It has been a hit or miss for me at this location. When it first opened, the service was terrible and the food was served cold. I think they were still working out the kinks. My second visit was much better. The avocado toast is a probably my favorite menu item, as well as the Morning Meditation Fresh Juice.This most recent visit was good. The service has improved immensely. Our server was awesome. The coffee was great. We decided on getting the Tri-Fecta with a multigrain blueberry pancake. We added a side of Bob's Red Mill Buttered Grits. Everything was good with the exception of the grits. They were the worst grits I've ever had. The grits were oily and soaking in butter. What was weird i...

Gave us a 20-30 min wait time around 49 minutes we checked and we’re then told there will be 20-30 minutes more wait time. After being stuck outside in the heat for that long with elderly with us we asked again and they had said realistically it’ll be 40-hour longer wait after already waiting 50 minutes outside. Meanwhile they sat multiple people in front of us placing two people to bigger tables and honestly prioritizing money from quick small parties rather than a family of 6 who have been patiently waiting in the heat.
The blueberry cornbread with lemon butter was the highlight of my dining experience! It was so good and blueberries gave it a really great, fresh taste!My pomegranate sunrise cocktail was also delish, and its potency was satisfying!I didn't quite enjoy my entree, however. I ordered the Parma Hash, and honestly... It was burnt! I picked through what I could eat and ended up leaving more on the plate than I was able to consume.The menu isn't all that great to me. I wouldn't jump at the idea to return.
This is by far the best First Watch location I've ever been to. The servers are some of the best in the area, but the real highlight is the outstanding manager. David's customer service skills are exceptional, and it's evident that his team holds him in high regard and works well under his leadership. He's the main reason I will exclusively visit this location. You're fortunate to have such a valuable manager! Well done! Book a table now
I'm not entirely convinced that the average diner would find much interest in the menu at First Watch, as there are only a handful of items I would consider ordering. The Eggs Benedict were decent, but they didn't come with Canadian bacon.
Steer clear of the Tri-fecta! It’s priced the same as the Traditional dish but offers a significantly smaller portion. The waitress didn’t clarify this, and the management appeared indifferent. I won’t be coming back here.
Sarah was a horrible waitress. She was rude to me and other customers at tables. She would make sly remarks about other waitresses without their knowledge. Horrible service, I do hope she gets reprimanded for her actions.
We went here for the first time today and walked away very impressed. The food was excellent, drinks were good (mimosa, and **** Mary), and the service was exceptional.Highly recommended by me! Book a table now
Everything was great! Didn’t catch the servers name but she seemed very well knowledgeable. She had long, dark hair, glasses, and was the best server we’ve ever had at this establishment.
