Early Bird Restaurant-Midtown

My husband is gluten-free and I am dairy intolerant. They had gluten-free chicken and waffles. I can't express the joy that he had because to find a restaurant that serves GF food is difficult. He said that is was delicious! I was quite satisfied with my breakfast because they didn't use butter in my meal. We will be returning.

When we arrived, there were two other parties in the whole restaurant.  From that time, we were made to feel like we were an inconvenience.  Staff was not friendly, did not greet us, and just silently led us to the table. When ordering food, I informed the server of nut allergies, to which she mumbled something about gluten. If we didn't have an epi pen with us, we would have left at that point. The space is adorable, and portions are decent for the pretty high breakfast food prices.  As far as the food: my 6 year old ordered the "pick three" breakfast plate; pancake was ok, eggs were decent, HUGE portion of fresh fruit uncharacteristic for kids meals.  I got the biscuits and gravy.  The biscuit was hard almost all the way to the middle, and the gravy was way too salty--very disappointing; my meal was not worth the $16 I paid for it. As we were leaving (at that time, we were the only patrons inside), 3 members of staff stood there--one, I believe is owner or management. Not one of them looked in our direction or acknowledged us. I really wanted to like this place, but due to abysmal customer service, food handling safety concerns, and overall "meh" food, I give it two stars (one for the fruit side and one for portion sizes) and will not be returning.
