The restaurant has a very old school feel, but it's not a bad thing. It did have a surprising amount of space. The service was quick and friendly. Now the food. I would recommend the Seco de Res. It's a solid stew and comes with deliciously flavored cilantro rice. Very filling. The pollo a la brasa is very good also and decently priced. My in-laws enjoyed the lomo saltado, which looked pretty good. I was surprised to learn that they didn't carry salchi papa, which my kid loves, but he did enjoy the pollo a la brasa. read more

I haven't been here in a long time. It's still the same small tight place. It's always a wait to eat here. The food, drinks a d service are good. Just make sure your whole party is there to dine, if not you have to wait until everyone is there. It's a cozy place to go chill afterwork and for dinner. There Frozen Nutcracker is good but taste like Nyquil. read more

So I was in the mood for some good fried chicken or as it's called, Chicharon De Pollo (Fried chicken chunks) and I know this spot makes it good over here. So that's what I ordered along with some white rice and Maduros (Fried, sweet plantains) I definitely enjoyed my meal. The chicken was nice, soft and juicy with and great flavor. I think they use the breast. Rice was good. I mean you can't mess that up right? It had a nice flavor. And the sweet plantains were nice and soft and sweet the way they should be honestly. Some places serve you hard sweet plantains which to me, I just can't do personally. Might as well get Tostones. The service was on point as usual. Servers were very accommodating and attentive. Pleasant. The ambiance was nice. Easygoing. Clean restaurant, nice decor. People enjoying their meals while chatting amongst themselves. So if you're in the mood for some good food hit up Flor De Mayo. They have a wide selection of Chino Latino cuisine as they are a Peruvian/Chinese restaurant and their food is Zee bomb! Delicious. Okay yall, have a great day -Ray read more

Had an enjoyable Sunday dinner at Flor de Mayo with two old friends visiting. We needed a UWS spot to eat and I'd been eyeing Boliche Mechado (Cuban Pot Roast) on this location's Lunch Special menu for a while, but never made it over during the week. We were promptly seated in a booth in the back, a good spot for reconnecting. Literally, we could quickly break bread together - a fresh crusty sliced baguette brought promptly to the table. One of my friends ordered a bowl of Wonton Soup. We each selected different entrees: Pollo a la Brasa, their signature Peruvian rotisserie chicken, with Fried Rice; Lomo Chicken; and myself finally trying out their Boliche Mechado with Green (Cilantro) Rice. After the nice soup, our large platters came promptly. The rotisserie chicken also included some small salad and dipping sauce. The Lomo Chicken, stir-fried with tomato and onions, came with both Fries and Fried Rice. My wonderful Boliche Mechado was in a flavorful chorizo sauce that complemented well with my sizable portion of tasty Green Rice, served on the side. It was an awesome "Old School" setting to reconnect, never having to shout over music like many contemporary restaurants with filling, delicious food. Definitely, I anticipate making it back to this Flor de Mayo, perhaps eventually for one of those Lunch Specials! read more

TLDR: If you've never had Chino Latino - you're depriving yourself of some crazy good stuff. Large portions, even larger flavors. Broiled pork chop, lomo saltado, squid ink fried rice, seco de res. You're welcome. I've been eating at the Amsterdam location for years but recently I've been coming to this one. It's a family run spot with a full Chino Latino menu. Think a collision of Chinese and Peruvian/Spanish. They've got some straight up Spanish things, totally Chinese and in between. For starters, definitely try the papa arequipena. It's a Peruvian potato either cold or fried with this red pepper sauce and hard boiled eggs and olives. It's a very unique flavor. If you're there on the weekends, grab the shrimp stew. It's an ultra tasty shrimp soup with rice, corn, a bit of spice. The broiled pork chops are probably my favorite pork chops anywhere. They're brined incredibly well are dotted with chopped garlic that caramelizes under the flame. It's so insanely juicy. Squid ink fried rice is a must. It's a squid ink coated fried rice with ham, shrimp, pease and a unique ginger flavor. The lomo saltado you definitely need to get. Sliced steak in a stir-fried sauce with onions, tomato and french fries on top of rice. The other items I'd recommend are the seco de res, a cilantro-centric tender beef stew. The tallarin verde is a Peruvianish pesto pasta, it's great with the garlic shrimp. No matter how much good stuff I've eaten, Flor de Mayo is in my list of restaurants I love going to and bringing visitors to. It's something that's tough to find but it's a testament to the melting pot that NYC is. read more

I've been coming to this place for nearly two decades now and it's just as good as it was back then. This place combines all that is great from the local Chinese and Peruvian spots and mashes it up in one place. There are still things that I have yet to try because I can't stop ordering the delicious lomo saltado and the can miss Peruvian style chicken. Also the baby shrimp fried rice was well executed. Had the pork chop the last time I was there and it was so good. I really want to try the the bbq ribs and the egg foo young someday. Also love that the food comes out quick even though service can be a bit slow flagging down a waiter to order. Also small so wait can be a bit long. But it's worth the wait. read more

