This was an absolute GEM of a breakfast experience for us, and perfect to cap off our visit to paradise with a terrific last meal before flying home to our corn-fed midwestern life. Starting off with the ambience, the place is SUPER cute, decorated with a color theme I call "sherbet whimsy" with a smattering of smiling emojis. Our party of 6 was warmly greeted at the counter and immediately seated together. We started off with their delicious coffee, some hot & some cold...all excellent! The menu is fairly extensive for a breakfast joint, so the server gave us some good recommendations & said everything here is house made. Wow! OK... so we all got different menu items, and despite being warned about the HUGE portions...we could not have fathomed how large they are, but the prices do reflect how much food you're going to get! The breakfast burrito could easily feed four people. Our lone young male in the group - who might have a tapeworm based upon his ability to devour gigantic amounts of food - did his best, but could only consume about 2/3 of it. He said it was amazing, especially when paired with their delicious house made hot sauce. Two of us got two different bennie breakfasts, and raved about the hollandaise, the stretched "biscuits" & the fried chicken. Despite being smallish young ladies, they put a good dent in their meals. One of us got the outstanding corned beef hash, and thankfully generously shared with yours truly!! She could not eat even half of her meal, so I was glad to help out! :) The corned beef hash is not your standard ground-up version from a can. It is house made, with larger bits of potato, corned beef, onions & peppers. They get a perfect scald on it & serve it up with eggs & thick sliced perfectly toasted/buttered toast. My picky husband got the chorizo scramble with a side of fruit & really enjoyed it. I got the fantastic avocado toast with a side of potatoes. Everything was perfect... the thick slices of toasted wheat bread adorned with melted cheese then topped with very fresh & perfectly ripe avocado slices. I didn't prefer their scrambled eggs & should have gotten them fried instead, but it was still perfectly good, especially when dipped in their hot sauce. Thankfully my husband shared some of his fresh fruit, which was ripe & good. I dipped the pineapple into that hot sauce, which was delicious together. The place is very clean, including the bathrooms. The clientele were a menagerie from various demographics...retirees, blue collar workers, bikers, vacationers; everyone was pleasant & seemed to be enjoying their meals. This was one of the better meals we had during our trip, and definitely the best breakfast by far. It's so close to the airport, too. I'm so glad we got up early enough to be able to fit in a stop here before catching our flight home. read more

Just started with a bloody Mary and the cinnamon roll doughnut, both fire! Waiting for our breakfast. Staff is welcoming and fantastic. Biscuits and gravy benny was amazing, get extras in your potatoes like onions and peppers. Ruben was delicious, fries were a little plain but still crispy and tasty. Breakfast burrito was gigantic. Homemade hot sauce is a must. FK (Foster kids) has a great mission to donate to foster care and feed everyone. Best breakfast I've had in a long time by far. The decor is pretty cool artwork and even though the outside looks slightly rough the inside is recently updated and super nice. read more

FK Your Diet - Punta Gorda - Reuben with potatoes - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Punta Gorda, Florida

Amazing food and service. This place was recommended to us. We went here on a Saturday morning and found out we should have arrived at opening time. They have amazing cinnamon rolls we are told. Got here to order some to go with our meal. Someone had come in and bought them out. Now we did get some shareable donuts a chocolate, a lemon and a bacon maple. The lemon we needed to eat right away but it was still pretty good. Now I had the belly buster burrito, this is over 1 pound of food here, I had to take it home to finish. My wife had the biscuits and gravy with extra gravy for her hash browns and again enough for a second meal. Our son finished his chicken fried steak and said he was stuffed. Very large servings and well priced. read more

First look told me they had a blast painting the interior! Alexis greeted immediately and pity sit where ya want kind of place. No franchise or corporate money here - just excellent home cooking and spirit! This day eatery has been on our radar since arriving, but we were waiting for the right moment. My wife had eggs Benedict and I had the Ruben; it was break-lunch!! She offer a hot sauce and I gotta say - it was the bomb. Try it out Yelpers. Special thumbs up to them for the host and freaking awesome food! We'll definitely be back. read more

