Hot Hot Chicken
Alexandria R.

The people working there were really chill and nice. I didn't interact with them much since you order and then sit down, it didn't really seem like the average waitressing kind of restaurant. The food was pretty good. I like the tater tots more than I did the biscuit. I expected it to be at least a little bit spicy because of the name and description, but it was very sweet... I'm actually thinking that they did not use hot honey and just used actual honey. The chicken also wasn't really crispy, which was kind of a bummer but the biscuit was great and the meal itself was very filling. I probably won't come here again unless I'm really craving a biscuit and don't know where else to go, but I wouldn't say the food was bad . everything was really clean and the vibe in general seemed really laid-back. It was kind of empty in there but it's location. Seems like a really cute date spot.

Sweet Potato Tots - Taco Style
zoe m.

This spot is a chill brunch/ lunch spot. It's heavy so bring your belly! But it was fresh and very good. We got sweet potato tots (taco style) honestly BOMB! French toast was sweet and tasty. And lastly a great twist on a Monte Cristo so yummm !!! For me it was a little sweet idk request a regular biscuit and some maple syrup. So I can control that. But overall we would go back for sure! If you haven't you must!

Monte Cristo Biscuit
Rachel O.

We have been here twice now when we visit Dallas and every time we are extremely happy when we leave. Their biscuits are perfect. Fluffy, buttery, and they DONT fall apart. Such a huge bonus since it's a sandwich - I don't want to fight the biscuit. The chicken on the Hoss was crispy and flavorful. The gravy could have been a little bit more flavorful but when I got enough in a bite it was perfect. The Monte Cristo is definitely sweet but all the flavors hit the mark. The service was average - but a guy outside was very helpful and personable. The outside can get messy but not terrible. Honestly don't pass it up.

Chicken and Not-A-waffle Biscuit

This was my second visit to this restaurant . The biscuits are so good the service were nice and the restaurant was clean and quiet.

Pretty good but seemed odd. No one was what I would call welcoming or friendly. They weren't unfriendly - just oddly friendly-ish. (I admit this is not a word). The food was fine and we enjoyed the meal. The place was decorated well and we were grateful for that. Not sure I would go back given the odd feeling. Also - maybe an odd time of day to eat there - but about 645p - the place was pretty much empty. Folks trickled in a few at a time. The food really was fine - and maybe we just came at an odd time - but it felt off for some reason. Almost like the place was getting ready to "close for good" and no one (else) knows it yet. "Oh - don't you know??? We"re going out of business soon..." was the vibe I got.

I was in town for a conference and needed a breakfast spot so located this one not too far from my hotel. It's an interesting spot with almost all of the menu items being biscuit themed. When o arrived it wasn't very crowded. My gps took me to the rear. But it wasn't a far walk. Most of the other business aren't open for breakfast so there was plenty of parking. Not many people dining in ask it was rather quiet inside. As soon as you come in there is a menu on the wall. You place your order at the counter and they will bring your food out to you. I went for the biscuits with gravy and a side order of the loaded taco tots. The biscuits and gravy were very filling. Biscuits were very hearty and able to stay firm even after soaking up massive amounts of gravy. Flavor of the gravy was slightly peppered and very rich. Definitely a meal that sticks with you for the day. Interesting spot if you like biscuits but I don't recommend if you are on a diet be issue you will get your full days worth of calories in one meal.

Tater Tots
Rhonda A.

This is a must visit whenever I'm in town. My favorite is their Nashville Hot Hot Chicken (though really it's not even hot, but has great flavor), the tater tots and salad. Yum!

This is a wonderful place to visit for some of the best tasting biscuits in the DFW metroplex. A warning though, the weekends are insanely crowded and it'll be hard for you to find an eating spot. I recommend weekday lunches if you can escape from the sorrowful sufferings of work. This place gives you joy to face life's woes. The biscuits themselves are fluffy, soft, and have a gentle balance between savory and sweet goodness. I personal recommend the Hot Hot Chicken if you want a mixture of mild heat added. The Biscuit Nuggets are great! It's like a mixture between a churro and a beignet topped with whipped cream. Pretty much anything you order here will be thoroughly enjoyed. On busy weekends, you also get to see the folks here handcrafting the biscuits themselves.

