I wanted to like the food (especially for the price), however it missed the mark completely. There seemed to be higher importance in making creative dishes with unique ingredients but this resulted in disappointing and inconsistent flavors course after course. Another reviewer hit the nail on the head saying this place is a Michelin star-wannabe restaurant. To be honest, I would not return even if the meal was free. My advice is to stop trying to be so creative and place more emphasis on creating tasty food.
Really a lot of fun. The staff were wonderful and the food was interesting. Cant wait to come back when they can do the communal tables again
This is a must-try experience for sure! Service from start to finish is excellent. We were met with a sense of familiarity and warmth, akin to visiting a good friends home rather than a high-end restaurant.I can understand where some may have misgivings because these are not your typical steakhouse meals. Taste-wise, the food is very good. When you take into consideration the thought and technique involved, it easily justifies the prix fixe cost. What makes this experience great, however, is the drink pairing. Do it. As the designated driver, I had the mocktail pairing. My preparer presented each drink just as the sommelier would introduce the wines to each table, so I felt included. My husband had the Baller pairing, which exposed him to higher-end wines he might not have ever tried. All in all, very fun. We highly recommend it!
I really wanted to give this place 4 stars, but I just cant, considering how disappointing the food was. Initially, I was very excited to try out FLX Table. It has great ratings and a great reputation, so I had high expectations going into this experience.The setting/atmosphere:This place has great ambience. It has a humble-yet-elevated vibe, which is a fun paradox and creates an interesting personality.The server and sommelier were nice, and I enjoyed the chefs food explanations and personal interactions. Overall, I loved the way they designed the experience of the meal.The food:Most of the courses we were served were sadly lacking. For the first course, I found the mixture of raw and prepared fruits and vegetables to be quite unappealing. Im not sure if it was because they were sitting out for a while, but it wasnt an enjoyable experience. The bread and range of condiments that accompanied them were good, but the whole thing felt ill-fitting and texturally confused. The second course had great flavor but was essentially a garnish on the rim of an empty plate. Disappointing. The third course, congee, was a decent attempt but lacking in flavor. Having enjoyed a good amount of authentic congee in the past, this was a huge letdown. The main meat course which followed was fine but forgettable. The dessert had some nice subtlety to it and was the best part of the meal, but was too little too late.I doubt Ill return, as its too expensive to court disappointment again. But I hope the food may improve so that FLX Table can offer a truly great restaurant experience in Geneva.
We had a big group of people to celebrate friends birthday. Staff is very welcoming and friendly. The service throughout the night is fantastic - seamless in a way that you wont feel their existence but everything is taken care of from half empty water glasses, finished plates to new silverware. The environment is warm and absolutely love the family style seating. Unfortunately the food was supposed to be the highlight of the experience but it felt short. Every dish was good just nothing amazing which is a common theme in upstate NY I find. They did try to create unique combination of flavors. I think the idea is great but flavors arent concentrated enough for certain dish to bring each other up. Some dishes had unbalanced profile with one spice overpowering the rest of the dish disrupting tasting experience. Rounding up from 3.5 stars. Still worth experiencing.
Really thoughtful and delightful pairings. The selections the Somm had for each course were perfect and unique, worth spending the money for the highest tier pairing. The food was expertly prepared in front of us and the chef answered all questions. Really a FLX gem.
The restaurant is one of the best I have ever been. The communion table is a great way to meet other foodies and wine drinkers. The food is fresh and the menu is amazing. The staff is super friendly and the service is on point. Definitely would go back when I visit Seneca Lake again
We dined here with 2 other couples for the 5:45 seating on Sept. 29 and it was everything we had hoped for in the experience. We are in our mid-30s and our other dining companions that evening were the same. Im not sure if it always ends up like that, but we saw the 8:15 seating and they were probably in their 50s or 60s for anyone thats wondering about which time to go. We initially wanted the 8:15 seating but liked being able to go for a drink beforehand, enjoy dinner, and finish by 8 and have time for a nightcap after.The setting is modern farmhouse and casual, just like you would be in someones home. We started with vegetables and bread from Amazing Grains and 4 different butters and even more dips. It was an auspicious start. Most of the courses were vegetable focused but even my less adventurous dining companions loved everything. Our favorite was the poached halibut that was cooked to perfection. I will probably never have a fish cooked that perfectly again. Dessert was poached pears with pistachio, a crumb cake, brown butter caramel and meringue.I highly recommend dining at FLX Table. We had a wonderful and delicious time and look forward to returning.Tip for reserving: I made my reservation for Sept. 29 at 1:30 PM on August 1. The reservation opened at 12 noon and the 8:15 seating was already taken. Get on as close to 12 noon if you need a specific date and time.
