DJ Flaco Brings Two Decades of Turntable Experience to Downtown Tampa’s Roaring Twenties-Inspired Restaurant The Dan for an Afternoon of Soulful Music, Gulf Coast Fare, and Handcrafted Cocktails
TAMPA, Fla. (September 14th, 2026) – Hotel Flor is bringing the vibes to its signature on-site restaurant, The Dan, with R&B Saturday, a special afternoon music event celebrating classic and contemporary R&B. The event is set to take place Saturday, September 26th, from 1:00 PM to 5:00 PM.
Set inside the historic Hotel Flor in the heart of downtown Tampa, The Dan is a Roaring Twenties-inspired restaurant and speakeasy that pairs Gulf Coast cuisine with a sophisticated, jazz-age ambiance. The restaurant’s newly updated menu spans shareable starters, salads, and hearty mains, including guest favorites like the Gochujang Brussels Sprouts, the Pasta Catalina, and the classic Dan Burger. On the drink side, The Dan’s cocktail program leans into its old-world roots with historically inspired creations such as the Champagne Cocktail, made with champagne, cognac, bitters, and cotton candy, and the Bourbon Street Blues, a blend of bourbon, amaro, and Carpano Antica. The Dan’s full menu can be found on their website.
For R&B Saturday, that same atmosphere gets a soulful update. Guests can expect an afternoon of smooth music, great food, and good company as The Dan transforms into the go-to spot for the weekend, with the restaurant’s signature dishes and cocktails on hand to round out the experience.
Setting the tone behind the turntables is DJ Flaco (Marco Sequeira), a Tampa Bay nightlife staple with 20 years of professional DJ experience. Known for his open-format style, DJ Flaco effortlessly moves between genres, blending Latin rhythms and world sounds with hip-hop, top 40, classics, dancehall, mash-ups, and house music. His versatile sets have made him a go-to name in the local club scene, and he brings that same energy and precision to Hotel Flor’s newest signature event.
R&B Saturday adds a soulful new note to The Dan’s live music programming, which is already known for jazz sets and rhythm-driven nights. With DJ Flaco’s genre-spanning sound, The Dan’s revamped menu, and its handcrafted, era-inspired cocktails all coming together in one afternoon, R&B Saturday delivers the full experience Hotel Flor is known for in one of Tampa Bay’s most distinctive settings.
Reservations for The Dan can be made by calling (813) 318-9719 or directly on OpenTable. For more information about upcoming events, please visit Hotel Flor’s website.
