Foodys! Foodys!! Foodys!!! The Name Says it All! What a Fun Find for Phenomenal Flavors!

I am beyond euphoric that I found Foodys!

Read on....

Stepping in from the Florida scorch, I was treated to a cool retreat. Right off, you can see the place is sparkling clean! Tile and bright. Wonderfully light. (Even the rest rooms! A great insight!)

As I'm escorted to a table, I begin to feel a tingle in my toes. That feeling starts to take me over. Without a doubt! I'm rockin' out! I'm in a good tunes attitude! The sweet sounds of the 50's are uplifting my ears and making me smile. Yes! Great music and good food. What a simpatico symphony!

My Foodys guide du jour was the effervescent Monse. Another interesting name, this one tagged on a lovely tawny señorita with her acento mexicano. I believe she listened better and communicated more than any server I've ever encountered in the restaurant business. Her welcoming posture really put me at ease.

About the food...

Recently, I've been in a Greek Salad mood. Good to eat and good for you. (You might have noticed from my recent reviews - lots of salads). You guessed it! I ordered the Greek Salad! With the house dressing.

What I was NOT ready for? The veritable pinnacle of perfection! A climb to the peak of Mount Wow!

It's hard to imagine a meer salad invoking pleasing aromas nose high. But that is exactly what I was immersed in! The garden-y scent of fresh produce, the spices AND the Feta! Feta! What cheese could compare with the intoxicating brew contained within that humble crumble? To say Feta is my Favorite is an understatement.

Feta is made from goat's milk, sheep's milk or a combination of both. Those demure non-moo juices create a cheese that draws you in close. Close. For a bite. A taste. A whiff of wonder. And I was very very close...

It's few and far between that I find a Feta so flavorful. THIS Feta was so creamy smooth. With that happy way it coats your throat, wrapping every morsel in a jacket of jazzy pizzazz! I could soooo taste the goat's milk essence. WOW!

Everything about my premier visit to Foodys was fabulous! Fantastic!

Whether I'm in Town or Country, I've found a place that puts me in the right STATE! A state of happiness. A state of awe.

A Foodys kind...

Had driven by this place multiple times but never really thought of giving them a try till yesterday. Oh and soooo glad that I did! It was so delicious that I felt like I needed to get some more today. My waitress was Andrea, she was super nice and attentive! Both times we visited were for breakfast and boy was it good! One of us had the "Hangover Platter" which was HUGE. It consisted of a 4 egg sausage omelet, home fries, a big side of biscuits n gravy. The gravy was even enough to smoother it over the omelet. I, personally had an Ham & Cheese omelet with added onions. Home fries were so soft n tasty. Omelet had the perfect amount of American cheese n lots of yummy pieces of ham. When i say their portions can be easily shared, im not just saying it, to just say it. Also, to our surprise, each omelet was served with a nice piece of watermelon 😋We also ordered their Waffles with fresh strawberries. The waffle was crisp on the outside yet nice and soft in the center. The way it should be! Not soggy like some other places. I was a very loyal fan of a Diner on Dale Mabry close to the stadium but unfortunately it has gone downhill throughout the years. I can confidently say that this place will be my new local GO-TO breakfast place. They also have lots of other interesting looking options for lunch and dinner that I will be trying in the future. But for now this review is based on my BREAKFAST experience and I will be updating once I try one of their other delicious looking creations. Overall this place is a MUST to try. I was lucky enough to meet the owner or one of the owners himself. He was very hands-on in helping the waitresses with their tables and I even caught him asking other tables how everything was. Very humble guy for sure! You can definitely see that he cares for his customers and wants to do everything possible to make sure your visit is one...

Yesterday we were looking for a cool diner experience and we found Foody’s on Yelp. Since it was rated very high we decided to make the drive to Tampa for a late lunch. We ordered the Foody’s Sampler appetizer (fried mozzerella sticks, jalapeño poppers, onion rings served with 3 sauces, marinara, ranch and Foody’s sauce), the French Toast Burger Bacon Cheeseburger served on French Toast) with a side of potato salad and the California Skillet (3 eggs, seasoned potatoes, avocado, cheddar cheese, onions, peppers, ham and bacon). The portion sizes were sizable. The Foody’s Sampler was ok, the mixer tells sticks were tasty and prepared well, the jalapeño poppers seemed like they may have spent too long in the freezer(but then they do at many places we have been) the onion rings were ok but could have been a bit more crisp. The French Toast burger was lacking taste. The French Toast was tasty but the burger Patty, while thick lacked flavor. I’d order the French Toast minus the burger if we were to return. The potato salad had a really nice flavor and I would certainly order that again. The California Skillet was ordered without ham and bacon. While it was sizable, it really was lacking flavor. This was even more disappointing as the ingredients listed “seasoned” potatoes included. There was no taste of seasoning. The restaurant is a good size place housed in a well kept older building. The servers and manager were all friendly and attentive and we did not call attention to our disappointment. The food items just lacked flavor. Since this restaurant has a high average rating, this may have just been an off day for...
