"We came to celebrate my fiance 's birthday and mother 's day with his family everything went so well! Fiance and I are vegan; his family is not. Still, no plate went unfinished and not a drop was left in our drinks. Must haves from our meal: Tostones (especially the chimi; this is a big compliment coming from a Dominican family , Esquites (order them as a side with main dish , and The Jam tacos (the BEST thing on our table IMO! . We also ordered the Coliflor Frito, Empanadas (both seitan and spinach , The Savory Shroom and Al Pastor tacos, MOM tacos, the Flamingo bowl, Wild Mushroom Quesadilla, Sweet Plantain Arepa, and The Chili Cheese burrito. Everything was good, general consensus was we wanted more tacos, and the chimi was kept on the table for the entire meal! However, my fiance and I both felt the burrito lacked intrigue; our server said it was one of the most popular menu items but it just fell flat for us, kind of one dimensional. The vibe is lovely, feels like an upscale Latin Caribbean hideout with its lush deep green and gold accented decor. We didn 't see the dance area but I imagine it 's a fun time there too. Birthday boy and Mom were both extremely happy at the end of the meal, though we sadly had no room for dessert. Would definitely return! Note there 's a Taco Tuesday special and Happy Hour on Wednesdays to Fridays from 6 8pm! Go get your party on!"

Possibly the best tacos (vegan or with meat) that I have ever had.

the service must improve, short personal and personal should know more about the elements in the menu.

Keller has a great dance room and an amazing music. But it's packed with guys: Soooooo many guys. It's like a girl for all seven guys.

Absolutely fantastic! We were eager to order more of everything almost right away. The only downside is that there's just one dessert option available. View menu

I arrived right on time at 6 PM, but the restaurant didn't open until five minutes later. Overall, the meal was excellent, and the noise level was just right—not too loud, so I could easily chat with the staff and my partner.

The service was lacking, unfriendly, and quite disappointing. While the food was excellent, the service left me feeling upset. It's such a charming place, but unfortunately, the quality of service really impacts the overall experience.

great food, very interesting combinations of aromen. drinks were also pretty good! the only thing I found out was the atmosphere: the interior design of the place is a little strange. it wants to be warm and exotic, but the light and the furniture feel cold and unwilling. View menu

This is a review for the dance club, not the food / cocktails. The place was still beaten on a late Saturday evening (about midnight), but it quickly died, maybe 30 minutes to an hour in and there were very much fewer people. There was no line to get one, but there was a $10 Cash Cover (or $15 Venmo Cover) per person. The bar upstairs takes cards, but the bar down on the dance floor is only cash. The bar above was quite pricy for a vodka cranberry (can be around the $12-15 row). The dance club part left much to wish. The mood was cool as it was quite smokey. However, we expected more pop music as this night was advertised as "Volks DJ", but it ended only a lot of techno, without words. The u...

My boyfriend and I have been wanting to go here for a while now. We’ve become somewhat of vegan foodies throughout our relationship and love to try vegan spots we haven’t been to yet. With that being said, our experience at Black Flamingo was good but not great. We left disappointed. We ordered a few tacos each and ordered a main entree each. All of the tacos were amazing and delicious, and for $4 each during Happy Hour we loved it. However, the same can not be said for our entrees. My boyfriend ordered the Flutas and upon our first few bites we realized it needed A LOT more seasoning and spice then what we were served. The Flutas tasted bland and nothing near Vegan Spanish food we have had...

"When we called to reserve a table, no one informed us that there was a dining time limit of 1.5 hours. My friend wanted to invite more people to join us for dinner, but I was unsure if everyone would agree to the minimum charge of $60, including taxes and tips. I confirmed a reservation for 7 people during my second call, but ultimately, only 6 of us showed up. The table we were given was quite small, making it uncomfortable for six people, especially with the mandatory minimum spending of $60, as well as a 20% tip. For just two people, the minimum tip is 18%. I was confused about the dining time limit—was it two hours or 1.5? The party area was limited to just the backyard for additional seating. I was with friends who didn’t know the group well, and we arrived early at 3 PM, but we couldn’t wait until 6:30 PM. That’s why we ended up sitting at a separate table for two. Unfortunately, the restaurant didn’t seem to care and couldn’t arrange for us to be seated closer together. We had no choice in the matter. To make matters worse, the female waiter had a poor attitude. It felt like we were dining in a sidewalk market. She questioned another girl who served me ponzu sauce, apparently because I looked impatient when I saw her face. Her attitude only worsened after that. It seems like they need to train their employees better, as they seem unaware of how to provide good service. As for the food, it was just okay, typical of basic Japanese cuisine. There were too many restrictions! Customers are forced to adhere to the restaurant’s rules and limitations. I cannot recommend this place unless someone is specifically looking for a fast-food experience. In short, I don’t think I’ll be returning next time."
