I tracked this place down while visiting in NYC and I was not disappointed. The restaurant is somewhat small...but it is welcoming. When we first walked in (right when it opened), the host asked if I had reservations, I said no...and he kind of had this "OH" response...Puhleez, the restaurant is empty! What's up with the dumb response? Anyhow, the... More

I recently starting to love mussels and was told by a friend there was a place we had to go the next time I was in NY. Sure enough, flex did not disappoint and went beyond my wildest expectations. The servers are fun, young and keep you smiling the entire time. They have a great wine menu, and the atmosphere... More

We started the evening with a half a dozen oysters. So fresh and delicious. Followed by a 'casserole' filed with excellent mussels, Really the only good way to serve mussels. French fries are also very good. Our waiter was friendly and helpful. Mussels come from Prince Edward Island and are really, really delicious, the chefs at Flex Mussels really know... More

This is my go to spot in NYC for mussels and fries! PEI oysters when they have them are delicious as well! I would definitely recommend the "Parma" mussels, Truffle Fries, and salted caramel doughnuts for dessert!!! Very cozy atmosphere, and excellent food. Enjoy!

Came here for a friend's birthday. I was never a big fan of mussels until I got to try mussels in all different soups. I loved it! Their desserts were decent.

You don't need to travel to Prince Edward Island (PEI) for exceptional mussels. Flex Mussels (13th St near 7th Ave, NYC) imports them from their own family farms there and steams them to perfection. No grit, no hint of staleness, no meager serving, no snooty servers. The most tasty broths and crusty breads are part of the treat. A personal... More

My husband and I visited the 13th street location and were not disappointed. We ordered the Thai mussels since it seemed to be recommended the most and they were amazing. This was our favorite restaurant from our trip from the oysters to the ambiance and service to the donuts for dessert! My only recommendation is to save the bread for... More
