Editorial Review for Florent – by Allison Austin

In Short
Before the Meatpacking District was uber-cool, this retro diner was a destination for its better-than-it-needs-to-be food and its laid-back but hip scene. The menu includes steak frites, onion soup and black sausage, killer salads and more traditional coffee-shop favorites. Breakfast is served anytime, the prix-fixe brunch is a good bargain and includes a bloody mary or mimosa, and the coffee is strong.

I went here on a Monday night for dinner. It was about half full when we walked in so the host sat the two of us at a 4 person table. Then another server came up to us, and with a bit of attitude, asked us whether we were actually seated there or if we seated ourselves. The host seated us there so I didn't understand the attitude. Then a third server came up to us and said that it was too early and he couldn't afford to seat us at a four person table. I was annoyed but thought maybe this place gets packed later, even though it was only Monday night. Let's just say that I counted how many tables were full when we left and they could have given us 10 tables and they would have been fine. Our server had attitude which I didn't appreciate and we were looking for him for 15-20 minutes just to get the check, the tables were cramped and the food was mediocre. I do not recommend this place at all.

Cons: Service, Food, Atmosphere