We shared a great night out with friends at FLX Table. It’s a fun environment and an interesting idea. There is one large table of about 14 people. The staff have great winning personalities and work hard at making it a fun experience for all. The menu is the menu, you eat what they prepare, there are really no choices. I liked everything, some people in our group didn’t like each course, but there are several, so even if you don’t like one, there are more to come. It’s worth a trip if you’re in the area.
This was a lovely dinner to wrap up our honeymoon in the Finger Lakes. My husband is a chef and was thrilled with the level of service and the food. We had a wonderful dinner. Their COVID precautions were excellent and we felt comfortable during our entire meal. Our only hiccup was getting a ride home at the end of the night (no reliable car services) but management helped get us a ride home and we were so grateful! We look forward to taking an anniversary trip one day and dining with F.L.X. Table again!
IF you are lucky enough to get a reservation here, this is a must do restaurant. Its an amazing experience! The food is incredible and they are very knowledgable and helpful in explaining everything that they prepared for you.
We were lucky enough to be the only table seated the night we went and what an incredible dining experience it was! Wine was paired perfectly with our meal, staff was informative, friendly and attentive, food was absolutely delicious.
Absolutely incredible dining experience, if you live anywhere close to Rochester or the finger lakes you owe it to yourself to go enjoy it
We visited for a private five course wine pairing dinner experience as a large bachelorette group. From the minute we walked in every employee was absolutely wonderful and our group had so much fun. We had quite a few dietary restrictions and they were all accommodated beautifully with delicious dishes. They truly went above and beyond! From surprising us by bringing out more wine varieties to educate us about different Rieslings when we asked questions, to helping out our group when our driver was delayed at the end of the night, the service was absolutely above and beyond all expectations. We even had personalized menus with Best Wishes for the Bride to Be and they allowed decorations. Absolutely our favorite experience in the Finger Lakes and a big thank you to everyone at F.L.X table!
Absolutely spectacular! From beginning to end the choices of wine from their private collection were so excellently paired with the food, we were left speechless. Thank you so for the perfect honeymoon experience!
Where to begin? FLX Table is something fun and special. Its about the experience as much as the amazing food. The intimate setting and surprise menu is such a welcome change from the predictable. Weve visited three times and thoroughly enjoyed each meal. Attentive staff and expert sommelier to inform us about the unique wine pairings. Fun venue as well. Thank you!
My husband and I had dinner here last night - it was a treat. The food was fresh and tasty, the staff was incredibly cordial, and we left feeling like wed been to a fun dinner party. Geneva has a great ambiance, part gritty, part cool, and eating at the FLX Table was a relaxed and delicious experience.
Best meal Ive had in the finger lakes. So much care was taken for all of the food and everything was delicious. The wine pairings were also well worth the price and a truly great diverse selection. Loved the boho/family vibe of the place. Truly a uniquely great experience in the area.
Absolutely mind blowing meal + super fun experience! Knowledgeable staff!!!!
Really great experience and the food was fantastic!
Fantastic personal experience - great service, unique and dynamic delivery. Relaxed meal far from cheap but an extraordinary treat. Make sure you join in with wine pairings - mixing it up at your table gives more opportunity for diversity of tasting.
Do people in upstate NY not know what fine dining is? The first plate is literally cut vegetables and a hunk of bread tossed on a plate that I could do myself at my house for 5% of the price. If you are charging $300+liquior in upstate NY it better be food sent from God himself, instead I received what would be a 1600s medieval tavern meal for the experience.
