Florence Supper Club Opens on South Pearl Street: A Restaurant Anchoring Place and Purpose
There are restaurants. And then there are restaurants that make a street feel like a destination, as if they have been there all along. Florence Supper Club is the latter.
In December 2025, the team behind O’Dell’s Bagel opened their Italian-American supper club at 375 South Pearl Street in West Wash Park, taking over the space previously home to the longtime neighborhood staple Finley’s Pub (RIP), and giving it new life while preserving its street-level presence.
This is not a themed concept. It’s a personal one.
Named for co-owner Paul Lysek’s grandmother, Florence draws inspiration from the kind of Italian-American dining rooms that feel both nostalgic and timeless — places where the lighting is warm, the bar is always humming, and the food is meant to be shared. Handmade pastas, red-sauce classics, dry-aged steaks, and a cocktail program that feels intentional without trying too hard. The result is a dining room that feels like it has always belonged on South Pearl.
That’s what makes this opening notable from a real estate perspective.
This stretch of South Pearl Street, just south of Alameda, is central and highly accessible, though distinct from the restaurant-dense core of Old South Pearl. It is best known for longtime neighborhood anchors like Candlelight Tavern and the Royal Crest headquarters across the street. The corridor is surrounded by major thoroughfares, including Logan, Broadway, University, and I-25, making it easy to reach while remaining firmly neighborhood-oriented.
It is a street built for locals. The kind of place where tenants don’t just survive — they build loyalty.
Florence Supper Club fits seamlessly into that ecosystem. It respects the scale of the street, activates the sidewalk, and creates a reason to stay for another drink, another plate, another conversation. From an asset standpoint, this is the kind of tenancy that strengthens an entire block. It creates energy, drives foot traffic, increases dwell time, and supports neighboring operators.
This is what placemaking actually looks like.
For retail owners and investors, Florence is a reminder that well-located, walkable retail continues to hold long-term value when the concept is right and the environment is respected. I represented the landlord in this transaction and wish to extend my congratulations and gratitude to all parties involved.
For those watching this stretch of South Pearl, the adjacent space at 373 South Pearl Street is available for lease and ready for a new tenant to build on the momentum now in place.
