Order from uber eats and it was quick getting here. I ordered the quick bite breakfast with a side of sausage patty. Orders an orange juice what was supposed to be freshly squeezed but it was the Tropicana bottle lol. The food was okay but the portion was good plenty of food. Next time I think I'll order the shrimp and grits since it has good reviews. read more

Did not disappoint! We ordered the chicken and waffles, and the shrimp and grits platter and everything was full of flavor. The chicken wings were crispy and well-seasoned, paired perfectly with the fluffy waffles and syrup. The shrimp and grits were buttery and rich with just the right amount of seasoning, definitely hit the spot. The portions were generous and the food was hot and fresh when we got it. You can tell they care about what they're putting out. Definitely a great spot to grab some soulful breakfast down south. Looking forward to going back! read more

Great chicken and waffles! Quick and fast service!!! Would definitely go back! Keep it up!

The service was like coming HOME...and I loved it. Literally felt like family and this was my first time here. Now for the food...I got the chicken and waffles, with grits and eggs and added sauteed onions. The chicken was NEXT LEVEL good...and the waffles came with powdered cinnamon I believe and was good without syrup. The sauteed onions were freaking EPIC a long with the grits. The eggs were about average...it wasn't bad...but it was world class...but eating the whole meal as a collective... simply AMAZING. My only gripe is that this food is so good, I wish they had an area to dine in but unfortunately it's takeout only. If you are in the area you HAVE to try them out... YOU'RE WELCOME read more

Oh my God flavors let me take some but they ain't never lie about that name flavors is the name of that place flavors is amazing flavors taste good. Flavors is different flavors is just oh man. I just can't believe it. I had the salmon bites pasta and I also had the chicken wing dinner. Oh man unbelievable. The price is there is very reasonable not bad at all again there's another place that's in the hood so they say but I got told you before the places in the hood usually tastes the best right but very respectable community. Are you going to get food? They're actually help you out if you get lost but definitely pasties definitely try. read more

Met the owner behind the counter. The food was delicious, and service A-1. We were in town in June for a birthday celebration all the way from Dallas Tex. The food was delicious and portion size great for the price. I would absolutely recommend this spot. There are seats to sit down and wait for your order, we ate at the park around the corner. read more

came in and was greeted by the gentleman in the front, small take out spot and it smells so good inside, quick & nice service! southern hospitality is always the best, and amazing food! the shrimp & grits were sooo good, my first time ever trying the dish and they've definitely got the Flava!! the gentleman asked me if I would like to add cheese to my shrimp and grits and it did not disappoint (: trying the chicken & waffles next, thank you guys! yummy yummy soul food read more

The place is a takeout restaurant with seating while you wait for food. The service here is great, the person at the register made some great recommendations and food came out quickly. Got the chicken and waffles which were amazing. The chicken was crispy and super flavorful. I also tried the shrimp and grits-- so good, a bit on the oily side, but very flavorful. Scrambled eggs that came with it were cooked perfectly. read more

A pretty good place for southern breakfast/brunch. I had the chicken waffle, and was given a choice of belgian or regular waffle. I tried the belgian version, and gosh it was fluffy light and so delicious. The chicken is crispy on the outside and tender inside, though some pieces are overly salty. My husband ordered the pork chop and he didn't enjoy it as much, finding it too dry and tough. The price is very reasonable and the service friendly. I'm interested to be back to try their other dishes, especially the shrimp and grits. read more

So this review is going to have some constructive criticism because I see potential in this place. I love the vibe of the staff. They seem like really nice guys. The grits were solid, I enjoyed the grits and eggs. the most. My constructive criticism comes in with the meat items. I think they should invest in more quality cuts of meat and keep the seasoning to the chicken simple because it was a tad too salty, but overall this place has potential. I think they just need to put in alil more effort. read more

I found this place thanks to Yelp, so please allow me to give back, in the form of this review. First, you need to understand that I hate brunch. I have the bottomless and the shitty takes on breakfast food but more expensive and I hate people who brunch. What I do love is breakfast. Simple, pure breakfast. No hot takes. No drunken girls wooing. Just people grabbing sustenance for their day without drama or sunglasses on their head. Flava's is almost the distillation of a perfect breakfast place. They close at noon, so you can't even get anything with "unch" in the title. They have a simple menu of proteins and eggs and sides. I got eggs, sausage and homefries. The eggs were good. The sausage was real big sausage that was not some weak small breakfast sausage. And the home fries were literally perfect. Far too many times, home fries are simply slices of potato with some crappy onion that sit on a grill for 2-4 minutes, which is long enough to get them slightly warm, but not long enough to crisp and this is a war crime. The home fries at Flava's were small tiny pieces of potato that were all perfectly crunchy and crisp. Like they cloned the best home fry and then shrunk it and made tons of them. This restaurant makes me want to petition Yelp to create a 6th star. read more

