We returned to this place again. Despite the packed Sunday brunch crowd, surprisingly we were seated promptly. The experience was similar to our last visit, with a slight wait before being attended to. Coincidentally, the same server from our previous visit was there. They were very pleasant, friendly, and attentive. The food was consistently delicious. read more

This is our second time with HOTG. Our first experience was at their Carmichael location. We remembered a satisfying breakfast when we ate at HOTG, so we decided to try the Rocklin location. This brunch spot has limited inside seating, but they do have a patio for al fresco dining. True enough, our meal here was as satisfying as we expected. We pretty much ordered what we got the first time, which was the HOTG Eggs Benedict and Corned Beef Hash. Our friends chose the Chicken Fried Steak and Louisiana Hot Links. The garlicky house potatoes and seasonal fruit cup (pomegranate, orange & persimmon) were great sides for our entrees. Service was excellent with the staff making sure our cups of joe were topped off. read more

Was here Friday morning at around 8:45am expecting a wait but there wasn't for a party of 5. Their location used to be a popular breakfast place too that closed down. I like how roomy their feel is. Definitely good for groups. We ordered the following: 1. HOTG eggs Benedict with a side of fruit 2. Corned beef hash with a side of pancake 3. Classic chicken fried steak with sour dough toast and a side of fruits 4. Louisiana hot links with pancake 5. 2,two, too pancakes with bacon And of course coffee for everyone. This breakfast experience was great from service- our server never failed to check on us and offer coffee refills to quality of food. Highly recommended and definitely coming back. read more

Food & service were excellent! We would recommend going there. We went during the week no wait.

Great service, good food, portions sized for different appetites. Overall a great place ro eat.

Was in Roseville for a holiday gathering and decided to grab a bite before lunch with the fam. Glad we did because the food was tantalizing to my tastebuds. Me: the Eggs Benedict with regular bacon (crispy,) my home, potatoes crispy, and a cup of coffee that was strong just like me! He: House made sausage patties, eggs and pancakes and of course that Strong cup of me. The Teen: A waffle, eggs (scrambled) and bacon. Us: waters all around. Of course I tasted the pancakes and waffle and I must say Yum Yum Yum. The service was definitely on point, from the welcome at the door to our server Danny/Dani, she was kind and attentive, as well as the other wait staff checking in as needed. The crowd was a vibe as some enjoyed the football game and others in conversation and all were digging in! Will I go back if in the neighborhood? I give it a Bay Area #Hella. Sooo, I'll give this place four yumms up and a I'll be back!! read more

Came here with a friend a couple weeks ago for the first time. I had the California omelet and my friend had the chicken fried steak. We both thoroughly enjoyed our meals. Service was great and they were more than happy to accommodate special requests. It's not cute or quaint, but has more of a breakfast diner feel. Would definitely come back for the delicious food!

Walking in today, I honestly didn't have high hopes with only 4 reviews... however, expectations were blown with immaculate food and bursting flavors! As we arrived today at about 1:20 p.m, 40 minutes before Hot Off the Griddle was set to close, we were welcomed with big smiling faces. We were offered a seat next to the front door but ended up choosing one closer to the back, away from too much activity. Since we arrived before closing, it was not too busy.... or HOTG is too new to this area that no one knows how delicious it can be. It has a modern look with tables & chairs in what seems to fit maybe 60ish guests inside. There do have a small outdoor section that may suit about 30+ more As we looked over the menu, the prices are a little steep. A lot of dishes that seem to be HOTG favorites range between $17.99‐$19.99. I went with the HOTG Benedict($19.99)- crispy english muffin with spinach, avocado, fried green tomato, and bacon with a poached egg, topped with handmade hollandaise. My bf went with the HOTG Scramble ($17.99)- a biscuit split open with homemade sausage patties, then topped with 3 scrambled eggs and homemade gravy. We enjoyed our coffee while we waited for our brunch to be ready. It was a nice touch that our server offered French vanilla creamer. When our food arrived, it did not disappoint the eye... beautifully topped on the poached eggs with the hollandaise. The scramble had gravy and neither looked overwhelming. Our first bite was just as scrumptious as the ones after. The mmm's and oh's just keeps coming. Then we swapped plates and the deliciousness just kept pouring out of our mouths. Oh, both were served worth hot country potatoes. They weren't crispy, but I liked them like that... my dad would've loved them that way. I wish I could've brought him here (RIP Dad). Our server was very attentive. She kept our coffee's full and made sure we were satisfied... although her comment of "big portions" and "we did good finishing" didn't sit right. I let that slide ( I guess you had to be there to understand... it's weird to comment on how much someone can eat). I enjoyed the food, service, and how on point the food was. I do look forward to coming back! read more

Oh my gosh! The food was delicious! The service was impeccable! The ambiance was delightful! What an awesome breakfast spot! I met a colleague here for a late breakfast business meeting. Our food server was absolutely wonderful! Very attentive and personable, but not at all overbearing! I ordered joes scramble with the addition of country gravy. Talk about a flavour sensation.... YUM!!! I can't make a habit of eating here because I wouldn't behave too well when it comes to the food I would order. But, I can say without hesitation, I will be back!

