    Cinnamon chip pancake breakfast
    Mahauganee S.

    We love First Watch for family breakfast so we tried this location and had a great experience. Our waitress was awesome. The food was delicious. We had a round table with enough space for our family of 7 without feeling cramped. Everyone enjoyed their food. The restaurant is clean and bright. Literally, no complaints. I tried the cinnamon toast cereal milk (coconut rum, cold brew coffee, oat milk, and agave)...it was delicious.

    If you're looking for a quality, Sunday brunch hot-spot, this place is it! Arrived about 10Am and was promptly seated. It's called First Watch and this place should be among your first choices of breakfast dining. Many of their dishes seem to be designed for a more health-conscious diet with fresh fruit, granola, and avocado as some of the featured ingredients but they do have the classics like chocolate chip pancakes and meaty omelettes. Everything we had was delicious and seasoned-well. Service was extremely prompt and our waitress was friendly. The atmosphere was upbeat and clean. It seemed like most people were reeling from their morning Java or just excited for the upcoming Bengals game. Either way, this restaurant was a perfect place to grab a little grub and I look forward to trying another one of their mid-morning scrambles.

    I've always been a huge fan of First Watch and this location wont let you down! Plenty of great options for all dietary needs. I'm a fan of the omelettes, million dollar bacon, and the bacon lettuce tomato sandwich with eggs on it. The only reason I didn't go with 5* is that it's a bit overpriced for the amount of food you could get at other restaurants. However, the food is very earthy, organic, and is worth paying extra for a fantastic meal. The staff at this location were super accommodating and pleasant. I came to celebrate one of my staff getting a promotion and we went all out. Grate place to splurge and still feel like you're eating healthy. The morning meditation (drink) is one of my new favorites to enjoy as one of those splurges.

    I'm a huge fan of First Watch! Always recommend the Million Dollar Bacon to start with. Never had a bad meal here or any location.

    Chickichanga is a favorite!

    I'd never been to this particular location. But it's near home and has its own parking lot, so it seemed like a good one to try. We visited one busy weekend morning. Luckily it was just early enough to not have a terrible wait. They told us twenty minutes for a family of four, but it ended up only being about five. We ordered a few different things to share. The chickichanga was something I had tried once and remembered liking, so hubby and I ordered that to share. So glad we did because it was awesome - definitely a favorite I'll return to again! We also got banana granola pancakes and a waffle for the table. The bites of pancake with the caramelized granola were the best! But I think I liked the waffle even better - it was amazingly fluffy and absorbed the butter and syrup in the most perfect way. We also made sure to get a side of Goetta. It's actually not listed on the menu, but I saw a plate of it delivered to another table and asked about getting one for us. This location is one we would return to. Thanks to all the friendly servers there!

    I've had Ivory House on our bucket list for a while. I was super excited to try it with my…read moregirlfriend for my birthday... Here is what they did well: - great bread, truly amazing as house made - gelato was fantastic - pretty inside/decor - sides were pretty good Here is where it went south: - our serve was very casual and almost seemed put off by us. Not attentive, not overly welcoming or friendly - my girlfriend stated it was my birthday, an our waitress saw me with a birthday gift and no acknowledgement no asking oh is it your birthday? Meanwhile 2 other tables received a happy birthday, with a candle and dessert - when going to a "steakhouse" is that you go there expect to have an amazing steak. Not the case, my "medium" steak was cooked half medium half rare. For a filet it was also very fatty. when I asked the server (probably 25 minutes after our food was served) she said it didn't look medium and offers to put it back on. no apology Overall it felt very underwhelming and when you pay $70 for a steak you expect it to be right. On top of that celebrating a special occasion, for a $200 meal for 2 people, it Was a bland experience. We've heard amazing reviews so hopefully your experience will be different than ours! We said we'd give it another shot but not going with steak.

    Ivory House after served years is still on top of their game. From ambiance, food and the wonderful…read moreprofessional staff. I cannot express more how great the food is. Everything I've had here is on point. It is nice to have such a great place on the westside. If you never have been here, it is a must try.

    I've eaten here twice and it's growing on me. Really good food and cold beer was what I was looking…read morefor. They have about 20 beers on taps. Not as many Hazy IPA's as I would like but they had the Reingiist Truth which is real solid local beer that tastes even better on Tap. Wide variety of food options with leanings towards Greek food which I think I was told the two owners are Greek brothers. But they had all kinds of different option for lots of different pallets. At restaurants, I usually try to order one of their specialties. At J Taps, I ordered the Gyro and steak fries. It was probably the best Gyro I can remember having. The super sweet waitress was quick to bring out my order so it was hot a juicy. The gyro was generously sized and extremely tasty from the first to last bite. I almost couldn't finish it but it was so good. I have a rule not to eat until I'm stuffed, but it was so good, I broke my rule. The steak fries were hot and crispy and I received a generous proportion. My young waitress was very kind. My wife was out of town and not liking to cook for one, I was by myself. I spent 40 years traveling for business and have eaten out thousands of times by myself and I can't remember many wait staff going out of their way, even though they are busy, to talk to me more than to take the order. She went out of her way and even though I'm fine eating alone, it really was appreciated and reminded me that it's not what you say, it's how you make people feel that they remember. I will remember her out of the way kindness more than anything. There looked to be a lot of regular customers, mostly couples, who knew each other. It got pretty busy by the time I left at 6:25 or so. The facility was somewhat outdated and dark, but it worked. J-taps is worth a visit for lunch, dinner or a couple drinks.

    Food is so good. People are great. Lemon pepper wings on Monday are the best I have ever had today.read more
