This place is like my go to when I can't determine what I want to eat. The variety of healthy yet still tasty options, quick service, large portions and decent pricing makes it a no brainer. Ask for Bryan if you want smooth service with a smile. He also has great recommendations. I typically sit inside because the heat in Miami can be a lot but you have the option to sit indoors or outside. The outside views are not the greatest. read more

On our last day of vacation, we decided to stop by First Watch for breakfast. We've visited their locations in New Jersey and South Carolina before, but this was our first time at this specific spot. Knowing they tend to stay busy, we put ourselves on the digital waitlist before arriving; although the estimated wait was 20 minutes, we were pleasantly surprised to be seated within five minutes of getting there. The restaurant has a bright, modern, and inviting atmosphere that makes it a perfect place for a relaxed family meal. We started by ordering the Million Dollar Bacon for the table, which was a hit as always. For our main meals, I had the Chimichurri Steak Hash, my wife went with the Farmhouse Hash, my sister-in-law chose the Elevated Egg Sandwich, and my father-in-law ordered the Traditional Breakfast. Everything tasted great and maintained the high standard we expect from this brand. My father-in-law especially enjoyed his meal--he devoured the entire plate and looked like he could have gone back for seconds! It was a perfect way to wrap up our trip. read more

First Watch - Miami Gardens delivers exactly what you want in a breakfast spot. First off, let's give credit where it's due: they carry Coke products. That's already a win in my book. Pair that with a cold glass of fresh orange juice that hits just right, and you're off to a solid start. I came in for the Million Dollar Bacon--because, let's be honest, how could you not? Perfectly sweet, smoky, and worth the hype. Rounded it out with the Eggs Benedict (potatoes on the side, because why not live a little), and everything came out hot, fresh, and on point. The service matched the food--friendly, attentive, and smooth from start to finish. You can tell the team here actually cares about getting things right. Ambiance is First Watch. It's like a kitchen table--life itself. If you're in Miami Gardens and need a proper breakfast or brunch spot, this location of First Watch deserves the stop. read more

These lemon ricotta pancakes are worth talking about! So fluffy and huge portions. The lemon curd topping that they put on the pancake was a nice blend of citrus and sweet and I would recommend to anyone. Pro-tip, there is always a wait so use the Get In Line option online or in their app. read more

First Watch - Lemon ricotta pancake and million dollar bacon - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - North Miami Beach, Florida

One of my all-time fave breakfast/brunch spots. Came here earlier today with a friend and they did not disappoint! Food: 10/10 Everything was so tasty and they came out fresh and hot. I had the smoked salmon frittata and the new summer strawberry tres leches french toast! That french toast is to die for. You should definitely try it. Service: 10/10 Our server was amazing. Super quick, efficient, attentive and even recommended food we should try. Glad to say he was right about the food! He checked on us multiple times throughout the experience and I loved it. Drinks: 9/10 I tried the spiked watermelon wake up. It was part of their summer menu. Soooo good. They make all of their juices fresh with premium fruit everyday. Decor & Ambiance: 7/10 It's your typical cafe/brunch spot. The artwork they have is pretty cute and colorful. However, they don't have decor like a moody restaurant or over the top aesthetic restaurant would, and that's ok! It's still warm, cozy, inviting and super clean. Overall, I love First Watch and I've been coming here for a few years now. They always exceed expectations and I love their food. Definitely coming back soon. read more

I was hoping this was better than the one I seat with Another Broken Egg but it didn't come close, I enjoyed the shrimp. I disliked adding seasoning after a food is cooked but I had too. One of the main reasons for the 3 star rating is the customer service. I had everyone of them walk past me or look at there phone when I approached them. It was dissatisfying . read more

I enjoyed their chicken avocado salad. You can pick any of their salad half sized if you also get their soup. Soup of the day was vegetable soup. It was chunky and flavorful. Last time, I went for the tomato soup but it was too thick to my liking. The roast beef sandwich was decent, though! My kid couldn't finish his roast beef and havarti sandwich, but wanted pancake instead. That fluffy item appeared in pretty shorter time than expected and the kid finished that without stress. The sun dried/roasted tomatoes kept dripping out of the sandwich -- I took a bite of one of them, no shame lol. My sis and mom shared a plated of potatoes and some kind of egg omelet. This is my mom and sister's fave location. The parking lot is kind of confusing, but you can park with ease. It's also next to the Starbucks and in the shopping plaza shared with Publix and TJ Maxx. The atmosphere of this place was as expected -- not quiet and definitely crowded. You can enjoy some cocktails here but it's also very family family. John took care of us. The service was fast and pleasant. read more

Best brunch I've ever had. I usually stay away from breakfast places because I'm really picky about my eggs and they usually come out greasy. Not here though! I ordered the Brooklyn breakfast sandwich which came with 2 eggs on top of a pile of pastrami, arugula, pickled red onion on a beautiful artisan roll. Service was top notch and all the servers were full of excitement. Absolutely great service with awesome recommendations. The place was electric and there was a great mix of people. The place was busy which always makes me happy because that means the food is coming out hot and fresh. Place was clean inside and outside. I was seated right away which I couldn't believe because it was so packed. Perfect place for the perfect meal! read more

