I have been there a number of times and have never been disappointed. It's always nice, inviting & consistent.

The food was great. I had the elevated breakfast sandwich and my friend had a hash Bowl. They were both delicious. Our server was very attentive. I would I would recommend and I would go back. read more

As a breakfast and brunch spot, First Watch is exactly what you want. While not particularly exceptional, it is also very reliable and very good. The service has always been good, friendly and professional. I have never had a bad dish here and it is routinely a go to for meeting friends and colleagues for brunch. It's simply decorated, an open spacious Floorplan and clean. read more

First time we have been here in a while. No reason, food and service is always good. Today we both had the BLTE. Yes, that is a BLT with eggs on it. One of our favorites. Restaurant is always clean and our server was fantastic. The Manager we had a little conversation with, great sense of humor. Thanks for making our day start out on a positive experience. read more

So his place is so cute and super clean. Our waitress was friendly but the service is so slow! We ordered two half sandwiches and a salad and it took 30 mins to get it. And the place was not full when we got there or when we ordered. The food itself was a little shocking. While both the chopped chicken salad and the honey pecan salad were good. We half split a BLTE which was a huge pass. What place doesn't toast bread for a BLT(E)?!?! Just out here giving people raw bread. Also it was dry. Little to no mayo. And a slab of cheese. The sandwich was just weird. Tasted fine but weird. But also 30 mins for a raw sandwich?!?! Would I come back? Probably not. They have this place in Vegas and the reviews for wait time on getting food is even more ridiculous than my experience. It's a shame bc the food isn't bad. The service is just slow. read more

All First Watch locations deliver consistent quality, but I decided to finally leave a review on their seasonal item: shrimp and grits. I appreciated that it was not especially cheesy. Additionally, the shrimp was cooked perfectly and had a delicious deep seafood flavor (almost like crab boil.) The bell peppers and tomatoes added the perfect amount of acidity, and the sausages weren't too salty and overbearing. And the bread is perfectly toasted-- crispy yet still chewy. Overall a great dish! The drinks are also quite good at this location. I always get the cold brew, but their regular hot coffee is great as well. We also got asked to try the new watermelon drink and it was very good. I go to this location a lot, the service always rocks. Always quick, pleasant, and attentive. There is usually a wait because senior citizens mob this place. read more

First Watch - Shrimp & Grits - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

This is our favorite breakfast spot. The service can be a little slower when they're busy, but that's understandable. Having worked in a restaurant for three years myself, I know how difficult it can be to manage a packed dining room. The staff always does their best, and the food keeps us coming back. read more

Snuck in right before they closed for the day. Everything was quick and tasty. Can't wait to come back. read more

First Watch - Eggs Benedict - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

Got up early, craving Avocado Toast, so I came here after looking at the website. It was just as good and tasty as it looked online! Ian was my waiter and he was outstanding! I explained that I couldn't have anything citrus due to allergies and he was so kind and understanding! He checked on me and made sure I had everything I needed and my food was just how I liked it, plus gave me the BEST blackberry iced tea and even set me up with one to go when I was ready to go! SUPER service, and even for being as busy as the restaurant was, the ambiance was just right. It was not loud. It was very enjoyable! This was my second time dining here, this time by myself, and the first time was with my aunt and uncle when they were visiting in March from Los Angeles. They loved this place as well and thanked me for the suggestion and recommendation to meet me here for breakfast! I will definitely come back and try the lunch menu! read more

Just enjoyed lunch here. My first visit. Eclectic menu for Breakfast/Lunch. I enjoyed a Mexican meal with beef, eggs, salsa, black beans and Tostitos. All very fresh and beautifully presented. My friend had a yummy salad with bacon and pecans. Service was excellent. Looking forward to my next visit. read more

Mine and my husband's favorite brunch place. We eat here almost every week. The staff is always friendly and does a good job. The food always tastes fresh. My favorite go to is the tri-fecta with a waffle. The berry compost is sooo delicious!! Bacon is nice and thick but the chicken apple sausage is where it's at. My husband loves the oatmeal with the blueberry muffin. Pro tip order the muffin grilled it's amazing! read more

Just moved to the area and wanted to try something different for breakfast. The place is really cute, service was ok and food was good, not great, just good. There was a mix up with my grandsons breakfast but it got fixed. I was really wanting to love this place. I'll probably go back, just not very often. read more

Great brunch spot! The Eggs Benedict had a generous amount of hollandaise sauce and tasted great. Despite it being a busy Saturday, we only had to wait 15 minutes for a table. Service was prompt! Their rotating seasonal menu looked delicious, and they boasted about their juices, juiced daily. Inside was clean, lots of seating, and 5 or so individual bathrooms. Plenty of parking too! read more

I have been visiting a few different First Watch locations and this was a good one. The food is awesome and the location is clean. I got the special honey chicken breakfast bowl. I can't remember the legit name but it's awesome. So flavorful. I only dock a star because this is a pricey breakfast establishment. $40 for two meals with water and a tip. read more

Good place great food service is a little slow at times that's the reason for the four star review instead of five star I think at times this place gets too busy it is understaffed. I understand the difference between profit margin and customer service and I think they just need to add a few more people in my personal opinion. read more

