    Salmon eggs Benedict

    This chain is definitely a favorite of mine best the food is always delicious and fresh. I've visited two separate places in Tucson and will definitely come when I want breakfast. Great variety and something for everyone.

    Stopped here after a run! Great service , good food & enough vegan options to satisfy. I had the chia seed pudding power fruit bowl & potatoes with a fresh squeezed watermelon juice to drink . Yum.

    Yup

    We love First Watch, every one that we have been to is great, this place is no exception. Our server had a new trainee but service was still quick! I had the Pesto quinoa chicken bowl. It was a delicious mix of quinoa, kale, tomatoes, chicken, pesto sauce and feta. Nice! A blackberry tea to wash it down went very well too. Yup, it gets a big recommend!

    My favorite looks so delicious the trifecta

    When I came in I was greeted by the manager Fernanda in like 3 seconds it was beautiful! I sat at the bar and I enjoyed the beautiful atmosphere from all of the customers very positive energy everyone is smiling and Luke served me at the bar and I had a water and a morning meditation, and my order came out in literally in 5 minutes and I was greeted by Sonia and out with my food in seconds and was so friendly and it was so delicious. Very incredible experience. Thank you again!

    Food was good but waited 15 minutes for the drawer to open and it sucked. I was now late for work. I paid cash.....do not do that again. Loved the food though! But just received a "sorry" and here's for your next visit. Me: ok at least I got a BOGO or a free meal...nope! The manager gave me a five dollars off coupon. Great thanks that makes up for the 15 minutes that you made me late. Back to the food, though I really loved the food and it was very flavorful and I really appreciated the helpful waitress. I recommend this place as long as you're paying without using cash.

    This place is clean and cute. The staff are friendly and helpful. The menu selection and presentation is also good. We will definitely be back soon

    Lemon Ricotta Pancakes
    Sepideh Z.

    *This review is for a visit on 10/09/22* It's a Sunday so everywhere is expected to be packed for breakfast and/or brunch. I called in advance and asked about their wait time and they said 45 minutes which was completely fine with us since other places we tried were over an hour. I joined the online waitlist before we got there so that we would be 15 min in our wait time by the time we arrived. The only problem I had with this experience is that the wait time was definitely at least 1 hour 15 minutes instead of the 45 minutes that was told to us prior to us going. By the time we got seated, it was 12:00 and then it took another 15 minutes for the server to come around to get our orders. We were extremely patient and understanding given that it was a Sunday and this place was packed. By the time we got our food, we were super happy to finally eat and everything was delicious. I ordered the lemon ricotta pancakes which were unreal and so fluffy. I couldn't finish all of it but it was very good. The only other complaint is that the water glasses were a bit dirty so we did not drink water. We stuck to the coffee which was meh also. However, I would go back for the food alone.

I'm so happy to have found this place ! You order at the counter and there is plenty of seating. I ordered the tri-color Vietnamese dessert called Chè Ba Mau, which translates literally to tri-color dessert. Chè is a traditional category of Vietnamese desserts that can range from sweet soups to puddings, and it often combines various beans, jellies, and fruits with coconut milk and shaved ice, traditionally. This particular one here consists of coconut milk, pandan agar jelly, red beans, and water chestnut coated in tapioca. The hubby ordered the grass jelly and coconut milk dessert. The grass jelly has a mild herbal depth and it is balanced beautifully by the smooth, lightly sweet coconut milk. Both are equally refreshing and sweet, with quality ingredients that really make it satisfying on a hot Tucson day. I absolutely will be returning here for future Vietnamese desserts!!

I wouldn't say that it is top of the line cooking, but it is very delicious and definitely worth a visit this side of town. Parking can be a little challenging, they do share a parking lot with other businesses, but close in, there are not that many spots. Service is always friendly and makes you feel comfortable. Interesting atmosphere with flamingos galore and other things decorating the inside. Gives it somewhat of a party and fun feel. Food comes out in a timely manner even when they are very busy. Prices are reasonable. Give it a try, I think you'll like it. 5* = A top favorite. Mind-blowing good. I will definitely return and I will go out of my way to go here. Worth every dime of my money. 4* = Outstanding. Top-tier. Some elements not quite as good as it gets, but it still is worthy of my regular business. 3* = Good experience. I might do repeat business if it is convenient, the only option, the only one in its category, or on a whim, but would not be among the first thing to come to mind. Would definitely recommend you trying it to get your own take on it. 2* = Not so good. Would not recommend at all. Waste of money. 1* = How are they still in business? Stay away at all costs!

The line was really long, so we used the iPad they provide to place our order. We selected a matcha, but the iPad never gave us the option to choose between hot or iced. We assumed it would come iced, which is our mistake for assuming. When our order came out, the matcha was hot. We went inside and politely asked if there is any chance we could get it iced instead since there was no option on the iPad. The owner herself took the drink and remade it, which we appreciated, but her attitude toward us after was unnecessary. She told us that next time we should order directly with them because we just "wasted their cups" and so on. We apologized again and explained that we would have selected iced if the iPad had actually given us that option, but she didn't really acknowledge what we were saying. What made the experience more disappointing is that I work in coffee myself, so I understand what it's like when things get busy. I chose Barista Del Barrio out of all the coffee shops in the area specifically because I'm Latino and wanted to support a Latino-owned business. I even tipped when I placed the order on the iPad, so I was disappointed with how we were treated over something as simple as an ordering-system issue.
