Food was good, but the outstanding service from aubri made my experience so much better

Let's me grab an old school breakfast, a skully bowl, extra pan of biscuits...matter of fact let me get the whole menu. Love this location, close to home, and nice to have good seating without long waits. Love the one in Summerville but Columbia location has this home school vibe that's is a little less nosy and home. What don't we eat...we visit for the fried green tomato's and pimento cheese, old school breakfast with extra chicken sausage, grits and white cheddar scrambled eggs yummy. My daughter always gets the Bird and Belgian waffle but she tried the new sausage egg and cheese on a Blueberry Biscuit...chefs kiss. Can't say enough and love the location and service. read more

Vicious Biscuit - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Columbia, South Carolina

So Vicious Biscuit has been on my list of places I had to visit for the last year. Anytime I drive by on the weekend the parking lot is FILLED and there's a line out the door. My husband took me here the other day- it was a weekday so we were able to place our orders and find a seat immediately. The way it works is you place your order first and from there are given a number and you are able to find a table. Now coming on a Wednesday morning it was totally different and I was so glad I didn't have to fight the crowds. Service here was super friendly so my 3.5 stars does not regret service one bit. However I've just found over and over since moving here a year ago that prices don't really match the portion sizes. My husband ordered a drink, the crab benny on a biscuit, I got the shrimp and grits and was torn between the sweet puppies or the beignets- the girl at the register recommended beignets so off course I went with that. Now the good- the shrimp and grits was a real portion that came with perfectly cooked shrimp, super creamy and cheesy grits and a homemade biscuit my meal itself was a 4.5/5. I also loved the condiment bar with all the different butter and jam options. Now my husbands crab benny- the crab cake was a good size but it was literally just that and nothing else. The flavor was good but portion was tiny. And the beignets were truly god awful- overly fried hockey pucks drowned in whipped cream and strawberry jam- again a tiny portion. I will say though the biscuits here were delicious as well- delicious but not a place I would come back to as a first choice if I have my whole family just me and my husband spent $60 which for the sizes I feel it didn't match the price . read more

Great brunch stop at Vicious Biscuit in Columbia! The shrimp and grits biscuit was full of flavor -- perfectly seasoned shrimp over creamy grits with that signature fluffy biscuit tying everything together. It was rich, savory, and very satisfying. The Old School Breakfast with pancakes hit all the comfort-food notes. The pancakes were fluffy and filling, and everything came out hot and fresh. Service was friendly and the vibe was fun and casual. Definitely a solid go-to spot in Columbia for a hearty Southern-style breakfast or brunch. read more

I ordered the Beignet. I enjoyed the toppings but for me for the price paid it was overrated. The grits was nice and creamy. I'd order that over and over again. The hostess was nice and efficiently address my concerns. read more

Staff are very friendly and helpful. I haven't been here since it was the pizza joint. You order at counter. The lady was very helpful in walking me through everything. They even have dark roast coffee. The restaurant is clean and the staff is on top of it as soon as someone leaves they start cleaning the table and sweeping under the table. The whole staff that i made contact with was awesome. read more

If you're anywhere near a Vicious Biscuit, do yourself a favor and stop in--you won't regret it! The biscuits are HUGE, fluffy, and loaded with flavor, and the combinations are as creative as they are delicious. Everything tastes fresh and made with care, from the toppings to the spreads (don't skip the signature jams and butters--they're a must-try!). The atmosphere is fun and inviting, and the staff makes you feel like family the moment you walk in. Portions are generous, so come hungry or be ready to take some home. It's the perfect spot for brunch, comfort food cravings, or just treating yourself to something next-level. Vicious Biscuit takes the idea of a "biscuit place" and turns it into an unforgettable food experience. Highly recommend--you'll be hooked after your first bite! read more

I love love the atmosphere. Cool design and vibe. However for my visit the food wasn't the greatest. I ordered huevos rancheros. The presentation was superb, BUT it was cold! I wanted a nice hot breakfast. The biscuit was yummy but the egg was 'snotty' meaning the white wasn't cooked in addition to being cold. The avocado was NOT ripe. So while it was a cool place my food was less than mediocre. Also bacon for my grandson overcooked. read more

