It was amazing. I was in phoenix for a week for a conference and this was the best food I had the whole time. Floridian French Toast was so good. It was a friendly environment too and not a bad place to eat by yourself with the bar. I would totally go here again if I lived in this state. read more

First Watch - Floridian French Toast - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

The service here was very amiable. I tried out their Monterey club and kale tonic. First off, the kale tonic was way too sweet. I expected it to taste more like kale. But it tasted like apple juice with sugar and a hint of kale in it. The Monterey Club was delicious. The food is pretty good, but not mind-blowing. My whole order came out to $19.09 (including tax and tip). read more

I had the chicken quinoa bowl and it was very filling ~ delicious! My son had French Toast and he enjoyed it as well. The portions are a nice size. It's very clean and the staff is friendly. I've never had a long wait at this location like I've experienced at other locations. read more

This location of First Watch is my most frequent spot. The staff here is great from front to back. Their kitchen makes their food consistently excellent. Ambience and location is great for any day of the week. Market hash is my go to if you want to fuel up!! read more

Food and service are excellent. They do close at 2pm. Menu has a wide variety of items to choose from

I ordered avocado toast ~ it came out with hot eggs and ice cold bread and avocado- putting hot eggs over cold bread and avocado made the eggs cold and it ruined breakfast for me. The server wasn't overly interested, so I simply asked for a piece of warm toast to try and make it better, but that didn't work. yuk. read more

It is hard to rate the food because it was served at room temperature. My multigrain pancake was not warm enough to melt the butter on top. Our bacon was also not served with our meal. We were told after several minutes that they were out of bacon. (How does a breakfast restaurant run out of bacon?) With all of that we were given ham as a substitute at no cost (delicious). The food was tasty. Just not hot enough I will probably try again but I am only in Phoenix for a week. Might be next visit. read more

I must be ordering the wrong things. I'll keep the rating where it's at for now since my daughter always enjoys what she gets. The service is excellent, I can always say that. For me it's the food that is always slightly disappointing. This time I got the healthy turkey omelet, which sounded delicious. I cut into it and immediately knew it wasn't going to be great. As soon as it opened, all the dry loose ingredients fell out of it. Nothing was holding it together, no moisture, nothing. The eggs were overcooked. The onions inside were good, the turkey and cheese were very dry. The toast and jam were the most enjoyable things on the plate. As always, my daughter enjoyed her avocado toast. If we go again, I'll just have to go with whatever she orders I guess. read more

Amazing healthy options that actually taste great! Had an omelet with roasted vegetables that was superb. Love that they have healthy side options and they don't have any fillers with eggs. My husband had the Trifecta with waffles and bacon, his was great too. Ambiance was family friendly. Service was fast and friendly. Love this place. read more

I went there with a friend at 8:00am on Saturday. We were seated right away. We ordered coffee and they leave the carafe at the table. I like that. My friend ordered the traditional breakfast and I ordered eggs Benedict. I orders came and were not hot. I didn't care for the hollandaise sauce. I think I would give it another try but order something else. read more

This place is new in the area so I waited a bit to try it. I came in around 815am it wasn't busy. The staff seemed friendly and nice. I ordered the inspired Italian omelet and my son had the power wrap. My dish came out and it was terrible. I cut into the omelet and the amount of veggies it had made my plate watery. The omelet was bland and did not taste good. The potatoes weren't good either, they were hard and some were burnt. My son's power wrap according to him was just ok. The tortilla was soggy. This place is expensive, the price was $34+ not including the tip. I did not finish my dish as I did not like it. read more

