Fiore Cafe Reviews

Love their sandwiches and salads. Gets really busy during lunch 15-30 minutes to order but order comes quickly. Recommend to call before for order to go.

Fiore is a dream come true for me. The freshest, most delicious food ever! The owners and staff are wonderful.

It was wonderful to go there and look around in South Pasadena California

All I had was a glass of lemonade because there was nothing gluten free or oil-free on the menu that I could see, but there was a live jazz Trio playing the entire time and it was wonderful. I meant the owner whose name is Bill, and he was very cordial. I would recommend this small Cafe if you like pork belly sandwiches.

If I could call correctly this place is associated with the Little Theatre group there and it's a lot of fun. It's smaller but it doesn't feel small because they keep things moving and the food is really good. Created well I like just about everything here I'm a big fan of the fennel slaw that they serve

Tempeh bacon sandwich is my favorite vegetarian sandwich in LA!

Sandwich!!!
Rare Roast Beef Sandwich $11.50

Ice Tea $3

For those who don't like roast beef, you may like their rare version. Soft with delicious bread with crispy sides.

Free street parking.

Good vibe, very nice , lovely wait staff. The bread is incredible. My son and I enjoyed the violinist playing in their charming outdoor garden.

Great owner and great food. Service and the way they operate needs some attention, but that is because they are so busy! Awesome chicken pesto! This is a great lunch for me, best for togo. They do have outside seating that is great for a nice day out.

They bake their own bread and grow some of their veggies in gardens at the restaurant. Good simple sandwiches crafted with the very best ingredients by someone who cares and knows what they're doing. Everyone should try the rare roast beef once in their life. It's a masterpiece.

The food here is definitely one of my favorites. My wife loves the roasted chicken salad with maple bacon and I usually get the short rib or chicken sandwich. The flavor from either sandwich is on point and their bread is the perfect blend of soft and moist with a nice slightly crunchy crust. I will get the cookies from time to time and they never disappoint. You can tell the ingredients are fresh and made with care and it shows in how good this place is

Been there many times and have tried almost all their sandwiches, the most amazingly good food around. Bill and his crew come in every morning at 0:Dark Thirty to hand make the bread that is to die for! His homemade cookies and cupcakes are also to die for! Fiore Market Cafe is the best kept little secret gem in Pasadena area!

Really good vegan eatery, excellent sandwiches, burgers and salads. Can be kind of crowded during peak hours.

I agree "If there ever was such a thing as a hole in the wall this is it and it s delicious!!

Food was ready in ten minutes. We ordered the roast beef and short rib sandwiches and the Asian chicken salad. Everything was excellent.

Delicious, had the Tempeh Bacon Sandwich with an Huckleberry soda. I don't eat a ton of vegan (or vegetarian) specific food, but everytime I do it's only proven to me again and again that it can be just as delicious as food that isn't. The bread they used for the sandwich was great, the crust was what stood out the most. Soda (and I assume all drinks) is served to you after ordering rather than handed off at the time of ordering. Seating is all outdoors (you only order indoors), though I believe there is overflow seating at the theatre next door. All water is self served outside at the seating area. I want to come back again.

I just recently discovered this little gem of a restaurant in South Pasadena. Although, there is little seating inside, the outside patio has plenty of shade and is surrounded by a sweet garden filled with spring flowers in full bloom. I just discovered a couple of musicians play during lunch a couple of days during the week. The food is absolutely outstanding. My favorite is the short rib sandwich which is served on their homemade bread the bread is lathered with a a sauce that has a bit of a kick to it; making this sandwich my favorite.

Would you like to enjoy healthy, delicious food in a rustic garden setting? Here it is, across from the post office in South Pasadena. In addition to what others have written about the food, their home-made lemonade is perfect.

Good restaurant
I love Fiore Market Cafe

Quality is always good. Can be long lines and they can run out of things but I'm a fan. Would go here more if it was as convenient as going to heirloom for me.

