    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!

    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!

    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!

    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.

    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!!!!

    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

    Funghi pasta with chicken
    Tammy T.

    Overall, the food here curbs your appetite if you're craving Italian food. The interior is bright and modern, but it's ironic how the food is served on plastic plates for a "nicer" restaurant. After getting seated, the hostess forgot to provide the menus, so we had to grab the menu ourselves. The menu offers standard dishes from pastas to ravioli. The crust from our margherita pizza was a bit dry but overall still decent tasting. The pasta was slightly overcooked but the mushrooms were tasty. If you're looking for a dining experience with a beautiful interior, this is a decent place to visit. Food quality and service could improve though.

    Il Fiora Cioppino
    Janette H.

    This place has always been on my list of places I want to try. My boyfriend and I decided to celebrate Valentine's Day early last weekend and he picked this place to take me and I couldn't have been more satisfied. Upon arrival, we were adding our names to the waitlist on their tablet and right as we finished entering in our info, a staff approached us and was able to seat us right away. It was definitely busy for a Saturday night so they asked if we were okay sitting outside on their patio. I didn't mind and thank goodness they had their heaters out because I always get cold lol. Once we were seated it didn't take too long for a server to approach us. They brought us water and let us know bread would be out soon. Who doesn't love complimentary bread?! Of course we had to order their fried calamari as our starter. All their pastas sounded delicious but we went with their Shrimp rose pasta and their il flora cioppino. Fried calamari: I've been to places where their fried calamari is mostly batter. The fried calamari was good and you can definitely taste the squid and it had the perfect crunch. I wish it was a bigger portion. Il Fiora Cioppino: Spaghetti, Mussels, Shrimp, Clams, Scallops, Calamari in a Spicy Tomato Sauce. THIS WAS SOOOOOO GOOD. First time having a pasta dish like this. The sauce was delicious. I was very tempted to ask if I could take the rest of the sauce home so I could make more pasta with it haha. Shrimp rose pasta: Also delicious and creamy. I feel like you can't go wrong with ordering this dish. Staff: sad I don't get our servers name but he was nice and friendly and checked up on us multiple times to make sure we were doing okay. Whoever was our server around 7:30-8:30pm, thank you!! It's definitely a nice, cute place to go on a little date on. Will definitely be coming back for their pastas!

    Been seeing this place for a while and finally tried it. We got the funghi pizza, shrimp rose pasta, and truffle gnocchi. Both pastas were delicious, the sauces were rich, creamy, buttery, and full of flavor. If you like mushrooms, I definitely recommend the truffle gnocchi. The pizza was also good, a solid, classic choice. Our waiter was amazing, we ordered a dessert slightly after last call for a birthday and he hustled to make it happen, and then joined our little gossip session for a bit. Definitely a fun night with great food. I would love to come again on a nice day to sit on the porch and enjoy!

    Insalata di funghi
    Maya N.

    We were seated pretty quickly and ordered right away since they gave our table a tablet to order with. The space was clean and bright. The wait staff were all friendly and nice, with frequent service. Their food is best described as Italian food with Korean influence. The insalata di funghi was good, but we had a random shrimp tail in our dish. We are not allergic, thank goodness. The staff made sure we were okay and apologized, offering us on the house. They asked if we would like a new salad but we were fine eating the same dish. The truffle gnocchi is a new dish and it was delicious. Light crisp outside and gooey gnocchi insides. A bit pricey but probably the best gnocchi I've had. Overall a happy lunch experience. I'd go back!

    Free bread
    Vera L.

    Located on the top floor of The Source plaza, with free parking in the structure. Pretty ambience and great attentive service. It's a great clean Italian /Korean fusion spot with yummy pasta and pizza. First thing they give is the compliment fresh pita(?) bread for the table, with vinegar and oil. It's good! It's also similar or same as the crusts of their pizzas. Shrimp Rose pasta and Fungi mushroom truffle mozarella pizza were both delicious- order them!

    Stanley S.

    I came here about 2 weeks ago during the storm while it was pouring out. We were beginning to get hungry but the food ended up getting served fairly quickly. We ordered a salad, the rose pasta, funghi pizza, risotto, and some ravioli. While I was eating it, I thought it was decent. I enjoyed the vibe while sitting by the window watching the rain fall. Mushroom pizza ended up being good, but the rest of the stuff was alright. It's one of those places I probably won't try again. On the plus side, the staff was really nice and the food comes out quick!

    If you could leave your phone number, our host staff will contact you tomorrow. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.

    Do they accept reservations anywhere or do we have to call?

    You have to call, and they don't do same day reservations, but do for future dates.

    Is there options for an event packages? A website to find out more details?

    Is dog allowed?

    Service dog allowed indoor, but they have front patio allowed dog.

    I have called multiple times and left messages but no one picks up or get back to me. Are they even open? I need to make reservations in advance.

    No they don't take reservations

    Is there a phone number listed? I am trying to see if I can make a reservation?

Each table has a chili oil that I strongly recommend you add, especially to the uni pasta as I found it heavily under-seasoned. All the noodles were al dente, and the dishes were served with bread and a small house salad. Our waiter did the best he could, but for some reason, the weekday we chose was a pretty busy day with a crowd outside the door. My biggest qualm with my experience was the portion size and the seasoning. Our party was still a bit hungry (or, at least I was) after the meal, and we found each dish to be a bit flat,, though the chili oil helped with that. Looking forward to my next visit, and will definitely order something different.

Well, fast forward to this year...and HE was the one who suggested we finally give it a try! We are SO glad we listened to him! The pizza here reminds me of the kind of pizza I would eat in Italy.

I don't blame anyone but this visit, I think we made the wrong choice. This was my son's first visit and so we decided to order two different items and split it to give him the opportunity to try at least two menu items in one visit. We ordered the Sunday Night Lasagna and the Breakfast Rosa Pizza. The food tasted delicious, but my complaint was the pizza was very spicy. I can handle spice, but this had a kick that the spiciness would hit you in the back of your throat and make you cough uncontrollably because of the spice. It was annoying, but I managed to get through it and finish my share. The other issue about the pizza is it was not cut well. I think they rushed on trying to get it served, but I could not even pull it apart. The table knife couldn't even cut through the crust. That's just poor quality control on the person prepping the item for playing and getting it sent out to the table. As for the lasagna, the meat sauce was great, but our complaint was the portion size. It was thin and small. Some lasagna's I've hade in the past would be a four to five layer thickness. This was just two layers. The bottom pasta, a little bit of meat sauce and the top layer of pasta, with a little sauce on the top and some dollops of cheese. I think my next chance I get to go back again, I should try something different and hope it's a better food experience.

I enjoyed the ceasar salad, although it did seem like a small portion. My husband and I shared the cacio e Pepe arancini. It was delicious. Crunchy and crispy on the outside, and nice soft texture on the inside. It pairs well with the pesto sauce provided. Although, it was a little bit too salty for our liking. The hot honey & prosciutto pizza was good. It was different than what we normally eat, so it was worth a try. It had a kick to it because if the hot honey. But our favorite of the meal was the house bolognese pasta! The texture and good of the pasta was on point! The sauce.... Exceptional! I really enjoyed the tiramisu as it is my favorite. The chocolate gelato was night and light and had bits of (I want to say) cacao nibs. Overall delicious meal! We received great service! Definitely coming back here to try their other food items!
