Byrd's Restaurant

My husband and I stopped in for breakfast after hearing wonderful things about the food, and it did not disappoint. Everything we ordered was delicious and clearly made with care. The only drawback was the long wait and slower service. It seemed the staff was doing their best but were simply understaffed. Hopefully, they can bring on more staff, because with service to match the quality of the food, this place would be excellent all around.

Cute place. Nice servers. Long wait time (90min). They offered a few cocktails. I ordered shrimp and grits and it was decent. I also ordered scrambled egg and avocado on the side. The avocado was NOT fresh. It almost tasted frozen and was only 90% thawed. Very weird taste. My friends ordered pancakes and one of the hash dishes. No complaints.

Food was excellent. From freshly made coffee to the of hot beverages that was served it was awesome. Food made fresh like the pork sausage and everything. I was satisfied.

While passing through Newport News I stopped in Byrds with my family. We had a little bit of a wait but it was definitely worth it. Everything from the fluffy scrambled eggs to the perfectly cooked bacon was delicious. My daughter enjoyed their pancakes and their French toast was amazing. I loved their cheddar grits. If I'm ever back in the area I would definitely stop in here again.

Yea its gonna be a no for me. Checked in at 1230 and was told it was an hour wait. We really wanted to try this place so figured why not. At 138 I decide to go back inside and was told I was called at 120...I had no missed calls and was literally sitting right out front. But anyway we move on from that and get seated immediately. I put in my son's apple juice and a water and bellini for me... now it's 204... my son is done eating and I have no drink and no food. I'm not about to make him sit here and wait while I eat my food... that's wild so now I'm about to cancle my order and go to chic fil a... at least my son ate... so when I told the waitress I wanted to cancel she said well we always bring the kids food out first. I respect that but he's done eating and I literally haven't even gotten my drink... no apology no nothing...I just want my check so I can go get myself some food... just got the check no discount again no apology. Then I hear the other waitress say his food was brought out with another tables, that shouldn't have happened and my food shouldn't have ever taken this long... it's 215 and I'm out... and starving... mind you I've been waiting to eat since 1230... thanks for the great service... NOT!!!!

Food and atmosphere was amazing!! I highly recommend this shrimp and grits and mimosas flight!!! The service was impeccable!!

This was our first visit to Byrd's. We were greeted and seated almost immediately when we arrived at 7AM. Our server was very nice, pleasant and attentive. Our food came out after about a 15 minute wait. My cheeseburger with bacon and egg was fine. I would recommend more seasoning as the meat tasted very plain and was a bit dry. I realize they have to cater to different tastes but meat seasoning is a must for me. The star of the show was the poutine fries. A small is enough for two people. We would come again for the poutine. The brown gravy was the perfect consistency and it went all the way through the fries. I might try the white gravy on it next time. You could tell the owners cared about good service as they were visible during our time here.

Byrds is my little family absolute favorite breakfast place! My 5 and 1 year old are always treated so sweet by staff and the owner, the food is amazing and they have really good mimosas! Definitely recommend the pomegranate. When my parents visit from Texas this is a must visit place for us my mom and dad said best shrimp and grits and Reuben sub they've had. Their pimento dip is also one we order everytime! Absolutely recommend! Only down side is there is almost always a wait only cause everyone loves them but they move very quickly the restaurant and staff are very time efficient!

Huge menu and a great breakfast. The portions are huge and the price is not. Looking forward to visiting again. Highly recommend

My wife and i were coming to Newport News for a concert. Both of us had researched and came to the conclusion that Byrds sounded the best. We got there early and were like 4th on the list. They absolutely sat a table before us of people i hadn't seen waiting. The woman that greeted us said it wouldn't take long as some tables were leaving. We sat for at least 45 minutes. The place wasn't packed. They had available seating, empty tables with chairs on top still. I assume they were short handed but that did not make the existing staff move any faster. When we finally got seated our waitress got our drinks quickly. She spoke with an accent. She was very friendly and did a good job. She made some recommendations as the menu has a lot of good looking items. The food didn't take super long to come out. Waitresses recommendation was on point. She suggested as my side i get a single cinnamon roll pancake. GREAT CHOICE! The food was fantastic. big portions which didn't do anything for us but everyone else left with leftovers.. All of the food was awesome. That's why they get the three and not lower. It took a while before we got the bill which was also mildly annoying as we had a drive ahead of us. Ambiance was just meh. Finally i would recommend Byrds if you have time to wait. They move on "island time". Food was great!