Phenomenal. Absolutely phenomenal. A little cafe tucked away that you honestly would miss if you weren't looking for it, but, man, is it worth the visit. It legitimately has the feel of an Italian cafe. The bread is worth the visit alone. I ordered the chili (which I believe was a daily special, might not be available every time) and a "side" of bread. The "side" of bread was almost half of a loaf, and it is unbelievably delicious.
I highly recommend this place, and I will definitely bring people here myself

Great sandwiches and baked goods. (Love their bread) Very nice staff.

Such a quaint cafe with outdoor seating. Great salads and sandwiches!

I learned this place by chance, but draw me back all the time because of delicate food and warm service!

First time there, tea was awasome and orange homemade cake too.

As good as it gets in the Pasadena area. Great fresh food, cozy decor and outdoor patio and the staff/owner couldn't be nicer.

This place is a go to when I'm in the area. The chicken pesto sandwich with a chocolate chip cookie is a staple

The menu is limited and hasn't changed over the years although they do offer a daily special. That being said, they have made sure their limited offerings are of high quality and consistently delicious.

The outside dining area is particularly charming as you're seated along side their vegetable garden. However, EVERYONE flocks here on Saturdays and the place is overrun - which usually kills the charm factor.

Delicious bread, warm hospitality, and rustic Italian ambiance in the city.

Pleasant patio and surroundings. The short-rib sandwich was decent, but meat was drier and stringier than it should be.

Wow. That lavash wrap is what's up. Kalamata olives are a fav of mine and they were PERFECT here. Even the meat dishes smelled tantalizing, and as a vegetarian of 9 years, I never say that.

We stopped here for a late brunch and what a wonderful little cafe. The homemade bread for the short rib sandwich was so soft , airy and moist with just the right balance of crunchy crust. The freshly squeezed lemonade was perfect southern comfort. Definitely will come back again for another lazy brunch!!

I called when they opened and they said they could accommodate a large order but an hour later when we called to place our order, they said they could not accommodate us and to order elsewhere. This cost them about $350 in a sale.

Live music at lunch on Fridays, the chicken sandwich and chocolate chip walnut cookies are amaaaazing

Best sandwich place in town, amazing bread, lovely location with outdoor seating.

They make their own bread which is amazing for sandwiches. Highly recommended.

This is a charming place to eat. When my parents come and visit me, we make it a point to break bread at Fiore! The food is delicious, healthy and fresh. The owner is so nice, he makes my parents feel right at home. I was so inspired by the food we ate today, I am going to buy the cookbook!

The place serves big dishes and for convenient pricing. very nice owner. 5 stars.

Delicious shortrib sandwich, fresh salad, quaint ambiance, mildly chilly with outdoor heaters turned off

The food is delicious! Great atmosphere! Just disappointed that the cashier didn't have the patience to handle my card...this chip isn't working but the swipe portion does after 3 tries. But other than that... Yummy food!

There's never been a bad bite that has passed my lips in this wonderful location for food. If you haven't tried it yet, you owe it to yourself to do so.

The best sandwich shop in SG Valley. Not a lot of selections but they do each well. Their special egg salad sandwich is the best I have ever had.

I frequent this excellent restaurant from time to time since I love the ambiance that is outline this place. The staff is exceptionally friendly and skilfull. The service is deeply efficient. Not to mention, the food they cook is good. I visited many times and I was always satisfied. The pay is honest. I highly suggest this restaurant to my friends and family.

Like being in Europe for lunch! Homemade bread is killer! Outdoor dining with music. Everything on the menu is perfection!

This place is definitely one of the coolest place to eat in the region. Always when I visit this place I am truly satisfied. They keep their high standard service and the topmost level of dishes they give. You will be always satisfied with this place. Very recommended.

Yum! Fresh food, friendly service, eclectic cool vibe and good tunes. What more could you ask for?