We freaking love this place. Their corned beef hash is . Service is usually pretty good and attentive and their patio is great to bring our dog with us. Prices have gone up so we can't come as often but their food is good enough to impress out of town guests. read more

This small Cafe resides in a Rocklin strip mall on Granite Drive. Walk in to a bright and airy premise and you begin to smell the delicious food they serve. Their meals come out of the kitchen quickly, well-cooked and flavorful. The servers are efficient and friendly. Open for breakfast and lunch, this Cafe is one of three restaurants all owned by the same family. Be sure and give them a try soon! read more

I was sad to see the previous place leave. I appreciated their unique menu. Went here for the first time, and service was great. Same atmosphere from previous owner. But food was not to my expectations. I ordered a tuna melt and it was just okay. It could be elevated with maybe better bread or cheese? Not sure how they make it, grill or oven? It was basic. My teen son got the XL breakfast which he said it was okay. Overall, nice to have a local spot but unfortunately it won't be my next spot. read more

The food was amazing, best breakfast for everyone, not one bit greasy at all. Great service, great atmosphere. We will be again and again

Stopped for breakfast at about 9 am with two boys under 3. It is a great spot for breakfast. There is indoor as well as an out patio for eating. We were seated immediately, and asked for our drinks. This is our favorite spot in Rocklin so far. My wife got an XL breakfast, and I had a Cheese Omelet. We both had coffee. There was enough food for all four of us eating. The server was very attentive and friendly. I failed to get her name. All of the employees from the waitstaff to the cooks were very friendly and happy. We will be back again soon for breakfast. read more

Had one of the "XL " breakfasts...outstanding! Huge portion more than enough for my husband and I. Pancakes amazing, light with crisp bottom, huge, airy....flavorful....cant say enough .food excellent, Crystal our waitress very attentive. Jason..owner/chef...amazing! Celeste & Gordon read more

Came to this establishment on a Tuesday morning around 10:30. At this time we were the only two people here. There is plenty of seating indoors, and they have beautiful patio seating as well. The decor is plain, and the restaurant is very clean and located in a strip mall with lots of parking. They are open for breakfast and lunch only. I ordered the California omelette with potatoes and toast. The omelette was large in size and presented very nicely. The ingredients are fresh, but overall the omelette did lack some flavor. The house potatoes were seasoned deliciously and also included onions and green bell pepper. I will give five star for the potatoes. I also ordered a side of gravy for my potatoes, unfortunately I was highly disappointed in the flavor. My son ordered the southwest omelette which was flavorful. The service was fast and the server was very nice. The prices were a little bit higher than most establishments for breakfast. I would return for lunch, as they had several items to choose from. read more

So glad to see a HOTG open closer to home. They do basic good breakfasts in a fantastic way. Menu has all the classic breakfasts you would expect, daily specials such as banana bread French toast adding a bit of flair. The wait staff is very friendly and make you want to come often enough to be considered regulars. We are definitely aiming to be among the regulars as we make this a normal stop when out for breakfast or brunch. read more

Hot Off The Griddle is relatively new to the Rocklin/Placer County dining scene, opening back in June, 2023, after purchasing the former Barn Burner Cafe. Hot Off The Griddle made some minor changes to the decor, made major changes to the menu, but kept a nearly identical format of great breakfast and lunch, served by friendly staff. It's a little past the 07:00 in the morning opening time on Christmas eve, Sunday, December 24, 2023. What a better way to begin Christmas eve day than to begin the day by enjoying an amazing breakfast at a fine restaurant? You know you're in for a breakfast treat when you visit a restaurant that's open for breakfast and lunch only... and today... it was Hot Off The Griddle, located in Rocklin, CA. As you enter the restaurant, you'll notice the small counter and the open kitchen and preparation area. On this Christmas eve, the dining room was decorated for the season. The dining room is very spacious, modestly furnished, and very welcoming. The double doors lead out to the large patio. The restaurant is open for breakfast and lunch, and anything listed on the menu is available any time the restaurant is open. So if you're craving a cheeseburger for breakfast, you're in business! From the "2, Two, Too" section of the breakfast menu, I went with sausage, scrambled eggs and biscuits and gravy. The menu describes this as, "2, Two, Too" are served with two eggs and your choice of bacon, sausage or ham. The "Too" choices are French toast, waffle, pancake or biscuits and gravy. Biscuits and gravy was a simple choice for me! For meat, my choice was sausage, and Tiana offered me the choice between links or a patty; I sent with links. The sausage links were on the short side, but were quite fat, perfectly grilled, and simply delicious. Since no potatoes were included with this breakfast, I went with scrambled eggs, which are "standalone" delicious without potatoes. Like the sausage links, my eggs were cooked to perfection. The chef truly has talent. Biscuits and gravy is a great description, as the breakfast included TWO biscuits, split in half and covered with a generous portion of country gravy. The biscuits were fresh, flaky on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside. I assume the biscuits were made in-house, as they were delicious and amazingly fresh. The gravy was a delicious sausage-based country gravy, which was thick, rich and like the rest of my breakfast, simply delicious. About halfway through my breakfast, Tiana came over and asked me if I'd like more gravy - count me in! - went into the kitchen, and returned with a small bowl of extra gravy. That was a nice touch! The breakfast was simply delicious, as everything was fresh, and cooked to order, and very filling, as I didn't eat anything else until dinner. You truly will be satisfied when you enjoy breakfast at Hot Off The Griddle! The breakfast was simply amazingly delicious, the dining room was comfortable, and the service given by Talia was fast and friendly. Hot Off The Griddle serves great food, and keeps the tradition of a fine breakfast restaurant alive and well in Rocklin, CA. On this Christmas eve morning, I truly enjoyed my breakfast, and the entire dining experience. I give this wonderful restaurant 5 stars! You can bet your burger that I'll be back for more... read more