BUFFALO BLUE

Weekly Review Bites: Fannin County and Beyond - by Tonjah https://www.ntxe-news.com/index.shtml The Biscuit Bar promises big, buttery comfort with a bold motto: "Everything Is Better On A Biscuit." I stopped by the Plano location to see if the food lives up to the hype--and if biscuits really can make everything better. Spoiler: some bites delivered, others missed, but the biscuit itself? Absolutely worth the visit. Restaurant Review: The Biscuit Bar - Plano, TX Motto: Everything Is Better On A Biscuit This Biscuit Bar is located at 5880 State Hwy 121 #102b, Plano, TX 75024 at The Boardwalk at Granite Park, nestled among a row of other eateries & bars with outdoor seating on a waterside boardwalk. On weekends, the area comes alive with vendors and pop-ups, making it a fun spot to stroll, snack, and people-watch. The restaurant has forward-facing outdoor seating, perfect for enjoying your biscuit with a side of sunshine. But let's talk about the motto for a second: "Everything Is Better On A Biscuit." A bold claim. Is everything really better on a biscuit? Maybe not everything--but here, the biscuit is definitely pulling most of the weight. At times, it felt like the toppings were trying too hard to live up to the biscuit, and not the other way around. So no, not everything is better on a biscuit... but a lot of things sure are. Tried: The Philly: Seasoned ribeye, grilled peppers and onions, Monterey Jack, Sriracha Buffalo Blue Chicken: Southern-fried chicken, buffalo sauce, bleu cheese coleslaw Hot Hot Chicken: Southern-fried Nashville-style hot chicken, dill pickles, house-made ranch French Toast Biscuit The Good: The biscuits are the MVP--buttery, with a nice crisp crust and enough heft to hold up to whatever you pile on. The fried chicken on the Hot Hot Chicken was hands-down the best part of the meal--juicy, flavorful, and perfectly crisp. The French Toast Biscuit was the real standout--sweet, rich, and packed with flavor. Easily the most memorable bite of the day. The Not-So-Good: The fillings didn't always live up to the biscuit and felt underwhelming flavor-wise. Overall, the combos seemed like they were trying too hard to be clever but didn't quite deliver on taste. A few bites left me wishing they'd just let the biscuit shine without all the noise. The Philly sounded promising, but I was hoping for big, bold flavor--it ended up just... fine. A little confused, a little flat. Buffalo Blue Chicken--southern-fried chicken with buffalo sauce and bleu cheese coleslaw--sounded like a flavor bomb, but it fell flat. The tang and heat you'd expect just didn't show up, and the whole thing felt muted. It wasn't busy when we went--we were the only ones there. Granted, it was 4:30 PM on Easter Sunday, but the whole area itself was still crowded. The calm might appeal to some, but inside, it lacked the energy and buzz you'd expect from a spot in such a lively location. Final Take: It's a fun, niche concept with a biscuit that truly shines. I'd recommend everyone stop by at least once--especially for the breakfast-style options or that French toast biscuit. If you're going, stick to the biscuit basics. That's where they really shine.

Yum! This was a great brunch spot right on the boardwalk in Plano. I got the Monte Cristo and tots and it was delicious! will definitely be back

I loved the idea of this place because I am a big fan of biscuits. This place is more of an order at the counter and they'll bring your food to the table which is nice because it's open seating. I went on a Sunday morning with 3 girlfriends for brunch and we were lucky enough to find seats outside. I ordered the bacon, egg, and cheese biscuit and it was very dry. The biscuit itself was pretty dry and the eggs were runny. I also had their tots which was very good!! My friends ordered variations of the biscuit sandwich and they all said it was just ok. However, I have heard from others that they love this place, so it could just be a one-off that the time I came the food wasn't good. I will be back to give this place another try before I write them off completely.

The food was good the Nashville chicken on the French toast biscuit the only thing I should of did or would recommend if you get it also is to add cheese and one of the sauce you like it da thang would be hit'n boi!!!!!! Next time I will add the cheese with the sumting...the look of the place str8 too. The staff the cool

Melted whipped cream and butter
Lauren B.

The Biscuit Bar was one of my highly anticipated visits! I'm vegetarian, so my selection was limited, but I went in knowing what dishes I wanted to order. To start, the ambiance is really nice. It's hip and spacious for parties of all sizes. Everyone who was working had a good attitude and were knowledgeable about the menu. Onto the less good - the food was seriously disappointing. I got the french toast biscuit and I am uncertain if it just sat in the back for too long before being brought out, but everything was super liquid-y and melted within minutes. The butter provided on the side was completely liquid when I opened it. It was just a pool of melted butter and whipped cream underneath the biscuits. I have attached a photo of this. The tater tots were just okay, the ranch was pretty good. Everything took a long time to come out. My dad got the sweet potato tots southern style, and it came out as a heavy, mushy mess. His chicken biscuit was way overdone and barely edible. Overall, I cannot recommend The Biscuit Bar and I won't be returning. If you are looking for good biscuits, Ida Claire and Tupelo Honey are great options!

What's the wait like on the weekend?

No more than 15 min

Is there happy hour on Sunday?

No there isn't

Planning to come by in the morning. Do you have a different Brunch menu or is it the same? Thanks so much I'm advance?

Hi Mary! We offer our full menu for breakfast, lunch, brunch, and dinner. Enjoy your meal!

Is Plano store open today (02/19/2021)?

Yes! We open at 9:30 am today and close at 10 pm.

Is your Plano location open today? 2/18/21 ? We are driving from McKinney and want to make sure!

Plano open from 9:30 am today (2/18) until 8 pm! Drive safe and see you soon!!

Do they have waiters or you get your own food from inside?

It's a cafeteria type setting where you stand in line and order your food. You get a number display and the waiters will bring the food out to you. You get your own fountain drinks.

