    Giant biscuit for the road
    Joy Z.

    Amazing moist hot fresh and huge! Stayed fresh the next day because it was so big I couldn't finish. The peach habanero jam was also delicious! Cute place with tables for dine in too. Coffee was just ok.

    This place was on my list for quite some time after my friend said we should go and now finally that happened. The place is cute with it looking like a little shack on the side of the road. You go inside and you see all these trinkets and other random items that contribute to a home like feel. It's a small place but the layout made it so that there was a decent amount of seating. You order at a register and then they bring out your food. The workers there were really nice and seemed cool and down to earth. The biscuits are huge! I didn't expect them to be as big as they were but it was a pleasant surprise! They were great quality with the biscuits being nice and fluffy. The sweet and savory mixture just worked so well. Come hungry as they are nice and filling. Definitely would come back!

    Food was pretty good. The biscuits are huge and very soft on the inside and good crust on the outside. I had the Willie Lee and it was not quite what I was expecting, but still pretty good. I think the jam threw me off a little, was expecting something sweet but it was a tart jam. My hubby had the the Gus and the gravy on that was pretty good. Service was friendly and pretty quick considering it was busy. Very clean on the inside, had indoor and outdoor seating. I think coming here next time I'm going to split a dish. Definitely a dense meal, but still tastey.

    Seattle biscuit company has been on my list for a a while. There's not a lot of parking around but you maybe able to find a spot. It's not too big inside but there's plenty of counter seating and also some tables. You order at the front and they'll give you a number and bring out your food. The food comes out pretty fast and the portion is big for 1 person. Overall I would come back if I was in the area or craving a good biscuit. Staff: 4/5 Sanitation: 4/5 Gus (5/5) I got the Gus with just the chicken and gravy. The gravy was an andouille sausage gravy or at least had some Cajun tasting spices to it. The biscuit was huge and soft and pillowy. It all came together really nicely and the chicken was very seasoned. Willie Lee (5/5) This was an interesting combination that I have not tried before. It is definitely more of that sweet savory flavor profile and the jam was tasty as well. The biscuit again was super soft and fluffy and one of the better ones in the Seattle area.

    Photos do no Justice to the massive size of the biscuits made in house and served up here. Service was stellar with accommodating our hungry group of 7 fresh off planes from SeaTac. Food arrived quickly piping hot and fresh. The Varner ($15) hit the spot with the andouille sausage, egg, & beechers cheese. While I enjoyed the biscuit innards smothered in all the helpings it was a bit dry if not paired with something. I also had hoped for a little more kick from the peach-habanero jam but nothing a bit of Tabasco couldn't fix. We sat outside as there were already large parties occupying the inside table seating and the open bar top seating wouldn't fit us all. Not an issue though coming from Texas the Seattle weather was worth every moment to be outside! Parking was a bit confusing at first, but I'm assuming they share it with the coffee house next door as that's where we ended up.

