Oakland
Flora
Oakland, CA, 94612, United States
Known for its handcrafted cocktails and New American cuisine, this lively restaurant is housed in the former Oakland Floral Depot, a blue-and-silver Art Deco building constructed in 1931. Inside, the dining room evokes the glamour of that era with black-and-white-tiled floors, vintage bar stools, and period movie posters. The menu tends toward the classics, with options like the house-ground chuck burger with caramelized onion, and for dessert, the salted caramel pudding with a rosemary pine-nut cookie. The cocktail list includes inventive originals such as Carter Beats the Devil, made with tequila, agave nectar, mescal, fresh lime juice, and chili tincture.
Insider Tip:
Flora is located across from the Fox Theatre, making it a great place for pre-show dining. Just be aware that the restaurant is typically crowded and noisy before a concert.
