Flying Biscuit Cafe - Charlotte

The restaurant is located in a good spot, but unfortunately the food was not good at all. The tofu scramble tasted overwhelmingly of soy sauce. Thankfully, the waitress noticed that I didn't eat it and removed it from the bill. That's why I'm giving it 2 stars.

My wife and I had the Vegan Tofu Scramble at Flying Biscuit and we were pleasantly surprised. We have tried tofu scrambles at various restaurants and made them ourselves, but could never find one we enjoyed. Despite our initial skepticism, we were always pleased with everything we had tried at Flying Biscuit before going vegan. The dish had a distinct tamari flavor, but we really liked it. The waitress was very helpful and informed us that the biscuits included in the breakfast were not vegan. We appreciated her thoughtfulness. Although we wish there were more vegan options on the menu, we were grateful to have at least one choice available, which is more than many other breakfast restaurants offer. It wouldn't be fair to rate Flying Biscuit poorly when they are making an effort to provide a viable vegan option, something many of their competitors do not offer.

The server was friendly and well-informed. The restaurant offers two vegan dishes, one of which is the tofu eggs. Unfortunately, I found the dish to be lacking in flavor, as it was essentially just tofu marinated in tamari sauce with a few vegetables mixed in.

The waitress was very nice and knowledgeable. There are two vegan options. I had the Tofu eggs. They weren't good at all. It was only tofu soaked in Tamari with some vegetables.

The one item labeled vegan on the menu is the BBQ burrito with collards, tofu and mushrooms in a tortilla. the Angel/Devil burgers ARE housemade and can be vegan if you leave off the cheese. Scrambled tofu is an option but you must ask that it NOT be cooked in butter.(last 2 times I 've ordered it this way, it still came out cooked in butter...)Hummus is vegan; so are the Love Cakes naked. Many think the moon dusted potatoes are vegan but I 've been told in ATL and CLT by managers that they ARE cooked in butter. Servers are not real clear what 's vegan or not in the Charlotte locations- it took 3 servers and a line cook to figure out the love cakes don 't use egg as a binder when I inquired on my last visit (I still emailed the corp. office to confirm this)
