Flavors from Afar Reviews
Incredible food and service.
Our waiters name was Christian; he was personable, kind, and hospitable. The food was mouthwatering and had such unique flavors. HUGE portions and definitely comfort food as they state. Will definitely be returning to check out the new menu each month.

The food is amazing and so flavorful. The ambience is great. Perfect place for a dinner after a movie. We’ll definitely be back.
We made a last-minute decision to eat here before our Cinegrill movie and we're so happy we did. Tristan was knowledgeable and personable and the food was delicious. Would definitely recommend.
