch of humor. It was also such a treat to see Britt Rescigno walking the floor, taking time to connect with guests. It's no surprise she beat Bobby Flay--her talent is undeniable. An unforgettable meal--we can't wait to return. read more

Ate there when they first opened and enjoyed it. Went online to make a reservation and aborted mid way through. I am fine putting my credit card in to hold a reservation, but do you need my home address, do you need to provide my personal info to others, do you need me to check a box so Tuck can bill my credit card when they need to in the future? Give me a break. Called the Vintage, a person answered, got a reservation and had a wonderful dinner. read more

A truly remarkable restaurant. We choose Fiamma for my father's 80th birthday dinner and we could not have been more pleased with our experience. From the hostess to our wait staff to Chef Britt, the service was gracious, warm, and attentive. On what was a clearly busy night, everyone made my father feel like he was a VIP guest. Beyond the exemplary service, the food was simply outstanding. We cannot wait to find another reason to come back! read more

Review of FIAMMA - Ketchum's Hottest New Restaurant Tonight, Laura and I had dinner at FIAMMA, a brand-new restaurant in Ketchum, Idaho. We had to book an early reservation at 4:30 PM because it was the only time available--a testament to how in-demand this place already is. Now, Laura is notoriously selective about dining out. In fact, the last time we had dinner together at a restaurant was over two years ago (maybe even longer). But FIAMMA piqued our interest for one big reason--the chef. We had seen her on the Food Network, where she not only beat Bobby Flay but is also a finalist on another competition show and currently competing in Tournament of Champions (TOC). Her energy on TV is electric, and we were curious to see if that same passion translated to the dining experience. Spoiler alert: It absolutely did. From the first bite, everything was off-the-charts delicious. I started with the meatballs, made from a blend of three different meats, and they were packed with rich, savory flavors. Then came a salad so layered with flavors that I can't even begin to break them all down--it was simply perfect. My pasta dish was outstanding, and the grand finale? The best tiramisu I've ever had in my life. Beyond the food, the experience was top-notch. The chef-owner was actively walking the floor, greeting guests, and genuinely engaging with customers to ensure everything was flawless. And even though the restaurant had only been open for a few nights, they seemed to have already worked out any kinks--at least from our perspective. The verdict? We will definitely be back. Laura even agreed in advance, which speaks volumes. If you're in Ketchum, FIAMM is an absolute must-visit. In my opinion, this isn't just the best restaurant in town--it's the best in the entire state of Idaho. Here's a collection of videos and images from our experience. Don't just take my word for it--go check it out yourself! https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1KuDBMaB9a/? read more

3 of us dined for a birthday celebration. The meatballs were delicious and wonderful with the tender perfectly baked Focaccia and fennel butter. The artichoke was just ok. Not meaty at all. The generous portion of Bolognese pasta was different than expected, but very tasty and perfectly cooked and presented. My grenadine mocktail was yummy and refreshing. The Tiramisu was one of the best I've had. Perfection and a good 3 person share. The tea mocktail was a disappointment. They don't make a lemonade, which was a shame, since they are proud of their cocktails. They ask on the website if there were any celebrations, which I said yes to. But they didn't have any candles. The service was impeccable from start to finish. When we arrived for an early dinner the music was way too loud, but as the restaurant filled up we didn't notice it. We will return! read more

Recently opened in summer 2025, with really wonderful New American food. The meatballs are among the best I've ever tasted, light and flavorful with a baked ricotta and marinara sauce. Salads are delicious. There is an extensive wine list, and much of the pasta is made in-house. Sharing is encouraged, so it's easy to put together a tasting menu if you're so inclined. Service is extremely attentive. I hope they become a fixture of fine dining in Ketchum, because I want to come back next summer! read more

Consistently good and creative food. This is our go to place with out of town guest or if we wanna have a nice dinner. The ambience nice the friendly staff is a big plus.

Hands down our favorite meal in Sun Valley! We had an incredible experience here from start to finish. The service was outstanding, and the food was unbelievable, both in its stunning presentation and its amazing flavors. The staff is exceptionally friendly and welcoming; Chef Britt even took the time to come to our table to chat, which made the evening feel truly special. We recommend everything we tried: * Starters: Meatballs, Focaccia, Onion Rings, and Mushrooms. * Salad: A perfectly executed Caesar. * Pasta: Tagliatelle and a fantastic Pasta with Vodka Sauce. *The Pork Chops, Duck, and the Filet (served with delicious mashed potatoes and carrots). Everything was GREAT. If you are looking for a top-tier dining experience with a personal touch, this is it! read more

