“You know it’s going to be good when the table comes stocked with molasses which pairs so well with the buttermilk biscuits. The little girls’ favorite was the garden fresh corn on the cob. The only thing better than the food is the service! Thank y’all for making us feel at home.“

“The Flavor District is an absolute gem and a must-visit for anyone who loves great food and a vibrant atmosphere. From the moment you step inside, you're greeted with a lively energy and an incredible variety of delicious options that make it truly a five-star experience. This was our first time going and we were completely blown away. But the real star of the show was the stuffed turkey leg—it was so good it felt like Thanksgiving came early! Each dish is a masterpiece, and the hardest part is choosing what to eat! Beyond the fantastic food, the atmosphere is simply electric. It's the perfect spot for a casual lunch, a fun night out with friends, or even a date. The staff is also incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, always willing to offer a recommendation or share details about the dishes. The Flavor District is more than just a food hall; it's a true destination for food lovers. I can't recommend it highly enough. You won't be disappointed!“

“Ate at their food truck today in Apex, NC. Food was excellent! Spicy enough to feel it, flavorful; the chicken was incredibly juicy! I got the 4 meat sampler platter and everything I had was delicious. The ox tail is particularly good. Plus, the staff were super friendly and helpful! Very cheery and passionate about their food. These guys are great!“

“Great place great music. It’s an after spot so it get lit after the clubs let out. We ordered wings, macaroni & cabbage to go & when we got home to eat our food the food was good but very very salty we couldn’t even finish it. We paid $15+ for some high blood pressure food that we couldn’t even eat what a waist.“
