Best Authentic Restaurants in Bloomfield

The Flying Monkey is a great place and fun! Food is delicious, a very cozy ambiance—one side of the restaurant host great bands and musicians on certain days and the staff’s very attentive! This is a must visit for any food lover!

The manager is amazing! Staff is very tentative. Love it!

Food is as as usual expertly prepared On our visit so-called mission figs appetizer were not indeed mission figs (they’re black; this one was brown) and frankly a little stingy. There were four quarters of a tiny brown fig spread across a bed of about 10 arugula leaves, two large sugar encrusted walnut chunks and 3 large lumps of ricotta. Really. Just 1 fig cut into quarters. Not sure what the problem was, but if the kitchen stock was low, why not just take them off the menu until availability improved. Anyway, just a disappointment We had an early reservation since the noise level here can be problematic. Nevertheless the waitress seemed too tired to be at work that late afternoon. Normally we have great experiences here.

Our food was fantastic, start to finish. The pacing was perfect. Our server was so friendly and attentive. The low to reasonably moderate noise level made for easy conversation. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

Loved the food the service and the company. The music was a bit much and distracting.
