We got there around 9am and were seated right away with no wait, but by the time we were leaving there was definitely a line forming. The food was fresh, flavorful, and came out quickly. I especially appreciated that they offer gluten-free options, which can be hard to find at breakfast places. The drinks were definitely a highlight--strong (in a good way) and well-made, which is always a plus! The atmosphere was fun and welcoming, and the service was friendly throughout our visit. Overall, definitely worth checking out if you're in the area and looking for a solid breakfast spot.

I had the loaded greens skillet and it was really delicious. It's a shame I can't stand raw and gritty potatoes in my mouth alongside it. My drink was good, really, really good. I had the good mooning. Definitely recommend. The atmosphere is weird, but something to note about, even if it is an absurd lateral move to a Texas roadhouse peanut room. The vibes feel like how a middleschooler would visualize a brunch place that highschoolers might frequent. By that I mean it feels like it is trying to be cool in a way that is slightly unpleasant and forced.

We both got chicken and waffles and the waffle was amazing. The chicken was chewy and would've loved to taste some more flavor with it. Eggs were the same way, little hard to eat. The prices were a great highlight of this experience, as it's less than $20 per person which includes a complimentary cinnamon roll. My friend didn't eat all of hers because she said it was a little dry. Our waitress was exceptional and very friendly. She was quick to take our order and brought out our food and drinks quickly. Family-style service on point. No notes on service. Unfortunately, didn't snap any photos for this review because I was in a hurry. I wouldn't mind giving this place a second chance.

Deliriously happy to have run across this restaurant. We were in Belton looking around and decided…read morewe needed a salad so looked up best salads near us. MO Mud Co pulled up and we headed that way. This place is decorated with what Kendall Jenner would call grandma vibes ... and I'm here for it. Amazing selection of syrups for coffee drinks, etc and an outstanding line up of desserts. We had a Rueben and a Greek salad. The meat is sliced fresh and is served in delicious bread with an abundant amount of condiments, because let's be honest if half your frig isn't condiments then what are you doing! The salad was massive, like a 3 pounder. I can't wait to go back and try their drinks and desserts. Oh yea WE WILL BE BACK!!!

The Big Biscuit gives you everything you need. The menu is extensive; the food is everything that you could expect for a breakfast joint. The Big Biscuit is clean, well lit, and an easy place to carry on a conversation and do business; it is also a great place to bring the family to kick off breakfast on the weekend. Every time we've been here, the people who greet you at the door, take care of you at the table, and take the check have all been fantastic. I say yes to the big biscuit!

My meal came out- eggs fluffy, bacon- crispy, and biscuit- just out of the frozen box into the oven to be warmed. It had that metallic, preservative taste that scream "made in a factory". I was so disappointed... what a bust. IT IS IN THE NAME... and while it was large, there was no one making a quality biscuit to put an exclamation point on the meal.

It was nice so we sat on the patio. The brunch menu is small but packs a nice variety. I ordered the tater tot bowl minus bacon add chicken tinga. It was delicious. The tots were crispy, soft scramble egg, avocado, and cheesy goodness. My companion ordered the belly burger. She said it was delicious ious too. For apps we ordered the hummus. It was good. On a previous visit, I ordered the spicy peanut noodle bowl with shrimp and the dynamite shrimp app. Yum!! Both were loaded with flavor. Forgot to take a pic. From 10-11:30 on weeekends, mimosas are $1.99. What a deal!! And of course I had to try all the flavors! Cran-orange is my fav. They have a great happy hour, daily specials, kids menu, vegetarian menu and some gf options. I will definitely be back to try the pancakes and Nashville chicken Sammy. Shout out to Mike the manager and Rey my server my making my dining experiece so very lovely. This casual spot is ideal for families with small children, couples, groups and celebrations.

Biscuits with gravy mixed with chili seasoning and brined onions to top it off? The food is something you'd definitely need to be drunk to enjoy. Service was excruciatingly slow. We had to wait 20 minutes after we received the tab to even pay so we could finally leave. Half the time our server was in the back nowhere to be found. Lots of employees chit chatting at the hosts' desk by the front door though. Ambiance is trendy. House music playing and whatnot. Cool place to try once, but not interested in returning.

I could describe every experience with this restaurant but I'll leave you with the previous few. And I know what you're thinking, if the food was so bad, why do you keep going back? Well, hope and optimism. Rooting for Roots! We want the local place to succeed, but we've come to the conclusion that what they really need in order to improve, is honest feedback. But part of me hopes that it changes nothing. And here's why... my wife and I love this place. But in a weird way... allow me to explain, imagine the place as a Saturday Night Live sketch where the staff, the menu and ambiance are unapologetically pretentious, but the food doesn't deliver on any level. It's pure entertainment. We have dinner and an inside joke. First of all, for the price, you naturally expect elevated dishes and excellent service. We both had a cocktail, a glass of wine with dinner, an appetizer, entrees, salad and desert. Around $250 with tip. Pricey, but reasonable if the place delivers. On one visit we had the duck, which was served undercooked and when we mentioned it to the waiter, she scoffed, "that's the way it's supposed to be served." So feeling duly chastised for our ignorance, we shut up and ate the duck. I don't know the organism involved, but my wife and I were up all night vying for access to the bathroom. Enough said. Things were dicey, but no trips to the hospital. Six months or so had passed and finally, last night we rolled the dice and tried Roots again. My wife said her dinner was fine. She had stuffed salmon, adequate, but not great. For me, It was between the steak and the pork belly. Now I had the steak before once and it was... well it was definitely a steak. I'm not going to say much about it except for this... if you like the taste of a good glass of water, order the steak. So having experienced the steak already, I ordered the pork belly, which is an extremely tasty and forgiving cut of meat in my experience. But somehow at Roots, they figured out how to prepare it poorly. Yikes! It was dry as a bone, but only in the places where it wasn't tough as shoe leather. It had to have sounded like a rock when it hit the plate. The naturally rich flavor was cooked completely out of it, and any surviving seasonings were successfully burned away during the cremation process. I was starving so I made a valiant effort at finishing it, but it took several glasses of water and an inordinate amount of chewing. My wife laughed at me the whole time. I offered her a bite but she demurred, quipping that it had been a long week and she simply didn't have the energy. It was served with a "slaw" that consisted primarily of a plain sliced onion and slices of flavorless apple devoid of seasoning or dressing. I honestly don't know how this dish made it out of the kitchen, let alone a chef's imagination. It has become a quest for my wife and me. Like the holy grail of dining experiences, only a few minutes from our home. Ever the optimists, we will just keep trying Roots again every six months or so and hope for better on each trip... or not. If you're looking for a unique dining experience, please try Roots. We want them to succeed so we can keep coming back and having these comically terrible experiences. If pretentious irony is your spirit animal, please try roots. And Roots, please keep trying. We will keep spending $250 bucks for "dinner" and a show. PS, to add to your experience, ask for a booth when you arrive for your reservation, they will look you up and down and politely say "no" as they walk you past 4 empty booths. No explanation...
