The restaurant also offers a vibrant brunch experience, including a buffet with many options such as an omelette station, prime rib and lamb station, breakfast favorites, cheeses, fresh fruits, bacon, sausage, pancakes, waffles, scrambled eggs, shrimp, salmon, sushi, chicken selections, a chocolate fountain, and various desserts. A kids' station features pizza, chicken strips, fries, and mac and cheese. Reviewers mention that the hot items are sometimes not consistently warm, and the brunch costs $100 per person, which some find expensive. Many appreciate the variety and the ability to enjoy several dishes, with some noting that the dishes come in appetizer-sized portions, allowing for trying multiple items. The atmosphere is bright with beautiful decor, and parking is easy to find nearby.

Recent visitors enjoyed their early dinner, noting that the food was excellent, with well-cooked appetizers and main courses, and reasonable portions. The ambiance was lively, although the music volume was a bit high for some. Service was described as okay. Others chose Flower & Wolf for a family Thanksgiving brunch and praised the à la carte buffet menu, highlighting items like avocado & hash brown, prosciutto & ricotta, AAA AB beef brisket, AB beef marrow, and fun options like smoothie & cotton candy. They appreciated the chef checking in to ensure everything was satisfactory and the friendly, patient service, especially with demanding family members. The bright decor created a pleasant atmosphere, and parking was convenient. The price of $39 was considered a great deal. A group of friends also enjoyed brunch, noting the dishes were flavorful and served hot and fresh, though they found the service somewhat slow and sometimes difficult to flag down for more dishes or drinks.

Recent reviews add more perspective: one guest attended a birthday brunch and felt the food was mass-produced and kept under a lamp, with some items like the smoothie bowl and yogurt warm rather than fresh. Others enjoyed the salad and chicken waffle, describing their experience as overall good with a reasonable price. Another reviewer booked the AYCE Brunch, noting the wide variety of choices but mentioning that not everything matched their taste. They enjoyed the mac and cheese and coffee with croissant, but found some dishes, like Bone Marrow canoe, too salty. They waited about 10-15 minutes before being attended to but appreciated that once served, the food arrived continuously. They suggest servers could better divide their areas for more efficient service. Overall, they enjoyed their time and found the staff accommodating.

Another recent guest tried the bottomless brunch, calling it one of the best in the city and worth the cost. While they praised the food and ambiance, they felt service was lacking—water was not refilled for two hours, and plates needed to be requested to be cleared. When requesting water refills, the server appeared dissatisfied and questioned who their actual server was. They also ordered a mimosa flight, which they found tasty and strong. Despite some service shortcomings, the overall brunch experience was positive.
