Fiorella’s

Ask anyone who lives or works in the neighborhood of Newtonville where to find delicious Italian cooking, and they’ll point you to Fiorella’s. Since opening in 2000, we’ve earned a local reputation as the go-to choice for homemade, Italian-inspired cuisine. Prepared with fresh, locally sourced ingredients, and served with hospitality from the heart.

In the Fall of 2017, we opened our second full-service restaurant in Concord Center, and expanded our name to Fiorella’s Cucina – Italian for “kitchen,” as in our open kitchen, where our chef turns out creative twists on classic dishes. In both locations, the warmth of our wood-burning brick oven adds a rustic touch to our casually elegant dining room.

Our innovative menu features a range of traditional and contemporary entrees as well as delicious Neapolitan-style pizza and creative daily specials. Add to that a fully stocked bar, creative cocktails, and an approachable wine list, and you’ve got all ingredients for a memorable dining experience.

Fiorella’s Cucina is open for lunch Monday through Saturday, and dinner seven nights a week. We look forward to serving you!

Went here Saturday for dinner before a show in nearby Lexington. Cozy rustic Italian restaurant in an old colonial building in Concord center . Small lively bar near the entrance. Terrific service from arriving to departure. We had soup and salad to start and bolognese and lemon chicken penne for our entrees. All homemade and delicious. Our server thanked us for our tip and the owner thanked us for coming in on our way out. Food and service were very good and prices were reasonable for a high value experience. Lastly plenty of parking! Can’t wait to return!

My family and I celebrated an event here and I cannot say enough about what an awesome experience it was! The food? Delectable! There were 12 of us and we all shared different dishes and literally everything was amazing! The service? Impeccable! Our server was Morgan and she never missed a beat! After our food arrived (quickly for a table of 12 but not so quickly that we felt rushed in any way!) the manger came over to ask how everything was and we all raved! He was delightful to talk to and genuinely seemed invested in our experience! I would gladly spend my money at this place any day - a lot of places can be very hit and miss these days, not this place! Thank you for a wonderful evening and memories made!!

Customer service was superb. I had no reservations and I was with 6 other people on a busy Saturday night. We got seated close to our preferred time. I did go in 40 minutes earlier to get on the waiting list since you cannot do it over the phone. Regardless, we were at a nice table and everyone enjoyed their meal. We even ordered a couple of tiramisu and coffee afterwards. Our waitress was really friendly as well. This is our second time visiting the restaurant and so far we’ve always had a good experience!
Karyn Martin   September 24, 2023
Amazing! Literally the entire experience was delicious & delightful. Our waitress Charlotte was attentive, the Sinatra style sounds set the tone for a fabulous Italian fare and the food was phenomenal. Why fight traffic to drive to the North End when Fiorella’s is near by? The meatball appetizers was simple and scrumptious. The white wine sauce was perfectly balanced and the lemon chicken was bursting with flavor. Can’t wait to go back!
Daniel Hollis   September 16, 2023
We all enjoyed our food here. Baked gnocchi in red sauce with slices of fresh mozzarella was pretty good. Faro salad was very tasty. Flatbread w prosciutto and mushrooms was very good. The buffalo brussel spouts were great, we finished the plate before I remembered to take a picture. The bread they serve is a very thin cheesy bread with marinara on the side. Will definitely go back when in the area.

When we arrived, the females at the front desk were not at all professional. Even though we didn't make a reservation, there's no need to treat us poorly. The women working the front desk put on phony smiles as we departed. But the woman who served us was outstanding. Extremely helpful and cordial. The Fit Trail totally rocks. Friendly to both novice and advanced users. My children are begging to return.
Allison H.   July 5, 2023
Best Italian food I've had since I was in Italy. The marinara is delicious and the lemon chicken with olives and artichoke was incredible. Excellent service.

Had a great meal here before a show at the theater across the street. Food was great, and service was fast. Cocktails were subpar, lots of juice. The martini I got however was a much better deal. For food, the Caesar salad was light on dressing. The veal saltimbocca was delicious, as was the chicken gnocchi fra diablo. Good meal overall!

Great salads and breadsticks at lunch. We ordered an arugula salad, Caesar salad with shrimp, and wedding soup. Everything was fresh and arrived quickly.

Allan Hunter   July 16, 2022
Fiorella’s Cucina is an excellent and authentic Italian restaurant. The food is always flavorful and delicious. The atmosphere is is always pleasant albeit a bit noisy at times, but not too overbearing and it can take 5-10 minutes before anyone comes to your table to get your initial drink order like it did last night. And even then it took two tries before the server got the order correct. But, our meals were delicious. A caveat I’d like to mention is the temperature of the main dishes when they arrive at your table, as they can be extremely hot. Last night my partner ordered the lasagna and I had a special with ground sausage, broccolini and Orecchiette pasta. Mine was very hot and had to let it cool, but my partner took a bite of his and burned his tongue and throat to where he was unable to complete his meal. Be sure to test the temperature to prevent this. He’s still not feeling well today and hope he’ll be better by tomorrow or Monday.

First time trying Fiorella's and our family really enjoyed it! The Arancini is the size of a softball and very well put together. The pasta dishes, pizzas were all very good, as was the almond crusted salmon. Hearty portions here so you don't leave hungry, but you absolutely have to save room for the peanut butter pie for dessert. It's absolutely phenomenal!

