   Flavorture describes itself as an upscale restaurant. This may be true for its other locations but not DC. Highs: We were seated right away, aligned with our reservation time. Our server was friendly and attentive. The lighting, color scheme, and ambience was nice. Lows: There is no area for incoming guests to wait for their table, which means there’s a gaggle at the front door. Not ideal because there’s a four top very close to the front door and the bar is just as close. Imagine being seated at that table and being crowded by guests. You can’t enjoy your food. And it’s cold. The restaurant is small. Like very. Chair height to table height was wrong. Tables were much higher and they can’t be lowered which makes for an uncomfortable experience as you go. Menu selections were diverse but they were slightly overpriced. Vegan options tasted old, as if they weren’t prepared to order or sat in the freezer too long. We ordered lamb chops and the lobster dish. Both were elegantly plated and the lamb chops were cooked well but the lobster scampi was overly seasoned with Old Bay and the scampi was WAY too salty. Lobster was overcooked and not fully separated from the shell which made it very difficult to eat. I’m not sure we were comped for the appetizer we sent back. We were celebrating a birthday. Most restaurants comp a dessert or something but we had to ask if they did anything when the server was bringing us the bill. Unsure if they’d forgotten or what but that lil sign on the table was not enough. Especially given the price points. The blue/purple bar lighting exposed the dirt on the walls. This was not indicative of an upscale restaurant. It has potential but for requiring a $20 per guest deposit to book a reservation combined with the overall quality of the food, I left underwhelmed and somewhat still hungry.

   Food was amazing and the DJ was a vibe! Definitely coming back next time we’re in town. Shout out to our waiter as well.

   The place was very small but the ambience was very pleasant. The food was phenomenal and staff were very friendly and knowledgeable about the place. The food took the show because everything tasted so good. We went for their Valentine’s Day five course dinner. We started off with the honey rosemary cornbread, delicious and perfectly balanced. Then we had the melon salad and the Caesar salad, they both were remarkably delicious. Then we had the charred oysters and stuffed shrimp, cooked beautifully. For our main course we both had the seafood risotto and the scallops were cooked to perfection. I’ve been to five star/Michelin star restaurants and they’ve never been cooked to such perfection like this. For dessert we had the peach cobbler pudding and creme brulee cheesecake. The bread pudding had great taste but not much of peach flavor and the texture was a bit on the dryer side to my liking. The cheesecake was the perfect combination. Overall this place is a must go to. I will be recommending it to everyone and will visit again. Thank you for all you do!

   Visited the restaurant for Sunday brunch. The food was amazing! Seasoned to perfection, cooked to perfection! Service was on point, staff attentive and professional. No complaints at all. My favorites were the fried devil eggs, short ribs and grits, Bronzino fish. Only challenge was parking.
