First Watch in Sunrise Florida
Kathy Hyatt Realtor ®.

Love this spot for breakfast or brunch! The food is always fresh and flavorful--favorites like the avocado toast, breakfast tacos, and their seasonal specials never disappoint. The staff is super friendly and the vibe is relaxed and welcoming. Great coffee, awesome juice options (try the Morning Meditation!), and everything comes out quickly. Clean space, good service, and consistently great meals. One of my go-to places to start the day right!

We waited for a both to be available. The minute the hostess sat us down, I had to pull out my sanitizer wipes to clean the bench. the waitress took the persons rag that had just wiped the table to clean the bench. It was already dirty from cleaning the table. I used my sanitizer wipes to wipe it in order to sit down. Took out two more wipes to clean the supposedly clean table that had syrup and eggs on it. Coffee was ordered, no silverware to stir after adding sugar and no creamer for the coffee. I had to get up and go to the front desk to ask for silverware and to bring creamer. The floor where we sat was disgusting.

This location always seems to be crazy busy but the staff is great about making the wait go by very quickly. As soon as a table is exiting, the bus person is right there to clean and set it up for the next patrons. Our server took a minute to come to our table so we had a passing server stop and take our drink order. They have some incredibly fresh juices that seem to be new to the menu. Coffee is delicious and complimentary refills and even a to go cup. The menu is quite expensive with great brunch and lunch items. All very reasonably priced. I ordered the Salmon Frittata and side greens. The flavors were great and all fresh ingredients. Even their bread that comes buttered on the side is fresh baked. The rest of my table ordered the Italian Sausage Omelet with roasted red peppers and Italian tomatoes which tasted like a home style dish. The trio of tacos were served with homemade corn tortillas and loaded with fresh ingredients. The Poached Eggs and bacon with potatoes was basic but cooked perfectly. All our food was served as ordered and delivered hot off the grill or griddle. The service was excellent and I look forward to my next visit.

Pretty solid brunch place! First time in this location and it's smaller than their other locations. Parking is easy to find as it's in a lot. We came around 09:30 and were seated easily with no wait for a party of 5. Service and staff were friendly. I got the avocado toast which was good. Nothing stood out but it was a pretty good option. We also got a side of millionaires bacon which, let's be honest, is always a must! We also tried the French toast and it was yummy too! Not a big French toast girlie but I had to get something sweet! The vibes were what you'd expect from a classic breakfast/brunch restaurant

Perfect brunch! We had waffles with bacon and eggs, a tasty tomato soup with a half veggie sandwich, and finished with the best chocolate chip pancakes. Great service and cozy vibe. Can't wait to come back!

Barbacoa quesadillas benedict.

Came here to treat myself on my birthday after a spa pedi next door and had a wonderful lunch! As with all of their locations, this one is usually very busy with patrons on a waiting list, but a party of one is easy to accommodate. I had the Barbacoa quesadillas eggs Benedict which was amazing. What I don't recommend is the side of beans because they were watery and lacked flavor. Besides that, the service was on point.

I had heard a lot about this franchise so after completing the breast cancer walk with a group of friends we decided to drop in. I ordered the trifecta and a side of cheese grits. The pancake was fried hard and was dry...not fluffy. The scrambled eggs tasted like the eggs I used to eat out the box while stationed overseas. The two strips of bacon were ok and the cheese grits were extremely salty and didn't have that creamy texture like you'd get at Justspoons. The service was the bright spot of the breakfast. The young lady we had was attentive and brought out everything in a timely manner. In today's climate of high prices, saving money is a must, with that being said I could have gotten a grand slam at Denny's for $6 and had a better experience.

www.TheRagingFork.com Great location and big parking lot. Always packed on weekends for brunch time. The wait times are usually 15 - 20 min not bad for weekends. The servings are huge and the loaded pancakes are phenomenol. The male manager is always working hard and polite. Never had a bad meal. 5 stars for sure. Bathrooms are clean too.

Two over easy eggs with a side of avocados.

If there were a 10-star button, Maya at First Watch would've easily earned it! She's incredibly kind, friendly, and attentive--truly a standout. I usually go to the Plantation location, but after being served by Maya, I might just be switching things up. She made my visit feel special from start to finish. Give that girl a raise!

Chickichanga

Went there this morning for my birthday Bogo entree. It's been a while since I've gone and forgot how amazing it is. Both dishes were amazing. Chickichanga is savory and the salsa if used has a bit of spicy. Love it. If you like lemony deserts like me the lemon ricotta pancake doesn't disappoint. Excuse the half eaten food. It looked prettier before I devoured it. I had half of each. Will enjoy the rest tomorrow.

You can't really tell on the picture, but the top is the limp uncooked bacon, and the bottom is the burnt limp bacon.

Naked Farmer - Honey bbq chicken

Naked Farmer is in Sunrise and offers some fresh food for dine in or on the go…read more The first time I had Naked Farmer was in Tampa and was so excited when I learned that they had a location in South FL to try. We came after a busy morning at the beach and I was craving something fresh. After a quick search on Yelp, I found Naked Farmer and was reminded that we were super close to it. It's fairly close to Sawgrass Mills mall and is in a plaza with a good amount of parking. Although the outside seems small, the space inside is pretty long and has a good amount of seating. The servining is "chipotle-style" where you order your food and customize it how you want it and pay at the register at the end. I shared a bowl with my partner and we got half rice and half greens, some toppings, and the chicken thigh. This was a good amount for us to share and it was delicious! We also tried their date cake and my partner was a huge fan of it. I loved how clean the inside was and how nice all the staff was. They had water cups for self service and it was cold even without ice, which I loved! When you're done with your food, you put them away in a cabinet which is constantly cleaned out by staff which helped give the space a clean aesthetic. Very thought through and intentional on their behalf. Loved Naked Farmer and would definitely get again if I'm in the area or craving something fresh!

