    As always flavor table did not disappoint. They provide you a homely southern comfort that is unparalleled. Match that with the gracious service provided by one of their host named Willie, and there is no better place to eat your southern breakfast on the west side of Los Angeles. Now you wanna talk about warming your stomach on a cool morning, try the shrimp and grits. But don't forget to chase it with the catfish and eggs. And let me tell you about those biscuits, they'll make you slap yo Daddy!

    Food is really good, especially the biscuits. They are absolutely amazing. It can get pretty busy, and there isn't a ton of seating. Service is okay but not very attentive and it can take awhile for food.

    Peach French Toast

    The Most Amazing Experience. Food was amazing, Service is spectacular. 10/10 will be coming back. Staff is super nice and helpful.

    I stopped by on a Saturday morning, it was about a 30 minute wait. The service was not that great. The waiter barely came to check on us. Didn't bring any napkins refill our coffee, Karif, etc. The food was good. Street parking can be challenging. Definitely need to read the parking signs.

    Had the pleasure of eating some delicious food at this restaurant. Pluses +++ Food is delicious, helpings are big, prices are reasonable, staff very nice, bathroom was clean. Minuses-----parking is not so great. Street parking only and on a wide busy street, small on the inside, not ideal if you have a large party, only open until 2pm Specifics!!!! The Flavor Table is on a busy street , very easy to miss no real signage to single it out. We had a waiter that was really nice but he went out of his way to let us know he wanted his tip in cash not on the card was very vocal . I found this unprofessional, off putting and actually felt a bit of anxiety at the end worrying about if I had enough cash for his tip. There biscuits are the best taste like my grandma's homemade biscuits. The restaurant is not fancy not very decorative at all really. So you definitely would be going just for great eats but not atmosphere. I would definitely go back.

    Ditto added a little cheese grits

    If the review were solely based on the food, our gentleman server, who may have been the manager or owner (I could be wrong), then I would rate Flavor Table a solid 4 and some change. I tbelive that his name is DJ based on the receipt. However, because other factors can make or break service ratings, I must also consider them in the equation. The hostess have zero personality and not welcoming at all. She was a bare minimum type of hostess. We were also overlooked originally by another server that took a table ahead of ours, though we arrived and were sat first. Okay enough of that, let's get into the food. The shrimp and Catfish combo OMG. Let me preference I am from Florida, South Florida and we cook seafood well, especially with grits. Our order was cooked to perfection. The portion size was massive. Three people could have easily shared that meal. Yes, I brought my leftovers home with me back to Vegas and the leftovers were equally divine. Everything was excellent from the fish, shrimp, Country potatoes, cheese grits, scrambled eggs( which I don't typically enjoy), and that got dayum biscuit. My ggaawwwdd that biscuit. I'm going back for the biscuit alone and I don't eat much bread. The setup at the restaurant was cozy and I enjoyed how everyone talked to people they didn't know across tables. I miss that type of vibe. The customers understood the assignment. I'll be back whenever I return to Cali. Thank you, Sir, for making our experience above my expectations based on observations before being greeted by you. Customer service is everything to me, and you delivered, though your counterparts did not. Glad I still gave Flavor Table a fair shot despite my first impression.

    Amazing food. Great people, servers, service. Felt like I was at home. Happy people, great smiles.

    Service was amazing, but unfortunately, the food was not. I got the short ribs over potatoes. grits was really bland and not creamy. The short ribs weren't seasoned at all. Actually had cold grease in them, but the crabcakes are really good. Presentation is nice on everything and they give you more than enough food. Coffee is amazing.

    In town for All Star Weekend and this spot was amazing!! Nice vibe,clean, great customer services. Our waitress "that Girl" is a vibe... she was very attentive on this busy Friday!. Parking street but this California, wait time worth it, The came out hot, fresh, chicken season to perfection, shrimp and catfish golden but next time I ll get fish hard (Ms girl here) . Now that bacon was so crisp. I had the mix drink which was also delicious.

There is a small seating area, and the seats weren't particularly comfortable, but the space seems intended more for a quick stop rather than a long sit-down meal.

I loved how they give you an option to upgrade for peeled shrimps. I did this but sadly they don't give you the receipt back so wouldn't know how much more.

No CASH I ordered around 11:20pm and the girl allowed me to pay cash although she had already cashed out the registers. Although I did have to speak up for myself which I don't like because I know others would've left it like that. I called 15 mins before going to the restaurant to make sure they did accept cash and who ever picked up said YES. BUT then when I got there she said she couldn't accept my cash. I told her what happened about my call and the drive I did so she helped me out and accepted the cash. This is why I'm leaving it as a 4 star review. I didn't like that the person who picked up the phone call lied but the girl who helped me out with my order was kind turned it around. Ambience : The restaurant is small inside around 2 tables I believe but you can always take food to go and it's clean inside. But I can't say much about it because I did take it to go.

    My friend and I discovered Joyce two years ago and we have been back for both brunch and dinner…read moreseveral times since. It never disappoints! I couldn't believe I'd never reviewed it before so I wanted to do so following another delicious brunch at Joyce today. From the moment we sat down, the service was impeccable. Our table never lacked for tea, water, coffee, etc. Foster took great care of us (and shout out to Nick who's also provided amazing service to us there). The Bloody Mary was the first thing to blow my mind. It was absolutely delicious and maybe my new favorite Bloody Mary in LA. It made me wish I'd Ubered. But I also had some wonderful hot, Earl Grey tea. I love how they present it to the table. We covered a lot of ground and no notes. We had the caviar with crème fraîche and truffle kettle chips, a seafood platter that , the fried green tomatoes - which I will order every time I'm there, and the Dungeness crab and rock shrimp Benedict. The dining room itself is beautiful--comfortable, stylish, and inviting. When you look around the room there, it feels like every table in there is celebrating something. In a city overflowing with brunch options, it's surprisingly rare to find a place where the food, service, atmosphere, and pacing all work together so seamlessly. It was one of those meals that reminds you why dining out can still feel special.
