I have been meaning to try this place out but being on a constant diet bc youre a fat bastard makes it difficult. Seeing as how its bulking season, I finally had a chance to give it a shot and boy am I glad I did. This is probably my new favorite breakfast spot. Its not perfect, but its still great. We got the Cooter's benedict...which isnt really a Benedict but more just biscuits and gravy. The sausage was surprisingly hand made! I couldn't believe it. Usually most places just give you pre-made Jimmy Dean's type of sausages. My wife doesnt like sausage in general and she actually loves the sausage here. The country potatoes are something that I skip almost everytime from every single breakfast spot, but for what is probably the first time ever, they were actually seasoned! Whatever person thought that just putting oil, onions, and bell peppers in a pan for a few minutes and the serving it should be castrated. The plate could have used more gravy, but the biscuits were so fluffy they basically fell apart and weren't dry and hard like some places. And you know how some places charge to split a plate? Not here! We also got the stuffed French toast which was just as great. The toast wasn't too eggy, plenty of scratch made whipped cream, and weren't skimpy on the blueberries either. Also wasn't overstuffed where all you could taste was cream cheese. I did try the homemade looking jam, but I would say its a bit concerning. I cant imagine them cleaning out the container after every table leaves and you never know what type of person before you is in the jar. All in all, this is the new default breakfast spot for sure. read more

Nope. Not sure why this place has the score it does, but it is NOT a 4.3. A 2.5 maybe. Chicken and waffles - yuck. Over fried and flavorless chicken, cloyingly sweet waffles with dissolving texture. Chorizo and eggs were ok, but the hash browns were greasy and also over cooked. Will not come back. read more

My client and I needed some delicious brunch after running errands all morning and she told me to pick where we should go. After a few minutes, I drive us from E. Roseville Parkway & Douglas, all the way to Granite Rock Grille in Rocklin because I remembered how delicious my last visit here were. We arrived at 1 p.m, an hour before closing and we sat at a large booth right away. After being served waters, a server came by and took our order. My client ordered a Denver Omelet with country potatoes and rye toast off the senior menu. I ordered a C & C omelet with country potatoes with a biscuit & gravy. While we waited for our food to arrive, I admired the American flag mural on the wall. It is cute and country in here and I absolutely love it! Even the bathrooms are painted with a country theme! Our food arrived and after snapping a few pics, I noticed the biscuits & gravy was not hot on my first bite. So I skipped that until our server came back. She got me a new one right away. The temperature was better, but it felt like they only warmed up the gravy. My C & C Omelet comes with 3 eggs, mushrooms, spinach, bacon, cream cheese and regular cheese. It was honestly the best tasting omelet anyone has ever made for me! The cream cheese was weird, but in a good way. It did have a sort of dry edge on one bite, but otherwise, it was a perfectly fluffy homemade looking omelet. The country potatoes are red potatoes with bell peppers and onion. Delicious! It was a lot of food for us. My client took home one of my biscuits and half of her brunch as did I. We had great service and delicious food... I think we are going to make this our spot! read more

Have always loved the food here...so as usual we went on Mothers Day for breakfast. I wait all year to get their prime rib steak breakfast...to my disappointment we were told it wasn't ready yet and would be a 40 min wait. I went ahead and ordered something else. I think when a restaurant opens their door they should have everything ready to serve? It's the day after and I am still disappointed...Won't make that mistake again. Doors open at 6:30 and this steak wouldn't be ready to order till 7:30? read more

What a cute local gem! This place is very quaint. The servers are all very friendly and helpful. It was very cute and seemed like a 'local hangout' for many people. We had breakfast and ordered 3 different plates. The pancakes were large and delicious. They also go all out making sure everything is perfect. The syrup is even warmed up! The vegetarian skillet was so yummy! It is large and very filling!! The final item was a linguica omelette. The taste was fantastic but the linguica was a bit overcooked which makes it more difficult to chew, however w everything else it was still quite tasty. Overall it was all fantastic and we will definitely try it again! read more

Great comfort food. Large servings great service. Very friendly. Breakfast is the best!