I must first say I love going to places that gives the feel of real food with real ingredient, so I…read moredecided to come here. The staff is very pleasant and patient. And the place is brightly lit and seems to be really clean. On this day, I decided to try the roasted chicken. I believe it was supposed to have some type of rosemary on it. I'm not sure what's going on these days but it seems like most places are cooking chicken when it's still frozen. It just had that cooked from frozen texture to it. It was tough and bland. I tried the macaroni and cheese, which I did like and the carrots, which I also did like, both solid sides something I would get again. I was able to get the kale Caesar with my plate, which I thought was excellent. It had the right amount of dressing on it. I do plan on returning to try the salmon. Hopefully I have a better experience with that.

Yesterday I had a fried fish sandwich with crispy sweet potato fries and my husband had salmon in Romesco sauce on a bed of haricot vert and finished with bits of fennel on top. From the happy hour menu (3 p.m. - 6 p.m.), one of our friends had tempura shrimp, one had steak on skewers, and another had large shrimp in a beautiful sauce on toasted bread. We had chips and guacamole and shrimp dishes on the table and they were scraped clean! The food was so good that no one took leftovers because we ate everything! The chairs and bench seats are super comfy so if you're like our group, you're going to want to stay for a while. We kept moving around to talk with others in our group because it was like being in someone's house. The bartender and server were excellent. Nicole, our bartender, made a coffee martini that was better than what my friend expected. She realized that other bars served it wrong! I ordered Don Julio 1942 and they had it. My husband loved his pinot noir and another friend loved her fresh strawberry and mint drink so much that she ordered another! The head on my friend's beer was proper and that was nice. Everyone loved the drinks. Our server, Timiya was stealth. She took orders and even took pics for us with such quietness that the energy at our table was unbroken. As the person who suggested Burton's, I loved that I didn't have to worry about anything. Stephen Fithian, the manager, is really focused on making sure everything is smooth. Nothing gets past him, and judging from the professionalism of the servers and runners, that focus is on every level. Everyone at our table got the right drinks/food. We were welcome to enjoy ourselves - the server let us sit for a couple of hours before presenting the bills. I could not ask for anything more. We had such a great time that, while in the restaurant, my friends asked me to arrange another happy hour at Burtons. Will do!

Went Sunday of Labor Day weekend and it was not too busy but LOUD because there was a very large group that was having a good time. First, our server, YANEI was OUTSTANDING! We always like to engage with our server and she was just a pleasure, clearly raised right. Food was UNBELIEVABLE! My husband had Sashimi & Sushi and he enjoyed it, my BFF had the Japanese meatloaf bowl over wasabi mashed potatoes and she loved it and I had Mac & Cheese with Pulled Pork which was to die for. We shared a ginormous slice of Carrot Cake as YANEI recommended and it was SCRUMPTIOUS! So many awesome items on the menu, can't wait to go back for a burger & fries and some ribs.

We had gone to the movies so we were looking for a late night dinner and we weren't in the mood for our normal go to, Flannigans. They were busy, but not packed. I will say that they had a singer and it was VERY loud, but he was great so we weren't disturbed by the volume. There is a lot of choose from - everything from burgers to sushi. We decided on a starter of spicy edamame. Sometimes I find it too spicy for me so we got the sauce on the side. I was happy we did. My husband loved the heat - me not so much. The edamame was cooked perfect - better than some Asian restaurants! Not overcooked and nice and warm! I had the cj black burger with fries. It was huge and I took most of it home. The fries were also good. My husband had a chicken sandwich. He opted for sautéed veggies. I knew he'd be eating some of my fries too. The veggies were very good. Our server brought me a to go container and pointed out the bottom of the to go container which in all the years I've eaten at restaurants I've never had a server actually tell me that. I loved and appreciated it - especially since the top had vents so there wouldn't be condensation! All in all we enjoyed our meal. Service was pretty good and we will definitely be back.

We also ordered the artichokes to share. I'm not usually an artichoke fan, but I tried them and was pleasantly surprised! And the dessert... SO GOOD. We had the white chocolate cheesecake, and it was easily one of the highlights. Their whipped cream is made in-house, and you can definitely tell. We also had drinks with dinner and really enjoyed those as well. My only two small critiques were the atmosphere. There was a slight lingering smell inside--not necessarily moldy, but possibly from the humidity and the carpet. Personally, I'm not a huge fan of carpet in restaurants for that reason. We also had one persistent fly that kept making its way around our table and food, which was a little annoying. That said, the restaurant itself appeared clean. One thing I would LOVE to see them add is fresh bread! This just feels like the kind of restaurant that should bring out a basket of warm, fresh bread while you're waiting for your meal. Overall, I'd give the experience about an 8.5-9/10. Great food, great service, delicious dessert, and a nice dinner for our first night in town. I would definitely come back!
