All the dishes I ordered has been well prepared. I enjoyed the shrimp wontons and it taste just like the ones in Trinidad especially with the ketchup, pepper sauce and soy sauce mixed together. The curry crab and dumplings was delicious, just wish there were more crab pieces in the dish. I wouldn’t have mind to pay extra for a few more pieces. I recently ordered take out of the veggie fried rice and it was flavorful and fresh. Overall, the food is good have authentic Trini taste.

I thought well of Flamingo Restaurant until my neighbor and I went there recently and saw a roach (twice). I called the attendant and told him. He became combative or perhaps embarrassed, saying that "Oh we don't see those things here". I asked for a discount and he refused. Had he only acknowledge and agree to address the matter, that would have been sufficient but this Restaurant lack of respect, care and or concern left an indelible mark on me. I hope this review serves as a wake-up call to the Restaurant that you do not disrespect the folks who keep you in operation. Please address the roaches and whatever else might me lurking in there. It is not only required for sanitary reasons but it is a LEGAL requirement to maintain pest-free conditions. I hope the local health department pays them a visit soon. No one wants to know that their intake is contaminated, and an owner refuse to acknowledge Good Customer service and care.

Ordered: Chinese Style Chicken Over Fried Rice I decided to try this restaurant because it is in the neighborhood and everyone says their food is tasty. I ordered a popular dish and it looked quite appealing. The portion size was great and I like the added fresh scallions. The fried chicken was crisp on the outside yet soft and juicy on the inside. My issue was with the fried rice, it was way too saucy and there was an overwhelming amount of diced carrots which tasted like frozen vegetables. The rice became soft because of the excess sauce that was added. This was the only item I ordered so I will order again and edit this listing depending on the food I receive.

The food is tasty but I was disappointed in the portions and the way they cut the meat. So for the chicken fried rice, I was shocked at the meat (chicken was cut small like bird small) and there were not enough pieces. The calamari were cut in strips? Really, taken one piece of a circle and cutting it in strips ( did they not think customers would notice)? Don’t talk for the liquor, it’s basically non-existent in the mixed drinks and when you tell them they want to charge you for a shot. They NEVER PUT LIQUOR in their drinks. It’s not worth it for the prices they are charging.

Dear owner of this restaurant, This is my first time buying food online. I ordered curry and rice in one bowl, and all I could taste was sodium. Worst curry in history. Smokey, terrible fried rice. This restaurant needs a new cook or to stop selling these items. Terrible food! Don't buy food from this place.

The staff is so unprofessional, the food they dont cook fresh they reheat it the food was still frozen inside. The only thing they make fresh is the wantons thats it. Everything else is in the fridge and will get reheat to give to customers. One time they had an event and somebody started shooting. I would not recommend anyone to eat here you will get sick.

I went Mantra for a ladies night out and was so disappointed, when we got there literally only two sets of couples was dining outside. No one else was in the dance area, DJ was good but no one was there to dance & enjoy. I left after 20/30mins mainly because it was still literally only me on the dancefloor standing. Went to another spot not too far which was more live and danced the whole night. It was my first time so it's worth a try, but I will not return for a night of partying. I'll maybe return for dining, cause it's more of that type of setting.

I’m very disappointed with my recent order. I spent $86 on several dishes, and the meal with the pepper shrimp and fried rice had a long straight hair in it. This is completely unacceptable and ruined the entire experience. Food safety and hygiene should be a top priority, especially when customers are paying a premium price. I was really looking forward to enjoying this meal, but instead I was left upset and unsatisfied. I hope management takes this seriously and improves their quality control.

The chicken soup tastes like a bowl of salt and Adobo. The shrimp wontons are salty as well and I found a piece of plastic in the bowl of shrimp wonton

The portions is very small there's so much other places in the area to go and not get ripped off. I ordered a calamari they give 5 pieces and full up the bowl with this

The reviews aren’t lying! Ordered the Chinese style fried rice with a serving of wings on the side was not satisfied at all. There was so much sauce and the vegetables felt hard like it was just thrown into the food also portion is only for one meal. The wings is what really upset me about 3 to 4 were literally smaller than my fingers and this is coming from someone with small hands! Everything was absolutely tasteless wasted my money. Especially in the current economy I expected better for the money I spent.
