My friend's mom passed away and I went to Menlo Botanical for a flower arrangement, as I've used them before and they have amazing fresh flowers. The staff were very friendly, knowledgeable and nice. The arrangement turned out beautiful. I couldn't have be happier. I think their prices are reasonable for how beautiful their flowers are. Highly recommend read more

A small shop tucked inside the beautiful gardens of Allied Arts Guild building. The lady was really nice and my review reflects the value of the flowers I got. You can be a judge yourself by looking at photo, but this bunch of flowers ( four ranunculus, several small white calla lilies and filler flowers/leaves) which I picked out myself , wrapped in brown paper, and did not come w flower food was a total of $62 out the door. I expected to pay more because it's a boutique shop but three times normal price is a very steep premium. read more

Menlo Botanica - Ranunculus, calla lilies , several stems of filler flowers - Florists Near Me - Menlo Park, California

Menlo Botanica is this gem of an area of Menlo Park - the people, service, and the flowers were exceptional. I gave them a call, and Monica over the phone was cordial, patient, and accommodating. I asked for certain flowers for my bouquet - specifically peonies, carnations, tulips, and stargazer lilies - and they executed it flawlessly. For me, this was a special occasion - an early vday bouquet! And it is a game changer to get your bouquet earlier than the day of; Monica and others made a DREAM bouquet for my girlfriend, and I was very very happy with the results - beautiful, and accurate to the reference picture I'd also sent! Will definitely be coming back for my next big bouquet. Thanks, Menlo Botanica! read more

Not a great value for the cost. I spent $136 on a bouquet that wasn't any nicer than something I could've gotten for $20 at the grocery store. The good news is they were able to help with my request for a cat-safe bouquet but I had to look up a list online of the cat-safe flowers while it was on the call. When I called to place the order the lady on the phone had to put me on hold three or four times. In the end, the bouquet only included the orange roses we'd discussed but did not include any snapdragons or orchids. Overall, disappointing. read more

This review is LONG overdue. I will try to keep it short! Five years ago, my mom and I happened upon Menlo Botanica the day before my wedding. We had recently fired our wedding florist because she kept increasing her prices on us and had resigned ourselves to having a wedding without flowers. My mom, always the optimist, told me to do a quick google search for proximity. She was familiar with the artist center where the florist is located, so we decided to give it a try. The owner and her florists were SO kind. They listened to our story and immediately set out to make me a wedding bouquet, boutonnière for my husband, and a small flower clip for my hair. Then, they asked me for a list of all the flowers I had dreamt of having at my wedding. Even though our previous florist had told us that the flowers were too hard to find, Menlo Botanica said it was "no problem." They even chopped up a recently delivered plant for us because I had my heart set on hellebores. The owner told us to go have lunch and that when we returned, everything would be ready. Just thinking about how they took care of us that day and on the day of the reception makes me cry. My mom and I ended up with everything we had dreamt of (and more). She passed away a few years ago, but til the day she died, she reminisced about my wedding day and how perfectly beautiful the flowers were. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for creating a memory that will never ever fade. read more

I recently had a coworker ask me where I had ordered a beautiful floral arrangement for another coworker. The answer of course was Menlo Botanica which made me realize I should write a review of this lovely florist. They are my go to when I need to send flowers. I don't even consider other shops because the arrangements from Menlo Botanica are consistently outstanding. Their designs are beautiful and modern without being pretentious. The flowers are high quality and fresh. A few times I've sent more specific notes for arrangements and they always been able to accommodate my requests. Lastly, the people who work here are so warm and friendly. I've called in a few times and it's always a delight talking to whomever is manning the phones. Menlo Botanica really is just the best! read more

Wonderful service and communication. Easy to choose online and order. Beautiful selection and reasonable price with delivery.

I wanted an arrangement for a friend after surgery but needed to make sure that none of the contents were toxic to dogs/cats. I ordered the arrangement that seemed to have mostly flowers that were non-toxic and added a note to the order to ask that they only include non-toxic items, including a list of flowers. They made a gorgeous bouquet and told me that they throughly checked all the greenery they had included as well. Beautiful, classy blooms and wonderful service! Well worth the costs compared to other florists as the blooms are such high quality and that arrangements exquisite. read more

Can I just preface by saying Lisa and her team are angels! I had a engagement shoot I was gearing up to do, and the florist I generally go to was closed. Lisa and her team, mind you- 10 minutes before closing we're willing to help me! NOT ONLY was the staff beyond helpful and friendly, they were accommodating to what I was wanting and had described over the phone my vision and they definitely didn't disappoint. The bouquet was absolutely perfect! It was classy, boho, vintage perfection. There are not enough words to describe this beautiful pieced art! I'm so impressed by their staff, their friendliness and willing to help last minute that they have a customer for life. Truly. Best florist hands down. read more

As well as a review for the PERFECT flower shop, this is a thank you for the most warm and personable floral customer service I've found in our area. I have ordered several arrangements here and each time my friends have contacted me to enthuse about the gorgeous flowers they received! As well, they have always mentioned how very nice the delivery person is. To me it is worth the cost to give a gift of flowers that are fresh, abundant and arranged creatively and MB scores top notch That said, trust in a floral vendor is huge for me. Based on the really wonderful experiences I've had with Menlo Botanica, I trust them to deliver exactly what I intend for the ones I send flowers to. They've never failed me. Lastly, when I have phoned in my orders, the lovely woman who has taken my orders has left me smiling. Apologies for not having her name, but thanks to her for her kindness and grace and as well, thanks to the delivery person who has treated my friend with the same grace and kindness. read more

Simply, go nowhere else. Special occasion or weekly flowers, the quality of arrangements and freshness of the flowers is amazing.