Really enjoyed lunch here today. Simple menu, but good choices. Quick service. I liked the vibe in here, it felt modern but cozy. The food was great. My perfect French fry--battered and crispy. Would definitely come here again! read more

Great, local spot in Rocklin. Great service and great food. We've been here multiple times and they never disappoint. The service is outstanding. They are super nice and friendly here and make sure to take care of everyone who comes in. The frequently check in on you and make sure you are satisfied which is great. The ambiance is great. Everyone is usually chatting and enjoying themselves. They have indoor and out door seating and are able to accommodate to almost anything. The décor is nice and modern and everything is clean. The menus can be a little cleaner and updated to be more recent, however. The food is great here and done correctly. Other reviews say that the food is basic breakfast food, however I would say that it is done exceptionally well and never disappoints. They have great, large portions that are super filling and taste great. You can taste the freshness and everything that is made in house. They don't skip out on any of the fillings and always make sure to add extra on top. Everything is well seasoned and plated well. From their thick sandwiches to their omelets to their skillets to their pancakes/waffles, everything is great and done well. Great food, great service and a must visit if you are in the area or a local! read more

Service was excellent. Food was too salty for me. Chairs not comfortable. Not every place is your place. Others might love it.

Waitress good service Menu good breakfast choices Food not so good over cooked Sausage links over cooked and dry Potatoes and onions over cooked tasted somewhat burnt and just warm temp. Eggs just ok for medium Toast toasted but barley warm Parsley garnish on plate was wilted and fruit bowl on one plate looked alittle off $48 .00 inc. tip 2 people I had good meals in the past , but I think the cook is lacking pride in there work The restaurant wasn't very busy for the time it took.to get served Sorry for the poor review but management or owner need to know. read more

Service could use improvement. I showed up with son and my mother to treat them to a lunch together and wanted to introduce my mother to this place where the food has always been good. Well, we were sat down and the employees proceeded to sit other people down and wait on them never once asking us what we would like to drink or if we were ready to order. I do not stand for this kind of service as seen in my other reviews. So I walked out and went to the Chinese restaurant next door and they gave me great service and AMAZING Chinese food. Moral of the story, if I do not feel respected - any company will lose my business. read more

Hot Off the Griddle is a pretty good breakfast spot. This was our first time going here and we were pleasantly surprised at how good it was. We arrived around 7:45am on a Sunday and we were the only ones in the restaurant. The waitress was friendly. We ordered the H.O.T.G. Scramble which is a biscuit with sausage patties, three eggs covered in gravy with potatoes and the Hot Link XL breakfast that came with two hot links, potatoes, three eggs, and two pancakes. We both really enjoyed our breakfast. The service was good and the food came out pretty quickly. The restaurant is really cute. I loved the teal chairs. There were two TVs on. There was outdoor seating as well, but it was very cold the morning were here. Plenty of indoor seating as well. The only negative is the price. $4 for coffee and our meals were more expensive than other breakfast spots we eat at regularly. read more

Clean, nice vibe. Super friendly waitress Heather. They have several choices for a $7.99 breakfast every day before 8am.

Friendly server, but she was solo. Just her and one cook. 3 maybe 4 other tables and it took almost an hour to eat. Not their fault, definitely management issues. The food was not good and absurdly priced. If you like biscuits and gravy, this is NOT a place to order. The gravy tasted off, almost like it was old? The homemade sausage had an after taste and looked undercooked in some spots. A meal for two was over $50 for breakfast. read more

This used to be The Barnburner Cafe which we loved but it was always an hour wait time when we'd go there, so we only ate there 3 or 4 times, but it was great. Hot Off the Grill is about 1 star down from that. The food was decent, but it's one of those things where there are so many better places why just settle for decent. The server was one of those annoyingly sweet people who feel that a hon or sweetie takes the place of good service. She was like the food, adequate. Next time we'll probably go a block down the street to one of our favorites Venita Rheas. read more
