    One of my favorite brunch spots in the area! I've been here multiple times, and it's consistently a great experience. I almost always order the sandwich and salad combo because it's fresh, filling, and never disappoints. I also love that they have seasonal menu items, so there's always something new to try, and their fresh juices are always refreshing and taste like they're made to order. The food is consistently delicious, the service is friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere is bright, welcoming, and perfect for a relaxed brunch.

    Can never go wrong at First Watch. With amazing service, great ambiance, and delicious food the experience made is always right. Highly recommend to eat here for brunch, but do expect it will take time for food to come out but it will be fresh. Love eating here.

    Lamia took amazing care of me and my family. We started with the Pumpkin Spice Donuts. They are delicious on their own, with the sweet cream they elevate to the next level. I had the Kale Tonic to drink which has the greens I need and the sweet taste I crave. Hits the spot every-time! Hubby had the Blazing Dragon to drink and he really enjoyed it. My son (8) drank decaf pumpkin coffee with creamer and sugar. For breakfast hubby had the Breakfast Tacos and subbed the black beans for the million dollar breakfast potatoes. These are his absolute favorite! I got the Pumpkin Pancake Breakfast, a side of buttered wheat toast, million dollar bacon, and chicken apple sausage patty. The Pumpkin girlie in me rejoiced! The pumpkin pancake was so flavorful, airy, and cooked perfectly! My son had the kid's chocolate chip pancake with bacon. He loves the pancakes and bacon cooked perfectly! We love first watch. You can look around and see everyone ongoing their food whether it's lunch or breakfast. The atmosphere is full of happy customers enjoying time with friends or family, being taken care of by awesome servers, enjoying delicious food! We will be back very soon! Our favorite Breakfast destination!

    Very good breakfast this morning with Boss Lady, but I wish I could have said "great breakfast." Although the dishes came out quick and hot. It needs just a few tweaks. My smoked salmon and veg fritatta was good, but whatever white sauce that was streamed on top of it was too much, and my "toast" wasn't. Her BLT benedict was tasty, but the bread was hard to cut, and the potatoes needed more crust and flavor. Our server was super sweet and gave us a cinnamon roll because it was National Kindness Day. We'll definitely try this location again!

    If you want a nourishing breakfast, this is the place to go! The food is fresh, healthy and absolutely delicious! I love their lunch options more than breakfast because the portion sizes are just perfect. The tomato basil soup is fantastic with a sandwich. Also the beet orange juice is sp refreshing and it just looks nutritious. Our server was attentive and recommended great choices for my friend. It is always busy since they're opened for lunch and dinner. Despite this, the restrooms and the entire place are very clean. This is one of my favorite breakfast restaurants! You'll enjoy it!

    I am a frequent flyer at First Watch and have been to many of their locations and it has always been A+. My daughter and I were in Dallas for a funeral and stopped in. Our server, Kortabia was amazing. Her energy was contagious and was just pleasant. Too many people are quick to write negative reviews or complain. However, I would like to do the opposite and point out an amazing person that changed the tone with a smile. Kudos to you. Kortabia. Thank you! A++++++

    Food was great, my server Joel was amazing! He was so knowledgeable about the menu and suggested the million dollar potatoes as a side and they did not disappoint. Overall service and environment was really good!

    Do they have outdoor seating this time of year?

    I would imagine they would. Depending on the weather outside.

Our server had a scowl on her face from the moment she came to the table. (Long dark ponytail) It was 12:30pm & it was not busy (breakfast rush was over.) We had to get up three times to ask for things, our toast & pancakes, napkins, coffee. The three servers working were standing at the front counter talking away with each other our server, at one point, was talking on her cell phone. The food quality has gone down in recent months. Eggs were nice & hot, hash browns were cold, bacon had been good in the past, but our past two visits the bacon has tasted burnt & it has an odd flavor. Toast was over cooked, not buttered, it was not edible. The last time our coffee was refilled was by a man that looked like he had just come out of the kitchen. He was very nice & we were grateful that our coffee was being refilled without having to get up and ask for it. The servers were still lolly gagging behind the counter while the gentleman was refilling our coffee. I have worked in the restaurant business from being a server & also in management. I am very understanding of all angles of what is going on in a restaurant setting. The service on Saturday was the worst service I have ever experienced. Rude & unapologetic, it was as if we were inconveniencing her. We will not be returning.

    We came here for Mother's Day, it was a last minute change due to our reservation for another place…read morewas later. This place was open earlier, which is nice for a Sunday. The only two things I remembered from this place was that the food was salty, my husband also commented that on his food--and he likes salt! Second, with my daughter and her many food allergies, we decided to go with plain chicken wings. They mentioned the seasoning was just salt and pepper. My daughter mentioned it being spicy so I tasted it and yes there was seasoning other than salt and pepper. I was very annoyed because she's allergic to gluten and some seasonings contain gluten. I notified the waiter and assumed we were getting a new order. BIG NOPE! What they did was RINSE the chicken and reheated it. How do I know this? Prior to sending it back, I cut a flat of the chicken wings in half for my daughter. When we got the "new" wings, the cut up flat was still on the plate. I was so shocked. Never seen that in a restaurant. At this point, we were all pretty much done with our meals and a storm was brewing so we just wanted to get out of there. I will not come back.

Betty waited on our table. She had such good energy and was super knowledgeable about the menu. I'd like to come back and request her specifically.

I'm not in this area of Dallas often, but I will make it a point to come back. I forgot to mention my cocktail! I had the Honey Bourbon Limoncello and boy was it good. I'm a lightweight so I couldn't try any of the other cocktails but their cocktails all look delicious!

There was a short line and we were waited on by a friendly and attentive staff member. The inside of the store is packed with food, drinks, and baked goods. There are also frozen ice cream sandwiches which are served inside of macarons. There is a wall of drinks and large counters of baked goods. We loved our cakes, scones, pop tarts, and danish. Each was delicious in its own right and flaky golden brown. The flavors popped and we had a hard time leaving some to bring home. This is a definite must try cafe. I can't wait to go back.
