First Watch 742 North New Ballas Road, Creve Coeur, MO 63141

"First Watch aka Home of the Raw Potato! After being a regular customer for years I don't think I'll ever eat at any of their locations again. When it first came out, no one compared to their food in my opinion. Food was always great and came out fast. But now the food is mediocre, over priced but still comes out fast as ever. And I think it's because their priority is to get you out and get the next table in as fast as possible. Profit is the priority, not good food and service anymore. Which is very unfortunate. Everyone I know gave up on this place a year or two ago, and it was me that was always beg them to come with me. Until my last 4-5 visits with 3 different locations, and it's always the same. We know refer to this place as the home of the Raw Potato. You can only get them burnt, or raw. I've been on the busiest days so many times, and 10 mins after I order here comes my food (which is usually a great thing) but the million dollar bacon I got was just well done bacon with syrup on it (upcharged for no reason), and the potatoes were so hard on the inside. I have told them multiple times I don't mind waiting longer to have my food cooked how it should be. But they don't care they wanna get you out and get the next table sat. So you can poorly cooked food because of it. It's way too expensive for all that! And I've never, never seen a manager walking around or had a manger ask us how our food is? You can tell the cashier when you leave about how bad your food is, and they'll "say sorry to hear that, that'll be $54.86" lol. This place went down hill fast. Plenty of other options out there if ya don't wanna make breakfast at home. But this place needs to quit ripping people off and hiding from being help accountable for it. Look how pale the potatoes are in my picture, they weren't even cooked hardly. Over $50 for two people and all I enjoyed was my waffle soda and the eggs kind of. Never got to speak to a manager.."

"Restaurant atmosphere was cozy and i enjoyed having my breakfast here. I noticed though just hearing the hum of voices talking, no music? Our food was good, sufficient waiting time. The restrooms were clean and everyone looked efficient. Much as i was happy with the rest of the staff, our server was grumpy and doesn't seem to want to serve us. She seemed ok with her other customers though. I don't know what's the deal with her, was it because we requested to transfer tables? Forgot her name unfortunately."

"We went to this establishment on a Saturday around noon. The food was excellent and tasty and the atmosphere was cozy. If you decide to visit on a weekend please save your place in line by going to their website. It was extremely busy but totally worth it."

"First time visiting this location and I must say Our waitress Diamond was A-MA-ZING!! She was very friendly, sweet, attentive and knowledgeable of the menu. My food was delicious but my Husband didn’t enjoy his, he thought the grits were instant and the turkey sausages tasted like chicken sausage, he wasn’t a fan but the ambience was great."

"Dined in this morning, really good food. Great service! Gravy and biscuits went over good. The Chickichanga is really tasty! Coffee was ok. They had Stevia or sugar with good creamers! Strongly recommend getting there around 8. When we left about 930 there was quite a line waiting."
