I had come here for a Yelp event a while ago and was excited to try it again because I remembered the food being absolutely delicious. Unfortunately, I forgot how brunch works in Dallas so we ended up waiting almost an hour for seats. On our way there, we discovered that you could get in line through the Yelp app and was sad we didn't figure that out sooner! Definitely will keep that in mind for the next time. The food did not disappoint. The portion sizes were great, and the flavors were all spot-on. I forgot the exact dishes we ordered, I tried and enjoyed everything! read more

I really liked First Watch. Love that they offer breakfast options at lunchtime. I had the Trifecta. Eggs were done perfectly, bacon was crisp as I requested and the waffle was great. Everyone in my group was equally pleased with their respective orders. I will definitely come back to First Watch. read more

I love first watch. I have always ordered the same thing. French toast and one of their skillets. Recently, I have been getting inconsistent meals. I bought it on Monday and they forgot many of the small condiments that are essential to eat the food along with any silverware. Today, Wednesday, I ordered it again and I received half the syrup I always receive, no toast (the one that come with the skillet), no jelly and a very disproportionate amount of fruit. I'm very disappointed with the inconsistency. They don't see me being inconsistent with the payment of the food so why are they being inconsistent on their end. read more

Our first visit to First Watch was great! We had the AM superfoods bowl, which consisted of coconut milk, chia seed pudding with fresh fruit and house made granola. We also enjoyed the cinnamon chip pancake breakfast and the Chickichanga. The Chickichanga was prepared with whipped eggs, white meat chicken, chorizo sausage, green chilies, cheddar and Monterey Jack, onions and avocado wrapped in a tortilla. Topped with sour cream and Vera Cruz sauce. Sunday brunch fills up quick, go early. All in all we really enjoyed our visit Go get Full read more

Great food good environment. pancakes are delicious. juices are great. The million dollar bacon is too much sweetness

Loved this place! The portions are good, not too big Tried a pancake, plain, just butter & syrup, and gotta say, it was delicious. Their kale juice and coffee were really good too. Great service. Definitely coming back read more

Went there for the first time today. Met a couple of friends at 8:30am - no crowds or waiting. The place has a clean upscale farmhouse kind of interior. Tables are well spaced so it works well for meetings or just catching up with friends - not too noisy. The food is a clue of notches up from a typical breakfast joint. Prices reflect this. Menu includes most things you'd expect at an a.m. restaurant, but with elevated twists. My traditional eggs Benedict came with a little green salad, which was nice. Coffee was strong and hot and the waitress left the pot at the table. That's a plus. The meals were beautifully played and everyone enjoyed what they ordered. First Watch, I'll be back! read more

This was my family & I's first time & we will definitely be returning! We had a party of 8 & were seated pretty quickly.

Thanks for an enjoyable experience! read more

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. First, being able to put yourself on the wait-list through yelp is a GAME CHANGER. That way you know the wait time and around when you should leave. When you get there you can enjoy complimentary coffee and check in. We only waited about ten minutes. For starters, we got the million-dollar bacon. I can not even describe how good this plate was. The three off us even fought to share the last piece. The atmosphere is clean and farmhouse designed. Great for a quick meal or even to catch up with friends. I got the farmhouse skillet and enjoyed every last bite. This is my second time being at First Watch and I am going to take all of my guests there. For my gluten free folks, the protein bowls are gluten free and they also have gluten free bread!!! read more

I had an experience that I wanted to provide feedback on. Michelle the Manager went above and beyond by ensuring my meal was correct and all dietary requests were performed. She was professional and courteous to the entire party that I came with. Thank you for hiring individuals like Michelle.

Always a great meal! Be sure to check in - in advance of your arrival using their app. It will save your wait time. We had the avocado toast, lemon ricotta pancakes, and the million dollar bacon. Delish!! Service is consistent, friendly, fast. The place is a bit pricey for eggs....we never get outta here under $40 for breakfast for 2. read more

First Watch - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Dallas, Texas

I just moved here from Round Rock/Austin and absolutely love first watch so decided to give this one a try. I ordered 3 Farmhouse hash and the potatoes were like bricks on everyone. Taste, taste, taste people. There's no way the cook tasted these and then packed them to go. And if he did, you guys have an issue over there. The potatoes were severely undercooked, not a little bit but a lot. Spending $36 on these 3 meals alone and not being able to enjoy it, is ridiculous. I'm tempted to take back up there so they can see just how hard these potatoes are.. I guess this is no longer my go to spot in my new home. I'll have to find another healthy alternative. read more

