First off, the place gets very busy. I recommend you join the waitlist ahead of time so that you don’t have to wait a significant amount of time when you get there. Food was amazing. The million dollar bacon was really good as was the banana foster French toast. Highly recommend!

We went for an early brunch, and we were seated pretty quickly. I ordered the biscuit and gravy with my sides cubed potatoes and scrambled eggs while with a morning meditation drink and my friend had a salad with tomato bisque soup. The food came out pretty quickly we only waited about 10 minutes.

First watch is one of my favorite places to get brunch! Me and my fiancé go here almost every time we choose somewhere to eat out at. Because we’ve been so much we’ve had plenty of different experiences and different things on the menu we’ve never had bad service we’ve had servers that were better than others, but one thing that stayed consistent is the food! It’s always good. My favorite two things to order is the coffee and the chicken quinoa bowl

The lunch sandwiches are 5 star, breakfast was 3 stars. Spot is really nice. Location is ok. Service was excellent. There is parking in the morning. We got there at 8am and there was no wait for a party of 8. Was short wait when we left.

Had a wonderful Saturday morning brunch here. The million dollar bacon had my eyes roll back hard! The bananas foster French toast was absolutely incredible. The toast was mad fluffy with those warm banana slices and succulent caramel sauce and crunchy pecans! My mouth had a party! Will definitely come back when I need that naughty breakfast. Good stuff!!. 10/10

The staff and the food was amazing. It was super crowded but I was able to sit at the bar and eat. The bartender was busy but another server saw me waiting and took my order. Food came out shortly after and was top notch. Amazing job

Food and service were well below expectations. Had to flag our server for everything and even remind when items were consistently forgotten. Just stick with mom and pop places and don’t bother with this chain restaurant

The food is amazing, but the service is slow so make sure you have at least 2 hours to spare during the lunch rush. I would recommend one of their specialty drinks. I personally like the Morning Meditation or Kale Tonic to pair with the Chicken Avocado Chop Salad.
