After visiting Longwood Gardens, we stopped at Floga Bistro and I’m so glad we did! I have celiac disease, so finding a truly satisfying gluten-free Italian meal can be difficult. I ordered the Rustico with chicken and gluten-free pasta and it was absolutely amazing. I honestly can’t remember the last time I had a dish like that which tasted so good.
One thing that really stood out was the thoughtful service. When bread was brought out for the table, they brought me my own toasted gluten-free roll. That small gesture meant a lot. Usually I just sit there watching everyone else enjoy bread and olive oil, but this time I got to join in (I skipped the olive oil and used butter). It made the experience feel much more inclusive.
Great food, generous portions, and attentive service. If you’re gluten-free and craving Italian, this place is definitely worth a visit!

Birthday celebration was all the more fun because of the terrific service & enjoyable food.

The menu is vast. The burger I had and his pasta dish were both amazing. We brought at least half of it home! The service was prompt and quiet; non invasive. I do like the concept of BYOB although we chose not to this time around. Can't wait until next time so I can try another dish!
Fred
Wonderful meals, extraordinary service. Our server, Olivia, was exceptional and very attentive to our table. Will spread the word about Floga Bistro- five stars!
Nick

We stopped at Floga Bistro before a trip to Longwood Gardens. Lots of excellent menu choices and the food was great! Service was quick, friendly and professional. Loved the brick oven pizza! Would definitely visit again, and recommend highly.
Jennifer
Food and service were fantastic. And the prices very reasonable in this age of $20 burgers. No wonder it was so busy!!!

Great little mom-and-pop restaurant with a warm, neighborhood feel. They recently expanded the space, and it shows—from the additional tables to the dedicated area for larger parties, the layout now feels much more accommodating. There are cozy booths for smaller groups and a well-organized pickup counter that keeps takeout traffic moving smoothly. It’s BYOB, but they offer a solid selection of espresso drinks, soft drinks, and teas to round things out.
We started with the mozzarella sticks, which were crisp on the outside with a nice, stretchy pull—simple but well executed. The chicken parm was a standout: tender cutlet, well-seasoned sauce, and just the right amount of cheese. The penne vodka was comforting and rich without feeling overly heavy, and the bread they serve is the kind you keep reaching for without thinking. The only miss for us was the tortellini; the flavor profile was a bit off and didn’t quite come together the way the other dishes did. Overall, the prices were reasonable and we’d definitely go back!

We stopped at this quaint little place for lunch before heading to Longwood Gardens. We didn't realize it was a BYOB but luckily there is a Giant right next store so my friend ran over and grabbed a bottle of wine. The food and service were both very good and fast served. If we visit the area again, we will be sure to stop in.
Avoid this place at all cost. My chicken parm was very dry . Not well cooked. My group of 5 came from longwood we never have been there and they charge a technology fee. Didn’t see a sign that they charged. Just spoke to the gm and doesn’t care.

Great burgers and great service! My boyfriend and I went here for our anniversary and everything was great! Our waitress was very nice and attentive and our burgers were amazing. Also- be sure to get the homemade potato chips when ordering a sandwich or burger! They’re awesome. Will be coming back here soon! :)

I am a fan of Floga Bistro. The service and food are very good. The warm rolls are delicious, the food portions are good sizes, the food is very good, and the desserts are yummy. This is a great place to go if you are going to Longwood Gardens. I highly recommend Floga Bistro.

The gluten free pizzas are above average but still not a dupe for regular. They were drier than expected. The mozerella or whatever cheese was on the White pizza gets a little hard where it browns and feels like a choking hazard . I don't believe there's oil or any kind of sauce on the White pizzas. Next time I'd get one of the salads that sound really good