First off the restaurant is really nice, the space was well lit and had plenty of seating. We came in when it was starting to pick up around 9am. We got greeted fairly quickly by our server Jasmine. Got 2 drinks, she got our order right after our drinks. We did not see her til well after our food came which was wrong. I had already eaten majority of my food. My boyfriend's order was messed up. Got the order remade which took a while. Each time she would disappear and go to her other tables but avoid eye contact w ours. We kept asking other servers to get her for us because the honey crunch iced coffee came out way too sweet, there was so much caramel. We wanted water&syrup. She forgot our syrup 3X's. She kept saying sorry each time she forgot then finally after I finished eating she brought the syrup. She dropped off our check saying"anything else let me know, no rush"all while facing her back towards us and didn't make eye contact and walked in the opposite direction. She was attentive to other tables and kept disappearing to help them. We wanted boxes to go by that time she was no where to be found again. So we left, upset at how unattentive our server was and how everything was messed up and food came out inconsistently. Potatoes were to salty. I liked the biscuits and gravy and the eggs. We also enjoyed the French toast. Probably won't be trying this place again, it could use some improvement with service and the way they make iced coffee for being a breakfast/brunch place. read more

Service and parking were great. However the food was not. I've had good food here before but this time it fell way short. The salad tasted odd like it had a brine of some sort on it (too salty). read more

The eggs Benedict had no flavor and the potato's are really salty. And the honey toffee crunch coffee was way too sweet. Everything had the potential to be great. It's just that they didn't find the right seasoning ratio read more

First and foremost our server was very nice. The problem was the food. We had 3 meals; 1 was ice cold, 1 was barely warm and the other burning hot and All 3 were bland. When we checked out we were asked how the meal was and we told them not good and the guy just shook his head and said ok, so we repeated our answer again and got the same, he didn't even look up. Clearly he wasn't listening at all that alone made me leave 1 star. So the 3 meals 2 coffees and the juice was $76 not including tip. Overpriced for sure especially with the food being cold and the guy upfront who pretended to care about our experience. read more

Consistent good breakfast and service at a good price. The only down side to this location is the size...not much waiting room inside for when it is busy. read more

I can't truly give a full review as I never got service... We waited 22 minutes for someone to come to our table on a Wednesday morning with multiple staff and only 5 other tables in the restaurant. I finally had to leave and get breakfast at Starbucks.... Frustrated and disappointed. read more

We went here today the service was ok but when we got our food the potatoes were burnt, I'm not sure how a cook could let them be serviced. When mentioned to the server she just said that she wouldn't eat them and that she would bring us new ones but our hole point of even saying anything was that they shouldn't of ever left the kitchen to be served read more

Beautiful restaurant , elegant farmhouse vibe VERY welcoming great service and is airy and open . Outstanding food , we also got lemon ricotta pancakes that were so fluffy and amazing . Will be coming again :) read more

Food could have been better if the eggs benidict were on a softer bead. Before down sizing the rest of the food, the only thing that was delicious was the coffee ... the friendly service. read more

You're going to have to wait to be seated because there's always a line but the food is very good for the price. Awesome brunch ambience and the service was great. I also very much enjoyed the presentation of the food and drinks. A must try. read more

Enjoyed the salmon frittata and the purple haze juice. Both were delicious and more than expected. The servers were all friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. read more

Good food. Different take on the standards but delicious. Service staff was great and happy.

So very disappointed. I have been going to FW locations around the valley and this was by far the worst meal. I got a takeout of the new seasonal hash. As I was walking out I noticed the bag felt so light I had to check to see if they forgot to put my food in. The meal was very tiny sitting lonely in the middle of the container. I went back to the restaurant and the hostess offered to add more potatoes. I had to rush back to work and was starving so I decided to just eat what I got and not to ever go to that branch again. The sunny seul hash for $17 ended up being a tiny bit of severely oversalted potatoes with occasional bits of sweet peppers or something like that. It was barely edible. On my way back to work I stopped back at that FW to let them know how absolutely atrocious the meal was and the manager assured me they are refunding me for it. Why am I not surprised that a month later I never got my money back. read more

We love that this opened up by our house! Delicious food and great service. My kiddo loves their pancakes.

