Love the skip the line app. If you are up for a health breakfast/brunch, this is the place. Staff is always pleasant and accommodating . And the portions are large . Prices are relatively reasonable read more

If you are looking for a fresh, but not skimp brunch spot, do not hesitate on First Watch! Nestled inside a semi-busi strip mall location off Sunrise Blvd, First Watch deserves to expand. The place is as big as an IHOP Express location, with that said, the seating is somewhat limited. This place usually draws in high crowds, especially during mid to late weekend mornings. Do not worry, they are pretty efficient on getting people in. I ordered the breakfast Chickichanga, which was a fresh mix of whipped eggs with spicy all-natural white-meat chicken, chorizo sausage, green chilies, cheddar and monterey jack, onions and avocado rolled in a flour tortilla. I liked the Vera Cruz sauce and sour cream that topped the chimichanga. Along with the meal, it was served with fresh fruit and fresh, season potatoes. This meal did not disappoint. It was hearty and filled me up until dinner. My wife opted for the Eggs Benedict with ham and tomatoes. I loved the ham used, as it was more of a Virginia-based thin slice as opposed to the traditional Canadian Bacon. The hollandaise sauce was excellent as well. All meals were accompanied with fresh squeezed all natural Florida Orange Juice. The drinks and food were both top notch, and did not take long to serve. My only gripe is the coffee selection. Usually after a big meal, an expresso or Cuban Coffee would do, however they did not offer either. This place is typical American flare, and American coffee was offered. Im not big on that stuff, as compared to Cuban Coffee, might as well drink water. In all, this may be my default breakfast spot for standard fresh breakfast food. read more

I got the 1/2 Sandwich (Roast beef and havarti cheese)and cup of soup(Brocolli Cheddar). Both tasted wonderfully. The Sandwhich was however 3 bites, and tiny cup of soup. Waiting I saw a couple of sandwiches being delivered and assumed because of the small size it was 1/2 sandwich, no it wasn't. Mine was 1/2 of what I saw. Again, it all tasted excellent, service was OK to good, but it was too expensive. read more

For the life of me, I will never understand the hype for this place. I came here on a Saturday with my mother for a late brunch. We waited about 30 minutes for a table. I ordered an iced latte, which on the menu it has a picture of a good looking Starbucks quality iced coffee with all the fixings. I received a water glass of black coffee with ice. Tasted awful. For food I ordered the salmon eggs Benedict. The poached eggs were watery and flavorless and the salmon lox was warm and just alright. It was served with a bunch of breakfast potatoes, which were also very bland. The best part of the dish was probably the english muffins. The worst part of the experience was the couple behind us. I know this isn't the restaurant's fault but this lady was coughing (nasty cough) the whole time we were there. If it was me, or any civilized human being, they would excuse themselves from a place where people are consuming food, or at least I'd hope that would be the common reaction. I made a comment to my mother about how if i was in that woman's situation I would be embarrassed and would excuse myself out of consideration to others. Well our waitress overheard me saying this and as she approached us to drop the check off she coughed in my face and scurried off. Lmao. That was messed up. She did have a friendly rapport with that couple and maybe she thought I was being rude. But I'm sorry, when I'm consuming food that I already somewhat dislike, I don't need nasty cough air in my vicinity. Well, sure enough I will not be revisiting this establishment or any other First Watch. I really was excited to try this place because of the amazing reviews and hype. read more

Very great service from Krystal, our server. Food came out quick, we had the pesto chicken quinoa, steel cut oatmeal and tri-athlete. This is a local restaurant with a rustic feel. Coffee is free trade project sunrise. We come here every time I'm in town. read more

Loading in everyone table next to close table. Allowing people to walk around restaurant without masks. Didn't feel safe at all. Had issue with my pancake and manager refused to come to table. Rest of food good but I don't think I want to catch corona anytime soon. Waitress nice and accommodating. read more

Virginia Beach, VA (Lynnhaven) - I was excited as I read over the menu. But then my experience went downhill from there. The waitress had placed a pot of coffee on the table that had coffee dripping all down the sides of it onto what felt like an unclean table surface. (the table looked and felt dirty/gritty). I reached for the silverware "roll" to get a spoon and unrolled it to find silwerware that did not look clean at all. After wiping down the silverware by dipping my napkin into my water glass I went ahead and used the spoon to stir the cream in my coffee. We waited for what seemed like a long time until waitress finlly did come back and take our order. We sat and chated finished all the coffee in the pot and waited a long time (at least 20 minutes) before finally getting up, and going in search of our waitress so we could get more coffee. After only a couple of minutes another drippy pot of coffee was placed on our table. At this point we had been at the restaurant for more than 40 minutes and we still did not have our breakfast. We waited and waited and finaly got our food. My over easy eggs were cooked hard (zero runniness left in the yoke at all) my waffle was so cold that the butter did not melt at all when it was spread on the waffle. The bottle of pure maple syrup that was on my plate had a blob of the blueberry compote running down the side of the bottle. My sons over easy eggs were also so hard that he was able to remove the yoke like a golden hockey puck from the center of his egg. Our waitress never asked if we needed anything, or checked on us at all during our entire time at the restaurant. So our first impression of this place, can be summed up as dirty, sloppy, with long waits, poor service, and improperly cooked food, some of which was not hot. You only get one shot at making a first impression! read more