FK your diet Punta Gorda. Heard so much about it so we gave it a try yesterday. Big mistake. Greeted and seated nicely. Asked for coffee. It came out but nothing else to offer to put in it but non-dairy creamer. YUK. We both had the biscuits and gravy meal. Gravy was very bland and the sausage chunks had zero flavor. I grabbed a biscuit and it flaked. Not a real biscuit, i think that they were Grands biscuits out of a tube and they were not whole biscuits they were 3 halves. The eggs were OK. The potatoes were nicely cooked but again very bland. $36.00 plus tip, to me seemed very expensive. Lesson learned, next time I'll make sure we have cash and go to the Smokehouse. read more

FK Your Diet - Punta Gorda - French Toast 1/2 Order - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Punta Gorda, Florida

This place is great ! To be clear, I love upbeat atmospheres and friendly people. My wife and I met 4-5 people while there. I think it's the entire staff including the owners. We went there specifically for a well-reviewed Reuben sandwich and were not disappointed. I always look for restaurants which make their own corned beef in house rather than using store bought slices. This place fits the bill right down to the Thousand Island dressing. We both ate the same sandwich and we definitely will be going back. read more

FK Your Diet - Punta Gorda - Reuben sandwich, YUM! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Punta Gorda, Florida

It was a quiet Monday morning here. The staff was very welcoming and the inside is of the restaurant is colorful and spacious. They have a great menu. I had the eggs with sausage and. HOMEMADE gravy and potatoes. They said the gravy was not from a can and they were right!! Wow, a restaurant that makes their own gravy, just like my Grandma's!! The food portions are outlandish! All 7 of us had to go boxes. Everyone loved what they had. We wanted to try the cinnamon rolls but they were out so we got the donuts instead for a take home treat, delish! I love the concept here, "FK" as in foster kids. The story of the owner being a foster kid and not knowing when he would have a decent meal and wanting to make certain that all who enter this establishment have that decent, plentiful meal.... They will indeed!! This is a great place to be a regular and to bring family and friends when they come to visit. Kudos FL your diet!! This place is a home run!!! read more

Great food with huge portions. My husband and I always split an entree and still bring home leftovers. Servers are always friendly and make you feel like they are happy to serve you; even when the place is packed. Quality food and reasonable prices. Family friendly read more

On a road trip with my husband, we happened to cross paths with this amazing brunch spot. Full of colors and very welcoming staff. Food was delicious . We ordered the avocado toast and French toast dishes, expecting the same we had at other breakfast places, including Naples area , and it was a surprise when we saw the presentation , tasted the flavor profile. Definitely the WOW factor was included in the whole experience. Great job, keep going. read more

Best breakfast burrito and mimosas in Punta Gorda! Staff is also awesome!!! Try the raspberry mimosas!! Mango also!

The food was AMAZING!! 10/10 recommend this place. If I could give a higher rating I would! The service was fast and very friendly and the food was top tier. It vibes of this place is so cute and truly feels cozy. We stopped here on our way out to the airport and we will forever stop here now! read more

What a great spot! Samantha was our server today! She said she was new but everything was perfect so,she's doing great and gave Awesome service! Now to the food. WoW get ready to eat or bring it home. Very hearty portions of homemade scratch food! The corn beef hash looked and smelled delicious, the unbenny my mom had also was fantastic! I cannot think of the name of my sandwich but it was the rolled biscuit with eggs and meat, I did not have meat but added avocado (which is extra as well as potatoes) other sister enjoyed the endless mimosas with Country fried steak, which she has never had but said it was great. Definitely give this gem off of I-75 in Punta Gorda a try. The interior was Very Happy! I love it read more

The service was great and the waitress was great at keeping cup filled and informative on the business.

