From the good people of Pink Flamingo, Floyd’s Bar and Grill is bringing a healthy dose of American BBQ culture to the sad kebab stands of Strasbourg Saint-Denis.

In front, you’ll enter a dark, handsome cocktail bar. But make your way back and you’ll suddenly find yourself in a bright and airy dining room, almost like a chic Route 66 pit stop.

The menu is nostalgic with only the best of the US: grilled-corn chowder, prime rib (for two), Kansas City ribs, pecan pie, bourbon bread pudding, and cheesecake… Who says Americans don’t make good food? There is just one “so-British” exception: the giant roast they serve up on Sundays.

The Oysters Rockefeller are a must-have. For the more adventurous, we recommend the “Rabbit & Waffle,” which would make Roscoe’s wish they had thought of it first. At Floyd’s, chef Jamie Young is aiming for one thing: glory cooking. Does he succeed? Hands down, because those Kansas City ribs are finger lickin’ good.
