How Florez Bar & Grill Expanded Their Seating Capacity with Goodwin-Cole
A cost-effective, no permit needed solution for year-round outdoor dining.
Challenges Faced by Florez Bar & Grill
- Limited Outdoor Seating: The restaurant originally had no dedicated outdoor dining area, limiting its capacity during peak hours.
- Expansion Constraints: Management needed to increase seating without costly construction projects or lengthy permit approvals.
- All-Season Use: Florez wanted an outdoor space that could serve customers in every season – from hot summers to rainy winters – ensuring comfort year-round.
Project Overview: The Goodwin-Cole Solution
Goodwin-Cole stepped in with a creative, turn-key approach. They designed and installed a custom “Canopy, enclosed with Roll-up Walls” over a section of Florez Bar & Grill’s patio. This non-permanent structure was put up quickly and required no building permits – a huge relief for the owners.
The enclosure features clear, roll-up vinyl walls that can be easily lowered or raised, converting the patio from open-air to fully enclosed in minutes. This solution was implemented at a fraction of the cost and time of a brick-and-mortar expansion, allowing Florez to continue serving customers with minimal disruption.
Key Benefits

The canopy enclosure added roughly one-third more tables to the restaurant, significantly boosting potential revenue by accommodating more guests.
