FiAMMA Ristorante

Pretty decent ambiance.
Food is good. A bit pricey but overall a good experience. Their pizzas are generally really good.
We had a team dinner here once and overall it was a great experience

Excellent classic Italian food with friendly and polite service. This is a definite restaurant I will return to on another trip to Canada.
The entire menu is a la carte making it for a difficult selection, but I finally decided on a pasta dish that was clearly a work of art and tasted the same with a great amount of sauce that even after finishing all the pasta, I needed to use a spoon and finish the sauce it was so good.
Being from the US the only item preventing 4 stars was some of the assumptions the wait staff took, like the Oil for the bread and the charging for each refill of soda (Pop as they call it here). The later of these I would have like to know before offering a refill to me. But that is a lesson learned as I travel…

Great ambient tranquil
Supreme lamb is
excellent pizza Service very good we’ll come back
thank you

The patio here is awesome — the high fence makes it feel secluded and you forget you’re even in Mississauga. But that’s it’s only redeeming factor. I found my pizza crust to be super bland and in need of a good pinch (or twenty) of salt. Also the toppings were really sparse! I ordered the Primavera pizza and expected it to be piled with grilled eggplant, zucchini, and mushrooms, but there were maybe 2 – 3 small pieces of each on the entire pizza. I might come back here again and try the pasta, but I won’t be getting the pizza again.

I first learned of the restaurant via Unilocal.I travel extensively and use Unilocal all the time. I’ve been to this restaurant on nearly every visit to Mississauga and has yet to disappoint.

Over all an ok experience. Calamari were hard & nit very tasty. The cold cut plate was ok. Penne alla vodka was good & i really enjoyed the Fiamma wood oven pizza, Italian sausages with goat cheese & Aragula. I enjoyed the food, maybe I’ll be back###
Note: customer service was not the best. I had to repeat what I was ordering twice. Manners were not impressive##

Went with the family for a special dinner. Our first time here.
The place looked nice and were promptly seated. Our server was very nice. My first negative is they have no childrens menu and observing the crowd there was more than enough to warrant one. They did put together a dish for her but charged:
Noodles: $ 9.00
Sauce: $ 2.00
Shrimp (5 of them): $ 15.00
Total: $ 26.00 for a child’s meal
This is a total rip off.
I had to bolognese pasta. Very expensive for not very much food (half the portion of other restaurants I’ve been too).
My wife had the tenderloin and again not very much food and was well done instead of the medium she ordered. The potatoes seemed like they were made with water and had no taste at all.
I would say the desserts were the best part of the meal but again, the portions were super small for a high price of $ 9.00 each (even for my daughters ice cream).
We gave this place a try but don’t think we will be back.

OK. To be honest, the food here is good. I would rate it a solid 4, so why the 3 then you ask? Well, the one waiter I had was TERRIBLE.
I started with some wine and Italian soda, because it’s a nice hot evening…
I decided to start with the cheese plate (I know but I can’t have it as dessert, I just CAN’T DO IT!!!) and a side salad. The salad was amazing but it was the cheese platter that really was the start of a bizarre experience…
First, the waiter comes by and brings the platter. He walks away. I ask him to come back to tell me what kind of cheeses were on my plate. He looked at me like I had asked him to lick my face. He looks at the plate and goes, «that one is spicy» yes, the flakes of red pigments kind of gave that away. «…and this one is yellow.» WHAT?! What the heck is yellow cheese? Is that like yellow snow? In which case, no thanks, I don’t want to eat pee?! I wanted to ask what the third one was but at this point my friend and I were in disbelief… So I quickly changed topics and asked for some sharing plates, he takes the bread plates from the seating next to us and puts them down… I go, «umm, bigger???» He rolls his eyes at me and leaves. He does come back with *slightly* bigger plates. So in the end, I asked another waiter and got a better response… but what shocked me was that as part of the cheese plate, I received a chuck of Parmesan. Did they just take it out of their cheese grater?! That was super weird.
Otherwise, had a great shrimp spaghetti but was surprised that the tomato sauce was oil based as opposed to tomato based. And the Tosca chicken pizza. That’s a pretty good pizza. They have the large wooden pizza stoves.
My suggestion to the restaurant owners, educate your staff… I hate when staff don’t know the food… oh and Tabasco! I should have carried some with me because hot oil and chilli flakes just don’t do it for me.

Great place. We had a group dinner for an intimate 24 people. We got to try quite a bit of the menu. The pizza was excellent (we tried several versions). Both our dinners tasted great and very attractive. They had a fun bar crowd also. Nice big place with nice atmosphere. Wait staff was very attentive.

This is one of the restaurants I frequent with my customers when i am in Mississauga. The place is huge, so its never a problem finding a table. It does get packed especially during lunch and dinner times… so making reservations is always a good idea. But last few times we have landed here at the last minute and the host always accommodates us and finds a table for us before the rush starts.
Menu is standard. Salads, Pizza, Pasta. They do run specials on a daily basis, always worth giving it a try. Food is good but nothing to rave about. Service is attentive. They have good selection of wine and will recommend based on your needs.

This is an above average italian restaurant. Unfortunately no one at our table had the pizza. we were in the mood for pasta! So anyway we had between us the charcuterie, calamari, and bruschetta pizza for appetizer — nothing to complain about here. The mains were amazing and raised the bar from the apps; fresh pasta and enough seasoning on everything. Had lovely Aranciata and Limonata to complement our meals.
Tip: they have gluten-​free pasta but only in penne :)

Went here with some colleagues and I thought it was OK. It wasn’t incredible but it wasn’t bad either.
i had the Insalata con Pecorino for a starter — lettuce, goat cheese, candied pumpkin seeds and cranberries. This was delicious! I’m a sucker for all of those ingredients individually so imagine them all put together — mmm!
For the main, I had the Fusilli con Pollo — chicken, sundried tomatoes, and spinach in a tomato cream sauce. Again, loved all the ingredients, and absolutely loved the pasta.
The biggest disappointment for me was the tiramisu. It was unflavoured mush. Usually at an Italian restaurant, tiramisu is my go-​to dessert since it’s usually what they do best, but this was definitely an exception. I couldn’t taste any coffee or really anything at all.
Otherwise, this place is reasonably priced and quite a nice ambiance if you’re looking to go somewhere decent with your colleagues. I probably wouldn’t go out of my way for it though.

