Fiume 37

The only Italian restaurant in Querétaro with food that is good without qualification and authentic. I tried five others in centro historico in past three months, ranging from worst ever to bad to below average. I had the mushroom risotto, which was absolutely perfect. One of the best risottos I had in or out of Italy. The lasagna bolognese was good.

The service was excellent. I can't fault any aspect of the service.

The atmosphere was very good. It's a small place, two rooms. There is air conditioning. I was seated in the front room at a window table without a reservation.

As one reviewer noted, I did see mosquitoes, killed one, saw one dead one. Also a couple flies, and a couple extremely tiny gnats. They keep the front door open, where there's a valet stand at the courtyard door. If they protected that entrance, it would probably solve 90% of the bug problem.

Wonderful cozy place for an Italian dinner. Relaxing background music plus perfect illumination and decoration. Most important, the food is quite good. We ordered the octopus entrée, a lasagna bolognesa and a pizza. Nothing bad with the food though.
The only "negative" thing from our experience was the presence of mosquitoes... Although it is a closed place, somehow there were lots of mosquitoes having me as their dinner :(.

And just as reference, the place has valet parking but the fee is voluntary.

NOT WORTH THE HYPE! The one star comes from the excellent and attentive service. The restaurant is so weird. Its like a house converted to restaurant. For a minute I thought it was a café. The food and drinks were ok but there were a few things I didn't expect from what I ordered. I wasn't handed a cocktail menu but was told they could make anything. So, I picked a passion fruit martini and tell me why it had chili salt on the rim for $190 pesos each. It wasn't a margarita or michelada ????! I'm trying to watch my sodium intake. As for my food, I tried the ahi tuna, a dish known to be savory. Tell me why there was no mention on the menu of a sweet sauce drizzled all over it. Sweet sauces make my stomach hurt I would have asked without or just picked something else. It was very disappointing... I DO NOT RECOMMEND.

This was such a wonderful experience. Excellent service by the staff and the best Italian food. I had the Fiume salad and the pasta with clams. It was heaven.

I am so glad I got the chance to dine here while visiting. If you are in Querétaro make sure you grab an Uber and go to Fiume 37.

Easily the best meal I’ve had in Queretaro. The tuna tartare starter was so fresh and delightful. The beef medallions main with mashed potatoes in a brown gravy, that tasted of beef, red wine, and garlic with chunks of (portabella?) mushrooms throughout, was positively divine! If I weren’t leaving town tomorrow I would return... tomorrow, lol! The Maracuya mezcal
Martini was tasty as well. Service was friendly and prompt. Was it cheap? NO... but then that’s why the quality and flavors were so exceptional. I would consider it priced on par with the quality. I highly recommend.

Amazing restaurant with quality dishes, great wine selection, service and location. It’s a must if you’re in the area. Trust your server’s suggestions, they’re well trained and never miss. The valet parking is highly convenient.

The food is good. The ambiance ok but not great (maybe I just had bad luck in the location I was assigned). Pricing a but on the high end but but consistent with the setting (ambiance) experience
