We were a group of 8 at Mr. Flamingo last Saturday night - keep in mind that if you are planning on coming with a larger group, make sure you book far enough in advance as the restaurant is small, with limited seating.
At the time of booking, we mentioned we were coming to celebrate for a bachelorette and the host on the phone said that they would do something nice to honour the celebration.....this was not followed through on.
The service was more or less acceptable - The food arrived hot, and in a timely fashion. The server was kind, but seemed a bit bored or as though his head was somewhere else. I'm not deducting stars because of this - for all we know he could have been having a bad day.
We ordered a bunch of things to share for the table:
Steak Tartare - very good - served with potato chips
Salad - I forget what kind it was as one person ordered for the whole table - the presentation was nothing special, but it was yummy
Mushroom Risotto - comfort food, nice texture, good flavour
Eggplant Parm - we had ordered just one for the table, and ending up ordered 2 more.
Smoked Trout - kind of like a corn chowder with nice-sized chunks of fish. Sweet and delicious.
The place is quite loud so I wouldn't recommend going if this isn't your thing. The menu changes often too.
This was my second time at Mr. Flamingo and I would consider returning!
