While breathtaking park views and 40+ chandeliers are enough to make anyone fall in love with this glass treehouse, this dining destination also offers a top-notch culinary experience that explores the flavors and energy of the small towns of Mexico with a Texas touch. FLORA’s contemporary approach reimagines what Mexican food can be – offering familiar flavors and iconic dishes, newly interpreted. FLORA strips away the formality of dining with a focus on clean, organic, high-quality food made with love, made by hand. The stunning brass and marble bar, teeming with tequila and mezcal, sets the tone for a lively social scene and the unparalleled outdoor terrace is the quintessential Houston outdoor dining experience. For parties of 7+ guests, please submit a private dining request. Out of respect for our chandeliers, we do not allow balloons. We ask that you celebrate your special occasions with our desserts as we do not allow outside cakes. We ask that you leave your pets at home.

This was our first trip to B&B, so we tried as much as we could. The 4 appetizers were some of the best that Houston has to offer! The crab cake was nearly 100% meat with almost no filler & was really mild. The cheese covered pork belly was better than any I've tried. Excellent tuna tartar & their calamari was atleast in the top 3 that we've had. For our main entrees, my wife had the wasabi crusted ahi tuna & it was really fresh. I had the prime rib. The prime was seasoned really well but not as tender as I was expecting. Over all, the food & service were excellent & we are looking forward to trying some different main entrees next time around.
