Taste The Flavors

Don’t get me wrong, the food is phenomenal but my absolute favorite aspect of Taste The Flavor is the incredibly outstanding customer service. From the initial greeting when you walk into the restaurant until you leave, it’s quite literally like interacting with the jovial & funny cousins that you always want to be around. This staff is second to none. Their genuine kindness, easy nature, quick wit, & honesty is the epitome of quality customer service. My mom & I immediately felt like we were enjoying a meal with family. We have officially adopted the staff as family! Absolutely love it here & we will return to enjoy great food & fellowship with our new “cousins!” Now let’s talk about the food! This is soul food done RIGHT. Too many times, a “soul food” restaurant lacks actual soul…aka love & proper seasoning. That’s not an issue at Taste the Flavor. The food is seasoned perfectly & the portion sizes are beyond generous. It’s like having Sunday dinner at Big Mama’s house. The vegetables (collards, cabbage, beans, etc) are usually cooked with meat so if you are vegetarian ensure you asked about the preparation before ordering. I asked & was informed that the vegetable selection was cooked with turkey on that day. There are several options for vegetarians to choose from. Major kudos for this because vegetarian options at soul food restaurants can be hard. **I think I may have developed an addiction to their Hoppin John & potato salad lol** Oooooh I would be remiss if I didn’t talk about the speciality lemonade drinks! OMG absolutely scrumptious I had the apple flavored lemonade (it’s green) & I don’t remember which one mom had (it’s red). I may also have developed a special attachment to the speciality lemonades as well!

I heard about this place from a family member and this is my first time eating here and it was great. The food was great. The service is great. The atmosphere was great. I loved everything about this place. The ladies at the front counter were very Friendly and nice would definitely go back here again! Also, this is a great place if you’re In the town of Orangeburg and looking to get some really great seafood, I encourage you to stop on by and see for yourself.

OMG where do I start! Y’all want good food come here. I came from Daytona Beach heading back to Ohio wanted some soul food and found this GEM! From the employees especially Cheryll such hospitality and food made with love. Definitely will be back!