My husband and I decided to grab brunch at FW thanks to a BOGO birthday coupon I had received. We drove by and saw there was a line, so I reserved our spot via the link in Google Maps and ran a quick errand (est. 10-15 min wait). When we returned 5-8 min later, we checked in with the hostess and waited outside. Another 15 min pass by and I realize we've been waiting for a good while, all while watching others waiting be seated. I'm not sure if they also reserved online or what, but I was surprised to see I received a text message 10 min earlier saying our table was ready. The hostess had said she would come get us, but clearly not. I walked in and she saw us and her eyes got big. Thankfully she immediately seated us, although it was an awkward small table smack dab in the center of the dining room (thanks, COVID). I felt like everyone was watching us eat lol. Aside from the mishap on the waiting list, the food was all right. It took a while for our food to come out, which I think may be attributed to our waitress taking a quick break since I noticed other waiters were bringing out everybody's food. Other tables that were seated after we received our drinks were getting their food at the same time as us. My husband was a little disappointed at his lack luster french toast, which looked boring on the plate by themselves. He claimed the flavor just wasn't there. My breakfast sandwich's egg was a bit under (I had asked for over medium) cooked, but the million dollar bacon and my side of potatoes were solid. The morning meditation drink was refreshing and didn't have too much ginger, which I was afraid of. I wouldn't rush to come here for brunch. We had a better experience at the Medallion location overall. read more

Always happy when we come across a First Watch in our travels. This location was excellent as usual.

First time here and the environment is cool. The floor are filthy. The lack of customer service from the waiter was a joke. I ordered their kale tonic, it was brought out, and I asked for a to-go cup and an entire 20 minutes later, the waitress comes out, puts the plastic cup on the table, grabs my drink and pours my drink into the plastic cup after it is now WATERED down. I ordered the lemon cured pancakes, they fell apart with every fork grab, smh, no moisture just dry as can be. Smh. read more

The staff was so attentive and excited to share everything with us. The lemon pancakes were the best I have ever had! We started out with million dollar bacon, that had a drizzle of maple on it. Delicious! It comes with four slices of crispy bacon per order. Next we had the avocado toast. It was LOADED with avocado, then also had sunny side eggs on the side to add! After this first course they brought out a hibiscus limeade which was not something I'd normally drink, so I can't say much about it since I generally don't drink stuff like this so it wasn't for me. Then we had the elote corn hash which was delicious but I would have loved to see more corn in the dish. Third was the ham and gruyere melt sandwich. This was amazing! Very buttery and flavorful, something I'd order the next time for sure. Finally on to the lemon ricotta pancakes. THIS is the main selling point of this event for me. They are AMAZING. Covered in fruit, and then warm maple syrup on the side. These are the pancakes that I will want and think of for all eternity when I'm craving pancakes. SO GOOD. read more

I think a 3 is actually a generous rating. My first time. We tried the Preston location on Feb 8 about 11:30. Service was friendly but very slow. I had to ask our waitress 3 times for a glass of water (why wasn't it important to her and wasn't received until halfway through my omelet). We had Bloody Mary's to begin and both of us felt there wasn't any vodka. We even asked but we're assured vodka was in the Bloody Mary mix (guess you can't get a virgin one) we were given to pour into a glass of ice. Works omelet was average and not much flavor in the meats. Could have done without the sour cream topping. Accompanying Toast was excellent. Price was all pretty high for breakfast. Return is doubtful. read more

First off I'm gonna say the food is amazing the chicken Changa is a must try and the BLT Benedicts are to die for! We were seated in less than 30 minutes on a busy Sunday morning, service was great our server Alex was great as well! Darrell was very energetic and was doing a great job cleaning up all the tables it was very refreshing to watch him. Also both of the managers were there and they were both great ! I've been to other facilities and for sure this one's been my favorite they are super organized and clean. Thank y'all for the great brunch and friendly service! read more

This ain't no IHOP!! Fantastic service and extremely satisfying breakfast that feels home cooked yet elevated. I was here for a private event and was pleasantly surprised. First Watch is a chain restaurant, but the vibe is so welcoming and down to earth. The servers were incredibly attentive and the food is scrumptious. My favorite entree was definitely the lemon ricotta pancakes and next time I'd love to try the salmon eggs Benedict or the rainbow toast. read more

