    Avocado Toast with onion & tomato added. 1/2 half almost eaten.
    Carmen S.

    I was craving avocado toast so I thought I'd give 1st Watch a shot. The avocado toast comes with 2 eggs which I got over medium. The mashed avocado has a little salt & olive oil on it. I added onions & tomatoes & placed my eggs on top to create a Benedict type effect. The toast seemed smaller in person than the restaurant picture but I enjoyed it with the extra onion & tomato toppings. The butter grits were a little too "corn-tasting" for my liking. I wouldn't get them again. My husband's homemade chicken sausage & waffle were both really good. First Watch is a nice change of pace from just your standard breakfast menu of eggs, pancakes/waffles/french toast , and bacon/pork sausage. It's got several more healthy & fresh options like salad as an omlette side, ham, and chicken & turkey sausage. Their smoked salmon frittata is also quite good. Also, the food actually came out pretty fast but the restaurant wasn't too crowded.

    Shrimp And Grits
    Apryl M.

    Update: Dined in for a quick breakfast at this location. Now that it's been open a while, when you walk in, it's crowded full of children so the service can be slow. I ordered the shrimp and grits and when it arrived at my table, it was cold and grits hard. They were nice about replacing my meal. It just took a little while but the it was prepared fresh so I can enjoy a hot meal. Keep in mind we visited on a Saturday so it may be much calmer during the week. But I do like they have some nice breakfast restaurant tonight area now.

    Love the customer service! Their candy bacon is to die for and the eggs Benedict. Pricing is fair too.

    Messy Women's restroom
    Steph D.

    Not my favorite First Watch location. Sorry. But it seemed a little chaotic. It was 10 AM on a Saturday. But there was not a long wait. I had checked-in through the app ahead of time. The hostess wasn't very outgoing or confident. Way too many families for my taste. I just don't think of First Watch as being filled with little kids. My food was good. That is a consistent factor. I guess I just like the location that is a bit closer to my home. Also, the restroom definitely needed attention.

    Tres Leches French Toast
    Tam M.

    I will make this review short and sweet because you don't need a lot of words to tell you to go somewhere with delicious food and great service. First Watch is my annual bday week indulgence - partly because I get a BOGO coupon from their eclub. I almost made a call to a friend to ask if they wanted anything for brunch and I will order as the 2nd entree, but I decided against that when I saw on the summer menu the Tres Leches French Toast. If you love Tres Leches and Strawberries, this French Toast will blow your MIND! As soon as I took a bite, I already knew I would be packing the other entree up to go. The Tres Leches entree, however, is not recommended to be taken home or eat the next day or even later because it will be extremely soggy. Instead, be greedy like me and eat the whole dang thing! It was worth the calories. If you have to change your cheat day to eat it, DO IT! It's that gooooood! The gooeyness is scrumpteous! Service was top nocth as I always experience at First Watch anywhere I go, so no reason not to go. Run as soon as possible before the summer ends to experience this entree before it's gone.

    Chorizo chillies omelette
    Scott R.

    tried this for the first time, ordered the omelette with chorizo and chilies. the service was ok kinda of shocked since they weren't that busy. The ambiance was that of a diner and not too loud.

    AM Superfoods Bowl (love it!!)
    Charlene H.

    Our server was excellent. She was perfectly attentive, smiling & cheerful. It make a big difference when the staff like their jobs. It was apparent that the employees at this location were happy and liked their job. I didn't see a grumpy, sad face in the bunch. As always it was super clean. They take good care to pay attention to the cleanliness of the restaurant. Tables are bussed quickly, reducing the wait for the next group of customers. I ordered the AM Superfoods Bowl. I have found my favorite dish! Finally!! I've tried many things here. Most I really like but this falls in the love category. I've never had chia seed pudding but I'm definitely a fan. There's fresh fruit, fruit compote & homemade granola on top. It comes with a side of multi-grain toast with nut butter--maybe almond butter? Super good dish. The sweetness of the compote and crunch of the granola made this dish a ten for me. Who doesn't love layers of flavor & texture. Now keep in mind, this is in the "healthy" column on the menu but it's not low calorie. It notes 900ish calories in the dish. Good thing I worked out beforehand. Oh and their coffee is really good. I drink it black so it has to be quality beans or I will be able to tell. It's fairly strong without a bitter aftertaste. Husband got the Trifecta with an extra egg. It came with 2 eggs, waffle or pancake and a meat choice. Hubs said it was good but the waffle, while it had a good taste, should've been crispy. He said he'd get it again but with the pancakes. First Watch remains my first choice for breakfast; especially the location at 99/59 in Richmond.

