    Margherita pizza.
    Scott W.

    We enjoyed a wonderful lunch at Fiorella after browsing the Rochester Public Market. The Margherita Pizza was delicious with a nice crust and sweet sauce. The real highlight was the wood-roasted eggplant on baguette with tomato, arugula, and bean purée. The sandwich was flavorful. The bread had a super crunchy exterior with amazing roasted veggies. The bean purée was out of sight. In all, a lovely relaxing lunch. It hit all the marks. We will return.

    Eggplant gnocchi and pizza

    Generally busy so service is a little slow, loved the ambiance of the place though! The food was good, we got the eggplant gnocchi and pizza. Gnocchi was really fresh, soft but still had a nice bounce, and the sauce was amazing. The pizza had a nice thin crust and overall had a nice Smokey-ness from the ham

    Eggplant sandwich- good but needs a punch of flavor (maybe ask for a side of marinara sauce?)
    Jessica W.

    Food: eggplant sandwich, spaghetti w/meatballs, pizza with mushrooms no cheese. The eggplant sandwich was goid, but lacked flavor. I feel like what would take it to the flavor next level would be a booster - like caramelized onions and a tomato jam of some sort. Service: go up to the counter and they bring it to you. The girl at the counter wasn't very helpful and appeared bored. Location: we came here because we needed a place to get out of the cold and seat down and eat lunch after the Public Market, which this is located in the same lot.

    Cacio e Pepe?????? Not really
    Phil G.

    I'm hoping the spaghetti Cacio e Pepe I was served at lunch was just a "one-off" error by Fiorella. Bland, with no pepper taste, the liquidy sauce added nothing. Although the pasta was prepared well, Al dente, no flavor came through. It was disappointing at best. Fiorella is a counter-service restaurant. You walk up to the front, order your meal, and someone will plop your plate in front of you when it's done. Utensils are provided cafeteria style. The place was crowded, and thus, people must enjoy this kind of dining. If the food is incredible, I'll eat it off the floor, doggy style. However, for pasta this bland, I would need a cadre of servers fawning all over me to put a smile on my face. Maybe Fiorella is better at dinner.

    Great place!! Pizza is so good! We will remember to go visit again sooner than later. We don't get to the public market area that often!

    Wowza! What an incredible meal with fabulous service! We started with the cocktail special which was similar to an Aperol spritz - glass size was small for a spritz but flavor was nice We shared green salads - huge portion next time will add goat or Roquefort cheese Three pizza and caciao e pepe were the main course YOU MUST GO TRY THEOR PIZZA! Best crust in town and amazing toppings! Be sure to make a reservation

    Spaghetti Cacio e Pepe Chicken Cutlets

    I will be completely frank I think everyone in the metro Rochester Area has been here at least once and you should too.. seriously. Located in the Rochester Public Market by the Cheese Store and next to Velvet Belly. I've been here before but I did not write a review let's remedy that now. (If someone tells you they don't think they would like pasta with cheese and cracked black pepper in their lives needs to try it) Here's the deal call them to make a reservation for dinner or if you have any questions about lunch and etc. I know you don't wanna call but it is what it is. They don't fo online reservations. We came here on a Saturday they open at 11:30-2pm, close than open at around 5pm and close at 11pm I believe (check the info) Basically you walk in and go up to the long bar and order the menu is attached to the counter. You order, get yourself a table or sit at the bar, they give you a number and bring you the food. We picked up our plates and utensils ourselves. They do serve wine and etc and we called in about bringing in a bottle it's fine but the corkage fee is $20 I find this annoying but whatever. We ordered some things to share... We got the cacio e pepe..this is a simple dish made well, basically pasta (spaghetti) with pasta water, cheese and cracked black pepper. Yes kids it a carb bomb but well worth it.. my only slight gripe is I wished it had a little more pepper. Still it was scrumptious and luscious and I could eat more! Than we got the Chicken Cutlet that came with a mixed green salad, lemon to squeeze all over it and some shredded Parmesan Reggiano. Now this was tasty and one person could finish it but it pretty large. It was battered and fried just right, the chicken was succulent but I wished it had a little more seasoning. Both these dishes were shared by myself and my friend and we ate it all.. if I was alone and ordered it most of it would have come mine with me. After our lunch we had a glass of Prosecco a nice way to end lunch and cut thru all the carbs, fat and etc. We did not get any thing sweet and maybe I missed it on the counters menu. The inside has clean lines, wood floors and tables. At night the dim light would be a slight sexy touch but during the lunch hours you need a tad bit more light, maybe open the blinds a bit more. Oh well this is minor. Service was easy at the counter and staff bringing food and delivering drinks were helpful and pleasant. Would I come back again for lunch and dinner.. you damn tooting! Parking is at the public market and it's not hard to get during the evening, daytime you may have to look due to the market that is open at the same time on a Saturday. Give them a whirl, I'll be back.

