    Jelly all over the seat

    We decided to visit this First Watch as we'd never been here before. I'll say I have mixed feelings and wanted to rate a 3, but it wouldn't have matched my individual ratings for Food, Service, and Atmosphere. The food was tasty, well seasoned and came out fast. Unlike other places, they leave the coffee pot so you're not waiting for a refill. However, it did cramp a 2 person table a bit. I was disappointed by the orange juice as it tasted like an off brand Sunny Delight instead of real orange juice. The service was fast and attentive. We were seated right away at 9 am on a Saturday and were checked on multiple times. The atmosphere was quiet and there was enough space between people. However, I was disappointed by the cleanliness. I had to watch were I was sitting because my seat was covered with jelly (2 person booth closest to the kitchen). Paying was fast and easy.

    Traditional breakfast

    Food was cold, overcooked bacon and overall just bland but coffee was good. Service was slow but still great and the ambiance is lovely. I won't be returning.

    The bacon fall special and the pancake fall special. It was giant! They were both sooo good!

    Great food and amazingly friendly and attentive service. I feel like everyone is familiar with first watch but if you're not it's a great spot for versatile, delicious and affordable breakfast and brunch they have healthy options and fresh juices and even a variety mixed alcoholic brunch drinks. We did have one small misshap in which we weren't expecting anything it was so small and the manager came over and offered us a coupon. A small town feel that wants you to keep coming back :)

    Trifecta with our choice of chicken sausage, belgian waffle & scrambled eggs

    Large menu Clean venue Friendly staff Table is set with coffee mugs. A part of me appreciated it as I am a coffee drinker then the other part of me felt that could be a little wasteful as I was the only one at the table drinking coffee. So an unnecessary re-run through the dishwasher. They left the insulated coffee pot at the table which again I had mixed feelings about. I enjoyed the convenience of having right there if I wanted more but I only planned on having one glass so On the other side, it was was unnecessary. We loved they brought a carafe of water so we could refill our own glasses. There are so many delicious sounding items to choose from but we ended up with the trifecta breakfast plate and frittata rustica. Both were delicious! The syrup served warm is a nice touch. If I had one suggestion for improvement- the salad served with the frittata could have benefited from being tossed in the dressing a bit with a tad of salt for flavor. We look forward to going back to First Watch to eat our way through the menu.

    Avocado toast with 2 sunny side up

    Brunch is my favorite of the meal of the day! With that being said, my standards are pretty high when it comes to breakfast. First Watch has won me over again and again!!! Let's just say when I'm feeling plain and simple on a nice summer day, I go for their iced coffee. When the weather gets a little cooler, their regular black coffee just hits the spot. Out of all honesty, my all time favorite drink is the morning meditation; it's so colorful with a nice blend of orange, lemon, turmeric, and ginger aka all the immunity booster ingredients. I will tell you there's a different mood for every dish. If you're feeling classic, get the trifecta with the Belgian waffle. That waffle is so soft and fluffy. I love pairing this with bacon and 2 sunny side up eggs. For those with a voracious appetite. I would get the farmhouse skillet hash. You will not be disappointed as it has everything delicious - bacon and avocado. The potatoes are well-seasoned and the roasted tomatoes & onions are very tasty. If you're in a healthy and hungry mood, get their Florentine egg benedict. It has the veggies (fresh spinach), protein (poached eggs), and carbs. You are left very satisfied and not overly full. I can probably review their entire menu at this point. They also have a seasonal menu. With fall coming up, I remember when I had their delicious pumpkin spice donuts and elote Mexican street corn hash. Let's just say you're safe to explore the menu as you're bound to find something scrumptious. Oh, you know I'll be back!

    Hoffbrau Steakhouse definitely deserves an update from my original 2-star review. I came back with…read moretempered expectations and was pleasantly surprised -- this visit was a completely different experience. The food quality was noticeably improved. The steak was cooked correctly, flavorful, and much closer to what you expect when you walk into a long-standing Texas steakhouse. Sides were hot, fresh, and felt intentional rather than an afterthought. It finally tasted like a place that knows what it's trying to be. Service was also a big step up. Attentive, friendly, and much more organized than before, which made the meal relaxed instead of frustrating. The pacing felt right, and we didn't have to chase anyone down for basics. The atmosphere is still classic Hoffbrau -- casual, old-school, and comfortable -- and this time it worked in their favor. I'm glad I gave them another shot. While there's still room to grow, this visit earned a solid 4 stars and restored some confidence. I'll actually be back again, which I didn't think I'd say after my first visit.

I ordered the king burger with ranch for my fries but wasn't asked about burger condiments. It came with lettuce, tomato, onion, and cheese, but the bun was undressed and without the ranch for my fries. I asked twice, but it never came. By the time our waitress checked in, my husband had finished and I hadn't touched my food. I asked for ranch again when asking for a to-go box, it arrived on the third request. Disappointing service and lack of follow-through, though the steak was a highlight.

They cook their burgers just like you would in your own backyard...over an open fire grill. I got myself a cheeseburger, fries, and a drink combo.

They are now charging 50¢ per slice of tomato on top of their regular price due to a shortage & are overcompensating with onion. They used to be pretty generous with their fries - we got just enough to fill the slip. They also filled our cups to the brim with ice & we got very little soda. Considering we paid $4 for the fries and drink (a combo) to be added to the gyro, it's like a slap in the face to the customer to get so little for so much. The only thing consistent about the meal and past experiences was the homemade ranch. I know times are hard and the cost of things have also gone up, but it's these little things that make you consider taking your hard earned money somewhere else. 3 stars because we generally are happy with the food we get. It just might be a while until we patronize again.
