A fun place to eat...a speakeasy. Non descript from the front, you wouldn't know it to be a restaurant from the outside. But once you get through the foyer, a long room opens where you might expect to see Pretty Boy Floyd or Bonnie and Clyde drinking bootleg whiskey. Food was great, Drinks and service were better. Plenty of long tables for large groups, a patio area (but too cold). Try it, you will love it!

I have always wanted to experience a tea at Floris - but alas I am vegan. So when they announced their vegan tea date I immediately secured a reservation for myself and my non-vegan daughter. It was simply - magical. Every moment intentionally crafted to delight the senses. The food was - glorious! Creative, playful, delicious - the vegan element disappeared because the food was just - so lovely. It felt like the chef had such fun creating these delights for us. It was special. I hope this event will continue to be and option....I can't wait to go again (and again and again)!! Bravo!!!!

It was my girlfriend’s first time and she loved it. The food was flavorful and service was attentive w/out being intrusive. I got the pork cheek stuffed quail and I’ll be thinking about how great it was for a while!