Truly one of the best dining experiences in the area, without being stuffy. The whole staff puts forth an effort to make you feel welcome.Do not expect Applebee’s. If you want generic microwaved food, go elsewhere. FLX is a unique experience; different every time. Each of the five courses and wine pairings are well thought out and executed perfectly by a professional chef.Pro tip: get one of their wine packages with your dinner.
OMG, what an exquisite experience! The food was incredible. The wine impeccable. The setting, the service, the experience-beyond wonderful. The chef is a true artist. We had a fantastic time!
This is one of the best restaurants I’ve been to. Really, it is an experience with high quality food, wine pairing, and interactive staff. Chef Brian was so nice and answered all of our questions about the food. The whole staff, especially the chef, made us feel special. The staff was professional, friendly, and personable. The menu was creative and the table set up was nice. I left this place feeling like the restaurant wanted to make sure you had the best experience possible. They truly put the art in cooking and gave us a show.Food wise, the dishes were unique and very flavorful. It was eclectic in design. All the dishes were explained in detail. We left with a nice and suspenseful treat at the end.On a side note, I went during the COVID pandemic and I felt very comfortable. They took extra precautions and made sure the dining experience was safe. They asked for any allergies beforehand and remembered them when we arrived as well.Highly recommended (especially for date night or a celebration in a large group)!
FLX Table describes itself as one of the Finger Lakes premier dining experiences. Im afraid it is not. In fact, it is a poor imitation of gourmet dining. We went with high expectations and left with a feeling of great let-down.Our prix fixe menu started with raw vegetables and crusty bread and assorted dips and flavored butters. While the bread was tasty, the crudites were not; the butters and dips were, however fine. It was a facile, unsophisticated start to the five course meal. This was followed by small fresh oysters and a cucumber salad with octopus and a Szechuan chili-mayo sauce. The managers should know that specialties like raw oysters and octopus are not to the liking of many diners, us included. Alternatives should be offered. We skipped both. A wee morsel of meatball followed. O-k-a-y... The entree, New Zealand venison with a quinoa tabbouleh aioli was tough and lacking in flavor. In fact, mine was so tough and gristly, I had to spit out most of it on my plate. It was like chewing leather. I finally gave up and abandoned the rest. The dessert was an unremarkable strawberry crumble. No coffee. No tea. The staff rushed the 15, or so, diners out with toasted marshmallows.While the servers were unfailingly cheerful and responsive, the service was little better than what one encounters in most (less expensive) upscale restaurants. However, dirty silverware went unchanged between courses and table debris clean-up was spotty. There were no salt and pepper shakers.The rather small combined dining/kitchen space is bright and cheery, with lovely boxes of herbs hanging from the ceiling. That said, the decor is bland and forgettable. Worst of all is the acoustics. The restaurant would benefit from strategically placed acoustic tiling, area rugs and wall tapestries to deaden the noise.We opted for a pre-dinner wine tasting at FLXs neighboring shop, called, Provisions. Our server was very informed and pleasant and went out of her way to provide us with a broad sampling of Fingerlakes wines. Sadly, all but a sparkling Riesling ranged from terrible to mediocre.The more a restaurant charges, the more discriminating I am. After all, for $100-plus per head, a customer has every expectation of a very special dining experience. Not only spectacular, flaw-free cuisine, but service with dash and panache and creativity. FLX sorely lacks in all these areas. Exemplars of this class of gourmet dining can be found at the Inn at Little Washington (Virginia), Summit at the Broadmoor (Colorado Springs, CO) and the North Fork Table & Inn (Southold, NY). The dining experiences at these establishments linger in your memory literally for years. Sadly, this is not true of FLX, which we found forgettable at best. Foremost on my mind as we departed was where I could grab a hot pizza.I really wanted to rate FLX with several stars, but, unfortunately, they couldnt even make the cut past one star in our case. As others have remarked, FLX is really a wine bar posing as a Michelin-wannabe restaurant. From other reviews, others clearly felt differently. That said, we wont be returning.
Food was amazing, dining experience was great, staff friendly and knowledgeable, setting was cool. Loved, loved, loved the hip hop playlist that night. Will definitely recommend and look forward to coming back. Thanks so much for the birthday touch!