I have lived in Newport News for almost five years. During that time, I have often driven past Byrd's and always see folks waiting. I figured it must be good or the locals wouldn't wait. I went in by myself one Saturday morning after my plans changed at the last minute and I was in the area. Because I was alone, I was seated immediately and greeted by a server who took my drink order. The place was bustling. It was clean and seemed well-run. The decor is cute even if it's a little dated. The menu was basic but had everything one might want for breakfast or lunch. I opted for bacon, eggs, and french toast. The food arrived quickly and hot. The bacon was crisp the way I like it. The portions were good sized. Everything tasted good and the price wasn't sky high. It's a good basic restaurant. I would eat there again.

Such a cute little spot! I tried this place out since I was visiting a friend in the area. It must've been super popular as the wait time was 30-50 mins (wow) I ordered an iced french toast lagger (they had so many different flavors!) and a hiden combo which came with 2 pancakes, 2 sausage patties, and 2 eggs. The latte was great! I loved the flavor of the espresso but not my fav syrup flavor. The pancakes were super soft and fluffy. The sausage patty had a good flavor but a bit tough to bite. My friend let me try her home fries and they were nicely seasoned. The servers were super nice and made my group and I feel welcomed. Will definitely be back if i'm in the area!

Byrd's is the kind of place that makes you want to come back before you've even left. I ordered the Byrd's Hash with deli corned beef (and yes--real corned beef, not the canned stuff!). The home fries, onions, and bell peppers were perfectly grilled together, topped with two eggs just the way I like them, and served with my choice of bread. You could taste the freshness in every bite--absolutely amazing. My husband got the shrimp and grits, and let me tell you... I almost ditched my own plate to steal his. As someone who's never had shrimp and grits before, Byrd's set the bar way high. Creamy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection--they nailed it. The restaurant doesn't take reservations, just walk-ins, but the wait is 100% worth it. The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming, which just adds to the cozy, down-to-earth vibe. Byrd's is a must-visit--whether you're a local or just passing through, this spot is a winner.

Small but welcoming spot for a delicious breakfast. Wait time can be a bit long due to the popularity of this spot, but the wait is worth it. Service and staff are great here. Food was delicious, pancakes fluffy and my omelette was even more fluffy. My home fries were out of this world. Definitely recommend the home fries. Not open all day, so plan ahead and get there early, you won't regret it.

This is definitely a local favorite. Lines are out the door always. Service is prompt and very friendly. Ambience is warm and friendly. A very cute and cozy spot for brekkie.

I have on occasion eaten at Byrds, and it is so popular that generally the wait is just too long and too crowded. So today we took a chance at about 1230pm and had a wait of about 15 minutes . When we were seated and our orders placed it took quite awhile for the food to come out. This is the only reason for taking one star. It was probably 45 minutes waiting for food. In the mean time attentive waitstaff were keeping our drinks refilled. I ordered poutine, which is fries topped with melted cheese and brown gravy. Dee licious!! I filled up on it and could barely eat my savory shrimp and grits. This was made alot like a tasty gumbo over cheesy grits. The breading on the chicken sandwich we ordered was crispy and tasty. The portions were huge and everything well prepared. The menu is diverse, kind of between diner food and a pancake house. I really wish I could eat here more often, but the wait is just too long. Still the 3 items and iced tea we ordered came to $60 plus gratuity, which seems average for a similar dining experience most places.

