Lemon Ricotta Pancakes
Sam H.

All amazing as usual. Absolutely love this location too. Typically great service. Love that you can check in for the waitlist online before. Tacos were out of this world. Pancakes were perfectly cinnamony and I can be picky about that lol. Loved the pickled onions on the tacos. Holey donuts were crunch but soft on the inside

Sourdough "toast"
Eileen D.

Breakfast out is one of my all-time favorite things and while Saturday mornings aren't always the best time to try for it, it worked out for us this past weekend. Nine a.m. and there was no wait at the location across from Legacy. Folks were incredibly friendly and welcoming. We both ordered variations on the bacon and eggs standard -- one with a waffle, one with a pancake, and a side of toast for dipping. Our server asked how we liked our bacon -- what a welcome question! I've never been asked such a thing. My partner said crispy, and I said, not crispy -- but cooked, not raw please. To me, crispy means crunchy, breakable. I like a little flex, but without fat that you still can see through. Does that make sense? Her crunchy looked perfect to me, my not crispyy/not raw was not quite. I need better vocabulary for describing what I'd like. Perhaps crispy is it? Eggs were perfect. Sourdough toast was perhaps passed momentarily over a flame, but not toasted. The strawberry jelly was tasty. The pancake was huge and the warm syrup, a delight. The waffle, very nice and the warm fruit compote very yummy. The coffee also was very nice. Overall, maybe on par or a step above Village Inn -- except for the people. They were rock stars!

Carne asada hash
Jess N.

Service was very nice, quick, and helpful when it came to decision making! The pancake my partner got was huge and amazing, but I believe it was a banana granola crunch. The biscuits and gravy didn't really come out hot, only disappointment. The carne asada hash was pretty good, but there wasn't much carne in my opinion.. more potatoes! Overall everything was good!

Chicken pesto power bowl
Christine S.

Fantastic spot with tons of options and great service. Something for everyone! The ingredients are always fresh and the n season! We will definitely be back!

Gingerbread donut holes
Terry O.

We had breakfast at this location for the first time. Since other First Watch locations are always good, we thought this would be as well, and it was. I ordered my usual Frittata Rustica and it was delicious as expected. The big pile of greens is usually dressed but these were plain, which I actually didn't mind. The toast was still warm since the order came out so quickly. Bookguy ordered items from the chalkboard-- gingerbread donut holes and a steak and bacon breakfast burrito. The serving of donut holes was generous and the dipping sauces added to the flavor. We gobbled them up. Bookguy was not as happy with his burrito because he couldn't taste any steak. It was a generous portion too, so he left some behind. It had good flavor and he enjoyed it, but missed the steak. The coffee today was better than usual, so maybe they changed the brand. Bookguy ordered the citrus hibiscus punch, but he didn't like the dried fruit slice garnish or the sugar-rim on the glass. The drink was very sweet, which suited him. Of course, we'll continue to eat at First Watch.

Great quick and easy brunch place! Was in town for a quick weekend and was in the area when I yelped a nearby breakfast/brunch place and came upon this pretty quickly. Easy parking, no wait even on a Sunday at 10:45am. Super great attentive but not annoying service. We sat on the patio on a hot morning and loved it. Delicious breakfast omelette and eggs benedict. The omelette comes with a great portion, fresh greens and tasty bread. Also ordered a side of bacon - always a good idea. They have a huge menu with everything that you could want or be craving. I opted for an iced coffee in the summer heat and absolutely loved it. Refreshing and great flavor. I've seen these chains around and will be back soon I'm sure.

French Toast
Jackie R.

This place reminds me of the Pacific Northwest. Fresh, seasonal farm to table. They're a healthier food option for those looking for a light or refreshing breakfast. My first time going to one was in Louisville, KY and second time at this location. Actually came here because of the Louisville location, I enjoyed it so much. I got the breakfast tacos - so much flavor and so good! Pretty filling too! My son got the French toast - he gobbled it up so fast that I can only assume it was good lol. Fiancé got the pancake breakfast. Stop in if you need a break from grease, fat and fried but don't want to give up flavor! Although I'm not one to turn away from those three options either lol! Service is always great, and you can go through Yelp and get on their waitlist early.

DaughterPoo and I stopped at Saddle Creek for a late breakfast (11am). It was packed, but a table…read moreopened up quickly (I'm not sure moaning "hunger, hunger!" had anything to do with it but hey, whatever works). DP ordered Lemon Berry Pancakes, a plate-filing short stack of goodness. I'd like to say it tasted as good as it looked, but I couldn't tell as DP chowed down like a hound from hell. In a good way, of course. She did allow me to share her Maple Braised Bacon (meaning that I was able to snatch a piece while she wasn't looking). Really, really fine, something I'd definitely order again. For me. Not to share. I had the Schnitzel Bennie with tart cherry jam and lemon hollandaise. Sound unusual? Tasted great! My only gripe was that the pork cutlet was a bit small and could have used a bit more seasoning in the breading. Would I order it again? You betcha! Service was fast and efficient. The decor was quirky and inviting but the space was loud enough that it was really hard to carry a conversation. Overall rating: yahoo!

