    This is a really simple and quick bread to make, although it lacks a little in flavor. Next time, I’ll add more cheese and perhaps some red pepper to kick it up a notch. My kids loved them dipped in honey.

    • 24 years ago

    I make this recipe alot for the kids. They love to snack on them after dinner too. I have added a little onion powder in mine. These are just like the ones you get at a famous restaurant chain.

    • 24 years ago

    Good biscuit recipe. Tastes much like Red Lobster’s “Cheddar Bay biscuits”. Great recipe!

    • 24 years ago

    This receipe has changed my life. My family loves these famous rolls from one of our favorite lobster spots and this is the real thing, this is it. If you can boil water (not that this receipe requires it) you can make this awesome receipe. My 7 yr old daughter helped me and we had fun.

    • 24 years ago

    These are just like the famous restaurants. Really good with chili.

    • 24 years ago

    This is an excellent recipe! It is so quick and easy, and the biscuits really do
    taste like the ones from Red Lobster. This recipe was a big hit at our house.

    • 24 years ago

    thanksgiving-2000 Everyone loved them.

    • 24 years ago

    Quick, easy, & scrumptious litl’ biscuits!

    • 23 years ago

    These Biscuits are wonderful!!!

    • 23 years ago

    These are the best biscuits! They taste like the ones served at Red Lobster!!DELICIOUS

    • 23 years ago

    This recipe was just GREAT! I am a college student just learning to cook and if I can do it, anyone can! YUMMY~Thank you!!!

    • 23 years ago

    This also works great using a bagged mix, such as White Lily Buttermilk Biscuit Mix. Yummy!

    • 23 years ago

    This is so easy!! and my graddaughter just had a ball helping me make them. They taste like the biscuits from Red Lobster

    • 23 years ago

    VERY easy and VERY good. I made a large batch for the lasagna night I had with a few dozen college friends, and we all loved it! They all crowded around the oven whenever it was time to pull another batch out… 🙂

    • 23 years ago

    Easy & delicious.

    • 23 years ago

    I was looking for a recipe that would taste like the bisquits served at Red Lobster Restaurants. This one comes closer to it than any other I’ve tasted and it was alot easier too.

    • 23 years ago

    Easy to prepare. I used low fat cheese and milk. The cheese taste wasn’t very strong, but that could be due to the cheese I used.

    • 23 years ago

    These were very good!!!!!I added more garlic to the mix….they were a big hit!!!

    • 23 years ago

    This is a fantastic recipe! The taste is wonderful, it was incredibly simplistic, it is very quick, and these are all ingredients that I normally keep in my house anyway.

    • 23 years ago

    These are like red lobster biscuits but not as light and fluffy.

    • 22 years ago

    This was a great recipe for when you need “something” in a pinch to go with dinner. It turned out very well, except the time/temp for baking was either too long or too hot. It took only 7-8 min at the temp suggested and if I hadn’t been keeping a close eye, they would have burned. But will definately make again…kids loved it!

    • 22 years ago

    Great recipe – quick, easy, delicious, plus ingredients that I always have! My husband loved them – he especially liked the saltiness. Instead of the garlic salt and parsley I used McCormick California Style Garlic Salt, which has the parsley in it!

    • 22 years ago

    I have made these twice now and I think I’m hooked! My
    husband thinks that they’re better than Red Lobster’s. I can’t
    belive how fast and easy they are to make. They even taste
    good the next day. I use Pioneer baking mix instead of Bisquick.
    Yummy!

    • 22 years ago

    I used low-fat cheese and skim milk..and no one could tell the difference..The first time i made these for my boyfriend…he said he could have ate the entire batch….i also made them for a get-together….i showed up late (i forgot a few ingredients at the market) and when i walked through the door…everyone practically pounced on me to get the bag full of steaming hot biscuts! They are just like the biscuts at a well known seafood restaurant. (hints…go easy on the garlic salt, do not overbake, and VERY IMPORTANT..do not refridgerate baked biscuts..it will make them hard as rocks!)
    Once again…i’ve found a keeper!

    • 22 years ago

    These were SO GOOD! I could barely stop eating them. They are extremely close to Red Lobster’s biscuits. I used soy cheddar cheese because it was all I had so I can imagine they’d taste even better with the real thing! My husband loved’em too.