Really friendly and energetic service. They show you your take out order before you leave. Had: -grits (nice but not mindblowing) -wings (juicy and crispy, lots of seasoning) -liver (a little firmer / earthier than I like but enjoyable) -toast (buttered and...it's toast) -home fries (good, but I think they're better on a plate than take out) -sausage patties (flavorful) -belgian waffle (it's true, they do cinnamon it up, but I gotta say I loved it) I'm a fan, I'll be back, and I'll order what I liked and skip what was decent but not a must. I've seen some reviews mention that the appearance of the place made them drive on by. Not only did I flag those reviews, but people, seriously...dark skinned folks scare you? You've never been asked by someone for change? Bring a friend with, say no, and get over it. read more

Just wow! We found Flava's from the great reviews here on Yelp. It was one of the best places I have been for breakfast/brunch. We were greeted right away and seated quickly. They have everything from chicken and waffles to shrimp and grits and most meats come with eggs and toast. I had the shrimp and grits and it was beyond good...like slap your mama good! Honestly better or equal to some I've had in New Orleans. It was so flavorful but not too spicy. The grits were just the right consistency and the shrimp was perfectly cooked. The hubby had two eggs over medium that were perfectly cooked, bacon that was super thick sliced and well done but not burnt, toast and home fries. The fries were crispy on the outside and tender inside and seasoned just right. Toast was great..buttered on the inside with options of Smuckers jelly. The manager greeted us when we arrived and checked on us after food came and visited for a minute and let us know they also offer catering. We felt very welcomed and our waitress was great. You are supposed to order at the counter but she took our order. (They do a good bit of take out orders). Our ticket was $24 for two adult full breakfasts and drinks. The place had plaques and accomplishments on the walls and I want to learn more of the history of them when we go back..we definitely will go back! read more

Came to this local gem after seeing fairly good reviews in yelp. We were on our way south to visit family and wanted to try something different. This place really hit the spot. It's a no frills place tucked deep into the neighborhood so I'm assuming it's a "best kept secret" situation. Food was great. It's a place I'd consider going back to if/when in the area but I'm a bit far north for it to become a regular spot. Serves were attentive and seemed to appreciate the business. read more

This place was good. I guess if I wasn't familiar with similar establishments, this would be something new. It's a southern style soul food breakfast spot in South Dade. I had a fried pork chop, with eggs, home fries, and toast on the side (see photo). It was good, but if you've ever been to a waffle house or anywhere that serves southern style breakfast, you'd be familiar with this. I guess I'd have to return to try other menu items; everything was good, it just didn't separate itself from anything. Lastly, their table menu doesn't have any prices, only the giant menu in the middle of the restaurant. Not sure why they do this, but that's what it is. read more

Flavia's is a hidden gem in West Perrine. Parking is easily available and free. We were greeted by a kind and friendly young lady. She attended us quickly and was really sweet. The food arrived and it was delicious. I could taste fresh ingredients with every bite. My husband ordered the Salmon Croqueta & I ordered the chicken and waffles. We ate it ALL! We finished up and paid at the counter. It was delicious, fast and a wholesome environment. Definitely recommend this place to anyone who's willing to make the drive. Side note: the walls highlight the owners involvement in his community. He's committed to make his city a better place and to bridge the divide that's oppressed his community. read more

I'm writing this sitting in the parking lot of Flava's wondering when I can come back and eat the shrimp and grits here. Tonight may be?!?!? I've had some real nice shrimp and grits at other places. Flava's is the only one that has me writing a review. Don't think. Just go. Also, I got the flop, which is an usually tasty homemade beverage. I don't know what 'soul food' is supposed to be, but I'll take Flava's word theirs is authentic Soul Food. read more

This place rocks from the moment you walk in. The hardest part For many may be just walking in. Do not drive pass Flava's. For those that don't know Or have only heard the so called myth of what "love" tastes like when it's cooked into good soul food. This should be a family tour. For those that do know what love taste like then you need to make the trip and enjoy what could possibly be A "slap your mama" kind of visit. I was in town for less than a month and once I found this location I've visited 3 times and every time was an Incredible experience with great People and food. It taste like your mama is in the kitchen cooking. I started with the salmon croquettes and grits. All meals seem to come with eggs grits and toast and on my 1st visit with my man E Bell, We learned that the owners are his family members. Small world. We thought we were getting the family treatment until we watched every single person that walk in get the same love we got. This place should be called Geneva because it's so peaceful on the inside nothing but love can flow. The menu is stacked with back home style country mama or grandmama in the kitchen type foods. I could go on for ever about this place however I think you get the gist, I love it! If you are within an hour, a state or a country you probly should go ahead and put this on your must do list. This place is a sleeper and should be on the list for guided tours of great restaurants in Miami. When you visit make sure to tell Zach his brother from another mother from Maryland said hello. Give him dat for me and enjoy your meal. I particularly like table 5 which they seem to remember. I sit there and imagine I'm sitting waterfront or mountain front. This place is awesome read more

