Came to this location to have brunch with my sister and mom after a morning hike and very glad I did. It's been a couple years since my last visit. I had one of their virgin wellness cocktails, I can't remember the name but it was a seasonal Pineapple beverage and it was delicious. For my entree I ordered the Chickichanga, which was hearty and packed with flavor. We had a short wait which was nice for Sunday afternoon. The service staff was all very attentive, polite and professional. The vibe was very laid back even though the place was full, which I appreciated! I'll surely be back again. read more

Terrible unless you're a squirrel everything is so grainy it's like it's not even cooked and if you say anything, it's another attitude from some hipster that thinks they know how to cook read more

The food and service were good. Four of us had four different entrées and we all enjoyed what we ordered. It's a little noisy. I would go again though. read more

Chicken pesto bowl is my favorite. The staff is friendly and helpful. Bathrooms are clean.

The food was amazing!!! I had the maple bacon croissant sandwich. You should try it too!

Arrived for breakfast and were seated for lunch. The wait was too much. Listening to the greeter, it seemed like every party that checked in were given a different wait time. We ended up having to wait over 75 minutes. Food was average and portions are too small. Plus, who wants a salad with no dressing with your eggs Benedict? It's a weird combo anyways. read more

Amazing atmosphere and great food, it never disappoints when we go to any location. Double bacon parmesan hash was my favorite dish.

Food was good. The place is very popular so it was crowded and loud. Hard to carry on a conversation.

AMAZING!!!! can't wait to go back. We shared Strawberry tres leche French toast (natural sweet not over the top sweet), Million Dollar Bacon and Million Dollar Potato's I am getting the same thing next time! It's was so so so good!!! We sat at the bar and service was great! Restaurant is super cute inside, lots of indoor seating while you're waiting for table! My pictures didn't turn out but will for next time read more

First Watch is a newer location in this area, and I am truly in love with both the sleek seating and the tasty food from the regular menu and the seasonal menu! They have great brunch beverages, fresh juices, and great fresh ingredients for the dishes. I've easily visited over 30 times, and only had one time where I had an issue with the food. Definitely try to visit this location a few times a month on weekends, and the staff is starting to recognize not just me but also my dad. Always nice to feel welcome and can always count on great coffee, food and company! read more

Food is pretty good. Weekday breakfast cook needs some cooking lessons. They don't seem to know the difference between fried and over easy or sunny side up as well as the grits being cooked at too runny. They were so liquidy and when they got to me read more

The food and service was good. Are outside and it was a great day for that. The salmon benedict was good, I think pickled onion would elevate it instead of the raw onions. The wife enjoyed the french toast. First Watch is a solid breakfast choice read more

Food is excellent and the wait staff friendly and attentive. Call a head for reservations during peak hours.

Hands down worst dining experience of my life and we have not even gotten the food yet. We were officially three hours in from when we checked in and we still did not have our food. There was a table they needed to clear for us to sit. It took 30 minutes to do so. The hostess staff just looked at the table every few minutes and did nothing. I could clearly tell this staff didall work as a team . I hope this location gets their act together . read more

Great food, great service and good batch cocktails! I had the BLT Benny and loved how fresh the fruit was with it. You don't always get that!! read more

Food was very good did not care for the taste of the bacon... But the nose rings everywhere to me are absolutely unappetizing!

Amazing food, atmosphere, and staff! Ian was the best! He kept checking on us and was on top of what we needed. He is super friendly and I will come back for just to have him as our waiter again! Food was cooked to perfection and absolutely delicious! We ordered the French toast, Frittata Rustica with million dollar potatoes and I can't stop raving about it! Thr Honey crunch iced coffee was icing on the cake! Will most definitely come back! read more

Absolutely love First Watch and so excited to have one closer to the house now! This location is beautiful and new with a nice outdoor patio as well.