This restaurant was recommended by our hotel the Limelight. I read the reviews and booked a reservation for 4 as it is my brother's birthday. Wow... did not disappoint! From the focaccia bread (epic) and meatballs (excellent) to the main course everything was delicious. The radiatorre pasta was so tasty, the Tagliatelle pasta was amazing and the Waygu Braciole was beyond. I wish I had thought to take pictures to post but we were all so enjoying the food and the ambiance it never occurred to me. We ended a fantastic meal with the best tiramisu any of us have ever tasted. So light and creamy, you definitely have room for their Tiramisu. My only negatives would be that it got a little warm in the restaurant which is understandable since it's an open fire kitchen and it was busy so the time in getting the food was a little long. Service was excellent so we really didn't mind. All in all, highly recommend! read more

Sugar on the fries?? Taking time to write a review after my 4th visit since Fiamma's opening because I'm disappointed it keeps going downhill. The good: service remains excellent and the space is beautiful. Wine list is short but well curated and the sommelier is excellent. The not so good: The food has been worse each time. It's just not that interesting and the execution is inconsistent. And what's with the sugar on the fries? Meats and focaccia remain overpowered by smoke. I love what this restaurant is trying to do and there is room for it here but you need to do better, especially at this price point. It's starting to feel like a theme park-y, Vegas style fake version of fine dining for rubes. The clientele here, locals and visitors alike, are well-traveled and sophisticated. You need to do better on the food! read more

Thank you Britt for a great dinner. This is the 3rd time we have eaten here and the food and service has been outstanding!

Went here for my wife's bday while we were in town. The food was fine, for the price I would expect better service. They do not have a full bar, beer and wine only. Lots of locals who seemed to all know each other. It was just a meh for me. True story read more

The atmosphere and food here was amazing! A lot of people were telling me there way NO way I could house the bolognese and that it was super rich and huge portion. It totally makes sense where the people were coming from, but I housed it handily.

Italian food with very good service and nice, but noisy ambiance. Cannot say enough about the attention and the service which were excellent. I rated three stars since it was very expensive for Italian food. We each had a bowl of pasta (which was good, but not the best that I have ever had). I have to say that a pasta bowl for $49 is steep even for Ketchum (and this was almost the least expensive entree). Maybe this is good for an anniversary or other special occasion, but it will not be one of our regular restaurants. Probably a great place for visitors to the area!! read more

Fiamma is one of the newest restaurants in Sun Valley, so we decided to check it out. Our impressions were mixed at the best. We loved the interior and the friendly reception. However, problems started shortly afterwards. First of all, our waiter was not available most of the time so, for example, we had to pour our wine ourselves. A bit surprising. but survivable. And then came the food, and this was a big surprise. Pasta bolognese was way too salty. My osso buco had no flavor whatsoever. And the octopus appetizer was way too soft. The price, at $200 per person, would be fine for the great food, but definitely not for what we received. This is a price level of Michelin starred BCN Taste & Tradition or Le Jardiniere In Houston, while the food and service quality are infinitely lower. This is a new place and I hope that they will improve, but at this point in time, there is no justification for more than a three star rating. read more

Chef Britt, Chef Kinsey--ur food is SEXY AF!!! I'm bummed we missed u bc I'm a huge fan since Chopped many yrs back, but we had a party of four, had the burrata, Caesar salad, meatballs n focaccia for starters. All were delicious. I had the wagyu filet--cooked perfectly and seasoned so well. And yes I slathered my wagyu beef with Chianti butter. Melt in your mouth deliciousness! Hubs had the 16 oz NY strip n ate every bite, loved the Fiamma steak sauce. One of our friends had the wild boar rotolo and we all agreed it is the PERFECT pasta dish. Our other friend had the venison chops and they were so tender; the Calabrian sweet potatoes were the perfect blend of sweet and spice so the potatoes weren't cloyingly sweet. But we have just one request....market that rocky road gelato. OMG.....the caramel, the chocolate gelato, and we need to know what the crispy bits were. Fried waffle cone? I'm bummed we couldn't tell you face-to-face what an amazing dinner we enjoyed. Chef Britt--u did not disappoint, even in your absence. I have eaten at many a fine dining restaurant, several may have had renowned chefs. I can honestly say Fiamma exceeded my high expectations.

The food was absolutely amazing. My wife and I instantly became a fan of Britt's cooking through the show Tournament of Champions. The passion she put into her dishes on the show and her vibe made us want to try her food. We flew out from California on vacation to Idaho and went out of our way just to try her food and hopefully meet her. Fiamma was all that we thought it would be. The restaurant looked absolutely amazing. The vibe was down to earth and it felt like home. The food was over the top delicious. The most amazing part besides the food was being able to actually chat with Britt. Her personality which we saw on tv was what we got in person. She was so outgoing, down to earth and obviously loved the people that came into her establishment. Britt was nice enough to take a photo with my wife who is such a huge fan of hers and even surprised her with a signed menu. Thank you Britt for your warm hospitality and great food!!! Thanks for making my wife's dream of eating your food and meeting you come true. This place deserves three Michelin stars and definitely is a destination spot. Britt, we are rooting for you to WIN TOC!!! read more
