    My beautiful wife holding a perfect biscuit from Flavorshack!
    Phillip L.

    I'll begin by saying that, due to my job, I have the added benefit of traveling all over these Southeastern United States. My travels allow me to eat pretty much wherever I want, and I do. This also means that I've eaten very well, so the bar for "good food" is set absurdly high. And just to rub your nose in my good fortune, my son-in-law is a James Beard Foundation Best Chef Southeast award winner at a critically-acclaimed fine-dining establishment in Charleston that has also garnered its fair share of JBF awards and nominations (including Best Restaurant in America, two years in-a-row). Now that we've gotten that out of the way, let me tell you why you shouldn't sleep on Flavorshack in Duncan SC. First and foremost, David Robertson, the owner, will treat you like you're a new best friend. I don't believe I've ever met someone who genuinely cares about serving delicious, home-cooked food to his patrons more than David! Hands down some of the best "customer service" that I've ever experienced. To add some perspective, when my wife and I visited, for the second time, earlier today, she mentioned that she wanted a biscuit with her chicken fried chicken. However, the girl taking our order explained that they don't offer biscuits. David overheard this and quickly said he'd make some just for us. We tried to tell him that it wasn't a problem, but he insisted. After we ordered the rest of our lunch and sat down, David promptly brought out three fluffy, made-from-scratch biscuits with some gravy *and* pimento cheese on the side. And they were perfect, and delicious! While I had the Chicken and Waffles my last visit I got the Angus Smashburger this time. Both entrees checked all the right boxes. Now I'm on a mission to try all of the other items on his extensive menu. So yeah, I'll be back - probably later this week! Oh, and my wife's Chicken Fried Chicken with Blackeyed Peas and Cajun Slaw? Well, I always like to ask her to rate new things we try on a 10-scale. She's really hard to please and I'm used to getting responses like 8.5 for good meals. Today, she emphatically said her meal was a "10!" So get yourself on over to Flavorshack Hot Chicken & Ribs! You can thank me later.

    My wife told me this was a new chain restaurant, so we gave it a whirl. Menu consists of chicken and ribs, prepared in a variety of ways. You order at counter, then seat yourself. Wait less than what I expected for a new restaurant on a Saturday night. Entrees included Chicken & Waffles, Half Rack Baby Back Ribs. I like that you have multiple options for sauces, on the ribs. I was most impressed with the sides. My Black-eyed Peas were amazing, as well as the Mac & Cheese. Seasoning unique and tasty, unlike the generic canned stuff served at Cracker Barrel. Overall impressive. Price is right, managers and wait staff attentive.

    Service was good, you order at the counter, get a number, seat yourself and they bring the food to you. It wasn't a WOW on flavor

    Best service you can find! Honestly this is one of the prime examples of hospitality being great in…read morethe south! Food is great and the tea is one of the best in town!

    This is a cashier criticism. The cashiers for a few months now have been asking me if I left a tip…read moreat the table. I find this highly irritating and I suspect most other customers feel the same. If this is part of the Manager's training for cashiers it should be eliminated promptly. I am generous when service is good, but it's not any business of the cashier about how generous or not generous I am. Adults don't need to be given a "guilt trip" by the cashier about their generosity. Adults know when and how to tip appropriately without a cashier prompting them. Now, the food is almost always good, but I'll make another cashier complaint while I'm at it. Commonly the cashiers will ask if everything was okay and I usually say "yes", but if I ever say "no" which is very rare no cashier has ever offered to resolve the problem. So, why are they asking the question? If it's just meant as a cordial greeting they should find something more useful and appropriate to say such as "Hello Sir/Madam. Will this be cash or credit card?" A follow-up "Thank you." would be perfect after the bill is paid. Now, let's get to ambience. Well, it's not great, but it could be better. It's a wide open room where anyone can see anyone else in the entire building and the noise from all the conversations going on is continual. But, there is also some type of music being played all the time. The music is useless because it just becomes part of the existing noise. The Manager should re-think this and turn the music off. That would be a simple fix to help ambience. And, of course, there are ways to reduce all the people noise, but that involves an investment in seating similar to the old Capri's Italian restaurants or the current Casa Fuentes restaurant where booths have high backs and seating is more plush and sound absorbing. But, that's not likely in the budget. So, simply turning the music off is a no cost way to improve ambience.
