Went here for the first time ever with my husband and toddler for Valentine’s Day and I have to say, I wasn’t impressed at all. I made a reservation for us 3 and they didn’t have the table ready for all 3 of us, we were short on silverware for most of the time we were there, we had to share. The inside is very nice and clean and I loved the ambience, the drinks were good, too, but that’s it. We only saw our server only once or twice in the whole 3 hours we were there. I had to ask other servers to help us when we needed it. Our drinks came out at a somewhat decent time but got our Garlic Bread appetizer 45 minutes after we ordered it. We didn’t get our food til an hour and a half after we ordered it and our food came out cold! My husband ordered his steak Medium and it came out RARE. He only took 2 bites of his food and we just left because our experience was just that horrible and went for SO LONG. I had ordered the Lobster Ravioli and it was good but it was cold and waaaay too salty. I couldn’t enjoy it as much as I wanted to because the sauce had a lot of Lobster shell bits that I had to keep spitting out. I think the food is overpriced as well. The Lobster Ravioli only came with 3 raviolis. Yes it was busy but the only thing that was coming out of that kitchen for the most part were drinks and I give a huge round of applause for the bartenders that could actually keep up with their work. I absolutely will NOT be coming back here. I think this is my first actual bad review I’ve made. Save your money and time and go somewhere else….

I stopped by Flair Taverna for lunch on my own and had a great overall experience. The atmosphere is excellent, relaxed, stylish, and the music really adds to the vibe. This place would be perfect for a date night.
My waiter, Chris, was amazing. He was attentive and even offered me an off-menu option when I asked for a chicken lunch. I ended up trying the Al Limon Chicken, which isn’t listed on the menu. To be fair, since it’s not something they regularly make, the flavor was a bit too strong for my taste, the lime was overpowering, and there was a little too much garlic.
Even though the dish wasn’t quite what I expected, everything else about the visit was great. I’ll definitely give Flair Taverna a second chance and stick to the menu next time. Will give another try soon.

My husband and I went here for our anniversary and it was delicious! Our server “Kacey” was awesome! The environment was nice and romantic. The food was delicious and the drinks were also. We had a great experience and we will definitely be back! 🙂

It may have been better before. My paella did not taste good. They said it had too much saffron. The rack of lamb was awesome, but the risotto with it was under cooked and overly oily. Desert was fine. If you know fine dining, you will be disappointed.

The atmosphere, service and food was so incredible! I enjoyed it so much. Came in last minute after a bad experience somewhere else & we will definitely be back!
They have such a GREAT system going & it was truly the BEST experience we’ve had at a restaurant here in Odessa.

We’ve been here before and had a great experience- tonight undid this.
Appetizer was good, drink was wrong.. We then waited over an hour for our food, (2 pasta dishes). I ordered the Frutti de Mare and was picking at it (wondering if my taste buds were off), because it was so sour and fishy, when my husband leans over and ask what was rotting in my bowl! (The seafood had soured.)
We informed the waitress, and they ultimately brought me another dish.
When we got our check we were informed the meal was discounted due to the wait and food issues. Though we then noticed a salad charge had been added for $8 after the waitress told us it was included.. We decided to ignore it and move it on as everything had taken over 2 hours and we were trying to leave.
The waitress gave us a check for $88 and took our card. When she returned with the receipt to sign, the amount has gone up to $112!?
I grabbed the check and went to the front, (as we were tired of the dodgy waitress). We showed the man and woman the issue to which the man quickly told us the upcharge was due to us paying by card… ($24??? – no). I quickly showed him at the bottom that the card rate was $92, try again. He and the girl kept looking at it and seemed confused.. I asked him to simply refund it all and I would pay with cash. No response. I repeated it again and he snips at me saying they’re working on it…
He leaves and the girl is still working on it- after a few more minutes she concludes this is the correct amount because our ticket was discounted due to the food issues…. What!? I explain back, yes, our food was discounted to $88, so why are you charging us the original price.. !? I again ask her to refund the amount off my card and tell her I will pay cash. She finally figured this out and we leave.
Two different people trying to placate me, lie to me and pull random nonsensical excuses over on me doesn’t fly for me. This whole experience took close to 3 hours, and never received an apology.
Bad food, bad service, trying to overcharge us, and Then playing games– We will Not be back!

Went with a big party from work, around 60 people. Food came out a little slow, and we did make reservation, so they knew a big party was coming. They were out of ribeye steaks, food came out look warm, but it tasted good. Our servers didn’t know seat numbers, so, they were a little overwhelmed I think. But, given the situation, I’ll try the place again
The crab cakes were incredible!!!

The food was great but the reason for the review is because of the excellent experience! We went last night (Friday), and there was a live band playing. Thankfully, we had made a reservation because when we got there, it started filling up fast. Not long after we sat down, we were introduced to our waitress whose name is Ashley. She was magnificent! Our water glass never got empty, we never had plates sitting in front of us that were empty. The musical experience was wonderful by Eric Baker and his lovely wife. It was such a romantic experience. There were some “cowboys” getting really loud and yelling at the bar ruining the atmosphere, but they left soon after. I assume someone said something to them. this was such a romantic place, especially if you’re looking for a date night. Very classy, and upscale. My boyfriend got the lobster risotto (pictured) and he said it was amazing! He also got the Murphy (pictured) and said it was OK. I got the fettuccine and it was OK. The charcuterie board was pretty decent, and their wine list is not excellent, but I got the rosé that paired well with the fettuccine (pictured) and charcuterie board. My boyfriend got a cocktail called the Roxxi (pictured) and he absolutely loved it. Overall, it was one of the best experiences. We will be back. It is a little pricey, so be prepared for that. For everything we got however, it was not that bad. I should also mention that we went around 6 PM or so. The later crowd that started coming in as we were getting ready to leave started changing the atmosphere a little bit. Definitely recommend!

Well, the food fell short. I was having High hopes from seeing reviews that’s why I always have to go myself ! We ordered the cheese bread for an appetizer, it was like 10 dollars for 4 bites of the thinnest bread dish I’ve ever seen, nice presentation though. We ordered drinks that took a long time to get there. They have a lot of waitresses making sure your water is full, but speak a little English and can’t help with checking on drinks or anything. I ordered a Lobster Risotto dish also for an appetizer It came out pretty quick, as I was eating the dish I noticed you can barely see any Lobster meat at all, that’d were a few minces of meat. I would have been happy with a few small chunks, but almost non existent. I shine that off, then go on to Ordering the rack of lamb, cooked medium . They did great on the cook! The flavor could have used a little more seasoning and some acid(a red wine reduction or balsamic vinegar blend would have brought the dish full circle), it came with risotto but needed something else on the side like Asparagus. My wife ordered the Chicken Alfredo Fettuccine pasta, the pasta itself was good, the flavors were lacking though and that could definitely throw in some more ingredients in there! It was pretty Basic, and the chicken was like like pieces, I’m a cook and wouldn’t serve any pasta with chicken looking like that ! It was nice inside, nice setting, staff was nice, also had live music but the band wasn’t great and I just wasn’t sucked into the experience like I hoped I was. It was super expensive, for what you get really not worth it for me. I would probably go to the bar for a few drinks maybe but I wouldn’t go for dinner again. Overall it fell short, I’d give it a 3.4 out of 5 stars and I could Not Reccomend!