Stopped in on our drive home from Charleston and very glad we did. Got the SEC, the gravy train, pancakes, and a parfait. Everything was fantastic and the biscuits were huge. Clean restaurant and service was quick and friendly. Only thing I didn't love was the "jam bar" where all the biscuit toppings were kind of out in the open. read more

While in Columbia on a Thursday morning, we stopped in for brunch. Vicious Biscuit is in a great little spot on Forest Drive. When we walked in, it was busy but there were still seats available inside as well as outside on the cute little patio. We usually eat at Vicious Biscuit in Summerville so we were excited to try another location. We did not wait too long in line to order. We decided on the fried green 'maters to share and I wanted an extra biscuit. My husband ordered his favorite biscuit, the Viscous. We waited a bit for the food but it gave us time to peruse the butters and jellies available on the bar. I settled on the apple pie jelly and the sweet potato butter. When the food came, it was hot and definitely looked delicious. The fried green tomatoes were perfectly crispy and the creamy pimento cheese and tasty bacon jam were an amazing combination. My husband enjoyed the tangy pickled okra as well. The Vicious biscuit was the highlight of the meal with its spicy gravy and crisp fried chicken. The flaky biscuits are always fabulous alone but are next level with the flavored butter and sweet jelly options. When in Columbia, we will definitely make the trip to visit again! read more

I normally always do to go. The best part about this place is the amount of jams and jellies they have to complement your biscuit. Like they totally take your biscuit to the next level. This place can get crowded on weekends, so plan accordingly read more

Visited SC for the holidays and this place was recommended. It gave a cozy atmosphere, and was welcoming to our large group. I ordered the HEN SOLO and a mimosa which came out fairly quick and looked like the pictures on the website. read more

Great biscuits...plenty of food for sure! Oder at counter and take a seat. They'll bring you your food. Jelly and butter bar with several different flavors.

Visited this location on a local recommendation while staying at a downtown hotel. Arrived before 8am on a Tuesday morning & went to the counter to place my order after reviewing the large overhead posted menu. We were greeted with a friendly smile & my order was taken efficiently & quickly. I ordered the Gravy Train & my wife had the Crabby Benny with Egg & 2x medium fresh brewed iced teas. After 3-4 minutes our made to order breakfast arrived at our table. The sausage gravy completely covered the big as a "cat head" biscuit in a medium size bowl. The biscuit was flaky & buttery. The gravy was hot, luscious & very creamy. It was awesome! My wife had the Crabby Benny with a fried egg. The biscuit was perfect and the crab meat added a classy touch & tasted out of this world. The restaurant has large booths & 2x & 4x top tables to dine. The overall impression is clean, bright & friendly. Overall, the breakfast was truly wonderful. I highly recommend this breakfast spot. read more

Vicious biscuits was delicious! The service was fast and they greeted us and answer any questions that we had. They had a lot of seating and the restaurant was clean and provided a lot of napkins and utensils. The food was delicious, but some of the people I was with said that it could be a little bit warmer. Majority of us try the shrimp and grits and we all enjoyed it. read more

Today was my first time at a Vicious Biscuit, and a great experience! On a Saturday (late) morning, there was a line out the door. Luckily, it moved relatively quickly and gave us time to look at the menu. I ordered The Fat Boy and the friendly man at the counter recommended I get a Fried Green Tomato with it, so I did. We snagged a table right away to wait for our food. The interior had awesome branding with signage reading "Body by Biscuit" and "Son of a Biscuit". They also had boards with funny quotes from customer reviews. The ambiance was very casual. They also had a self-serve "Jam Bar", with all different kinds of jams and butters, such as sweet potato butter, apple pie, peach habanero, maple bourbon butter, etc. The food took a while to come out, but they were super busy. The Fat Boy was a very generous portion size, and absolutely delicious. The buttermilk biscuit was not dry at all, the fried chicken was juicy, and the pimento cheese and hot honey drizzle went great together. I also really liked the Fried Green Tomato. My friend got the Skully Squad Special and a Jalapeño Biscuit on the side, and said both of these were great. Both the blueberry ghost and blackberry jam I tried from the Jam Bar were very tasty, and I took some sweet potato butter to-go. Overall, we left happy and very full - would return! read more

