Nashville Hot Chicken Biscuit
J E.

I travel an awful lot and I always enjoy trying a new, fun, unique, and interesting breakfast joint... So, on one of my frequent visits to the Overland park/Leawood area I stopped in here for breakfast. Getting there about 40 mins after they opened for the day, they were far from busy, and by the time I left, there were many more tables sat. Service was decent at the bar. I ordered a cup of coffee, which comes with a carafe and I chose their Nashville Hote Chicken Biscuit with their home style potatoes done with onions, green peppers, and cheese. I wanted to try their sausage gravy, so I asked for aside of that as well. The potatoes were the first thing I tried and while the cheese was melted on them, the potatoes were lukewarm. There wasn't much flavor from the addition of the other items, so I only ate a few and then was done with the side item. Next I tried the chicken biscuit. The crown of the biscuit broke as soon as I touched it with my fork and it was somewhat cool, far from fresh and hot, especially for first thing in the morning. The chicken itself was insanely hot, fresh, and the seasoning on it was incredible! Nice and spicy and very tasty, but beware, the thickness of the chicken is that which seems to have been cut in half, far from thick. The breading for the fry was great too. Next, I tried their sausage gravy and it was really basic, nothing flavorful or thick or seasoned about it. Really boring. Overall - this place has great potential and maybe it does better on other days, but I gave it a try and since I don't live in this area, I most definitely wouldn't return when back in town.

Took my kids here. Mentioned it was my son's 3rd birthday. Asked if they do anything for birthdays, but no big deal if not. Never got an answer. Pancake kid's meal: $7.99. Comes with 6 mini pancakes, 2 sausage rounds, and a drink. ....then the bill comes. $3.00 upcharge to add strawberries and bananas to the pancakes. $0.50 upcharge for CHOCOLATE SYRUP $1.00 upcharge for apple juice. The only "free" drink is milk or soda and my kid is allergic to dairy and is too young for soda. The only thing above mentioned on the menu was the ridiculous drink upcharge. The others upcharges? Not a peep from the waitress. When I asked her about it, she agreed it was ridiculous, but that was it. Boxed up half his lunch to bring home as a snack. He insists on carrying the to go box outside himself (because he's a big kid now). Spills everything on the floor. While I don't expect free hand outs by any means, any sort of offer to replace his very expensive, sneaky upcharged birthday meal would have been nice.

When you have a bunch of family in town and it dawns on you that you'll need a restaurant for brunch that can accommodate around 20 people you really have two options: try to find someplace that is big enough (and kid friendly enough) to deal with a massive group, or get bagels or donuts for home. Feeling adventurous my family decided to roll the dice on option one. Knowing that more than half the party would be children this eliminated several of my favorite brunch places, and couple that with the size of our party, you are really looking at either chains like IHOP or very few other places that cater towards families. Enter the Big Biscuit. If you aren't familiar with the BIg Biscuit it's a local chain that has popped up everywhere around the KC metro over the past few years. It's kind of like a local version of an IHOP in my opinion. The food is a bit fresher, the service a bit better, but the food in general is somewhat similar to me. Now, back to our experience. My husband called ahead since we had such a massive party and they said it would be no problem, so we made a kind of reservation and mosied our way over. We were the first to arrive and the place was HOPPING. It was a Sunday, the Chiefs were playing later that day in a big game, and folks were wanting to get their brunch on. We found the host and he said he was told we would be there an hour earlier so there was a communication issue between the person who took our reservation on the phone and the host. What really impressed me though, was how he handled it. What would have been a really stressful situation for just about anyone, he managed to handle with so much grace. He turned to us and said it would be no problem, that it might be a few minutes but that he was going to work on getting our massive group of 20 seated as soon as he could. And he did! When I say this place was busy I'm not exaggerating. I'm not even sure how he did it. Once we all got seated, they had great options for kids, everyone was happy and our server was 10/10 amazing. I had a half order of biscuits and gravy which were honestly very average, but I think for most people they would be super enjoyable. My daughter had chicken fingers which she loved, and my husband had an omelette which he said was great. Overall I think the food here is about 3 stars but the service and ability to work with families and kids is 5. So, 4 stars is about right. We will absolutely be back and I'm so grateful locally owned businesses like this exist in our metro!

Laredo bowl, hash browns, and a biscuit

Had a great breakfast with a friend at the big biscuit. It was a Sunday around 9:30, and we were able to get a table right away. Our server was great. I got the Laredo bowl and it was delicious! I highly recommend it. With a biscuit, which was also delicious. I got a side of hash browns as well, but I wish they would have been crispier. Our food came out really fast. It was a good, solid meal!

The service was a little slower than normal, but the food was definitely on point!! This is my go to breakfast joint whenever I'm in the KC area. I'll be back!

I don't remember what I got but it was the egg white something.

Easy to find off of 87th, the space is not huge, but there's plenty of seating, especially at the bar. Daily specials and a happy hour that runs until 6 PM during the week, so there is plenty from which to choose. Burger night (Mondays?) is $2 off the specialty burgers, and I recommend that Diablo Burger if you like a little heat. Sliced jalapeños & pineapple atop a 1/2 lb. burger with a sweet heat sauce, this burger will hit just right. Service is friendly and fast and the prices are right on par with the market. You can get in and out with a couple of burgers and a couple of drinks during special time for around $45 and that's a pretty good deal with a better value to boot. If you have a kid at SM West, then you might make this a pre-game event spot or a place to have refreshments afterwards. Great spot!

I have learned to order extra bacon with my BLT as it is one of the exceptions to the "ample portion" rule. I generally give this place a 4 or 5 stars, but as I am rating this particular experience, it only warrants a 3, due to the lack of attention from our server. We were seated promptly, as always, and our server greated us in a timely fashion. I ordered eggs over easy with biscuits and gravy. I usually have bacon, because theirs is so good, but opted for sausage as our server said the gravy had little sausage, when I asked. Now here's where it gets disappointing. My biscuits, which were huge, had very little gravy, but I didn't get a chance to find out just how little until I moved the tops over to the side, by which time our server had already left. I had finished my eggs, which were perfect, hoping she would return and I could ask for more gravy, but she never made eye contact the two times she passed our table. When she did stop by to ask if we wanted more coffee, she walked away as soon as my wife said no thank you. I started to ask for the gravy, but as soon as she heard the word "no", she was off without a backward glance. When she passed back by, I tried to make eye contact, but she kept her gaze foward and wouldn't look my way. As this is one of my favorite places, I will definitely return, but ask for a different server if seated at this ones table.

The burrito was also really good, packed full. Chose chorizo as the meat and it was very tasty. Also tried the lemon ricotta pancakes which were the perfect amount of sweet and zest. They're regular pancakes topped with a raspberry sauce and lemon zest. I would definitely come back but aim for an outdoor seat.