Very fresh tasting ingredients, prompt service calming atmosphere to sit and have a great lunch. Full size sandwiches are a generous portion

It's a must to dine at Fiore to experience it yourself. I love the small, independent, mom & pop's kind of a cafe. There's nothing like good home cooking! The Chef is wonderful, and a delight to engage in conversation. The staff is very personable and genuine. Who needs to go to some small coastal town to have great food and extraordinary service when it is here in South Pasadena. My favorite "go-to" cafe, Fiore!

This little hidden gem never fails to please. Everything I've tried has been absolutely wonderful.

We ordered the Asian chicken salad, ice tea, and it came with their home baked bread and we ate in their patio. Delicious! So, I ordered to go too.

Delicious sandwiches. Few options so you don't have to think too hard.

Pasadena is lucky to have a little place like this!! although when we called they said it was a 20 minute wait we took our chances and so glad we did! first time customer and will definitely come back food was fresh, right price and right portions we order the especial chicken sandwich, the chicken sandwich and side of the lentil salad with caramelized pecans, everything came up at fairly good speed, an older gentleman (could be owner) checked on us twice and made sure we were fine I would strongly recommend this place be back for sure..

I love their chicken sandwich is the best, fresh bread, I highly recommend it

Wonderful piece that sounds a bit of italian taste. Love it!

Arguable the best sandwich I've ever had. The bread... what is in the bread?? It literally melts in the mouth and is so soft, warm and moist. The chicken is also warm in the chicken pesto sandwich, and it is great with the mayo and pesto sauce. Even the salad is absolutely delicious here.

I have never EVER had a better sandwich. EVER. Hands down the BEST sandwich on gods green earth.

Wow- this place in SoPas almost takes you back to Paris, the food is fresh, drinks are delicious. Fridays they have live music.

The atmosphere is so cute and fresh. Ordering is easy and the food comes out fast. The sandwich bread is like a couple of sweet little homemade clouds with a crispy crust. I had today's special, ham with gouda, and it was so delicious I considered ordering a second sandwich to go. The salad that comes with the sandwich is simple with a super yummy dressing. I'll definitely be back.

Their food is delicious. Outdoor dining is now available. Please support them in these trying times.

#1 Place for lunch if you're in the area; wonderful food, tranquil atmosphere, and it's near the center of town. I would definitely recommend the roasted chicken sandwich.

One of my absolute favorites! All of their seating is outdoors under the trees, they have dog treats, and lovely metal and wooden tables! Their food is beyond delicious! They mainly focus on sandwiches, but have several salad and sweet options available. Their vegan options are fantastic as well! Absolutely recommend!

A great place for a sandwich. It's cozy, the seating is entirely outdoors. They close up if they run out of their fresh-baked breads. Probably the best lunch spot in South Pas.

Their sandwich are very fresh and their homemade bread was crunchy on the outside and soft inside. Very delicious!

They have the best fresh bread chicken sandwich and the shortbread or Terry short ribs sandwich so delicious like a Hidden Gem

Very friendly host. Delicious homemade bread in all of their sandwiches. Tried the rib sandwich and the chicken sandwich.

Amazing sandwiches and a relaxing atmosphere. Go have lunch with a friend while they play live music.

God damn I love the fresh made bread and sandwiches here.

Customer service needs improvement . Food pretty good, seating arrangement cute.

Great little cozy market cafe in South Pasadena. You feel at peace eating here. I had the chicken sandwich which was top notch which I highly recommend.

They even have a vegetable garden of to the side. Not sure if this is where they source dinner if their vegetables in their dishes.

If you come here, be prepared to wait and expect to get your stuff to go. Way too popular to enjoy.

Love this outside cafe. Healthy food choices. Very welcoming. Great choice!

The salad and service was fabulous!!!!! Also the ambiance! Love this place!

Fresh ingredients used to make delicious sandwiches and a great vibe with the jazz music. I love this place. Definitely try the roasted chicken sandwich with the pesto spread if you're in the area. Their lemonade isn't too shabby either.
