By now, I've already been to Flora & Muse twice. Once for big poppa's bday and then another time with some friends. The food there is pretty good. There hasn't been anything that I've ordered or that anyone else ordered that has been bad. The decor is really nice. I imagine a modern day marie antoinette dining here. There's two sides to the restaurant. You have the main dining area on one side and then there's a smaller section on the other side where you can get some coffee and pastries and even some fresh flowers. Talk about high over-head! The biggest con about this place is the how long it takes for the food to come out. FOREVER. You really have to come here with the mentality that you are here for a super leisure meal. Both times, the servers that I had just didn't seem to have that panache a server needs to make my time there comfortable. On my first visit, there was no wait but the food did take a good amount of time to come out. Especially since we only had a club sandwich and some pretty typical morning fare. On our second visit however, it was just HORRIBLE. We arrived around 1pm and waited so long that by the time they sat us down, we were told that breakfast time was over. There was this disappointed groan that went around cos now most of us had to start over in deciding what we were going to order. Not only that, it seemed as if they had ran out of EVERYTHING! One of the girls was shut down three times before she settled with the chicken and mushroom crepe that several others had also decided to order. Poor girl! We all felt so bad and she was noticeably irritated and upset. And she had every right to be! As expected, the food took a century to make it out. Even our drinks took a good amount of time to make it out. When we finished our meals, our server asked if wanted any dessert. I piped up and was like, on the house? He said no. Then he came back and said it didn't hurt to ask and said his manager had given the okay. Our server said not to go crazy. We ordered three items. They were aight. I wouldn't bother with any of the desserts. As horrible as it was, I would definitely go back for the food. But maybe I'll mos def stick to going on a weekday. Pics below are from first visit only.

I should of told you it took awhile for the food to come out. When I went with Stephanie (who had been like 5 times before), the first thing she did was get something from the bakery to nibble on..but still can't wait to go there when I come home, especially after looking at that breakfast tray....yum
