Got a date coming up? Then, Flour House is the place to go. Located centrally on Higuera Street, Flour House brings traditional Italian cuisine to life in its locally-owned kitchen.

Dinner at Flour House is a great choice for date night, as their unique menu and warm atmosphere will curate an experience that will transport you to the streets of Italy. The modern design and low lighting of the restaurant paired with the charming outdoor patio area gives Flour House a relaxed, romantic glow that is perfect for date night.

Flour House offers a wide range of carefully crafted homemade pizzas and pasta, as the menu at Flour House is constantly changing and evolving to reflect the different flavors and traditions found throughout Italy.

The kitchen at Flour House also specializes in the unique art of “Pizza Napoletana,” a special method of Naples-style pizza-making. The “Pizza Napoletana” served at Flour House is wood-fired in a custom-made brick oven imported from Italy and served uncut to preserve the soft center of the delicious dish.

If you can’t decide on just one flavor, try visiting on “Meter Monday,” where you can order a meter-long pizza split into six distinctive flavors. The menu at Flour House also includes a wide range of signature cocktails and imported Italian wines that are sure to perfectly complement your meal.

Flour House is located right in the center of downtown San Luis Obispo at 690 Higuera St. and is open from 4-9 p.m. Sundays, Mondays and Wednesdays, and from 4-9:30 p.m. Thursday through Saturday.
