"A Gem of Italian Ambiance: Cafe Fiore Review We recently celebrated our 18th wedding anniversary at Cafe Fiore, and it was an unforgettable experience. Nestled in the heart of Ventura, this charming restaurant exudes authentic Italian ambiance, making every visit feel like a journey to Italy itself. From the moment we stepped inside, we were greeted by warm, inviting decor and a welcoming atmosphere. The menu offered a delightful array of dishes, each bursting with flavor and crafted with care. Whether it was pasta, seafood, or classic Italian favorites, every bite was a culinary delight. One standout was the espresso martini topped with homemade whipped cream—an absolute must-try for anyone visiting Cafe Fiore. It perfectly balanced the rich flavors of espresso with a touch of sweetness, leaving us craving for more. What truly sets Cafe Fiore apart is its versatility. It has become our go-to spot for everything from casual happy hours with friends to intimate family gatherings and special celebrations like birthdays and anniversaries. The attentive staff and impeccable service only add to the overall exceptional dining experience. In summary, Cafe Fiore has captured our hearts with its delightful ambiance, delicious cuisine, and welcoming atmosphere. It’s more than just a restaurant—it’s a destination where memories are made and cherished. We look forward to many more visits in the years to come. Grazie mille, Cafe Fiore, for making our anniversary celebration truly unforgettable."

"The asiago bread they bring the table is delicious and comes with an olive tomato tapenade for dipping. I got the ravioli and my friend got the fettuccine with filetmignon. We got the dessert sampler and the creme brulee, everything was yummy. Pretty atmosphere in the side patio and we were allowed to bring the doggie."

"Delicious food and great vibes. I really like their pasta. It is very balanced. The cioppino is not very “San Francisco”, but I like it. (You guys know cioppino is not from Italy right?) The reception attitude was acceptable. But our waitress Gloria was super sweet and friendly."

"The appetizers were fantastic. The cocktails excellent, and the main dishes beyond tasty! The bread starter with some kind of outstanding tapenad is great! Overall Cafe Fiore is highly recommended! Thank you."

"Damn this food was good. I really enjoyed dinner. The bread and tapenade was so good. We got a prosciutto pizza to start and was so good. I got the pasta bolognese and it was amazing. Can’t wait to come back and do it again. The Negroni was tasty. We called off dinner with crème brûlée and it was delicious. Wow. Loved this meal."