Never had Chinese Peruvian food before so was very intrigued. Came on a weekday night and was surprised that the store was packed. Was able to get seated quickly and they allowed us (2 people) to sit at a 4 person table which was very nice of them. - Complimentary Bread - I don't know what they put in this bread, but I was a huge fan. The bread was so soft and hot... and with the butter, it was just perfection. I also loved the crust as it was very flaky and crisp. I could just eat this as a whole meal and be happy. - Lomo Saltado (Beef) - I was not a big fan of the fried rice on the side but this was one of the best Lomo Saltado I've had in the city. The tomatoes and onions were cooked to perfection as they were very soft and packed with flavor. The fries were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The beef was also very tender but crispy at the same time. - Chinese Style Squid Fried Rice - Not a big fan. Feel like there was a strong oily after-taste like the fried rice in the Lomo Saltado. I did appreciate how many ingredients there were, but it didn't feel very appetizing. Overall, would just recommend the bread and the Lomo Saltado if you do come here. Also, I have to say that it's refreshing to watch all the servers play around, it made me very happy to know that they all are great friends with one another. read more

The service was great. They never let us have an empty cup of water which I appreciated a lot and were friendly. In terms of food, the portion was amazing for the price (lunch specials). The chicken was my favorite. They kept the chicken so tender and juicy. Of course, the flavors were there too. The shredded beef was good, but I am not a huge fan to tomato base. Nothing wrong with the dish, just personal preference read more

Flor de Mayo is the one restaurant I always have to visit when I come back home. It's incredibly nostalgic for me, as I grew up eating here, and the food never disappoints. While prices have gone up over the years, the quality has remained consistent. My go-to dish is the Lomo Saltado with the house special fried rice. The shrimp in red sauce or the broiled fish with garlic and lemon are also fantastic choices. I'm not a fan of the Nutcracker, though it's very popular with others. I always pair my meal with a Tsingtao beer. The service is always great, and both locations offer the same quality food and hospitality. I just love this place! read more

The food was okay HOWEVER DO NOT go here during the WINTER..! It was so cold we had to eat with our coats and hats on!! They also had the ceiling fans ON, I had to request for them to be turned off. Also when the waiter asked if everything's was ok I told him no it's freezing and he rubbed and pat me on my back (as if to "warm" me up) did not help !!! read more

If you haven't been to Flor de Mayo yet, you're sorely overdue. Lomo Saltado, pork chops, and the roast chicken accompanied by the house fried rice cannot be beat. It's not a fancy place and certainly not where you impress colleagues. However, it is a darn good place to fill your belly and still have leftovers for the next day. The staff is diverse and so are their English skills. But they are helpful and eager to bring your hearts desire in food and liquid form. Their drinks are pretty phenomenal and strong. The sangria is a nice midpoint but their natural, non-alcoholic juices are a good option as well. Good eats. Downsides: not much fare for vegetarian/vegan folks, only 2 tiny bathrooms that can use some work and attention, if you have to wait to get a table stick close to the host or risk getting skipped. They take most forms of payment but cash is appreciated here. read more

This location of Flor de Mayo Restaurant (Broadway & West 100 St.) is very good. The food is good, the staff is friendly & it's smaller than the Flor de Mayo on Amsterdam Ave. (Whose food isn't as good lately) The steak & onions was very tender & tasty, the white rice was cooked perfectly & the stewed beans were good. The house fried rice was good, as was the chicken & vegetables & the chicken noodle soup & of course the avocado salad & fried sweet bananas are always good. It was a late lunch/early dinner so it wasn't crowded or noisy & the staff was very accommodating. I recommend this particular location. read more

I've heard of this place for a long time but never got around to going here. Today i decided to venture here w my lady. We ordered as appetizers the spare ribs and the fried chicken pieces w the bone. So delicious. The food tasted like old school chinese food so good! The portions were plentiful so much so that we were contemplating on if we needed to order more food. We decided we should and share the entree. I ordered the palomino steak w pork fried rice. Delicious! Only reason i gave it 4 stars was the drinks we ordered. She ordered a voodoo and i ordered a nutcracker. The drinks werent that good too me unless you like alot of alcohol lol. The ambiance is casual. Will def go again. read more

Ordered Shrimp with Lobster sauce. Terribly over salted- 2 shrimp tasted not fresh, the others good. I loved this dish from this restaurant in the past.

A unique combo of Peruvian and Chinese food. The food was solid though you likely have better options while in NYC. The portion of their Lomo Saltado (Steak) is generous and tasty. Because the fries are mixed in with the beef, they were soft and not crispy as I would've preferred. We got shrimp fried rice to pair with it which tasted decent despite the shrimps being rather small. Overall it was not bad, just not great! read more

Marching into Flor de Mayo with our motley crew of six adults and five little prodigies on a bustling Saturday night felt like wrangling a herd of caffeinated kangaroos, but miraculously, our table for giants stood resilient! The service was so on point, it's like they had a black belt in managing mayhem.The feast - from the mouthwatering fried rice to the tantalizing chicharrón de pollo, the soup that could cure a grizzly bear's blues, and the tostones that were practically poetry - each dish was a delicious masterpiece. Kudos, Flor de Mayo, for transforming our dining escapade into a culinary circus for six adults and their squad of mini food critics! read more
