Floyd’s Kitchen

Sorry to hear it but it was reported in the Republic that Floyd’s is closing.

Wow!!!
This place is now closed…
The place is an empty shell.
:(

Bacon wrapped shrimp were incredible as was the chicken, bacon ranch flatbread!!!
This could become my new favorite place… And they have a great happy hour!

Went there last night with tholady and another couple. The waitress — when asked about some of the menu items — proclaimed to be a vegetarian and didn’t know anything about any of the items.
The salads were good; the drinks were generous for the price.
The entrees were complete losers. I had pesto shrimp pasta. Bland is a word to describe a taste that leaves something to be desired. When something has no taste, I’m not sure what word would describe it. I loaded it up with pepper to the point that everyone at the table was sneezing. That didn’t help, so I asked for some red pepper and at least I could taste that. But at least I ate.
My wife ordered the jerk chicken. It was so dry that she couldn’t even cut it. She is not a person who makes scenes, so she didn’t say anything. When the waitress cleared the table and asked if she wanted a box for her totally uneaten entrée, my wife said «no». Could an uneaten diner be a clue? I don’t know, but we are voting with our feet and not going back.

Excellent little restaurant. Took a few moments to have some lunch. The chicken noodle soup has a generous amount of pulled chicken and veggies. The noodles were colored rotini. There was nearly too much black pepper but very worth the $ 5 for a bowl that came with a few pieces of flat bread. I enjoyed every bit of it. I really enjoyed the crème brûlée. $ 6. That desert was on the money. There is a full bar, fine wine and a few good beers too. Ashley my server was very cool.

We stopped by after soccer practice — right around the corner SERENO PLAYERS AND PARENTS — and got a meal to take home! Delicious, quick and easy. The kitchen was quick and the servers got us rolling in no time! Much appreciated after a long day. Thanks Floyd’s!
Food: Ruben Sandwich and Meatloaf, both excellent.

Eh, the food here was just okay. I would definitely prefer to eat somewhere else for the money.
The service was friendly, and the tater tots were good!

I had high expectations with all the 4 – 5 stars review, but this place didn’t deliver. We had the meatloaf («best-​selling» per waiter) and the chicken kabobs («great choice» says the waiter). The kabob are big chunks of white meat that is tasteless («not seasoned well» says my taste buds) on a bed of veggie swimming in watery sauce. The meatloaf maybe best selling this side of town, but I had better home-​made.
The service is attentive and quick, but the food needs to go back to kitchen. Just keeping it real.

I work across the street from Floyd’s and I am a big fan. When I’m looking for a dependable meal and good service in North Phoenix, I come here. Our salon used to order out from Floyd’s which is how I first became obsessed with the food, but recently I have been dining in. I’ve seen live music there, sat on the patio, and always have patient servers when my girl friend and I park it there for a few hours.
The only thing hurting this place is that not alot of people can see it squished next to Sprouts! Definitely choose this place over the chain restaurants in the area, you will NOT be disappointed. Try the bbq pizza or spicy chicken parm sandwich, those are my go-​tos.

What? Who knew this amazing restaurant was here. This place was so hard to find, but we drove around the area persistently to eat here once we saw the reviews on Unilocal.
It’s pretty small but very impressive. Service was great, food was better, prices are really reasonable.
My friend got the meatloaf — it was encrusted with bacon and he really liked it. I got the berry salad with granola — amazing. Fresh, colorful green leaves and ripe berries.
It looks like this place might fill up pretty quickly & there aren’t a lot of tables, I have no clue if they take reservations but I’d recommend them. Great place for dinner.
We were happy with all the main dishes so we also got crème brûlée — it was good but not the best, I’d probably skip dessert next time.
I’ll definitely be back, I want to try the pizza/​flatbread, looked so good.