    Look at how much butter they use

    I haven't eaten many biscuits since moving to Seattle even though I grew up devouring them in the South. It's mostly because I find the large majority of biscuit places on the West Coast to be subpar - either dense and dry inside, or too similar to cake, like the baker substituted cake flour for good old fashioned White Lily. When I saw a bunch of people recommend Seattle Biscuit Company, I decided to give them a try. The first time I visited a biscuit place in the PNW a ton of people recommended, Pine State Biscuits in Portland for reference, I came out extremely disappointed. Hopefully this time would be different. I have to say, pricing is a bit ridiculous here. Just as a comparison point, the special fried chicken biscuit here is $27. The fried chicken biscuit at the place I grew up eating at is currently $5. The plain biscuit is $7 here vs. $1.29 there. Is it worth the price? I started out with a plain biscuit to judge their basic building block: Plain Biscuit ($7) - These are massive biscuits, around half a pound in weight, easily dwarfing the size of 90% of other biscuits. The smell wafting out of the paper wrapper smells heavenly with the aroma butter and flour. The taste reminds me of my childhood growing up in the South. It's distinctively buttery and salty, warm and comforting, almost spot on in taste as compared to say, Bojangles. A lot of places on the West Coast don't add enough salt or butter, making the biscuit taste unpleasantly alkaline. This one has no issues at all in the flavor department. The bake on the biscuit is fantastic, leaving the exterior with a crisp crust all around, while the inside still remains moist and fluffy. It's not particularly layered or flaky, and the interior, while fluffy, has a bit more developed gluten, making it just slightly chewy and slightly denser than perfection. When trying to split by hand, it doesn't split cleanly and instead chunks, especially in the center. Yet it's moist and doesn't crumble apart easily. These biscuits stand on their own and don't need any accompaniment to be enjoyed. Out of all the biscuits I've eaten on the West Coast so far (15+ places), this one tastes the most like a good Southern biscuit. (5/5) I was impressed enough with the biscuit that I revisited the week afterwards to try a sandwich: Gus ($27) - This sandwich seems very expensive until the plate comes out. In between the giant biscuit comes two pieces of fried chicken breast (or perhaps one piece filleted into two). It's breaded and fried generally well - the outside is definitely crisp, although it doesn't adhere that well to the chicken and slides off very readily. The interior of the chicken is nice. I usually expect chicken breast to be dry, but this one is relatively moist, not dried out at all. The breading tastes sweet and salty. I wonder if they brine the chicken in sweet tea. Each side of the biscuit is slathered with a bit of sweet mustard and peppered with pickle slices, giving some acidity to cut through the sausage gravy fat. Between the pickles and the sweet breading, it reminds me of the flavor of a Chick-fil-A chicken sandwich. The sandwich is served on a bed of orange-colored sausage gravy. It's thick and rich, although perhaps a little on the floury side. There's plenty of sausage mixed in, giving a ton of meaty depth combined with black pepper and spices. In terms of portion size, my wife and I shared this sandwich and we had trouble finishing it. It's definitely enough for two people, which makes the pricing a little more palatable. (5/5) Sweet Tea ($5) - This one is definitely on the sweeter side compared to what I make at home. The tea doesn't have much astringency but it does have a nice generic black tea flavor. There aren't that many places in Seattle to get sweet tea, so I'd say it's passable. I did purchase additional plain biscuits as well and I have to say texture-wise, they are similar, but these new ones tasted distinctively less buttery than before. I think there might be some consistency issues although this second batch is still really good. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the biscuits served at Seattle Biscuit Kitchen. I will definitely be revisiting in the future for more. Bathrooms - Two unisex rooms.

    So many people have told me about Seattle Biscuit Company and I've never made the trip, but after hearing about their recent break ins, we decided to go support them. I'm sad it took me this long to go try this amazing place because wow. I ordered the Gus and it was so much food! Well worth the price because it will feed two or one really hungry person. The place is small and they won't let you order until they can seat you. I appreciate that because we don't have to hover over other people eating to try and rush them. Everyone in the establishment was super nice and kept checking in on us. I'll definitely be back more often to try other items on the menu. They run out of biscuits close to closing so make sure to show up early!

    Passed this place plenty of times not knowing what lied within. Biscuits yes, but big ones! filled with, bacon, jam, cheese and more or in my case chicken. Stopped in here with my friend and we both got "The Gus" (though all of the options sound good) so it welcomes a follow up visit. The biscuit sandwich includes "Signature fried chicken, egg, sausage gravy, pickles, Walla Walla sweet onion mustard". Boy did this thing slap. Come hungry for this thing. We also got a couple of Tang mimosas to complete the brunch. I was almost defeated by it as one of the front servers brought over to go containers for my friend and I, but we were not going out like that! There are about 10 of the biscuit breakfast sandwiches to choose from and they all sound pretty good. Options definitely aren't limited here, even offering a vegetarian option. They also have bar as well as coffee so it's the complete package as far as good brunch eating. Definitely would like to try another Biscuit sandwich here.

    The staff was excellent from the moment we walked in. You place your order at the counter and sit yourself. I loved the self-service coffee counter. I felt at home preparing coffee just the way I like it. I ordered the Willie Lee biscuit because the house berry jam caught my attention. I also ordered the grits and gravy. The biscuit was my favorite! My boyfriend had the Big Al, and I had the opportunity to try it, and it was delicious. I kept picking at his plate. Haha Our waitress was so friendly and overall excellent. The restrooms were clean and in great shape. This restaurant is a cozy place to have breakfast. I highly recommend you stop by.

    From the moment we walked into Seattle Biscuit Company, we felt like returning home, even before the first warm biscuit arrived. The atmosphere is a delightful mix of rustic charm and friendly familiarity, with sunlight-dappled tables and cozy booth nooks that invite you to linger. We kicked things off with a perfectly roasted coffee and bubbly mimosas, simple pleasures elevated by quality and care. Between sips, conversation flowed and biscuits arrived: the Che Biscuit (with Beecher's cheese, bacon, ham, sweet onion mustard, apple butter, and pickles) was a flavor-packed showstopper, savory, tangy, and utterly comforting. The plain biscuit, paired with butter and berry jam, was equally delightful in its elegant simplicity, warm, flaky, buttery bliss. What resonated even more than the food was the kind-hearted service. Our waitress, proudly hailing from New Orleans, brought grace and warmth to every moment, her genuine sweetness made us feel like we were visiting dear friends, not just grabbing brunch. Her touch elevated the meal to something memorably special. Seattle Biscuit Company truly serves comfort in every bite and genuine hospitality in every interaction. Whether you're craving a biscuit masterpiece or just a peaceful spot to savor good food with loved ones, this place feels like home with biscuits. Full five stars, no question. The Tipsy Traveler

