The best restaurant in town. Why you might ask do I think that? The food is always fresh, flavorful, quality. Vincent is an extremely talented, driven, and creative chef.My wife and I dined there this evening(Valentine's day) we thankfully had reservations as it was fully booked. The mixed drinks were perfectly balanced, Amy's drop and a strawberry mule. We had the grilled octopus appetizer, it was a baby octopus, flavor packed, and tender. We had the steak trio, and the ostrich steak. We had a house salad with champagne vinaigrette, and the French onion soup. This is the best French onion soup you are going to find period.The trio were 3 perfectly seasoned, and seared steaks: flank, teres major, and hanger. We had the garlic mashed potatoes and asparagus with bearnaise, I cannot express how delicious the potatoes were.The ostrich steak was a unique option I was excited to try. It has a very light game flavor with the texture and color of a tender beef steak. It came with broccolini and pomme pave, the potatoes were sliced thin, stacked, and baked with butter mildly similar to au gratin.A meal here will set your standard for eating out very high, you would be hard pressed to find another that could match it, bravo.

If your looking for a higher end steakhouse in the Mcleod, Carver, Meeker county area, this place is it! Amazing service, atmosphere, and the steak was cooked perfectly! Everything is very clean and new, and the menu is a perfect curation of different proteins and fresh vegetables. Definitely will be coming back, 10/10!Kid-friendliness: I would say this is more of an adult atmosphere, and consider taking the kids somewhere else.

If I could give 6 stars, I would. This is exactly what a town like Hutchinson needs. It's a cozy, inviting atmosphere with absolutely outstanding food. The menu is crafted with creativity and passion...not a deep fryer or microwave. After recently moving here we are so grateful Flank is here, it makes us feel like we're living in Europe again--slow paced, relaxing experience with delicious food and wine! Na zdravi.

We eat at Flank regularly and have never had a bad meal, drink, or service! The food is made with love, worth every penny, and the environment is great for a date night, dinner with friends, celebration with family, and everything in between! I love being able to count on this spot for a wonderful meal!
Right off the bat the scenery of this steakhouse has a classical feel with classical music playing, and a traditional, modern look. As for the service my server was very kind and made sure to refill my water frequently so the service gets a 1/1 scenery also gets a 1/1 now as for the actual food I had calamari and one of their special soups, a crab soup of sorts don't particularly remember what it was but the calamari did have a wonderful breading but with an extremely chewy meat and as for the actual sauce, it did get a 1/1 but it could have easily been better by adding citrus so the total score for the calamari was 3/3 for breading and a 0/5 for texture of the calamari and a 1/1 for presentation, but could've been better so the total score of the calamari was a 45/10 now as for the soup it had a very odd taste to it almost like it had been burnt and it also had very imbalanced flavor to it so a 1/5 on flavor and a 1/4 texture with a 0.5/1 poor presentation but there was effort so it gets 0.5 on that so total score is 2.5/10. Now as for the main course the "loaded New York strip" my immediate impression was with the presentation. It was sloppy and unorganized. As for the sides of the steak it which was seasonal pumpkin, and shrimp skewer which landed a 1/2 they were both palatable but not very tasty. As for the steak it had a 1/1 medium rare, it was nicely cooked. The sear also had a 1/1 a very beautiful outer crust. No, as for the actual taste of the steak, I was utterly disappointed. It was almost flavorless with no seasoning at all landing a 1/8 for total taste (because of nice texture) with a total score of 3/10. Now as for the crème brûlée, I was quite pleasantly surprised with the crust on this crème brûlée so it landed a 3/3 on crust now as for the custard flavor and texture, I was not pleasantly surprised the texture was of a cheap Jell-O, and the flavor tasted like a low quality whipped cream landing a 1/7. making a total score of I would not recommend this restaurant, and not only because of so bad quality food, but they were also charging a quite unreasonable, some for this quality of food. In summary, I do not recommend this establishment for any dining or activities

I am writing to express my deep disappointment regarding my experience at Flank restaurant on November 18, following a reservation for two that I had made.Upon arriving, we were met with a less-than-friendly hostess who informed us that the restaurant was out of all the advertised food. She mentioned that her boss had allegedly tried to call us three times, but we received no such calls. Furthermore, she conveyed that our reservation was the last one made.The atmosphere in the restaurant was not pleasant; a pervasive fish smell covered the entire place. I understand that unforeseen events can happen, and businesses might find themselves unprepared, but what disappointed me the most was the lack of cordiality and a proper business approach in handling the situation.The hostess appeared tired and disinterested, offering no alternatives or apologies for the inconvenience caused. It's disheartening when one anticipates a certain experience, only to find that the business lacks empathy for its customers. I hope this feedback serves as an opportunity for improvement.PS: Thank you for your response. I appreciate your perspective, and I understand that businesses, like individuals, can encounter unforeseen challenges. However, it's essential to share my genuine experience, as it reflects my expectations versus the actual encounter.Regarding the phone calls, I genuinely did not receive them, and I would have appreciated the opportunity to discuss alternative arrangements if the restaurant was facing difficulties. I believe a proactive approach could have alleviated the disappointment.As for the fish smell, I understand that certain themes or events might bring unique aromas. However, it contributed to an overall atmosphere that did not align with the expected dining experience.I genuinely hope that my feedback is constructive and provides insights into customer perspectives.
