Within the first 2 minutes of speaking with Rosa, I knew she was someone very special. The kind and caring personality she possesses is becoming very difficult to find these days and is truly priceless in my mind. I had spent 3 days searching for a florist that could create a funeral floral piece that included the Blessed Mother. Rosa was the 8th florist I reached out to. We had unexpectedly lost a very dear, young cousin and my mom had very specific requests for the floral arrangement from our family. Within moments of speaking with Rosa, I felt like I knew her for 20 years... She asked about my cousin and what it was that mom was searching for. When I arrived at the funeral home yesterday, I walked into the room and just froze. There were 5 - 8 large sprays that I've always seen at funerals. Very pretty but not very original. Then my eyes captured the Pink Gratto. The Blessed Mother is standing in the center of a pink halo blanketed in pink and white flowers...all types of flowers! My cousins favorite color was pink. Huge roses, small roses, carnations, daisies and draped from the bottom, the softest waterfall of fresh ivy you've ever seen! Absolutely jaw dropping! There were people all around it passing around the card to see who sent it. People I didn't even know approached us to asked where our piece came from? Rosa, you are truly an artist!!! I know floral pieces sent to a funeral home is not a competition and I don't mean it to sound that way. Rather, I hope to portray Rosa's ability to grasp the hopes and desires of her customers and help them receive what they ask for as close as possible. My mother said the floral piece is pure perfection, Rosa! Thank you, Rosa, for your kindness, understanding and talent in the amazing work you do...bless you!! Laura P

We love Designs by Rosa! I work in Human Resources for a company with over 850 employees and we were looking for a good florist that would help us with our needs. I found Rosa through Google and we have been using her for the past two years. We couldn't be happier! Everyone that works at Designs by Rosa is so friendly and helpful! It just takes a two minute phone call and we know that everything is going to be taken care of. They do amazing arrangements and also fantastic fruit baskets. We are so pleased with everything that they do and the great experience that we have everytime we call. Thank you Designs by Rosa!!

Designs by Rosa is hands down one of the best florists in the city. She did our wedding flowers and we were floored by how beautiful they came out. Rosa took our vision and executed it perfectly. She has been in the business for a long time and knows exactly what she’s doing. She is not only incredibly talented, but a lovely person as well. She pays attention to detail and clearly loves what she does. She was such a joy to work with and we can’t thank Rosa enough for making our day so special.

This little gem is perfect for your floral needs. I asked for two bouquets for a friend’s birthday, one for my roommate to give and the other for me to give, and in working with two small budgets, a kind person named Frank was able to arrange gorgeous bouquets. Frank is an incredible asset to this team, and because of his touch, I highly recommend this spot for grabbing flowers for a friend, family member, or your partner. Awesome spot with incredibly cool staff.

My daughter lives in Michigan. A Chicago friend recommended Designs by Rosa. She sent me a beautiful arrangement of fragrant pink lilies. All the buds were completely closed when the arrangement was delivered 2 days before Mother’s Day. They began to open on Mother’s Day. Along with wonderful flowers the filler greenery is also fresh and lovely. I highly recommend this small floral gem in the heart of Chicago’s downtown.

I hate looking through pictures of flowers that all look the same to me..I called here and just asked them to 'send something nice' to my girlfriend. That strategy has been hit or miss for me in the past at other florists, but these guys nailed it! The flowers look great and the my girlfriend said the arrangement and color choice was perfect. Thanks a lot guys! Will shop here again.

Had to make a late order for a special occasion, but they were able to be more than accommodating and put together a beautiful custom piece for me. Not only that, they were able to deliver it same day after hours. They really went above and beyond and just solidified why I keep coming back every year for every special occasion. Thank you!

Great customer service! I ordered flowers for my daughter at Northwestern, and they delivered a smaller arrangement than I had ordered. I sent an email about this, and Rosa immediately responded with an apology and offered to send another arrangement right away. The flowers are beautiful, and my daughter was thrilled!

Incredible customer service with friendly folks who delivered exactly what we wanted! We mad a big ask within a short time frame and were met with positivity, professionalism, and a polished product. Would absolutely recommend them in an instant to anyone looking for floral needs, planned or spontaneous!

My father was away for business & was staying at the Palmer House. I am a florist and he stopped in this shop and asked to take a picture of some flowers and the gentleman refused. Don't be a jerk guy, have some flower love... BUT I'm in Jersey if you want to settle this.

Great service, Rosa is a sweetheart and always takes care of me. Simply tell her the Mrs favorite flowers and what your spending limit is and she takes care of the rest. Also rates are fair, especially for being downtown. $60 gets an extremely nice bouquet in my opinion.

I ordered flowers for my mothers Birthday. They were delivered the next day on her birthday around 8 am in the morning. She said the flowers were the most beautiful flowers she has ever received and loved them very much.

I was very pleased with the service and quality I received from Design by Rosa. The attentiveness to my request, the follow up was appreciated and the floral arrangement was exquisite. They are my “go to” florist .......

I ordered some flowers to have delivered and I was really Happy with the order! The flowers are lovely and I received them right away! The flowers are super fresh and pretty! Will definitely order from here again!

Gentleman on the phone was patient and friendly, and the flowers for the money were GORGEOUS! My daughter sent me a photo and I was surprised by how pretty they were, and what nice flowers they used.

Granted I went *on* Valentine's Day to get flowers but $95 for an arrangement of 12 roses & a vase is absolutely ridiculous! Gouging customers "just because" it's the day of is shameful!

I walked in today and was helped immediately by a very nice lady. I was able to get my wife a bouquet for our anniversary and I am sure she will be thrilled. Thanks again for the help!

I purchased a rose and was told they had just gotten them today. When i got home, I really couldn’t smell the fragrance, not sure why the freshest rose doesn’t smell like rose anymore.

I had an arrangement made as a gift to a friend. They said it was the nicest arrangement they’d seen in the city :) such a friendly person to work with as well.

Frank Guerriel is the owner and he and his delivery driver phillip are extremely disrespectful and do not know what customer service is.

HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT. The flowers were for my daughter's birthday. There were more green leaves stuffed in the vase than actual flowers.

I ordered flowers for a wedding rehearsal dinner over the phone. I was so happy with the flowers. They were perfect in every way.

Ross's Designs has been my go-to florist for over 6 yrs, providing excellent arrangements for flowers and balloons.

Great flower shop in downtown Chicago. Located next to public transportation, very convenient.

Amazing flowers... I love how they turned out. Sent out same day to nearby location.

My wife loves the flowers from here I've been coming here for years.

Rosa was awesome for a last minute bouquet on a Friday!

Perfect amazing arrangement, Thank you!
