Big portions, good flavor, great prompt service, great price. Pancakes than IHOP, waffles better than Waffle House, French toast better than… making it yourself. Will be back.

I was looking forward to trying this place as I like this type of fare! Ordered the breakfast veggie wrap and iced latte. Food came out quickly with generous sized portions for all three of us and looked great when served, but maybe we expected more because nothing really blew us away. In fact, the bottom of the wrap was soggy — maybe veggies were not drained enough after steaming? Grilled veggies would give this some flavor as it was pretty bland as well. I couldn’t eat it but didn’t let staff know… I might have if someone had come around to see how it all turned out. A gentleman came by about 1 minute after we got our food… of course everything is fine then! The mark of a good restaurant is when the manager asks how the meal WAS. It’s the only way to get the valuable feedback needed to know how the food is actually coming out of the kitchen. Friend said her French toast was delish, but could taste a hint of onion like a spatula was shared at the grill. She and I both received our lattes well into our meals and only after asking for them when food arrived. Server was polite and apologetic but might have done something like made them a large to show appreciation for our patience. I still want to like this place, so plan to go back and try a different item and chalk this meal up as a one-off disappointment… that’s possible, right? Would be happy to edit this review after my next experience… hopefully for the good!

I didn’t realize this was a counter service breakfast place. We arrived when they opened and the staff was very friendly. The fresh brewed tea was made and waiting for me to serve myself. I tried the biscuits and gravy and they were good. My daughter had an order of 2 pancakes. They were huge and looked amazing. One would have been plenty for a normal sized eater! And much cheaper to order two then the menu listing of 3. I want to go back and try the chicken friend steak.

I always look to Unilocal for great restaurants to try. We stumbled upon this place(we thought we were going to a similarly named place). It’s a great atmosphere inside — clean and welcoming. I love biscuits and gravy and am always on the hunt for«the best». Well, I will look no farther. What a great location — right by ASU. My after-college aged son had so much food due to their generous portion size. Perfect for him. It was quiet in there today — since it’s summer in Arizona and college is out of session. I’d imagine it is a hang out for the locals and college kids alike.

Very good food, it’s a shame I did not get to enjoy it. I arrived an hour before closing on a Sunday and got my favorite scramble! I looked around and remembered buying something on the counter last time I was there, but didn’t see anything this time. After my meal arrived, I saw an employee pushing a cart out from the kitchen area. The bottom shelf was full of their muffins. They have several tasty flavors, but it seemed like they were more anxious to get out if there than making these available to the customers that were still coming in. After my eggs, I started on the pancakes I got as part of the meal. My iced tea needed a self refill from the fountain drink area, but the brewed iced tea containers were already gone. When they started sweeping out from under part of the table I was still seated at, I realized that I better find another new early afternoon venue for Sunday brunch.

Second time going back after trying it a few months ago. I like to give time for a place to mature after it opens and do a recheck. In this case, much the same — the place is clean, the staff is friendly, and the food is okay. I had the Southwest scramble and I have to say, surprisingly bland for something with Chorizo in it and though I appreciate the bell pepper and onions, I would recommend dicing them up a bit versus having them in strips. As for coffee, decent drip diner coffee but I would like a mug versus a huge hot drink cup. Another diner noticed the same thing — a mug allows one to have a reasonable amount of coffee and then fill it up again so it stays hot. In addition, the little hot cup protection ring should be over by the coffee as you fill up the coffee in one place and then have to carry it over to where the hot rings are, and the creamer and sugar, and it is hot! The hashbrowns looked great but they use some sort of buttery spray when cooking them and it is an off flavor in a hashbrown. In addition, the insides of the hashbrown are somewhat starchy — if they dice their own potatoes I would recommend they wash the shredded potatoes to remove the starch. Oh, I did like the chocolate covered strawberry, that is a nice touch. Other than that, I truly wish I liked Biscuits more as it is a close walk from my house. Hopefully I’ll try it again and change my mind.

I went here for lunch. I see that they have awesome reviews for there breakfast maybe next time i would try that instead. Today i ordered there chicken tender platter. Simple and easy. The fries were good, the chicken i was not a fan of… The batter was very flakey and pretty much just fell off and the chicken its self was fully cooked but kinda chewy it was strange… In addition to that the chicken also tasted like it had a fishy taste. Not sure if they are fried in the same oil. I hope not becasue # 1 i personally dont like fish but i know some people who are very allegic to fish so i just hope thats not the case and it was a weird flook. Besides the chicken i didnt like, the resturant was very clean and the staff was very friendly. I liked that i got a chocolate covered strawberry with my order. There soup and sandwhiches looked very good as i saw other orders coming out so i would be willing to comeback and try something different on the menu. Overall just ok at best but I will give it another try with different menu items next time

Stopped in for the first time yesterday and I was extremely impressed. I live right down the street from Biscuits but I only noticed it a couple weeks ago. The menu was fairly extensive and had anything you could want as far as breakfast goes. I went with Joe’s Scramble which came with a choice of toast, biscuits, or pancakes. I chose the biscuits(comes with 2) and all my food was very good. I’m not sure if the rest of the menu comes in such large portions but I wasn’t even able to finish the whole meal. Everything was in the $ 7 – 10 price range; more than reasonable for the quality. I’d recommend this place to anyone, especially if you don’t feel like waiting to be seated at one of the more crowded breakfast places in Tempe.

This place is AMAZING! I found this place by accident when I went into what I thought was the side door for Dilly’s Deli and got a super happy surprise. Their portions are huge, and really reasonably priced. Also, I like how every meal comes with a chocolate-covered strawberry. The staff and cooks are friendly and willing to accommodate dietary needs(I’m allergic to wheat). LOVELOVELOVE this place!

