Sofia was an amazing waitress! She was super friendly, provided great customer service, and made me feel so welcomed. She made our experience even better. Thank you, Sofia! read more

This is a fairly new location. We had been to another and left because the wait was too long. We thought we'd give this location a try since they are more convenient for us. Because we knew there would be a wait, we put ourselves on the wait list as we left home. Still, when we arrived, there was a considerable wait. Though it was hot, we decided to forego the wait and dine outside. They did have fans which were a little helpful, but misters would have made the patio more accommodating. Our server was attentive and cheerful. She accommodated my wife's request for unsweetened iced coffee which was nice. After the drinks came out, we promptly ordered. I had the Ham & Gruyere melt with Million Dollar potatoes. Everything was really good. I loved the bacon in the potatoes. My wife had the Tri-Fecta with two eggs, waffle and sausage. Again, everything was good. The place is modern stylish, the food is good and there's plenty of parking. My only criticism is the wait, especially for breakfast when you're hungry. There are other places that I really like without the long wait and good food that I would give preference to. Maybe things will settle down after they have been here for a while. Still overall, a pleasant experience. read more

My wife and I tried the new First Watch in Goodyear on Saturday for an early Fathers Day breakfast. We got seated at a wobbly , dirty table and waited about 10 minutes hoping someone would greet us, ask if we wanted to get started on coffee, or water or something. But unfortunately...nothing. Lots of servers and staff walking around but not one stopped by to say"welcome". We got up and left and told the hostess on the way out the reason we were leaving. I don't think she really cared nor did she ask if there was anything she could do. Just a blank stare. I can't imagine how service was the following day for Father's Day breakfast !! For a new restaurant opening in the fast-growing Goodyear Square, one would think the management could do better! Because word of mouth and bad reviews can be bad for business. We do not recommend First Watch -Goodyear. And why doesn't Yelp have negative stars? read more

Great service !! Nayelie was amazing Lovely disposition!! Amazing food!! Eggs Benedict BLT wonderful Outrageous pancakes!! We will be back!! Thank you!! read more

While I love the fresh healthy food, the cost has increased and the portion sizes are smaller. I always get the market hash and there is a lot less on the plate than the last time I went yet the price increased. Disappointing. $40 for 2 entrees and a kids meal is ridiculous. Eating out is expensive. read more

Best omelet me we have had in years! Our first time here, won't be our last. Chile Chorizo omelet for me, my wife had the Works omelet! So dam good, fresh, fluffy, amazing! Thought our omelet would just come with potatoes, it did not, comes with a very plain salad, which I didn't eat. We had one pancake to try, also very good. Also tried the Honey butter biscuit bites with jam. Not my thing. Very dense, not fluffy, my wife likes them this way, me not so much.I love that they leave a coffee pot on your table, abd a bottle of cold water too! Had to wait for a table, on a Friday morning. Worth the wait. A little noisy, people talking and hip music playing just a bit loud. That being said, we will definitely be back! Simple place, laid back, staff is very good. Parking can be tuff. Right next door to Trader Joe's, so always a lot of cars. read more

These guys serve up a mean brunch! The food is great: clean, healthy, flavorful! We ordered their 'Veggie Burger', 'Chimichurri Steak & Eggs Hash' and the 'Lemon Blueberry Cornbread', and the made-to-order portions made for a filling and savory experience. Also, try their 'Iced Coffee' to start your morning... a little sweet, but it wakes you up! read more

Starting with the reason, the review is a three. She did two things, take our order, and give us our bill. We had to ask her 3 times for ice, ended up getting it ourselves at the bar. Asked for a to go box, ended up asking somebody else. She was more interested in getting new people in her station, there was zero listening. The Chilaquiles had great flavor and priced well the chickachonga sauce was lemon (too) strong, but enjoyed it. read more

I had the BLT Benedict, which was delicious. The hollandais sauce was creamy and lemony. It was served with arugula/mixed greens, which was surprisingly good. The highlight of the meal, however, was the orange juice. Just delicious! read more

I literally love this place! It's ALWAYS PACKED but for a good reason! Everyone is so friendly and accommodating. I love that their food is fresh and always so delicious! This is by far the best location with the best employees read more

I have been going to First Watch at various locations for many years. I recently went to this one in Goodyear. The service was friendly and restaurant was clean. I usually order the Lemon Ricotta pancakes that are very good. However, this time I ordered the Monterey sandwich. It was tasteless. I asked for fresh greens on the side and were put on the sandwich anyway and on the side. The fresh greens on the side were served with no dressing. Some of the bacon was soggy. Not sure I will return. read more

1st visit at this location. It was FREEZING! I had to get up and wait outside while my hubby waited on the bill to arrive. I ordered the Honey Pecan salad which I highly recommend. The dressing is sweet so I'd also recommend you order it on the side and add as needed. Our server was very nice and friendly, but unfortunately my husband had ordered the Cobb salad & soup and she put in an order for the Honey Pecan salad. She was very apologetic and ordered him the Cobb salad to go. Good customer service. I'll give it another try and hope it's not so cold the next time. read more

This First Watch location has been open about a month. We arrived at 10:25 AM on a Thursday hoping for a smaller crowd. The restaurant was packed and we had about a 20 minute wait for a table for two. It's a nice modern restaurant and I didn't pay too much attention to the decor as we were seated. We had to wait 5 minutes or so for our server to greet us at the table and ask for our drink orders. Other than that, service was excellent. We placed our drink and meal order and were surprised at how fast the food came out. I had the eggs Benedict. I didn't care for it because the eggs were barely cooked. Very runny whites and of course runny yolks. Eggs Benedict are supposed to have a "set opaque white and a warm runny yolk". The ham was cool to the touch. My wife had the lemon ricotta pancakes (which is her favorite dish at First Watch). These were good. We'll likely be back, but I probably won't order the Classic Eggs Benedict again. read more

Sofia was an amazing waitress! She was very attentive, friendly, and efficient throughout our visit. She made our dining experience even more enjoyable with her wonderful personality. My husband decided to leave her tip entirely in one-dollar bills as a joke, and she was such a good sport about it! She laughed and appreciated his sense of humor. It was a fun little moment that made our experience even more memorable. Thank you, Sofia, for the excellent service! read more

Oh my GOODNESS this place is amazing. I was so pleased with my food. The food was LITERALLY AMAZING. You could tell everybody there was having a good time.

