Pleasantly surprised by the food! I got the Lomo Saltados and my GF got the Tallarin Saltados. Portion sizes were relatively large; my gf and I could've probably shared a main and gotten an appetizer.<br><br>Atmosphere was charming and service was fast and good. Would def eat here again.
I enjoyed my visit here! They have a very large menu with both Peruvian and Chinese cuisine. The drinks are strong and delicious. I really enjoyed the egg foo young<br><br>I came here a second time and had a great experience. I really enjoyed the Chicken Lomo. So good!
I have been here before and the space is still tight seating. The food good drinks good music ok and the service was good also. Just make sure all parties are there waiting to be seted.
Love the food and the options, your able to choose Spanish or Chinese food or both! The drinks are strong. Price for two ppl with 3 drinks and two entrées and a side was $116 which wasn’t bad since they also give you a complimentary bread, soup and salad with your meal. The service is great even when it gets packed, all the tables were full and our waiter amongst other employees always made sure we had everything we needed. Lastly this is not a fancy manhattan restaurant where you need to be dressy, you can wear anything your comfortable in which I love. Highly recommend! Will be going back
A classic old school Chinese/Latin restaurant. Not too many left in the city. Been going here about 25 years. Great food and service. Strong drinks. Outstanding lunch specials also.
Delicious food all around! The ají de gallina was fantastic, creamy, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. The maduros were absolute perfection, caramelized just right. Service was friendly and attentive, and they were so accommodating, even adding an extra person to our table last minute without any issue. A great spot for comforting Peruvian dishes and a relaxed, welcoming vibe.
I found this restaurant because I was looking for Peruvian Chicken and boy did this place exceed my expectations. This is a Chinese/Peruvian fusion so their menu is quite extensive. My family of 5 loved everything they ordered, service was friendly and timely. Would definitely come again!
I used to love this place, but then this year I developed a Gluten allergy and when I asked my server which meals are (or can be made) gluten free he had no idea. So I tried to order the safest option, a rotisserie chicken, and they said it had gluten in it. It seemed like none of the staff knew anything about the ingredients. It’s ridiculous to work in a restaurant and not know which meals are allergy friendly.
Florida De Mayo has been a staple of the community. It's one of the few still standing. It's been there more than 20+ years serving the community their Chinese Latin food. Part Peruvian and Chinese this location has something for everyone. Regardless of your preference you can not go wrong at this location or their sister location.
i usually go to the location on 86th street but this location is just as great! the food, the drinks, and the people were all so good and lovely. menu highlights were: broiled pork chops, the shrimp soup (my all time favorite), squid fried rice, and can never go wrong with some piña coladas.
I absolutely love the food at Flor de Mayo restaurant. The service was great and we received it fast. The food tasted fresh and was hot. They have a wide selection of food, and all the dishes I have tasted are delicious. It’s hard to locate parking, but I highly recommend it when in the area. It’s a must try 😀
This place is an absolute gem! The food is consistently incredible — a perfect fusion of Chinese and Latin flavors that leaves you craving more every time. The drinks are just as amazing, perfectly crafted to complement the vibrant dishes.<br><br>Yes, the wait lines can be long, but trust me, it’s completely worth it. The energy, the atmosphere, and most importantly, the quality of the food make it clear why people are willing to wait.<br><br>I’ve celebrated multiple birthday parties here, and every single time has been unforgettable. The staff always makes sure everything runs smoothly, and the experience keeps me coming back. I can’t wait for my next visit!
Good place to enjoy great food. The lomo saltado is delicious. The pork was juicy and well cooked. The staff was great until I had to wait about 15 minutes to get the check. Apart from that the experience was great.
I’ve now been to both locations over the last 5 years. Several times. It’s been 50/50 with the good/bad experiences.<br><br>I’ve given up on this hype, though. Most of the dishes are average to good, on their best days. On their off days, they can be average to poor. But, when you’re spending close to or over $50 on two dishes, it’s a dealbreaker.<br><br>Eating here is part of the experience. I have yet to do so there’s a chance it could be better than takeout? Not for me though.