The place to go in Tempe for breakfast! Came to town for Pats Run and went all 4 mornings, getting something different every time. Sweet potato pancakes are my favorite but it was all delicious and a large selection. and a ton of food for the price, other places in town charge twice as much for a third the amount of food! Plus, they give you a chocolate covered strawberry with every meal! Yum. We’ll be back next year!

I walked in to Biscuit’s Café after discovering Boston’s had closed. For an order at the counter place I was really impressed with the quality of the food and the attention to detail. The portions are HUGE, I order the ½ sandwich and soup and could barely finish it. The second time I did ½ sandwich and a side and had the same experience. The bacon and turkey on the sandwich each time was delicious. The meals were served with a pickle, a pepperocini AND a chocolate covered strawberry. If you order the special of the day you also get a chocolate chip cookie the size of your face. Lunch was served fast and they have tropical China Mist Tea. I will be adding Biscuit’s Café to my regular lunch rotation! Oh yeah, join the FREE rewards club for all sorts of free stuff!

A new and nicely appointed breakfast/brunch/lunch spot. You walk up to order and then they bring your food out to you. The food was okay. I got a meltz sandwich. The bacon was quite good; but I found the sandwich a little damp with melted butter. They give you a chocolate covered strawberry, which is a cute little touch. The prices were reasonable. I would eat here again.

We came in for breakfast and immediately liked the décor, sort of modern with interesting design and good use of colors… the way it works, you walk up and order your food and they bring it to the table. I had the usual bacon and 3 eggs with sourdough toast. the eggs were done easy over and they were cooked to perfection. With the toast they included some fresh strawberry jam which was delicious and the home made bread was a great touch. Another nice touch they also do, is they included a chocolate dipped strawberry with your meal… I liked that. My wife had eggs and turkey bacon. She thought they did a great job cooking the eggs… I highly recommend this place, its very clean, the wait help was very friendly and the food and biscuits were to die for… .Oh wait… we had the fresh baked Cinnamon roll. Oh my… they glazed it just before they brought it to the table. it smelled increditble and tasted awesome…

Saw that this location recently opened, so went to check it out this weekend, and so glad we did. The place looks and feels like a somewhat retro diner but its all new, modern and clean. You order at the counter, and seat yourself, and you get your own drinks. I liked this because you end up getting your food faster. The prices were normal, but they do have good lunch specials with soup, salad & half a sandwich for around 8 bucks or so. Each item we had, from the hash browns, to the eggs, to the chicken fried steak & even the pancakes were all really good, hearty, and tasted fresh. Large generous portions, and our plates came with a big ol’ chocolate covered strawberry. Bring your appetite and definitely try the cinnamon bun!

After Harlow’s down the road was so packed we couldn’t park, we decided to give this new breakfast café a try. The portions are extremely generous and overall the food was really good. The prices are a little high I think, but not so much that I wouldn’t return. I knocked down a star because the ham I received was«off» and tasted like it was past it’s shelf life, and the oj was just so-so. They do give complimentary chocolate covered strawberries that are epic!

I’ve already gone to the Biscuits location in Chandler about 30 times since they’ve opened, and I was happy when I saw this new location in Tempe closer to my house. This location is a walk-up, counter system, which I actually really like. I can say that they excel in everything I would hope for in a breakfast place: the food is great and the atmosphere clean and inviting. All of the french toast options are amazing(especially the Almond crusted kind) and the omelettes are solid(although the chorizo is on the mild side if you’re opting for that.) I love this place and hope it has a long and successful future.

I love the layout of Biscuits I thought it was going to be a drab, ma and pa diner… But it is very hip and modern… The color scheme is really cute and the tables and chairs coordinate well… The chairs are pretty comfy too, their types of chairs usually aren’t… The cashier was very helpful and knowledgable… She asked if we had been in before, and we told her that we hadn’t… She gave us a run down of the menu as well as popular items and things that she liked… Today I got the corned beef hash… It’s really all I get at breakfast joints… I also got a Decaf coffee… They have a beat coffee and soda bar… I think it is a great use of space… Their menu has some range to it, I thought it would just be breakfast but they have salads, burgers, and sandwiches. Back to my meal… It is good :) I really like the corned beef and onions. The hash browns are pretty standard, they’re good The biscuits are yum as well and they come with some sort of Apple strawberry jam Also each meal comes with complimentary chocolate dipped strawberries… No way! Lol! I’ll be here often!

Walked here from our place — great location. Great service, no wait. Had the buttermilk pancakes with over medium eggs — pancakes were just the right flavor and fluffiness and the eggs were done perfectly. My fiancé had the chicken fried chicken and I tried his hash browns(delish) and biscuits(so yummy). The biscuits came with a strawberry jam that tasted homemade and like my grandma used to make. I actually put some of that on my pancakes and it was SOGOOD. They also gave us chocolate covered strawberries as a nice little extra treat. Will definitely come back.

This is exactly the kind of breakfast place you want! The place is named Biscuits so I was pleased when the biscuits lived up to my expectations. The strawberry preserves are heavenly and could(and should) be spread on anything you can find! The sausage gravy on my chicken fried chicken was thick and flavorful. Finally, the eggs were a perfectly cooked over-easy. If this place wasn’t a five star breakfast spot before, it became one when they brought out complimentary chocolate covered strawberries! I’ll be back here very soon!

Service is incredible. Every time we come we get a free treat like cookies or strawberries to show they care. Smiling staff and great food make this place worth the stop!
