This place is amazing! My 1st time eating from here and definitely won’t be my last. I ordered (2) plates; pork chop, mac & cheese and cabbage, no pic because once I open my plate, it was over lol! I ate every single bite and enjoyed it. The 2nd plate was hamburger steak (2 patties) w/gravy, yellow rice and green beans, each meal comes with cornbread which was nice and moist. The atmosphere was so nice, clean and inviting. Very friendly folks inside and great service. It smelled delicious in the restaurant! I knew this was going to be a great experience. The portion sizes are large and the name of this restaurant speaks volumes! The food was seasoned to perfection, each bite reminded me of a good home cooked meal. I’ll definitely be back to try more food and some of those delicious looking desserts! 5-star restaurant experience easy! These folks are cooking up some good soul food, food so good brought back memories of my Grandmother’s kitchen. Thank you Taste the Flavors...and did! I’ll be back

Traveling from Little Rock, Arkansas. Hungry and on I-26 headed to Charleston, and we googled this little gem! Great ratings. Not too far off the interstate. Let’s give it a go! Wow! Cheryl and the ladies had the best spread of soul-food hot and ready as soon as we walked in! Looked so delicious! How to choose!?!?? But we came for seafood and that didn’t disappoint!! The flavor was so good! Every bite of our meal from the cornbread, green beans and grilled scallops to the shrimp boil was fantastic! Got a Key Lime Cake and Butter Pecan cake to go! Do yourself a favor and stop at Taste the Flavors!! This restaurant is soooo good!!

It was my first time eating here. I ordered a plate with 4 sides and 10 piece drummets , that were cooked fresh. All the food was really good. They were worth the visit and my money. I definitely recommend them.