Dope food, Isaiah was an excellent server and a phenomenal waiter. Please check out this place read more

The eggs Benedict florentine is okay. The side serving of potato hash was nicely seasoned with fresh onions. The side of fruits was okay. I am not a fan of a fruit bowl from the local Sam's Club type of facility. It would be a nicer touch to add fresh local fruits. Eggs were perfectly poached. Enjoyed the fresh avocado and raw spinach touch. However, hollandaise sauce MUST be made with butter not knock off butter. This one change in ingredient lowered my rating for this dish. The coffee lack flavor, body and such. I am not a professional coffee drinker but I know good coffee when I see it. Serve was quick, clean and efficient. read more

I've been here a few times with friends, and I'm always surprised by how much I like the food because they seem very organic and health geared. I'm pretty sure that the stuff I order is not particularly low fat or healthy, though. But it tastes soooooo good! They have a few different types of pancakes. I love the carrot cake pancakes. I'm also a big fan of the bacado omelette. (Eggs, cheese, bacon, avocado, sour cream, and pico de gallo) it comes with huge slices of toast and strangely, a salad. The eggs Benedict Florentine is also quite good I hear. They have been pretty crowded every time I go but it's worth the wait. The staff is always nice and I haven't been disappointed yet. read more

Great first dine-in experience. Had Sunday breakfast with my fiancé this morning and everything was on point. We've gotten takeout from here once before, food was outstanding, so we wanted to dine in. The wait wasn't very long (although we went in once on a late Saturday morning and the wait was an hour, so you may want to call them or use the waitlist feature on their app), our waitress was attentive, and the food, as per usual, was fresh and delicious. It's a small spot so it does get cramped but the food is worth it. Will come back. read more

Overall, good experience. Food was great we got the Banana Crunch Pancake, Avocado Toast and a side of potatoes. My personal favorite, was the Banana Crunch Pancakes as they were sweet and were a unique twist of regular pancakes. Service was excellent at the beginning as we got seated fast even though they were busy. However, when we were waiting for the check so we can go pay, we could not find our waiter for 15 minutes which was a major disappointment. Once we got the receipt, the line was long to pay but the hostess was very nice which made up for it. I would say this is a great breakfast/ lunch place and is worth checking out. read more

Great gluten free savory breakfast and my husband loved the pumpkin pancakes. Angelene was great!

My family and I came in to dine at the restaurant and our server Heather was taking our order I asked her can I get " The traditional breakfast " but instead of toast can I get a pancake she said I would have to order the " tri-fecta " I said okay find I would like the pancake with with bacon & cheesy eggs & a side of cheesy grits . When our order was brought out to the table Heather was providing me a plate with a waffle and I said to her I didn't order waffle I ordered pancake she said no you ordered waffle so I said to her I come here all the time and order the same thing , so I know I ordered a pancake , she then stated she would go to the chef and request a pancake be cooked . She then brought out the pancake and it was broken so I then told her it's okay I will eat my partial breakfast as is without the pancake since there were so many issues with the order . I'm not happy with my service today at all being that I'm a loyal customer and this has never happened before I believe that a waitress should never disagree with a customer stating what they ordered . I understand that mistakes happen and with a busy time that she may have misheard me but that wasn't the issue . So again I wasn't happy with the service today . read more

Horrible...waited 1.5 hours for sub par food. Terrible service! Don't bother going to Lake Nona ...

Superb place to eat... laugh & have a good time! Loved the happy faces and smile atmosphere & warm welcomes.. kind & helpful waiters.. clean & updated bathrooms. That food is over the charts great! Must try their chickenchanga. The chocolate chip pancakes are amazing.. everything tasted like it was organic & fresh! The fruits tasted fresh and seems to be cut daily! I need one of these places out in NY! read more

love this place & the variety it offers (something for everyone & no need to feel guilty after i eat-no grease). my family loves the pancakes, skillet bowls & breakfast burritos. I'm obsessed with the avocado toast as it's a good amount of avocado on the slice. I knocked off a star because of portions! all small except the huge pancakes * the avocado toast is literally 1 slice & 2 eggs *. i had a issue with postmates delivery (order was wrong & inedible to me/at home with a sick child... left me stuck ) & spoke with kurtlee *management* & he was very understanding & helpful (yes i got that amazing slice of toast I was craving ). that encourages me to continue to eat here with my family. staff is pleasant & i love the atmosphere. . read more