Heather Blanchard   February 21, 2022
Everything from the service to the food was amazing! My boys said they knew it was a "fancy restaurant because you get water without even having to order it!" Our appetizer, salad and meals were all delicious. The buffalo brussels sprouts were definitely a stand out! The staff were attentive, polite and friendly. They worked together like a well-oiled machine. I would recommend making a reservation because the dining area really filled up while we were there but we were seated very quickly without having one, so perhaps it's more about what time you arrive.
Missy Miller   February 21, 2022

Peyton Pascual   December 19, 2021
First time having dinner here. Food was excellent. We enjoyed the Baked Mozzarella Gnocchi and the Penne with Vodka sauce. The caprese salad was very fresh and our glasses were filled frequently. The waitstaff was impressive even though it was very busy on a Thursday night. Attached is a picture of the peanut butter pie dessert. We will be coming back here again in January for sure. When a restaurant stands out due to both quality food and waitstaff you have to do a review. And this one clearly does!!
Ryan Alverdes   November 4, 2021
We stopped here after a long morning of traveling across the country to have lunch (to us)/dinner (local time). This was an excellent start to our trip, and ended up staying as number one, though admittedly we had a lot of good food and I didn't really know how to rank them all. We seem to have a hard time finding decent Italian food back home, and I wish we had more places like this around home. The food was good, our server was friendly, and it was just a nice experience.
Marsha Holoubek   November 3, 2021
Our first dinner at Fiorellas located in concord . From the moment we walked in , the atmosphere was very inviting and tastefully decorated and spotless. We were greeted by a hostess and the manager who was extremely kind and friendly, Our waitress Sheridan was very personable and knowledgeable as well as pretty. Our meals were delicious and we can’t wait to dine there in the very near future / like maybe tomorrow. Seriously I would highly recommend Fiorella’s located in Concord, ma. The very BEST
Jess McConnell   October 14, 2021
Really enjoyed our lunch here. The spicy marinara is amazing and everything we ate was well prepared and piping hot. A great find!
Mark Thompson   October 11, 2021
Cozy Italian venue located off the main thoroughfare in Concord. Great for couples, friends, and occasions. The meatballs are a must: moist, flavorful, and bathed in a bright marinara. The carbonara and veal parmesan are also highly recommended. The only thing keeping their sauces from perfection is the chef's deep-seated love affair with garlic. Until I dined here, I never thought there was such a thing as too much garlic! The service is excellent. Booths, tables, and a terrific bar make for a very comfortable experience.

Marshall Horwitz   June 29, 2021
Wow!! This restaurant is fantastic!! First, our server Rachel, was absolutely delightful. Whatever she chooses in life to do, she will be a great success. She has the right attitude. Our food was equally wonderful. We had the calamari with a great marinara sauce. The Bolognese was just perfect. The seasoning was just right. The pasta was perfectly cooked. We also had the carne trio pizza. Another home run. High quality dough, sauce and cheese. There is a reason why this place is busy on a Tuesday night. EXCELLENT!!
David Stephens   June 26, 2021
Everything about our visit was outstanding! Atmosphere, employees, food and wine! Our waitress, Rachael, was awesome. Service was fabulous and the manager also checked with us two different times to see if we were enjoying ourselves or if we needed anything. While speaking with the manager we learned that she actually lived in Hudson for a few years. We will be back for sure. Highly recommend giving this place a try. You won't be disappointed. Thanks Rachael and everyone else for your outstanding service and friendliness.

My family and I went here for my Mom's Birthday dinner this week and everything was wonderful.

This is a great local restaurant with good italian food. There are a few different locations but this one is my favorite. It is on the smaller side with a very intimate setting, plenty in dine-in seating, and a bar. They are talking great precautions for Covid with bar dividers. The staff is friendly and attentive.

Absolutely fantastic Italian restaurant very close to historical center of Concord. I'm not usually a fan of marinara, but theirs is tasty. And the Penne alla Vodka was surprisingly good. Highly recommended. The staff are very friendly and attentive, makes it feel like you're a regular, even if its your first time. Looking forward to coming back.

John Moran   October 21, 2020
Did the curbside pickup. The website was really easy to navigate, every option was available to select or deselect. Choices were very detailed, yet flowed very nicely. Food was ready when promised. Staff were incredibly helpful, very friendly, fast and efficient. The food was absolutely delicious. Got the roasted potatoes as a side, each one was perfectly cooked, seasoned, the right doneness while being the perfect softness on the inside. Lasagna was delicious, perfect blend of flavors, enough sauce without drowning in it. The garlic bread was toasted to perfection, right amount of crispness with the softness of fresh baked. The walnut salad was supreme, the dressing old world delicious thickness, and flavor. The best part is the pricing is very good for the quality received. Thirty dollars for 2 people for a full dinner including tip. Do not hesitate to stop in or take out. I dont usually write long reviews, infact this is my longest one to date. I am looking forward to my next order from here.

I stopped in at Fiorella's in downtown Concord, MA, a bit after 1 PM for a light lunch. Parking behind the building was free. I sat at the bar, which was a fun perch to see what was going on. The customers at bar and at tables seemed happy, in conversation and enjoying their food, with friendly service from staff. I started with the house Cabernet Sauvignon - loved it, and the pour was generous and price reasonable. My bartender brought me a generous basket of garlic bread sticks and dipping sauce to enjoy while I awaited a delicious bowl of corn chowder with two packs of oyster crackers as my main lunch. Finishing that, I lingered over the dessert menu, and could not resist the apple crisp (fresh sliced apples & cinnamon baked with crunchy oats, topped with a scoop of vanilla gelato). The black coffee with free refills went well with this. Fiorella's has delicious food and a cozy atmosphere and style. I will be back for dinner soon.
