Falora

Always good Italian pizza, delicious dough and bread, and tasty butternut and kale salads with their own cashew dressing! Vegan cheese options too.

I had dinner here last night with three friends. We sat outside, because there was a 30-45 minute wait for an indoor table. The weather was nice, so it was pleasant, though the server did not come around very often. We split three dishes: Manhattanara pizza ($17.95), which comes with mushrooms and gorgonzola; Figaro pizza ($17.95), which comes with brie, figs and walnuts; and panna cotta ($7.95), which comes with homemade jam on top.Although the Manhattanara was my choice, I ended up not really liking it; I guess I don't like gorgonzola after all. The Figaro was better, though I can't say I loved it. The panna cotta was great. In general, the pizzas are unusual, and many are vegetarian. Overall, my experience was not bad but not as good as I had expected. (This was my first visit in many years.)

Falora is a charming little Italian spot with very good pizza and a solid set of vegan options and substitutions. First things first: we're bread fiends, and their bread was GREAT. It came out so hot I almost burned my fingers on it, and was absolutely delicious -- especially when dipped in balsamic and olive oil. 10/10, no notes. Will absolutely order again! For pizzas, we got the Arrosto (a sauceless pizza with feta, eggplant, yukon gold potatoes, dates, and white truffle oil) and a Marinara pizza with added vegan mozzarella and vegan chorizo. While I really enjoyed the flavors of the Arrosto, particularly the salty-sweet-earthy play between the dates, feta, and potatoes, it was a little on the dry side. We were really happy to have flexibility of so many vegan options, and plan to go back and try more pizzas and salads! One note: it got LOUD over the course of the evening. When we first arrived, it was lively but quiet enough to easily chat. Over the course of our meal, it ended up getting so loud that we actually gave up trying to talk because we couldn't hear each other at all. It might be worth trying to go at less busy times if you're sensitive to noise or just prefer a quieter atmosphere.

Cozy romantic atmosphere and perfect service. We tried a vegan pizza, the gnocchi and chocolate torte. All were delicious! Such a lovely experience. Thank you for such amazing vegan options!!

Second visit - just as good as the first...Heirloom caprese and a Bianca Pizza Pie - Wonderful. Special shout out to Alix who took exceptional care of us and made the evening extra special - see you soon Falora!

Since I loved the pizza here, I decided to go back to see if the service improved. The manager/owner reached out to me with a sincere apology for my experience and encouraged me to give their restaurant another visit. I was very pleased this time. The staff was friendly and professional. I'm glad to see that the service improved!

The food is fantastic, and my partner and I love all the vegan options. I was concerned that I wouldn't find anything to eat on the menu after I recently learned I have gluten sensitivity. I shouldn't have worried! When we made our reservation, they noted my sensitivity and delivered a delicious Butter Pecan salad to me and the El Fauxrizo to my partner. They even had several gluten-free dessert options! We selected the raspberry topped panna cotta. Yum!As usual, the service was attentive but not overbearing. We also enjoy the vibe. We'll be back!

It's cozy inside with a few tables. It was a little hot inside, but likely due to the pizza oven. The service was friendly and attentive. The bread came out hot and the pizzas came soon after. The crust was thin and slightly charred. There were unique pizza flavors, but subtle and not in your face.

I haven't explored this side of town for food yet. But my friends went to this place to try it out, and unfortunately they have work to do. First, the waitress was unprofessional and rude to use when we were asked for our orders. Second, the pizza was decent and a bit soggy, which was very weird. Third, they did not put our pizzas in a pizza box rather than a weird box for pasta. Also our dessert came in a coffee cup, which was weird again. I don't think we will come back until they fix their service or change in leadership.

Great vegan options!! I tried their hazelnut gnocchi, vegan margarita and the torta for dessert. Everything was delicious and the food was prepared so fast! If you're looking for a cute Italian restaurant with good vegan options this is it!
