    Locally famous, Handsome's is well regarded for their biscuits and sandwiches. Not from the South, the thickness of a biscuit is unusual for me. These biscuits, however, are really flaky and tasty. The egg, cheddar, bacon breakfast offering is pretty good. I thought it a bit dry, and would have liked a mayo or another sauce to provide additional flavor and moisture. The service was excellent and friendly (as were other patrons). It is a small business, so all seating is outside. Take out orders are popular.

    "My mind is telling me no, but my tastebuds...my tastebuds are telling me yes! I don't see nothing wrong, with a fried chicken breast on a sweet potato biscuit..." Seriously, you just gotta try it. I recommend the one with pickles, pimento, hot sauce, and adding a fried egg. If you need a veggie break, they sell side salads to offset their other side offerings of loaded fries or tots...

    Handsome Biscuit is my go-to breakfast spot when I am in Norfolk. We grabbed biscuits this past weekend, and it was ok. It wasn't as savory as I remembered, but I can't point to one particular reason. The size was typical and all of the toppings were there. Maybe the chicken was flavored differently? Or maybe I needed more toppings. Overall, I didn't walk away with the satisfied feeling I usually have. 3 STARS! I know I will be back. No question about it. I'm giving the benefit of the doubt of having an off day. It was a busy day in the city. I'll give an updated review after I visit again.

    Finally tried Handsome Biscuit and I definitely see why the original location has been in business since 2013 and they have a new, sit down spot in VB. The original is located between Park Place and Ghent, at 26th & Colonial Avenue. It's a small place, order in only, very bright and pleasant. Two people were behind the counter working efficiently. There are laminated menus next to the two ordering kiosks, as well as digital displays, giving multiple ways to view your options. I like kiosk ordering, especially when, as in this case, your order is automatically added to Toasttab, where you can later view your receipt and track your loyalty points. The young man who made my order smiled when he handed it to me. Best of both worlds: good use of tech while not sacrificing human pleasantries. The biscuits are large and flaky, soft where they should be and crunchy where they should be, with a hint of sweetness. I ordered a Shorty with egg & cheese, and added chicken so I'd have some for later, as well as an additional chicken biscuit and tots with green chili aïoli. There were quite a bit of tots, enough to share, and they were hot and crunchy. Handsome Biscuit is a great option for good, local, handhelds. Of note: this location is card only, no cash.

    I love the non existent customer service that I have been experiencing in Norfolk. Sorry to be a bother, I thought this was a place to eat and you profit from customers which is what I am. Food is of the average quality. Used to be a great place before COVID.

    Tuesday morning visit to Handsome Biscuit was the perfect start to the day! The biscuits are light & fluffy but also soft & doughy at the same time. The egg & bacon were cooked perfectly. The service was friendly & speedy! You order on the kiosk inside or you can place an order ahead of time to pick up. There is no indoor seating, but plenty of outdoor picnic tables. I look forward to trying more of there biscuit creations! Highly recommend!

    So so good. One of the best biscuit places I've ever been to! The comeback sauce is delicious and the biscuits and chicken are always so good. Go out of my way to stop here on road trips. If I was local, I would go incredibly too often. The service is always good and you get your food quickly.

    I went to the Handsome Biscuit for the first time. I ordered a bacon, egg and cheese biscuit. The biscuit was good! They only have outdoor seating at pic nic tables. It is a nice little outdoor eating area. You order on a computer screen, however the workers were very helpful as I was not familiar with the menu. The food was ready in a timely manner and the biscuit was good!

    One of the first places I went to eat in Norfolk when I first moved here in 2019. Food and service was definitely on point. Sat outside during the summer and had a good vibe. I dont eat the food often but when I do, its always chef's kiss

    One word, delicious! On a recent trip to Norfolk I enjoyed the Handsome Biscuit. While here I had the Hella Fitzgerald w/ a fried egg. This biscuit comes with chicken, bacon, cheddar cheese and sausage gravy. Had to have add the egg. The biscuit itself was so good. Flaky and buttery. The chicken was crispy and deliciously cooked. Batter heavy. If you aren't a batter fan, you may take issue. The bacon was crispy as well. And the sausage gravy? On point. One thing...this biscuit is sloppy, so eat it fast. Of course I had to drizzle that hot sauce on top! 10/10 would dine again. SYOY!

