    Power Breakfast Bowl
    Winnie L.

    Pro-tip: If you subscribe to their newsletter, sometimes you can get five dollars off coupon in your email. Highlights: I came for Monday brunch with my husband, and we got seated immediately. I thought that Customer service was very attentive, quick, and polite. I like that they have a wide variety of brunch items varying from healthy to decadent, savory to sweet, and they list the calories. The power bowl and the Floridian French toast were great! It's priced decently for a sitdown breakfast. Lowlights: Not a huge deal, but I thought the power bowl was a bit small in comparison to the French toast.

    Bacado with Fresh, Seasonal Fruit - a great classic breakfast if you like bacon and avocado

    This is easily one of my favorite First Watch locations primarily because of he servers. I have a couple favorites here that are just consistently top notch. Friendly, fast, and just always a pleasure to have around. With that being said, I love when seasonal items come around like the Tangerine dream - refreshing and healthy. And the entrees are usually pretty good as well. It's like a fun birthday gift in a form of a menu, bi then you have to order and pay for it. First Watch does provide you with a free entree with a purchase of another for your birthday! I just love a lot of these various dishes because it tastes fresh and it's consistently delicious. Some of the ones I tend to repeat are: The Traditional, Elevated Egg Sandwich, Farm-stand breakfast tacos, Lemon Ricotta pancakes, and Pesto Chicken Quinoa Bowl. It goes on. I never get tired of eating here. Prices are fair and portion is usually great! So I'll see you back again soon for breakfast, brunch, or lunch.

    BEC (special) and Barbacoa Chilaquiles Breakfast Bowl
    Jenna H.

    Both things were so yummy (BEC breakfast sandwich & chilaquiles) and the drinks/juices were fresh! Staff was really friendly & didn't rush us at all. Definitely will be going back!

    French Toast
    Richard P.

    Came here for a quick breakfast and was pleasantly surprised by how tasty the power bowl was. It had some of the best quinoa and breakfast sausage with sautéed mushrooms. I've had from a breakfast spot, and the two eggs on top were perfectly over medium. The French toast was good as well and the best part was that they gave warm syrup for us to drizzle over the French toast! The service was very attentive and the employees working there were very friendly. Would definitely visit again.

    I usually order the pesto quinoa bowl once a month & I think the ratio of quinoa to chicken has been getting way worse. I forgot to take a picture before I ate all the chicken but I swear it's like 85% quinoa. The millionaire bacon is still very good.

    Had breakfast at First Watch and left disappointed. The food was good, but the service was terrible. Our server barely checked on us, and I had to get up and pour my own coffee from the front while the rest of my table was served. Good food can't make up for bad service -- won't be rushing back.

    Chile chorizo omelette
    Kim S.

    This place is very cute inside! Our service was outstanding! Our server was extremely thoughtful quick and kind. She brought togo coffee cups and extra cholula. I got the seasonal prosciutto toast and it was great! Nice sturdy but not hard bread for the toast was able to hold the massive mound of egg prosciutto and fresh parm! Hubby got the chorizo omelet and really liked it. Everyone commented how good the side of fruit was! Not a melon in sight pineapple, grapes, strawberries, blueberries, and green grapes! We would definitely go back!

    It's a blueberry

    Spectacular it's exquisite every fine attribute of the food and place has pleased me the food also makes me feel warm not like other food but it is simply pleasing

    Just had breakfast at my favorite restaurant. I had the salmon Benedict. It was so good and the service was excellent. I would recommend to anyone to eat breakfast or lunch here.

    Monterey Club
    Katie L.

    Loved it! Loved it! Loved it! I've been to a couple other first watch locations it was my first time at this one and it's by far my favorite so far. The restaurant layout is very open and not crowded at all even though the tables were filled. Our server was great, she was very sweet and attentive. My boyfriend and I got the same thing to eat and we will definitely be back the tomato basil soup was super flavorful and delicious to dip our sandwiches into! Thank you for a great lunch!

    Does First watch in Chandler take reservations?

    No, I don't believe they do and I don't think you actually need them if you don't go during the major rush hours.

