    Lil Biscuit & gravy on the side, not smothered on the biscuit.
    Martha G.

    Had a nice experience for breakfast on Sunday morning after church service. My sister ordered the Lil Biscuit & gravy on the side. The potatoes are often overlooked, but she stated they were as good as everything else on the plate. I ordered the special: Chicken N Waffle. The waffle was crispy and good. I have always had a piece of chicken on top of the waffle but they had 2 wings and 2 drumettes which was very odd to me. Overall, the restaurant has everything we look for - yummy food, friendly and efficient service and it was clean.

    Red white and blue waffles and French toast breakfast
    Rachel L.

    Came here on Saturday morning and was quickly sat at a table with my boyfriend. I was craving a sweet breakfast and was kind of disappointed by the limited choices. I was super intrigued by the red white and blue waffles that they were promoting at the front so I ordered that, and my bf got the French toast breakfast. The food came shortly after we ordered and it was so delicious. The red white and blue waffles was super yummy, I was a little bit sad that they ran out of blueberries that day, but the chef gave me extra strawberries :+). I appreciate our waitress for checking up on us so often, the ambiance here is so lively and positive. I will definitely come again to eat the red white and blue waffles and try the mimosa.

    I've been in Sac a year and this has become OUR SPOT!!! We bring everyone here when they visit. 10s across the board for service, atmosphere, food, music. It's always on point!!!

    Great service, food was delicious and generously portioned. Don't be fooled by the location. Once you walk in you'll know that this is the spot for brunch! I love that it's not just breakfast items. I got a club sandwich with onion rings. The coffee refill was on point.

    Next to the Little Caesars parking lot. The restaurant isn't that big, BUT their plates are ‍ and the prices are reasonable. The staff is nice and attentive. The food was flavorful and a decent amount. We will definitely come back.

    Nice presentation

    Service is always on point. Early burs specials are one-of the best in town and just the right amount of food that will leave you satisfied and not sleepy I cant say enough good things about this place!

    I have cancer, so I chose to replace the fried food that came with my meal with fruit because I'm trying to eat healthier. Unfortunately, the fruit I received was old and in very poor condition, which was extremely disappointing. I also asked for an extra toast and waited for about 30 minutes, but it never came. I asked three different employees about it, and unfortunately, no one seemed to care or follow up. I'm very disappointed with both the quality of the food and the service. I paid more and expected much better.

    Chicken Fried Steak XL, pancakes & Mamba Mimosa

    Went here with my family (Party of 13) for my birthday brunch. The staff are welcoming, friendly and quick. The food was delicious. This is a great spot for breakfast and we'll definitely be back.

    Came here on Labor Day Monday with a group of seven, and we had such a great experience. The service was prompt, the wait time was short, and everything came out fresh and hot. I ordered the chicken fried steak and it was amazing - perfectly cooked and full of flavor. The mango mimosa was an even better addition, and honestly, I'd come back just for that. Every main dish also came with a side of fluffy pancakes, which were spot-on and made the meal feel complete. Now, I'll say the aesthetic isn't the fanciest, but that's not what you come here for. You come here for the service and the food, and they absolutely delivered on both. One detail that really stood out: my niece wanted a gumball from the machine by the register, and I didn't have a quarter. The young man at the register was kind enough to hand her one - such a small gesture, but it really showed how welcoming and family-friendly this spot is. Safe to say we left a good tip, and we'll definitely be back.

    I'm from out of town and have been here twice - once during the weekend (when there's a wait time) and once during the weekday (around 8am when there was plenty of seating. This place is the perfect breakfast spot. Big portions, tasty food, great service. This is also a great place for brunch with PLENTY of mimosa offerings. There's lots of places to sit but again during the weekend it gets busy but thankfully it is attached to a parking lot. All in all come here for good ol' diner food! PS: special shout out to their huge pancakes and their hollandaise sauce!

