This was my 4th time visiting this location. The team there is friendly and attentive which is the main reason I continue returning. The restaurant is also clean and had spacious seating. The restaurant is also down the street from my house so it's very easily accessible. I came here with my bestie who was visiting from NY. Loved the Kale Tonic. I had the Market Hash which was delicious! My friend had the traditional breakfast, which she enjoyed. We ordered the Million Dollar Bacon. It was very good but not crispy at all. Next time I'll tell them to crisp it up. Always a pleasurable experience coming here. read more

As Lauderhill residents, my husband and I make it a priority to support local businesses, and First Watch is one we return to again and again. The reason is simple: this location consistently delivers exceptional customer service, every single visit. As a manager myself, I couldn't help but notice how genuinely engaged the staff seemed, so I asked to speak with the manager. I had to find out the secret. His name was Willie, and he shared that he makes it a point to motivate his team during their pre-shift meetings. My husband, who is also a small business owner, pointed out that it likely starts even earlier, at the hiring stage. Whatever the formula is, it is absolutely working. In the world we live in today, it is truly refreshing to encounter people who clearly love what they do. Willie and his team are a shining example of what great leadership looks like from the inside out. Well done, First Watch Lauderhill. read more

The food at First Wash is always so flavorful! The service there is also great. This is a great place for a casual meat up or a morning business meeting. One meal was accidentally left out of my bag and they mad sure to rectify the situation immediately. read more

Great breakfast, in FL. Bustling and energetic dining room. Busy but not packed. Got trifecta and a health bowl. On recommendation I got the waffles, and OMG it was good. Not cheap but good quality. Everything was good. read more

This spot is quality and the service is friendly and attentive--two things that can be rare these days! We're traveling through Fort Lauderdale so it was nice to find something this pleasing on a quick stop. I ordered the avocado toast, which is a personal go-to, and it did not disappoint! Well prepped, perfect taste of lemon and well seasoned. Lovely thick grain toast. And some fried medium eggs. Perfect portion for size for some protein and healthy fats. Hubs had the omelet (see pics). Enjoyed ourselves some specialty drinks too. read more

Tried this seasonal dish and it was really good an very filling. I would have preferred the bananas were sautéed in butter to soften them up a bit. But the combo was good non the less. I had the chicken patties as well and they were just ok.... I should've just did the million dollar bacon. Service as always is on point. I love that the waiters open the door for you. And the ambiance is always pleasant. read more

Terrible manager makes terrible experience - the staff is overwhelmed due to manager having no clue how to run the place

Needed breakfast after the gym and I had been craving thier pancakes. Our server was kind and honest in her opinions which made my decision easier. We sat outside which is always my first option and it was quiet and not to busy. Our food came out quick and hot. I left feeling stuffed because I could not stop eating.

Arrived to be greeted immediately and sat at a table this Saturday morning just after 9am. Quickly brought a glass jug of water and two cups. Coffee offered and declined. Wife decided on an Omelette with all the fixings and proteins. She loved the size and had a side of fruit which came home. They even offered a little extra fruit with the take home container. I ordered the traditional classic eggs Benedict. Eggs poached well and sauce had more than a hint of fresh lemon. It felt fresh. The ham included appeared to be two small deli slices kinda wrinkled and laid on 1/2 toasted chibatta roll. It came with a side and got the potatoes, but forgot to upgrade to their million dollar version, and they failed to ask. The end was quick with container to go and request to make payment thru QR code. Worked fine, but not really happy with QR codes in general. All in all a 4.5 to 5 star experience. read more

We had breakfast here this morning and it was okay. Not great but not bad. My omelette came with ham, sausage, cheese and tomatoes and topped with sour cream. The potatoes were okay. I didn't eat much of them. I would have preferred two slices of toast and no potatoes but I didn't know I was only getting one slice. All-in-all it was okay, but nothing better than that. read more

First Watch - Loaded omelette with toast and potatoes - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Lauderhill, Florida

We came here on our way to the park and it was ok but not the best. They had no cleaned silverware so we had to use plastic which was ok but not ideal for cutting anything. My potato's were burnt on one side but the sandwich was good, I wish I could have cut it in half.... My daughter really loved the waffle as it had a hint of cinnamon. The drink I ordered was also good but they gave me water in a kids cup because they didn't have clean glasses when I ordered water. Our waitress was nice and the food was ok but I think they may need to hire someone to help clean up. I'd come back to try again another day. read more

Not all are created equal but this one is pretty solid. This First Watch is located a in relatively small plaza on Commercial Blvd. parking can be tight depending on day/time. It's bright and clean with a rustic decor. I've ordered takeout twice for pick-up orders and twice on doordash. All four times the food was packaged well (sturdy containers, utensils, syrups, etc.) fresh and delicious. The service when I picked up my takeout, both times was friendly, helpful & efficient. Would definitely order from this location again. Giving them a four because I haven't dined in yet. read more

I went to this restaurant for breakfast and it was so delicious. The parking is free but very limited around breakfast time on The Weekends. I ate the trifecta which includes bacon, waffle or pancakes and with eggs. I substituted the bacon with the million dollar bacon which are my fave. It is an up charge but it is delicious. I loved the food but because the restaurant was busy I had to wait to get served and get my food. Overall an amazing experience. read more

They don't make the easiest fresh drinks the way it says you should get it on the menu. I ordered the Pineapple Express which was supposed to have a mint sugar rim. When it came to the table the mint powder was just lazily poured on top, completely ruining the drink for me. Don't be lazy with such a simple thing. read more

