Flo Paris

Flo Paris, which opened in 2015 on Westheimer between Chimney Rock and Fountain View, helps fill the city's lack of casual French dining options. Owners Florelle and and Rabih Salibi bring over 20 years of experience operating restaurants in Paris to Flo, and the restaurant aims to be as authentic as if it were operating on the Champs-Élysées.
Everything, from breads to pastries to sandwich meats, is made from scratch, and that freshness comes through in the taste of items like the roast beef sandwich and thyme croissant. Save room for dessert or miss the indulgence of a mousse cake that French cowboy Philippe Schmit rates as "3-star Michelin."
