  We review the construction of gravitational solutions holographically dual to
N=1 quiver gauge theories with dynamical flavor multiplets. We focus on the
D3-D7 construction and consider the finite temperature, finite quark chemical
potential case where there is a charged black hole in the dual solution.
Discussed physical outputs of the model include its thermodynamics (with
susceptibilities) and general hydrodynamic properties.
