Fiore is an Italian inspired restaurant located in the heart of South Granville. They curate a seasonal menu and wine list, and use fresh local ingredients in their dishes. I dropped by last week for a quiet catch up dinner with a friend. Antipasti Board – Finocchiona, Lonza Soppressata, Piave, Taleggio, Smoked Cavalo, Marinated Squid, White Bean Salad, Grilled Fennel Salad, Basil Arancini with Rhubarb Mostarda, House Sausage and Focaccia ($40.00)
If you like to start with your Italian dinner with some antipasto and an aperitif cocktail, you will be happy to see the Negroni Lounge menu at Fiore. With 10 adaptations of the famous drink of Italy, you will find the right one before a lovely meal. My first impression of Fiore was from last year’s Tasting Plates South Granville, a restaurant crawl event that helps locals discover good eats in the neighbourhood. “Neighbourhood gem” is probably best for describing the restaurant – cozy, friend but elegant, and perfect for a neighbourhood that is known for shopping, galleries, and casual fine dining.
I love days when my only problem is pizza or pasta. However, when my friend and fellow foodie Kristina went to Fiore this past week, we didn’t need to choose between the two; we went with both. Fiore is a new addition to the dining scene in South Granville and they are operated by the same people who run The Stable House Bistro.