We said first available seats, which ended up being at the end of the bar. More about that later... I ordered the vegan standard and hubs ordered the banana bread French toast. The server was friendly and the food came out in a timely manner, considering the place was packed. Regarding the vegan standard, it seems they have cut back on the amount of tofu scramble and increased the amount of hashbrowns, which was a little bit disappointing. As usual it was very tasty though! I tried a bite of the hubs French toast and it was VERY unique and tasty! II will be getting that next time. I was disappointed to hear that they haven't brought back the vegan biscuits and gravy, but maybe once again they will! So the food was great but our experience, not so much, based on where we were sitting. I feel like they should not even use the last spot at the bar to seat a patron. Right next to where I was sitting is the place they bring the clean silverware to dry it off, then they would toss it into the silverware holder. The noise was very annoying and they did nothing to try to even be quiet about it. The other thing about that location is the register is pretty much right in your face, like 15 inches directly in front of me and someone was pretty much there the whole time. Other areas of the bar wouldn't be quite so bad, but next time we will wait longer to get a table or sit at the bar top that looks outside instead of at all the workers doing their thing and talking to each other. Other than the location of where we sat this visit, this is still one of our top spots for a yummy vegan breakfast, and we will be back!

The service was excellent and our server was attentive. Went there for their fried chicken which was highly recommended but was not a fan. The chicken is under seasoned and dry. Even with the dipping sauce it needed more flavor. Didn't even take a picture because it wasn't that good looking either. It was underwhelming to say the least. However, the biscuits were DELICIOUS. Crisp and amazing with butter and jam. We ordered the fried green tomatoes as well which were tasty and crunchy, they came with tasty goat cheese and some sauce, while I do wish there was a bit more sauce it was still a great choice. The Mimosa flight was good but it wasn't anything special, I do wish for the cost that there was a bit more going on or even bigger portions. Overall good place to go with a good variety of options.

The other members of our party also loved their meals. I can't wait to come back and try more!

She listed off all the daily specials and I'm so glad she did because the Croque Miss was a GREAT breakfast sandwich! The coffee and chai were some of the best I have had in a long time! The vanilla latte was made iced with oat milk and it was just sweet enough, something about the espresso beans just made it all blend together so well!! The chai was house made and it was SO great, like Christmas in a mug, just phenomenal. The food is different from other breakfast spots around Omaha. The croque miss was the breakfast sandwich special and it blew all other sandwiches out of the water. Thick bread, Dijon mustard, ham, and topped with 2 eggs! WOWOWOWOWOOWOW!! It was so complex and the flavors blended so well together! The only thing I wish there was more of was ham, just one more slice would have been great! The brioche French toast was thick, fluffy, and sweet. I loved the cranberries on top, another dish with great complementing flavors. The space itself is inside the Film Streams, it can seem funny walking into a theater and not going to see a movie but wow is it worth it! There are floor to ceiling windows to let in the beautiful natural light, plants all over and you can get your coffee to go here if you'd like! Lola's is definitely my new go to breakfast spot!

I wrote this on my Facebook about my experience while traveling from California:…read more Today I was at a super cute café and ordered breakfast. After a couple of minutes, I went back up to the counter and asked if they had already started making it, because I wanted to change my order. The kitchen was open, so I said to the cook, "Don't worry about it if you've already started. I know my indecision can impact people, and I don't want to be a problem." He looked at me and said, "No, it's totally fine. Would you like some veggies on the side?" "Yes, that would be amazing," I said, and walked back to my table... and burst into tears. It wasn't just what he said. It was the kind energy in his eyes. I felt someone who took pride in what he was making, and who genuinely wanted people to be happy. I found myself asking, why am I crying? Because in a world where so many people in power feel disconnected, where corporations can make us feel like numbers, being genuinely cared for in a small café reminded me how much I love humans. Most people have love in their hearts and are trying to share it in their own small ways. As the world cracks, these simple things are more meaningful than ever.

Had a pretty fantastic experience here for Saturday brunch recently. They do require reservations…read morein advance, which puts a $40 hold on your card. They were fairly busy, and honestly our food took a bit to come out, but I am still giving a five due to the overall experience and quality of service. Our server Melannie was fantastic and always present. We did the bottomless mimosa deal (3 out of 4 of us) and she was always coming around asking us what flavor we wanted next when our current was still half full to make sure we got our moneys worth. The champagne might not be the fanciest, but for $20 bottomless mimosas I'll take it. They have fun flavors in addition to the basic ones like strawberry, mango, etc. which adds an element of fun. For food--there were several things I was eyeballing but landed on the spicy chorizo Benny. It was really good, eggs cooked perfect, and came with hashbrowns. Another at our table got the poutine which also looked yummy. I'd say the food portion could have included a bread/toast option, however If brunching in Omaha i'd return to try several things on the menu. The vibe inside is chill, would be more fun sitting outside once the weather warms up. Since I was the one that booked the reservation, the tab got a bit confusing. At first they were taking it off my total, then the server said that hold would come off so I paid for my meal/drinks there. I did end up getting double charged (for both the reservation hold and my meal) which was cleared up with a quick phone call to their establishment---apparently it is a new process they are trying. I do understand though why they wouldn't want to just deduct the hold as then people that don't know how to tip wouldn't tip on the total, which hurts the server. All was cleared up regarding this mishap though so no complaints.