    Does First Watch near Sun Lakes have outside seating area? We just want coffee and a place for a short chat spot. Thanks for a reply..

    Yes

No seats were available inside (good sign) so we went outside in the shaded patio with misters and found an open table. Our server, Oliver, was awesome! Very friendly and attentive and helpful with items on the menu. For drinks we ordered an old fashioned and a pint of church music. Both good choices. Since it's a burger joint, Hubs ordered the Balboa and I ordered the Yeti. Wow! My burger was to die for. The rosemary goat cheese with bacon jam was the perfect combo of tangy and sweet! Hubs was eating his burger without any complaints which is what you want. Both of us went with the hand cut fries. Crispy and very good! We can't wait to return. This place is legit!

We asked if they could turn on the sound for the World Cup and they were more than willing to accommodate. I thought the Balboa burger was very good and I would have enjoyed the gas lamp burger better if the red pepper didn't keep slipping out. They don't charge you if you change fries for tots or even your burger patty for a chicken or turkey patty, which is really nice. Lowlights: I'm a big french fry eater and I didn't really like the fries here I found them too soft. The majority of their tables inside are barstools, which is a bit uncomfortable for me personally.

I would like to try some again if they weren't as hot. My husband, was probably Happy because he ended up eating the rest of them himself. Lol. We all loved the nachos.

I could tell you they tasted delicious though. Sadly, nowhere near our house or else we would go again and often. I only remembered to take one picture after I drained it in A1, which is my preference. But there's a picture. The staff were Uber friendly. Overall, we would definitely return. I only had one complaint. Do not get ice water. It was the most disgusting water I've ever tasted. I ended up asking for a bottle of water because I couldn't even sip the water after I even drowned it in lemon. They need to do something about that. It's gross.

Our favorite dishes include the Benny and the Jets, the Bourdain (with a runny egg, just as he would have wanted it), the Avocado Toast, the Slow Ride, and the breakfast burrito. Their smashed potatoes is a religious moment, and their pickled onions will inspire you to make you own. The Morning Board, one of their more unique offerings, is great to share if you have a larger group. And the service? We had played Scrabble one morning, and then went on vacation, missing a couple Saturdays. The next Saturday morning we walked in the doors, one of the lovely servers ran up to us with a Scrabble letter we had unknowingly dropped three weeks prior. She helped save the integrity of our Scrabble game and we are eternally grateful. Everyone who works there is wonderful and so friendly. We've had lovely conversations with many of the servers, as well as one charming member of the kitchen staff who was particular proud of that morning's hollandaise (as he should be). The atmosphere is homey and comfortable. The place radiates "local gem", from the small vendors you can buy from (they have shelves with lots of fun items for purchase) to the tiny library you can borrow or add to (we've done both) to the thoughtful music artist montage on the wall (can you name all the artists? It's harder than you think!). The music is a perfect vibe - loud enough to enjoy and groove to, but not too loud you can't hear the people you're with. So put on your favorite concert tee and check it out!

Well...apparently, someone decided to fix what wasn't broken. As soon as we sat down, we noticed the menu looked different. Our waitress explained that it's a "test menu" that's been around for a couple of weeks. Uh-oh. We ordered our usual: bruschetta, Margherita pizza, and Bolognese pappardelle. The bruschetta was good, but now you get 3 instead of 4--and somehow pay more. Math was not on our side tonight. Then came the "Margherita pizza." I'm sorry, but this is where things went sideways. It's now basically a thick piece of flatbread with pizza toppings on it. That is not pizza. I wanted pizza, not a piece of bread going through an identity crisis. Thankfully, the Bolognese pappardelle was still really good. Thank goodness they left the pasta alone! Overall, we were pretty disappointed. With so many great Italian restaurants to choose from, I'm not sure why the menu needed such a drastic makeover. Sometimes, when something is already good, you just...leave it alone. We've always enjoyed The Sicilian Butcher, but if this new menu becomes permanent, we may have to find a new Italian dinner spot. Hopefully, this really is just a "test" and the old favorites make a comeback!
