    Scrumptious breakfast! Pancakes, Chickichanga, Vegetable entree
    Aisha A.

    It is a family friendly restaurant was packed on the weekend. The wait time was about 10 minutes. The service was as fast as they can be considering the amount of people pouring in, yet the order taken and food received was accurate so no complains here. The portion size of food is good enough and options of fruit drinks were very new n trendy. A refreshing change if you don't want to opt to have your coffee and I chose not to have coffee today! Always enjoy the open floor plan so people are always around, for families with lil kids kids menu has cute options like chocolate chip pancakes :) Bill has to be paid at the cash register on the way out though but the feel is lovely and hustle n bustle is good for people who like to socialize. But , please make sure if you have kids then you must be sitting with a segregated table as the bench seats get connected o other family seating and some people might not be too comfortable but over all had a great experience very healthy option on the menu , food quality is great.

    Chickichanga with the Million Dollar Potatoes

    My Fiancé and I made an appointment to check out a wedding venue nearby, and decided to get some breakfast before our appointment. Our first time at a first watch, and I thought the restaurant looked very nice inside, very clean as well. Our server was great and helped show me the menu, and I ended up ordering an alcoholic beverage that sounded interesting, the cinnamon toast cereal milk, which was actually really good! (RumHaven Coconut Rum, cold brew coffee, oat milk and agave nectar) I do recommend! For food I ordered the chickichanga which was a popular item highlighted in their menu,it had chicken chorizo, green chilies, onions, avocado, so great if you like Mexican breakfast flavors. It also had a unique sauce which to me almost had a lemony flavor or limey, which did pair well. My fiancé got the asada hash which she enjoyed! And we shared a plain pancake since we were both craving a good ole pancake and syrup. Overall we enjoyed our breakfast and had some leftovers to take home, we would definitely come back to another first watch the next time we are craving some brunch..

    First watch is in a great location! Deer Park is an awesome area. The menu isn't too large which is nice as well. My husband and I arrived around 12 & had a 15 minute wait which wasn't bad. One thing to note though, is if someone joins the waitlist online they will be seated before you (which is frustrating). I ordered the traditional for brunch today what is offered is nice. However, the eggs were so oily I could only eat one of them. I wish they did not pre-butter the toast either because it was too much. I like the story behind their hot coffee. They support a great roasting company. However, I just don't think we enjoyed our breakfast enough to want to run back.

    I met a friend at First Watch and we had an amazing experience. I love breakfast and order breakfast food every chance I get. Here I started with a hot chocolate. This was more than just a mix and water. It was rich any chocolatey. Big fan. I had the chocolate chip multigrain pancakes. These pancakes were huge. They only gave me two pancakes but I could only finish half of my meal. The syrup bottle came to the table warm. I like this touch. But they were delicious and hit the spot. Our sever was nice and friendly. I won't hesitate to come back and highly recommend First Watch!

    The best thing about first watch is the drinks and the service but the food is always sub par. After receiving another burnt pancake and one slice of bacon ... I am done and won't be returning in person or online. Parsley doesn't make the food better guys.

    Healthy Turkey

    First Watch always delivers for a quick yet elevated breakfast experience. We were seated in under 10 minutes after jumping "in line" online. I've been eyeing the cereal milk cocktail for a while and finally ordered it. WOW! Wonderful balance of coffee, cinnamon and sweetness. The healthy turkey is my go to order and it never disappoints. The feta and caramelized onion really make this dish standout. Don't skip the wheat bread either, it's addicting. My husband enjoyed his farmhouse skillet too. Good portion on all ingredients. His bloody also included a HUGE bacon garnish which was a nice perk for him.

    Veggie Sandwich & Greens
    Peter S.

    We had visited a First Watch when we were staying with family in Florida, and very much enjoyed it - becoming one of our favorite places in the area. We found out there are several locations that aren't too far away from where we live, so we were excited to come and try the First Watch in Kildeer... This location absolutely lived up to our expectations! Service was fast and friendly, with our server paying attention to our needs without being overbearing. The restaurant is very well lit, has a nice open dining area, and seems meticulously maintained. Food was prepared quickly, but with no corners cut. My veggie sandwich was excellent, and I shared a fresh pressed juice cocktail with my wife. The prices were very reasonable for the quality of food and service we received. This location is pretty conveniently located, with lots of parking around the building. I have a feeling we'll be getting breakfast or lunch here much more often, before doing shopping in the plaza.

    The Trifecta
    Corina G.

    Cute breakfast/brunch restaurant near Deer Park Town Center! We went pretty early (9am) on a Friday and there was no wait. I got The Trifecta, which is a fairly basic breakfast that includes eggs prepared your way, a breakfast meat, and a waffle or pancake. I opted for eggs over medium, bacon, and the Belgian waffle. Everything was prepared well and the food was tasty. The service was fine and our dishes came out pretty quickly. I enjoyed the whole experience, and I hope to come back and try more items on the menu.

