We couldnât find anything that suited our dietary needs. I asked the bartender if we could just get some fettuccini Alfredo, nothing else, no chicken, shrimp or anything. He said âsure, this is an Italian restaurant, we will make you what you want, your way, would you like to split the order? I said that would be great. Within 10 minutes he returned with the most delicious fettuccini Alfredo I can recall. The pasta was homemade and it was a most enjoyable, reasonably priced lunch I recall. Nice job! Kudos!

Lovely family Italian restaurant and pizzeria. Visited with 2 other family members and enjoyed ourselves. Service was great. At least 4 different associates came by including owner to check up on our dinner, pizza, and drinks. Meal was well prepared and enjoyable. Had an Italian dinner two days earlier at another restaurant which cost 5 times more for 6 people-a mistake. Should have picked Piccolo Sotho instead.In summary, great food, reasonable prices, good value, nice presentation, great service where you are not forgotten. Italy comes to Flushing. Will return on next trip. thank you

Fiamma 41 opened it's doors in October of 2013. Though the restaurant is very young, the recipes are not. Mama Maria, whose recipes are the inspiration for Fiamma 41's food program, was born in Matera, Italy, where she learned how to prepare only the most

Just had dinner here tonight with friends for the first time. We arrived at 7pm and were seated promptly after a very warm welcome. The place was packed with other patrons. We ordered a variety of dishes and they were all great. I especially liked my salmon. But what was the best about our experience was the wonderful service from start to finish. Thank you so much! We're so happy to hear you had a great time with us from beginning to end and can't wait to see you again soon!

Being American Italian and very picky with Italian restaurants, this place is excellent. Everything was amazing. The only issues is that they are not big fans of menus (wine list and dessert). They have them but our waiter preferred to tell us, which was a little tough to understand with a thick Italian accent. I wouldâve ordered more, but I couldnât understand half of what he was saying. Then the coat girl insisted we check our coats, but yet half the place had their coats on the back of their chairs. I didnât get that. Food is amazing and worth checking out.

Picked up a pie and some side slices over the weekend. The pie was half peppers and onions and the side slices included mushrooms and pepperoni. We're still chewing on the pizza hours later. The dough and cheese were super rubbery and unwelcomed. Even our 3-year old pizza monster daughter didn't finish her slice. The pizza chef is on the crusty side too. Wouldn't mind seeing a plastic glove or two worn or a hand wash between customers. Really tough to get a good slice in north east queens in general. Best bets are Amores and Grimaldis. Allora is not bad, too. Good luck.

Came for an early dinner. Service was great. Enjoyed a Cesar salad (we shared) and several entrees: branzino with pasta; mahi mahi; parmigiana platter; and bow tie pasta with saffron sauce. All were delicious. Took home leftovers. Yum. Thereâs valet parking which makes it convenient.

Delicious Spanish and Mediterranean food and great service. This has long been a favorite Bayside restaurant . We enjoyed a delicious dinner: steak cooked perfectly and sole stuffed with lobster and crab with lobster sauce. There was entertainment on Friday night. Entrees are $26,95. - $34,95. Paella is excellent too.