Do they have any Gluten Free options?

Yes! It's listed on their menu. U can view it online!

Gluten free options?

They were not offering any gluten free biscuits when I visited. They do have yummy tots & salads, but that just isn't the same as a biscuit sammie.

Is there typically a wait for brunch?

On the weekends yes. I went on a Sunday and the line was out the door but the food was so worth the wait

Are there any gluten free options?

Not that I'm aware of.

Do they have brunch?

The entire menu is practically brunch. Perfect for it!

Does anyone know if they use lard in the biscuits? Or what kind of shortening/butter they use?

Unfortunately I don't have this answer. Your best bet is to contact them directly.

I saw a location in Frisco near the Best Buy and Target shops but it looked closed. Is there another location?

That's a different restaurant (just called Biscuit, I think). The Biscuit Bar is on the SE corner of 121/Tollway by Blue Mesa and Union Bear.

What sodas do they serve?

Stubborn drinks! We carry the typical Cola and Diet cola and root beer, and a bunch of unique and exciting flavors - lemon berry acai (closest to sprite), big red, vanilla creme, and a few more! Definitely not your typical sodas, but I'm sure you'll… 

Do they have gluten-free options?

Unfortunately they do not!

Anyone know Biscuit Bar hours?

Monday-Wednesday: 8am - 11pm Thursday-Saturday: 8am - 12am Sunday: 8am - 10pm…

From the French Toast to the Breakfast Tacos and everything in between, the food is consistently delicious.

It was actually…read morerecommended to us by a waitress at a local restaurant that was already closing and she recommended their evening happy hour. When we checked their reviews online, it didn't look too promising, but the menu sounded amazing so we decided to come back the next day and try the food. I am so glad that we did! Every single thing we ordered was absolutely amazing. We were able to order the bucket of fried chicken for $20 off of the happy hour menu which was four boneless, skinless breaded fried chicken thighs and they came out hot and perfect! They were so good. We also ordered one Baja fish taco and we regretted not ordering more because they were really good. We also ordered the lobster Bucatini, which was an amazing flavor, but honestly a bit disappointing on the portion size, it could have come with a bit more pasta and sauce, and a piece of bread would've been nice for the sauce. We ended our meal with the crème brûlée cheesecake which I was kind of scared to order because I really love crème brûlée but I'm not a super fan of cheesecake but Earl's did it 10 out of 10 perfect! Hands-down, one of the best cheesecakes I've ever had. For the drinks, I ordered an old-fashioned and my husband ordered a Moscow mule. Both of our drinks were great, we were very impressed and will definitely be back next time. We are in Plano. Dining tip: in order to take advantage of the happy hour, whether it be for lunch or dinner, you do have to sit in the bar, lounge, and I believe the outdoor patio counts as well. Your basic dining area does not give you access to the happy hour pricing.

Getting a table for four on the patio was super easy, which was a huge plus because the weather was absolutely perfect. Parking was also a breeze with plenty of garage parking and a free valet nearby. Unfortunately, that is where the positives mostly ended. The service was really slow. I walked through the restaurant on my way to the restroom and it really did not seem busy enough to justify the wait times we experienced. Drinks took forever, food took forever, and communication was lacking throughout the meal. My friend wanted to try their new guacamole. Apparently it used to come with corn, but now it comes with some kind of salsa. Flavor-wise, it was actually really good. The problem? We got about ten chips. Not exaggerating. We asked for more and our server initially said no, then said he would ask the manager. We never heard another word about it. At one point, my friend spotted someone she thought was the manager walking around with chips, but he looked completely lost and we never ended up getting anything. Maybe those were our chips. I guess we will never know. As for the food, it was mostly underwhelming. The burger was okay. We upgraded to truffle fries and honestly could not taste any truffle at all. One of my us ordered the avocado toast and felt it desperately needed seasoning. I had the chorizo chilaquiles. The menu mentioned potatoes, which caught my attention because I thought it would be an interesting twist. What arrived was potatoes and chips together. I know chilaquiles are traditionally made with chips, but for me the combination just did not work. Ironically, the potatoes were probably the best part of the dish. The whole thing needed seasoning. What I found funny was how stingy they seemed to be with the chips for the guacamole, but then my entrée came loaded with far more chips than I needed. The standout dish was the almond pancakes with berries. Those were genuinely delicious and the only item at the table that I would definitely order again. I guess in every bad thing is a good thing, since things were slow we ended up hitting 3 PM (start of HH) We were ready to order drinks. We timed them too. It took about 20 minutes. Twenty minutes for happy hour drinks... no comment. Honestly, this is becoming a recurring theme at restaurants. Mediocre food, slow service, and no sense of urgency. The patio atmosphere is definitely the biggest draw here, and I can see why people like it. But there are plenty of places around Legacy West with nice outdoor seating. Thanks, Earl's, but this will be a one-and-done visit for us. 2 stars. The patio was great, the pancakes were excellent, and everything else ranged from forgettable to frustrating.
