My best friend and I came to celebrate her early birthday this past Saturday, first, making online reservations was really easy and it was even easier to modify the reservations when plans changed a bit.
Flora is absolutely bright and beautiful and a great little addition to North Parks cool hipster vibes. I love the how welcoming the team here is and the decor is just really fun and vibey.
To start we had the caramelized brie French toast to share along with a couple cocktails, I ordered the passion fruit mojito while the birthday girl got the lychee spritz.
Can I just say how good both drinks were, not overly sweet and super refreshing. The brie French toast was so good, they added fresh mint pieces which really tied in the sweetness from the honey and the nuttiness from the brie. I wish it were just a little warmer, it was pretty cold when we got it.
For our mains I ordered the smoked salmon croissant benedict while the birthday girl got the chicken and waffles. This is the first time I've ever ordered smoked salmon anything, usually I just try it off of a friends plate but for some reason today I really wanted to try it. Personally, I have had better smoked salmon, this one was just okay, not enough smokiness and maybe could use a little bit more seasoning? The potatoes were crispy but again really lacked seasoning for me, the birthday girl did thoroughly enjoy her meal so that's a plus.
To go, we both chose the strawberry matcha "pink cloud" and that would be a reason why I would go back. Perfect balance of matcha and strawberry and really wired me for the rest of the day.
I wish I could give this a solid 5, overall, service, ambiance and drinks were great, I just wish my food was better. Would I come again, yes, my try happy hour next.