We were warmly greeted. Our service was excellent! Our food was very good. My husband said we may have found our new breakfast place! read more

Meeting a girlfriend for breakfast, she recommended Granite Rock Grille. This no-frills, comfort food diner was exactly what we were looking for. Seated in a comfy booth, she went with her regular order of a gluten-free waffle and chicken apple sausage. I was craving breakfast comfort food goodness, so I decided to try the corned beef hash with scrambled eggs and hashbrowns. The corned beef hash was tasty and plentiful. The hashbrowns were crispy and golden brown. And the side biscuit was massive! It was so buttery and flaky. So if you're looking for good food, reasonable prices, large portions, and friendly service, come check out Granite Rock Grille. read more

I have to come to Rocklin a few times a year for work. I always wanted to try this place, but never had time. But this time I did! I got there really early and was seated immediately. The woman who was there was nice and very attentive, she was also hella patient with me while I was staring at the menu. I ended up getting the omelet and biscuits w/ gravy. The food was good and I was way too full. I should have not eaten that before a full day of work. lol. There's parking on the side and the decor is hella Americana which was cool. read more

Why is iced tea better with an iced tea spoon? Why??! I don't know, but it is. Something about vigorously stirring in the sugar makes it better. This is a great breakfast place. It has good value senior options for senior family members. I always get the veggie omelette and it's very good. Big iced tea around, large portions, GREAT service. One star off for the flies. Terrible last time, only a little annoying this time, maybe they are solving the problem. I recommend! read more

I ordered lunch today from Granite Rock Grille via DoorDash. What I received was good. My Lexi's Tuna Stuffed Avocado was fresh, large and well packaged. The Tuna was tasty, and it complemented the rest of the Salad very well. It consisted of lettuce, hardboiled egg, red onion and cabbage, radish and croutons. I will order again. Cost competitive. read more

Heard about this place awhile ago but finally got a chance to try it. Arrived around 11 am on a weekday. We got seated immediately and there were lots of open tables. Came with a friend. I ordered the chicken fried steak. My friend got a side of corned beef and a cinnamon roll. Portions are large and a good deal for the price! The corned beef is fresh rather than canned which is great. The cinnamon roll I massive and the size of the entire dinner plate! My chicken fried steak was crispy and cooked well. I ordered a biscuit with it which was also twice the size of a normal biscuit. The menu is massive. The servers were attentive and I would return to try other foods. read more

Granite Rock Grille - J&J Taco Omelette - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Rocklin, California

Dannnnnnnng! This place is everything I love. The waitresses were the kind that don't let your coffee cup empty and they call you honey! I absolutely loved the service I mean 10 stars but I need to get right to the point.... From the very first bite I knew that this place knew how to season food! The food was home cooked and full of flavour. Although me and my cousin did NOT get the lightest fare... it wasn't greasy or too heavy... it was delicious and well balanced. I have one regret, I was really wanting to order a piece of toast because the jam on the table looked like the kind my granny used to jar every year:) The look of the restaurant wasn't fancy but it was cozy and I loved the American feel. Also check out the salsa wall... yep the wall:) read more

Try out this local breakfast and lunch diner for the first time. Parking is a little bit of a challenge so make sure to arrive early for breakfast. There is a private parking lot with limited spaces. The menu is quite large, with a wide variety of breakfast and lunch options. I ordered the mushroom and cheese omelette with hashbrowns. Everything was cooked to perfection however did like a little bit of flavor. The toast was fresh and the coffee was hot. My son ordered the breakfast special consistconsisted of two eggs, country potatoes sausage, bacon, and ham. Along with two very big pancakes that tasted absolutely delicious. I would definitely love to come back to try their lunches. The service was friendly and fast. read more

Can't believe I haven't reviewed this place yet. We are here all the time! The food is consistently delicious, service is great with amazing staff, and the only thing I don't love here is the coffee. Plus their Gluten Free Waffle is UNBEATABLE! read more

Their food is awesome and the wait staff is too. It's busy but wonderful, my favorite breakfast/brunch restaurant.