First Watch - Ultimate Egg Sandwich - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

I love this place as our neighborhood go to breakfast place. Their food is always on point and service is also great. I wouldn't say they have one special item that's a must get but most their stuff is really good. Eggs Benedict is great as is the biscuits and gravy which are both my go to's. If you have a gluten allergy they have plenty of options even with their French toast. The only gripe I have is I wish they had an option on their doordash order to put a spot for gluten free on the French toast. They don't have a button for that. But if you call in right after you put your order and tell them they'll make it gluten free. read more

This is our go to breakfast spot. The food is always good and the service is exceptional. The staff always makes us feel welcome. I gave it 5 stars because I couldn't give them 10 stars. read more

Tried first watch for the second time ever and I ordered the traditional breakfast. Two eggs, breakfast potatoes, toast, and the chicken applewood smoked sausage patties. Overall for the price I enjoyed the meal. I also ordered a side of the cheesy grits which I'm a huge fan of And the multi grain banana almond nut crunch pancake which was amazing. I definitely would recommend giving this breakfast restaurant an opportunity. It may not be as traditional as a lot of the mom and pop shops but it's still very very good. I always leave my reviews based on my own opinions and always feel that if something looks good or sounds good you should try it. This place will not disappoint. read more

Bloody Mary's are a breakfast staple on weekends. Only pre made batch of mix and bar can't make a spicy. Was told to use the cholula on the table. So bar can't really bartend and you have to kinda make your own drink for full price? Hmm. What's next self check out at the grocery store? Oh wait.... Food came. Eggs a little cold / rubbery. Chilaquiles meh. First world problems I guess. read more

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

So we just left First Watch in Mesa. Decided to try this place on a recommendation from my Aunt who frequents the Sun City location and I've been wanting to try for sometime. This location looks fairly new. We were seated immediately upon arrival. We were initially greeted by a server Gabby. Then we got our server and honestly cannot remember her name. I ordered the 2 for You with 1/2 Havarati Roast beef sandwich and 1/1 Honey Pecan Chicken Salad. On the sandwich, it's served with a side of horseradish sauce that really makes this sandwich. Both were very tasty. My husband ordered the Trifecta with over medium and Bacon and Waffle. He said all was very good. He also ordered a Bloody Mary that is served with a piece of soaked bacon soaked in Vodka which he said was really good. All in all a very nice visit and good food. PLUS my husband scores big on one of their table wares. That just made his day. So thank you for good food and great service. I would have taken pics but by the time I thought of it the food was all but gone!!!! We will be back. read more

My husband and I went to First Watch for breakfast today. I have to say they don't disappoint. They did have a full house, but they usually do. The service was amazing. Our server was so nice and very knowledgeable about the menu. I have never been disappointed with their food and today was no exception. I always try to get something different. Today I had the strawberry tres leches pancakes. OMG, they were amazing. I am one of a rare breed who does not like strawberries. Yes you heard me correctly, I do not like strawberries, so they did not put them on. That restaurant is always clean and it is pure ambiance. If you have never been there, drop what your doing and get over there. read more

Food is always good however the online app lets you cut in front of people already at the location waiting. Could use some improvement

Food was good, realized everything was super healthy style of food. Which is fine I just didn't know. The burrito was seasonal so we had to get it before it left the menu. Service was quick, we needed to make an online reservation because there is always a decent line when we pass by. The decor and feeling of this place was nice, this location hasn't been open too long. But it definitely gets lots of business. Good little healthy hearty breakfast place. read more

First Watch - The seasonal Steak burrito and a chorizo egg omelet. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

We came in today on a drizzly Monday Morning. Brooklyn greeted and sat us right away. The coffee was piping hot with nice flavored creamers on the table. We asked Brooklyn for some suggestions as it was our first time coming in. We took both of her suggestions and ordered the breakfast tacos and chorizo omelette. Brooklyn's selections did NOT disappoint!! No pictures to share as we consumed our food ravenously. Service was exceptional (Thanks Brooklyn) food was good. We shall return!! read more

Took my mom today to First Watch for Christmas Eve brunch. It was fairly busy but a short wait time. Unfortunately we were put in the corner right next to the bathroom. Honestly, I feel like it's bad placement for a table at any restaurant. Otherwise the food was delicious, service was good. We had a really nice waiter but there was shift change and he left so we had to wait a while for our food. Overall I would still recommend. read more

The food here is pretty good. The million dollar potatoes are probably my favorite. The wait staff have been nice every time I have gone in.
