This is our first visit to this restaurant. Walked in right at 7 am as they were opening the door. Food was very tasty, not very hot i think the plates were cold when they put our eggs on them. Service was good. This place is a bit over priced for 2 of us 2 breakfast dishes and one cup of coffee with tax and tip was $29. read more

First time coming to this modern eatery in Aurora. Overall experience was great. We were immediately greeted and seated. Coffee was tart. Not sure what that was about. Perhaps the coffee blend??? I love my cup of joe and that wasn't for me! Farm house skillet hash was delicious. The banana pecan crunch pancake was even better! Definitely worth the try though. read more

We were told the wait was 15 but we waited 45 minutes. People who came after us were getting sat before us. There were six tables that could have been cleaned for the next guest but instead sat there for 45 minutes unoccupied and not cleaned. When we asked the host they said the kitchen was behind but food was coming out pretty quick after people sat down.... So we knew this wasn't true. Once we sat down, a server didn't reach us until about 15 - 20 minutes later to get out drink order. Two tables next to us got sat down after we did and got their drinks and food sooner than us. The entire time we didn't throw a stink about any of this but it honestly just wasn't right so here's the review. Other locations we've gone to do a lot better than this. I would say this location needs to step it up because the other locations are soaring with how efficient they are and kind versus this location. On top of this I advised the server I wanted my eggs completely cooked because I'm pregnant. He seemed to understand this but the eggs weren't cooked when they came out. They were runny. I found this to be pretty unacceptable. I didn't complain when he came back the one time to check on us. Instead I said everything was fine but it wasn't. But then he asked us if we were paying together or separate. We had only gotten our food for about 10-15 minutes long and now he was asking how we were gonna pay.....all in all I still think this location needs work. read more

If you don't mind a very noisy place. We asked if the music could be lowered so we can hear each other speak and see told no. The food was good but we won't go back read more

This is a great new brunch spot in Aurora. The restaurant is a modern, streamlinedlarge open space that is very pleasant. A waitress did not come to our table immediately so we flagged one down. She said this was not her table but she was happy to help us. She took our order right then. The food is wonderful. I had the chickichanga and it was delicious. Large chunks of chicken, cheese, egg, avacado and peppers rolled up inside a grilled tortilla. And the Vera Cruz sauce they put over the top is amazing. My friend had the lemon riccota pancakes and they were superb. I don't normally drink iced coffee but I decided to try it. I was very rich and creamy and just sweet enough. I can't wait to return. read more

The check in staff is hopeless. The restaurant isnt staffed to manage a crowd of any size.

I am not too sure how to review this restaurant. My girlfriend and I showed up around 1100 and was seated really quickly. We had no idea what we wanted and had to ask the waiter for some ideas. We sat there and discussed the dishes between us (GF and I) and decided to get the Chickichanga and the Farmhouse Hash. The waiter stated that the dishes we picked were pretty good choices. After a few minutes, our entree's showed up. My changa was missing something, not an actual ingredient wise but it could have been hotter. The Vera Cruz did taste well, but I would next time order extra sauce. It was enough to entice, but made you want more of it. I would ask for a little bit more seasoning on the chicken, but chicken can be hard to season overall. Maybe a dash of the potato seasoning on the chicken would bring the dish up a notch. The GF dish was a lot better than mine. The overall taste of the dish had more flavor to it. With almost the same ingredients as mine. Maybe the chef decided to leave double tap the seasoning with the hash dish and only single tapped with the changa. It is hard to describe, but I would totally do the hash dish if we went back to the restaurant. So the reason why I only gave 4 stars instead of 5 was the service. About half way through our meal, our server came by and asked if everything was good and dropped off the check. We replied everything was good but that was the last time we saw our server. I ran out of water just after that and had to drink the GF water, which lucky she still had some. And both of us agreed that the water had a funky taste to it. Like it was unfiltered water. Would have asked for a refill or a lemon slice for the water but Oh yeah, we didn't see the waiter again. Will have to try again and see if this restaurant compares to another chain breakfast restaurant on Colorado Blvd read more

Me and son we stopped at this place the first time i gonna tell this place is all about organic everything tasting fresh and natural service is good i going to bring my whole family to this place for the next time i highly recommend this place. read more

