Blueberry Lemon Cornbread
Tapan B.

We came to first watch to grab some breakfast. We were quickly greeted and seated by the hostess, and quick after the waiter came to our table. She was a great resource for learning recommendations and offering insight as to what we definitely needed to try. The place is your typical chain, breakfast cafe, but the staff is what always makes me go back. The food is very good, the biscuits and gravy are one of my favorites along with the million dollar bacon. I will definitely bring people here when asked for breakfast spots

A delightful Brunch stop here today. Sat at the bar and had great friendly service. I ordered the Red grits with poached eggs, bacon and multigrain toast. The grits were very good and the eggs poached to my liking. My Million dollar Bloody Mary was delicious!

Avocado toast
Jennifer T.

I ordered Avocado toast with over easy eggs. I did not get that. The eggs were hard and the side of $5 potatoes were so salty they went in the trash. This is my second attempt at this location. Disappointed as usual...

I came to first watch for my mom's birthday brunch. I had the steak & chimmichuri breakfast hash which is on their seasonal menu. It was 10/10 I come to this first watch every now and then and I will say the service was not great at all. Our server came to our table maybe twice. I had to get a manager just to get extra sauce.

Highlights for this restaurant are: Easy Parking Great Service Lots of covered outside seating Delicious food. I love the smoked salmon frittata with the side greens and buttery sourdough bread. Flavors are perfect with the drizzle of sour cream acrosscthe top. Serving size is very good. The 3 breakfast tacos are also filled well with fresh ingredients. The side of black beans is a bit much for first thing in the morning but substitutions can be done for other breakfast sides. They have regular iced coffee but will gladly bring a tall glass of ice and a pitcher of hot decalf to pour over the ice. Good coffee! I will definitely return here again.

Hokey Donuts with a side of blueberry sauce and chocolate sauce.
Rick C.

Came here for brunch and everything we had was delicious. The shrimp and grits were rich and full of flavor, and the strawberry tres leches French toast was amazing, soft, sweet, and indulgent without being too heavy. The blueberry lemon cornbread did not look like the one on the picture on display but it had a great texture and a nice balance of flavors. We also got the farmhouse hash, which was hearty and super satisfying. Service was fast and friendly, and the vibe was laid-back and comfortable. This First Watch location is definitely worth checking out if you're in the area.

Ham and gruyere cheese with tomato soup
Margie M.

It was so nice out and the waitress was great. Decided to try the ham and cheese it was really good. Id recommend the 1/2 the whole was just too much.

Cinnamon Toast Crunch Rumchatta coffee
Rachel E.

Had a very nice breakfast this morning with no wait and fast friendly service. My husband and I love the cinnamon toast crunch rumchatta coffee and my daughter loves the purple haze drink. I tried the lavender whip cream French Toast today which was delicious and fluffy and the million dollar potatoes which was also yummy but way too intense for me. Highly recommend!

Power Bowl
Jennifer B.

To go orders here aren't always the best but dining in is never a problem. Servers and staff are extremely nice. I wish I got the name of our server today, she was a young lady who had the section on the outside. She's definitely my favorite server. I always get the power quinoa bowl and white vinaigrette on the side. The restaurant is clean. Will definitely be back.

Banana pancake with eggs, potatoes and bacon
Bijo V.

Food was great!!!! Service very good and loved the bar seating!!!! Will definitely be coming back for more weekend brunches....

Charonton B.

I ordered the Prosciutto Toast, which was decent but had a bit too much sauce for my taste. The ingredients were fresh, and the flavors were there, but I would have preferred a lighter sauce. That said, the portion size was good, and the presentation was appealing.