Wow, this place is very clean and neat. Corporate feeling the portions are very small, shrink, fellation, stipulation whatever you wanna call it and the waitress said no to taking my cash so i had to go stand in line and pay the register. Should've ate at home. Typical answer you get from a national breakfast chain. Find a mom n pop, that uses local vendors read more

We went for a preview day, and the service and food were great. All the staff was very attentive and the food was delicious. I've been to several First Watch locations, and this one was just as good. The decor inside the restaurant is great too. read more

Not impressed, not much of a verity on menu , was wanting a hamburger for lunch , this place being a breakfast and lunch only restaurant they don't serve hamburgers or fries then to top it off granddaughter ordered a juice drink was half full when we were getting ready to leave waitress asked if she wanted a to go for her juice , got a to go drink and find out they charged for the to go drink so ended up pay 11.00 for glass of juice. Needless to say first and last time will be eating here again . read more

I must say, I'm disappointed.. I usually go to the union-hills location but thought I'd give this one a try since it's closer. Well that was a mistake, first; they have their seasonal selection, but for whatever reason you cannot order the churros, and that is for every location, second; they messed up a very simple ordered kids meal, they left out the fruit and they did not put the right side of bacon that i ordered, third; the place was packed and the waitress didn't even shoo the homeless man away that was making the guests feel uncomfortable. Forth; they make it editable on the menu to request a special order for the coffees, I.e. almond milk, but when I went to pick up the order it was informed that this is a premade drink. Overall this was the worst experience I've had with first watch. read more

Half way through we were notified that dog's aren't allowed on the patio... been here multiple times and they were in the past. So for anyone with a dog, hoping to dine on the patio, good luck. Not a fan of this manager for sure. I will not be back. read more

We've been going to this location for over 2 years, love it. But, the last two times the freshness and quality of the food is not what it was, hash browns/potatoes for all are dishes were very salty, the bacon was cold and seemed to be precooked. Service was great as always. I'm criticizing in hopes this will improve, so we don't have to find another place. read more

This restaurant is a joke. My friend and I stopped by to eat Sunday around 10:50. We noticed everyone that walked in the door was seated, while we were waiting over a 1/2 hour. We approached the Hostess Station and ask what was going on. We were told that first come are the ones that made a reservation on line. What the heck I have eaten at First Watch for years as I love their food, but reservations. This was such a joke all the people that walked in were irritated and degusted. So we left as we knew we would wait an hour like the people previous to us that were walk ins. While I understand that you can check-in online, who would think that a restaurant like this would take reservations and everyone at 11. I will never go to this establishment and will not make reservations for a place like this. We went to another restaurant because we knew we would not be seated for an hour plus. The other restaurant was fabulous, we were seated right away and had a great meal. I make reservations at better restaurants not First Watch. Why can't you seat a reservation and then seat a walk-in or is that too hard to figure out. If you have to go to this restaurant, then make a reservation or don't go, it is horrible how you are treated. They must think they are an upper scale restaurant which is hysterical!!! read more

Everything was incredible! Sat at the bar & service was terrific. Great food & amazing unique drinks. The Carmel ice coffee is life changing! read more

We were happy to see this location open near us. Went on a Saturday morning and it did not disappoint. First, it looks and feels great! Everyone was friendly and on their game. The food, as usual for a First Watch, did not disappoint. Oh and mimosas always put me in a good mood. Did I mention on a busy Saturday this new crew had it buttoned up! Service, food and vibe what more do you want. So glad to have this in the neighborhood. read more

This place is amazing. Staff is wonderful. This has probably become one of my top three breakfast places of all time. Is by far the best place in the Phoenix area I've found yet. The decor makes me a bit homesick for Portland, which I actually appreciate. So often places give a get in and get out kind of vibe, but thankfully this place just whispers relax, and enjoy! read more

The menu is very interesting and fun, but way too salty. we have been there twice and each time the salt just overpowered everything. Also, both times our food was barely lukewarm. read more

Love this new First Watch on 43rd Ave! Bright and airy, farmhouse modern look. Food was so delish and healthy! It was presented beautifully on an artsy square plate. I especially liked the artisan bread and homemade strawberry jelly! The blackberry iced tea was refreshing on a burning hot day. Our server, Nickolas, was friendly and took good care of us. Gotta say the place was busy busy, so try for off times and weekdays to avoid the crowd. We will definitely be back! read more
