It was very pleasant to have staff treat us as if we were the only diners in the room—attentive, pleasant, prompt, congenial—it makes the meal so pleasant. The food, as usual, was outstanding from the traditional Flea Street biscuits to the after dinner chocolate, it was a joy to eat. Had the short ribs (excellent—tender, juicy, nice sides), the Oro salmon (high quality), the crab cake (better than usual and better than most competitors with its threads of crab, not just ground up compressed crab meat), an excellent consome, tasty and delicious with mushrooms (although a bit small), and the garden salad (although missing the avocado dressing advertised, but the quality of the greens was enough that we didn't complain). What would we do to improve? More choices of wine by the glass (we had to order a whole bottle to get a white wine we liked); more choices of dessert (only 3 on the menu); more popular imported brands of beer. We will certainly return.

Oysters were high quality but taste ruined with overpowering soy based sauce. Short rib was overdone

Very expensive for the quality of food served. Our friends were vegetarian and they could not even make a vegetarian salad. Really disappointing experience compared to prior years we have really enjoyed our experience at flea street.

Very tasty and extremely expensive per bite. Luckily, 20% tip was included but what is an additional 5.5% “healthy living” charge? We both ordered the one rib lamb chop starter, I had the avocado mouse and my husband had salmon., I had crème brûlée dessert and he had vanilla ice cream,, no alcohol, three sparkling water bottles @ $15. each. The bill was about $250. Loved all and the biscuits but got stale brown bread and short supply of butter.

We had been hoping to go back to Flea Strret for a year and we were not disappointed when we finally got a reservation and dined last night. Jesse greeted us at the door, the service was very good and every choice from the beef tartare to the wild King salmon was delicious. It was a lovely evening and we won’t let another year pass before we return.

The service and ambience were impeccable. We especially loved the beef tartar, the smoked tuna and latkes appetizers and the warm donut holes. Wholesome and delicious.
