the flying biscuit cafe

decent breakfast joint. i usually do the oatmeal pancakes with peach compote or the flying biscuit breakfast with chicken sausage (a little spicy)eggshow you want them, a biscuit and grits which are good. they have good apple butter too. the service is good and they serve you quite fast. i would not recommend the turkey hash. one of our friends had this and it is not the typical hash, it came iseggssunny side up on top of several chunky pieces of turkey and huge chunks of potatoes., not finely chopped like you might think of hash being.
she was not pleased with the dish. but overall, it's a good place for breakfast.

i keep coming back. but there are some problems. everytime we ask for scrambledeggssoft, they come back hard. you could lift it like an omelette. we usually send it back 2-3 times. sometimes, my wife says nothing and sets it aside. for that we get a credit. but it's soo stupid. just make them right the first time. the hasbrown potatoes taste like cardboard, but the grits are great.
i love the scrambled tofu, so i guess we will keep coming back, but sure wish they would get better in the kitchen. we do love and thank the wait staff.

perfection. while visiting atlanta this past weekend, my girlfriend and i ate a late breakfast at the flying biscuit. the place is popular, we had to wait about 20 minutes for a table at 2:00 pm on a saturday. the food was 100% worth the wait. i have eaten grits all my life, and my girlfriend doesn't even like grits, but both of us were floored by the truly "creamy dreamy" grits. the pumpkin pancakes with icing were amazing, and theeggsand biscuits were great. one complaint is that they evidently do not have real bacon, but only turkey bacon. ordinarily i would consider this sacrilege, but the other food is so good i didn't even miss the bacon.

the steak andeggsare awesome.

decent food, good atmosphere. friends took me here for brunch on a trip to charlotte. there was a 20 minute wait for a table, which wasn't bad. i ordered the turkey hash, with turkey pot roast twoeggsover medium, cheddar cheese and rosemary potatoes. the turkey wasn't mixed in with the potatoes, the way i usually picture corned beef hash, but was instead piled on top of the potatoes, then topped with theeggsand cheese. not necessarily bad, just a different presentation. i'm not sure if it was the turkey or the potatoes, but the seasoning was overpowering - not sure if it was the salt or the rosemary, but the more i ate, the more i became unable to continue. i actually left more than half the potatoes, something i never do, because the seasoning was too much. i had to steal my daughter's apple juice to rinse the taste, and three hours later i was dying of thirst.

my daughter had the oatmeal pancake and turkey bacon. the bacon was a bit too crisp, but entirely edible. the oatmeal pancake was thick, and seemed a tad bit underdone, but my daughter seemed to enjoy it.

the biscuits were huge and lightly dusted with sugar, just enough for a hint of sweetness with out tasting like a dessert biscuit. the apple butter available on the table was yummy.

started my easter sunday with breakfast at the flying biscuit cafe . im not usually awake early enough to even consider breakfast but today was the exception. i ordered the egg-ceptionaleggswhich came with....

so rare for me to find a restaurant i don't like. i was impressed at the beginning when a worker who was finished with her shift an leaving, took the time to seat me and hand me a menu. but the waitress who was taking my order took her time coming to me. granted it might have been busy; nit sure if she is the only waitress working. i ordered the high flyer, which, according to the menu was "two large farm fresheggsserved with our signature chicken breakfast sausage, creamy dreamy grits, plus an organic oatmeal pancake topped with warm peac compote and served with maple syrup". theireggswere fine, not sure if they were large. their "signature" chicken sausage was not impressive. they were tough and looked more store bought frozen sausage just heated up. i had choices to substitute for the grits and i ordered a cup if fresh fruit. should have gone with the grits since i didn't get them until i asked for them. the oatmeal pancake was good but i was expecting it to actually come topped with the peach compote instead of the compote being put in a separate cup placed next to the pancake. this confused me because i thought my cup of "fresh fruit" was a cup of "store bought peaches in syrup". the real fresh fruit, which they are, took a long time coming to. overall experience was rather disappointing.
