Duval Flavor is hoping to spice up the restaurant scene on Jacksonville’s southside.

They say it’s all about connecting the city of Jacksonville through food.
“By Duval Flavor, we said with our slogan a taste of 904 it would be something we could broaden and connect with not just this area of town, which is the Arlington area but just around Jacksonville,” said Griffin. “We want to make sure we provide excellent customer service. Exceptional quality in our food. We want them to say we’ll be back tomorrow or later tonight.”
The Griffins love cooking and turned this dream into a reality, in less than four months.
“People are getting discouraged right now. Thinking I can’t, you know, follow my dreams. I can’t open a business. But we’re here to show you, you can. We did it in less than four months. All you have to do is keep striving. Don’t be afraid to ask questions. If you know someone who has a business, talk to them. Get all the information. Do your research. Shop around because that’s going to be a major part to make your business successful,” said Griffin.
