I heard this restaurant was great. I had to try. I wouldnt consider it great. Breakfast at Hardees would be comparable. Scallions on biscuits and sausage gravy with burnt hash browns. Gravy was definitely not homemade and the Biscuits are hard. Over priced as well. Restaurant is outdated. Not very clean. We were a party of 8 and we were seated where food was laying on the floor.

The food is very good, but the service is outstanding. Ive been there twice, their shrimp is amazing. And the service has been really exceptional. My only reservation is a lot of the food is sort of high-calorie ish. But if you are careful in making your selections you can still get good food that wont take up your entire calories for the whole day.

Have been there twice now and my meal and service were very pleasant. On the second visit I brought eleven others from our motorcycle riding group. All said they enjoyed the food and the friendly and helpful staff as well.

First time here and everything was good. It has now become my favorite place for breakfast. There is so much to choose from on the menu and you will have a tough time deciding but as my granddaughter said try something new every time you come. Solid advice which I plan to take.

Cassie was as amazing as the food. Bayou biscuits was a favorite for him but son of a biscuit had satisfied my craving. Best biscuits ever. And have to mention the very berry margarita that was so refreshing served with fresh berries. Can’t drink just one! Love this place and worth any drive you may have.

My new favorite brunch and breakfast spot! Went to Twisted Biscuit for the first time on Sunday. It was busy, but their offer of half-price mimosas and bloody marys while you wait helped the time pass quickly. I ordered the Bayou Benedict with jalapeno and cheddar biscuits. It was scrumptious! My husband had a half order of sausage gravy and sage biscuits and it was the best Ive ever tasted! Their hashbrowns were cooked to perfection. It was so good I went back today for lunch and had a salad with their house vinaigrette and it was topped with fried grouper. It was yummy and really fresh. Theres covered seating outside for those that are concerned about covid. Prior to eating here, my favorite biscuit place was the famous Pine State Biscuit in Portland, but this little diner topped it.

Arrived here at around 1:00, and they were PACKED. Even though they were obviously under heavy load at the time, they were very efficient cleaning and setting up tables directly after the guests had left. We were seated around 15 minutes after arriving, and after 5 minutes we had our drinks and orders in. Took around 20 minutes for food to get to us, which is pretty impressive considering every table was full. I ordered the Debris Burger, and it was amazing. The brisket was perfect, only complaint would be the tomato had almost to flavor to it, but that wasnt really my concern. The Texas Hash was also probably the best Ive had. The biscuits were perfect, not super crumbly, but also not sticky and super moist. Best Ive had in a long time. Seems like best time to come is around 1:30-2 when the crowd has thinned out decently. Definitely returning soon for more! 😄

Oh my God! This place was sooooo good! Service was amazing, food came out super quick and was done to perfection and the mimosas were the perfect cherry on top.

Weve eaten here twice. Both times everyones food was excellent. The biscuits come in multiple flavors and all of the ones we tried were delicious. Everything made from scratch daily. The country fried steak was the best Ive had. Definitely a step above average. An out of the way gem worth the drive to get to

I called in a to go order yesterday at Twisted Biscuit Diner. The lady that answered the phone and took my order was very friendly!She told me my food would be ready in 10 minutes. I arrived within the 10 minutes time frame paid for my order and went to my vehicle. I paid $10.26 for 2 biscuits with gravy! Which was a bit pricey! It’s called the Slap your momma biscuits! The biscuits have cheese and bacon inside. I like the creativity for the biscuits with the bacon and cheese but obviously it was not that good to slap your momma! No where close! I didn’t have enough gravy to eat with my biscuits! Diced tomatoes, green onions, bacons bits, cheese and gravy was on top of the biscuits. My food wasn’t even that Hot when I got to my car.

This was my first visit, so my experience is limited. Let me just say.. their biscuits are to die for!!..Of course, thats their specialty. I had half order of biscuits and gravy with scrambled eggs and cheese as a side. It was great! ..the biscuit had sage seasoning which was the perfect accent to sausage gravy. Very tempted by those biscuits, on the menu, with fruit in them!! I guess this means I need to go back!Our wait, at noon on a Sunday, was about a half hour but was worth it!

We sat at the bar because it was first come first serve. The wait, we were told, was 30 minutes. But we did witness another customer complain to hostess that she was quoted 20 minutes and it had been an hour. The drinks were delicious. The service was fine. The biscuits were dense. The sausage gravy was thin and needed seasoning. We wont be going back.

Party of three and one came out wrong (pancakes instead if french toast) and one was ice cold. Tomato gravy biscuit. Waitress was so busy I had to go get her. Drink order was forgotten, had to take it off bill. Waitresses cleaned tables then set them up without washing hands. Biscuits are heavy and hard. Manager seemed oblivious oe didnt care. Will not go back.

Ive been a couple of times now since theyve opened and everything Ive tried has been amazing. Their fancy biscuits are a hit, their specials are incredible, and everything on the menu is done with flair and creativity. Servers have been good as well, but watch out for those peak hours, especially on weekends. Its a hopping spot and the wait can be pretty long when its really busy. If youre not in a hurry the food is definitely worth the wait, just know that on peak hours you could be there a while.