I've been to Byrd's a few times, and the food is good--simply good food. The customer service is great. I love the team approach, and everyone is so welcoming and friendly. The atmosphere is cozy. Seating is limited, so there has always been a wait, typically 30-40 minutes, so be prepared to wait. They do have seating inside near the entrance and outside. I believe you can sit in your car while you wait, and they will call you.

Be prepared for a long wait. Maybe it's a good sign because it seems like everyone here in NN come here for breakfast/brunch. Or maybe they just need more help in the kitchen or wait staff. There were at least 3 empty tables. There was even a time when a waitress would come upfront and answer customer questions while the hostess was standing by. Service definitely needs help. Ambiance: typical local diner vibe. Charming decor, a hodge podge of random nature prints and Eat sign. Food: now THIS is the aspect that sets Byrd's Restaurant apart - even with those in VA Beach or Norfolk. Food is solid 5 stars. I ordered The Monitor which is an omelet with real lump crab, diced ham and asparagus. YUMMY! They have specials today one of which was really good that my friend proclaimed: lemon blueberry French toast.

Soooooo Good!! This place is so good that you need to be prepared to wait. It's worth it though. Not pictured was "The Granny" a cold ice coffee with liquor. Everything was excellent, start to finish. From the food to the wait staff.

At last I have been able to visit The Byrd. You know its a popular place when people are waiting at 8AM for a table. Parking in the shopping center is ample but has an angle and vehicles park along the storefronts. The interior is basic but cozy and overall very pleasant. The menu is not deep but the choices for breakfast or lunch are ample. I had the homemade Hash Browns with egg on top and rye toast along with coffee. The plate was full, the food quantity and quality was very good. Service was attentive, and in a few cases other wait staff made sure my coffee cup was not empty. I actually spoke to the manager/owner and considering how busy it was she took time to ask me how everything was. I would be interested in going back. From what I saw they have a loyal following which is earned.

The food and service is on point. This is my favorite restaurant place hands-down on the peninsula. The only downside is the long wait. The staff is friendly and they help out each other. I like the Hydenwood and the French toast ! I have also gotten the eggs Benedict amazing!

Food is always good! Some of the best shrimp and grits in the area! Byrd's hash with real corned beef and eggs, amazing! Jays big biscuit sandwiches are huge and very good! They are always busy and always a wait but definitely worth it!

This place was absolutely amazing the only thing is the wait was over an hour but it's definitely worth it. Wish I took a picture of my food but I had some delicious shrimp and grits and my fiancé had that steak and eggs with a side of French toast. He liked his food as well. I would definitely go back I did manage to get a pic of my caramel macchiato it was delicious

Sophia and I stopped here for breakfast on our day off from work last Friday. We've been here before a few times where the breakfast was very good. It's been a year since our last stop so why not see what they've been up to? We entered after 8am but it was so packed that there was a near 40-minute wait. To be honest, it didn't bother me since we had nothing else planned until later on. They always have a packed house and seating is small. Patience is definitely a virtue. After snagging a table, we were ready to order. I selected the Snyder omelet (bacon, ham, cheese, mushrooms) with a side of sweet potato fries and Sourdough bread. I also had an iced Butterscotch latte for beverages. Everything was delicious. The omelet was full of protein and veggies which is a huge plus for me. The sweet potato fries....a whole lot. And I gotta say the cinnamon-based dipping sauce was a game changer. You definitely don't need a side of ketchup for this one. The Sourdough bread was slightly burnt, but it didn't bother me at all. You can't go wrong with jelly and butter either. A very nice way to start off our day. A full breakfast with staff making sure you're taken care of. Can't ask for anytjing more. Till next time :)

The wait time is absolutely ridiculous waited for 45min for 2 people once we seated there were lot of tables empty. Our server was very sweet. I didn't get her name but she said she was new. For drinks I got the mango mimosa and it was the best mimosa I ever had. Food portions are big I got the steak and eggs that came with a 6oz strip (Med Rare) 2 eggs (over easy) with a side of hand cut french fries and choice of bread (rye) the food was good my husband had the byrds Benedict (turkey spicy pimento cheese and bacon bits with poached eggs with homemade hollandaise sauce. With sweet potatoe fries. The place looks clean but it looks like they are way understaffed.

