Food is spectacular, highly recommend the Thai mussels and the whipped ricotta appetizer! We also had the scampi mussels that was good and the kale salad that was just fine but not worth the price. Service is kind but the place acoustic is terrible so it gets super loud.

I live in the neighborhood and had Flex on my wish list for a while. I wish I had gone sooner — WELL worth it! Delicious seafood – oysters, mussels, lobster roll, cod fritters… and don’t get me started about the donuts for dessert!! Delectable! Highly recommend this spot for a date night.

came here on a friday night with a group of 6 – reservation was made ahead of time. the aesthetic was very seaside / seashore which i loved. the food was absolutely delicious. highly recommend getting the orange wine! the mussels were a hit – the thai probably being the best. we also had the mini donuts for desert with an absolutely necessary espresso martini. great spot!

We came here for happy hour on a weekday. Walk in only no reservations but the wait wasn’t too bad. We got one of each flavor of the mussels and some drinks. The mussels were really good and flavorful. My favorite one was the classic one. Drinks were good too would come back again!

An incredible date night spot. The food is incredible. The amount of mussels you get has so much value. I recommend getting the classic and Dijon. The burnt fingers were a great appetizer with the crispy calamari and peppers.

Came with a friend for dinner and the night was great. We enjoyed sitting at the bar, being well-treated by the bartender. Food was overall 4.3⭐️ but 5 for the whole experience.

We’ve only been to the Happy hour area for a few times. Love the oysters. They are clean and fresh! I kept forgetting the pictures. The HH place is quite tiny so you will need to come just exactly at 5pm to get a table. Good service! It’s a bit more expensive for a HH place. It would cost you easily $100 each if you have a bottle of wine for two and a cocktail each at the beginning of the meal:-)

Hidden gem. One of the best happy hour spots you can go to. I had no reservations and was able to walk in during happy hour time and got seated quickly. There is NO happy hour outdoors. The menu is fairly priced and extensive for the happy hour, we ended up having our dinner here. The crowd at the bar and outdoor seating pick up very quick as the happy hour progresses, definitely make your way here sooner rather than later. There was nothing wrong with everything we ordered, the fungi mussels is the way to go. Do not skip on the oysters! It’s not on their online menu, but their in store menu shows oysters (primarily from PEI) for $1.5 each!

Great spot for oyster happy hours, which go till 7 everyday. Oysters were nice and fresh, my only complaint was that their mignonette variation wasn’t my favorite – but I’m traditional in that regard. And they should just serve the red sauce by request – IMHO using that is akin to ordering a good steak well done. But it’s also a place you can easily move on to a full dinner of… you guessed it, mussels! Several broths to choose from – I got the Dijon – and oh so good! The mussels were super plump and delicious in the sauce. I finished with the donuts, which they’re also famous for, and do suggest you save space for them. They’re really good!