    Honey Caramel Crunch

    First watch is my favorite brunch spot! The food is always amazing and the service from Karissa has been phenomenal the times I've dined in.

    Cobb Salad
    Edward D.

    it's a little hard to write a good review when its food to go. My order was ready when I arrived, and it was still warm. I was greeted by the hostess when I arrived, and she pointed me to the rack where my food was. It was a little crowded at the time 1330 hrs (for a breakfast place), so that is always a good sign. We had the Frittata Rustica and the Cobb Salad. Both were very good and flavorful. We shared the Frittata and it had a really good taste to it. The Cobb salad was also on point. I will probably come back again to dine in.

    They do not serve hotdogs I repeat - they do not serve hot dogs!…read more They serve much more than that. I came here for an event and was surprised at how good and fresh the food was. The staff was so attentive and knowledgeable on all the foods. It's American food, but they do a lot of fusion, so there was something for everyone. My favorite of the night was the loco moco fried rice and the lemon cheesecake! The cheesecake was zesty and not overly sweet, which I appreciated because it let me taste all the distinct flavors going on. The curry chicken salad with chickpeas I know my husband would've loved, I ate it for him lol. I don't know what it was but the bottom of it had a dressing that made it very delectable. I was on the outside on the patio that had a large fireplace and it was so cozy, I can imagine it being very inviting during winter time. Even though I drove from Cypress to Richmond, it was worth the drive. The general manager was super friendly and I learned they have a Cypress location so you know where I'll be going!

    This was a very disappointing experience tonight, which is interesting because last time I came…read morehere it was amazing and over the top quality. First, tonight my family and I came into the restaurant and were not greeted by any hostess or employee for about 7-10 minutes. We understood though because everyone seemed to be in a rush since it was busy. We patiently waited then we were finally seated. Our server took our drink orders first as usual, got us our drinks then walked away. We waited a good while for her to come back since we were wanting to order an appetizer, and that took forever. Once we finally were able to place our appetizer order, it took another 10 minutes for it to come out. Again, we tried our best to be nice since it was busy. Now to the meals.. we put in our order for our dishes and proceeded to wait about 30-35 minutes. There is only 3 of us! Once everyone got their meals we realized it just.. wasn't the best. - My mother ordered a customized pick 3 meal, her roasted chicken sandwich didn't have any roasted chicken, she said it was all lunch meat? And her bread was as hard as a rock. The "truffle fries" that she had to pay extra for didn't have any truffle, when asked about it.. we were informed it was just truffle "oil". What. Lastly, she didn't even receive her soup. They forgot about it. We had to remind them about the forgotten soup for my mother to finally receive it. She said it was not even good. - My mediterranean chicken bowl was..okay, but I did notice that last time I was here I had a good amount of chicken. This time.. I had barely any chicken. We received 0 REFILLS on our drinks, so by the time we ordered dessert we couldn't even finish it since we were so thirsty and the chocolate was so rich. In the end, the rush died down so much where once we sat up to go we were wondering why service was still awful when no one was in the restaurant. The manager did come to apologize, both our server and manager were very nice. They decided to take off the sandwich from our bill and remake the sandwich and soup to go. Once we got home, my mother realized the soup in our to go package was actually the correct soup, and that at the restaurant she has no idea what soup they brought her. Overall, this experience tonight has been awful. We went home thirsty and hungry.

The ahi tuna wasn't the best. It wasn't fresh and the feta cheese was a bit too overwhelming. As for the spinach and artichoke dip, I felt like it was okay. Didn't really like the tomatoes as it made the dip runny and hinder the taste from the star ingredients of the dish. The smoked gouda burger was the best. The meat was cooked perfectly and the amount for each ingredients were given generously. I also really loved how you really can taste the smokiness from the bite. As for the pasta, I thought that it was good but not the best. It was starting to get a bit heavy with the amount of cheese and I do wish the cajun flavor could be a bit stronger. The chicken was also on the dry side but it's still pretty decent. Overall, this place is okay. Service could've been a bit better since it took a while for us to find someone to help us on our water refill and check.

They put both mayo & mustard on their burgers. The hickory burger was ok. You couldn't really taste the bbq sauce. Tots were cooked extra crispy. Luckily that's how I like them but most customers probably would've preferred less crispy; like my husband. The crinkle fries were also a little too crispy for husband. Not too crispy for me. Overall the meal wasn't bad. It's what you'd expect for a small family grill. Fairly priced for the economy we are in. Two combo burger meals ran us $30.