    • 22 years ago

    Excellent!!! So easy and so good! My family goes crazy for these biscuits. I use 1 tsp of Santa Maria seasoning instead of parsley and salt which adds great flavor.

    • 22 years ago

    Wonderful flavor. They are very addictive…. try to eat just one!

    • 22 years ago

    WOW! These are really great! The only adjustment I will make the next time is to cut down the amount of garlic salt sprinkled on top. They were a little salty. Next time I will use garlic powder instead of all or part of the garlic salt.

    • 22 years ago

    This is another good recipe. I made some without the parsley and didn’t miss it. I would say the parsley is optional. VERY good.

    • 22 years ago

    Wonderfully fluffy. Make sure you don’t overbake.

    • 22 years ago

    These are awesome!!! It was incredibly easy to make! Can’t wait to make them again! Thanks for sharing!

    • 22 years ago

    very good and very easy. awesome taste

    • 21 years ago

    Very tasty. I will definitely make these again, but I will try it with a little less garlic salt on top.

    • 21 years ago

    These biscuits are simply awesome! I made them last night to go WITH a lobster bisque. They were ate BEFORE the bisque was even done cooking!
    Im making my second batch now and Im sure it wont be my last!

    • 21 years ago

    These biscuits were simply awesome. The only thing I would change was to not add the garlic salt on top, just let the butter brown and enjoy as is.

    • 21 years ago

    These were awesome. I followed the recipe exactly and they came out great. Taste just like Red Lobster’s!

    • 21 years ago

    These are the easiest, most delicious biscuits I’ve ever made. They take NO time! My fiance said they taste just like Red Lobster. I forgot the parsley, but didn’t miss it. I didn’t have garlic salt so I just mixed some table salt w/ garlic powder. They will be a staple at our table in the future.

    • 21 years ago

    When I make biscuits at home, I usually go the bisquick route…so I gave this a shot and throughly enjoyed it. I’ve tried other biscuit recipes on this site claiming to taste as good as R.L., and this one is pretty close. One trick I used to make them taste more like the famous seafood restaurants is brushing them with a little seasoned garlic butter after they’ve come out of the oven. This gives them a little extra flavor and keeps the tops moist as well. Good recipe Chaney 🙂

    • 21 years ago

    These are fantastic! I made them for dinner on Christmas Day and my guests were surprised that I made them from scratch–they thought I bought them from the Red Lobster! I did bake them on parchment paper also. These are definitely something I would make again!

    • 21 years ago

    Try using club soda instead of milk or water. Much, much better. Fluffier and not dense.

    • 21 years ago

    awesome, almost like Red Lobsters. I used club soda instead of milk as suggested by previous review, and glad I did. I didn’t have any garlic powder, so i used 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt in mix. i also mixed in parsley rather then just sprinkling it on top. instead of sprinkling top with garlic salt, i made garlic butter and brushed the tops after 8 minutes, then returned to oven for 7 minutes, then lightly brushed them again just before serving. I made them on Sunday, today is tuesday and the leftovers are still moist. I stored them in an air tight container on my counter top. thanks for the recipe!

    • 21 years ago

    These were fantastic! Wouldn’t change a thing!

    • 21 years ago

    I plan to cut back on the salt next time. Other than that, it’s a quick, easy and delicious side! Thanks!

    • 21 years ago

    Excellent recipe. I added a little italian seasoning to the butter I brushed on top … other than that I wouldn’t change a thing. Great Recipe!

    • 20 years ago

    delicious and they do taste just like the ones from Red Lobster!

    • 20 years ago

    I’m not familiar with Red Lobster or their biscuits so I can’t speak to whether these are like theirs, but I *can* say that we loved these! I misread the recipe and accidentally used three tablespoons of butter and mixed the garlic salt and the parsley with it. I brushed it all on together and found that three Tbs of butter was perfect, so I will make the same change next time. These were terrific-the highlight of our brunch!

    • 20 years ago

    I was really looking forward to this recipe, but it was disappointing. They just did not rise well at all, way to dense. It’s possible that the bisquick I used was not as fresh as it needed to be, but the recipe was followed to a T.

    • 20 years ago

    Taste great! Very easy to make. Taste pretty close to Red Lobster.

    • 20 years ago

    I had to make another batch of these because I saw that one was not going to be enough. After tasting them I decided to alter the recipe a little. I used 1/2 cup milk, 1/4 cup butter, extra sharp white cheddar, and 1/4 cup of Parmesan/Romano and we liked it better with more butter and more cheese.

