Healthy turkey omelette made with egg whites
Karen M.

I came here to meet some friends for breakfast. We were seated immediately and we had wonderful service from our waitress. I ordered the healthy turkey omelette. It was so yummy! I would definitely come back here for breakfast with friends as there were lots of things I'd love to try.

We stopped by First Watch while we were in town, and the first thing I noticed was how busy it was. There were lots of people waiting for a table, which is usually a great sign--and it definitely proved to be true here. We waited about 30 minutes to be seated, but it was well worth it. The service was impeccable: very friendly, attentive, and accommodating. Our food came out quickly and tasted amazing--fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. This is a great spot to hang out. I would absolutely recommend this location and would gladly come back again.

I had an all-around, great experience here this afternoon. Upon our arrival, I was surprised to see how full the parking lot in front of the restaurant was. It was after noon on a Wednesday, and I didn't expect them to be very busy, especially since they close at 2pm. As we walked in, I scanned the room for an open booth (our seating preference) and didn't see any open. We asked for one anyway and were offered a half booth directly in front of the host stand, but as it was being cleaned off, a couple in the back of the restaurant got up from a booth preparing to leave. They were very accommodating and got that spot cleaned off for us right away. Our server, Anna, was amazing. She checked in with us right away to get our drink orders, even before I'd had a chance to look over the menu. She got my husband some coffee and brought me water, while I looked over the menu to decide on my drink. I knew that I wanted one of their fresh-squeezed juices but wasn't sure which. I decided on the Morning Meditation, an energy-boosting, slightly spicy blend orange & beet juices with turmeric, ginger and lemon. I always say that I prefer my morning jolt in fruit form and this blend of fruit juices definitely fits the bill. Hubby ordered the Tri-fecta, a classic breakfast of eggs, bacon and he subbed French toast in for the option of pancakes or waffles for an additional $1.99. I opted for the 2 For You Lunch Special with a 1/2 sandwich (Monterey Club) and 1/2 salad (Sweet Honey Pecan). I ordered the sandwich with no tomato and when I didn't say no tomato on the salad, Anna was sure to point out that the salad had tomato too. I appreciate little details like that! I don't mind tomato on my salad but despise having a full slice of it on my sammy, but that extra attention to detail was not lost on us at all. She was also sure to let us know about that upcharge for the substitution of the French toast. So very appreciated because a surprise on our bill is never a good time! My husband cleared his plate, which is saying a lot. He usually thinks restaurant French toast is too thick and filling, but the amount given was just right. His eggs were cooked to his liking and so was the bacon. He thoroughly enjoyed it all. I only ate on the salad portion of my meal while at the restaurant, but I must say that the combination of ingredients on the Sweet Honey Pecan salad work together in perfect harmony. I wouldn't change a thing. The salad was amply dressed as well. I usually have to ask for additional dressing, but that was unnecessary in this case. I was unsure about the "warm" factor of the honey Dijon dressing, but it was really nice. The serving size was generous too. I'll be enjoying my 1/2 sandwich as a snack later. We paid at the counter/host stand and snagged a couple of stickers on our way out. We will certainly return again in the future.

Nasty sausage gravy

I'm not sure how a restaurant can make the most disgusting sausage gravy and the worst biscuits I've ever eaten at the same time, but First Watch did it! Just an awful breakfast. The biscuits were like stale hamburger buns and the gravy had a jelly like texture. Seems like it is probably is premade and shipped in- so horrid. Our omelet was laughably bad- an overcooked egg disk with some meat and cheese thrown in at the end. We had two entrees with potatoes that were undercooked and crunchy. They did absolutely nothing well on this order. All 3 of my kids barely touched their plates and said it was gross. Overall, just an excellent way to start Mothers Day!!

I love this location. It is bright and clean and has interesting decorations. You are always treated well at this location my favorite waitress Anna was the hostess today so I did not get to have her as my waitress however she turned to me over to a fully capable waiter named Gabe. He took care of me very well and made sure that I had enough to drink, and that my order was good. I ordered my usual avocado, toast and iced tea with a side of bacon. He checked in with me and noticed that my eggs were overcooked so he took them back and got a new order. They came out perfectly after that and tasted great. The avocado toast tasted a little off, and I voiced this at the end of my mail just with the intention of letting the kitchen know, but Gabe took it off my receipt. I told him that was not my intention. He was very magnanimous and hey Siri

Maple bacon croissant sandwich and million dollar potatoes
Stephanie L.

Cute spot! Been here a few times! I love love love the chia seed pudding bowl. This time I tried the seasonal maple bacon croissant sandwich, which was fantastic too! Service is always nice and friendly. My husband got a latte that was a little too sweet for him and the waiter noticed. Took it off our bill without us asking!

Great place and great variety of food. They are only open for daytime eating and the food is delicious. The service was great too. The location is very convenient and plenty of good parking. We will definitely return here.

Great breakfast from First Watch this morning. Highly recommend this restaurant for anyone craving breakfast or brunch.

The Traditional Breakfast
Andre L.

It's a nice cozy chill spot the service is was above and beyond especially the greeter she opened the door before I even touch it and welcomed me what's the kicker also so amazing that she sat me down to a table pulled out a chair and everything... haven't gotten my food yet but they already won me over

Kids bacon and eggs
Linda L.