The food and service is ALWAYS GOOD. Can be a bit of a wait sometimes but it is worth it. If you're not hangry just wait and order something. I have tried all breakfast options and I love the shrimp and grits. Very filling and delicious. The mimosa flight will have you feeling as though you're flying

This breakfast & lunch spot is delicious! Love that you can order lunch or breakfast anytime they are open! First time here and it won't be out last. Everything we had was delicious and we sampled a lot! I highly recommend the club sandwich, the scrambled eggs with pimento cheese added in, the chicken noodle soup, the sweet potato fries, banana bread French toast and cinnamon swirl pancake. Coffee never went low and very friendly service. Did have s little bit of a wait on Friday morning, but understand why with how good the food is! Nice comfortable seating and a cute coffee bar in there as well with lots of fun coffees to order with your food.

Need to update Summer hours on the yelp page so you will not show up thinking the site is open

Terrible older women at front counter. VERY RUDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She needs to find another job where she doesn't have to work with the public. Horrible customer service!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A bit overrated in my opinion. I arrived just after they opened (only 5 tables had patrons). I waited about 20 minutes to order, of course after the waitstaff took the food order everyone plus the 3 other tables who arrived after me. Thus, it was about an hour to get my food and finish eating. I can see why this place is always so busy, it simply takes forever to order, get you food, and leave. The French toast was high quality, and very good. I got a large portion of bacon. Of course the cost reflects it. Overall, it was worth a try - but is it a 45 minute wait if you come during peak hours? No. No. No. I'd rather spend a short amount of time eating decent and inexpensive french toast over the contrary. But meh, to each their own. It is a step above a typical diner.

I would love to give this place a 5 star review. The food was great, the waitress, Alexis was fantastic. Unfortunately the manager/owner whoever she was assaulted my 17 month old, yes 17 MONTH old. I took my toddler to breakfast this morning hoping to have some just us time. I was prepared and brought his felt busy book for him to play with, they had crayons and paper for him to color, these things entertained him for about 20 minutes after we ordered but our food still hadn't arrived and he was getting bored so he picked up the little bundle of (cheap plastic) flowers and was playing with them. I was showing him how to keep them together and making sure didn't destroy them. As our food was being delivered 10 minutes later, this woman comes over to our table and yanks them out of his hand and walked away. I didn't want to make a scene and luckily our food had just arrived so he was distracted by eggs and didn't get upset at this woman taking something from him. I didn't want to make a scene so we just ate our food and when she came over to ask how our food was like nothing happened I asked her to please in the future not take things from people's children and her response was "In the future don't let you child play with my flowers and we'll be fine." I 1000% would have been okay with her saying something like "Hey, can you please not let your kid play with the flowers" I wouldn't even have cared much if she had been rude to *me* about it. I've worked food service and retail for 20 years, I get that kids can be frustrating and parents even more so but you do not EVER put your hands on someone's kid.

The wait for this restaurant is terrible. Honestly the wait alone is a deterrent and they don't offer a call or text option once your table is ready. So you have to wait at the restaurant for 1-2 hours until your table is ready. And don't be in a hurry because even though you're seated you'll still have a bit of a wait with the kitchen. That being said, the food is delicious. I had the chicken and waffles and ate every bite. My sister ate every bite of her biscuits and gravy. My sister had the mango mimosa and said it was quite tasty. I had the pomegranate and it was PERFECT. The second one I had was grapefruit and it was not hitting. It tasted as though they used unsweetened grapefruit juice which just made it not great. The restaurant is quite small and everyone is in there tight. When they're full it can be very close and they one have a single stall restroom.