I hate to give such a cute place so few stars.
The hubs and I met up with a couple this past Tuesday, they had heard great things about Floyd’s and we are always up for trying something new, so off we went.
When you walk in there is no real hostess, a girl kinda yelled from across the room to sit where ever we wanted. So we did.
We started off with the spinach and artichoke dip. Not one person in our group liked it, in fact we sent it back. It was BEYOND watery and had zero flavor. Very clear that it was frozen spinach that had not been strained.
I ordered the turkey burger. I took two bites and was done. The thickness and texture and taste is all off. I did however get tatter tots as my side and those were damn tasty!
Hubs got the Philly and ate all of it, said he liked it.
One of our friends got the Apple and asparagus salad, she said it was tasty.
The other friend got the shrimp scampi, again a very very watery dish. He ate it because he was hungry and was worried about sending a second dish back. But he complained about it the whole way through.
At the end the waitress brought us out a deep dish cookie on the house for the bad artichoke dip, which was cool of them and it was very good.
The waitress we had was as cute as could be and really nice.
The place is super cute, the patio area outside has a lounge vibe to it and I bet is wonderful at night and in the fall.
I feel like there are way to many items on the menu which is causing lack luster dishes to go out. If they paired down the menu and had more of a focus food wise they could be really good.

I have since been back to Floyd’s Kitchen, this past weekend in fact for a solo lunch before I did my weekly shopping at Sprouts and it did not disappoint once again.
I had the special which was a salmon filet with white wine cream sauce, capers and tomatoes served over a bed of roasted potatoes and grilled asparagus. The fish was cooked PERFECTLY which is a big deal to me. I’ve also decided to try and replicate the sauce in my own kitchen because I couldn’t embarrass myself in a restaurant by licking up the sauce on the plate so I’ll have to do that in the privacy of my own home. The potatoes were cooked and seasoned beautifully and the asparagus was what you would expect in a fine dining establishment. If you know how to grill asparagus then there’s no worry about screwing it up.
I’m concerned about this place though. Both times I’ve been it was kinda dead. There was a small stream of traffic that came in spurts but nothing like I would expect for a Saturday at lunch time. The price isn’t unreasonable for what you get but its possible people are expecting a much cheaper menu because of its location. I just hope the strip mall curse that lingers over this Valley of the Sun doesn’t strike this little restaurant gem. Those of us who don’t like spending our dining dollars on chain food really appreciate these kinds of places so here’s to hoping word gets out.

Last week was my first visit to Floyd’s Kitchen. Overall, the broad menu, great service and terrific happy hour offers made me a fan.
They did a nice job with décor, especially with the patio seating (although cushions on the seats would have been even better.) The weather was perfect, so it was a great day to sit outside.
We arrived just before the end of happy hour, which was great, since the deals were nice. $ 5 for a very nice zinfandel. We ordered some very flavorful hummus (even better than Pita Jungle’s) — 3 varieties — which had ample hot, flavorful pita triangles. My husband ordered the shrimp ceviche, which I thought was bland, but he liked that it was fresh and light. It was also a very large serving.
Megan, our server, was attentive, knowledgeable and friendly. She didn’t miss a beat and made great recommendations. She helped us choose a french dip-​type sandwich for the husband and chicken piccata for me. Very large servings at fair prices. Oh, and they have tater tots! Who doesn’t LOVE tater tots?
There really isn’t anything negative I can say about our experience. The service was nice, the ambience relaxed and we took a lot of food home. We definitely plan on going back with the rest of the family.

This is an amazing little place! Cozy, neighborhood restaurant across the street from PV Mall. We have been here a handful of times. Everytime we come here, we love it! You choose your own table which is great. It is nicely decorated and there is good music to enjoy. The staff is always friendly and very helpful with their recommendations.
I always get the Fresh Berry Salad with Chicken ~ it is delicious! Their cherry granola is homemade and the salad has just the right amount of Feta chesse. The Berry Viaigrette that comes with is sweet and tangy and I can’t get enough! My husband usually gets either the Rigatoni and Meatballs (which is heavenly) or the French Dip. We have taken friends here and they are big fans too. My daughter got the Grilled Cheese, which she loved. When our server brought our food he commented that the bread didn’t look big enough. I didn’t think anything of it since she isn’t a big eater. When she was done eating (every bite), he brought her out a whole new sandwich :) We were not expecting that. She brought it home and were so impressed.
Try Floyd’s Kitchen if you haven’t already. It will quickly become one of your favorite places.

