A bright, airy spot.
Michael S.

If you're familiar with the First Watch chain you know it's a popular, airy, and comfortable breakfast and lunch spot that's usually busy on weekends. We got in for Saturday breakfast before the crowd arrived. We had terrific service. Orders came up quickly.

Water glass with the silverware wrap  "I love you more than bacon." Cute!
Elle R.

Just meh! We got a table right away on a Sunday morning around 7:20. Service was quick. Wasted quite a bit of money on our overall experience. The featured coffee was disgusting. My teen said it tasted like BBQ sauce and my wife agreed. I couldn't really put my finger on it but it was a huge waste, server didn't even notice that we practically left it untouched. Breakfast sandwich and biscuits and gravy weren't anything to rave about, I actually make a better breakfast sandwich at home. My teenager liked the trifecta and the holey donuts. We haven't been to any of the Firstwatch locations in quite some time and I feel like this visit reminded me why, it just isn't anything special; especially for the amount of money we spent.

Pecan caramel cinnamon roll

First Watch has done a great job with this location. While the parking isn't the most ideal, there's plenty of you expand your search to the East of the building. While my family isn't the biggest of constant mask users, it was nice seeing an entire staff wearing a mask still during all of this. It's the first place we've been to in a while with everyone on board with masks. Onto the food. Delicious. We tried some of their seasonal dishes with the cinnamon chip pancakes, their million dollar sandwich, and the pecan cinnamon caramel roll. I will say that all 3 hit the spot. I had the sandwich, and they said it has a bit of a kick, but for me it was pretty tame. Great flavor though. The pancake and roll, very sweet and delicious. Small hiccup in getting my beverage to me, but came out eventually and was also good. Pictured is the dynamite pecan caramel cinnamon roll

Million Dollar Bloody Mary. It's ok, it was kinda sweet in my opinion.
Emily C.

Only my second time at First Watch, but this location is very nice and the staff has been very friendly and great experiences. I meant to order a side of biscuits & gravy this time but forgot. Next time. I ordered salmon & veggie frittata, much larger than I expected. All good things, I can always use more aioli on the side for anything. Potatoes are so good here. Bloody Mary was ok, I'll try a mimosa next time.

the front of a restaurant

Not Elizabeth putting HER HAND in my face when I walked in & asked her how long the wait was and with an attitude said "Um you need to wait".... To find out the wait. So we did.. she told us that it was 30 min wait and then walked away. I had to stop her and say "So can we be put on the waiting list?" She started talking to someone else & then told me I could AFTER she finished with someone that just walked in. Wouldn't know how great the food could be because we walked out at went to BB's grill 2 miles away.. & would you look at that! No wait & No attitude, & cute girls! Maybe train your people in the front of the house for customer service.. because this was rude & poor.

Eggs Benedict
Cynthia M.

Enjoyed a mid week brunch at First Watch! We were seated and greeted quickly by our server. The menu is large and had the option of breakfast or lunch. I loved the Eggs Benedict - everything came out quickly and yummy!

Nice restaurant, accommodated our group of 15. In town for our family reunion. It was a 30 minute wait to be seated so check ahead. Food was tasty. Egg salmon fritata with potatoes and bread. Would return if in town...lots to choose from​

Two dishes in, both winners. The ancho woodfired chicken salad -- charred corn, black beans,…read morecotija, crisp tortilla strips, chipotle-honey vinaigrette -- had the right balance of smoky, sweet, and crunchy, and the chicken itself was cooked perfectly. The other standout was the raspberry coconut chicken: crispy coconut-breaded tenders draped in a raspberry coulis with toasted almonds on top, sitting over a creamy slaw. Sweet and savory done right, though heads up if you're dairy-sensitive -- that slaw is loaded. Portions are generous, flavors are bold without being over the top, and everything tasted made-to-order rather than assembly-line. Will definitely be back to work through the rest of the menu. Also, the service was outstanding and it was a really clean ambience so if you've never been here.

We didn't recognize a single member of the staff except one veteran bartender (who swore she'd never work another Burger Monday). We were seated promptly but that's when things went off the rails. We ceased to exist except for one server who kept pointing us out to other servers as if he was asking, "Is that your table? Those two have been sitting there a really long time". Patrons around us who were seated after us had drinks and placed orders but no one spoke to us. Nobody even came close enough for me to say, "Hey! We're ready to order! Who's our server?" Anyway, after ten or fifteen minutes of being ignored, we got up and left. The host, who had seated us, started to say, "Thanks for coming in!" but I stopped him and let him know we hadn't been waited on. We drove down the street to Burg and Barrel and had a great lunch with wonderful service!

LOWS: - I asked an employee for some water and I got "I'm not your server," and walked away in response, didn't love that - I obviously don't know the full story behind it but writing on your menu that you are incapable of cutting a burger or sandwich in half is pretty absurd. Along with not even having knives for us to do it ourselves - Could probably invest in some blinds, the glare inside was crazy Overall a fine meal, obviously a lot going on but mostly not on the good side. The actual meal saved the day because if it weren't for that I probably would've been more critical.

Our eyes immediately went to the shake menu, and our server was nice enough to let us split a cinnamon roll shake, serving it up in two separate glasses for us. For food, my buddy got the tenderloin sandwich. It wasn't one of those cartoonishly dinosaur-sized portions you see at some places, but he said it was really tasty and well worth it. I ordered the mushroom Swiss burger with garlic aioli, and it hit the spot. The burger was tender and juicy, the mushrooms were perfectly seasoned, and the bun was toasted (always a nice bonus). Even the fries were perfectly crispy. All in all, I was very pleased with the meal. I'll definitely be back to try some of the other items on the menu!

Welp, sure enough, the rumors are TRUE! Right off the main strip in town is a decent-sized lot that this truck has taken residence on, replete with tables and seating, about 10 parking places, and trash receptacles. We stopped in on an unseasonably warm, late December evening, and tried a few different types of dishes: steak hibachi, shrimp lo mein, sushi, chicken hibachi, and lots of yum yum sauce! I was (mostly) responsible for the sushi roll. Normally, I'm a 2, maybe 3 roll per sitting kinda guy. For whatever reason, on this evening, I decided to start with one...and thank goodness I did, as the roll was enormous! Like, the volume of at LEAST two rolls at any other place! Delicious, well-made, and extremely filling! In my ratings, I'd give the lo mein second place - it was fantastic, and included lots and lots of shrimp, which thrilled my son! He woofed it down, fast! The ladies in our party each got hibachi, and both loved it! The Yum yum sauce came in handy for their meat, veggies and rice. As we ate under the stars, we saw about a dozen folks swing in for take out, meaning we were definitely behind the eight ball in finding this gem out on the prairie! The gentleman running the window was kind and helpful with our order, and they had our food prepared in about 20 minutes! Not bad, considering the busy Friday night they were having!
