The mussels were cooked perfectly. The classic is a classic done right. The duchess of bergamot is an amazing cocktail. The bread was heavenly too. They change their draught beers often.

All of the dishes at this seafood joint are incredible, but the one featuring fresh mussels topped with littleneck clams, bacon, red pepper flakes, breadcrumbs and herbs is our favorite. Read more

Mussels mussels mussels (and oysters too)! More choices than one could ever imagine. Just ask the server for his/her fav - sure it will be great! We had the san daniele and acadian (pictured)

Got the number 23 mussels of the day and the lobster mussels in a red sauce (asked for them cooked without butter) - both were amazing! The cocktails were okay and the donuts are a must!

Mussels are cooked to perfection here. I got the Thai broth and it was everything I needed on a rainy day. It also comes with sourdough bread and it’s 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼

My favorite restaurant in NYC! if you're in the mood for something light get the Thai mussels. If you want something heavier go for the Parma and add mushrooms! And don't forget the donuts for dessert

Lemon curd doughnut hole is a sleeper hit. Would come here just for that even though it is a restaurant. Mussels and frites are of course good. Tuna carpaccio and Kumamoto oysters if they have them.

Loved the classic and angry lobster mussels w truffle fries. One bourbon drink very refreshing! Ordered the guac but could have done w/out
Lauren MacJuly 29, 2015
They know how to do broth here. Get the truffle fries and donuts for dessert! Flavors mixed well, and look for the fun instructions on the hallway wall too.
Giulia MJuly 20, 2018
Excellent food! Quality is always amazing - it's crazy to never get a single bad mussel, ever!! Don't forget to try the oysters, other mains, cocktails and desserts too!
Andrea FerreyrosJanuary 31, 2016
The donuts were truly amazing!! We got s'mores, pb&j, wild blueberry and salted caramel. The vanilla bean dipping sauce topped it off!

Got the fungi and San Daniele mussels, very good I really recommand them. The sauces were so good! The sauvignon blanc was great as well. Super experience!

A friendly, casual eatery. We had oysters for starters, super fresh, 4 different kinds. The mussel pot itself was delicious & beautiful. Great wine menu too.

get a glass of the organic sancerre- it is so crisp and refreshing. Dijon mussels are a bit overwhelming but most others are delicious. If you like big hunks of bacon, get the funghi!

Always accommodating and a great place for groups. Sharing several mussels and donuts makes for a wallet and stomach friendly place.
Andrew GattoMarch 1, 2015
Cool seafood spot. Has the appeal of a popup place and the food doesn't disappoint. I enjoyed the Maine mussel pot and the Virginica Oysters. Good for dates too.
TiffanyApril 19, 2016
Get a few pots of mussels to share with friends! Recommend the Thai, Parma, classic and fungi flavors. Also get some truffle fries to split.
Zach CarlileNovember 9, 2015
Fish tacos, Parma mussels, truffle fries & donuts.. thank me later
Sam BrownNovember 5, 2012
Get the Thai Mussels, grab your first one and use the shell from that as your "tongs" for the rest of the meal! So much easier than actual cutlery. Side: Truffle Fries. Cocktail: Flex Side-blast.
Marco WinklerOctober 19, 2018
It had been years since I had eaten at Flex Mussels, probably 5 years in fact. The food was still excellent, particularly the filled donuts for desert.
Emily CharltonJune 26, 2015
Delicious. Can't go wrong with an order of the Portuguese and the Thai. And if you have room, the de donuts are delicious!
Sarah SpagnoloDecember 5, 2014
23 different types of mussels: I chose the Cleopatra. Super friendly service and cool art on the walls.
Alexis BendjouiaOctober 19, 2015
The fish tacos are underrated! A must. Then the Thai and fra diavolo mussels for sure.
AllisonSeptember 30, 2015
Yummy drinks and food. Get the truffle fries. One of the best fish tacos I've had and great deal at happy hour
Nicolette RomeroApril 25, 2015
Splitting a meal for two? The burnt fingers, Acadian mussels and parmesan truffle fries are the perfect combo (and really good)!
ᴡ BNovember 7, 2015
Get the Parma mussels. Get the Parmesan truffle fries. Get the salted caramel doughnuts. Leave completely satisfied and happy.

Go with a group so you can order a bunch! Try the Thai, Parma and fungi with some truffle fries to start
S. FanJune 19, 2012
Although they specialize in mussels but the oysters here are definitely some of the best I ever have in NYC! Fresh and juicy!
KarenDecember 24, 2018

You can't go wrong here, the mussels are delicious. The Parma is insane - its heavy but kind of mind blowing. Truffle fries are a must.
Cecilia Francesca PINEDAAugust 7, 2014
CarbCounters!: Debating eating the bread while waiting for the kitchen? Save bread for leftover broth after you've finished the mussels. Truffle fries: more truffle flavor plz.
Annie TolochinskiAugust 13, 2016
About 20 different varieties of mussels, they all come in an individual pot. Good bar area.

One of my favorite places on the planet! I regret not knowing about this place sooner. The Thai mussels have maximum flavor!
Teresa ElliottAugust 16, 2012
Save room for dessert. The doughnuts are out of this world! We liked the fruit filled ones best.
Angelica YoungDecember 31, 2018
Happy hour here is the place to be. Don't sleep on the doughnuts either...they're as good as everyone says