Cameron, great waiter! Excellent breakfast. Big servings. Fun vibe. Good pricing. Highly recommend. read more

I've always enjoyed the breakfast menu at First Watch. Hadn't been in a while due to some health issues. Saw the Million Dollar Bacon Sandwich (MDBS) in an email introducing the fall menu and knew I HAD to try it! Went a week ago and LOVED it!! What's not to like?!? Million dollar bacon. Sausage patty. Jalapeños. Cheddar cheese. Apple bacon jam. All on a croissant round!! Plus it comes with a side of potatoes. I was in heaven!! Got some great news from my oncologist on Monday so I decided to celebrate by treating myself to a leisurely breakfast with another MDBS!! Lo and behold, turns out I had the same server from a week ago!! And speaking of heaven--come to find out that that is the name of my server! Heaven is so friendly and helpful. She gave some good tips on the menu, very engaging and professional, and quite attentive! Management needs to keep Heaven on the payroll--she's GREAT!! Definitely going back before the MDBS leaves at the end of the fall. Better yet, I'm thinking First Watch should just make it a menu staple!!! read more

These are two salads that we ordered to go. We like to order salads but when we order other Foods we get a decent quantity of ingredients and really would love to have some cheese read more

Last week I went to First Watch and I'm not sure how the cook did this but one eggs yoke was overcooked and hard the other egg had runny white. This week the bacon smelled rancid and the water glass smelled like it was washed in dirty water. The staff is obviously understaffed . I'm very disappointed this was my favorite breakfast spot . read more

We love First Watch!!!!! A perfect choice in so many ways! The food is excellent with consistently fresh ingredients. It is always clean, and the staff are very professional and friendly, too! read more

I've been for breakfast and lunch. My breakfast was cooked perfectly, everything was very well seasoned, scrambled eggs were fluffy, hash browns crispy, and so happy to have white meat options for sausage! The biscuits and gravy were amazing. Love the peppermint mocha. Service incredible and great atmosphere. read more

A nice breakfast spot, I had a delicious breakfast and a bloody Mary. My friend enjoyed his breakfast as well. It was a bit pricey at $50.

One word: EVAN Personable, friendly and pays attention to details. I was so impressed!! Food was amazing (ordered the shishito brisket) and went really well with the Pomegranate Sunrise. That might be my new favorite cocktail! read more

I stopped going to First Watch back in FL because of a disagreement with the seater greeter person who insisted I had to wear a mask until I was physically eating. It is quite amazing how people can rationalize that you won't spread Covid while eating around a bunch of other diners and somehow the mask will protect us while we're not eating with all those who are eating. Sorry I obviously still carry around baggage about that. Moving on... This is a new First Watch and I imagine it may be challenging for them to draw customers with all the construction going on. I decided to try them out after playing a round of disc golf. Food and service very good. I had the morning meditation juice. Yum yum! Then had the Tacos Al pastor hash. Again yum!! Love the menu and am glad I stopped in. Will come back with Jim. read more

Delicious food with perfect proportions. Friendly service. Relaxed, contemporary atmosphere. Easy to get on the waitlist through the website. LOVE THIS PLACE! read more

We have been wanting to try this place for a bit, but there was a line last time we stopped by. No line today, went around 10am on a Tuesday and got sat fast. Service was fine- quick and effective. Food was delicious, not too bad on prices. The potatoes add on was a great choice (Parmesan sauce with millionaire dollar bacon) Honestly loved the eggs Benedict ( I always put the hollandaise sauce on the side, just a preference) and the sauce was so good- lemony which was different and paired well with the vegs. The millionaire dollar bacon was good, would say 7.5/10. Definitely have to have a sweet/salty lover palette. Also loved how the environment wasn't too loud or crazy. A lot of places like to blast music which is fine, but we could actually have a conversation inside without raising our voices. Def want to try their juice bar next time and some of their alcoholic beverages. read more

Perfect timing for Brunch. We followed a group of police cadets around noon at Signal Butte. Wonderful experience first time. Great food helpful staff (shout out to "Heaven"!) Good prices. read more

Hubby's bacon and has browns were overcooked, bacon was burned. My pancakes were cold (not even room temp) and would not even melt the butter. I requested that my eggs be cooked over medium, however they had runny whites a parts of them were raw. Absolutely no check back from server after receiving food- on,y to bring our check. Never received drink refills or even asked if we wanted drink refills (I had water). There were 5 servers plus a manager huddled around one of the terminals for a long period of time. No manager checking tables to see how things were and is anyone needed anything. The server did ask if I wanted my eggs recooked to take home with me. No, I would have liked to have eaten those along with my HOT PANCAKES WHILE MY HUSBAND WAS ALSO EATING!!! read more

My server was amazing! I usually try the special and she recommended to change the egg to over medium instead of scrambled. It was amazing. The food was great, coffee nice and hot and my server Kaylee was exceptional. read more

Really like the ambiance. The waitress was friendly. The food looked good, waffle was good but...my eggs were overdone, coffee lukewarm and the turkey sausage was blech. I'm hoping this was a onetime episode. Will try again. read more
