Florida's Kitchen

Amazing food. My husband and I shared the Florida Platter. So much food and it all tasted great. Our server Laura was so sweet and friendly. Very attentive. We will definitely be back next time we are in town. Great southern home cooking.

Catfish was excellent. Salad and fries OK. Tammy does a good job as waitress.Everyone was ordering desserts which were homemade but we were too full. Will come again.

OMG!!! I you have not eaten at Florida's then you are missing a treat!!! The food is great!! The staff is very friendly and you get a good amount of food. Don't let the appearance fool you!! This place will not disappoint. We both had the fried chicken lunch special and it is the best chicken I have ever had. The sides were good too. Get the greens and you must try a piece of cake. The slice of cake was huge!!! We even got to speak with Florida her self!!! If I could I would have given this place 6 stars!!!

The best ribs in town! I love them! Florida's also offers an extensive menu, from shrimp and catfish to chicken fried steak, of course bbq, and the most delicious home made cakes!

I have finally found a place in Livingston, Texas that is not fast food related that I'm looking forward to going back and trying more of their foods. This place has too many options. If you have a hard time making up your mind, this place will make you go nutty. The prices did not make my frugal meter squeal, so that's an added bonus. This place is not open every day, so make certain you check their days of service. As of the time of this review, they were open Thursday through Saturday.I showed up on a Saturday and saw they offered Saturday only menu items...so I had to order a couple of those. Burnt ends and banana pudding will be my Saturday only options. They even have a low priced seafood platter...so let's do that one as well. I'm not about to try to convince you to eat here! Just show and see for yourself. I've never had frog legs on a seafood platter before. Portion sizes are definitely in proportion to pricing. Burnt ends was seasoned well and moist. The dipping dish with the broth brings the ends to another level. The banana pudding IS NOT from a box...that's definitely homemade. You can tell the difference in taste and texture. Just know this...I asked Miss Florida to come out the kitchen and give me a hug. She was nice enough to do just that. I'll definitely be back to this place often because they have so many other menu items I want to try. Word of caution: Getting the lemonade confused my taste buds. I was expecting a yellow drink. What came to my table was a pinkish drink...so I expected pink lemonade. Maybe that lemonade was a guava lemonade...or maybe a peach lemonade...my taste buds couldn't decipher my sweet drink. I had several glasses of it! The staff is really nice and welcoming which is why I am okay giving this place 5 stars.

Versatile menu, with something for everyone, large portions, served timely & opriced well!!

I came here with my parents and thoroughly enjoyed our food order! I have been visiting/living with my parents in the Lake Livingston area, but we only recently learned about this BBQ place in the region- what a bummer! We should have known about this place since my family and I love checking out family-owned businesses in the Lake Livingston area. Once you enter the restaurant, it gives off a dinner, homemade-style vibe. The staff greets you immediately with a smile and seats you at an available and open table. You can order your drink immediately while you look over their menu to pick your food. It was my first time here, but my parents have been to this place like 2-3 times already, and they already know what they want to eat for lunch, while I, on the other hand, am open to trying new food and sharing food, so I did just that. I highly recommend this restaurant if you are in the Lake Livingston area and are looking for an excellent spot for BBQ! You will not be disappointed, so give this place a try!

"Hidden Gem in Livingston, TX A BBQ Lover's Delight!We discovered a true hidden gem for an early dinner in Livingston, Texas today. This unassuming spot might not catch your eye from the outside... it's got that well-worn, classic small-town BBQ joint look - but don't let that fool you.The restaurant has that lived-in feel that speaks to years of serving up delicious meals. While it may not win any awards for modern decor, it more than makes up for it with its mouthwatering food and warm hospitality.I opted for the chopped beef sandwich, which was flavorful, and piled high. The fried okra was a crispy, golden delight. My friend's BBQ ribs were fall-off-the-bone tender, accompanied by creamy potato salad and savory baked beans. Oh and the BBQ is exactly the way we love it.Portions were generous and the friendly staff made us feel right at home. We couldn't resist trying their desserts - the Italian cream cake and German chocolate cake were both so good and HUGE!What really sets this place apart is the outstanding food quality, genuinely friendly service, and unbeatable value. The prices were surprisingly reasonable for the amount and quality of food we received.If you're looking for a no-frills, authentic BBQ experience with food that speaks for itself, this is your spot. It's a reminder that sometimes the best culinary experiences come in modest packages. We can't wait to return and try more from their menu!"Marian LaSalle from DigitalOfficeAtHome.com

Food is excellent! I don't eat there as often as I should I Brit bar-b-Euro good especially the ribs! One of. My favorites. Is called I thikSly's bowl, it has beans onions, corn bread! It is a huge bowl and if lipsmabkin good.

I had the ribs. They were like eating beef jerky, dry and chewy. The sauce didn't add much flavor. So why the four stars? The catfish is amazing. Thick, juicy, tender fillets coated with the perfect ratio of cornmeal, flour and seasonings, then fried to a light golden brown. And the coleslaw was very good too.The place itself is a ramshackle dive, like a house with several additions. The server was great, fast and efficient. The iced tea was amazing too. Just stay away from those ribs I tell you. Unless you like them that way.