I came across FK Your Diet while in Punta Gorda for work. My coworker and I were caught off guard by the name and had to stop in. As the name states, literally say goodbye to your diet! Everything is homemade from scratch and the portions are HUGE. The waitress told us that about 90% of the customers always require a to-go box. The ambiance is extremely casual. It's colorful with positive statements on the walls. Their mission statement is to give back to the community, so every customer is assisting a family in need, supporting foster children, and those affected by Hurricane Ian. I ordered the biscuits and gravy, and after eating one biscuit I had to throw in the towel. It was so fluffy and delicious. I'm intrigued to try their other menu items. read more

Long wait with limited waitstaff. Eggs Benedict was average at best and ham was poor. American fries were the only thing preventing a 1 star review. read more

Stopped in here because The Waffle House was packed on a Sunday morning and this place had some tables open. Our server came right over with menus, coffee and water. We ordered. Then we waited. And waited. And waited. Apparently, they only had one cook this day. And he wasn't going gangbusters in the kitchen. After our long wait, I must admit the breakfast was delicious. French toast, country fried steak with eggs and gravy, eggs with biscuits and gravy were all on point. They lost a star for the long wait. However, I will return when back in the area, hopefully they'll have a second cook by then. read more

Fantastic, this was such a fun, new experience. Had the best family breakfast and were so full we skipped lunch.

Second time at FT Your Diet. As before, the food preparation was phenomenal, and portion size was exceptional. Our young server was inexperienced, but two more seasoned servers jumped in to make sure our visit was satisfactory. I have to subtract one star because I was a little bit disappointed. Since I don't eat meat, I ordered the Traditional Benny and asked to substitute the ham with 1/2 of an avocado. I was told there would be an upcharge! Instead, I asked for the ham on a separate plate, which I took home for boyfriend or dogs. A shame they couldn't do that one little substitution, because if I asked to hold the ham, as I did last time, they would have charged the same. Kudos to Anglad (not sure of spelling) who presented very well for the restaurant by being friendly and attentive. read more

We went to this place with no expectations. By the way, FK stands for Foster Kids! The owners of the multiple restaurants perform many philanthropic activities and a significant amount is focused on foster kids. They were instrumental in feeding people during hurricane Ian. Having said that, the breakfast is excellent. Each breakfast feeds at least two adults with good appetites. I had the traditional breakfast which included 3 eggs, ham or bacon, fried potatoes and toast. EVERYTHING was MEGA size. Also included were home made condiments such as jelly and hot sauce. NOTHING in this place spoke to fast food. They are open for breakfast and lunch. They have locations in Ft Myers, Punta Gorda and Cape Coral. All family owned. Servers are just as friendly and responsive as the food is great! Everyone needs to make a trip to this place. Let's support our local businesses. read more

Best service in Florida this trip!! Leslie was absolutely FANTASTIC! My only regret was not looking at the menu earlier during our visit to Florida. I would have eaten here everyday! The best homemade donuts ever! And the breakfast sandwich was so much we shared it and still had some leftover. Make sure to try their own hot sauce, it isn't hot but the flavors are to die for! Would love to take a bottle home. By far the best place to have breakfast on Punta Gorda! Thanks for the wonderful experience. read more

Fantastic Food. Great Service. Fun Atmosphere. I highly recommend this spot. Sitting in a Hotel room in Punta Gorda, I found this hidden gem on Yelp. You MUST get the doughnut to start. I got a super Yummy cinnamon/sugar . Damn thing melted in my mouth. Oh My! Hey and the coffee is good and strong. No burn taste you get a lot of places. I ordered the Homemade corned beef Hash. Has to be the #1 that I have had. (Including my own). If you like CBH, this is a must. Came with 3 eggs. For Pete's sake, I couldn't finish it! The homemade Fuzzy bread with strawberry butter was a fun Breakfast dessert. Very good bread/pancake thing that they make on site. Wow! I am bookmarking this place. read more

It was t bad but nothing memorable. It wasn't busy in a weird way. Nothing was really bad but when you have enough left over for leftovers and you don't feel the need to take them with you .... You know the food was mid. They aren't too far from Punta Gorda airport so they have a convenient location read more