Waiter was rude. They will charge you for each drink and not tell you that there are no refills. Food was cold and undercooked. 30 dollars later for a plate of cold pasta and a diet coke, I will not be returning.

So I have passed this place many times and I am at the Tim Horton’s next door regularly. Every time I walk outside all I can smell is the wood burning oven and the pizza. Everyone rants and raves that they have the best wood oven pizza. I am Italian and have tried my fair share of Wood oven pizza. After hearing all these comments I figured that seeing how hard it is to find a good real Italian pizza I MUST try it.
The server was very forgetful and somewhat sarcastic. Kind of a turn off to begin with. I was with a group and we ordered a few apps which were very good ill give the apps 4 stars. Lets get to the pizza. I was so excited only to be LET DOWN. The pizza has NO taste what so ever. I felt like I was eating plain dough. Lacking salt. Toppings had no taste. I can rant and rave all day but I think you get the point.
My girlfriend got the gnocchi which were very very good ill give them 5 stars. Should have got the gnocchi. Everyone that ordered something other then pizza was happy
I will go back but will NOT be getting the pizza. Weather or not I return after that will be determined after my second visit.
Be on the look out for my review on my second visit :)

We were staying at the Quality Hotel near the airport as our connecting flight to Ottawa was the next morning. We decided to go to Fiamma as one of our friends had eaten their before. It was a great atmosphere, dim lit, and had nice music. We were seated right away however our server seemed busy, distracted and might have presumed that we weren’t high class enough to tip him as much as the other customers he was serving. The food however made up for the lack of service — We ordered Caesar salad’s, bruschetta and I had the caprese and they were all fabulous. I ordered the pappadella pasta with prosciutto, crimini mushrooms and rapini in a roasted garlic olive oil sauce topped with shaved parmesan. It was to die for! If I’m ever in the area again, I would definitely go back.

The Unilocal reviews on this place (which aren’t many) are very mixed; people either hated or loved this place. Maybe they didn’t order something they liked or the service wasn’t great.
I was traveling in Toronto on business and didn’t want to eat «complimentary» hotel food (although I did swipe a cookie!). We heard about this place from a co-​worker and decided to dine here for the night (it was literally 2 minutes down the road from our hotel).
It’s located in a strip mall, right across the parking lot from a Tim Horton’s (which we hit right after dinner for a coffee). It has a dark setting right when you walk in, full service bar on the right with a circular wine rack in the middle of the dining room. We didn’t have to wait and were seated immediately.
I ordered the fried calamari and black shrimp with pasta (olive oil and black olives, the dish had a fancy name that I don’t remember). The shrimp was good, cooked just right and nestled into a pile of thin pasta. The dish was mixed with black olives, dried tomatoes and a small dab of olive oil. Mixed well and presented in a classic deep bowl, wide lip style.
Good food for a decent price ($ 18 for my dish, which I believe isn’t bad for Toronto).
If you’re in the Mississauga area looking for a decent place to eat, navigate your way to Fiamma.
*I gave 3 stars since this was my first time and I’m not familiar with the Toronto food scene. In my mind, the food was decent at a fair price; but it didn’t wow me compared to what I’ve had before.*

Summary: Great pizza but cruddy service
With great pizza, decent pasta and other entrees for $ 15 – 20, Fiamma is classier lunch option for those looking for a sit down environment with good ambiance. If you do come here, get the pizza, it’s superb.
But… Tony, Tony, Tony… sigh. What can I say, our waiter, Tony, completely destroyed our experience here. Tony, take a page from Toni, Tony, Tone; service is about «Whatever you want» and not pissing off your patrons (to be blunt). Tony is rude, overcharged on our bill and deceived us (or simply didn’t inform us) with how items would be charged on our bill.
I’d give Fiamma 4 stars if it weren’t for Tony, he has just got to go.

Inexpensive «fine» dining in the far away place of Etobicoke. Downtowners won’t find it easy to find. This is a good place to take your clients, treat them with decent meal without breaking your bank account.
According to my wine lover friends, wine list is decent (I don’t drink).
I had risotto and I’m not a fan. Uhmmm, I did not like it. I came here twice and will not come back to take my friends out. But will be with co workers where the setting is not so intimate and the conversation is «lighter».

Interior décor is dark in old 80’s mob flick but I guess it has its charms if you are out for a night with the wife.
The food is pretty good. I had a pizza and salad and was satisfied with both. The pizza is wood oven thin crust and a good version of it!
I also tried the gnocchi which was extremely heavy and not as good as the pizza.
Prices are fairly reasonable though perhaps slightly on the high side for its location.
Service is friendly and attentive. All in all not a bad spot close to the airport.

Rumour has it this place is owned by the Mafia. Either way it’s fantastic. The décor is dark and romantic and high class. The food is impeccable; I don’t think there is anything bad on the menu.
I had the Penne alla Vodka. What can I say, a creamy vodka sauce tossed with panchetta, awesome. The caesar salad I had to start with was really well done too. Not overly sauced, not too garlicky, and lots of large flakes of parmigano reggiano.
This is a great place to take a date or to impress a client for lunch.