    Food was delicious! Biscuits were soft and fresh but fell apart a few bites in. Everything was well prepared in terms of flavor!

    (Updated rating) Found out about this spot from mrchimetime on tiktok and he was definitely right about how good this place was. I ordered a takeout order of the chicken classic combo with orange juice and tots for a total of 16$ (a lil expensive). The chicken biscuit sandwich was great especially the chicken which was crispy and juicy and also the comeback sauce was also pretty good as well. The tots were standard but tasted even better with the comeback sauce. The orange juice was okay but nothing special. All in all, this place is really good and I woula recommend to all and be open to returning whenever I'm in the area.

    Okay another perfect example Yelp should allow 1/2 star ratings. This place is a solid 4 1/2 star joint. But I found that a couldn't round up. But let me say - Go! It was a very decent meal. I found this place by someone posting something on social media a while ago. I happen to keep a folder of places I want to visit the next time in an area. Today was the day I chose this for my dining pleasure. The place kinda shocked me. I just assumed a sit down joint, but that was my mistake. No inside dining but a nice patio area and today was a great day. As for our meals. I had the HELLA FITZGERALD - combo. I also added a fried egg and chose the biscuit instead of a roll. It was so thick and full. I ended up eating it with a knife and fork instead of trying to pick it up by hand and it all falling all over the place. I enjoyed it a lot. It was very good. As for the wifey she chose the CHICKEN VERDE - combo. Also needed to eat with a knife and fork. It looked really good even though I didn't try any of it. The wife liked it a lot as well and really liked the sauce that was put on it. Let me say the two ladies working today (3/14/24) busted their butts getting the meals out and it was fairly busy. They did a great job and we got our meals very timely. So again, let me say despite my four-star rating. This is a solid place to enjoy a nice lunch meal. Go and enjoy the next time you're in the area or perhaps you live in the area and just haven't given it a shot - do so.

    When did they stop making lupo sauce?

    Are they no longer serving ac slaughter anymore? it's not avail online to order.

    It is no longer on the menu.

    Do they have gluten free options?

    They do not carry gluten free

    Updated Review:…read more R.A.S is located inside of the handsome biscuit. There isn't really any seating inside so you have to order to go or sit down outside. The sandwich is just as the store name suggests basic, if you like a classic simple sandwich then this is your spot. I would have like to have seen a slightly higher quality meat for a sandwich shop. The meat on the sandwiches seems like regular prepackaged deli meat, given the price point there's nothing wrong with that. Most if not all of the sandwiches start at 8$ so everything is decently priced. If you want a sandwich but you don't want a jimmy John's or subway sub this is a nice alternative for a little midday lunch. Original Review: The yelp page says permanently closed however it is not, the sandwich just moved locations. It is now located inside of the handsome biscuit restaurant. I was excited to try this restaurant. I have attempted to try it a few times however they're "closed" each time despite the neon open sign being lit. The business should clarify if they are only open until they sell out or they may need to adjust the hours of operation that they have posted across various platforms as it causes confusion.

I'll definitely be back to try more sandos. Pro tip: They have limited hours. Ps. Sorry for the bitten sando pic. My definitely did not eat first! lol!

My wife had the Lynnhaven roasted chicken breast, Pimento Cheese, bacon, spinach, tomato and basil spread on ciabatta bread. Again this was a pile of meat and vegetables on a good piece of bread. Both of these came with a bag of Route 18 potato chips that are locally made. The service was real quick and delivered to our outside table within minutes of finishing grabbing our sodas. While they also offered inside seating, we sat outside because it was warm and comfortable in the sun. Both are good options for the spirit of the moment.
