    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!

    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.

    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.

Eventually the get us seated in the main area. My wife ordered mashed potatoes and green beans as sides, and the mashed potatoes were cold. They took those back to fix, so we each tried some of her green beans. We both looked at each other in shock and said "These taste like fish!" Plus they were cold, so cold fish green beans. So when they brought out the warmed mashed potatoes we mentioned that, and they grabbed those to fix up, and asked us to check our steak. They were supposed to be medium, but were rare. So they took the steaks and my fries (the only thing edible so far). After 10 minutes the steaks were back, and looked good, along with a new order of the green beans, and we each got a replacement flame singed sliver of bread. So we taste the green beans, and now they taste like warm fish. So we got the manager again and I asked if they ever taste any of this stuff, and she didn't really know what to say. She said they'd take it off our bill, and we could have a free desert. Okay so back to the steaks, which were cooked right but too salty now. And that's when I realized they never brought back my fries. So we flag them down again, and eventually get the fries, which are good. The desert menu is a bunch of uninteresting goo, but we settle on something and get it to go. I pay the bill, tip 20%, and we get the heck out. Later we realize that they had accidentally added another steak entree to out order, then credited it off, just like the green beans and "free" desert, but their little machine calcutes the tip off the total before credits, so I actually payed a 50% tip. Unreal.

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.

Server was very friendly and pretty quick to acknowledge new arrivals, we got our drinks fairly quick too. Unfortunately they were awful. I'm gluten free so I was excited to try a seltzer flight and all of them were mostly if not completely flat and several were near tasteless. Others tried the beer and said most were barely tolerable. Didn't take the food too long to come to the table. I will say I was surprised by how decent it was. Nachos and hummus with veggies are my recommendations. If I were ever to go back, and I doubt I will, I'd try some other food items but not the adult beverages

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!

The cheese burgers were the special, so I opted for one of those with fries + the "my girlfriend isn't hungry" add of a couple chicken strips and some extra fries. The burger was perfect, but I've gotta say...for being a place called *Burg* and Barrel, their chicken strips are the best. They're juicy, the breading is fantastic, and they're always just really high quality. We came in while they were starting the trivia night deal, which I couldn't care less about, but if that's something you're a fan of...it's a thing here.

Saw lots of couples - maybe this a the local date night spot?? Popped in on a Saturday evening. No reservation needed. Started with the garlic bread and chicken samosas. Both were delish. The samosas were stuffed full of chicken. The green sauce was tasty too. Lots of seafood, chicken, beef and pork entrees. I was not familiar with some of the fish entrees. It's a big menu and almost all of it is in Spanish. So I went with what Genevieve our server recommended. The chicken breast with onions and peppers. It's sounds plain but it was full of flavor and served with black beans and rice. I substituted plantains for tostones. The tostones were meh. My dinner companion ordered the chimichurri steak. It also came with black beans, white rice and plantains. She said it was delicious. They also serve paella - which I really wanted to try but they entree is for 2 or more. Some of the fish items are kinda spendy. But the other meat items are in the $20 or less range. In addition to soda and lemonade, they serve margaritas and beer. I ordered a skinny margarita and it tasted watered down. So next time I'll ask for no ice. For dessert we tried the churros. Not bad. The service was great. I'll definitely come back to try some of the seafood entrees.

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!