This place is awesome! We tried this restaurant out for Sunday brunch and were very pleased. The decoration inside had a rustic vibe. We enjoyed reading the chalkboard writing around the restaurant. There's coffee (delicious by the way) and cucumber infused water in the "waiting" area. Our server Damian was great! They source their products from local farmers which we love! We got the Rainbow toast to share. We also got the seasonal Elote Mexican Street Corn Hash which was so good! I wish there was more corn and that the potatoes were a little crispier but overall it was great. We also got the Elevated Egg Sandwich with a side of potatoes and it was very filling. We will definitely be back! read more

Incredibly fast and very fresh food. Server was friendly, good coffee. Kid friendly, were I local, I would come here often. Lots of great meatless options. Food is very fresh, lots of veggie and fruit options. My only complaint is that it was a little loud and maybe this is a catch with how fast they are moving through tables but it felt almost rushed. We will be back though! read more

We came at 9:30 on a Sunday and had about a 30 minute wait for a group of four. They have some seating inside and tables outside to wait and you can request a menu as well. If you provide a phone number, they'll send you a link that lets you check your place in line! We arrived at our table famished and ready to eat. Our server Damien took awhile to initially come to our table, but was more than attentive once we had ordered our drinks. I ordered the Elotes Bowl which was so good! The roasted potatoes and corn were perfect and Cholula hot sauce instead of cheese was a perfect addition. I couldn't get the chipotle crema because it was dairy-based and they didn't have something else that would pair as well. My boyfriend ordered the French Toast and it was also amazing - very fluffy and full of flavor and fruit. Both my parents ordered the trifecta and felt it was the perfect amount of food. Both of their pancakes came out fluffy and delicious. I wouldn't want to wait again, but I would easily revisit soon! If I lived nearby this would be my go-to brunch place as long as they kept the Elotes bowl. read more

Food was decent. I had the eggs benedict with smoked salmon. Eggs were fairly well poached. Here's the description of the dish from their website: "Two poached cage-free eggs atop toasted ciabatta piled high with Wild Alaska Smoked Sockeye Salmon, red onion and vine-ripened tomato and covered with hollandaise. Served with lightly dressed organic mixed greens." Reality: "piled high" = one slice per egg. "lightly dressed" = lettuce straight from the bag, baby...dressing? what's that? For a $12 dish, could you at least throw a girl an ACTUAL side dish? I was still starving after my two eggs and skimpy amount of smoked salmon. Well, looking back at the menu, I see that I missed the note where you can request potatoes instead of bare lettuce leaves. Whoops. My bad. Anyway, the eggs benedict were was nothing to write home about (like Leila A said in her review, "My eggs weren't spectacular"), but perhaps I didn't order to First Watch's strengths. So, let's address the three "featured dishes" per the Yelp page here: I have zero interest in $9 avocado toast (too easy to make at home for so much cheaper), and the superfoods bowl is a little off-putting at over 1000 calories. The elevated egg sandwich might be worth a try? The worst issue was probably the service. We were there for a weekday brunch, and it wasn't at all crowded. The waitress repeatedly failed to bring us items we requested -- we're talking water and silverware; nothing high-maintenance. Just the basics. She seemed too busy to attend to us, much less remember to bring us those basic things. We actually had to flag down another waitress to get silverware. I don't think I'd ever wait in line to eat here, but maybe I need to give it another chance and order differently. Still, it's disappointing when a brunch place -- especially one that seems to market being fresh and healthy, rather than hyping their baked goods -- doesn't wow you with their egg dishes. read more

It was Saturday morning and we Decided not to cook breakfast and headed to First Watch, a place my wife frequented with her friends. Very clean and open. The noise level beats most restaurants in Dallas! Nice! I ordered Parma hash with 2 eggs over medium. The hash was hot, well flavored with sausage and the eggs perfect. My wife had the elevated egg sandwich and was quite happy, noting it was very tasty; it came with lots of potatoes. The server, Taylor, was very good. By 10am the restaurant was filling. We will return! read more

Wonderful tasty food, great atmosphere and service. Wait time was long on a Saturday around 1pm. I ordered the summer special the elite Mexican corn hash, carrot cake pancake and a cup of coffee. Coffee wasn't too great; very watery with no whole milk and those cheap non-dairy creamers but besides that the rest of the meal was GREAT!!! The pancake had crunchy shredded carrots they gotta cook this more but it's so good regardless. read more

