    Steve at first watch was very accommodating. We had a party of 14 that quickly turned into 17 and he didn't give us a hard time about adjusting the headcount. He also allowed us to move tables and rearrange due to the e party size increasing. There needs to be more service people like Steve that actually enjoy their jobs and are accommodating to patrons.

    Today my Sister and I went in for brunch. The waitress was very friendly, she made sure we had coffee, and plenty of water. I opted to try one of their signature holiday drinks. The ambiance is a cute and cozy farm style breakfast/brunch spot. Even though it was pretty busy , our orders and service came right away. We both had the trifectas with sliced avocado. We both will be back.

    Pesto Chicken quinoa bowl and the traditional
    Andrew H.

    The food is really good. I love their protein bowls, the pesto and chicken and lemon go really well together. However, our iced coffee was super milky and sweet and had a strange milk after taste. But our waiter was super kind and offered another one and even a cup of plain black coffee to mix it up a little bit. The staff are super nice and take good care of you. Good spot!

    BLT benedict with potatoes
    Lucy M.

    Came by this First Watch location with my husband and some friends for Sunday brunch and had some pretty solid food! I ordered the BLT eggs benedict with potatoes, and my husband got the lemon ricotta pancakes with a side of cheesy grits. Others in our party picked the farmhouse hash and the coconut chia seed pudding, and most of us got juices. The large freshly-squeezed orange juice comes with a generous pour even if you ask for no ice, and the BLT eggs benedict had some very solid flavors. Bacon was super crispy, and the dressed arugula was nice and peppery but not too tart. My one quibble with the dish was that the poached eggs had pretty hard yolks and were lukewarm in the center - I wonder if it was just a batch that happened to be overcooked? I would've liked the potatoes crispier too, but that's probably something I can ask the kitchen to do next time. The lemon ricotta pancakes were quite excellent; the pancakes themselves were super light and fluffy, and the lemon curd had a great tang. The portion was also huge. Grits were very nice and super cheesy. Servers were attentive and helpful throughout. One friend is celiac and our server was very helpful in making sure that their gluten free bread was toasted in a dedicated pan separate from anything with gluten. All in all a decent brunch spot!

    Food was great, I ate my whole plate, and our server was really nice. Would recommend!

    BLT Benedict and Traditional Breakfast
    Sheury S.

    I love First Watch! It's one of my favorite, most reliable brunch spots in the DFW area where I know I'm assured a great meal each time! My go-to order is their BLT Benedict, which includes bacon, avocado, egg, and arugula on toasted ciabatta bread! Other standouts on the menu include the Belgian waffle, the Traditional Breakfast, and the Chickichanga. Despite being a busy brunch spot, I'm always treated kindly by the service staff, and my food is served promptly. There's rarely a wait, but if there is, the staff keeps the line moving quickly. Luckily the Richardson location also has an ample amount of seating, including an outdoor patio which is wonderful on breezy days. First Watch is a great, cozy brunch spot in Dallas with an excellent menu, and I recommend it to anybody searching for a delicious meal in the area!

    Trifecta w/chocolate chip pancakes.
    Gwen B.

    Brought my granddaughter in for the 1st day of Springbreak breakfast. She order chocolate chip pancakes & a mango, passion palmer..she said it tasted like "vacation"! She LOVED it!! She said the ham was delicious too. I ordered a blueberry pancake, bacon & orange juice. The pancakes are huge. They were pretty good. I did NOT care for the orange juice, it had a chalky aftertaste that made me gag. We had a great waiter, Nathan. Knowledgeable, funny, attentive. I will come back to try the shrimp & grits when the menu changes hrs next week. I don't know if I'd come back here if I wasn't already near here but it was good for a drive by.

    We called in to get on the wait list around 11:45 on a Saturday. Said 20-30 min wait. I showed up at around 12pm. Checked in. Went to the bathroom where I found it completely messy and unsanitary. It was disgusting. I attached a pic. That had probably been there awhile. While I was washing my hands I made eye contact w an employee that just walked out the door after being in a stall. Was looking around and hoping she wasn't a server but didn't think a job w unwashed hands in the kitchen would be much better. Never saw her again. We were seated about an hour after I checked in. There were plenty of tables open. I think they were just short staffed and every interaction whether it be w the greeter for seating or our server was rushed. They are way understaffed. The coffee cups were dirty at our table, w either paper or something inside them. took probably 5-10 min to get greeted at the table and we waited a longer time than usual for our food. Once received, my friend asked for salsa for which she was told they only have pico. She decided she'd go w the avocado mash instead but it wasn't brought back til she was over halfway thru her meal. the servers were so busy and frantic we couldn't flag anyone down for about 10-15 min. Once we got our servers attention she did bring it back quickly. We used to come here a lot but the service, sanitation and evidently being short staffed will make this the last time. The food even felt rushed this time. Not as good as usual. Sad, looks like quantity over quality now. Used to be good.

    Came here on a Sunday afternoon with friends and enjoyed a great lunch. They sat us on the inside/outside patio and opened the door and it felt nice. It was a bit loud in there, partly because of us, but no real complaints. Food was good and everyone enjoyed what they ate. Service was a bit slow, but to be expected on a Sunday afternoon.

    Sealed bag was waiting for me right up front.

    Love the Tri-fecta breakfast with scrambled eggs, regular bacon, and Belgium waffle. I ordered an extra carrot cake pancake and today I tried the pumpkin spiced donuts, cuz you know it is September 1st, so pumpkin season is upon us! Everything was delicious (as usual) and oh my goodness- those pumpkin spiced donut holes were amazing! I'm so glad I tried them and I'm sure I'll be ordering them again while they are still available.

    Sara H.

    Large restaurant, really big and nice! Have gone a couple times the last couple of weeks and the food is really good. Unfortunately service is extremely slow, I think they are understaffed. Got an omelette (2nd pic with bread) and asked for cheese, mushroom, and spinach only and there were whole mushrooms and spinach, nothing was chopped up. Overall really good food, as long as they're staffed correctly!

    During COVID its been great that you can put your name on the list in advance. When we got there we were up and only waited 5 minutes for us to get sat at the table. Thank you for that First Watch! Had our niece and nephew so there was 5 of us. Kids had the typical breakfast but they loved it. Wife enjoyed the avocado eggs Benedict which have always been a favorite of hers. Love that you can order a loaf of their bread as well. Kids enjoyed the various juices with the purple haze being the favored one for this trip.

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.

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.
