Nielson's Restaurant & Catering

We were in Floydada on business and were in and out.  But my business partner and I wanted a good place to sit down and meet our client.  We were recommended Nielson's.

When we arrived, it didn't look like much from the outside.  Typical small-town place and true to its surroundings, even the parking lot wasn't necessarily "sectioned" and it was loose gravel.  But don't let that fool you, the food was great. Not only that it was quick and service with a smile. Nice family atmosphere.

In fact, the food was so good that we went there for lunch also, and this time, we brought a posse.  In the morning, only three of us went, but in the afternoon, we returned with 10.  Although I should say the service was a lot slower in the afternoon.  Still we all walked out with smiles holding our bellies.  

I'm torn about writing this because the service was quite slow in the afternoon, yet I know that it was packed in there.  However, to be fair to them, they did have a "Wanted" sign posted outside and there were only two waitresses.  Nevertheless, maybe they're slower at lunch due to capacity.  Oh, one thing I liked is, I was told the owner actually cooks the food: different compared to other chains.

Nielson's has been around Floydada for sometime and apparently is a well known local joint.  As we were leaving town the next morning, I saw it was already packed with breakfast goers.  I recommend Nielson's when you're in Floydada TX.