I recently had the pleasure of being served by Alexis during my visit to Byrd's Restaurant, and I must say her service was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we were seated, Alexis greeted us with a warm smile and a friendly demeanor that instantly made us feel welcome. Her knowledge of the menu was impressive, as she provided insightful recommendations that perfectly suited our tastes. Alexis was attentive without being intrusive, ensuring our drinks were filled and that we had everything we needed throughout our meal. She checked in at just the right times, making sure we were satisfied with our food and addressing any questions we had. What truly stood out was her enthusiasm and genuine care for the dining experience. She took the time to engage with us, sharing stories about the restaurant's specials and even her favorites on the menu. It was clear she takes pride in her work and values her customers. Overall, Alexis made our dining experience memorable, and her exceptional service is a testament to her professionalism and dedication. I would highly recommend seeking her out if you're visiting Byrds Restaurant you won't be disappointed! Thank you, Alexis, for a fantastic afternoon! Unfortunately, she was reprimanded (by the owner right in front of us) for not mentioning a promotion or item to us, in which she did. The unprofessional intrusive behavior of the manager was off putting to say the least. This young lady didn't deserve that and it was the day after Christmas. I hope we can have more kindness and accuracy going forward.

Good morning on my way to Byrd "s restaurant now.food is delicious and hot but you might have a little wait but it's worth it

The pepper got me at first Ordered shrimp and grits, enough for two and it was so delicious. The pepper got me at first but after a sip of water I appreciated all the flavors. French toast are thick! And pancakes and fluffy. Small wait to sit down but all very worth it!

The wait is absolute terrible, they have you wait when there's tables open for seating they move super slow. Togo orders are the same you have to wait just as long as dining in! On top of that the food is not worth the wait! Need more tables in the seating area

Was visiting Newport News,Virginia for Mother's Day weekend and decided to visit Byrd's, this is my second time eating at this restaurant. Location isn't the largest and reservation are not available so wait time can be a little long, there is plenty of parking as the restaurant is located in a shopping center. Hostess is nice and service is always attentive, this visit we ordered Mimosa flights,Cheese burger w/fries and Crab breakfast quesadilla. All food came out fresh, and in a timely manner with great flavor! Restaurant itself is simple and decor, and is very clean from the seating area to the bathrooms. All around the experience was great and if you're looking for a affordable breakfast/brunch in the Newport news area, this is definitely a place to try

Went to Byrd's the other morning for breakfast. There was a bit of a wait, about 20 minutes or so. There is usually a wait of some sort as the restaurant isn't really that large. It is a family style restaurant. The servers are always very nice, especially Kim. I got a caramel macchiato and cinnamon roll pancakes and it was amazing. I don't feel like the pancakes are overly sweet, although they come with icing. My bestfriend got the Chicken Quesadilla, and she said it was a 10/10, along with the potatoes. Byrd's is a favorite of mine and i will be back sooner rather than later!

Arrived at 10:30 and was told an hour wait. At 12:05 we were finally seated and we told the waitress we knew what we wanted to order. She said shed be right back. Left us sitting another 10 mins without drinks or offer to take our order. Obviously they were not interested in our business so we left. Very poor management. This was supposed to be a birthday celebration but was only anxiety situation. First time I've ever walked out of a restaurant without being served.

This is my favorite breakfast restaurant. They have unique dishes I order an omelette with ceab meat and I really enjoyed it. i gave been here on multiple occasions and the food and customer service gas been great. They also have mimosas which is a plus. The only downside is there is usually a wait. However, I don't mind waiting if Im going to enjoy the experience

Set for 35min.wating on our food to come out ,and then found out that the waitress never put it in.Not going back there again.

It's obviously a good choice when the wait is an hour. We got the porch swing and morning y'all alcoholic beverages while we waited and they were great. Not overly sweet. I ordered the eggs Benedict with sweet potato fries. My ONLY complaint would be that the hollandaise sauce was a little vinegary and thin. Maybe the vinegar was from not rinsing the poached egg after cooking it. Other than that the service was great. They really did a nice job taking care of the table. I'd go back.

