Floyd’s has gained a reputation for their unique “Mahoney” dish. When you order it, you relinquish control over what you’ll be served, as the kitchen creates something entirely based on their inspiration. No substitutions or special requests are allowed; simply let them know if you prefer breakfast or lunch, and let the kitchen take it from there. Once you’ve finished your meal, you face an intriguing choice: either pay the original price or take a chance by flipping a coin for a shot at double or nothing. If luck is on your side and you win, Floyd’s covers the cost of your meal. However, if fate sides with the house, you’ll be paying double the price for The Mahoney.