This is a cute place to come for brunch/lunch, the restaurant is decorated farmhouse style and has delicious food options. I came here for that avocado toast ($9.99)! It was very filling and quite tasty. The toast is really thick and is served with a huge mound of fresh avocado mixture on top. It comes with a side of eggs, I chose scrambled. The eggs came with fresh parsley flakes on top. I also ordered a side of bacon ($4.99). The first round of bacon was cold (not room temperature, but cold), so we sent it back for a scolding hot batch. I will for sure be back to try some of their sweet menu options. read more

Check your receipt! First Watch 11661 Preston Rd Suite 127, Dallas, TX 75230. We called and complained that extra charges had been added to our bill on Christmas Eve - 2 meals cost us almost $60.00. Was told by the manager that "waitress forgot to close out previous ticket". He told me they could not reverse the credit card charge but promised to send me a $40 gift card which never arrived. Truly screwed twice, will never eat at a First Watch again. Shame, shame, shame. read more

Top notch brunch spot! My friend and I were in the area for our monthly 'rip and sip' (lady maintenance appointments followed by brunch), and were referred here by our esthetician. She told us we had to try their millionaires bacon (which is 4 slices baked with brown sugar, black pepper, cayenne, and a maple syrup drizzle). We did and I'm still dreaming about it 2 months later. Parking can be a mess because of all the other establishments within the same lot, but we were able to snag a spot without too much trouble. There was a 20 or so minute wait, but the free coffee near the host stand makes the time pass more pleasantly. Once seated, we decided to share both a savory and sweet plate along with a side order of that magical bacon. The portions are generous so it was plenty of food for us both. Our savory choice was biscuits and turkey sausage gravy with scrambled eggs and seasoned potatoes. The texture of the biscuits were nice and flaky, but the gravy itself was a bit bland. Our sweet pick was their seasonal cinnamon roll waffle. It's a Belgian waffle topped with cinnamon syrup, cream cheese frosting, toasted pecans, and powdered sugar. Every bite felt like a luxurious treat. Perfection. The coffee is also fantastic and there is no shortage of options. They have a fresh juice bar, pancakes (the lemon ricotta ones shall be mine on our return visit), French toast made with brioche, omelets and frittatas, healthy oatmeal & granolas, soups, sandwiches, salads, etc. All for reasonable prices too. Definitely give them a try, and make sure you have the No Wait App as I later found out they are on there. read more

Rachel the server acted like she couldn't be bothered to assist us. Just very "whatever" attitude. Asked for no sour cream, got sour cream. Only thing that tasted good was the iced coffee. Ordered the Chorizo Omelette and it was Sprinkled with chorizo. Seasoned potatoes were again sparsely sprinkled with seasoning and not cooked all the way. Elderly woman at the checkout also couldn't be bothered with anything. Didn't ask how the meal was just asked for my card then stared at me when the transaction was complete. I had to ask for my receipt and then she asked if this was my order? Just a bad experience. I try to give people the benefit of the doubt but bad is bad, and it seems this is normal for this location. read more

Literally UH-MAY-ZINNNG. This was my first time at this place and it also happened to be my first yelp elite event (whoop) and goodness gracious I was completely blown away! They have great service and a very chill and homey atmosphere. The food was spectacular. The service was phenomenal. And the atmosphere and amount of care and effort they put into everything was out of this world! Will most definitely be back! Especially for their million dollar bacon!!!! Highly recommend!!!! read more

Used the yelp feature to get on the waitlist before we even left the house on a Sunday morning. This was SO incredibly useful, you just need to make it about halfway through the estimated time to check in and you're all set. Plus, the free coffee while waiting doesn't hurt either. Ambiance/decor is so homey and adorable, and service was great. Their breakfast menu looked great so my boyfriend ordered the banana crunch pancake and eggs benedict with salmon. The pancake reminded me exactly of a banana walnut muffin hehe. Unfortunately the poached eggs on the Benedict were overcooked and ended up being solid yolk but other than that, it tasted good. I opted for their great value lunch combo: 1/2 veggie sandwich and 1/2 kale salad and omggg both were awesome, would order again. For a veggie sandwich, it had a lot of substance because of the roasted mushrooms and pesto. Yummm. I'd definitely recommend to others and it's so close to where i live hehe. read more
