We had the pleasure of dining at La Fiamma yesterday. Italian wine served with the most authentic food. Our waiter Thabo gave us excellent service, making our night truly special. Thank you for the treat. We will definitely return to this gem in Faerie Glen. Grazie

Looking for that classic, yet simplistic, Italian charm? La Fiamma is without a doubt one of the best Italian restaurants in Pretoria. Every dining experience has been unforgettable - from the waiters that carry themselves with such class and ease to the relaxed and elegant atmosphere. Each dish is beautifully presented, and you can tell La Fiamma uses the highest quality of ingredients - perfect for that Instagram post. I'd recommend you try La Fiamma's slow roasted pork belly with a crisp glass of Chardonnay.

A firm neighborhood favorite.Seafood pasta, loaded with seafood and wild boar pasta, paper thin melting carpaccio, some of the best thin crust pizza in Pretoria. Various specials on offer, a bacon wrapped rump topped with avocado and gorgonzola sauce, kabeljou in a light coconut curry sauce. Really themed tasting events, whiskey, gin and craft beer. Really good service and friendly management

My boyfriend and I came here on a Saturday evening for a meal. I remember when this restaurant was still Pascali's, and the food was great even then, so I had set a high standard going on.
We were greeted instantly by the lady at front of house, and shown to a lovely, warm and quiet spot near the pizza oven. The ambiance is enjoyable. it's busy but not packed and it buzzes but doesn't get loud. It was freezing outside, so the pizza oven was a welcome source of warmth!
I had their salmon and vodka pasta, which was lovely and well balanced. If you're a smoked salmon fan, you'll definitely enjoy it. My boyfriend had the Maialino pizza, which was a bit sweet for our taste but nice and crispy throughout. The springbok carpaccio starter was a special of the day and to be honest, the highlight of the evening - highly recommended with a glass of red wine!
One thing that stood out was the service. It really was excellent. Attentive without being pushy, and our waitress offered us some good recommendations and let us know about the specials.
I will be coming back.

My boyfriend and I went to La Fiamma on Tuesday for dinner. We were served by a wonderful waitor. Can't remember his name. All of the waiters were very helpful and accommodating. My boyfriend had the chicken liver starters which were delicious! I had the grilled calamari tubes starter, which was by far the best calamari I have ever eaten! I had the fillet steak for mains with roasted veg and potato wedges with the mushroom, cream and brandy sauce. It was absolutely to die for! Steak cooked perfectly. Veggies and wedges were delicious and sauce was amazing. My boyfriend had the rib-eye on the bone and added prawns. He said it was amazing! We then shared the lindt & amarula pastry dessert, which was the best dessert I have tasted in years! Amazing experience at La Fiamma. Great ambience. Lovely setting! Will DEFINITELY be back!!