The best course is the 1st course which consists of raw vegetables and some decent sauces to dip them in. We went here with a private group for a birthday party. I cant imagine having to sit there with strangers. No music. Weird situation. The meal itself is expensive, then throw in the wine and you wont be able to pay your rent or mortgage for the month! I noticed one wine that costs $20 for a bottle at the liquor store, but $110 a bottle at this place. At the end of the just okay meal, we were RUSHED out the door! My wife and I paid over $300 for a not so great meal and a few drinks and we were pushed out the door because others were coming in for their reservation (just under 2 hrs after we got there with a big group). They sent us over to the wine bar for FREE TOASTED MARSHMALLOWS for dessert! We went over there and they toasted them with a freakin lighter. Thanks for the subpar meal, rushing us out the door, and the free dessert of lighter burnt marshmallows (which was actually better than at least 2 of the courses). The wine guy is nice.
All of the F.L.X. restaurants are amazing, but Table is by far our favorite. They have the best food I have ever eaten, amazing staff, and the atmosphere is very unique. My husband and I came here the night we got engaged, and even booked the whole place for our wedding reception! They definitely made it a very special night for us. You will not regret a night at this restaurant. Their care and concern for their customers is also beyond compare.
What an incredible experience!! Food was insanely good and exciting. Pace of the meal was excellent. I could eat the local salt bread with the chimichurri and truffle cottage cheese and duck schmaltz all day every day. Perfectly cooked octopus in nettle soup, perfectly cooked pork belly with carrot purée. Interesting boba cheese tea with tortillas and roasted honey mallows. Pairings were curated by a sommelier that customized everyone’s experience based on their preferences - really impressive. And the mocktail pairing was bomb, too. A bit hectic at the start because we were their second seating and they were still wrapping up the first tho encouraged us to come early for a welcome drink. Otherwise, would absolutely return for a fabulous meal.
One of the best dining experiences Ive had included delicious 5 course meal with a table of 12 strangers (and a friend of mine)! Every course outdid the last and the chef even came to chat with me about my dietary needs. The hosts were so friendly and attentive and I cant wait to go again.
We had the best time here celebrating birthdays. It was a lot of fun with tons of laughter. The wine and food were amazing. JJ, Gary and Michalis made our night memorable. We would absolutely come back!
Couldnt have been a more pleasurable experience. I wont spoil it too much (you have to go and see for yourself!), but the food, service, and company were incredible. Not many places you can go out to dinner and be simultaneously pushed out of your comfort zone to try something new. They also did a fantastic job of accommodating my vegan dietary restriction!! If you can, definitely get some sort of wine pairing with the meal. These people know what theyre doing and they dont disappoint. (:
Could not have been more excited to be coming here for my fiancees birthday. A rather disjointed start with the previous seating running over into the next time slot. After getting a round of drinks and waiting for them to turn the tables over all three groups were brought in. We are essentially all facing each other with no introduction or why we were all here (anniversaries, birthdays etc.). Common ground is great instead of awkwardly not trying to look around while we eat. To start pairing options were presented with no other single glass/ bottle/ or beer options presented. Farmers board to start with some great veggies, and dipping sauces as well as a loaf of bread and assorted butters. Interesting to note a review from 2 years ago mentions the same rubber duck style form for center butter (doesnt make it feel very special). We are pretty open minded eaters and we like to go out and try new places often and for the price expected a pretty well thought out experience. Pickled duck hearts with a beef broth were not bad. Next was a Leek and Chanterelle Mushroom dish where the chef could be seen pouring pre-made sauces out of containers similar to a Chinese take out containers for dumplings. Then the ask for the up-charge of an additional shaving of black truffle. Wine pairings and dishes throughout seemed rushed. Duck a Lorange with quinoa was super sugary sweet duck (again pre-made sauce poured out of to go container) and over salted quinoa. It was almost inedible. Near the end we received a popcorn box with a party hat and mardi gras beads (neither of which are very eco friendly, for a place that sources local and would hopefully be more thoughtful in that respect). Then we finally found out why we each of us were there. The manager comedically dropped/threw a fake cake at my fiancee for her birthday, and the other two parties were celebrating anniversaries. Which finally sparked conversation for the last 15-20 min of the meal. The lemon curd cakes in little skillets were tasty. Then we were rushed out due to covid restrictions (wouldnt have been as much of a rush if they had the first dinner party out on time) This all being said. The Staff was nice, but the experience and food was just way off from the price paid. It felt contrived/unnatural kind of like a poorly practiced play and was extremely underwhelming. I really wish them the best in the future as I love supporting local restaurants and hope they can go back to the drawing board to create something special.
