    elevated egg sandwich
    Ruth S.

    Family friendly place, with a wide menu perfect for brunch! I got the carne asada breakfast tacos but preferred the original better. Everyone was satisfied with their food! We went on a busy day so the service wasn't the greatest but would definitely go again for a better experience.

    Floridian French toast

    This was our first trip here. I have been itching to go here for breakfast, but usually hard to hit up with a five day work week. We were surprised coming in. It wasn't as difficult to get a table for brunch. After being seated, they quickly took our order and sent it to the kitchen. I would say preparation time may be longer than the typical breakfast joints around here. I had the Floridian French toast, which looked exactly like the menu picture, which is great. It was spot on for taste and just the right amount of sweetness. My wife got the seasonal maple bacon and egg croissant sandwich, which was a bit on the sweeter side. The potatoes unfortunately were over salted and almost difficult to eat. Overall, I'll have to give it another try to make up my mind whether I truly like it over the other breakfast options in Southwest Fort Wayne.

    Steak and eggs Chimichurri.

    We had the Steak and eggs chimichurri. It was quick, hot, and wonderfully seasoned. Our server John was top notch. Gordon Ramsey would hire this young man. The atmosphere was peaceful, bright , and very clean. A new favorite. Oh not mention the coffee was right up there too!

    New First Watch!!

    It just opened and had a long wait time. It's a large space, has outdoor seating and also some alcoholic drinks on the menu. Once the newness settles down I hope it will be a fun delicious spot

    Smoked Salmon Frittata and delicious fresh tomato basil soup (which we shared)

    Third visit to First Watch today. Got seated immediately, a pleasant surprise! Our server, Jacquelin, could not have better! Husband had the summer menu special, the Elote Burrito (partially eaten and pictured below). It's a grilled tortilla filled with chorizo, scrambled eggs, freshly seasoned potatoes, diced red bell pepper, 2cheeses, black beans and avocado, topped with Vera Cruz hollandaise, roasted corn salsa, Cotija cheese, house-pickled red onions, chipotle aioli, Tajin® and cilantro. HUGE! He said, although filling, he'd definitely order it again! I chose a cup of Italian Wedding soup (not pictured), which was good, but their tomato bisque is even better. Also the "healthy menu" item: Avocado Toast on a slice of their whole grain, wonderful artisan toast (had them top it with tomato), which was accompanied by 2 perfectly basted eggs. It was delicious but I think chef was a bit heavy handed, per my taste, with the Maldon sea salt over all. We love that their wonderful coffee comes to the table in its own pot, and water ice cold in a carafe. All in all, another very satisfying experience!

    We had a great experience! The service was great and the food was super fresh. Grateful for the coffee on the table. The million dollar bacon was awesome to start with. My husband got the chicken chonga with million dollar potatoes and fruit. I got the maple chipotle chicken hash from the season menu with cheesy grits! It was all wonderful! If you are concerned about the wait time, it's a huge benefit to use the in line list on the website while you are driving in!

    I was visiting a friend and he suggested this because he had never been. We were seated right away but then sat for over 10 minutes before being acknowledged. We finally stopped a server and asked if we had a server for our table. They said they were alert our server. Another server stopped by to say she wasn't ur server about to take drink orders. Then finally our server comes up, with no apology and asked if we were ready to order. Of course we were, we had been sitting for close to 20mins now. The orange juice is not fresh squeezed so I went with an iced tea. I ordered the eggs Benedict plain with no meat and the potatoes. My friend got the farmhouse hash. We both enjoyed our food. The absentness of the server and lack of empathy for waiting around is enough for us to say we won't go back and to not recommend it.

    Location is good. Plenty of parking. Friendly staff. Decent amount of seats and booths. Our waitress was fairly new, so she forgot our water three times, but I understand. Coffee was delicious but really strong. I got a buzz from it, lol. I like how they give you the coffee pot thermal at the table so you can refill your own drink. I also liked the glass that had our water was in, which you can also pour your own water at any time. I was glad I could substitute my potatoes for an arugula salad. I was hoping the omelet would be bigger, like a long rectangular shape, not a half circle, for $15.00. They could have put more chorizo in my omelet. The toast was delicious. My friend got the skillet and asked for the whites to be done and extra crispy bacon, which both were not, unfortunately. The atmosphere was amazing and made you feel like you were at home! Overall, I really appreciate this establishment and can't wait to try other things on the menu. I truly believe we lack breakfast restaurants in Fort Wayne. This place serves breakfast all day long!

    Eggs Benedict With Salmon
    Zhanna C.

    Really liked the place--clean, minimalistic vibe with a calm, no-fuss atmosphere. The food was solid with a nice mix of options on the menu. Portion sizes are very European (you'll get it once you see the plate), but the flavors make up for it. Despite being pretty busy, the service was surprisingly attentive and friendly. Overall, a great little spot that knows what it's doing.

    Hubby and I have breakfast for lunch, always a great choice. We had Fritatta Rustica, Multigrain Pecan carrot cake pancakes (2), and a Mint Mocha Iced coffee. The iced coffee was on the seasonal menu, a great tasting choice! Needless to say we had leftovers to enjoy again! The pancake tasted just like a carrot cake, and covered the whole large plate.

    Avocado toast and the Trifecta

    The food was delicious! You must try the blueberry lemon cornbread - it was amazing! The iced coffee hit the spot. We thoroughly enjoyed our breakfast

    It was father's day and even though we waited it was definitely worth the wait. Everything was absolutely delicious

    I don't even know where to start because this was indeed A HIDDEN GEM. As a chef, I am real picky…read moreabout doors and literally everything tasted was chefs kiss. What I really admitted about this place is the owner walking around communicating with everyone and checking to see if everything was going ok!! She was really sweet. Also shoutout to our server Noah who was awesome and funny. Not only was he gents or he also recommended! For it to be a carpeted space, it was very clean on the inside and smelled really fresh. The smell of food hit me before I even got inside. The seats were comfortable and they even had bar searing as well as an event space room. The food really deserves its own review but I can't leave two . Everything I would get again no questions asked! My only suggestion would be maybe add a tad of seasoning to the wings but the smoke flavor and sauce was too tier! Easy 10/10 for me!

Crispy, melty, and YUMMY. Service/Ambiance: The staff was friendly and greeted me right away. They let me sit wherever I wanted. Overall ambiance is very laid back, definitely divey. Felt like the youngest one there and maybe got a few stink eyes, but hey I came for the food. :) Might build my own burger next time and see what happens. Bottoms up Morgan's!

They gave us all the sauces that came with it plus the ones that we requested. The margaritas were huge and very tasty. Hit the spot for sure. One was all we needed.

The salad was great, however, the three grilled pork loins were only about 3-4" in diameter and about 3/8" thick. They were charred, over cooked and mostly inedible, similar to jerky. Probably about 4 ounces of meat. The Mac and cheese was mostly soup. A small bowl of cheese sauce with a few pasta shells in it. They comped my meal but for $16.00 charged was ridiculous. My wife ordered a margarita which was mostly tequila. Couldn't even drink it.
