Coming from NY, my sister and I wanted to try something new and we were definitely not disappointed. We found parking down the street and walked over, which could probably get tricky on busier days, but I'm here for the food anyway! The staff was friendly and everything seemed to move quickly and efficiently. Even when it was busy, the noise level was never too high. Prices were reasonable too, which I appreciated. I got the breakfast burrito with turkey bacon, a side of grits, and the stuffed french toast. My sister got chicken and waffles with french toast, eggs, and chicken sausage. Every single thing was SO good that we literally came back again the next day before our flight home. Those grits especially... probably the best grits I've had that weren't made by my grandmother. Smooth, flavorful, perfect texture. And the stuffed french toast!!!! Wow. I don't usually like french toast, but the balance of tartness from the raspberry compote and the creaminess from the crème fraîche was perfect. Another great spot added to the list. 10/10 read more

Came in on a busy Sunday and only had to wait 15 mins to be seated at the bar. There was a bit of a wait on food, but I was easily distracted by the mimosa flights. Heavy handed on the champagne, I did not leave fully sober. The chicken biscuit benny was really good. Chicken was juicy and the gravy wasn't too salty, just right. Server at the bar was really nice, talkative, and professional. I really appreciated the service. Overall a great experience. read more

My husband wanted to try something new and he was craving fresh in house made biscuits and was sadly disappointed as we were given biscuits that resembled and tasted exactly like Popeye's biscuits. Needless to say, that's not a compliment. We're selective in where we choose to dine because we don't care for processed foods and prefer fresh ingredients. They do offer a variety of breakfast dishes. I'm just disappointed by the lack of authenticity. The service was excellent as everyone was nice. Our server Latasha was so sweet and was on top of things. read more

A few weeks ago I visited a Flying Biscuit Café and thoroughly enjoyed it so I wanted to try another location. This one didn't disappoint! It gives off a cool city-brunch vibe that feels lively but relaxed. My food was delicious once again. I ordered the Smoked Salmon Scramble which is three eggs w/wood-smoked salmon and dill cream cheese. There wasn't quite enough cream cheese this time but it was still flavorful. As always, the apple butter on the biscuit was a highlight. I noticed my hollandaise was missing so I'm glad I asked. It pairs perfectly with their famous moon-dusted potatoes. My husband enjoyed the Egg-Stravaganza and I loved seeing peppermint tea on the menu at this location. I enjoyed it with my meal. My husband ordered the White Russian which he also enjoyed. Portion sizes are generous and definitely worth the price. Our waiter, Fofo, was friendly, attentive, and easygoing, which made the experience even better. Overall, it's a great place for brunch, and I would absolutely return. read more

Came in on a Sunday after church. Parking is very limited and you need to pay attention to street signs. There was a wait but trust me when I say it's worth it. Plus the wait wasn't that bad. We were told there was about a 30-40 min wait and we had a table after about 20mins. We sat at the bar, yes you have to be put on the wait list to sit at the bar on the weekends (I asked). Service was great and quick. Our waitress had a great bubbly personality. The mimosa flight was a great deal and well made! Fresh juice and heavy pours make great mimosas! Side note: when you sit at the bar, you may or may not get samples of other drinks as they are made for customers. With that being said, get the margarita at your own risk lol. The food was on point. Eggs made just as I ordered. Bacon was crispy just how I like it. This was my first time having chicken sausage and I was impressed. The grits stole the show for me. Hands down best grits I've ever had. Super creamy and so much flavor. I would honestly go back just for the grits! Let's not forget about the handmade biscuits that were super fluffy. After writing this review I've decided to go back, like right now lol. See you there. read more

Pretty standard breakfast food. The mimosa flights were good and it's nice that you can choose your juice options. I got the veggie scramble which came with a side of potatoes and a biscuit. The potatoes were really good and crispy. The restaurant definitely gets pretty busy towards more peak times and it's not the biggest restaurant you'll ever come across so space can be a little limited. There are parking spots right by the restaurant. Otherwise the best option is probably street/neighborhood parking read more