Worst experience ever at this First Watch. They completely screwed up my order -- I asked for the Tri-Athlete with chorizo and avocado and they didn't bother to add either. I drove back expecting them to fix their mistake, but instead of remaking the meal fresh, they just dumped the missing stuff into little containers like I'm supposed to fix it myself. Unbelievable. Then, to top it all off, as I'm eating I find a HAIR stuck to the bottom of the to-go plate. Absolutely disgusting. This place clearly doesn't care about customers, doesn't care about quality, and definitely doesn't care about cleanliness. I wouldn't recommend this location to anyone, and I'll never waste my money here again. read more

First Watch - That disgusting hair - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Lauderhill, Florida

After living in South Florida for almost seven years, I can't believe it took me this long to try a First Watch! I know there are several in the area and I have heard them come highly recommended by many a friend! My breakfast date and I arrived and were seated quickly even though the restaurant was packed. Everything on the menu looked delicious, and the friend I was with recommended several dishes to me. I settled on the Farmhouse Skillet, which came with eggs, bacon, avocado, and more. It was well-prepared and very tasty! Plus, there was a lot of food so we both left stuffed! I would say my biggest complaints were the "side of fruit" I received, and the price point. As you can see from the photo, the side of fruit is served in the same size cup they serve ketchup and jam in, so it's a VERY small portion. I had one grape, two pieces of pineapple, one piece of strawberry (1/4 of a berry), and four blueberries. Furthermore, the prices were pretty high for a breakfast joint! Maybe it's my own personal preference here, but I can get a pretty darn good egg dish elsewhere for less money. Overall, my first experience at First Watch was pleasant and positive! I don't know that it's a spot I can afford to come running back to, but might be a special treat when I have guests in town! read more

Great place to eat. My wife and I Love it and highly recommend first watch for your dining pleasure

My links were a bit burnt, but the eggs were perfect and the waffle was pretty good for take out.

Nice service, everything always comes out quickly. Food is consistently good and the juices are awesome. You can go for a quick meal or hangout and try more on the menu . read more

Second time here and we won't be back, food is tasteless. My melted cheese and roast beef sandwhich was cold. Home fries were bland, sausage was mushy, pancakes over cooked. The only good item was the cornbread. Service was good, sat outside which was nice. I should know better than to eat at a chain restaurant. read more

Great service once seated! We were on a waiting list but kept going back up to let the host know we were not receiving texts. After the third time he told us he already messaged us 5-10 minutes before, so we finally got seated but it took a lot longer than necessary, especially since we weren't getting any texts (even double confirmed it was the right number). When we finally did get seated, our waitress was extremely kind and attentive. We quickly placed our orders and got our food before 10 minutes was close to passing. It honestly felt so fast, but we appreciated it. I had the smoked salmon eggs Benedict and my friend had the BLT eggs Benedict. Both benedicts were good but we would have liked it on other bread, like an English muffin, instead of the dry ciabatta. Maybe if the ciabatta was toasted it may have been better. I absolutely loved the poached eggs and the salmon. Perfectly runny and super fresh, respectively. The seasoned potatoes were nice and crispy as well. I also ordered cranberry juice and it was extremely fresh and refreshing! This location is still pretty new so expect a little bit of a wait as it is popular for a reason! read more

Again. The second time I've ordered on the app to go and my order was missing requested items and the service at the desk was pure trash. I ordered my healthy turkey wrap and an avocado chop salad. My pico wasn't in the bag, the salad dressing for the salad was thrown in the bag, the lid fell off causing a mess, the server and hostess saw me struggling to find a napkin to clean up the mess and said nothing. Totally disappointed in the service. read more

First Watch - Million Dollar Bloody Mary - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Lauderhill, Florida

We go here every few months and I will say I'm a fan. The restaurant is always clean, staff are welcoming and helpful. Since it's pretty popular, we try to go early for a shorter wait time which doesn't always pa out when we are in a bigger group . I love, love , love that there are options for everyone on this menu. You can get something sweet, something wholesome, something healthy. Their juices are delicious and refreshing - my fave is the kale tonic. Food doesn't usually take long to come out. The coffee is decent, and they have some interesting cocktails if you opt to do a boozy brunch. I'm also a fan of their seasonal menu as it keeps things interesting. I'd recommend the French toast, the avocado toast, the lemon ricotta pancakes. They are only open til 2p however in the cooler months, I like to get a cup of their tomato bisque with a half a market veggie sandwich. read more

Another first for me and this shop just hits it out of the park and then some. It was a classic OMG from the second we walked in. We we greeted by multiple people and immediately brought to our table. Seconds later our LOVELY waitress Kami came over took our drink order and returned moments later with coffee and water. Kami is a superstar and definitely added to the overall great experience here. This shop is very big and bright. Lots of electricity in the air. Clean and very modern setting. This is a very comfortable place, clearly a family restaurant. The breakfast menu is long and extensive. Many healthy choices. I had a ham and gruyere omelette and my wife had one [very large] chocolate chip pancake. The food was outstanding. Eating this gave new meaning to the word "fresh." The omelette came with delicious home fries and one slice of multigrain bread. Everything was just so good. Helene loved the oversized pancake served with plenty (plenty) of whipped cream. This place is perfect and I highly recommend First Watch. We are certainly looking forward to our next visit here. KUDOs to the team at First Watch. read more

Always enjoyed this place but didn't have the best service today. We ordered the avocado toast with poached eggs and it was hard cooked. When we asked for them to do it over the waiter rolled his eyes and brought back another hard cooked egg. He never came back to see if we were ok. So that was it. My turkey burger was good. Food is over salted and potatoes were burned. I'll stick with the first watch at sawgrass. Disappointed. read more
