Many folks get orders to go, so it's not a fancy dining room, and has picnic-style tables. They put generous helpings on the platter, too.

Brisket was tender, ribs fell off of the bone, and sausage was sliced and crispy around the edges. Good sauces at the table as well. And, it's adjacent to a meat market and store. My wife noted that their ground beef was a better price than local big grocery stores. They also have a large frozen cooler with all sorts of goodies including Cajun. We are going back.

It's a rustic, casual little place but they've got everything you want: all kinds of steaks, chops, roasts, chicken, sausages, and more. Best of all, if you're too lazy to do it yourself, they're smoking their own meat for lunch right next door. I'm heartbroken that I'm just finding out about this now...I could've been eating brisket and ribs every time we shopped around here. They've also got smoked turkey, smoked sausages, boudin, and all kinds of goodies by the counter for you to grab. I'll be back for more steaks and chicken to grill, and pulled pork sandwiches to stuff into my face. Their business is meat, and they know their business.

Thursday I was standing in the middle of the road waiting to cross when a cop pulled over: "You okay?" "Yeah, just trying to get to Papa Delta Blues." He let me go. Legend. Worth every soggy shoe. Night 1: Brisket sold out after 8pm. American Airlines had only fed me one biscotti all day so I was feral. Waiter recommended the ribeye with mushroom sauce -- the good stuff from the Pappas family legacy, where the cows apparently have better résumés than most people. It arrived and I almost cried. He even sliced a piece to confirm medium rare like a steak sommelier. Sides were ridiculous. Went back ordered ribeye again. Did it plain. Did it with onions. Creamed corn changed my life. Staff is suspiciously nice. Brisket never stood a chance. This ribeye (and the walk) owns me now. Official Webster steak pilgrimage site. 10/10 would walk through a monsoon and traffic again!

For starters, the waitress Tamra I believe was the name, she was completely checked out on all customer service qualities. She was short and pushy on ordering. Once the food arrived I asked her was the gravy beef based (I'm not eating beef) she said gravy is just gravy, I asked is it pork based or beef she stated gravy doesn't blend with a stock it's just gravy..... I ordered the mahi mahi and the fish was extremely overcooked! It was like pulling apart a wet tablet. My friend ordered chopped steak and that wasn't a chopped steak pretty much an overcooked hamburger patty with the same mystery gravy that was given to me, plus the onions were still raw. The calamari has a decent taste but I guess we were the first ones to order because the grease was too hot and burned the order to a crisp. Save your money and go some other place. Happy Yelping

With Texas being, well…read moreTexas, the outdoors environment in a rainy part of the day attracted a lot of mosquitoes to the area and was a little bit irritating for me while I was eating. Besides that (mainly out of control for the restaurant), though, I did find certain aspects of the restaurants to be not as great as I'd want it to be. As a lover of crawfish, I was really excited to get to try here, but I found their crawfish seasoning be a bit too salt heavy without exploring any of the other sides to crawfish. The Pook's sauce, which I had hoped to remedy this, was also a disappointment to me since it didn't seem to complement what was going on. The shrimp and crab, on the other hand, despite me not always enjoying the two at restaurants, were probably my two favorite parts of this experience. Complemented by the melted butter, I felt as though these two were miles better in quality and taste compared to the crawfish. Service was decent. They had run out of crackers for the crab so we had to wait ~20 minutes before we could dig in. Atmosphere was nice and more suited for large groups and conversations than a smaller 2-3 person group, though they did accommodate tables for these smaller groups. Overall, a little bit disappointing for me, but I wouldn't be against eating here again if I'm looking for a place to share a seafood boil with. There's just so many of these restaurants in the area that do a similar thing that small inconveniences might place this one lower on my to-go list.

I ordered the Fisherman's Stew, a generous combination of calamari, octopus, shrimp, fish, and more. It was excellent. Although it presents like a soup, the texture is far richer and more substantial. The deep, robust tomato base gave it an almost Italian character--layered, comforting, and full of flavor. We also tried the chimichurri oysters, which were fresh, clean, and beautifully briny. The salmon--ordered medium--and the one-pound portion of crawfish were equally impressive. The salmon, in particular, was cooked to perfection--tender, moist, and well-seasoned. To be honest, the exterior of the restaurant is not especially impressive. At first glance, it gives the impression of a small, casual spot where you might expect overcooked, overly salty, fried seafood. That assumption was completely wrong--and I found myself quietly apologizing for the misjudgment. Inside, the atmosphere is inviting, cozy, and clean. As for the service, our waitress was adequate--neither especially warm nor unfriendly. She wasn't particularly fast, but she wasn't slow either. She simply did her job. While the service wasn't remarkable, it certainly wouldn't keep us from returning or recommending this place. Floyd's is a genuine hidden gem--one I would gladly visit again.