Saturday 10 am, we stopped in for breakfast before heading to Cidercade, and The Flying Biscuit was fantastic! Despite being a Saturday morning, it was not super crowded. There were a couple of groups there post 5K. We headed to the bar where there was plenty of seating! I had the biscuit, eggs, and gravy with grits. The grits were shockingly good (and I'm not a grit person AT ALL!!) The sausage is a chicken sausage but really good chopped up in the gravy. My husband ordered the Flying Biscuit breakfast, and those "moon dust" potatoes deserve their own spotlight. The rosemary-garlic-salt-pepper blend gives them an incredible flavor that sets them apart from your everyday breakfast potatoes. Even though it's a franchise, the food tastes fresh and homemade. Not prepackaged and mass made. Service was super friendly, thank you Tasha!! Food came out quick and hot, and the bright, cheerful vibe made it such a great start to our day. Plus, the location right across from Cidercade makes it the perfect breakfast-and-play combo spot. Highly recommend! read more

I was meeting up with a friend for brunch and neither of us had any idea where to go. I googled brunch place with easy parking (this place did not have easy parking lol) and this place came up. The wait was shorter than expected and the decor was cute and vibrant. My friend ordered a hangover hash and had absolutely no comment on it. I guess that says a lot. I ordered avocado toast and it comes with 2 eggs and fruit. The avocado had no flavor and i had to spice it up with salt and pepper. The toast was thin and crumbly. I left thinking about what else I could eat! And I'm a petite woman! I don't think I'll be back and was hoping to find something close and delicious read more

Came by today on a Sunday. Parking on the front and on the side that's shared with the midrise. A good crowd here for brunch, but the place wasn't noisy. Sat at the bar and the bartender is nice as can be handling both the waiters' drink orders and the customers at the bar. Prices on the menu were competitive with the area. They even have a section for vegetarians and vegans. After debating on whether to get the french toast or the veggie scramble, I went for the veggie scramble which was accompanied by well seasoned potatoes. The eggs were fine with the right ratio of veggies and cheese. What confused me halfway through that there was no bread or flying biscuit that accompanied my plate. I had to recheck the menu on my phone to confirm that it was supposed to come with my dish. By that point, I didn't want to ask for it since I was almost done with my eggs. Oh well. I drank 3 glasses of Arnold Palmers. I probably would have had to drink more with that biscuit. read more

The service was very good fast and friendly. The decor was very pleasant and clean. They had a nice menu but I was disappointed in the food. The steak and eggs for $19 was not worth it. The steak was very small and the amount of hard fat I had to try to cut was not good. The flying biscuit breakfast sausage was hard and rubbery. The biscuits were good and the grits were amazing. I just don't think I would go out of my way to eat here for $50 for two for breakfast. read more

This visit did not live up to more than two stars for food. Service was good, however both our orders were disappointing. Hubby ordered the biscuits & gravy with two eggs. Gravy was tasteless, watery and unappealing. My salmon scramble was very dry. I would have liked wet eggs and tender pieces of salmon. Both were way overcooked. read more

We tried this place off of the strength of an influencers recommendation and it was a good experience. I would like to try more things on the menu but the order I asked for was just.. enough. Cool vibe in the restaurant but I'd need to try the more eye catching items on the menu to really feel like I was getting that satiating experience. Adding to my Houston Collection to recommend though. Fairly priced and many options to choose from that keep you coming back. read more

We stumbled upon this place after driving by on a Sunday morning while feeling hungry. It's located at the bottom of the Forth at Navigation apartments, and has limited parking on the side of the building and a few reserved spots. Luckily we arrived around 10 am just before the brunch crowd so parking wasn't an issue. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted and seated right away. Our server was prompt and friendly. I ordered an orange juice, and my boyfriend got bottomless coffee. Both were good but nothing remarkable. For our entrees, I had the French toast, and my boyfriend went with the Piedmont omelet. Both dishes were delicious! The French toast was sweet without being overwhelming, and the omelet, despite the sausage bacon combo felt surprisingly light. Both meals came with a side and we both got potatoes. They were flavorful and soft although I personally prefer a crispier texture, but that's just a preference. Service was fast, which was great since we wanted to be in and out. Overall, I really enjoyed the meal, but not enough to come back. The food was tasty, but with Houston's thriving breakfast scene, it just didn't stand out. read more

