We stopped for an early dinner at Flor De Mayo yesterday, and I was pleasantly surprised--I wasn't expecting Chinese-Peruvian cuisine. The restaurant is very clean, though it has little to no ambience. The portions, however, were generous and the food was tasty. We ordered the pork fried rice, which was excellent. The ropa vieja leaned on the sweeter side, which I guess is how it's traditionally prepared in Peru. The special egg foo young was another hit--loaded with just about everything but the kitchen sink. There were three of us at the table, and even after eating plenty, we still left with a ton of leftovers. Definitely good value for the price. read more

I came here a while back and I love Flor de Mayo but this is my first time at this location. We came here for a late dinner and it was amazing. The food was perfect and the service was exceptional. We went late and they were very nice and did not rush us out. I ordered my usual which is chicken chunks with bone and special fried rice, chicarron de pollo con hueso y arroz frito. The place is nice and had good lighting. It was clean and everything was organized. read more

Flor de Mayo - Fried Crispy Chicken Chunks - Peruvian Near Me - New York, New York

I have been a fan of Flor de mayo & have been going to their two other locations for years. Excited to try this new addition. The place is more spacious, the decor is okey & the waitress is attentive. No crowd lunch time on a weekday so I dont feel rush unlike the original Flor de Mayo. Looks like they really trying to replicate the original taste. By the looks they almost did, but the taste is kind of dissapointing especially if you are expecting exactly thesame quality & deliciousness. All considering, ill probably still consider this restaurant if im around Washington Heights. read more

Flor de Mayo has an intimate and genuine mood and truly, this makes for a lovely dining experience. From the attentiveness and patience of their staff, to their delicious food, vast menu, and perfect pricing. If you have never experienced a Chino-Latino dining scene for yourself, Flor de Mayo is absolutely the perfect place to start! I came here with a friend and we ordered 3 items form their lunch special menu: 1. Their pulled beef with sweet plantain 2. House special fried rice 3. Pork chops with tostones (We also each ordered a drink... non-alcoholic). Our bill totaled $63 for all of this food and we had so much food left over. I highly recommend this restaurant to some local foodies and I can guarantee that you will have an equally amazing dining experience! P.s they give you complementary bread with your meal. I have yet to be failed by a restaurant that does this :) read more

Flor de Mayo is an UWS staple and I am excited to have them in my neighborhood. I've been to the Washington Heights location twice (the last time with a group of 10) and have ordered takeout once. The staff gives me the impression that they are really trying to match the quality and taste of the other established locations, which is why I am giving them 5 stars at this time. I've tasted their fried yuca, pork chops, fried boneless chicken, baked chicken, tostones, sweet plantains, house special rice and chorizo appetizer. No complaints whatsoever. Portions are out of this world huge. The lunch specials are worthwhile if you want to try them out and save some bucks. As of December 2022, they did not have a full liquor license but had a good selection of beers and sangria. read more

This place is new in the neighborhood and is following its other famous locations. Unfortunately this place hasnt lived up to the standards of the other locations. The shrimp lacked flavor what so ever and was a little on the bitter side due to the garlic being undercooked. The lomo and fried rice was just ok. A little pricey and I probably wouldnt come back to this location. I will continue on taking the trip to the other locations. read more

Flor de Mayo delivered on the promises made by their menu. Appetizing meals and friendly attendants. They prioritize fresh components, proper seasoning, and correct cooking. The team made us feel welcome throughout our meal. Good performance! I'll visit again! read more

This restaurant was SMELLY like a porta potty as soon as you walk in. Not to mention they placed me at a table across from the bathroom! They immediately brought me water and bread. But I left soon after because I couldn't take the stench especially while eating that's disgusting! read more

The food was good but the restaurant was too closed in and the waiters took forever to take our order and especially bring us our check.

Flor de Mayo - Fried Pork Chops with pork fried rice - Peruvian Near Me - New York, New York

I was hyped when I learned Flor De Mayo opened another location within delivery distance from me. My go-to was the one on 101st and Broadway and the food was consistently exceptional. I've been a huge fan since the first day I've tried their food. My usuals were always the pollo alla brasa and lomo saltado, so I continued the tradition and ordered those dishes for the first time since they've opened. My partner and I were pretty disappointed in the lack of flavor in both the pollo and lomo. We took a 2 month break and ordered it again, and this time, it was fantastic, up to the standards of their Harlem location. Today, we ordered the same dishes again, and while the lomo was good, the pollo was bland. It seems like one day they've got it and the next day they don't. It sucks that in order for me to get the real Flor De Mayo quality, I'll have to trek downtown and pick up from Harlem. Not sure what's causing the hit-or-miss-ness but hopefully it can be resolved soon. read more

I've been going to Flor De Mayo for over 15 years, frequented the broadway & Amsterdam location many times. Finally got to try the Washington heights location. The inside is nice, workers were friendly & courteous. The service for take out and dine in were a bit slow. The food was good, same as the other locations. But the price seems to have gone up. Ample seating is available and there are a few tv's by the bar. read more

Always a 10 for me! They never ever disappoint. It's my go to for any date night, girls night, to-go spot. I just love them. The shrimp Lomo is my favorite. I get the steak Lomo to switch it up from time to time. The drinks ALWAYS HIT! If you haven't been here, are you really eating? Lol read more

