    Lemon  pancakes
    Ngoc H.

    I went here after a short hike nearby. I knew they were closing soon, but was hoping that they could get us in. We were able to sit down, but I felt the meal was rushed. The potatoes came out cold and the staff you could tell that they were annoyed because it was almost closing time and they wanted to go home which I get. I still think, what I paid I should've gotten a quality meal. Ambiance was chill as always.

    Fall Harvest Hash

    Haven't been in a very long time, and had a BOGO coupon, so decided to go again on our way out of the valley. It was nice and quiet, very good service, delicious food. I had the Fall Harvest Hash and my husband had the biscuits and gravy plate. Enough of mine for me to take home half of it for the next day. Wish they would get a location in the Prescott area, but glad to go anytime we are down the hill.

    We courageously decided to take our 1 & 2 year old out to breakfast this morning at First Watch and it was wildly successful in every way! My grandparents used to take my brother and I to first watch when we were kids and I have fond memories of hot chocolate and pancakes so it was a treat to take my own babies to do the same. When we got to the restaurant we were immediately greeted and asked to sit out on the patio that is lovely decorated and very spacious so we had plenty of room for our kiddos to spread out and eat without grabbing at each other or our food!! Once seated our waiter Anthony took our order and also brought the kids coloring pages and crayons to entertain them. He was very friendly and attentive throughout our meal. The menu boasts breakfast and lunch options for every tastebud and diet. As it is the new year and health is a top priority we went with chocolate chip pancakes, lemon ricotta pancakes, eggs and bacon of course...ok so we will get the egg white omelet next time. Anyway, we enjoyed some apple and orange juice along with coffee while we waited for our food and the patio was a pleasant place to do so. Our kids did beautifully being patient and coloring away and then our delicious and beautiful food arrived. It was the kids first time having chocolate chip pancakes and they loved every bite (so did I)! The eggs and bacon were cooked perfectly and it was all super yummy. The whole experience was lovely and filled our tummies for a day of fun. The inside of First Watch is very spacious and filled with booths to seat large parties as well as breakfast for two. Many breakfast spots have sticky tables due to the syrup intake but everywhere was clean and stick free. The cost of breakfast here is fairly pricey, but the food is good and it seems as though prices are up everywhere, so you'd be hard pressed to find a meal for less. We are trying to get out for breakfast more as a family and we thoroughly enjoyed First Watch today; we will be back soon and often!

    Very attentive happy server. Restaurant is clean and open. They have indoor and outdoor seating. From the outside might look small but it is spacious. They have great healthy selections. I had the traditional breakfast and watermelon juice from their seasonal menu. Food tasted great. Overall good experience. If you do come on a weekend there is more of a wait.

    Trifecta breakfast.

    First time here . Breakfast was amazing! Waitress was great . This place is bright and buzzing.

    Bacon club sandwich with potatoes

    Pesto Chicken Power Bowl
    Norm W.

    Enjoyed a business lunch at First Watch at this location. Enjoyed the Chicken Pesto Power Bowl. It was fresh filling and very tasty. The menu has many healthy choices. Service was great and will definitely be back when in the area.

    Strawberry tres leches French toast
    Matt Z.

    Great breakfast specials. The strawberry tres leches French toast was exceptionally good, with a side of million dollar bacon which is a breakfast staple. Bailey was our waitress and kindly topped off our coffee to go. Great service.

    Monica R.

    As a tourist, and I don't go many times in chains. , but my friend loves this place. And, they deserve to be busy all the time. Really good quality food, creative plates and drinks. I have never eaten a omelette with cod fish and salmon. It was wonderful. The ambiance is modern, cozy and you can have conversation naturally. If you stop in Phoenix, look which location is close to you for brunch.

Annoying, honestly. But we walked around Home Depot next door to kill the time. We sat outside and were disappointed most of the chairs had not been cleaned (almost all of them had some bird poop on them), but we managed to find two chairs that were clean. The chairs themselves are not comfortable, though, and I would be remiss if I didn't warn my thick thigh/bigger hipped girlies to let you know they have wire bucket chairs that can be very uncomfortable to sit in. All that said, the food was good! The service was also good. We enjoyed our coffees which were very good, shared an apple pastry warmed up that was very flavorful and fresh, and shared a high protein egg white plate all very tasty. Would we come back? Maybe. Also: how are you called the black and white cafe and don't have a black and white cookie?! Seems like a huge missed opportunity there! Overall, the dining experience outside was less than desirable with the dirty tables and chairs. Also them not serving food when they opened seems like a mismanagement issue. But the food was good (so perhaps we would recommend sitting inside rather than outside).

While not a large dining experience, there are several different eating space options including a dog friendly patio. One of the quirks of S83 is the amount of live, and advertised, music. This can be loud after reverberating off the patio but the play list while we were there had everyone signing along and playing cornhole. Our server was also great with a lot of our requests and questions about the menu. We landed on Wagyu Social Burgers and White Cod Fish Tacos for the win. Tip: pay the $4 for an extra taco they are worth it. Also on the menu is a diverse drink menu with craft cocktails and a Brunch option with lots of breakfast staples. At the End of the Day the Happy Hour, live music / DJ, and menu offer up a great experience that makes repeat visits worth the drive to the Arrowhead area.

More recently, we noticed that there was now one on 75th and Rose Garden, so last weekend we tried it. The service was okay. My wife had the waffle with bacon and she liked it, but nothing special. I had the royal feast which consisted of 3 eggs, 2 bacon, 2 sausage, choice of potatoes and one pancake. My first complaint was that it was all served on one plate with the pancake on top just about covering everything else. Very difficult to eat that way! I managed, but it wasn't fun, especially since I wanted to eat the pancake last. The second complaint was the potatoes. I absolutely love the smell of rosemary and I can't walk by a bush without touching it and putting my fingers to my nose to smell it, but I can not stand the taste of it! For me, it is like eating perfume! I did not know that the homefries were cooked with rosemary! A lot of it! There were a half a dozen sprigs of it in my potatoes! If I ever eat there again for breakfast, I will be sure to order the hashbrowns. Nowhere on the menu was rosemary mentioned. One last thing is the name! Big Breakfast! I think that this is a misnomer. I think there is more bang for the buck at other restaurants, especially at Ronnie's Cafe, where we ate this morning! But, we had to give Matt's a try!
