    Roses and more.
    Richard B.

    I love this place. I called to order a dozen roses to be delivered to Rivoli for our anniversary. I also let the restaurant know they would be arriving. On arrival our table had the most insane arrangement of roses and lilies and not sure what else. My partner was totally impressed. Oscar totally killed it. But here's the kicker. Apparently my card was declined. (major fraud check on this card. Doesn't like phone orders) So declined card and they still delivered. I noticed the next day I had a few calls from them so I called them back and used a different card to settle up. Who does this? Who actually delivers an order when the card declines? These people do. I have to think they knew this was important and figured it would work itself out. I am extremely appreciative of this behavior and other businesses should take note. And the arrangement is the bomb. Thanks Oscar!

    Mom's birthday present

    One word simply..AMAZING!.. Thank you, Haru!! I was having a hard time deciding on what to get my mom for her Diamond 60th Birthday Celebration. My option up to that point were between some clothes or flowers. Everyone I talked to kept saying to get flowers. So I did a YELP search on florists in my area and was given a phone book of listings. On my drive down San Pablo Avenue in El Cerrito, I was still on the fence on what to get my Moms when I looked over and literally it hit my like a ton of bricks. There was Albany Florist and Gifts. The next day I thought I'd stop in and see what they had in store. I glanced at a few of the pre-made arrangements and was now having a hard time making up my mind on what kind of flowers. I was greeted by the the florist, a nice lady named Haru. She made a few suggestions and showed me a vase or two that was within my budget. After sprucing up my arrangement, just like that presto, voila... Haru had turned my floral arrangement in to the perfect present for my mom-- the gift felt right. I showed up with flowers in hand and my mom felt guilty that I had spent so much on the flowers. I didn't mention that the gift was right on track with my limited budget, and all thanks to Haru. + Great birthday gift + Budget friendly ++ spectacular flowers +++ Friendly customer service

    the beautiful flowers await their presentation

    We bought a couple of bouquets of roses to give to family members coming into SFO. The flowers, while a little pricey ($45 for a dozen long stemmed red roses, split with baby's breath and wrapping and ribbons), stood up to the long ride in the car, the wait at the airport, the handling, the drive back, and now they are opening beautifully in vases throughout the house. Only quality flower would stand up to that sort of mistreatment. We were waited on promptly and pleasantly, even though we had no idea what we wanted, or how much we wanted to spend. The owner asked if Dr. R. was persian and when he found out that he was, he wished our relatives a quick and easy trip. I would go again to this lovely shop. Thanks for the great flowers and the good wishes!

    Very pretty.

    I always go here for flower arrangements and I'm never disappointed! Great service and beautiful, creative flower arrangements,i absolutely love this florist i will never use anyone else the flowers are so fresh oscar is so talented and extremely detail oriented costumer service is wonderful too . please consider this shop for your floral needs its awesome i highly recommend this place.

    I'm so glad I found this flower shop through a Google search because I wanted to use local and not a national chain. Easy to navigate website, lots of options and lots of price points depending on what you want to pay. Once you make a selection you can add more flowers and basically get a small, medium or large bouquet. I had these sent to my niece for her birthday and they came out beautifully and were delivered right on time. Thank you for great service, would definitely recommend!

    Since the ownership was replaced this place became amazing spot. They have wo underfur arrangements and unique flowers. Apparently they also paired with 1800-flowers so you can order on line and have it delivered . I bought flowers and chocolates for my hubby for valentines and he was very happy( I wished he would have done it for me too .... Lol)

    The lei was beautiful, and I picked a random mixed flower bouquet from their stand that was so cute and colorful.

    Came in this morning and got a beautiful arrangement for a family members passing. We didn't catch…read morethe man's name, but he was very helpful, attentive, and provided great recommendations for what to include in the arrangement. The highlight of the visit was how amazing and floral it smells when you walk in.

    My best friend came here and got me an orchid for my birthday. I picked out the Golden Yellow moth…read moreorchid which had the prettiest clean golden yellow color I had ever seen on an orchid. The leaves were light green and very healthy. Most orchids here are 45 dollars. There were many orchids but most were just nicer versions of what you can find at cheaper places like Whole Foods. There were some exotic ones that looked like giant three feet tall yellow orchid trees with sprays of tiny yellow orchids. Since the moth orchid is easy to care for, I opted for the moth. Note that the orchids priced at 45 dollars don't come with pots. The orchid is displayed in a pretty pot but the plant doesn't come with it so be prepared to dish out more cash if you want a pot too. Since I have many pots at home, we just purchased the orchid. The purchase came with a tip option which is strange since it's not a service or restaurant. The florist did tuck it nicely into a box and some tissue paper. He gave us plenty of good instructions like make sure the orchid is bone dry before watering again (every 2-3 weeks). He advised a small amount of fertilizer with each watering and no fertilizer during the winter months. After a five dollar tip for his orchid tips and taxes, my unpotted orchid in a thin plastic container came to 55 dollars. I would say that this is a great place to get orchids for a seasoned orchid lover but you can definitely buy very nice ones for about one third of the price at the local supermarkets like TJ's or Whole Foods. They also carry really exotic ones you can't find at supermarkets though I don't know how hard it would be to keep them healthy. In any case, I'm already thinking about going back to check out the tree like orchid and to talk to the florist about how hard it would be to own one. Cute place for lovely orchids but a bit pricey.