Unique dining experience. One table with 14 chairs, prixe fixe menu, optional wine pairing. Different menu every night. Fantastic food. Loved everything. Had the middle wine pairing, which was outstanding and perfectly paired. Even the bread and butter options are amazing. Very difficult reservation. Expensive, but worth it.
Food and wine pairing was excellent. Workers were knowledgeable and fun. Setting in an old building in Geneva was cool. I think it would have been even better if it would not have been for covid-19 and having to space the tables out, because there would have been more interaction with the other patrons.
Amazing farm-to-table experience! Seems like theyve adapted well to COVID, felt very safe and yet didnt miss out on an iconic experience. Food was exceptional, service was lovely, and a truly fun and enjoyable dinner.
Food was great. Portions were a little small even with 5 course we left and went to Fry Bird for mac and cheese after. For the price you would like to think you dont need to eat somewhere after. But everything was cooked to perfection and looked beautiful. Wines and service were the highlight of the experience! My husband did the beer pairing and was very happy with that as well!
Great wine, great atmosphere, great service. It fell down on the food. One course was fried smelt and I do not feel head and tails are consistent with fine dining. Dessert was also very dry for a honey cake.
Made a reservation for Valentine’s Day dinner back on December 1st. Drove 5 hours from DC to the Finger Lakes in anticipation of this experience, only to receive a phone call at 1:00pm on Valentine’s Day letting us know that they would be closing the restaurant for dinner service that night, making absolutely no effort to fix the situation or provide any alternative (besides putting the $300 dinner into takeout boxes). This left us stranded with no reservations for Valentine’s Day dinner in a region where decent restaurants are hard to come by. Unacceptable in my opinion. Thanks a whole lot.
Dinner was a fun long-table gathering with great wait staff. The wine pairings were excellent-recommended. The food, on the other hand, was good for two of the dishes, the other three being a bit coarse and not cooked through. I expected a more carefully prepared and presented meal for the price of the evening.
Delightful food , presented with careful attention to presentation and staging . Carefully and thoughtfully planned and executed meals using all local ingredients, artfully done. Impeccable service without being intrusive, and extremely informed , yet personable and friendly staff make it a true delight .The wine pairing is impressive ( my suggestion if there are two of you is to get one “Baller” and one Local Baller which gives you a more of less European flight and a local Finger Lakes wine flight so you can contrast and compare - but either flight is an excellent companion to your meal - it’s just nice to compare.Also the wine is served in Riedel wine glasses appropriate to each wine which definitely helps as the right glass can make a huge difference.Overall the service and food is impeccable.
Wonderful experience with quality food! Definitely on the pricey side but you are paying for the experience, not just the food! The one thing that needed kicked up was the dessert...we were served an Amish hand pie with strawberry and apple filling...just ehh. Nothing inventive or exciting with that compared to the rest of the meal! That is the only reason I didnt give a 5 star rating...
Dinner party re-imagined with social distancing for the covid era. Another wonderful meal with superb wine pairings for each course. The staff did a great job keeping everything moving and helping us have a great time.
So delicious and everyone is so friendly. We always have such a great time and great food! This time the food was proportioned just right and we were able to finish everything on our plates and still leave full. Definitely worth the wait and money.
Extremely unique in that you do not get to pick the menu. Personally I really enjoyed our fare, my fiancee is not a fan of some off the beaten path dishes so it wasnt her fancy. Nonetheless we agreed its a fun twist and an opportunity to try something new. The souve egg was unreal, so good!!!
My favorite restaurant up in the FLX region. The food was absolutely perfect. There was a small issue with my reservation but the staff was so accommodating and helpful. The wine pairing I did was the Baller Pairing, and I loved, loved, loved all the wines served. If you are in the area it is definitely worth stopping in.