    In my opinion, the best biscuits in Seattle! Fluffy without being overly buttery/oily and the topping options are a winner! They have some parking up front and they have indoor and outdoor seating available. We placed our order at the register and took a seat. Service was really friendly! I got the biscuit with honey and butter and it was fantastic! The biscuit was fluffy and quite large! My husband got the fried chicken and gravy biscuit which was huge! Chicken was delicious and so was the gravy! Highly recommend their biscuits! It really made our Sunday morning wonderful!

    Super large biscuits that were crisp, flakey, and warm indicating they were freshly baked! I just got the standard biscuit with butter and berry jam. My partner tried the Che which was a monster to eat but it was also delicious. I'd recommend requesting for some hot sauce to put on the savory sandwiches as well! Also we ordered and were helped by the loveliest lady-- it really rounded out the experience to feel extra homey and casual. Highly recommend coming to try this spot!

We ordered 3 chicken dinners, BBQ chicken sandwich dinner, and a waffle on the side. So GOOD! The Kool Aide was dangerous... I wanted more. It was perfect. Great customer, comfortable, enjoyable environment. We really enjoyed our first visit here. Thank you! We are originally from Long Beach, Ca. So my family especially my grandma can cook so I am very picky but everything was just like back at home. I appreciate a hot meal that is worth the wait. We will hopefully make it back up this way again for another yummy dinner. I need to try the dessert next time and or the margaritas! Also I was reading some of the reviews. When I eat soul food in Washington I stick to the basics. I love catfish but I'm super picky with catfish, cornbread, and grits. Everyone likes it differently. The friend chicken, BBQ chicken sandwich, yams, Mac & cheese, mashed potatoes were VERY GOOD! Yams are all different too depending where you go but they make theirs like my grandma. Sweet, soft, and juicy. So loved it.

It is a cute, quaint Restaurant. I ordered the Fried Chicken, 7 pieces, with Greens and Mac-N-Cheese and cornbread. The chicken was fried to perfection. The Greens were good but I don't like the stems. The Mac was really good oh and the Cornbread was moist and tasty. I also ordered the Sweet Tea which was good. I give my meal a 9/10. My Cousin ordered the Gumbou and Rice and Red Beans and Rice and she also ordered Apple Pie which turned out to be Peach pie. She said the Gumbou was a 9/10, Red Beans and Rice 2/10, they tasted like Pepper no other Seasonings. As for the Pie she said it was ok being that the crust was hard and also thinking it was Apple. Maybe the Dessert should be labeled. Customer Service was Above and Beyond he was so nice and took his time explaining everything we asked him about. The dining area was very clean with really nice Decor gracing the walls. There is a code to the Bathroom which is located outside of the Restaurant through the doors, down the stairs and there it is. It was clean.

Mama in here always knows best when you don't know what to eat cause she never disappoints!