I would say this is more of 3.5, but will round up. I liked the healthy options. The food looked good, but will not be in my rotation of breakfast joints. The salmon frittata was a bit over cooked. A tomato or something else also would been nice for the salad instead of just the greens. The fruit on the kids plate was good, as was the toast. The lemon curd pancakes was not super fluffy. It's just one gigantic pancake. There was nothing that was very great about it. It wasn't bad... just meh. The service was adequate, but she just kind of disappeared. Another person dropped off the food, and it was a good 10 min after we finished eating that we ever saw her to try to get the bill. Which is sometimes difficult with a kid. The ambiance was good. It looked like they had some tables set up for a big group. Luckily we got there early enough on a Saturday before the rush. There were some booths and tables, it was a good size place. Otherwise, not too notable.

Trifecta, Bill's go to!
Jerri S.

We were in Indy visiting family and popped in on a Sunday morning around 10. We were seated right…read moreaway and the place quickly filled up. Our server was on top of it the entire time - fresh, hot coffee in a nice size mug that she kept filled our entire visit. The menu is huge and everything coming out of the kitchen looked great. I ordered the breakfast burrito with sausage and a side of hashbrowns. The burrito was loaded with eggs, veggies and sausage with a great salsa verde on the side. Biggest enough to share or leave with leftovers. My husband ordered the hoosier frittata which was massive and topped with sausage gravy. He upgraded for $2 for the side pancake which was perfectly crisp on the outside and fluffy on the inside. He helped with my burrito and ended up taking more than half his home which he said was just as good warmed up the next day. Service was great and the manager stopped by every table to check in. Highly recommend!

The PM was huge and just right for him and his fries were nice and crispy. My EB was delicious with lots of spinach and lox. This plus the hollandaise and English muffin was a nice mix of healthy and indulgent. My only complaint was that it wasn't hot enough. It comes with potatoes but they let me sub fruit salad, upcharge, which was really good, lots of different fruits. Overall this is a solid restaurant with great service, a large menu and decent food.

This was a 10/10 experience and I'll break it down: Atmosphere/decor: beautiful. Love the cool tree with the lanterns hung inside, they have a good amount of outdoor seating as well. Cozy booths and regular table, as well as a bar with comfortable stools (where we sat). Cocktails: we both had a skinny spicy margarita with Fulano tequila (per the bartenders recommendation). It was presented beautifully, and crafted well. Would absolutely recommend- great kick from the spice and tequila, not too sweet, just perfect. Chips & salsa- some of the best we've ever had. I could've just drank the salsa by the glass. Guacamole- not to be redundant but again, some of the best we've ever had. Beautiful presentation, comes with two large tortilla chips, but we ended up using the chips from the salsa for the guac. Just outstanding flavor, very fresh. Dinner: he got the chicken fajitas, it was a very generous portion, well season, cooked to perfection, great flavor, freshly made tortillas. I got the Asada tacos, these were outstanding, not greasy, cooked perfectly, salsa. Verde was delicious and the rice was fluffy and soft and flavorful. Highly recommend both dishes. Great portion sizes, I brought one taco home and he brought a large portion of his fajitas home as well. Service: Our bartender, Ever, was phenomenal. Very personable and kind, makes great cocktails, had great recommendations, attentive, personable, overall just did a wonderful job. I'm telling you, don't sleep on this one, more people need to know about this because this restaurant deserves to be packed. The quality, atmosphere, service, and food were all 10 out of 10.

Mornings easily lands in my top three breakfast spots…read more The space is clean and nicely decorated, with a welcoming, cozy feel. Andrea was incredibly kind even at 7 AM, which says a lot. The coffee is strong, fresh, and exactly what you need to start the day. The breakfast burrito is massive (seriously, it could feed an army), the pancakes are fluffy and melt-in-your-mouth good, and the hash browns are perfectly done. Everything came out quickly, thanks to Froy and Eduardo in the kitchen. I made sure to tell them how great the food was, and their big smiles said it all you can tell they genuinely care about both quality and service. There's plenty of parking, which is always a plus. If you're feeling a little lazy but still want a great breakfast, Mornings is the place. Go say hi to Andrea, Froy, and Eduardo, you'll be treated to a breakfast that feels like something your grandma made for you on a Sunday morning.

I was visiting my cousins for the weekend and we were hungry, but didn't want to cook AND we didn't…read morewant to get dressed to go out. So...we ordered carryout (onlyb1 person had to get dressed...lol). Everything was packaged well in aluminum foil bowl with the plastic covers. There were 4 orders, but only 2 sets of plastic ware (just a note, not a reason for 4 stars not 5) The food was delicious. I shared my crispy potatoes with my cousin because they forgot hers (first reason for 4 stars not 5) with the order. My veggie omelette was light and fluffy. I added cheese, which was melted on top instead of being incorporated with the veggies (another reason for 4 stars not 5). The pancakes were good, too...light and fluffy. My cousins enjoyed their meals as well - one of the bowls (Portuguese, I think), steak and eggs, chilequilles. The only complaint was that it wasn't clear while ordering that the meat shown in the photo of the chilequilles was not included, so my cousin was disappointed when it was missing (3rd reason for 4 stars not 5). I definitely recommend this restaurant, just make sure to check your carryout order before leaving to make sure everything you expected was i there.