After wanting to visit for a year or so, we were finally able to make time on our vacation to attend a seating. We paired our meal with the Baller pairing and a pre dinner tasting. What a wonderful experience, the service was outstanding, the food ample and delicious but the standout was how wonderful all the wines were that both my husband and I were served.Each course was thoughtfully presented, the Chef and Sommelier both educated the table on our dishes and drinks. Honestly, a 5 star experience.If you are considering dining at the Table, do so. Its such a memorable moment.
I’m not sure where to begin. Our entire experience far exceeded my expectations— which were quite high given the reviews from friends who had been already. The pre dinner drinks next door is a must— exceptional service and we were able to mingle with some of our dinner guests and get to know them prior to dinning with them. Our dinner was, hands down, the best meal I’ve ever eaten. The food was amazing, the staff was top notch, the drinks were delicious, our company was lively and the music... the music was a nice surprise. Thank you FLX Table, you all are rockstars! We will return!
I will venture to say this was one of the best meal experiences Ive ever had. In a completely unsuspecting building/storefront in Downtown Geneva NY, you find this amazing gem. On top of 5 star level food, their customer service-- the warm and friendly feeling you get when they greet you at the door, makes the whole experience feel like youre at a old buddys house for a snazzy dinner party. Everything from the beer and wine pairings, to the octopus gazpacho, to the fun desert was top notch and well worth the price tag.
Absolutely incredible experience. The food is incredible. The staff is extremely friendly.Would plan a trip back to the finger lakes solely for this restaurant.
We have eaten at FLX Table twice and have really enjoyed our evenings. Great meals with lots of great flavors. Several wine pairing options are available if you are interested - beer is also an option. Enjoyed the farm to table dining room and atmosphere. We enjoyed getting to know the other 12 diners at the farmtable we all shared - fun folks, nice to meet them all. Those who ran the evening at FLX Table - Scott, Alex, Michail and Gary - all did a great job. Thanks for the fun and delicious evenings! We will be back :- )
Its very good, well thought out food in a very nice setting. That said, I just felt it was over priced for what it was. Having a bunch of silverware in a basket feels like a folksy covid process, but it just comes off as clumsy.
Excellent. Very unique experience with 1 seating time and all tables eating at the same time. You can watch the chef the whole time. Very, very good. Will go back.
This was an absolutely amazing EXPERIENCE. The welcome is so warm and personal and the atmosphere is just right. And thats all before you get to the amazing food and drink!I would recommend letting them guide you through this adventure. They know just the right beverage to compliment the complex flavors on your plate. Thank you so much for the most wonderful evening!Cheers!
Always a great meal and a great time. Not for those with a limited palate or budget. Wine programs are great.
One previous reviewer mentioned how the chef here does not do a good job developing flavors. Having now experienced the place myself, I see what that reviewer means. Now, the experience as a whole is memorable and enjoyable. I liked the shared table, the pre-meal wine selection (though your pockets have to be SERIOUSLY deep for some of the choices), and the general feel and atmosphere. The food...well, it was a mixed bag. The meal began with a bowl of bread and vegetables, some raw, some cooked, and a selection of sauces and butters, some 8 - 10 of them, which is far too many. A little paring-down of the selections would have been helpful. The next course was a salmon-based amuse bouche, which was served on the edge of a much larger plate; it felt too pretentious by half and was frankly not that great. The cauliflower bisque after that was better, though the line of flavor (I forget what it was supposed to be) that crossed it could have been laid out in a more creative fashion. The main course was a chicken roulade with a risotto; the former was basically just steamed chicken and was pretty dull; the risotto was considerably better. The best course was dessert, which was overall quite flavorful. As for the wines, the choices were perfectly acceptable, although I am not sure I got value for my $150, but one of the wines they served was given to me with pieces of cork in it, which seems like the kind of amateurish mistake that a restaurant with aspirations to fine dining should not make. The most interesting of the wines I was served was a Hungarian Tokaji with dessert, which was AMAZING. To summarize, the experience as a whole was worth the price, but keep your expectations for the food on the low side, and look out for stray cork in any older wines you are served.