So we were looking for a breakfast place that wasn't IHOP and Yelp pointed us here. We were blown away by this place. One of the very best places we've been to in a while. Where even to start? So, the food was fabulous. I had the BLT Eggs Benedict and the wife had the breakfast tacos. Both were amazing. The eggs bene were very delicately poached, with lovely runny yolks. The bacon was perfectly crisp, without being the slightest bit over-cooked. I chose the fruit option, which went with it perfectly, providing a nice fresh palate cleanser. The tacos shells were nice and crisp and the filling was perfectly portioned. She asked for and received some of the house-made sour cream, which was delightful. We finished off with about half the order of cheesecake donut holes (we asked but could not confirm that, like the eggs, they are free range and ethically sourced). The ambiance was very pleasant and everyone was really nice. Our server, G, was and absolute delight and one of the very best I've had in recent memory. Prices were very reasonable and portions were perfect, maybe even on the heavy side. Definitely won't be our last trip there. read more

Phenomenal waffles! Fresh fruit and whipped cream. Hot syrup. Attentive staff. Lovely experience. Try those waffles!

Was in the mood for a really good breakfast/ brunch decided to head over to First Watch for the perfect meal. Food: 10000/10 Loved every aspect of my meal. They added Tres Leche French Toast to their Summer Menu, and when I tell the it was the most satisfying plate of French toast I have EVER had. It had the right amount of sweetness without being too overly sweet, fresh strawberries, whipped cream, all the works! I also had the breakfast tacos which were great as well, a nice savory breakfast that was very filling. Drinks: 10/10 We went for the Spiked Watermelon Drink, and it was amazing. Very refreshing, great drink to have with the meal. Service: 10/10 We were seated immediately although they were a bit busy which I loved, the wait time for our meal was short which I can appreciate given how busy they are around brunch time. Our waiter was amazing. He was super attentive and ensured we were taken care of during our stay. Ambiance/ Decor: 10/10 Loved the decor on the inside, they had nice paintings hung throughout the place which I liked. I'd compare the decor to an "modern day dinner" . Overall, this is such a great spot to have breakfast or brunch by yourself or even with friends and family. The menu has a plethora of dishes to choose from that I'm sure anyone will find something they love! Will definitely be returning. read more

This was my first time and I'll be back. From the moment I walked in I was welcomed and sat immediately. Brian was our server and was nothing short of amazing! Great service very attentive. Had the works omelette. It was made just how I like it, not dry and stuffed with meats. The potatoes were a little overcooked to my liking, but Brian made sure to get me a fresh batch cooked to my liking! I also tried the 2 eggs with Belgian waffle. The waffle tasted light. The blueberry compote was delicious. Hot, fresh syrup given one the die The iced coffee also was surprisingly good. The restaurant was very clean. Many food options to choose from for whatever mood you are in. It's in a plaza so plenty of parking. read more

This was our first time at our restaurant. Our server was not pleasant and did not pay attention or asked if we were okay. We received our food quite fast but it came cold. We proceeded to eating and then we found a few errors. Chocolate chips in our omelette sandwich, hair on the potatoes and uncooked sausages. Our service sucks but after speaking with the manager, we were able to smooth things over. We will give it a try again. Not everyday everyone has a great day. read more

Terrible Experience: Overcharged and No Accountability I had a very disappointing experience at First Watch Restaurant in Miami Gardens. I visited the restaurant with my family and, when finished, tried to pay using the QR code in the check with Apple Pay. I tried twice, but the payment didn't go through, so I went to the cashier and paid there. After I left, some hours later I received an alert on my bank account about the charge and saw that I was charged three times for the same order due to a glitch on their end. When I went personally to the restaurant to resolve the issue, they refused to reimburse me, claiming that their website caused the error and was "out of their hands." This is completely unacceptable. A business should take responsibility for issues caused by its systems, not pass the blame onto the customer. After multiple attempts to resolve it, I was left frustrated and out of pocket for charges I never authorized. To make matters worse, the staff was unhelpful and dismissive when I tried to explain the situation; they even told me that this was a common situation with clients paying by phone. I wonder how many clients have paid their checks more than once because they didn't check their accounts. The food was okay but not good enough to justify this kind of hassle. Save yourself the trouble and take your business elsewhere--a place that values its customers and takes responsibility for its mistakes. If you go, make sure not to pay through your phone. read more

Terrible pictures of the most delicious breakfast. Why y'all ain't tell me about First Watch? I simply was never hip. I tried the Elevated Egg sandwich: over-easy egg, bacon, Gruyère cheese, avocado, Mayo, and arugula dressed with lemon. So freaking good, I've tried to recreate it since. The "Morning Meditation" includes freshly juices orange, lemon, turmeric, ginger, agave nectar, and beet! I kid you not, I took one sip and had to take a deep sigh. That's how good it was! read more