    Had brunch here two weeks ago and it was a very fun time! There will definitely be a wait on a weekend morning, but if you're prepared, it's not too bad. Our party of four all ordered differently, but I got the Traditional Breakfast, which was tasty, but I feel the portion was a little small. The atmosphere was pleasant in the dining room with lots of light and clean booths and tables. Nice place for a chill brunch. Great service, too!

    First watch is a great brunch option. Their drinks are fantastic, service is good, and overall experienced great. Prepared to to wait 20 or so minutes to get seated, as this place is super popular. Get your Instagram pictures all set as there are dishes are colorful and their presentation is on point.

    Turkey gravy over a biscuit, potatoes, and eggs
    Emily G.

    Very middle of the road breakfast restaurant in my opinion. Everything ordered came out as expected, however, nothing was memorable or impressive. There were plenty of open tables on a Sunday morning and service was good. I ordered the turkey gravy over a biscuit with potatoes and eggs. The gravy was very pepper heavy and the biscuit was more bready than flaky, but it was still tasty. The potatoes could be crisped up a bit more, but were seasoned very well. My friends enjoyed their orders and were satisfied.

    Bacado Omelet
    Ashley H.

    Service was awesome our server was attentive, quick, bubbly and helpful. My omelette was delicious I would def get it again. The restaurant is really cute the perfect spot to catch up with friends!

    A busy Saturday at First Watch

    Good but more expensive than our other LZ area breakfast spots. Normally see lines outsides on the weekends so harder to get into.

    We enjoyed Easter lunch at Stony River!…read more We started with the deviled eggs appetizer. They were delicious! The best candied bacon pieces I've ever had on top. Then the yolk filling was full of relish and chunky pickles, yum. Next up, four entrees...Cobb Salad takes the top ranking with the perfect portion of dressing, excellent bacon and avocado with perfectly cooked chicken breast. They forgot the egg, I was originally sad, but the salad with its mixed greens was amazing. My son got the bigger cut filet. It was thick! He loves medium rare, but with the height of the filet, he should have done medium to avoid the purple inner center. He got the truffle fries, honestly, awful, no potato, just skinny fried fries...pick another side. The salmon is up next with a pretty aggressive seasoning, a bit spicy. Very well cooked and huge portion, but get fresh cooked if you don't love spice. The Bistro Chicken, again, excellent. Great portion and yummy lemon and caper topping. The problem with the mains are the sides. The sides are the reason for 4 vs 5 stars. The broccoli was fine, but has that raw, earthy flavor versus buttery and or salty, our preference. The server we had was kind and attentive. She deserved 5 stars. She was great! Check them out for the mains, but more research needs to be done on picking the best sides...my guess...upgrade to a side salad or soup!

Every dish we've tried has been delicious, and the service is consistently excellent, whether we're seated at the bar or at a table. If you sit at the bar, you're treated to complimentary spiced popcorn (so good!) and can also ask for their signature rolls, which are almost like dessert -- warm, cinnamon-sugary, and served with whipped honey butter. My favorite dinner orders are the cheeseburger with parmesan fries and the bistro chicken (minus the capers). The cedar plank salmon and Tuscan chicken are also great choices.

    I'm a big fan of this concept with comfortable seating in a spacious restaurant, plenty of parking,…read moregreat presentation, friendly service, and attractive decor. Compared to similar restaurants in this space, I prefer to go here with friends for its generally quieter atmosphere and overall vibe. Maybe the biggest complaint here is that the food preparation can be a bit inconsistent between dishes, and between different meat types. That is, that the output can range from delicious to somewhat average (and sometimes overcooked), depending on what you order. For example the birria was super flavorful and served with very crisp tacos and a delicious consomme, but the cilantro-lime rice and refried beans felt like an afterthought. The smoked pork belly quesadillas had a great flavor and just about the right amount of fattiness that was short of perfection due to the pork being overcooked. The tres leches cake also had a great creaminess and flavor to it, but parts of the cake weren't really soaked in the milk at all, which created an inconsistent experience - depending on where I took the bite. On everything I tried though, the presentation was excellent and there were enough great things about each dish to overcome some of the shortfalls. Overall though, I feel with improved execution on ensuring that all elements of the dishes are equally good in terms of texture and flavor -- there's a lot to love about Ancho & Agave. But even in its current state, it's still an enjoyable spot to take a group of friends for tasty food in an impressive looking spot.

    My boss and I came here for a quick lunch and it did not disappoint…read more We really enjoyed their complimentary chips and salsa. I don't know what it is, but there is something distinct about them that separates them from other restaurants. Service was excellent where quality checks, keeping beverages filled, and reading when it was time to wrap it up came naturally. It is a very open style bistro which I love. I can see the vibe of this place during a dinner rush being a lot of fun (seems like this place can accommodate groups of all sizes). Ancho & Agave seems more Mexican-fusion than traditional-Mexican so for what it is, I'd say overall it's very good and would definitely return.