Flor de Mayo - Shrimp Lomo Fried Rice Combo - Peruvian Near Me - New York, New York

We ordered two combos with a side of yuca fries which was a good amount of food and had leftovers! The ropa vieja was our favorite dish, we were a bit confused by the cold lettuce and slice tomato as a side though. The servers were very kind and attentive as we were one of only two tables occupied in the front of the house. read more

Flor de Mayo - Ropa Vieja Fried Rice Combo, Yuca Fries, Garlic Shrimp Combo - Peruvian Near Me - New York, New York

BEWARE SCAMMY SCUMMY RESTAURANT My partner and I are on a quest to find the best Peruvian restaurants in the city. We've experienced both great and disappointing ones, but none as dreadful as this place. Our visit felt like a scene straight out of Gordon Ramsay's "Kitchen Nightmares." We entered with high hopes but found no host at the entrance. Eventually, we found a seat. Unfortunately, the only two bathrooms face half the restaurant, ensuring a constant unpleasant aroma of bathroom during our meal. Despite this, we decided to focus on the food. We ordered fish ceviche, lomo saltado, half a chicken with fries, two sodas, and a margarita. The ceviche was a scam: 80% onion and 20% fish, for what was already a small fistful portion that lasted for 5 bites. Bland and utterly disappointing. When we asked for diet sodas, coke or pepsi, they had none--a rarity in any restaurant but something we decided to ignore again. Our main courses arrived. The lomo saltado was dry and flavorless, while the chicken was overly peppered and lacked the green sauce typical of Peruvian cuisine. They didn't even have mayonnaise either, another Peruvian staple and something that I have never seen any restaurant, not just Peruvian, lack. It felt like we were accommodating them rather than being served. The worst part was the margarita. Other than the color, there was no hint of mango taste and instead the taste of the cheapest alcohol ever that it wouldn't surprise me if I was told it was rubbing alcohol.  The menu listed the drink at $14, but the bill showed $18. They added $2 for mango flavor and another $2 because it was frozen--charges that are nowhere listed on the menu or communicated. I had never asked for a frozen margarita  or even given the option of frozen or on the rocks and instead had explicitly pointed at the $14 margarita on the menu. Not only have I never seen a restaurant add a charge for an on the rocks vs frozen drink before, but it had been THEIR decision to make my drink frozen, with additional charges, unbeknownst to me, so they could sneak it into my bill.  For the flavor, I was also told I had to pick lime or mango, there was never a discussion of anything extra. When I questioned this, the waiter pointed at a guy who by the looks of it probably had experience at having to defend the scammy tactics of the restaurant from unsuspecting customers and smuggly asked us what was the problem which I repeated to him. He showed no interest in addressing the issue and instead smirked at us saying that that's what it was. I looked at the menu again at the bottom where in small letters it said "Please order at risk" and realized now the true intent of the restaurant when stating this. I am disputing the charges with AMEX due to the fraudulent and deceptive practices of this restaurant. Only a desperate restaurant with no integrity would resort to such low tactics with false advertising and sneaking extra fees at the expense of their customers. I have never felt more scammed at eating scraps of mediocre food at best with the aroma of bathroom, a cocktail of orange rubbing alcohol, no condiments or basic sodas as an option, and a bill that shows the true character of this establishment and its tactics. Looking at other reviews afterwards, they are aware of what they are doing and this is a common tactic they employ, sneaking charges at unsuspecting customers hoping either they don't notice or will take the scam since they are of no help. It's clear they are not looking to change their habits. I urge you to report this with your credit card if they are of no help, dispute the charge, and report their fraud so they get flagged. We will never return and advise others to beware. read more

I've been going to the original location on the upper west side since I was a baby so I was excited, but hesitant, to try the new Washington heights location. It was one of the best dining experiences I've had! Not only were the food and drinks delicious - the service was out of this world! Our servers name was Elisa and she was extremely attentive, welcoming, and had great recommendations. I can't wait to make this my new dining spot in the neighborhood!!! read more

I'll preface this review by saying that this is the review you want to read for a total understanding of what to expect when visiting this Flor De Mayo location. My husband and I came in on a Tuesday night for dinner with our daughter. This location is bigger in dining capacity and the staff were incredibly hospitable. They offered an array of recommendations, and as frequent visitors to this restaurant, we already knew what we wanted. Still, it was very nice to see that it was a very personable experience. My husband enjoyed his nut-cracker alcoholic drink, and the food was excellent. I ordered the shrimp scampi with the house fried rice, and My Husband ordered the boneless chicken chunks with house fried rice as well and tostones on the side. Everything was fresh and delicious. We even got the opportunity to speak to the owner and he was a delight. I think it's safe to say that we will be returning, and perhaps, very frequently as this location is closer to us. I've been going to this restaurant's other location for over 10 years, so I am extremely pleased that I got to visit this location and it was just as good, we are very big on consistency and this location succeeded in that. read more

Caribbean soulful foods. One of the best chicken menus I had. The staff are very friendly, very attentive as well. The piñacolada is a must to have. Calamari tastes good as well just right to my liking. Come a little early because the place got packed a little later than 7pm. read more

Amazing food, small and cozy location which I loved. Even though the waitress was overwhelmed with orders she was still extremely attentive to our needs, definitely will recommend and I will be going back. The Lomo and Ceviche is so good! And the fried Yuca is a must try! 5 out of 5 read more