Another Sleeper from the weekend! I just learned about this place and it's so cute on the inside. I was instantly greeted and sat down. My server was attentive and knowledgeable. We tried the piedmont omelette, the spicy vegan greens, the potatoes, and a classic breakfast. Everything was so good! standouts- the juice in the greens was good, not too spicy. Last, the biscuits! omg the biscuits- light, dense, full. You can tell they are homemade. I mean they are definitely worth it! I ended with eating things and wished I had room for the whole thing! Definitely give this a try! read more

In summary: there's some training that needs to be done. Although the food is affordable, this experience ensured that I won't be back. I was excited to try this place but the experience was destroyed before we were even seated. We were told that our party of 7 (4 adults and 1 child) would be seated within 15min by the host but then 30min passed and he assured us that we were next on the list. Another 15min passed and I went inside again to see if there was an update. I observed several tables set for 6 were only occupied by 2 people. After 45min the host asked if we'd be ok sitting at separate tables and then proceeded to sit another party of 2 at a table set for 6 while there were 6 chairs available at the bar AND after telling us we were next on the list. At this point we'd been waiting 1hr and 25min. I told the host that we expected to be seated at that table since he told us we were next ace he said "but they were already on the list waiting first" I responded "but you said we were next and that's a table for 6" he responded "just be patient" and walked away Is waiting for 1hr and 25min after being told a 15min wait not being patient?? That was the final straw. We were finally seated at two tables across from each other and I addressed the young manager. I informed her the host needs to be trained on how to seat customers and customer service. Not only will he cost the owner money by not occupying tables properly but he will cost the servers money by not occupying tables correctly. Coming from management and the service industry this was awful. I also told her that it would've been nice to see a manager checking on her customers, questioning why there were groups of ppl standing in the middle of the floor and large tables only having two occupants, and acknowledging our wait. To at least offer some sort of compensation for our issues. She thanked me for my concern and said they're working on the host and then brought us complementary biscuits. Our server was Tosha. I have zero complaints about her. Her Service was fast, correct and efficient. She played with my child and checked out our tickets correctly. I was glad to be in her section and made sure to tip her well Pictures will show 3 6 seaters only sat with 2 occupants, several bar seats available, and the host hanging out at the bar while we wait. read more

After trying in Atlanta, you know I had to come back to Houston and try it out!! Again, great service, yummy food, and super cute establishment. I think we may have been served the wrong kind of chicken on my fiancés meal, but it was still good! He was supposed to have Nashville hot chicken, but he said this tasted more Mexican-style! But it could just be their rub. It was also dry rub, and when we asked for Nashville hot sauce it came as a sauce. So we just think there was a kitchen mix up! read more

This place used to be PACKED with people and had really good breakfast. Sometime between march and now, they've changed the menu and honestly it's just not that great. For the amount of breakfast places within a couple mile radius, Flying Biscuit no longer stands out with the lack of a line to get in the door showing. It's an okay option in the east end, but for the price and menu changes you're better off visiting a mom and pop. After my experience, I probably won't be coming back. read more

My daughter and I stopped by The Flying Biscuit after a trip to the airport, excited to check out a place new to us. My food-loving little bestie is always ready to try new restaurants. The place had a charming look, both outside and in, with a cozy, quiet diner feel. The staff greeted us warmly and seated us right away. Our waitress, whose name escapes me, was super friendly. We kicked things off with drinks: my daughter's hot chocolate, which she raved about for being rich and perfectly hot, and my mango nectar juice, which came from a can instead of being fresh, but it was okay. My daughter ordered French toast with eggs and bacon, while I got the classic American breakfast with potatoes, eggs, a biscuit, chicken breakfast sausage, and apple jam. My daughter enjoyed her French toast but wished it was hotter. My meal was mostly lukewarm--only the biscuit and eggs were properly hot. The potatoes were hard, the sausage chewy, and the apple jam wasn't my favorite because it had a strong cinnamon flavor I didn't care for. The queso dip for the potatoes was also warm and congealed, which was a letdown since I like my food hot. Overall, the experience didn't wow me, and I wasn't impressed with the restaurant. read more