Excellent service from Sisco Excellent food from the kitchen…read more Excellent drinks from the bar. What more to say? The greeting from our server set the tone and standard for the evening. The lobster appetizer was phenomenal. The chicken oysters, I personally don't see the hype there but the potato served with them is both the crispiest and the softest potato I've ever eaten. The short rib entree with mole sauce was as tender and flavorful as can be. The local jerk swordfish was cooked perfectly and everything on that plate together created wonderful bites. Cornbread dessert was my choice, I love cornbread and that hit the mark with the blueberry compote and ice cream. One nitpick, and this is absolutely a nitpick. The string lights that hang down the wall to the tables are filthy. So dirty they looked like twine rope. Now that didn't change my experience or make me question the cleanliness of the kitchen at all. That food was perfect. And I wouldn't lower my rating .1 because of it I would go back to driftwood more frequently if my schedule fit their hours better, this place is top notch. Make your reso and enjoy We had 4 cocktails, 2 apps, 2 entrees, 1 dessert. Shared everything. Bill with gratuity was about $270. It was worth every penny.

A restaurant that strives to serve local sourced, fresh, innovative foods and succeeds is a gem…read more The Driftwood's sweet and sour cauliflower and the empanadas were top notch.

Subject: Feedback regarding our Sunday brunch experience on 10/04…read more Dear Management Team, I am writing to share some feedback regarding my recent Sunday brunch experience at your restaurant on October 4th at 11:30 am. This was my third time visiting, and I brought two of my girlfriends along for a brunch because I have previously enjoyed your establishment so much. While the food, drinks, and our server were outstanding, the interaction we had with your hostess left us feeling quite unwelcome. Due to some confusion regarding the parking situation, our party of three arrived a few minutes after our 11:30 am reservation time. Upon our arrival, the hostess openly reprimanded me about our lateness in front of my guests. While I understand the importance of reservation timing, the restaurant was largely empty at the time, making the confrontational approach feel unnecessary and embarrassing.线Shortly after being seated, one of my friends asked if we could switch to a different table. When we moved, the hostess called me out a second time. I completely respect that restaurants have rules and operational procedures to follow. However, given that the dining room was not busy, I expected a bit more flexibility and hospitality. It was uncomfortable to be called out repeatedly in front of my friends, and I chose not to say anything at the moment to avoid causing a scene. On a much brighter note, I want to give a major shout-out to our waitress, Sarah. She was absolutely wonderful, attentive, and provided excellent service throughout our meal. The food and drinks were just as delicious as I remembered. I am sharing this because I truly value your business and want to continue supporting it. I hope you can use this feedback to instruct your hosting staff on how to handle similar situations with a bit more kindness and flexibility in the future. Thank you for your time and for listening to my experience. Best regards, Fernanda Makis

The restaurant had a steady crowd, but we never felt ignored or rushed through the meal. The tacos had a nice balance of sweet and savory flavors, and the meat was tender without being overly sauced. The baked brie came out hot and worked well as something to split at the table while waiting for drinks. Our server stayed attentive the whole evening and checked in naturally instead of interrupting conversations every few minutes. The atmosphere felt relaxed and easygoing, which made it a good spot to sit and catch up for a while.

The venue has easy parking opposite their entrance in a free covered garage. We walked into a dimly lit venue decorated for the Halloween season and we were seated at a long table for 8. We were handed happy hour menus and a prefix menu including drinks, along with appetizers, entrées, and a dessert all for $55.on the opposite side. When we started to order, we were told that the pre fix dinner was not available. Only a few items were on the happy hour menu. Not right! Paul ordered an Old Fashioned with Woodford Bourbon during happy hour. Our waitress said that the Woodford would cost a couple of dollars more and he agreed. Do you believe at the end when we got our check the old-fashioned was $21 during happy hour?Of course I was very upset and complained, and she came back with a discounted price of $15. I ordered the happy hour lamb burgers which were too very small burgers with big buns and very tiny pieces of meat in there. I also ordered a side of Brussels sprouts which had pecans and bacon mixed in. That was $18. My group felt everything was overpriced and the communication was not transparent. My husband went into the bathroom and there were no towels or air dryers . The crowd was very young and maybe they appreciate this kind of pub more than us senior citizens.