I wanna love this place, but I’m not sure I can.
I love that Floyd’s is a one of a kind, family owned and operated restaurant. It’s an adorable little place set in a strip mall, but much more appealing once you step inside the door.
The menu is comfort food, my favorite type of cuisine. The Bacon Mac & Cheese appetizer was really great, hot and crusty. But hubby’s meatloaf fell flat, giving it a «so-​so» rating. It had some sort of weird seasoning? I had the Cuban Sandwich with pork, ham, cheese, and pickle on rye bread. The menu claimed it had whole grain mustard on it, but I couldn’t taste it. So my husband grabbed a squeeze bottle of bright yellow mustard from a nearby table and that made it better.
The prices are a good value and even more so if you take advantage of their coupon on restaurant .com.

We came here because of Unilocal.Due to high expectations from others Unilocaler, we felt this place is very disappointing. We ordered the Seabass and what we got was more like Mahi Mahi or Cod. Seabass is supposedly very rich and juicy but the fish tasted dry and had absolutely no flavor. We told the server and she asked the chef and insisted that it is seabass from the supplier. Perhaps the chef is ignorant. we felt cheated. The jerk chicken to be fair is not bad but definitely not really that great.
We hardly even finished the food.

Now this restaurant I can get into.
We hit it for lunch the other day after reading Unilocal reviews. It’s in a strip mall, like a lot of places here in Phoenix which was a surprise because at noon, the strip mall barely appeared to be open. The restaurant was just filling up. As soon as we walked in the door the woman greeted us with a nice big hello and a «sit wherever you’d like».
The table had a BBQ chicken pizza, meatloaf, salad and chicken salad sandwich. Everything was good, service, quickness of food to our table, the refilling of the water and our check was on time. One drawback was the male waiter or possibly the owner (?) who was talking to tables, using the word «dude» all the time he was LOUD and I couldn’t wait for him to leave the floor.

Let me start by saying i agree with all my fellow Unilocalers… who think this place is simply great. The wife and I visited this establishment today for lunch and we were treated to quite a dining experience. We walked in at about 3:15 we were the only one’s in the establishment… and quite frankly it is a very small but comfortable space… so being alone felt quite romantic even if it was the middle of the day.
The menu is great… i had the Chicken Philly Sandwich with Tator Tots… while my wife had the Philly cheese steak sandwich with fries. We spent only about 22 bucks… and the customer service was outstanding. We will be returning to this establishment without a doubt… and i definitely know now while it was rated a 5 star establishment by most of my fellow Unilocalers. Eat, Drink and Be Merry my Friends!!!

BEST Crème Brulee in the world. well at least so far. that I have tried. It had banana and the bottom was lined with chocolate. Pure unadulterated heaven!
Came here via the Urban Spoon App. otherwise I would have probably never stumbled upon this gem. Shrimp cocktail fresh and excellent. Mahi mahi tacos, tasty! Service quick, friendly, efficient. Tiny little place. size of a large living room. walls cluttered with badly framed movie memorabilia and such. 2 Large screen TVs, nice lighting. Its like someone turned the man cave into a dining room. lol.
I will most certainly be back. if just to force the crème brûlée on all that I know.

I think with time this place will be pretty awesome! The food was pretty good for the most part and the service was great and extremely friendly. We went on a Friday night and the place was packed with what seemed like very happy diners.
Highlights. the pot roast was better then my mothers, ask for horseradish. The lamp chop special was great and a super bargain at 18 bucks. The hummus was really good but the pita was a problem, was very hard. Though I told the server and he brought out a fresh batch right away, was good.
All in all this place is going to be decent after they work out a few kinks in the kitchen. Considering that they have never opened a restaurant before I think that they are doing a pretty good job though they need to QC the kitchen more.
FYI, 18 bucks is the most expensive thing on the menu though most itms are 12 and under. seriosuly cheap eats!