    California omelette

    Amazing amazing amazing! What an amazing brunch we had today at Hot Off the Griddle. Heather was super attentive to us. We ordered the California and the Southwestern omelettes. The hashbrowns and biscuit were delicious. The service was quick and the food was hot and delicious. It gives family dining. Like everyone is a regular! Loved it. 9/10

    Had the pleasure of having breakfast here at Hot Off the Griddle. Our server was so nice and down to earth. We were greeted and were given water and menu. Let me say first , the portions are very very generous here. You will walk out full. I ordered an Eggs Benedict and wow, it was huge for breakfast. But I gobbled it all, well most of it lol. The eggs were cooked perfectly, nice a yolky as they should. The ham was thick. So very good. My potato bits were seasoned nicely and the dish had a side of fruits which was just the topper. I was very satisfied after my meal and with the service. Will have to come back when I'm in Sacramento. Plenty of seating inside and has a pretty chill vibe. There wasn't any loud music of that sort. It was pleasant eating breakfast here.

    Solid breakfast place up north. I always seek a new spot to try on my early days, so this was perfect. In my opinion, this place is good, not great. My corned beef and hash was definitely not standard or the store bought variety, but it was slow cooked for 6 hrs and I appreciated that. The potatoes were well seasoned, but I prefer them to be crispier. Eggs are eggs. I always opt for an extra egg for the protein and to balance out the meal better. The biscuit was definitely made in house, but was a little dry for my taste. It was still palatable. They have a nice menu and place seemed pretty packed for a Wednesday late morning. The service is simple and quick. They have a very large counter area that I sat at and really liked. You have quite a bit of space. I took a video for you guys to appreciate the vibe. It's pretty straightforward, The food is definitely a little elevated, but not "knock your socks" off great, but that's okay. I think this is a great option for breakfast for Natomas natives or people nearby. Rec'd: corned beef hash, HOTG Benedict, and the chicken friend steak

    Are you still offering outside dining? If yes, when is the best time to come to guarantee a seat outside? Thanks!

    No small place, don't see we one would seat out side

    Do they serve bacon alternative like turkey bacon, etc?

    Why don't the waiters wear masks?

    They do wear masks

    Are they open for outside dining these days?

    Absolutely. We have plenty of outdoor seating!

    Yes, they do catering and host events as well

    Can you order to go?

    Always!

    Do they make a thanksgiving sandwich?

    Not this year Zach. We couldn't get the smoker going because of the rain this year so no Turkey. Just our normal house made Turkey breast for our sandwiches.

    What is the noise level here and is the piped in music bothersome?

    Low, I get there when they open and I have not heard any piped in music.

Very pretty interior, comfortable booths. Our server was really sweet and the bartender was fantastic too. They were out of the liqueur needed for the spritz my friend ordered so he made her a special drink and when she didn't love it he made her a different one entirely. They also comped the drink which was nice. My blackberry margarita was made well, fairly strong. We both enjoyed our food. She got the breakfast tacos and liked them. I got the chicken and waffles. The chicken was nice and crispy and I really enjoyed the variety of fruit served on the side. The one star off is pretty much entirely for the extremely pale and lackluster waffle I was served. It looked and tasted like an undercooked Eggo and I was surprised they were serving something like it at all. Basically the only (but slightly glaring) fault of the meal. Overall we would definitely go back. Not sure why it's not a more popular spot for brunch. I hope they figure out their waffle situation but other than that very enjoyable experience.

We were told how the menu worked, you order at the window take your number, seat yourself and they come and find you. Then that the specials are rotating and that if you see something there you should order it because chances are you won't see it again. We thanked the gentleman and looked over the menu and thought it over and then ordered our food. My hubby's catfish with okra and red beans and rice came out rather quickly as did the side of hush puppies. We liked the hush puppies they were pretty much perfect however they didn't come with a sauce NOW they didn't need a sauce but there wasn't any offering of one either which I've never seen and I just found that odd. The catfish was pretty much perfect. Fried to perfection and lost the muddy flavor catfish can have it was light and seasoned nicely with a small Kick to it. The okra was also nicely cooked but he was not a fan of the red beans and rice. They did however bring out a complimentary tasting side of greens that were delicious!! My daughter and I shared the special garlic noodles with shrimp and a whole crab - I was ok not great but it had technical flaws. The noodles were over cooked and everything was over seasoned to the point that it ruined the dish which saddened me because I was very much looking forward to this - when I come home one of the first things I eat is garlic noodles and this one if it would've been tended just a little more closely could've been great. Less garlic and garlic salt, noodles cooked about a minute less and the use of butter and olive oil to cook the seafood and then incorporate the noodles to carry the flavors together because they didn't taste like they were cooked together but like they were put together after being prepared separately.