Delicious, delicious, delicious! We came here for brunch and had a 45 min wait, which wasn't terrible. They have a text system, so we walked over and shopped a bit at TJ maxx while waiting. The service was great and the server recommended some of her favorite dishes to us (which we opted to get). We got an egg sandwich, lemon ricotta pancakes (the best!!) and chili chorizo omelet. The dishes all balanced each other out, were big serving sizes and definitely satisfied all our palettes. Can't wait to come back (although every time I drive by, i see more and more cars in the lot, so i'm sure the popularity of this place is shooting up!) read more

Fresh food, great drinks, cool vibe and seems like they add a modern spin on regular breakfast. All the food was great. I had the hash. It had a ton of bacon and was just overall good. Eggs were over easy cooked perfectly. We'll be back to try other dishes. read more

Excellent food and great service! I highly recommend this place for breakfast brunch or lunch.

Cant rate the food as we left before ordering. The hostess said 5 minutes to be seated then proceeded to seat everyone that walked in including parties of 2. We asked why we were being ignored, hostess said "oh you're still here?" and then started ranting about why she was going to quit her job. We left. read more

Went to First Watch on Friday for some brunch. The food is usually good but we've had our issues. Friday, I ordered the classic benedict, potatoes and a couple of extra eggs. My wife and son were almost finished with their meals when mine finally came out. We were under a time cruch to pick grandkids up from school. Naturally we were late. read more

Staff was rude and dismissive. Waited 15 minutes at the bar for food and was skipped.

We just walked out of this place. Very rude receptionist. She seats us near entrance, and there's lot of open table. We asked if we can move to the next table she said NO with pointing finger up and walked away. read more

I absolutely love this place. The staff are vey friendly and customer service is great. The food is amazing and we have never been disappointed. Always a tough decision on what to order. The million dollar bacon is something we order every time. We will definitely be back again and again! read more

A 20-30 min wait turned into a 40 min wait for a table cause the hostess input my phone number wrong. Then it was an 1hr wait for food. Next time have your hostess tell customers ahead of time if the food is going to be a long wait too. If I knew I'd have to wait nearly 2hrs to eat, I wouldn't have put my name down for a table. Other than that, the food was okay. It was almost worth the wait.. I've eaten here on a weekday where it wasn't as busy and the food was so much better than today. They definitely skimped on the chorizo for my omelette. It was mostly egg. read more

Awesome spot for breakfast, brunch, or lunch. This place is poppin' so make sure you don't get there too hungry. Thankfully, they have a text service to let you know when your table is ready. There's a super cute park within walking distance and it's a great spot to roam around while you're waiting. We both had delicious meals and I highly recommend the Meditation juice. It was insanely good. They are great about allergies, but I agree with another reviewer that they should just get a $20 dedicated gf toaster. Otherwise what's the point of having GF bread! read more

Used to be our go-to... after today, I'm not so sure. We went today the wait online was listed at 30-40 minutes. We checked in and were told the wait was an hour.... no big deal. We decided to order online for take out. We order Ana are given an estimated wait time of about 25 minutes (12:04pm). We wait In our car And go in around 12:05 to pick up. The hostess tells me they're "running a little behind" and that I can sit in the lobby and wait. I Ask her if she knows about how long it will be before food is ready she says no because they take their orders in the order they receive them.... (OBVIOUSLY????) I asked her kindly to check with the kitchen so that I don't have to wait in my car and be super close to other people waiting in the lobby. She walks to the kitchen ans comes back and says it will be another 20 minutes she was super reluctant to check in with the kitchen for me so I honestly doubt she even asked. After waiting 20 more minutes we go in to the restaurant once again and ask if our food is ready and the hostess disappears from the desk and send a manager to let us know that it would be 30 to 40 more minutes before our food is done. I honestly wish I was exaggerating to make myself feel better.... but these are actual events/times. After waiting over an hour and a half, we asked to cancel the order. The manager tells us they can't refund us in store an that we need to do it online and won't be refunded until 5-7 days have passed. Just..... a mess. I worked many years in food service/hospitality and I understand that restaurant to do get busy so I always try to take it easy on staff but I just feel like this situation was handled ridiculously and could've been avoided if they are online wait time/food order time was accurate to begin with. After the mistake there was no effort to rectify the situation or at least to take accountability for their mess up. Super super super disappointing read more

