So first of all the location gives you the vibe and feeling you are in a real southers style local type restaurant where they greet you with open arm. And thatis exactly how i was welcomed, never have i walked into a restaurant where the staff greets you with a handshake and "Good Morning sir". The chemistry the staff shows towards one another is a thing of beauty, while they weren't waiting on anyone (it was a slow morning with 1 take-out [me] and 2 tables seated) they were dancing and clowning around as if they have been friends all their lives, which is something i enjoy seeing specially from a place serving food. If a person is happy and cooking, guaranteed you're eating good. The food..... oh the food 🤤 i had the shrimp and grits with eggs, toast and a side of salmon. I'm sure i ate with my eyes but not an ounce of regret runs through my body. The shrimp had a small kick to it but I'm a fan of spicy and hot and even if you aren't too fond of spicy I'm sure it managable. I really couldn't wait and slightly burnt my mouth with the hot grits but it was too good to even stop and let it cool and I'm not even mad at that. Definitely...
Read moreWish I lived in the area so I could go eat here all the time. I'm a sucker for some soul food and Flava's is serving up traditional comfort food menu items all at an affordable price. Went with friends in which we ordered the Shrimp and Grits $10.99 and the chicken waffles. I adored my shrimp and grits---portion size was phenomenal, the fresh flavors were all there, the cheesy grits cooked perfectly and my scrambled eggs much better than most breakfast spots. My boyfriend ordered the chicken and waffles which he was not too fond of considering its price and how it came out. He felt that the waffle were very good, liking the cinnamon, but didn't care for the choice of wings on top. Most chicken and waffles come with chicken breast to make it easier to eat together which is the only reason he disliked it. He did love the fried chicken though and when I tried it the batter was delicious! I would probably go back and get the wings but not to eat with the waffle since I'm not a sweets in the morning type anyways. If you're ever in this area go get yourself some great soul food at...
Read moreSo disappointed. Flava’s wasn’t flavoring this morning. Order smothered chicken and a smothered pork chop meal and the gravy taste like it came out of a pack, eggs taste like it was poured from a carton and half the pork chop was bone. They haven’t been the same since they left Perrine. They don’t use butter, the margarine didn’t even melt not even a little bit. Bread so stale it fell apart just from picking it up. Grits tasted like water, I had to re-season the grits and gravy. When Mr. Bell oversaw everything in Perrine this place was the best down south, hands down. Idk who they collabed with when they re-opened in Goulds but this was my second and very last time wasting my money on them. They don’t even have anywhere to sit and enjoy your food so microwaving it is inevitable. Quality is pure trash...