Unnie did great helping us and attended all our needs. Great server! Food took a bit long but was delicious and worth the wait.

Went to this location today in hopes of another delicious meal but, instead of getting my normal eggs Benedict I chose to try the new Barbacoa chilaquiles bowl. It needs work. Very little meat for the price you will pay for this meal. Mostly was beans, egg pre bagged store bought corn tortillas chips and a tablespoon of what they call Barbacoa. After addressing the concern they comped me some more meat. In my opinion, Over Easy's chilaquiles are way better. On the plus side of today's experience, the chairs we sat on were very comfortable. The wait staff that we had was pleasant and understanding to the customers experience. The manager of this location was also understanding our customer experience. I hope in the near future as far as this plate is concerned they would refine this plate to be better. read more

Upon arrival, we had to wait a wee bit before there was an employee to greet and seat us. Their service is professional, friendly, and efficient. The menu is diverse and enticing. The food quality was excellent. Other than a wee bit of a wait upon entering, I would consider this establishment flawless. read more

I would like to praise & recognize Celeste. I left a review the other time & was actually for Celeste. I was confused with other person (she was very nice too). Celeste provide excellent service to us again last Sunday. My honest opinion, so far from First Watch service & food, we are very much satisfied. Other employees are very nice too. Week before Sunday a gentleman who served us at bar counter also was very nice. Like l mentioned other review, Celeste handles the job very seriously with professional manner. It makes us more enjoyable... The last visit, we tried other foods, Monterey Club Sandwich & Baja Turkey Burger & they were very good. Now, when we go back to F.W, we may like to try different foods as well. read more

Food is decent. Vibes are kind of cool. Service was hit or miss, had to wait a while to order and then had to flag down the server any time we needed something. Not sure if they were short staffed or what. I'd probably come back simply to keep trying out the different gluten free options. read more

Wanted to really like this place, but sigh... the good: omelette was good fancy potato's (forget the name) was good, salad tasted very fresh, and initial service was great. But.... Pancake with granola rather dry and not overly tasty. "Million dollar bacon" is overpriced for moderately think strips of bacon with some honey glaze drizzled on them. Sandwiches were ok. Cornbread was dry. Service started out great, but then, well, nothing until the end. When water isn't refilled during the meal at all, no coffee refreshes; nothing. Did get very nice to-go containers and brought plenty home - not a good sign usually. Oh, and cold! Bring your sweater! Drafty where we sat - perhaps better sitting elsewhere but we all froze! Saw some folks sitting outside on patio but didn't see any misters going. Weird. And construction right across the street with a lot of dust so be aware. read more

I ordered the lemon pancakes which were tasty enough that I didn't need any maple syrup. The service was ok, but it did take 15 minutes to get our order taken and then 30 min to get our food. The dishes smelled kinda funky, which is a weird thing to mention but gross enough that I wanted to mention it. In summary, good food, mid service, and weird smelling dishes read more

Went for the first time today just before noon. Wife had a yogurt bowl off the breakfast menu and she liked it. I wanted more of a lunch so got the hot ham and cheese. It was just ok as it had no flavor. So .I asked for some mustard and they don't have mustard! Whats a restaurant that serves sandwiches doesn't have mustard? Oh, and the bill, with tip came in at $47. Not sure it was worth it... read more

Today I ate what most would call breakfast. I ordered smoked salmon Benedict I told the waitress that I wanted cheesy grits. She asked me if I wanted the salad that came with it. I said oh no just the grits. Low and behold, my food arrived no grits but a salad. It was bad enough that it wasn't right but my food was very cold I sent it back and just ate the grits, that took forever to receive.. Not to mention I ordered a coke, which they didn't have, I asked for ice tea, it took forever to get the tea. By the way the restaurant wasn't busy. My granddaughter ordered apple juice but got lemonade. My daughter ordered water and she received it but particles were floating around in it and the carafe was dirty. When we were ready to leave my daughter asked the waitress for a small box, she never brought it. My daughter ended up getting up and asking the busboy for one. This restaurant is in my neighborhood, I decided to give them a try. Food is too expensive for substandard service and food. I would not recommend. I ate a cup of grits and left there hungry. If I could give zero stars I would read more

I have had great experiences at the First Watch locations in Peoria and in Tucson, so I was very disappointed with the customer service here. I arrived when the restaurant was not busy (at 12:50pm on February 12th), but it took me 5 minutes before I was seated. Then, I noticed an elderly Black gentleman who had arrived before I did, who was waiting patiently, but was not being served. A White family who arrived ten minutes after I did was seated immediately and was served immediately. I left without ordering even though I and my toddler were hungry. I will not spend my money here. I am Black, for full transparency, though not all non-Black people can tell. read more

I went starving and could eat anything, i didn't want to eat it anymore after the first few bites. The service is fine, the drinks are overpriced and almost require you to get a refill because they are so small. The food is absolutely nothing special, it's not even good. pancakes just tasted off, the egg was gross, bread even worse, It's nobody fault in the kitchen or service, you can't control the way they make you cook it/ recipe. read more

horrible service 10:30 am had to walk out after we were seated no one came to us for like 15 mins
