Highly impressed by the breakfast here. I had the banana bread French toast and it was amazing. The cappuccino I ordered was perfect as well.

Absolutely loved this place from the moment we walked in.. was a small wait but we left our number and they called us quickly.. arrived and waited two minutes to be sat! Found out it was just one server and the owners working on a very busy day but man did they handle it well! Lovely ladies with wonderful attitude! Literally haven’t had an eggs Benedict this good ever! Wonderful food! Will definitely come back

5 Stars – A Hidden Gem Worth Every Bite! Byrd's Restaurant 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.

By far the absolute best place to eat in Newport News We just stopped in for breakfast / brunch and I must say in Al of Virgini beach / Hampton roads the best breakfast I’ve had in a long time. Great French toast , sort of like how they do it upstate thick bread . Amazing flavor. Only thing I would suggest is for the servers to be a little more attentive . Friendly for sure still 5 stars but it wasn’t a terrible wait time to be seated but I was done eating and everything for maybe 10-15 minutes until I could get my check. Again it’s great service but you can definitely turn some tables quicker will help y’all out. Not a huge place so if you are coming here be mindful of that don’t be a Squater. The entire meal was excellent , I would highly recommend

Expect a wait, they don't take reservations. Food and service is phenomenal. Went for breakfast on a Saturday morning. Had a 30 minute wait, but it was worth it!

Stoped here for breakfast while visiting my family. Great homemade breakfast. Good coffee. Great service. Awesome price for the food. They cooked my eggs perfectly (over medium). Most places either server them undercooked and the white runny or overcooked and the yoke solid, here it was white cooked fully and the yoke was runny (how I wanted it). Will visit !

What a hidden gem in Hidenwood. Our experience was fabulous. From the crab and asparagus omelet to the Ambrosia to the Poutine to the specialty coffees. Best food on the Peninsula.
