    Avocado Toast with Cheese Grits
    Aviva B.

    The service here is always excellent, and the online waitlist is amazing to utilize when the wait is long. The restaurant itself is very clean and decorated in a farmhouse style. I love that they have seasonal menu specials, and I enjoy trying whatever juice is new for the season. I will continue to beg them to bring back the pineapple express juice, as I am still mourning its disappearance. The avocado toast is my go-to here. They give you a mountain of avocado, and I love the touch of a fresh lemon slice to squeeze on top. They also provide hot sauce at the table, which is amazing on the avocado toast. This dish normally comes with eggs on the side, but I have never had an issue swapping them for potatoes or cheese grits. I have been here more times than I can count, and I cannot wait for my next visit.

    I of course had been to first watch before.....but this was my first time to the Oviedo location which is the closest to my home. First watch doesn't disappoint. That fantastic bacon! I always enjoy trying out the seasonal menu items. I have a tendency to order the same thing when I go to restaraunts usually, but First Watch is usually a place where I often find something new. The staff was friendly and the breakfast was great! The environment is usually noisy in First watch and this one was not really different, but it was a little better than some of them I have been in. Love First Watch!

    Floridian French Toast

    This time round, I ordered a pickup from this First Watch location. My food was ready right on time, and the pickup spot was convenient as it was right by the door. I got the Floridian French Toast, and the fruit was fresh (not canned like some restaurants). My french toast was delicious and filling. This spot is definitely one of the better breakfast/brunch options around.

    I haven't been here in a couple years and was surprised by how much I enjoyed it this time. The menu had so many fresh and delicious options, including fun drinks. The service was friendly and prompt. There was local art and the restaurant was super clean. I will definitely be going back soon.

    I like First Watches. Out of all the trendy brunch chains places around town, First Watch and ABEC really are just so good. So I was off work one day, and wanted a delicious brunch. I invited some friends out, and we settled on this place. We got on the call ahead list, got seated promptly when we arrived, and started canvasing this intimidating menu. There are a lot of things on their menu, and the problem is that they all sound amazing. How do you choose? Well, I choose by having the server choose for me. Our delightful server told me that she was really feeling, The Works Omelet (Ham, bacon, sausage, house-roasted Crimini mushrooms, onions and tomatoes with Cheddar and Monterey Jack. Topped with all-natural sour cream) with a side of Fresh, Seasoned Potatoes and an English Muffin. So that's what I got. Not a giant omelet, but it was cooked well, and it was stuffed to the brim with the meaty fillings. Not too greasy. The potatoes were even better. Go look at the picture. Certain sides of the potatoes were burnt, which is absolutely perfect in my mind. I don't know if people look at reviews for First Watches. But if you're reading this, I vouche for this place. A very diverse menu with something for everyone and a good amount of food so you won't leave hungry. Come.

    Elite burrito I tried to put all the things it got in it but was to wordy

    Christian is an awsome waiter Oviedo location the food was awsome and they keep a clean establishment.

    I love that they have a waitlist! We didn't end up needing it since they were not busy at 9:30 am during the week. We went as a family and everyone got something different and it all came out exactly how we ordered. Our server was fantastic and came around multiple times to make sure we were okay! Love that the menu changes seasonally and makes it exciting to come in all the time.

    Excellent and Delicious! Had breakfast here with my two buddies that I have known for over 43+ years. The food and atmosphere are awesome! One has the tomato soup and grilled sandwich. Another had the hazy with eggs on top. I had the yogurt bowl with fresh fruit and a pancake with banana granola topping. Nice big bowl of yogurt covered with fresh fruit! Yummy! The pancake was delicious too! Everyone was very satisfied with their meals! We will be back as soon as we can!

    I love brunch! My husband and I were wanting to try a new breakfast place and so we decided to try this place out. It was Saturday around 11am. The place was packed full of people and there was a bit of a wait. I love how they have a waitlist system that uses text to notify you of when it's your turn to be seated. We were able to wait in the comfort of our car. We were seated and we ordered but waited quite awhile before we got our food. I think I had about 4 cups of coffee before I actually got the food. The waitress did apologize for the wait, and was friendly. When we got the food, it was pleasing to the eye and hot! The food was good. The jam and multi grain bread was strangely my favorite part of the whole meal.

    Great brunch today. We asked for a booth, and didn't have to wait at all. The server was awesome, and the food good. The churros were the best here!

    Very much enjoyed breakfast this morning with my teenage nephew. Arrived early on a Saturday morning and was quickly seated by a smiling host. Our table near the window was clean and we did not have to wait long to place our order. Traditional Breakfast for me; Chocolate Chip pancake for him. My plate came full of breakfast yummy, the potatoes were excellent and the multi-grain toast - I could eat a whole loaf of that. My nephew enjoyed his pancake, not too gooey but featuring a bounty of chocolate chips. Our server was very nice and I give any servers these days props because there are so few to get around. Check-out was easy enough and one young man even held the door for us as we left. Get there early because this lovely breakfast spot gets first-come, first-serve QUICK.

    Our favorite breakfast place, everything is great, outdoor dining so we can bring our puppy. We have tried just about everything on the menu and never been disappointed. Friendly and prompt service, a joy to eat there.

They have a few nice craft beers on tap and the most amazing hummus platter ever. So many places give you a tiny dollop of hummus, a few crackers and if you're lucky a few cut up carrots. Not here, you get a giant amount of hummus - you get house made lavash - and you get beautiful baby medium sized carrots and all of that is only $8 on happy hour. The hummus is very flavorful with a tiny kick and the lavash is super crunchy with an amazing seasoning on it that reminds me of "everything bagel seasoning". You'll see two different pictures - these were taken a year or more apart but you can see things have barely changed. You always get the amazing crackers and carrots and a huge amount of hummus. They also have a few great wines by the glass on happy hour, some yummy sliders, and now a pepperoni pizza that looks awesome but I haven't tried yet.

For my entree, I got the chopped elk medium cooked. It was fantastic. Very delicious and almost tasted like a really beefy meatloaf. Not gamey at all. The sauce drizzled on it was so savory. I wished there were more mashed potatoes underneath because those were amazing too. It was also a very big portion. Definitely recommend. Would come back again and try something else or even order that again.

The restaurant sits along a popular bike trail and you will see many people biking on by. The service was great. The waitress was so pleasant and helpful when ordering and made sure I got everything I wanted. Timing in drinks and food was spaced out nicely. I ordered a large orange juice and the white chocolate chip pumpkin pancakes. Plus got scrambled eggs and 2 sausage patties. The pancakes were so beyond delicious! I highly recommend ordering. I didn't even need syrup the pancakes stood well alone. The sausage was very flavorful. My friend got the sausage gravy with biscuit, eggs, potatoes, and bacon. They loved their meal.

The espresso martini wasn't my favorite but the bartender offered to remake it to my liking which I greatly appreciated.
