Avocado Toast
Paula C.

Our flight landed in Miami early in the morning, long before we could board our cruise, so we wandered out in search of a nearby spot for breakfast. This restaurant ended up being such a pleasant surprise. They welcomed us in--luggage and all--and even set aside a little area where we could store everything while still keeping it in sight. Our server was wonderful. She gave us great recommendations, and even as the restaurant filled up quickly and she was running around taking care of everyone, she continued checking in on us. It wasn't until the end, when she mentioned their warm, delicious donut holes (which I devoured before remembering to take a photo!), that I realized she was pregnant. She laughed about how hard it was for her to resist them, which made the whole moment even sweeter. We ended up sitting there for almost two hours--charging our phones, relaxing, and never once feeling rushed or like we were taking up space. The place was cute, cozy, and exactly the warm welcome we needed before starting our vacation.

The food here is really good. No matter what location you got to. I will say they have yellow grits at this location not the white one, so just be aware. This location has a pretty long wait time especially if you come during peak times. All and all I do recommend. Will be back since this is my closest First Watch.

We loved First Watch on 57th ave! It was our first time ever trying this brunch place and it did not disappoint. Parking on the weekend is kind of tough since everyone comes here to eat, and wait times on Sundays are usually long because the church is right next door. But aside for this the experience, staff and food was 10/10! I appreciated that you could join the waitlist online, so make sure to take advantage of that. We got their limited time million dollar bacon and wow it was SO good! I got the Trifecta and substitued the waffle for french toast. My boyfriend got the same with the pancake and it was massive. The drinks were also delish! I got their Lavander Haze and my boyfriend got their limited edition Mocha Mint coffe and it was WOW! Overall.m I definitely recommend trying this place out if you havent already and especially this location as the staff was super nice and the restaurant was clean as well!

Bacado® Omelet

This was disgusting. I first noticed the avocados were extremely brown so I was cutting through the omelette and then once I got to the end, I realized the omelette was extremely undercooked. At first I thought the egg white was cheese and then I realized it was just not cooked. Really disgusting like how do you let this come out like this.

I've been here a few times and it's always packed & the staff is super sweet and the food is surprisingly creative and consistently good! Think of it as a more elevated Denny's with laidback coastal California, farm-to-table vibes. Love their seasonal juices & french toast. Cute decor, great energy, and solid food every time. Definitely coming back!

Love my neighborhood First Watch, always get service with a smile (shoutout to Joanna on this particular visit). They have so many options to choose from whether you are looking for a healthy option or just want some really delish pancakes there's something on the menu for you. And let's not forget their seasonal items. If you are near the MIA area give them a try for breakfast or lunch

This is a very nice breakfast spot to visit People are friendly, the food is good Recently visited with my Grandkids and they loved it Would recommend this to anyone

Angels M.

Had an amazing breakfast experience this morning! New items on the menu to try however came back for my favorite - my morning meditation drink for starters! All the mixing in between and taking home pumpkin spice donuts for a snack later. The manager was walking around greeting everyone and asking about our time, food and service, which all was wonderful. Stop by and see Mr. Ebenson and his crew, they are working for your pleasure up in here!

This is for the location in the Blue Lagoon area. I first tried First Watch in St. Petersburg and was so impressed by it and had been longing to go again. So when I saw that there is one close to me l was super happy to go! Everything I have ever tried at FW has been phenomenal! I love that it's a healthy joint but has so much flavor and deliciousness that you feel soooo satisfied while eating there. The aesthetics of this place is cute, clean, modern and fun! The service was really nice and on point! Now for the food, we tried a blueberry and carrot pancakes. The blueberry was my favorite! I must be honest, I didn't feel there was enough carrot flavor in the carrot cake pancake but it was still good! But if I had to order pancakes again, l'd probably go for the blueberries or try a new flavor! The syrup was so warm and thick! I loved it!! The drinks are amazing! We've tried the Purple Haze, Morning meditation and the one with beats in it which the name escapes me right now... I wish they would stay open a little past 2:30 on the weekends!

Potato's and in the middle is a piece of hair
Jonathan L.

The food in this place is pretty good. The only down side of it was I found a hair in my breakfast that I could not enjoy that food and unfortunately had lost my appetite and sadly had to throw it away. It was sad because I have eaten here before a few time here and there but sadly did not get yo enjoy it this time.

Jhami B.

The wait is forever but the food is delicious. The pumpkin pancakes were my favorite.

Serve Bottomless Mimosas?

Nope! No alcohol! Just Brunch and Breakfast food.

Will you be having gluten free options?

First watch is actually pretty good about gluten free options. If you get an omelet, you get greens or potatoes, and there is gluten free toast as an option. You can't have the chickichanga, but I really enjoy the omelets with the side of greens.…

It's fun without feeling gimmicky, and the food holds up just as well. The smash burger is excellent, the wings are crispy and perfectly seasoned, and there's nothing wrong with washing it all down with an ice-cold beer. If you're there for weekend brunch, things get even more interesting. Grab a mimosa or sangria and, if you're feeling ambitious, take on the 17-inch monster breakfast burrito "Bases Loaded Burrito". Finish it in 20 minutes and your picture lands in their virtual Hall of Fame. I was smart enough not to try. For sports, this place is hard to beat. TVs are everywhere, and there's a huge outdoor watch-party setup. Big shoutout to Nacho behind the bar, Paul, the mastermind in the kitchen, and Roger for keeping the games covered. If it's game time and you're in Wynwood, Grails is the place.

The first time that I came here and the second time, the best quality, ingredients are good, flavor is good, and mixes and blends of flavors are amazing. What we had was the honey-glazed salmon bowl, which I had last time, and it just blew away. Also, as an appetizer, we ordered the pesto and burrata pizza, which was also just out of this world. I will definitely be coming back, and I drive probably around half an hour to 40 minutes from West Miami to come here. No problem. This is an amazing place. Thank you very much for having such a good location, Cafe Americano.

Everything I've had has been excellent, cooked properly, served at the right temperature, and the service usually starts off great. My one consistent pet peeve is that the service tends to drop off toward the end of the meal. Once the restaurant gets busy, it can feel like you're forgotten after the food is served. Getting someone to come back around for dessert, another drink, or even just the check can sometimes take much longer than it should. I've noticed this on more than one visit, particularly when the restaurant fills up. I also rarely see much of a manager presence on the floor. I think that makes a difference, especially during busy periods when the staff could use some extra support and guests are waiting for attention. Overall, I'm still a fan. The food is excellent and the experience starts strong. I just wish they could maintain that same level of service through the very end of the meal, especially when things get busy.

One thing I'd note for first-time visitors is that it seems easiest to order at the register, especially when things get busy and there's a lot going on. Great coffee, great food, and a place we'll continue coming back to whenever we're in Miami.
