I thought this was just ok. We have flank steak with some regularity and find that unless the steak is marinated for a day or so, it can be somewhat tough. I did marinate this steak for about 2 hours. The sauce was tangy and tasty and the recipe was quite quick and easy. I just don't think this sauce is the right sauce for this cut of meat. I would definitely make the sauce for chicken, however. A mixed review for our family so we'll probably not make it again.