This was my first time visiting The Flying Biscuit and it was decent. We started off with an appetizer: Show Me the Money and that set the tone for everything else. It was absolutely delicious! The server recommended it and I'm happy she did. The entrees I ordered were okay, but I really enjoyed the biscuit w/the sweet cream and apple butter. If that biscuit would have been nasty, just throw the whole restaurant name away! The server was extremely attentive. She kept my coffee cup full and made sure to stop by the table frequently to see if we needed anything. The restaurant was decorated super cute! Tons of wall paintings to look at and the space had nice vibe. As for parking, you can either park across the street or in the limited parking spots they have available in front of the restaurant. Great spot for breakfast/brunch that's not going to break your bank. You should definitely give them a try! read more

The Flying Biscuit is one of my favorite breakfast spots! I got the Hangover Hash with no egg which comes with a biscuit. This dish is flavorful and I always get to have the extras for another day.

Pretty good if I must say. This place should be called the good grits because they are the highlight of the meal. The biscuit are ok but nothing spectacular. The bacon really needed to be cooked longer and the eggs were good. I did try the chicken from the chicken and waffles and again ok. This is a solid place to grab breakfast. Overall the food did what it needed to do. It isn't something I would go out of my way to get but I wouldn't be mad if I was in the neighborhood and we stopped here to eat. read more

I've been to numerous restaurants that specialize in biscuits. I was excited to try this place. After reading the reviews I'm not sure where you guys ate that reviewed it so high or if it's rigged cause the food was beyond underwhelming. The moon dust potato's were cold and dry. My pancake was rubbery, not kidding it took some effort to cut it. Now let's get to the cheese & biscuit, the biscuit bottom was ok, the top was dry, the chicken patty was thin and i didn't realize i was getting a slice of cheese and not the melted cheese that was advertised. The coffee was cold. Overall experience the waitress was nice but the food is a joke. Seriously stay away. Overpriced microwave food. No joke i would rather eat the Golden Arches breakfast. read more

Loved this place for breakfast/brunch. Parking was either on the street or they have a few designated spots for use. The service was awesome. No complaints. Food was delicious but I agree with the other reviewers. They need a different type of syrup. It had no flavor and wasn't sweet at all. The next time I would bring my own log cabin syrup for the French toast or pancakes. The grits were soo yummy and creamy!! Also I didn't know that they didn't have a liquor license. So no mimosas to go with your food if you would like. I don't think anyone else mentioned this. Overall it's yummy food and good service! read more

Our waiter was really nice and super patient. We had our toddler with us and the staff was really accommodating. The restaurant was really clean and orderly. The food was great. The grits were super creamy and worth their award winning title. My only complaint is that my pancake took a very long time to come out after all the other food. I also never received the biscuit I ordered. The restaurant wasn't busy at all so I'm not sure what the hold up was on the pancake. The taste of the pancake made up for the wait because it was one of the top 3 best pancakes Ive ever had. It's not pictured because I ate it so quickly once it finally arrived. read more

Food was well with the bike ride we committed to from the Thompson Hotel. We enjoyed omelette with their famous biscuits.

Super cute place with very tasty food. I had the avocado toast which was perfect. My friend had the eggs Benedict. Also tried the biscuits - these are no ordinary biscuits, light and fluffy inside with a crispy crust on the outside served with cranberry apple butter. One of the best biscuits ever had, in the top 10. Also tried the donut holes with powdered sugar and crème anglaise. Not my fav, expected something more like a beignet but it's a cake donut. My friend liked it. Awesome service, super friendly team. Recommend trying out this place it's super unique and the decor is so cozy and fun. Tip: the entrance is on Canal Street, across from Cidercade, first floor of the apartment complex, not on Navigation as the address shows. read more
