Fantastic restaurant in every way- Exceptional service, lovely ambience, went above and beyond for birthday dinner with complementary glasses of champagne, desserts and banana bread. Duck wings and duck dinner is outstanding!! Everything prepared beautifully and quality of ingredients was superb. Not overly priced and truly a gourmet experience.

Floriana was a wonderful experience to celebrate my grandmothers 82nd birthday. Our waiter was professional, helpful and attentive. The staff even took the time to write her a hand written birthday card which really meant a lot to her. Our food was delicious. Highly recommend !