Came for brunch with a friend on a Friday, This is a small restaurant located within a shopping center. The wait was an hour but we didn't mind waiting until 2 different parties that came in after us were seated before us... we spoke to the hostess and noticed that our name was scratched through on the list with "cancelled" written beside it, even thought we were sitting right beside the hostess counter the whole time. The hostess was very apologetic and seated us next which was about 10 minutes later. Our server was very friendly and took our order right away however the wait for the food was very long as well.. when the food finally came, it was delicious! It tasted fresh and had a home cooked feel. Portions were great and processed were appropriate. Would definitely return, but will make sure to have plenty of time!

My first time going here everything was good. They put some type of beef sauce (gravy) on the shrimp and grits. Didn't expect it but it was cool. They also put a savory sauce on the chicken for the chicken and waffles, don't know why and i haven't tried it yet because of it. Service is ok when you go pick up your order. I will say though my over the phone ambiance was pretty destroyed by the rudeness of whoever answered the phone on 8/17/25 at 11:11 am. She got an attitude because i asked if this fine establishment uses 100% maple syrup or not. Annoyed me tremendously.

For a Thursday morning before a long weekend holiday the restaurant was packed. The wait time was 40mins but they sorted us in 25-30min. The setting was relaxing and fairly quiet for a morning rush crowd. The food was tasty and the service was great. Everyone was very friendly. The food didn't wow me but it was still very good. It's not pictured but I also had French Toast Banana Bread; it was very sweet and moist. Everything was flavorful and filling with their large portion sizes.

Love this place! Great chicken and waffles, friendly service. Adding this to the brunch rotation.

This place is worth the wait! We got there around 10:30 on a Saturday and waited about 40 minutes for a table of four. We knew what to expect because of the reviews and didn't mind waiting to try this place. The space itself is small so I'm impressed with how quickly they were able to move people through. They pretty much have it down to a science. Our server was quick to arrive and take our order. It seemed like no time for our drinks and food to arrive. Everything was absolutely delicious and the portions are huge for what you pay! The value is definitely there.

On a trip to Virginia, we happened upon Byrd's (thanks Yelp). While we waited for our name to be called, we chatted with the couple next to us who turned out to originally be from the same neighborhood in Philadelphia! We ended up ordering a caramel latte, decaf coffee, the chicken and waffle and Byrd's hash (eggs on the side). The latte was very sweet but otherwise good. The decaf was surprisingly delicious. The chicken and waffle was honestly a bit of a disappointment. The chicken was okay but lacked crispness. And the waffle had a strange flavor. I hated the gravy and was glad I got it on the side. The star of the show, and the reason I would return if I was back in the area, was the Byrd's hash. My family is very picky about hashes and as a result we are typically wary of trying hashes at new places. We were willing to take the risk this time #1 due to the cheeky "not out of a can" note on the menu and #2 after looking at pictures here. The hash was so good I was trying to sneak extra bites in! We subbed out the toast for a pancake which was also very good.

A very inviting place. I came in a hour before closing and I was not turned away. I was treated amazingly by all the workers. I was never rushed to finish my food. There was a wait time of approx. 20 mins. However, it was no more than 10-15 mins of wait. There is an option for patio seating which is nice when the weather permits. I ordered the flight mimosa, the monitor crab omelet with a side of french toast. The french toast was really good which was surprising because I don't like French toast. The omelet needed some salt and pepper but that didn't bother me because I have family that doesn't eat with salt due to health. So, i think its nice for them to have an option to eat here with me!