We decided to give this place a try last weekend and boy are we glad we did. We ordered a couple different items from the menu and both items exceeded our expectations. The entire staff was very friendly and helpful and the place was packed early on a Saturday Morning. We both agree that we will return another time... read more

This place does not bus tables when they have a line out the door. When you ask them to bus the table they get an attitude with you like it's not their job. Really bad service, might be better as a take out place because they can't handle the traffic read more

If you haven't been to Vicious Biscuit Forest Acres, don't walk... run! We ordered the sweet puppies, bird and Belgian (chicken and waffle), the Hen Solo (chicken biscuit), and caramel iced coffee. Everything was DELICIOUS. The chicken was perfectly seasoned. The biscuits were huge and dense but fluffy. The coffee was great. They have a flavored butter bar with different jams as well. Everything we tried exceeded expectations. The staff was also super friendly. Go ahead and go now. read more

Vicious Biscuit delivers again! Having tried this place in Mount Pleasant we came here before moving into the dorms. The line was out of the door and wait a bit long but so worth it! I ordered the gluten free biscuit w egg whites, bacon, hot honey and cheese.

I have been waiting on Vicious Biscuit since my visit to the Summerville location. I finally had the opportunity to stop in for a morning breakfast. There is a parking lot, and even though it was just about full, parking wasn't too bad. There's outside seating and also a decent amount of space for indoor seating. Once you enter, you stand in line to order. You're able to look at menus while you wait. The line was to the door; however, the wait was not too long. Once you order, you take your number and find a seat.  I loved that there is a jam and whatnot bar as well as a place to make your coffee and get your drinks. The customer service was really great, and I appreciated it. The staff will bring your food to your table, even if you're outside. The outside space is covered and pretty comfortable. Also, the flies were not too bad, and the seating was clean. The staff will also get anything you need for your meal once they bring it to you. The food I ordered was chicken and sweet potato waffle, as well as a café latte. I thought the café latte was pretty expensive considering it was kind of basic and standard size. However, it was pretty good.  I received two fried chicken breasts, which were a great size, and I really appreciated them. Nice and crispy hot, really good. It was not too much seasoning. However, the chicken was still good, especially with the hot sauce. The sweet potato waffle was really good as well. They did bring me just about half a waffle because they say that's how the dough is and it's hard to determine when it's poured. However, it's not OK to not receive a full waffle. I did bring it to the attention of the attention of the staff, and after they provided the above explanation, which I know they did replace with another one, which I appreciate. They should have never sent the first one out. All in all, it was a good experience, and I'm glad to have a Vicious Biscuit locally. read more

I was supposed to go to another brunch spot on Forest Drive but realized they closed at my meeting time of 1:30. I looked for brunch spots near me and Vicious Biscuit came up. The reviews were good and the menu had items I definitely wanted to try. This is an order and sit-down spot, so no reservations are needed, but this place stays busy so plan accordingly. The cashier was on point with recommendations and let it be known that eggs on a menu item can be made any way you like. The food was delivered in a timely manner and was delicious! I found this spot on a whim, but will definitely be back. read more

Stopped by this gem early this morning! First time going and it was an awesome choice! The food was amazingly portioned. The combination went very well and the orange juice was my favorite! Freshly squeezed with nothing added. The young ladies working were attentive to me and helpful with what to choose off the menu. The manager came out after i was finished to check how everything went which i was very appreciative of. The atmosphere was a very relaxed but social place. If you're in the area definitely give this place a try. read more