I would eat here every day if I could. This place is just awesome. They offer coffee to their customers on the weekend, because it can get crowded and the wait can be unbearable, but people still wait! We use the No Wait App, which puts our place in line while we are at home... GENIUS. We put our name down, it gives us the an estimated time and even tells us when to leave because it can track our distance from the restaurant. We have been here so many times, that I think there might only be a few items that we haven't tried. Some suggestions: AM Superfoods Breakfast Bowl: Cold, coconut milk chia pudding with crunch granola and delicious fresh fruit! Avocado Toast: Always delicious, includes Maldon Sea Salt- which everyone should try Biscuits N Gravy: Made with turkey sausage! Finally, a healthier option! Kale Tonic Juice: I always get this on my way out the door, in a to go cup, its a great (not bitter at all) drink.. very refreshing ANYTHING SEASONAL: Seriously just try something off of their seasonal menu, they are all outstanding. The staff is always willing to accommodate any allergies or requests that you may have. They are always quick and check in with each table multiple times. read more

The place are very good, food it good and price are ok. The server France is the best, she recommend a Breakfast Tacos, those was delicious. And for my wife the Benedict BLT. Good choices. Thanks Frances !!! read more

I wasn't impressed with the food at all, yes they do have a healthy selection to choose from but the quality of the food was poor. The pancakes were soggy and awful tasting. I went one time and never will be going back. read more

First Watch - Just okay - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Sunrise, Florida

Service was excellent, but food was just OK as everything was dry and/or over cooked.

Great breakfast/brunch spot for a lazy weekend morning. My boyfriend walked in on a Sunday morning and got seated promptly (it might have been because it was toward the tail-end of breakfast and the crowds have dispersed). Our server was awesome. She was very friendly and accommodating. They have your usual fair of eggs, pancakes, bacons, etc. I ordered one of their breakfast specials that had a seasonal pancake with eggs, hash browns, and bacon. I tend to lean toward the seasonal offerings to keep things festive. They also have a good variety of fresh squeezed juices from your typical OJ to golden beets and apples. I recommend grabbing a glass, but if you're undecided you can ask for a taste before you commit. Overall I would love to come back to dine. If I had more lazy weekend mornings, I'd definitely put First Watch on my list of places to visit. read more

I have been here multiple times. The food is always satisfying and the menu includes several healthy options as well. Prices are comparable to most other brunch/breakfast/diner style places but the food always seems fresher here and doesn't disappoint. Staff is attentive. Very clean. I recommend it. * Please note: the comments on the very long wait times for the weekend are true. I have myself attempted to come on both Saturday and Sunday and there is a crowd of people lingering outside with estimated wait times of an hour or more. For that reason, I'll eat elsewhere on the weekends and only come here Mon-Fri, when it is much less busy. I came here yesterday actually (Tues around 1:30) and was seated and had my food on the table in about 10 minutes). Just something to keep in mind. But seeing as how it is a popular place, and they only have so many tables, not really sure what can be done about the weekend wait times. I didn't think it was fair to ding them on that when my experiences have always been very good. read more

This is an Awesome Restaurant. The food was delicious and the service was excellent! I highly recommend. It was worth the long wait to be seated. I understand why it was so crowded. We were in Florida for vacation and really enjoyed dining here. read more

Thank You First Watch. Watched table after table be seated and we checked in before we arrived. Then they realized they skipped us. Then we were promised next table. Nope didn't happen. Wasn't until we left the manager came out and said I'll seat you now too late. We went to Panera instead. read more

120 mintues wait at 12:30 today. Is this now Disney World? If you're a reservations only type place now, come on out and make it so, but for 8 years there's never been an issue, the food is great, but to prioritize somebody coming in 2 hours later over me, that's standing there right now(no line either) is not right. You've botched your management policy and need to fix it asap. read more

gotta try the million dollar bacon !!! the waffles are so soft and fluffy, the pancakes are amazing too. the regular bacon is also perfectly crispy every time !!! read more

Was excited to try this place based on all the good reviews. It was good but way overpriced for breakfast food in a diner type setting. I had the pumpkin pancake special which was $11 and only came with one pancake. I have never been to a breakfast place that only serves one pancake. I had to order 2 more and paid a total of $16 for 3 pancakes and one scrambled egg and burnt bacon. Pumpkin pancake was good but not for that price. Husband ordered the expensive bacon (forgot the name) and that was good and he also had butternut squash soup and it was creamy with a slimy consistency and not very good. Good but not great and when spending close to $40 for 2 for breakfast it should be great. read more