The food in this place was delicious! I had the chicken & waffles. I unashamedly didn't know the difference between Belgian waffles (thick) and classic waffles (thin) and ordered the wrong one - Belgian. To my surprise, it was REALLY good. I had both and the Belgian was the better of the two IMHO. My ONLY complaint was that there was still some feather residue on ibe of my wings. I sampled some of the food of my compadres and it was delicious as well. Don't let my one complaint stop you from tasting this DELICIOUSNESS. They lose a half a star for the chicken wing and my buddy took off half a star for not having any toothpicks. Taste is 5 stars. read more

Yelp strikes again! Took a gamble on this place because of the yelp reviews and it was worth it. Delicious simple food. We had the bacon sandwich, grits, eggs, Belgian waffle, home fries and pork sausage link. The GRITS! For sure, top 5 grits I've personally ever had in a restaurant. The bacon was THICK cut, possibly hand cut. My husband called the home fries little bits of heaven. And when mixed with the grits - soo good but a carb overload. The Belgian waffle - I am not a waffle eater because how dense they typically are but this was sooo good. Light and fluffy on the inside with a thin crispy outside. For those people who didn't stop because of the neighborhood- you are missing out. Everyone was super friendly, and we never felt unsafe so that's on you. I'm already planning my next meal there - grits, home fries and a fried egg on top! read more

Came through here off a recommendation from a friend of mines. Really didn't know this place was here; even though I work like 3 minutes away. As soon as you walk in your greeted by the staff. Since it was my first time walking in i was sort of overwhelmed by the menu. Not because its so much but because of the options you can create. For this visit, I was going to keep it simple, and went with the old try and true Chicken and Waffles. I was expecting you know the everyday of the mill chicken and waffles you get from basically any other spot. But this place was different. Now i'm not diving into the science or chemistry on way the waffles here are different but just trust me they are. Might be because of the cinnamon or the batter but there was just something about it that made that "sucka" GOOD. Well while waiting on my order to come out who I'm assuming was the Manager took the time to come talk to me. I guess he knew I was new to the spot. But yeah we had a good conversation. He even was telling me next time to call ahead the order so I want have to wait long. But this place is definitely spot on. read more

I'm not sure how long Flava's has been opened as a restaurant selling breakfast, but I am so glad that they made the decision to bring about the change. What I immediately liked about the place was that as soon as I stepped through the doors I was greeted by staff. Genuinely greeted. At least they made it feel that way. They serve up southern favorites like fish and grits, corn beef hash, sausage sandwiches, and chicken and waffles, just to name a few. There are more than enough options that you can find at least one meal that will satisfy you. I'm sure of it and you can quote me on that. So many in fact, that I was indecisive for at least 3-4 minutes as I stood at the front of the line. Finally I chose something that I hadn't had in at least a year, shrimp and grits. After placing my order and paying, I took a seat. The place is pretty spacious. It's decor the many acknowledgments of Mr. Bell's dedication to his community to include newspaper articles, plaques, and other community service/sporting memorabilia. I waited about 20-25-30 minutes for my food to arrive. The mounted television kept me entertained. To my surprise not only did I have the fish and grits, but scrambled eggs and toast as well. The eggs were cooked perfectly (soft scrambled) just the way I like. My toast was buttery and so were my grits. The flavors of the seasoned shrimp and grits meshing well. My only complaint is that my shrimp were cooked too long. Any longer I would have been eating rubber. Lol. Overall, good food, great service, and great prices. It was worth the visit. I'll be checking them out again next week. I'm thinking chicken and waffles. read more

This spot puts a whole new meaning to "soul" food! Three of us met for breakfast this morning and all of us ordered the chicken and waffles. Never in my 50+ years of existence have I ever had fried chicken as crispy, yet tender than what I was served. It was perfection. The staff was beyond friendly too. The kicker though was the shrimp and grits. I've never been a grits girl, but all that changed today!

I had breakfast here yesterday and it was awesome! I ordered shrimp and grits with scrambled eggs and toast. I really enjoyed it. The shrimp were cooked to perfection. The grits were creamy and the gravy on top was flavorful. On the way out, I decided to get a salmon croquette to go. It's a little pricey at $4.99 for one but after tasting it, I decided it was money well spent! I broke off a piece when I got in the car and it was so good I ended up eating the whole darn thing before I got home. This place serves up comfort food to the max and I left satisfied! I plan to return to try the chicken and waffles. They looked amazing. read more
