We had a great experience eating here. The food was delicious. Lots of healthier options & gluten-free choices, which is so nice. Our waiter, John was so friendly and accommodating. I haven’t had such a great experience at a restaurant in a long time. We will definitely be back!

The million dollar bacon is fantastic. Salty, sweet and some heat😋 Actually, I haven't had anything here that I wouldn't get again. Great food, interesting selections, fast service, friendly servers and the drinks are great too! They have a pomegranate sunrise that is sure to put some pep in your step, delicious! The atmosphere is good and they are always busy. They have wonderful salads and sandwiches too! Roast beef and havarti with the avocado chop salad, most excellent. Breakfast or lunch trust me, you will find something to eat and you will love it. This place really hits the mark.

This is my go to breakfast place. I usually order the elevated egg sandwich. Their house made juices are also a go to for me. There may be a slight wait to get seated but I don’t mind since they always try to do their best.
Update (1 year later): I still enjoy eating here. You cannot go wrong!

We went to First Watch at 1230 on a Saturday. This was our initial dining experience at the restaurant. We were told it would be a 15 to 20 minute wait or it was first come first serve at the communal table. We chose, the three of us, to sit at the communal table. We were instantly greeted by our server and she was a delight. Our food was great we had donuts, biscuits and gravy an omelets and standard bacon and egg breakfast. All three of us enjoyed our meal. We will be back thanks for a great lunch.

Went today for brunch, had about 30 minute wait. For drinks we ordered bloody Marys and sangria - both were good!
Then we ordered the roast beef and havarti sandwich, the Choose 2 (Cobb salad and Monterey club), BLT eggs Benedict, and smoked salmon eggs Benedict. Everything was well prepared, well presented, and very tasty! Prices were good, too.
Before we left, we got the gingerbread doughnuts to take home, and they were also very good.
We appreciated our great server, and he kept us well supplied with bottles of cold water to keep our glasses full! We love that.
Everything was great, so we definitely want to go back soon!

Each and every time we dine here, the service is excellent. The staff is friendly and seems to genuinely care about our meal, the quality of our food, and ensuring we have a great dining experience.
The menu has a good variety of traditional and unique food options. Each dish I've had has been absolutely delicious. I'd encourage you to check them out. They are familiar but different in a good way.
We had a larger party today, and Kierra took great care of us. Melissa was the manager on duty and was there to support and help. We all came away from our meal very impressed with the food and the service!
I look forward to our next meal at First Watch!!

This is my family’s favorite place to go for breakfast or lunch, we typically go 1 or 2 times a month. The food is very good and their seasonal menu is always unique. I always feel like their food is healthy and fresh. I have tried many, many things on their menu and have not been disappointed by anything I’ve tried.
I would recommend their biscuits and turkey sausage gravy, açaí bowls, any of the breakfast sandwiches, and get one of their muffins GRILLED. It is delicious!
Some of their menu items are a take on Mexican breakfast foods and they are so good!
Our 4 year old loves the fresh fruit and chocolate chip pancake that’s the size of the whole 10-12 inch plate!
All the servers we have ever had are always friendly.
If anything does go wrong, they are always apologetic and kind about it.

The breakfast is wonderful. It's not like traditional breakfast which is a nice change.
