I tried the biscuits and gravy. It is now my absolute favorite from anywhere! The service is always wonderful. The food is... amazing and despite how busy they were, it was not a long wait for the food to come out. Read more

Foods average / scenery good/ staff are nice and friendly. The waiting time is absolutely ridiculous. 50 minute wait for a table... 15 minute wait to order. And 45 minutes from the time we put our order in till the time we get food. No food it?s worth a 2hour wait at 11am Read more

There are a lot of reasons to love a restaurant. But one of the most overlooked in today's market is great customer service.... First Watch is not only a stellar place to eat, it is a top notch customer service experience- Every. Single. Time. I loveFirst Watch. The food is blissful, the prices are reasonable, the vibe is fun and not cliquish, and the staff is by far thekindest, most efficient and helpful bunch of people you will encounter bringing your breakfast. I've been to First Watch manytimes. Today's visit was with a large group of us- a Saturday morning hockey club. About 15 of us came to enjoy recharging,eating food, hanging with our buds. The staff was super gracious, setting up a long table where we could all be together andenjoy breakfast. The waitress took our drink orders quickly and we were getting drinks quickly. Love it. I ordered 2 poachedeggs, a BLT sandwich, potatoe pan fries and toast. The eggs were perfect. The toast was warm and tasty. The panfried potatoeswere excellent. The BLT was absolutely stellar. Everything arrived hot and was better than I expected. My son ordered a regularorder of pancakes and a plate of million dollar bacon. I tried both as well. They were exceptional. The "regular " sized orderof pancakes was two monstrous but fluffy pancakes. Love it. The prices were reasonable, and I had leftovers to bring home, such was the size of the portions. But the star of this location is the lovely staff. Our waitress endured our large crowd,flood orders, additional flood of custom requests and did it all with a genuine kindness and efficiency that made our visit agrwat experience. Love this place! I will continue to return! Read more

I haven?t been to a First Watch restaurant since I was a teenager (currently 36) and I got something super basic back then at a... location in downtown Phoenix. Fast forward 20 years and OMG!! ???? We stopped here for brunch after an appointment in the areabefore heading back home (we live in Casa Grande). I?m so glad we did because this restaurant is by far the best overallexperience we?ve had eating out. The interior decor is absolutely stunning!! Phenomenal energy flowing throughout. ???? Staffwas friendly, helpful, engaging, effective, accurate, and overall pleasant! If I had more cash on hand we would have tipped ourserver WAY MORE ????! We gave her every bit of cash I had on me. ???? The food was beautiful, perfectly cooked, tastedabsolutely amazing! At one point I?m pretty sure our table closely resembled the ?When Harry Met Sally? diner scene lol jk???? All jokes aside, definitely the BEST breakfast food I?ve tasted in my entire life! ???? I had the pancakes with eggs,bacon, and breakfast potatoes ???? I can?t remember for the life of me what my husband ordered but he was also blown away by thefood, staff, and environment. ???? I wish I could give them more than 5 ????!!!! Pricing is really good especially for thequality you receive!! I also ordered their lavender drink, I think it was called ???? ?Purple Haze? ???? ???? I have and willcontinue to recommend this restaurant(especially this location) to anyone and everyone who will listen!! ???? OH! One morething!! We always order water with our food at all ?Dine-In? restaurants and usually it tastes like dirt HOWEVER even the waterwas amazing!!! Reminded me of well-water from the Blue Ridge Mountains???? ???? Thank you so much for giving us such an awesomeexperience and great food!! We walked away completely satisfied mind, body, and soul! Definitely looking forward to our nextvisit!???? Read more

Excellent food and atmosphere. The service was top notch as well. Our waiter had been there for 4 days and was better than half... the servers we get. I had the club sandwich with a Cobb salad. The sandwich was light and airy and the salad has just the rightamount of toppings. My wife had the pancake with lemon curd. It was a little too sweet for me but she loved it. The strawberriesdid make it less sweet somehow. I would definitely recommend for a well made quick meal. Read more

I forgot how good breakfast is here. Paige served us and she was super friendly. The entire customer service experience was... friendly. My wife loved her biscuits and turkey gravy and I had the traditional breakfast which as always ask for bacon crispyand it was yummy! Read more

Craving breakfast post workout and my kids highly recommended first watch. Great service and tasty food. Million dollar bacon... was superb. Breakfast tacos were dynamite. Pancakes with lemon curd and strawberries were all the dessert we could fit in. I'mlooking forward to going back. Read more
