Flor De Mayo - New York

Very popular eatery on the UWS. Billed as Chinese-Peruvian, but more Peruvian than Chinese. Everything we ate was delicious.

Trendy spot, long wait to get in on the day I went. Food was good I had a party of eight so we all ordered something different. Spanish menu and Latin food good mix. Portion size was good no one finished all there food. Lost a star due to noise and cramped up spaces small aisles to walk and you barely have elbow room. More suited for friends and family not a date night. Married normal date nights yes not the special ones. ?

Good food, good vibes! As a vegetarian I wasnt sure they would have something for me. They had Lomo Tofu. The tofu was bland as is expected from most restaurants. They just don't take the time to make it tasty. My husband thoroughly enjoyed his lomo saltada steak. Pina colada had the right amount of alcohol to give you a light buzz. Food came fairly quickly. Bathroom had no hand soap. Most items cost close to$20 so expect to spend between $40 and $50 per person for a meal and drink. Appetizer not included in that price.

I am Peruvian. This is good ?comida casera?. I enjoyed the Lomo Saltado the pollo a la brasa with plantains (pictured). Latin comfort food. Portions are large!! Good for sharing. I don?t recommend the ceviche mixto ?it?s a far cry from the classic Peruvian ceviche mixto. Not enough lime, and the onions were cut way too thick, fish used for the ceviche was just ok. Was disappointed in that dish. But the hot plates are good! I?d come back for more chicken to try the chifa!

Food is rather good and inexpensive, portions are large and service is good and fast. Appetizer papas arequipena was interesting and tasty. While the tallarin verde with carne salteado was great, kung pao was mediocre at best, which is why this is a 4 star review.