Please register and be added to the waitlist coz they will not tell you that when you walk in. People are coming in and be seated before you and you wonder why because they are already on the waitlist and the hostess was rude and snappy to us when we asked the question. We've been going to different locations in the past and with pleasant experiences but this one. read more

I tried it in Texas and loved it, so I decided to try it here in co, and it was excellent, and the service was even better. Amanda was great and attentive, looking to return and try more of the menu read more

My wife and I were sitting outside on the patio waiting to be served. There was a guest on the patio with a dog (which we have no issue with). While waiting for our order to arrive, as the waitress served the table with the dog she also brought out an over easy egg on a plate to provide the dog. She then commences to break up the egg in her hand and allow the dog to both eat out of her hand and off the plate - which I assume is the same plate guests eat off of. We didn't mind the courtesy extended to the dog, but it is also not sanitary to pet or feed a dog while handling guest food. In addition, the dog was an Irish wolfhound (female) that with her height, slobbered on the table as she stood by her owner. As the staff cleaned the table it wasn't properly sanitized as that rag which now has dog saliva (which is known for bacteria) will be used on multiple tables. As we checked out the staff member (a male) asked how things were which struck us because as many times as we have dined at First Watch in multiple cities we have never been asked this question as service has been good. I assume the manager of the restaurant- a woman - then asked the guy (the staff member we were talking to) what happened and he explained what is stated above. He also stated that this practice is unsanitary and not protocol as staff are not supposed to feed animals. The manager then jumps in the conversation and says that is not against protocols when seated outside on the patio. She then turns to me and says her wait staff member scrubbed her hands before serving us in a very rude and unprofessional/dismissive manner. I then responded that we as guests don't know that is the case considering they (two women servers) petted the dog multiple times - in fact so many times they never came to check on our table once served - in addition to feeding the dog. They habitually kept going to the dog. We took video of this incident (the staff feeding the dog) and we're going to send to the city to of Aurora as well as post on Google and Yelp. We initially told the guy we would delete it as he properly responded. However, when the manager rudely jumped in and devalued our feedback and dismissed us as guests by saying "it's not a problem and waving us off" I decided to reach out to corporate as this is by far unacceptable. I do hope to hear from someone at the corporate level to explain the policy of wait staff and animals. Further, this manager needs to be reprimanded and retrained. I expect an apology from her directly. Further, I experience a gluten allergy and your restaurant was one of the top places for me to eat, but now I am thoroughly convinced there seems to be no continuity with management and staff around policy, courtesy, and overall hospitality. One would assume we all have learned a very important lesson on the importance of sanitation especially with covid but it appears there is still a long way to go for some to understand why cleanliness at a restaurant is imperative and what decisions foster sound principles versus continuous lapses in judgment. read more

First Watch - Dog eating from our servers hand and out. And from a dish that customers will eat out of as well. - American Near Me - Aurora, Colorado

We moved to Aurora and this became our breakfast place. Very quickly, it became a place we will never go again. The staff is super nice, the food, by and large, is pretty declines. Odd assessment for a one-star review, right? The reason it's one star is because the kitchen refuses to acknowledge food allergies. On multiple occasions now, we have noted allergies at the beginning the meal and food has come out with those items in the food. We have sent food back, understanding that can happen, and had food STILL come back with said ingredients. Utterly hopeless. We will go back when the head chef changes. read more

Despite joining the waitlist online, we still had to wait an additional 10 min to be seated. Once we were sat, it took another 15 min just for waters. By the time we got our cold waffles, it's been an hour. I would not recommend unless you like one egg and cold meals for $15. Environment is mediocre as well as for the servers considering we had to flag ours down for simple things such as water and ketchup read more

Terrible service. Waited 45 minutes for avocado toast. When it arrived finally it was cold. Server gave us a free muffin to compensate. Dining room had a dozen ppl. One table arrived after us, ordered and finished their meal before we even got our order and nobody cared. Not going back that's for sure! read more

Really good breakfast. We ate at the First Watch in Greenwood Village, Denver, CO. Our server was excellent. He had a customer sitting across from us that was absolutely awful to him and directly insulted him, and he was still extremely respectful and attentive to him. We gave him a good tip and assured him he was doing an amazing job. read more
