Cascade Biscuit Kitchen

"Hole in the wall place playing Bob Dylan and Tom Petty classics while serving up delicious breakfast food. Bacon is thick and crispy, fried chicken and biscuits are cooked to perfection. Portions are large and filling. Every element is well cooked and flavorful, raspberry jam, potatoes, eggs, etc. The mimosas are tasty, strong, and cheap. Service is fast and friendly."

"Delicious breakfast. I got the gluten free meal called "No Gluten Was Harmed." The bacon was the thickest cut I've ever seen, the potatoes were perfectly crisp, and the grits were tasty. I added blueberry jam to the grits. Coffee was good too. The staff member that helped us was friendly and helpful. My daughter ordered chicken and waffles and the chicken batter was excellent. My boyfriend ordered biscuits and gravy and the gravy was amazing. The only downside was that it was freezing in the restaurant. But I'd still return again for the food and the atmosphere was overall cute."

"I was really excited to try this new breakfast spot in downtown Springfield. But damn was it a let down. I'm not sure I understand the trend towards no table service. The experience was, in a word, chaotic. Having to stand in line to order (which you have to wait until a table opens up, causing a bit of confusion as new people arrive not to mention the waiting area is the bathroom hallway), get your own (luke warm) coffee from a carafe on a stand next to the register and then you have to bus your own tables in the end (don't miss this step, the cashier will yell across the restaurant to remind you). When they got busy, they literally asked people to leave the moment they were done eating. Paying $20 per person (plus tip that we regretted giving at the time od ordering) for a meal served in a "fast food" environment that takes more than 20 minutes to be served - it's just not a pleasant dining experience. On to the food... If you want biscuits and gravy, you will be happy, but I strongly suggest getting it to go. The biscuits are fluffy and have great buttery flavor. The gravy is well seasoned and a good consistency. They do not ask how you want your eggs - so they all come out Sunnyside - which is only to say the yolk is on top. The eggs are rubbery and unevenly cooked because they sit under a heat lamp for a bit waiting to be brought to your table. The bacon is definitely good, but the sausage is pretty bland, as are the country potatoes. Portions are really big, so that's a plus, but it's just not enough to make us want to come back."

"I'm really excited about this place. I ordered a bayou biscuit and I was very surprised by the Cajun gravy. It was delicious but it overpowered almost everything else in the dish and I was a bit bummed about missing some of the other elements. I wish the gravy was served on the side so you could choose how much you wanted and so the biscuit didn't end up soggy. My friend had the Billie Nillie and it was super good! I definitely look forward to trying some of the other menu items."

"We went to this new restaurant that is blocks from our house. We were excited for southern fare and when we arrived it was hoppin'. There was a long line and people were waiting for their food. They all seem to know the owners. They called them by their first name and the owners spoke freely with the group of people . We ordered three things. We ordered a catfish po' boy, beignets, and a bounty biscuit. The beignets were dark brown on the outside and puffy, but doughy and uncooked on the inside. The bounty touts a fried green tomato, pimiento cheese and a sunny side egg on top. The egg was sunny side but rock hard, the pimento cheese was missing and the fried green tomato was about the size of aroma tomato in a lot of dough. The po'boy was missing the sauce which made it very dry, the catfish was undercooked and pink and could not be eaten and the sandwich was missing the pickles. The pickles seem to be a big part of the show on the menu. We talked to the chef about the missing pickles and he seemed to think the rotating pickle was a dill pickle and then walked away without saying anything. But then another person came back was some pickles from a jar saying that they always forget about putting them on the sandwich. We provided some general feedback about the egg, undercooked catfish and undercooked beignets and the person we believe was the owner seem disinterested in hearing us and just wanted to provide our money back. No "sorry", no "hope that you will come back and give us another opportunity"... Not even a comment that they're fairly new and their processes need to improve. I think there needs to be a line person who double checks that everything is on an order before the order is sent out. We also think that for the amount they charge, they should rethink the size of the food they provide. The signature item, biscuits, are more like drop biscuits rather than a breakfast biscuit. The table next to us also left their biscuit on their plates. On the upside, the presentation of food was very pretty. Overall the meal was terribly disappointing. We hope that it gets better or it will be another hard worked effort for a restaurant that won't last very long. We wish them luck."