Lisa and her team did the Flowers for my Wedding October 2020 (during the pandemic) and they were PERFECT!! I honestly wouldn't change anything about the flowers and they really made the wedding kicked up a notch. We only had 20 people, but I last minute changed to a bigger Garden Court venue and Lisa really helped me make it happen! She came to the venue numerous times and constantly helped me make flower choices. She is very efficient and organized. The flowers were beautiful and fresh and my bouquet was amazing! I came into it not really caring about the flowers, as long as my wedding dress was perfect, but Lisa really showed me how the flowers are important to a Wedding. I was not disappointed. My bouquet even lasted throughout the whole wedding, car ride to the beach, and back! The flowers seriously make the pictures bloom, no pun intended. Lisa was great to work with and I could not have picked a better Florist for my Wedding. read more

I value floral art and the beauty of it. Therefore, at every chance I have, I visit flower shops and nurseries. My girlfriends and I stumble upon Menlo Botanica because of the brunch we had at Wisteria Cafe located in the same artsy historical complex. Small shop but full of pretty flowers, delicious smells and an owner very chatting answering all our questions related to the names of flowers, characteristics about varieties we had never seen (like a browish orange rose, pretty unique) and how to take care of certain flowers. The exterior of the shop is very attractive, good job in the decor, so you want to enter in the store (which is pretty small and is where they prepare the bouquets and floral arrangements they ship). Very fresh and great smells. read more

We ordered a custom bouquet to show our support for a friend and the team at Menlo Botanica / Urban Botanica did an amazing job at putting together a beautiful and unique arrangement. Our friend was very moved by the gesture! The flowers were fresh and fragrant; and Lisa and her team were so amazing and communicative through out the process. We were able to order flowers for next-day pick-up! I will definitely be ordered from them again. Best experience with a local florist that I've ever had! read more

Very nice job!! My dear friend started a new job at Google and was celebrating a big birthday on the other side of the country. I wanted to brighten her day with a beautiful bouquet and called Menlo Botanica after seeing the reviews and beautiful work. My whole experience was top notch- customer service was great (Thanks Marcie), delivered on time and most importantly, the flowers were lush and lovely!

Things are brightening up in Menlo with this very quaint but service-oriented flower shop. I wanted to support a local shop vs the large flower stores, and found them on Yelp (of course!!!) NOTE: they are located immediately INSIDE of Allied Arts. Just park in the lot on the grounds. An employee was able to put together a gorgeous bouquet for my significant other on our anniversary, and they had just the right collection of hard to find flowers and accompaniments to make the Mrs. happy. They may not carry some of the very common items that you would find in a normal FTD-style shop, like Baby's Breath, as I was told their regular customers have specifically asked them to NOT carry, in order to maintain their exclusivity. But what they do carry is outstanding, and their service and attention to detail is great. Of course, they're not cheap, but really, when are great flowers ever cheap? These folks do a great job! read more

Outstanding! Beautiful arrangements for our party. The flowers were gorgeous. Highly recommend.

Lisa is an exceptional human being! I came here 2 years ago for a Mother's Day arrangement and my mom loved it so much that I wanted to get my mom the same arrangement for this year. When I was placing a arrangement for Mother's Day, I emailed the boutique and Lisa was quick to respond and accommodate to my requests. The arrangement that they replicated from two years ago was actually a lot nicer and fuller than before. I was so great full and my mom loved it too. I had the flowers delivered to the restaurant the day of Mother's Day evening so that my mom will be welcomed by something warm and familiar on our dinner table. read more

I'm writing this review with utter disappointment. A friend/client of mine recently took on a new role and in celebration I ordered a small bouquet of flowers. Both of us being aesthetically driven Urban was a no brainer. I made a few changes to an arrangement I saw online and off we went, super easy and kind in the process. A separate friend working at the same company excitedly (and I believe with the image I posted very concerned) sent me images of the arrangement. Indeed beautiful, although it wasn't designed to the changes we'd agreed to. Not a big deal. What was a VERY VERY big deal was the note attached to the back of the cards envelope. I've attached here so that it can be seen. "Hello From Urban Botanica. We gave you a free upgrade to a medium! Enjoy!" So they've outted me that I only ordered a small (mind you this was still a CLIENT), and they used MY dollars to piggy back on and advertise their generous action to a potential new client. Tacky is an understatement. Unprofessional is an understatement. They ruined the gesture and potentially harmed my perception with someone I care about on top of it. Unethical would be more appropriate. I called and they refunded me, which I appreciated, and did so immediately. However, I never heard from the owner which I'd requested. That says it all to me. Makes you wonder how many other people this has been done to. I'm sharing this because I feel that everyone should be aware of their practices. Enter at your own risk. read more

I'm impressed by how Menlo Botanica handled my order to send flowers to a friend who's mother had died. (I live in another city, and found Menlo Botanica here on Yelp!) Lisa gave me her full attention on the phone when I described the particular circumstances, and she carefully described various options and prices. Her kindness and attention were outstanding. The flower arrangement was gorgeous; my friend loved it and texted that it "made me feel loved." That's exactly what I had hoped to do. read more