Eight of our ROMEO group went here today. Got there around 11:15 and the line was about 5-6 ahead of our group. The menu selection is quite large so it takes a while to figure out what you want, especially if it's your first time there. We had three orders for the Vicious Benny (Ham, biscuit, eggs and Hollandaise sauce), two orders for the Silence of the Hams, 1 order of the Huevos Rancheros, one Nashville Hot Chicken, one Hen Solo and an order of Vicious Beignets. The Vicious Benny was excellent. All three liked it and the eggs were done perfectly with a nice sized thick piece of ham. The Hollandaise sauce was great. The best "Eggs" Benedict that we've had In town. The Huevos Rancheros looked great. He said it was excellent and I'll probably try that next time I go back. Everybody liked the food and our ratings were from one 4.0 to four 5.0's. The Beignets are not quite what we were expecting, if you're familiar with Cafe Du Monde beignets in New Orleans. These were fried and. had a crisp crust and four beignets came in a bowl with strawberries and whipped cream in the center. The beignets had cinnamon and were good, just not what most of us were expecting. Service was great. We happened to hit the place at a busy time, but once we were seated the line was gone. From 11:45 to 12:45 there wasn't much of a line. I'm pretty sure most of us will be going back. Very nice place. read more

Nice location and friendly staff. The building has been completely redone since the last restaurant that was in this location. There's plenty of parking and an easy ordering system that filters customers through the middle for order placement. We enjoyed the food and the pricing was in line with what we expected for a breakfast place like this. It was nice to have alternative options like yogurt and oatmeal if you wanted a lighter meal. Both dishes came with fruit and honey. It was delicious! The portions were also right on to serve as a main dish. We had to order a biscuit while there since it is called Vicious Biscuit. It was the only item that I wouldn't max out at 5 stars. Don't get me wrong, the biscuit was huge!! It also still retained some moisture so that it didn't tase dried out. I just didn't care for the amount of salt I tasted when eating it. Without a filler like sausage or jelly, there was nothing to mask the saltiness and it was tough to handle. However all in all I enjoyed the place and will be back. It's easy to enjoy breakfast foods, especially when they get your food out as fast as this crew. read more

Visited a NC location years ago and loved it!!! This location was good. My food was good but chicken was just a tad bit over done and could've used a little more hot honey sauce.

Only downside was EVERY free table needed to be wiped down!!!!!!!!!!! read more

Up until this morning I could "Viciously" protest that I am NOT a biscuit fan....up until this morning. A friend treated me to breakfast, and I was leaning toward the beignets until I saw the Sausage gravy biscuit. I thought, "What the heck. I will try it." I am not disappointed. In fact I am blown away. This is by far the best biscuit and gravy I have ever had in my life, and I have been around awhile. Keep up the great work. You have converted a biscuit hater to a biscuit lover, as long as it's from Vicious Biscuit. Thank you!! read more

Wow! This place is amazing. I had the Gravy Train with a side of bacon. I did not need the bacon because it had a piece of sausage inside the biscuit. The service was great and very friendly. But, I must mention the ambience of the restaurant. Just plain fabulous. It's witty, sharp, and cheerful. I love this food. read more

Very ambitious and tasty menu for a spin on biscuits and traditional southern cuisine. Staff is soo friendly, that they make Chick Fil-a seem indifferent If going for Sunday brunch, the life hack is to go at 2:30, and you get right in. While the prices are VERY reasonable, it's awesome that they still offer discounts for military and law enforcement. read more

The Forest Dr store is nice, with lots of indoor/outdoor seating and very clean, and a good amount of parking too. The hard rock music was a tad loud at 7 am but that is a personal feeling, not a criticism. The staff were upbeat and helpful all around. The food was good! I've been back twice...the fried green tomatoes were crunchy and well seasoned and came with a side of ranch. You can order individual slices rather than a full appetizer! (the appetizer comes with pimento cheese and I think okra) The "custom bowl" I made had grits, fried chicken, eggs, and cheddar cheese - generous portion size and a good deal price wise.. I even tried a side biscuit to try the butter and jelly bar - fluffy, nice size, and most importantly well baked/baked through.The standout accompaniment for me was the maple burbon butter, but regular butter (fluffy and easy to spread) and the variety of jams were nice to try. And of course GOOD coffee to wash it down! Great addition to the area and will definitely be back again! read more