So, 15 years later and the food and service is still great. The size of the portions are huge, more than one person (at least I) can eat. Would love to see a little smaller portion (at a reduced price) however. read more

Great food and ambiance, friendly staff. %^"::;$$@#%&&*[$$'cc f s egg uujhffgh 85 characters lol

The food is terrific, the prices are reasonable and the portions are very satisfying. The interior is very welcoming. The flavors were consistent and their daily soups were delicious with our halve sandwiches. The homemade biscuit was so light and flaky especially with their homemade jams. My sister and I ate there for breakfast and lunch many times while visiting Rocklin. Our server, Rebecca, was always very pleasant and thoughtful. Her excellent service always made our visit and meals delicious! read more

Other than the OJ which was bitter, the food was fine. However, the bfast came to $27 for 2 eggs 3 strips of bacon, toast and hash browns. I know eating out has gotten expensive, but give me a break. That's insane. I might have expected this in SF, New York or any other big city, but after all this is Rocklin Needless to say I won't be going back anytime soon. read more

I still hold firm on my previous review. However, I did select the homemade biscuit over toast this time, and I'm so glad I did!! The biscuit is a meal unto itself, fluffy and so darn good. It is super humongous. Never skip it as I did last time. Otherwise, the place looks the same with very good and competent service. It seems like the people working here have done so for a very long time. I had forgotten how extensive the menu is for breakfast! There has to be something for everyone, but don't expect anything too creative or low in calories. My choice for this meal was the Santa Fe scramble with home fries. It was an abundant meal and very well prepared. I enjoyed it. The scramble came with a side of salsa that looked and tasted more the consistency of Ketchup. Breakfast is $15. or so, but the portions are very large and filling. I wouldn't rank it at the top of my breakfast places, but it is competent and good when in the mood for a big breakfast of very typical 'greasy spoon' fare. read more

Good old fashioned Country Cafe! Biscuits and gravy, Eggs and bacon, hot coffee and flap jacks! Saucy waitresses who can work, chew gum, and keep up a banter if solicited. Omelettes are big and so are all portions. Kitschy decorating and homey foods sums it up! Go! read more

Gotta love a comfortable family-style restaurant where most of the items on the menu are named after a customer or staff. Great breakfast menu that's gonna take you awhile to go through, so grab a cup of coffee and take your time. The food is a 3-star, everything solid and flavorful - the service and atmosphere moves it to 4-star. There's even a whole line of mimosas for those wanting to do weekend brunch ... and if I were to start a line of specialty foods, I'd use the same of one of their items for it ... Chubby's low fat !!! read more

Granite Rock Grille - Corned beef hash - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Rocklin, California

Not for me. They are not really able to accommodate gluten-free needs. And the very first time I called there which was a long time ago, I had spent 30 minutes trying to call and finally just drove over there to find out the phone had been off the hook. I will not eat here again, unless they are able to have better accommodations. It is an a cute area though. read more

Came in with a big party and was our first time here. Service was great. Unfortunately the food was not. The reviews made this place look promising so pretty disappointed. French toast was burnt and the full stack portion is small. Chicken for the waffles was not good at all ordered a breakfast burrito instead and that was not good either. Bacon not crispy Potato's extremely salty Eggs had no flavor Everyone had something they disliked about their food. Definitely not worth $262. Definitely won't be coming back. read more

Rocklin staple for breakfast if it's not to busy. I enjoy trying something different every time but I really like the strawberry waffle.

Amazing huge portions and great friendly service. The place is cute and cozy and very busy. The freshly made biscuits are so delicious and the country gravy is some of the best I have ever had. Will definitely be coming back! read more

Went back today and everything was great. Biscuit just right. Hashbrowns cooked to perfection.

Tried out this spot recently. It's a diner that doesn't pretend to be anything but eclectic and charming (with murals and well worn booths). The portions were generous and the food was great. Separate conpliment for the fluffiest biscuits around. Already made plans to sample more next time we are in the area. read more

Food was decent but the price was pretty high for the quality of the food. Service was attentive but a little harsh from the wait staff. I was surprised how busy they were with what appeared to be regulars based on the $70.00 bill for a family of 4 (two kids under 10). Chicken and waffles were 6/10, waffle was good, chicken quality was pretty low. Pancake was decent but bacon was over cooked with noticeable black charring on it. Soda is served in a huge cup, the cup is 150% the diameter of a normal cup. read more
