   With a few tweaks, this place could be great, but sadly our meal was very meh. The homemade pasta was good, but everything lacked salt and flavor. Even the Caesar salad was milky and kind of flat (fresh pepper would have helped, but there was no salt and pepper anywhere). I ordered an $8 mango mocktail margarita, and it was literally mango nectar from a jug poured over ice with a sugar rim. I asked for it not to be spicy, but it didn’t even have the lemon and lime juices or tajin rim the menu described. Our waitress didn’t seem interested in explaining anything to us (we wished we had the waiter next to us because we could hear him describing things and showing passion for what he did.)

   Creative and amazing atmosphere. The ambiance is comforting innovative and comfortable. The service is top notch. The server took his time to explain everything in detail and made sure we were well taken care of. The food was beyond our expectations. From the presentation the flavor the portion sizes and value. This is definitely an underrated brunch spot. Get the mango mimosa!

   I came here when it first opened and I LOVED it. Unfortunately, my experience with the food was subpar the second time around. My salad was barely dressed (and the flavors did not favor each other); my friend’s mac & cheese was liquidy (as she said - she got served soup); and the lasagna bites had the most odd flavor that totally ruined them. Even the bread course, which was my favorite my first visit, was just okay this time around due to much less herb butter/sauce (which prevented the flavor punch I was expecting). Aside from the soup mac, the rest of us liked our pasta but weren’t blown away. The best thing we ate was the pear/prosciutto/burrata dish; I’d for sure get that again. Our server was lovely and the ambiance is great; but I was super bummed the food didn’t live up to my initial visit.

   Went for Mother’s Day brunch. Really cute space. Loved the design. And the food was equally beautiful as it was delicious. It wasn’t jam packed with people so we were all able to hear each other and enjoy the family company.

   Food wasn’t good. Blandest short rib pasta I’ve ever had; I don’t think they even added salt. The poor hostess was running around like a chicken with its head cut off, the place wasn’t that busy. It was out servers second day on the job (literally), she was the best part of the experience. The espresso martini drink was good.

   The restaurant is beautiful and in a great location providing a wonderful ambience. After that, it kind of goes downhill. The bread and drinks were delicious. The lasagna bites were mainly pasta deep fried since filling was inconsistent and sparing. The 2 salad options were mediocre. The worst Caesar I’ve ever had- the salad dressing was liquidy and tasted like the smell of dishwater. For a placed named Flour the expectation for the pasta dishes will be high and I was disappointed by the most basic standards. Zero flavor in the short rib dish such that I was madly adding salt. It’s cool to make the pasta in house but the meal needs to be tasty and it just underdelivered. Cajun dish noodle was undercooked and struggling to called Cajun. Miso and white bean was ok. We asked for refills on the lemonade and the server failed to inform us that they were not free refills- we had 4 to wash down the taste of the good. Sorry, I really wanted to like this place.

   This was our first time going. Everything tasted bland, no flavor or seasonings. My salad tasted like water. The noodles were beyond over cooked. Our waitress was fantastic. The food on the other hand was not impressive.

    We really enjoyed the pear snack, Parmesan bread and caesar salad. The entrees were good but a little too spicy for us. We were warned by our waitress but we decided to be adventurous. Next time we will try a more traditional entree over a fusion entree. We were very cold due to sitting right under the fans. They are still working out the temperature controls so pack a sweater just in case. The mango herbal tea was delicious and helped warm us up quickly!
