Fiorella Polk

In 2015, Brandon approached Boris with an idea: a delicious, quality, wood-fired pizza shop with fresh ingredients was needed in the Richmond District of San Francisco.As an SF native who grew up a few blocks from Fiorella, Boris was excited by this concept. The Richmond District had not been a place for fine dining when he was a kid. This idea presented an opportunity to bring soulful, classic Italian cooking with a modern and fresh approach to Clement Street.
