- The hype has (finally) died down since they opened. For a little more than $10 you can try both a sweet and savory biscuit. I like the Savory Character and Benton's Bacon, Egg and Cheddar! #nyceats
- I love this place. Classic sausage & gravy is my favorite. Other notables include The Bright Crew (oxtail!!!) and Your Mother's House (maple syrup butter + pumpkin pie spread) with bacon added. Noms
- HeenaJuly 26, 2014If you love biscuits and jam - they have it all! Homemade. Open 24/7. I loved mine with good old plain butter! (P.S. Try their habanero sauce - spicy!)
- Untapped CitiesJanuary 7, 2016Empire Biscuit’s menu boasts a biscuit with roasted duck fat as well as Cape gooseberry and apricot jam, Gorgonzola and nutmeg butter, and candied mango jam. Read more
- Jeremy WilcoxFebruary 2, 2014Best entree sandwich is the country style with the pork sausage gravy. Best dessert sandwich is the 'Ben and Karen' (piced and Candied Pecan Butter with 24-Hour Apple Butter) on all-butter biscuit.
- MarcOctober 31, 2013Tasting Table says: "24-hour E.V. spot... Choose from country-style biscuits made with lard, or an all-butter version, and opt for toppings such as maple butter, pumpkin pie spread or pimento cheese"
- Jessie LiuNovember 10, 2013The Scotch Egg sandwich is amazing. In general, the default biscuit provided is the lard biscuit. If you prefer a more salty/buttery taste, you can request a butter biscuit.
- Serious EatsNovember 25, 201324-hour quick-service spot for biscuits and biscuit sandwiches. Plain biscuits and biscuit sandwiches are great—just keep your order simple.
- Post workout treat: The fried chicken biscuit and the sausage biscuit and gravy. Holy yum! Oh, and eat them quick so they don't get cold/soggy.
- LizaAugust 20, 2014The "Jason and David Biscuit" - Roasted duck fat and thyme butter with apricot and gooseberry jam - super yummy and buttery!
- Alp OzcelikMay 29, 2014BEST BISCUITS! Their bacon, egg and cheese biscuit is AMAZING. I also love their Lemony Susan. Fast service. 24/7!
- Ashley 🌵July 5, 2014Amazing! Must try... Went with 3 of us and everything was good! Worth the trip. (OJ was very delicious too) will be coming again b4 we leave
- Will SchollApril 1, 2015Fried chicken biscuit with ranch is otherworldly delicious. Add house-made pork sausage gravy to get freaky.
- Albert TongDecember 6, 2014#nom biscuit spot. House made pork sausage gravy was my favorite followed by fried chicken and sausage patty w/ egg. #NYC
- Apex TacoMay 31, 2014Delicious and addicting. I've been in the city for ~2 months and have visited almost once each week. Runny egg on the spicy gumbo, mmm...
- AmateurConciergeAugust 19, 2015The 7.8 is a criminally low rating for such a tasty spot. The poblano sandwich my girlfriend bought me kept well over night which was surprising
- First We FeastAugust 3, 2014Empire Biscuit brings something undeniable to the table with its cheekily named biscuit sandwiches like "The Fancy Pants," made with foie-gras butter and preserved lemon-cabbage jam. Read more
- Jonathan (owner, bearded dude) is the nicest dude on the planet. Blue Bottle coffee and great comfort food. 24/7. Do it. I want them to thrive in the EV.
- First We FeastAugust 3, 2014The 24-hour biscuit emporium has hit its stride, providing a beacon of hope for anyone suffering 4am drunchies and craving a warm, flaky biscuit sandwiching a Scotch egg. Read more
- HashtagNYUAugust 29, 2014Founded by an NYU alum, this biscuit joint has everything that a 24-hour restaurant is never traditionally associated with. Believe us, it’s worth the walk. Read more
- Citi BikeMay 3, 2015There's always room for biscuits, especially Empire Biscuits! Park your Citi Bike one block north at E 13 St & Avenue A. Get one of everything.
- Lisa KarmelAugust 30, 2014Love the chicken biscuit! The jalapeño sauce is delish, but the habanero sauce will literally put your mouth on fire. So good!
- Janet Caputo KarpNovember 4, 2015Get a honey butter biscuit late-night & add a plain one (uncut) in your order for the next morning. You'll thank yourself.
- Kat VJanuary 13, 2014Seriously, try the snuggah boo. Goat cheese and fruit, Sooo delicious. Also ask about the sides. The black Eyed Peas are fantastic!
- I have never had a bad item here. The chicken biscuit is amazing. Stop by frequently as the menu changes.
- Country biscuit and sausage gravy is where it's at, but don't be scared to explore the menu. It's all good.
- Raphael LangenscheidtAugust 7, 2015The biscuits are great, but the place lacks vibe. Get the fried chicken and try a sweet biscuit as well.
- Russell HirschornJuly 12, 2014Biscuits are crazy good and the filler puts it over the top. Sausage gravy and pork with sucatash. #fooditude
- Chris PinolaMarch 24, 2014Awesome staff and delicious food! Perhaps a bit overpriced given the size of the sandwiches, but I'd still recommend it.
- April WallogaNovember 10, 2013Decent biscuits, but not near the buttery moist taste I was hoping for. Size is average. One could easily eat two with fixings - bacon, fried chicken, egg, different flavored butters and jams.
- Edward SeborSeptember 20, 2015Before this seasons rush of fried chicken sandwiches this was the ultimate fried chicken fix for late night. Pricier than you think
- Don't be afraid to start with the fundamentals; butter on an all-butter biscuit is a great intro to the menu.
- Ana Marie 💃February 10, 2015Amazing for breakfast and late night. Fried chicken biscuit is my go to.
- Allie S.October 31, 2013Really delicious bacon, egg, and cheese on a biscuit. Only complaint is the bacon could have been crispier.
- David CoronadoSeptember 8, 2014Their Biscuits and Gravy are a classic. Try the Fried Chicken Biscuit Sandwich too.
- TYreeNovember 29, 2013Really enjoyed the food here but IMPORTANT "eat in" the biscuits are hard as rocks and not as flavorful if they get cold. Empire to change to an insulated type of packaging to keep them warm.
- MandyDecember 7, 2013Like actually terrible ?? Take the JMZ one stop into Brooklyn for a fried chicken biscuit at 3 dollars cheaper and a thousand times better at Pies and Thighs
- DoubleDeuceApril 4, 2015The product and price match is thoroughly disappointing but the variety and interesting food ideas makes up for it. Average spot but good to grab a quick bite.
- Sara 🌈⚔🍾April 4, 2015The grits. The fried chicken. Goat cheese biscuits. Drunk food. Love this place.
- If you are kosher inquire about the lamb-ham and lamb-bacon. Also anything without meat.
- Spotted by Locals - city guides by localsAugust 9, 2015Nothing beats the traditional house-made pork sausage gravy sandwich Read more
- ThrillistJune 21, 2014If you're celebrating #BDOYL on the first day of summer, get our custom biscuit!
- Serena WNovember 17, 2013Given its namesake, was really expecting better biscuits. Biscuit was dry and flavorless. Thankfully, the fried chicken was tender and nicely flavored with 5-spice and star anise flavors.
- Friendly customer service. Great biscuits. Go for the chicken biscuit. Obviously.
