I have always loved Fiora's... the ambiance, the food and the wonderful wine selection. Last night was no exception except for 1 thing:
I have been eating "clean" for the past 3 months, so when I go out to eat, I examine what is on the menu and order according to what I can and want to put in my body.
We specifically asked our waiter if we could order the calamari appetizer saute'ed or grilled instead of fried as it was on the menu. (A lot of restaurants will do that for us). The waiter specifically told us that it is actually pan saute'ed and not fried and that it is the best calamari in the Fox Valley. So we ordered it. When we received it, it was absolutely fried with batter. We should have sent it back, but our waiter was so preoccupied with the table of 3 ladies next to us, that we couldn't get his attention - so my husband who isn't as particular as I am, started eating it.I had a couple of bites to see how it tasted. Although it had nice flavor, it was fried and it even tasted like it might have been frozen at one point.
The salmon that I ordered as an entree was delicious, it tasted fresh and had a lovely pomegranate sauce over the top and I would definitely order that again.
My husband had the short ribs and said that they were amazing.