    First time at this establishment I was excited. It's been on my list of places to try in Seattle…read more I was really looking forward to supporting a community that is part of the LGBTQIA+ they are also a family business well-known in the community and of color. The restaurant is very clean, was greeted by two servers working, friendly atmosphere, noise level was average and it's a smaller establishment, please keep that in mind. We ordered the french fries which are shoestring fries, side of catfish, a side of red beans and rice, and a side plate of fried green tomatoes, which comes with four bite-size pieces. Being from the south born and raised, I'm a particular about my catfish and even though the breading had flavor, the catfish to me did not taste very clean plus there was a hair stuck to the breading of the catfish. It wasn't a small hair. The mystery hair either fell in the oil or it was in the batter is my guess. Because when I went to break the catfish apart, that is when it sprung the rest of it out, there was a small curl tip sticking out of the top of the fish. Unfortunately, the green tomatoes had absolutely no flavor. I will say the red beans and rice had the most flavor. I could taste the seasoning and the spice with a little bit of heat. I also really appreciate that there was some veggies mixed in with some meat as well. The shoestring fries it's either a hit for some or a miss and for me it was a miss, but I've had lots of different kinds of shoestring fries from multiple locations, and different states. It's a hard one to make. They were fried crispy and excellent. I would say it's more of the seasoning that was a dislike. The decor throughout the restaurant was beautiful to view. There are photos of the owners their family and friends. Not only could I see the love and commitment put into this restaurant, but also I could feel it as soon as I walked in. My takeaway is for the cooks to wear hairnets and if they have beards, to also put nets on their beards to further prevent hairs falling into people's food. Fried green tomatoes are not an item that can be found at most restaurants. It's easy to make but definitely the seasoning on it could be improved. Also, possibly just going simple with the seasoning like salt and a little pepper on the shoestring fries, sometimes keeping it simple is the best. A topic I want to touch on, not because I got it, but because going through the reviews prior to coming not too many people were discussing the waffles and this was a direct witness of what I could see. I did not taste it so I can't describe how the waffles tasted, but they look like they were cooked golden brown, which was nice but they are I would say more on the thinner side than what I usually see at places that serve chicken and waffles. If you are reading this review and you are looking for a place that serves you a nice thick waffle please do not come here because you will be disappointed, and I do not want people being disappointed when they are looking for something in particular and they end up ordering something that they did not want. Besides my recommendations, as I mentioned, this is a place that is full of love and commitment and I appreciate the community that has supported this establishment. It is not easy keeping a restaurant open and it's even harder these days being a person of color to even have your own establishment. As always, my friends be safe out there. Thank you for reading this review and I'll see you at my next bite *=*

The clams and mussels with Lao sausage were hands down my favorite dish - so savory, unique, and packed with flavor. I know it would be something my mom would have loved to try! The collard greens with neck bone meat were another standout. Every bite was unforgettable. The wait here is no joke, so I highly recommend making a reservation. I think we waited an hour and half to get seats for two, but worth it! We were fortunate enough to be seated after closing, and despite the long wait, the staff remained incredibly kind, welcoming, and accommodating. Their hospitality made the experience even more special. So shoutout to the staff! The only dish that didn't wow me was the trout - it was a little mild and could've used a squeeze of lemon to brighten the flavors. But honestly, everything else was some of the best food I've had in a long time! And I am a real foodie. If you appreciate cultural fusion, Communion is an absolute must visit in Seattle!

The Food: Blackened Salmon, $33 - 5 Stars Menu: Salmon, corn soubise, fried plantains, fried okra We both wanted this as our main dish, so this is a 2X. The salmon is perfectly seasoned and grilled. You can SEE the seasoning on the fish. So glad they included pieces of okra. The frying/searing gives it the perfect chew. Fried Green Tomatoes, $15 - 5 Stars Menu: Green tomatoes, panko, egg, onion, Buddha's belly seasoning This dish is known as their must order. I have no clue what Buddha's belly seasoning is, but I can tell you it is tasty. Fried green tomatoes is a perfect southern dish (and I will always think about the movie). Wings, Jerk seasoning, $18 - 5 Stars Like many, we're suckers for wings. Even better if the seasoning is different. Jerk wings is rightfully popular, here. The sauce is generously applied, and every bit is delicious. The flavorful foods will have me returning for sure!

    This place is one of a kind and so delicious for Carribean and Jamaican cuisine! If you have not…read moretried -- you must! We were celebrating my colleagues birthday the day before and were going to see a show at the Royal Room! We got drinks and I had the caprihlana and the Carribean Star! The Carribean Star is a MUST- TRY, the flavors of that drink were amazing! Both the tostones and shrimp ceviche for appetizers was out of this world! The fried catfish was breaded and crisped perfectly and their sides, especially the collard greens are tasty, a bit tangy and phenomenal! I was able to sample my coworkers dishes (they offered of course and I did too) and the goat curry -- try this too if you like curry! Such amazing flavor and tender goat! They do not take reservations but it's peak around dinner time and weekends! We got lucky with the last big table! The menu is creative and colorful. Staff is amazing! They actually had a location in Kirkland but had to close it and this location remains and is a HIT!

    Decided to try Island Soul with my Cousin today located in South Seattle on Rainier Avenue. Also…read moreknow to many as Columbia City. We decided to sit in the Bar Area. The atmosphere was quiet with really good music playing. I order the Chicken and Waffles 7/10. My Cousin ordered the Jamacian Rundown with Shrimp and Rice and a side of Greens. Her dish is listed as a Vegan meal. It has broccoli, cauliflower, onions and Brussels sprouts and a sweet sauce. 9/10. I also had a Mexican Coke. The Customer Service was ok. He almost forgot my Coke. I understand there were other Patrons but we told him it was our First time. We had to keep calling him over to explain the actual dishes. Parking is only street parking. I would come again to try some of the other dishes they have to offer but I will sit in a Booth.