I'm hoping we encountered this restaurant & staff on a bad day in light of the positive reviews. Those reviews are over a year old. Waiting to get someone's attention, a frustrated young man in front of us asked a server setting a table for a large group that came in after us to help, as two other men left in a huff stating they were never served. The first server was very nice, explaining the menu, taking our order. We asked for 2 doughnuts- 1 now, 1 to go, 2 breakfast plates. The doughnuts never came, my husband's order was wrong. That was straitened out, doughnuts delivered after the meals which were flat & greasy; not a doughnut by my definition. The server never came to ask for refills, etc & we had to flag down a second server for the check, which was wrong. We were charged for extras we never received. Corrected, bill paid, & decision to never return. The food was ok, bacon was the toughest I've ever had! The place was so loud too- something the second server agreed was a problem. read more

Stopped in for a mid morning breakfast and was able to sit down right away without any wait on a Saturday morning. Did some reconnaissance on the menu and was happy to see some tasty meals. As soon as we sat down, we were asked for our drink order and the coffees were at the table in no time. For a breakfast place, this is always a win in my eyes and a 5 star place can easily turn into a 4 star if the coffee wait time is unreasonable. Our party of three ordered the Biscuits and Gravy (Scratch-made all day long, not from a can like those other places! fresh jimmy dean sausage gravy served over fk flaky biscuits and fried potatoes, topped off with two eggs any way), the Cinnamon Roll (You will have "Dougabetes" after this decadent hot cinnamon roll covered in our homemade warm cream cheese frosting), and the Belly Buster Breakfast Burrito (One pound or more! burrito made with your choice of sausage, bacon or chorizo, scrambled eggs and fried potatoes & cheddar cheese on a 14" tortilla, bring on the veggies! Add more pizzazz to by adding fresh veggies (onion green pepper, tomato, mushrooms, avocado, spinach, jalapeño to you burrito for an additional charge.) You can dial up the heat on the burrito. I ordered an 8 and love hot food and was disappointed I did dial it up a bit more. All in all, it was a great breakfast. My only complaint that the portion size was humongous. Being on vacation, bringing home leftovers is not really an option. While no doubt the majority of people love large portions, I would have not minded a smaller portion at a small cost savings. But when you walk into a place called FK Your Diet, you pretty much know all the rules go out the window. If you look at the menu and find something you like, pretty sure this place will be a home run. read more

Just gross. We stopped for a little breakfast, I had the worst cinnamon roll of my life. My husband had some egg dish that he didn't enjoy either. Service was great. Ambiance is cheerful.

Hey Yelpers, still in Florida and here is something to try for breakfast. FK your diet and the food is amazing and filling. These are large orders. We are a group of 3 and remember this is made to order. We started with the dessert first so we got 3 Doug-hes a maple bacon, chocolate and a lemon. Talked to the waitress and decided to get these to go. For the main course I order their breakfast burrito with sausage and mushrooms and eggs and potatoes are included. This is a pound of food and I got thru half. Side note there is a challenge to eat this in one sitting. My wife had their full biscuits and gravy it also came with eggs and country potatoes. She barely got thru half. I do suggest to order get a side of gravy to cover everything else. My son got the country fried steak that also came with eggs any way and country potatoes. Now they were out of the cinnamon rolls which we wanted to try and found out you needed to be here early on the weekends. Now the service was slow but it is worth it. Add this to your try list read more

A lovely restaurant with character! We stopped here on the drive from Miami to Tampa. Kristen was very friendly and took good care of us. The food was incredible - which is saying something as we had just gotten off a 5-day cruise. The Rueben and the donuts were definitely the highlight of our order, and the burrito was MASSIVE and delicious. read more

This place is AWESOME! We stopped here around 1:30pm on a Monday afternoon. It had quite a few people seated. We were greeted quickly, and our server (Jen) was lovely. She was new and treated us like great friends who she had known forever! The menu was on the smaller size, but HOLY PORTIONS. They were HUGE. I'm super picky about chicken and waffles, but I saw it on the menu and had to try. I loveeeeeeed it!! I also tried some of their strawberry butter on the waffle and it was so sweet and flavorful. Next time, I would definitely want to try the grown up grilled cheese because two people in my group ordered it and it looked amazing. Leslie and the hostess were also great to us during our visit. We are visiting from out of town, and we will DEFINITELY be back!! read more