Review №46

The service was great. Everyone was friendly. The Texas hash and grit cakes were delicious. Unfortunately, I didnt like the biscuits. Im a true southern girl and enjoy thick, soft. fluffy biscuits that have been rolled and cut out. These biscuits are very dense, square, and not fluffy. They reminded me of cornbread. Obviously, many people like them, but theyre not for me.

Sat outside as someone was sitting inside with her dog at the table in her lap. So many flies outside it was gross. They were all over our plates and cups.The fans were on but it didnt help. The food was really good but not sure we will go back. Maybe outside doggy dining and stronger fans would have made for a very nice experience

Came for brunch with my family, and it was amazing. Since it was a holiday it was busy but we were able to get some drinks before being seated. The waitress was absolutely amazing, and the food was so tasty and unique. They have many different types of biscuits, but the base one is amazing. Would completely recommend and cant wait to come back again!

Good meal and good service. Very well organized and knowledgeable wait staff. The restaurant is very open in it design and clean. There is comfortable outdoor dining. Menu was well balanced with a number of breakfast lunch and dinner entrees but it was not overly complicated. Service was very good during my visited. Our food order was managed quickly and our meal was served hot and just exactly as ordered. I would recommend Twisted Biscuit to friends and family. I will be going back!

What a great find! Located not more than 15 min from where we live! the menu is Southern and very tasty, biscuits are the star of the menu. We had a scrambler with jalapeños.Wait staff were so great and gave us plenty of time to look over the menu. So many choices and yes, we will go back. Prices were very good. The restaurant is popular, and they did a great job of sanitizing between table settings. Sweets next time!

Disappointed, we waited about 30min to dine in for brunch on a Sunday, we finally got seated in a packed restaurant, with tables close together. The food and drinks were very good but there were flies flying all around the dining room that bothered us the entire time. That’s why I gave 3 stars :(

Review №61

Went in there a few days ago and while I dont normally write reviews I had to write one for this place. First I had the Texas Hash and the wife had the Very Berry Biscuit (I think thats what it was). The Texas Hash came out of the kitchen very hot which is the way I like it! The beef brisket was plentiful and oh-so--delicious! The potatoes and onions were cooked to perfection! Eggs were done to perfection. (more about our waiter later) The biscuit was very fluffy and seemed to be right out of the oven! My wifes berry biscuit was delicious also. At least I was told so. She wouldnt share!!! But more about the waiter Chris, I forgot his last name. His service was impeccable and spot on. He seemed to have a sixth sense about him, meeting ALL MY NEEDS!! Coffee was refilled several times and I didnt even ask. Very knowledgeable AND with a sense of humor! I will definitely be back but I hope Chris will be our waiter. GOOD JOB!!!

Started off with the best Bloody Mary that I could recall in a long time. Ordered chicken fried steak, eggs, hash browns and rye toast.Every item was cooked perfectly.

This place was BUSY. There was a line of people waiting, dining room was packed, and the patio seating was pretty full, too. We waited about 20 minutes for a table and a little longer for breakfast, which was expected given the number of diners. The staff was friendly and the food was very good. I had the Son of Biscuit - delicious. I gotta go back and try the Monkey Biscuit, because it sounded very good. Good coffee, clean all around. All staff were in masks, but not so much on the social distancing. Its a little out of my way, but I would definitely eat there again.

Review №67

The service was great, the food was good. I got the Slap Your Mama. It was okay, the bacon in the gravy was chewy, kind of grisly. The biscuits were okay, very dense, and not as fluffy as I had expected. I would not order that dish again as I expected it to be heavy, but it was slightly disappointing. I will go again and try something different. My son ordered Son of a Biscuit and he liked it. We liked the mimosas. A fun addition to breakfast we didnt expect to find there! Well give it another try soon.

We were staying at the Mission Inn Resort 5 miles away and wanted a good and reasonable priced breakfast so we found this place. It was a Sunday morning and post covid19 the parking lot was full and people were standing outside!! We got on the wait list and were #6 in line. 15 minutes later we were sat and ordered with Sandy. Food was an A+ along with the prices. $8.99 for a full breakfast!! Highly recommend and going back tomorrow.

Review №86

Came in today for lunch and noticed on the sign outside that today’s special was a brisket wrap so I figured I’d give it try. It looked good but I was wrong. The brisket was more like shredded pork when I thought it would be chunks of brisket and only got very little and to much lettuce. This is the second time I’ve been here but the first time was back in January when they were relatively new so since it’s been several months I figured id try it again but after today’s visit it will definitely be my last I hate to say.

I like the unique biscuit concepts they have and I have tried several. I will have to say that Im most impressed with their pancakes.

My husband and I ate here yesterday and was a little disappointed. I ordered the 1/2 order Sausage Gravy & Biscuit.....the gravy was so cold I had to track down my server to put in the microwave to warm up. Also the hashbrowns which we both had tasted too much of the oil they cook it in. I have to say my husbands Chicken Fried Steak was delicious and will get that the next time. Also will tell server to have them use less oil when cooking the hashbrowns. But for what we had was a little $$$ especially with 1/2 order.

We got there right at closing. Which we try not to do, but we lost track of time. 3pm on a Sunday.. Most businesses will frown and kick you out. Not here. They were super friendly and made us some food to go. The food was very good. Breakfast fare around home made biscuits. Very good. They also have all the usuals along with lunch.