This is a must-do in the Fingerlakes. The meal was delicious, well-balanced, and priced far less than I would have paid for it. The wine pairings were thoughtful and, at times, interesting. While we started the dinner as strangers, everyone left as friends after this single-table, multi-course, multi-hour meal. I will be back.
Such a fun and memorable experience. The chef always puts unique perspective on each course. A must try for the finger lakes/Geneva!
Unbelievably fantastic experience. We had the private tasting and it exceeded all expectations. Amazing experience overall!
The service and food is always great!
Food was the best Ive ever had and the drink pairings were spot on. Highly recommend
The chef was so good about managing our food allergies and communicating everything in the menu to us. It is rare for us to be able to enjoy such an amazing meal out, and I cant wait until we get the opportunity to return.
Calling this dinner would be an understatement. This was truly a food and wine experience.
A fun and delicious evening. I think the chef was trying to put to many flavors on one plate. A few of the courses consisted of to many complex flavors. I say keep it simple. Over all a fun evening.
One of our best meals. Food, wine & service over exceeded any expectation. Do not miss.
Top notch dining experience, worth every penny!
Great experience at FLX. Went to Table, Provisions, and the Dano’s Pop Up. All were phenomenal. Great food, ambiance, service. J. J. and the whole staff makes for a memorable experience. Will definitely come back next time in FLX.
Appear to have a 14 person max per seating, with 2 or 3 seatings a night, only open on select nights. there is a long waiting list to get in.Menu changes based on what is fresh. 5 course chefs choice meal. The chef and sommelier make each selection in to an adventure around the world.Definitely worth the wait to get in.
This place is a MUST. Need to book in advance. Definitely do a wine pairing!!! Absolutely fabulous.
We had a fabulous experience. Such great service, people, wine and food!
Sorry...I dont get it. You are compelled to sit at a table with people you dont know (or dont care to know) covered with wine bottles with price tags-as for the compulsory menu, are we supposed to be impressed with the butter shaped like a rubber ducky? the under-cooked red kidney beans that would most likely end in a terrible stomach ache or worse? the under-cooked duck that is way too gamey? Is this the rave? Am I supposed to be impressed with this? Or am I more likely underwhelmed by the psudeo-minimalistic interior - the over the top presentation of chopped corn on the cob and olive oil appetizers - or by the fact that at the end of the dinner they spent five minutes trying to lure you into the neighboring establishments by promising a roasted marshmallow? Nope- I just dont get it. Nor will you.
Personal attention, outstanding wines, entertaining food preparation, well worth the price. Add in bit of humor for those celebrating special occasions!
This place was awesome. Excellent food, excellent service, cool concept. I found the wine l pairings to be excellent. Please patronize this restaurant, it is really desrving of being strongly supported.
What a wonderful way to celebrate our anniversary. Thank you for the amazing wines and scrumptious food!
I have never been to the flx table, but I am giving two stars because I couldn’t even get a call back or email to make an appointment. I had called and left a voicemail during the hours they said to, and I emailed as well. Nobody got back to me until about 10 days later, and she hadn’t answered any of the questions I had about the booking. Was so disappointed in the response time that I won’t be booking here ever. Was very unprofessional
OMG, BY far one of the best dinners in a long time! Food was excellently prepared and the staff worked in perfect unison!Cant wait to go back!
Everything and more of what I could conceive for a very special occasion experience. EVERYTHING thoughtfully prepared and superb. Worth every penny and learned a lot about wine. Book ahead
Man, this place is an experience. It has a 12 person table with two seatings a night. The chefs cook in front of you and introduce every dish you are served. There is a sommelier to help with beer and wine pairing.
Quite possibly the best dining experience ever! Each course was fabulously presented and the staff was so engaging and helpful. Very much recommend!