    Chicken Cutlet-can't be seen, but it has 2 pieces of chicken that size. DELICIOUS!

    My friends and I can't stop talking about our dinner at Fiorella. It was a month ago! It was so good that we're still talking about it. I went there when it first opened and I finally came back with some first timers. All of us agreed that it is one of our favorite Italian restaurants around, if not our favorite. I have to start by saying that the Chicken Cutlets are the best I have ever had in my life, no joke. It was the perfect thickness, perfect crunch and seasoning, and it had the best lemon vinaigrette salad with it. The portion is very generous and you won't go hungry. My friend and I shared that along with Cacio E Pepe. This was chef's kiss. Again, just perfect in every way possible. Fiorella has a sweet Public Market feel with a nice bar. Great use of space as to not be too crammed. Our service was top-notch. We had everything when we needed it. Our server kept the pace of the dinner going perfectly, as you only have 90 minutes for your seating. This was made abundantly clear when I made the reservation and when they called to confirm. This worked for us because we needed to get to a show. However, if you're looking for a place to go and sit to have coffee and talk or after dinner cocktails, you may want to consider going somewhere else for that or choose a different place to eat. When it's busy, they're very strict about the 90 minutes. In closing, my last word of advice is, GET THE TIRAMISU!!!! Don't even think about sharing, get your own! It's cold and topped with mini chocolate chips that compliment it so well.

    Great vibes! Great people. Will come back again. The chicken Milanese is amazing there. I got a margarita pizza as well which was good but not great. I don't love their red sauce. It's just too saucy. But that's a personal preference. This is BOMB Italian in Rochester

    Chicken cutlet meal. My fave

    I've heard so much about Capone's sandwiches on social media. I had to stop in and try one…read more The restaurant is small but tables are available for dining in. They also have drink coolers available with a wide variety to choose from. The woman who took our order was very nice. The ordering process was quick and simple. Sandwiches were ready within 10 minutes. Absolutely loved my sub! I ordered a large vodka parmesan sub with house made pesto drizzle. I enjoyed the crusty bread and sauce flavors. My husband ordered a cold sub and was happy with how stacked it was. He also said the house made Italian dressing was delicious. The sandwich was perfect and I can see Capone's being my new sub go to. The sub was around 19 with tax which is a little pricey to me, but the quality was excellent. I was interested in pizza but didn't like seeing the pizza slices just sitting out in the open. They are not covered or in any type of casing. I don't like the idea of slices just sitting out like that exposed to the atmosphere. Will have to order a freshly made pie to try.

    Capone's Italian Eatery seriously impressed us from start to finish. We ordered the Canzone, and it…read morewas absolutely perfect--stuffed with a great variety of meats and fresh cheese, with just the right amount of dough so it wasn't overwhelming or heavy. You can really tell the ingredients are high quality and made with care. We also tried several subs, including the buffalo chicken, meatball sub, and the vodka chicken parm sub, and every single one was fantastic. The flavors were bold, the sauces were spot on, and the portions were very generous. Nothing tasted rushed or thrown together--everything was hot, fresh, and full of flavor. The dining area is a bit small, but it has a cozy feel, and honestly, the food is the real star here. If you're looking for amazing Italian comfort food done right, Capone's is definitely worth a visit. We'll absolutely be coming back again.
