Flora D'Italia

What it is

Flora D’Italia is an Italian counter inside CTR Food Works, the food hall at The CTR, the former CNN Center on Marietta Street. The hall comes from the team behind Chattahoochee Food Works and New York’s Gansevoort Market, and it pairs a run of chef-driven kitchens with communal seating and a big full-service bar. Flora also has stalls at Chattahoochee Food Works on the Westside and Vela Park Food Works in Decatur, so some Atlantans may already know it.

Food and drink

The menu sticks to familiar Italian cooking done with care: handmade pastas, Neapolitan-style pizzas, sandwiches and salads, plus comfort plates like eggplant Parmesan and chicken Parmesan. Plan on it for a quick lunch on a workday or a no-fuss dinner with the family.

Catering

Flora puts together Italian catering packages for office lunches, family gatherings and bigger celebrations, and offers custom menus for large events. Details are on the Flora D’Italia website.

Before you go

The CTR directory lists Flora’s hours as 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Sunday through Wednesday, and 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Thursday through Saturday. You’ll find it in Suite 264A of the building at 190 Marietta Street NW.
