First Watch

"Today was my first time at First watch and it was a great experience! The food was delicious and the service was great! I can’t wait to go back. I highly recommend this place to anyone who loves breakfast foods and drinks."

"Excellent service and food. The location is just too small to accommodate the ever present crowd of customers blocking the entrance/ exit and the long, long wait times to get in. Once in, the cluttered layout of dining sitting room is too much to feel comfortable for a good dining experience. I realize they cannot do anything about the small restaurant location. The food and service is excellent though!"

"Came in for some Saturday breakfast. Cute breakfast spot. But the food and drinks did not impress… Party of 2, joined the online wait list. Arrived and they couldn’t find our name. Joined the in person wait list, waited 20/30 minutes longer. After asking about the wait time they found our online wait list and sat us… at the first table as you walk in. -2 degrees outside so everytime the door opened we froze… Moving on to the food… we both ordered million dollar bacon bloody Mary’s. Couldn’t taste any liquor and asked for another shot to add to the bloody Mary’s. Server told us they were already doubles so they couldn’t give us more liquor… if an 8oz double doesn’t taste like liquor it might be a problem… just saying. Also it doesn’t say on the menu they were double which might also be a problem for people not wanting a double… moving on to the bacon. What’s so million dollar about it? It was a regular piece of cold bacon. You know when bacon is cold and you can see the cold fat smeared on it. Is that what million dollar bacon is at this place? Cause it was gross to see, and not really what we had in mind when we ordered them. Now for the food- we both ordered smoked salmon eggs Benedict with potatoes. When they set the plates down my first thought was “ummm did you not look at these on your way out?”, second thought “who do they have cooking in the back that would plate up burnt potatoes?” The potatoes were burnt burnt… like charred black on one side of every piece of potato… the onions cooked with them were burnt so crispy they were inedible …. The smoked salmon Benedict looked good. But upon cutting into it realized it was almost a completely cooked egg… I don’t think I’ve ever had an eggs Benedict with well done eggs… I think that misses the egg Benedict point. Could be wrong but pretty sure poached eggs are supposed to be like that. Took a bite anyway, the food was cold. So on half the plate we have over cooked food and the other half is cold. Waited a while for the server to come back by. Asked if I could get different poached eggs. She asked if I wanted them more runny. Then brought out a cup with two barely poached eggs. Like still kinda slimy egg whites. Poured them on the salmon Benedict, tried to take a bit but after looking at the mess of a meal just opted for the smoked salmon and left the rest. We ordered two of these plates and they both came out the same. She came to collect our dishes and saw we hadn’t really eaten much and compt one of them. Nice gesture but both dishes were a huge disappointment. Left hungry and very disappointed in our experience here. Ran into someone later that day that said they saw us there earlier. I made a comment on how bad the food was there and they agreed saying it was trash and they would never go back there… (same!) Do better FIRST WATCH!! $15 for cold burnt over cooked food and $9 Bloody Mary with cold bacon smeared in cold bacon fat? $25 a person and had to go get food after smh disappointed"

"Service wasn't very good. after we were served, we didn't see our server... the food was good, but I had to pick around the burnt pieces of veggies ate a few, and it was hard to get the ashy taste out of my mouth.. ordered the farmhouse skillet"

"First time trying First Watch. Food was great! Loved the whole experience. I took off one star for the high prices."
