no-wait breakfast at Meriwether's in NW

This place was suggested by a friend as being untouched by the hipsters and if you go early enough you can beat the church goers (to the table).  It's huge and they appear to have a huge staff.  Our meals and beverages came quickly and the service was great.

I had their Huevos Rancheros which have an interesting mole patty, they claim is vegetarian.  They call that part a casserole.  While overall it was very good, the patty was overcooked and dry at the edges.  This is one of their signature dishes and was good except for the edges of the patty.

Huevos

theSmallViking had the florentine benedict.  The egg was perfectly poached and the hollendaise and muffin seemed great.  But it seemed they must have replaced the typical spinach with a heartier green that was almost completely uncooked.  it basically ruined an otherwise good dish.  The potato au gratin that came with her dish was just plainly marvelous, it's too bad her main event was so poorly executed.

I'd probably go again if someone was going, but i'd rather wait for 5 minutes to get breakfast elsewhere.