    • 20 years ago

    Yummy! Very soft and tasty. Plan to use leftovers to make sausage biscuits. I did not brush additional butter on top (to cut fat) and they were still great.

    • 20 years ago

    Absolutely delicious. Didn’t change any of the ingredients. The only change I made was to add the parsley and garlic salt to the melted butter and then brushed it all on. Thanks for a great recipe.

    • 20 years ago

    These are awesome and taste just like the ones at a famous seafood restaurant!

    • 20 years ago

    I love these, my family loves these! They are so easy to make and they are even better than the Red Lobster ones or the pre-packaged ones!!

    • 20 years ago

    i love these things! no red lobster around anymore so this is the best way to get my fix!

    • 20 years ago

    LUV IT! I just loved these biscuits. I did mix the parsley in with the batter as a previous review suggested. I make these all the time. And for an added kick, sometimes I add a little crab meat (about 2-3 oz) and WOW. If you do use crab meat you may want to season it a little with some old bay season. I have not try using club soda instead of milk but I usually use more butter that milk.

    • 20 years ago

    these taste EXACTLY like the red lobster recipe! I took some over to my mother-in-law, and she was raving about how good they are. She’s Begging for the recipe! *We used the bisquick cheese-garlic biscuit mix* you’ll love ’em!

    • 20 years ago

    Really easy and Really good

    • 20 years ago

    These were great! I believe the only reason someone would not like these would be due to not enjoying Bisquick style biscuits. They were the perfect consistency, I followed the recipe to the letter. Thank you!

    • 20 years ago

    Uck. These came out dry, even tho I followed the recipe accurately. There has to be better recipes out there for cheesy-garlic biscuits.

    • 20 years ago

    Easy, and more flavorful with the garlic salt than similar recipes I have tasted before.

    • 20 years ago

    Didn’t think much of these. And nothing like I remember red lobster biscuits. A little bitter…

    • 19 years ago

    Very good, Better than that famous restaurant. I tried to halve the recipe and it didn’t work, had to add more milk. Thought i had ruined it but they turned out great!!

    • 19 years ago

    These were sooo close to the Red Lobster biscuits. I loved them!

    • 19 years ago

    This was good…Found a package of cheddar biscuits from bisquick next to the pancake boxes at walmart for .89 that were just as good and quicker.

    • 19 years ago

    very good and VERY easy 🙂 I served mine with soup and salad, and my friends loved them.

    • 19 years ago

    Yummy…!! I remember biscuit from my childhood in the states and can never find any around here. I can’t find shortening either, so I used butter and a bit of oil instead. I also used J.P.’s Big Daddy Bisquit mix to make baking mix (without the milk). I think I have to use shortening for the perfect flakiness, but this was already really really delicious!!

    • 19 years ago

    These were just ok. My husband liked them, but I thought they were too heavy and dense and the flavor was nothing like Red Lobster

    • 19 years ago

    These were good. I was expecting a little bit more flavor…similar to Red Lobster, but these are the closest that I have found to those. I think I will tinker more with seasonings to get more flavor. Thanks for the post.

    • 19 years ago

    I’ve used this recipe quite a few times. Everyone really likes it — easy and tasty!! I heartily recommend it!!

    • 19 years ago

    these were excellent!!! Followed the recipe exact and it was fabulous. we were fighting over the remaining biscuits after dinner.

    • 19 years ago

    they taste like the red lobster biscuits!

    • 19 years ago

    I’m in college so I’m waaay 2 lazy 2 make anything that takes over 20 mins, and 2 poor to make anything with tons of obscure ingredients. This is the 1st thing I’ve made in weeks that isn’t instant, it was perfect thx

    • 19 years ago

    Eh. I don’t know. I used reduced fat bisquik so maybe that was the problem but I was very disappointed. Too blah. Even my father who always takes seconds on any kind of bread or biscuit passed these up.

    • 19 years ago

    I gave this 5 stars all around for being a very respectable, super fast, and easy recipe. It’s a great salty-cheesey biscuit that everyone will enjoy. Aside from dialing back the amount of cheese, I wouldn’t change a thing.

    • 19 years ago

    I love the bread they serve at Red Lobster. This tastes so similar!!

