    Monterey club with hardly any turkey
    Danielle P.

    Looks like First Watch is also succumbing to rising prices and smaller portions. My sandwich had next to no turkey on it and half the amount of cheese and avocado on it. It was a $15 dollar sandwich. Absolutely not worth it anymore.

    French Toast with Berry Compote and added Bananas and Syrup.

    I ordered French toast with some extras and the million dollar potatoes for carry out. Ordered on their website and picked up in person. Friendly staff and the food was delicious. Everything was perfectly cooked and presented nicely (all the toppings were separated). Prices aren't bad either.

    Never had a bad breakfast here. The quinoa power bowl was very tasty, and I asked for the dressing on the side which reduced the calories even further. I still love their kale tonic. And their cold brew coffee is quite good as well, I drink it black & it's not bitter at all. You can now pay via the QR code on your bill & that was super easy AND it's the pay by phone system that lets you easily split the check amongst the parties so if you have a group of four, you could all pay separately via the app using your separate cards it's quite convenient! First Watch is a definite YES for breakfast from me.

    Some water and coffee to start the day right

    Nice place. If selection, service, and atmosphere are what you're looking for in a breakfast place - this is it. Not your parents Danny's. Love the idea of using Apple Pay at your table. Waitress was kind to offer to take the rest of your coffee with you. Pancakes were a bit dry, but everything else was perfect - chicken sausages, potatoes, and eggs. Highly recommend.

    Bacon and donut apps
    Tina S.

    Delicious Saturday brunch! We did the yelp wait list check-in and only had to wait about 5-10 min when we got there. The special bacon and cinnamon donut apps were fantastic. I got the chorizo hash as and it was veryyyy good. Overall great brunch!!

    Holey donuts
    Gem P.

    Friendly and attentive service this morning for breakfast. We ordered holey donuts, market scramble and breakfast sandwich. All were tasty and well seasoned. I was too hungry to photograph the rest of the food when it arrived lol so you'll have to settle with donuts.

    French toast !

    First Watch was one of those places we tried to get a few times but sorta gave up seeing the lines and walking in once and finding the wait time for breakfast was 45 minutes... but by trying 'off-times' instead of 'popular-times' for breakfast or lunch - we found it worked out in our favor. The food is always fresh tasting and hot and best of all - delicious!! Served quickly too! Seating can be tricky (we were placed at a tiny table right beside the kitchen-not the most comfortable but we were seated within 10 minutes) however, the food is worth it. The reason for 4 stars is the constant confusion by the door... usually there is one person taking names and seating guests but on 2 out of 3 occasions- the same person that was seating folks was ringing people out. People waiting for take-out orders were mulling around; others not knowing where to go or wait. Maybe if the each tables server was taking the bill/money at the table - it would alleviate some of the chaos at the door?!

    Bacado omelet

    I love First Watch but hadn't visited in awhile -- I wanted to try one of their new summer juices and it didn't disappoint. The tropical sunrise has strawberry, mango, pineapple and lime juice and it's my new favorite thing. Always join the line from your phone during the busy weekend rushes. The food is always worth the wait!

    Single chocolate chip pancakes. It nearly filled an entire dinner plate!

    I am mad because they do not serve oatmeal as a side?

    Try their granola side. It's really good and you can get fruit and greek yogurt with it too.

    Out of this world good! You can taste the freshness and home cooked style of these dishes…read more Bloom is beautiful and nestled inside a lovely garden and greenery spot. I can't wait to be back and try more dishes, especially lunch. Also, A+ on customer service. There was a mishap where our drinks were grabbed by someone else. The baristas jumped on it quick and remade all the drinks on the spot.

    My first time coming here was for a yelp event last year that I absolutely loved and I'm sad to say…read moreit didn't quite live up to the hype. By no means was it bad but it was definitely not as good as the event. A ham and apple sandwich was good very light so don't be too hungry if you order it or maybe order a extra side of something I enjoyed the apple I feel like it really added to the sandwich. The scramble was all right, not necessarily my taste, but there was nothing exclusively wrong with it. The bread tasted really fresh though. I ordered a chocolate chip cookie as a sweet treat to go, however, I didn't finish it because it was dry and lack flavor. The reason it's getting four stars instead of three is definitely the ambience being able to enjoy my meal in the greenhouse is definitely the biggest flex they have. It's so beautiful and even though it was a cold day, I was good. I did see that they have blankets in case it's extra cold for your convenience which I appreciated. I would come back for the ambience of the greenhouse and giving the food one more try before I strictly go for greenery.

    This place is one of the cutest bakeries I've ever been in! When you walk in you see a beautiful…read moreseating area, incredible amounts of fresh and local food items and then when you finally make it to the counter you're overwhelmed (in a good way) with the sheer amount of top notch looking breakfast and dessert pastries. I wanted to go on a food journey here and was looking for some guidance, I wanted only their best items and Sarah at the counter was awesome! She helped guide me through their bakery, their main course meals and even find some yummy Italian like pretzels for the hummus I wanted to get and overall was just a very nice lady, I wish more restaurants had people like her working with customers! Finally to the food, I ordered the oat & carrot waffles, a brioche pastry and bought some hummus and Italian pretzels from their mini market! Overall, really good stuff! My only gripe is the waffle isn't crunchy at all and feels really more like a cake. The flavor was on point, especially with the yummy Carmel sauce it came with! The brioche pastry with raspberries was incredible as well! Lastly, the hummus was outstanding!! Get it. It's worth it! Overall this place is a must visit in my mind! If you're in the area, try it!

    Nice spot. Ordered their breakfast sandwich and a few pastries for takeout…read more Breakfast sandwich was massive. Egg, cheese, tomato, arugula, and pesto all served on a homemade english muffin. Option to add bacon or avocado ($4 up charge each) if you choose. This was delicious, but definitely on the pricey side. Pasties were amazing. We tried the pecan cinnamon bun and a cheese/fruit danish. Pecan cinnamon bun was great, but the real star of this entire breakfast was this danish... it was amazing. Filling was half cheese, half strawberry. So good. Overall, nice spot if you're looking for an elevated breakfast or lunch. Will be back soon!
