Best Margarita pizza. We had a nice family dinner here on a Monday night. They accommodated splitting the kids plates. The Goat and Berry Salad was so good we wanted the dressing recipe.

The view is awesome. Unfortunately, the rest was ok at best. The kicker was a 23% service charge for a party of 6 😅.

We held our engagement party here in the LayLow speak easy and it was phenomenal!!! We chose flamingo deck because of the tiramisu martini (which is my favorite, so naturally we had a tower of them for the party) and the yummy food. I didn’t get a pic of the pizza but they were divine. They NAILED it. Mercedes and Sierra were communicative, involved, so cute & so kind. They personalized everything and were so helpful with set up, take down, and coordination before & during. We couldn’t recommend this enough for an event!!

Definitely skip this place. It consistently disappoints. We came here on the 4th of July. It wasn’t busy at all and they were serving drinks in plastic cups. It felt absurd to be served an $18 drink in a plastic cup. There’s also a faint sewerage smell in the whole place. I’ve given this place so many chances but I’ll never come back again. The margarita was nearly undrinkable.

The Flamingo Deck – Great food, but disappointing experience with inconsistent policy enforcement

We visited The Flamingo Deck last night and had a generally good time. The food was flavorful and the atmosphere was vibrant and fun — it’s clearly a spot where people go to enjoy themselves.

That said, I want to share something important that impacted our experience. We were the only table that included people of color in our area, and we were also the only table that was asked to provide a credit card for pre-authorization before ordering. At first, we assumed this was standard, but after observing other tables nearby — including both smaller and larger parties — it became clear that this policy wasn’t being applied consistently.

We respectfully asked our server and then the manager about it. The manager explained that this is the restaurant’s policy, which I understand and don’t necessarily have an issue with if it’s applied evenly. Unfortunately, it wasn’t. We directly asked two other tables — both all-white parties — and neither was asked to pre-authorize their tab. That made it feel like we were being singled out based on race, whether intentional or not.

To the manager’s credit, he was open to the conversation and receptive to hearing our concerns. I appreciate that, and I hope it leads to real reflection and policy review. A policy that only gets enforced selectively — especially along racial lines — is not a policy, it’s a problem.

Food was great. Service otherwise was fine. But equity in treatment matters just as much as ambiance, and I hope this feedback contributes to a better experience for everyone moving forward.

I was having a great time until a Karen server came up and demanded that I leave with my service animal. She told me that my dog was not safe etc etc when my dog was chilling having a great time. She was not able to control her emotions and became irate even though I was respecting her request to leave. Unacceptable service and a huge turn off. Didn’t catch her name but she was older and had black hair. Very opinionated and clearly not in tune with animals. Ruined my evening and will likely not be coming back.

Super helpful staff. Food was delicious and good size portions. Was working on a job next door to them and they went out of their way to deliver it to me without me asking.
