    Coffee
    Marjie M.

    Today, my younger daughter and I had brunch at our favorite spot, First Watch, and the place never disappoints us. Today we tried the breakfast taco and it was a win. Great service, nice ambiance, and good food all the times.

    Great  cup of coffee

    My hubby took me out to breakfast for that small amount of time away from work and kids! Our food was great I cleaned my plate!!! Had two cups of yummy ! The waitress Sheila was so nice and great service! The place is so peaceful that we love first watch! Great gluten free options for our son too!!!

    Million Dollar Bacon

    A really good breakfast spot! The server was very nice and attentive. I ordered the Quesabirria Hash and a side of the million dollar bacon. The bacon was really good, sweet & savory. The Quesabirria Hash was good but I think it was missing something seasoning wise.

    My second time here and it was great! My first time I was not impressed with the avo toast. So they gave me a bogo card to come back. I had the hash and my husband had a seasonal breakfast nachos. Everything was delicious! Also love the spiked lavender lemonade!

    Avocado Toast

    First Watch is always a solid choice for a fresh, feel-good meal. The food, drinks, and service are consistently great, making it an easy favorite for brunch or a casual breakfast. I always find myself coming back for the avocado toast--it's simple but done perfectly every time. And if you haven't tried the Pomegranate Sunrise yet, you're missing out. It's refreshing, slightly sweet, and the perfect companion to a sunny morning meal.

    Ordered take out from here today and our breakfast was delicious. When we got it, our food was hot as if it just came off the grill. We got home and it was still very hot. I had the bacon, egg and potatoes with a huge biscuit. While my wife had almost the same except she has the turkey sausage and wheat toast.

    First Watch has always been one of my favorite brunch spots! They have many locations and the best part is that each location gives you the best experience and atmosphere. Our server Brenda was amazing she spoke Spanish and has a great personality, keeps the table up with drinks and smiles throughout our experience at the Apollo Beach area. I ordered my favs which is Ham & Gruyère Melt paired with a purple Haze and a pair cinnamon toast cereal milk. My friend got the traditional plate which is good if you want a little bit of everything in your morning dish. I enjoy bringing my love ones to this amazing restaurant for a good start to our day!

    Avocado toast
    Richard H.

    My wife's favorite place for breakfast. Not cheap but very good. She loves the avocado toast with eggs , avocados are fresh and tasty, toast & eggs done just as she ordered-perfect , I ordered the ranchero breakfast enchiladas -chicken, chorizo & cheese wrapped in a tortilla with Avocado & cheese on top .. spicy but not overpowering with a side of black beans - excellent, I would order again. Our server Lexi was personable and very good, coffee and tea service was prompt and overall she made us feel welcomed. The place is clean and bright ... was a little cold inside but other than we will be back for sure

    Great place to enjoy good and drinks with friends and family. Wide variety of choices on the menu. Inside and outside seating. All of the staff are very friendly

    I love First Watch, the food is so good, flavorful and prepared to be more on the healthier side. We have not had a meal there we have not enjoyed. Service is always delivered friend and courteous. The place is open and relaxing. They have a nice variety of drinks, some you are able to get with alcohol. There is one drink with ginger and agave I love to get especially if I'm feeling a lil something coming on, allergies or cold. As hubby and I love First Watch I can bet you will to. If you have seen them however never stopped do your pallets a favor and stop, go in and get a delicious meals and drink. We have gone many many times. Introduced to this place by our son, thank you son. Pictures from a few different visits.

    My love took me to this breakfast spot. I had a difficult time deciding what to order because everything sounded so good. I finally decided on the pancakes, he decided on the omelette. Everything tasted phenomenal, and the service was on point. I wish I got my waitresses' name so I could hype her on here. Ambience was super amazing for a morning date. The spot is more like an upscale diner 11 outta 10 would come again.

It's a great place to share a meal with family & friends. It was very comforting! We were greeted immediately by Dilara. She was so friendly and helpful throughout the visit. She even gave me a great suggestion on choice of drinks. The Milkis Banana Soda was the perfect fit for me. The restaurant started to get very busy at lunch time, and none of it phased her. She handled it like a pro. We started with the Corn Cheese appetizer. I would have never tried it if my friend had not mentioned it the day before. It was such a great shareable dish. It's delivered all bubbly on a hot plate. It looks almost like Mexican street corn, but it has a totally different flavor profile. It was almost sweet enough to be a dessert. I love that sweet cheese topping! It was a cold day, so we decided to get soup. I went with the Galbitang, and my friend selected the Soft Tofu Stew. It also came out bubbling hot, and served in its own cast iron pot. A very hot pot, so don't touch it. Lol! The rib meat was plentiful. There was a large rib bone in my soup. The meat was so tender, and fell right off the bone. The broth was meaty and full of flavor. There wasn't a whole lot of glass noodles, so I suggest you add the meat dumplings for an extra $5. Otherwise, just add the rice that comes with it. It was perfect with the rice. The banchan sides were also very tasty. I was surprised that the kimchi wasn't overly spicy. I really loved all the different flavors. What's even better is that they don't rely on salt to make it tasty. All the natural flavors of the rich rib meat shined through in the broth. It was a meal to be savored slowly as the broth started cooling off from the hot temperature. You can actually carry on a conversation while enjoying it, and not worry about your soup getting cold. Again, it was a very comfortable & enjoyable experience! We wanted to try the Korean Hotteok for dessert. Unfortunately, they didn't have any that day. I definitely want to go back and try that. I'm also very interested in trying their vegetable ramyun & gimbap lunch combo. There was a Bulgogi Wrap special that also looked very reasonable. They have different specials each month. Everything was great! I could definitely tell that a lot of hard work goes into making each and every dish. This hidden gem deserves multiple return visits. It's very close to the Manatee Viewing Center, so you might as well check it out while you're in the area.

I was able to order a sirloin and eggs, plenty of protein to start my day. Ashley was working this morning and was very happy to share some news of their uniquely delicious dessert options. If you are a dessert person and dine out then you know how boring it can't be in the Tampa area. You get the same old lava cake, key lime pie, Apple something with caramel drenched on it and the peanut butter pie and cheesecake. Well finally the Bistro decided to take it up a notch and get a lemon cello cake, a chocolate torte. So for a short time if one of these desserts appeals to you hurry over before they are gone. Ambiance is casual and open lots of seating options from booths to high tops to regular tables and bar seating too.

I saw the flatbread on the menu and knew it would be just perfect portion and flavor. Nothing else on the menu matched what I was hungry for since I didn't want anything too heavy. Others ordered some pasta dishes and they even had some tuna on the menu. Overall, this was. good meal. The food all came out pretty quickly and everyone enjoyed their meals.

The people are also very nice even if service is a little slow. Okay, now to the meat of what you're interested in: the food. If the food were 50% cheaper you'd probably be willing to overlook its shortcomings for the ambiance. There's little seasoning to be found on anything so everything is bland. Even the fries are completely lacking in salt. The grouper was breaded nicely and cooked properly but it was almost tasteless. The bacon carried my wife's Crab BLT because everything was so bland for her. The lobster dip appetizer had uncooked Parmesan sprinkled on the bread that was neither bruschetta nor dipping bread so it just didn't work well as an appetizer either. Overall, there's a better restaurant literally next door that's a little cheaper and I can't see coming back after such a disappointing outing.