AN AWFUL EXPERIENCE After seeing the good reviews, my daughter, her friend visiting from out of town, the friend's toddler, and I decided to give it a try. This turned out to be a bad mistake. I arrived first and asked for a table for three with a high-chair. When my party arrived I was happy to see that my son-in-law had accompanied them. The restaurant was very busy and there were a few people before me so we settled in for a wait. That is when the issues began. ISSUES: - Similarly sized groups who arrived after us were seated first. Initially, I thought it was because they had reservations and we were walk-ins. However, a review of the website revealed that Byrd's is supposed to be "walk-on only". - The manager refused the seat my son-in-law. As stated, upon entering I asked for three seats and a high chair, which admittedly turned out to be wrong since my son-in-law joined us. The manager (Christina) who seated us was clearly non-plussed and annoyed about his unexpected addition and said adding another chair was not possible. Being that the miscount was my mistake, we said we'd be okay with either letting the baby sit with her mother or waiting for another table. Christina told us neither was AN OPTION. My son-in-law is a gentleman and offered to sit in the car so we could be seated. We were stunned, but acquiesced because we'd been waiting so long that we just wanted to eat (especially for the baby's sake). Ultimately, we ordered a meal for my son-in-law which he ate in his car. What we had hoped would be an opportunity to catchup up with a family friend and her new to us baby over a meal had turned into a disappointing experience. - The manager had trouble processing my payment. Ordinarily I wouldn't mention this because annoying things can happen at any business. However, after such a disheartening experience, this was the cherry on top. GOOD FEATURES: Despite the overall awful experience, I gave the restaurant one star for the following: - A very pleasant waitress who commiserated with our poor treatment, but didn't feel empowered to do anything about it. - Adequate food. No one complained about it. - Decent ambiance. Despite Christina's refusal to add a chair or otherwise accommodate us, I have to admit the restaurant had ample space. This should have been a plus, but ended up being even more galling!

The food is really delicious. However it's always busy. You have to come like right when they open. Saturday and Sunday past 8:30 AM, you're waiting 30+ plus minutes. Besides the wait time, everyone is friendly and helpful. One of the best brunch spots on this side of the water.

Good food but not worth the hype and the long wait. We ordered to go because of the wait time. The steak was thin and chewy and flavorless.

I have enjoyed eating here for years. Byrd's breakfast is incredible. Try the Snyder Omelet or the Chicken and Waffles. I will continue t9 eat there with the great owners and staff.

So my partner and I arrived around 9:45 am on a Friday. We were told our wait was going to be 45 mins and so far we've been here for over an hour. Sitting inside the lobby and observing customers come and go, the front desk greeters are giving differing wait times. One is giving an hour and a half and the other is giving 2 hours. After one hour and thirty minutes we are finally being seated. The place is really nice and cozy though. Clean and well kept. Hope the food is worth the almost two hour wait! The food was delicious and definitely worth the wait. The waitresses were nice and pleasant too! Overall, communication and estimates could be improved!

This is my favorite breakfast place the Byrd's Benedict is amazing Some constructive feedback I can tell owner is stressed many times when I go in which i can understand in leadership role. My heart goes out to any business owner! I would try a different team work approach it may be more effective with positivity vs. the negative abrupt interaction ... if customer notice that isn't good . Everyone has bad days but its always important to have a positive outlook . I notice tables sit a long period many times when we have visited. I don't intend to be negative at all just to provide observation on hopes to improve experience of associates and customers . The food is amazing and team is friendly .

Now be prepared to wait...Byrds does not have a reservation system or open table (please consider its 2023)...BUT BABYYYY once seated the BEST breakfast in the 757! Its small quaint and friendly but well worth the wait! Everything is delicious from the Shrimp and Grits (top tier)...Omelettes...PANCAKE (yes)...and lets not forget the beverages...Mimosa Flight A MUST! Always a 10/10 I just hate waiting 45-1hour with nothing around...

Went to restaurant at 1:20 PM with a closing time of 200 PM and was refused a seat by the hostess and another person that could have been a waitress or manager. There was no waiting list, they do not take reservations, and open tables were available. Very disappointed in the lack of customer service and will not return.
