The food and service here are amazing. It's a bit noisy inside, so if you are looking for a quieter experience, I recommend outside.

We absolutely love flex mussels! My family and I have been going there for years. We went last night to celebrate our daughter‘s graduation and while the food was delicious, we were absolutely freezing the entire meal. We asked if the AC could be turned down a bit as it was blowing heavily on us. We asked multiple times and ended up having to put napkins over our shoulders to try to warm up. The table next to us was freezing as well. It wasn't even that cold outside! It really took away from the whole experience, the food got cold quickly, and it was beyond uncomfortable.

Food is very good but sound is deafening. If you go try for an outside table weather permitting.
Kris
Great food and great service as always. Oysters were fresh and delicious, Dijon mussels didn't disappoint.

We always have a lovely experience at Flex Mussels. They were able to accommodate us early for brunch, and we enjoyed the food and drinks. Plus the service was perfect! Highly recommend the lobster rolls and garden gimlet. So yummy!

Food and service here are always fantastic. Aside from the mussels, the french fries and donuts are what we come back for!!

One of my favorite restaurants in NYC. I make a point of eating here every time I'm in town and always order the mussels in Thai broth. My partner had a different one that was equally yummy! Keep on flexing!
Ellen
Love the restaurant! They took my favorite brunch item off the menu....very unhappy....the Shelly eggs Benedict! Our waiter even said that other patrons complained that it is their favorite!
Trish
The ambience was great for a restaurant in the village. The Raw oyster selection was delicious and possibly the best pairing of oysters that I have tried thus far. Service was great, the host was extremely friendly and Jonathan my server was amazing !

One of the best happy hours in the UES. All the food we had was delicious, and the service was great.
Ate here for Mother's Day dinner and it was absolutely fantastic. We had a reservation but the restaurant was busy so we had to wait maybe 20 minutes for our table. Recognizing the inconvenience, the hostess was profusely apologetic and ended up comping several items from our bill. We had the kale salad, crab guacamole, buratta salad, and parma mussels. Each dish was to die for. The buratta salad had 6 pieces of the best shrimp I've ever tasted. Highly recommend Flex to anyone looking for a unique and delicious dining experience.

This is a great restaurant with impeccable service. Mussels and oysters are unbeatable across NYC.

We've been here many times both at this location and the former location in the Village. The Thai mussels were excellent. The bouillabaisse mussels eminently forgettable and boring. Noise level was oppressive-impossible to carry on a conversation.

Happy hour oysters followed by the best mussels on the planet, Devine wine and ambience—don't sleep on this place!

Drinks, service, and food wonderful. Only complaint was that my salmon was cold when it arrived. Ate it that way because the restaurant was so crowded that I knew it would take quite some time to get it back. Drinks took a while to arrive but they were worth the wait. Puddle Jumper was excellent. Aidan, our waitress couldn't be more pleasant. She was knowledgeable about the menu and very attentive.
