Flora Bar

Amazing food, great cocktails fantastic service, and lovely ambiance. We ordered the Lamb Ribs app, and the Mussels and Lobster dumplings for our mains. Highly recommend all of them - Lamb Ribs were our favourite, fall off the bone, spiced to perfection. Lobster dumplings were interesting, not my favourite dish but the flavours started to grow on me with each bite.

The brunch dishes we had were excellent - we had the sea urchin with red shrimp and nori appetizer (not pictured), shakshuka with rye flat bread, and lamb ribs with yogurt and mojo verde. We were satisfied with every bite and wish we had room to try more in one sitting. We also tried two beers - Singlecut (Queens, NY) and Mikkeller (New England) which were both aromatic and refreshing. My personal favorite was the Watermelon Man cocktail with black sea salt, but I believe it’s only on their menu for the summer so try it while it lasts. Overall a great experience, which includes the service and attention my fiancé and I received throughout.

A nice find on the UES. Blink, and you'll probably miss the entrance to this restaurant. Located inside the Met Breuer gallery, on the lower level, this place specializes in seafood, but there are other tasty dishes worth noting, especially for weekend brunch. There's an outdoor Al fresco dining patio which is very nice on a sunny day. The service is good, but there can be a long wait for the food to arrive.
