On the way to The Farmhouse in Gilbert a couple of weeks ago, we stumbled onto Biscuits. Being from the South, I'm always down for biscuits and gravy, so we decided to check out this cute, barn-themed restaurant. It was a little to shiny to actually exist on a farm, but welcoming, none the less. The restaurant is very clean and open and the service was friendly. We were sat immediately and received drink orders before we could decide on anything from the delicious looking menu. There were definitely some good ol' southern favorites, like grits and corned beef hash, but there were also a few chorizo options and a Portuguese sausage that my boyfriend ordered. I went for the corned beef hash, scrambled eggs, hash browns and added sausage gravy to my biscuit. Make sure you go hungry! I couldn't even dream of finishing everything I ordered, but I made sure to it all. Crispy hash browns, fluffy eggs, and big chunks of corned beef mixed with potatoes, peppers and onions. The sausage gravy was perfectly thick, but could possibly have used a bit more sausage (what can I say, I'm a meat lover!). The only thing that brings it down to 4 stars was the biscuit. It was definitely good, but more bready than flaky. More like a stirred mix than an kneaded dough with the goodness of flaky layers. And, being their namesake, I do think that part is pretty important. We were plenty stuffed and we'll definitely go back because there aren't many places with corned beef hash that didn't come out of a can. Also, they have good service, which is hard to come by. On another note, they offer a military discount to any active or inactive duty military, which is wonderful to see because it's just something small that companies can do to give thanks to people who willingly put their lives on the line every day. I can support that.
