“The food was delicious, but the service was terrible. I'm sure we caught our waiter (I'll spare you all the details) on an off night. Based on the food we'll give this place another shot, but hope for a different waiter.Highlights:- Generous portions.- Excellent fresh bread service.- Lobster and Shrimp Ravioli is a wonderful dish.- Lovely atmosphere.Also, ordered the Shrimp and Filet tips. The steak is almost certainly sirloin and was cooked well done. The dish had too much sauce on it for my preference but the flavor was good. It definitely paled in comparison to the ravioli.Wheelchair accessibility: Plenty of space between tables and around the bar.“

“I like a standard breakfast and for me, I went with the special All American breakfast platter with two pancakes eggs to my liking, I did scrambled eggs, home fries, sausage (or bacon or ham), and their famous grits.The pancakes were light and fluffy and soaked up the whipped butter and syrup. My eggs were scrambled to perfection. The sausage was a standard sausage patty pretty good. The home fries were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside with out being overdone well seasoned with a seasoning salt that brings us to the grits. They were creamy with a touch of salt, in short really delicious. It was nearly the perfect breakfast and I felt at home and well taken care of. This place has quite a wait sometimes which we know only means it’s really good. I’ll be back next time I’m in Morehead City for sure.Parking: In a strip mall so plenty of parking“

“Hands down, one of the best evenings we’ve had in years – spectacular cocktails, amazing menu options and stellar service. We were promptly seated on a recent Friday night and greeted by our server who immediately offered us a selection of the nightly drink specials – we opted for the Coconut Margarita and a Mescal Mojito, both were well-balanced and quite boozy. The evening’s dinner specials sounded awesome, and we chose the locally-caught Green Shrimp Pizza as our entrée, but started off with our server’s excellent appetizer recommendations; the Fried Arancini (Italian rice balls with risotto) of the day was served with a wonderfully balanced marinara and basil aioli sauce - perfectly fried, delicate and over the top. Our second appetizer, the Curried Fried Oysters, were one of the highlights of our meal – in a town where most of the seafood is imported and overly fried, Chef Cam’s local bivalves were plump and juicy, and perfectly paired with the Thai dipping sauce. This app could easily be a meal in itself! We decided to split a Spinach Salad for a small upcharge, but ended up wishing we had ordered two instead – the warm made-to-order bacon and egg vinaigrette was refined and a perfect light dressing for the sliced mushrooms, red onions and baby spinach. The meal’s pacing was flawless and our server was wonderfully attentive without being hovering. The timing gave us the opportunity to enjoy the eclectic atmosphere and watch gorgeous plates of food being delivered to nearby diners. The Edamame appetizer, served with multiple flavors of colorful sea salts was a huge hit at the table next to us. The Rosemary-rubbed Lamb Chops and Chicken Pho was also quite popular with the guests seated next to us. Our gorgeous pizza arrived hot and bubbling - the sourdough crust was perfectly charred and had a nice chew, and held up under the weight of the expertly fired green tail shrimp, garlic sauce and basil aioli. The pizza was certainly big enough for two people to share. We’re excited to return and try some of the other protein options, including the steak and Tuscan-style Shrimp pasta. Don’t miss this place – rarely do you find Charleston and Chicago-esque dining in southeastern North Carolina that offers this much attention to flavor and presentation.Parking: Street parking and a large lot nearby“

“We have dined at Floyd's several times while visiting the area and have always had a nice experience, good food and service. But, our visit last week, 3/14, was not what we expected. The food quality was sub-par, the shrimp size was far smaller than we have experienced in the past, the fish served with the fish and chips was under cooked and soggy inside and the shrimp and grits was bland. And, the prices are just too high to justify the food quality and serving sizes.Add to this a waiter who was very uninformed about the menu, was slow to respond with drink refills and other requests, and generally talked too much, mostly about himself and his girlfriend. Overall a very disappointing visit and one that will probably cause us not to risk a return trip anytime soon, sorry to say.“