    • 19 years ago

    Absolutely incredible. I’ve only been cooking for two or three years and this is the first time I’ve made biscuits. These were unbelievably good. I served them with fried chicken, baked beans, and cole slaw. I may advise reducing the garlic salt just a bit, but that would just be a tweak, not a wholesale change. These biscuits had just the right combination of crunchy on the outside and soft and warm on the inside. They also look VERY impressive. This is a great recipe.

    • 19 years ago

    Extremely simple and very tasty!!

    • 19 years ago

    These biscuits were excellent! They taste just like Red Lobster’s as everyone has said. Adjust the garlic salt to your taste. Other than that, these are easy, fast and absolutely delicious. We had them with lasagna. Yum!

    • 19 years ago

    Very good! I used this both as biscuits and as a topping to a pot pie I made with left over pot roast (pot roast, gravy, veggies and biscuits baked for 35 min at 350). I did leave out the parsley.

    • 18 years ago

    Very, Very good…I actually mixed the garlic salt into the butter and then brushed the tops with it…it think I may just do as the recipe says and sprinkle it on top as I found it to be too salty but my husband really enjoyed them

    • 18 years ago

    Great Biscuits! Thanks for the recipe!!Ya’ll have got to try these! SO easy and so good!

    • 18 years ago

    WONDERFUL

    • 18 years ago

    These are very good! I served these with clam chowder. Exactly what the pregnant lady was craving! I love the amount of cheese, similar recipes don’t call for enough. Thank you!

    • 18 years ago

    Fantastic! They taste like restaurant quality! Easy and delicious! Thank you!

    • 18 years ago

    I served these with the LINGUINE WITH SCAMPI recipe on this site.Just like eating at Red Lobster 🙂

    • 18 years ago

    I am SO glad I tried this recipe! Here I sit at the kitchen table, cooking for the week. I’m having a cold glass of milk and a delicious buscuit, velvety and buttery. A slight bite from the extra sharp cheddar . Even my picky husband liked it!
    The only thing I did different was half the milk and sub it with buttermilk. I also used Extra Sharp Cracker Barrel Cheese. Thank You so much for submiting this recipe!

    • 18 years ago

    hmmmmmm. Just what I was looking for. I followed the directions exactly and they were great.

    • 18 years ago

    Really good biscuits Chaney. I added onion powder to the mix along with a bit of rosemary. Didn’t quite have enough cheddar, so I added some parm. Used buttermilk in lieu of milk and brushed with butter instead of the margarine. So, so delicious and I thank you for this terrific recipe!

    • 18 years ago

    Very good. Crunchy and dark on the outside and light and fluffy inside. I will definitely be making these again.

    • 18 years ago

    I loved these biscuits. I did make a few changes. I used butter instead and I did not have cheddar cheese so I used Australian Tasty Cheese. I think next time I will go get the cheddar for the stronger flavour.

    • 18 years ago

    These are sooooo darn good,fast and easy. My two small children loved them, my husband and my neighbor did too. I had to e-mail her the recipe, and I also sent it to my mom. Thanks a bunch for sharing such a good recipe.

    • 18 years ago

    These were great! I followed the recipe exactly, and they turned out wonderful. I will definitely be making these again.

    • 18 years ago

    Ive seen mayonaise used in some other biscuit recipes and wanted to try it- so i used a little less milk and put some in. They were really good.

    • 18 years ago

    These were great. Cant belive something so quick and easy could taste so wonderful. Will be making these again and again. Thanks for the great recipe.

    • 18 years ago

    Good Stuff!!

    • 18 years ago

    I have been trying to find a substitute for Red Lobster Cheese Biscuits for years. I found this, used the recipe for Mayonnaise Biscuits on this site instead of biscuit mix, and found heaven. Everyone who tries them loves them, and my husband said they are better than Red Lobster’s! I usually add a bit more cheese than it calls for.

    • 18 years ago

    No need to visit Red Lobster, these are identical. Delicious!!

    • 18 years ago

    Fantastic they are great for breakfast the next day too!

    • 18 years ago

    Very good, easy & just like Red Lobster’s!

    • 18 years ago

    Great recipe! – The only thing I did different was to cut the garlic salt in half. These are a ringer for RL’s biscuits. Goes grest w/ the Shrimp and Mushroom Linguini with Creamy Cheese Herb Sauce on this site!