Worth the wait. Very eclectic menu. As a professional chef, I am always interested in creative ideas. Ans these were creative ideas

Amazing experience
A must in the finger lakes. The intimate restaurant seats 12 and the menu changes daily. When we went the duck was out of this world but the ‘market board’ is the dish we can’t stop talking about. Fresh fruit and veggies with dips and spreads you wouldn’t believe. An amazing experience

2021-11-09Original, creative, sensational food experience in a relaxing, fun setting. It is amazing what the team was able to create with such a small kitchen. I tried foods I never had before and was blown away with the taste of the pairings they made. It was a 2.5 hour duration that flew right by. I highly recommend enjoying this experience. Definitely worth a special trip!

2022-04-10I really enjoyed this restaurant. I firmly believe you have to do the wine pairing to get the best experience. The veggie platter was some of the most freshest and delicious vegetables I have ever had followed by amazing dishes including the duck! The wine was amazing we did the Notorious which featured great vintage wine. Great service too!

2021-06-22Hands down best dining experience Ive had recently. Fantastic food, wonderful ambiance, and such lovely staff. We really enjoyed the wine pairings with dinner as well. Great selections in the provisions shop too! Were already planning to come back back in the fall - cant wait.

2021-07-27We had a wonderful dining experience at F.L.X Table. Our host was very friendly and professional. The snacks at the beginning of the meal were the best and so were the oysters with caviar. The sommelier paired some great wines with the set dinner. Love the seasonal and local ingredients used for the meals.

2021-10-03Once in a lifetime experience! This was a bucketlist outing for Kim. I was able to get reservations for her 50th birthday and WOW did FLX Table live up to the expectations. From our pre-dinner glass of wine to the toasted marshmallows on the way out the door, this experience brought a whole new level to first class. I will add to this review once we get home and I can type on the computer as I would be shortchanging the experience another way.

2022-06-27I can’t say we ate dinner at F.L.X. Table last night because the experience is more than just dinner. This is an experience where you learn as you eat and drink if you choose to do so. We showed up a half and hour early to enjoy a cocktail before our seating. They had a half a dozen cocktails as well as several wines and beers on the drink menu. When you’re called to your table, they seat you and then explain to the room what the menu is for the evening as well as what the different wine and beer pairings are you can choose from. If you drink, just do it. They’re good at it. It was a 5 course meal with a lot of local produce and meat. The food was prepared perfectly and it was over the top delicious. The courses are small but fear not. You’ll be waddling out the door. I can see where this place would not be for everyone because you don’t have a choice in what they serve you. I’m lucky because I love all food with the exception of vegetable oil. They will ask you about food allergies so don’t worry about that.

2021-06-28I cant say enough wonderful things about our dinner at FLX Table. Like others have mentioned, the staff are so warm and welcoming. The food is outstanding and so fresh. The aerated hollandaise sauce was unbelievable. I highly recommend dinner at FLX Table. It was a great experience.

2022-06-20Cool atmosphere, friendly and obviously passionate service. Delicious food, though slightly small portions. Maybe I am jaded (and very lucky to drink interesting and old wines on the reg) but I did not think the Notorious pairing on the night we went was really worth the price.

2022-07-10We sat for the Super Secret Wine Shop Dinner ($300/person) and upgraded to the Super Freaky Wine Tasting (additional $165/person.)Our compliments to the sommelier. It was a well selected unique wine combination and his insight and passion truly added to the experience. The wine selection was worth the upgrade — bravo!However, the broader experience was eclipsed by the dining service. We were disappointed and don’t think the price tag was worth the food.Our honest observation: the concurrent $89 diners took away the majority of the staff’s time, resulting in a mediocre experience for the “exclusive secret diners”. This ultimately lead to an awkward pacing of the meal.The beginning was stalled leading to a rushed latter half. What should have been hot appetizers were served cold, and the main courses being prematurely removed.There was also some issues with the kitchen, for example, the tzatziki was off and made with sweet vanilla yogurt and the chef confirm the mishap of ingredients. However, there was no remedial measures taken for said mistake.The dining portion of the experience did not live up to our expectations and we believe can be improved. We think the complexity of the palate is there. What dampened this whole experience is the service.

2022-04-11We had a lovely tasting menu with wine pairings from Finger Lakes wineries. Each course was well conceived and the pairings were perfect. I love not only the well executed food but the creativity with items like chicken hearts.
