    Chocolate chip pancake
    Cassandra S.

    If you live in the area and have never been to First Watch, you are really missing out. First Watch is my favorite breakfast place because every location, including this one, is always consistently tasting delicious with fast, easy service. The traditional and the trifecta are my go to menu choices, but I've never had a bad meal here. The pancakes are the best around. Go try for yourself if you haven't already.

    The food was excellent today, but it's good all the time! Service was prompt, the server was so efficient and our server Bricia was nice and brought our food right away! This restaurant is always packed on the weekends with inside and outside seating. Their carrot cake pancakes are always the best! Thank you for the great experience.

    Trifecta

    Had to come in for my free birthday entree. We were able to get seated quickly on a Saturday afternoon which was great. Lots of seating and has patio seating. Service was great in the beginning but once we of our food it seemed like we got forgotten about. Each time we'd try to get our server's attention he was rushing around helping his other tables so I ended up having to ask a different server for my grits I had ordered. By the time I got them the rest of my plate was cold, unfortunately. I think that because of the location and perhaps the day the feel was just busy versus other locations I've been to have a more quaint, cozy feel.

    I loved the million dollar breakfast sandwich! The bacon makes it, so I'm glad it really covered a layer next to the patty. The English muffin is very light and fresh, and is perfectly toasted. The portion is perfect for me with the salad. The Florentine Eggs Benedict is a classic go-to, and my friend loved it! We enjoyed the donut holes if you have a sweet tooth, because they're fall-apart soft in the sauce. The service was wonderful! The staff is friendly and the ambiance is super casual. We only waited about 10-15min at 1:00pm.

They accommodated us with our stroller and made it work. I am so excited that I found a farm to table restaurant where I feel like the food is good enough quality to feed my baby. We paid $50 per person for the brunch buffet and the baby was free since she is under 2. The food was delicious! They had an amazing assortment of fresh fruits, cheese, breads, salads, breakfast foods, dips, pasta, and veggies. They also had a carving station with steak and chimichurri sauce. I tried the chicken sausage, steak, beet hummus, tomato salad, whipped feta, biscuits with jam, and an assortment of the veggies & fruits. I also ordered over easy eggs and French toast which they make and bring to the table to keep them fresh but they were included in the buffet. After eating we walked around a bit to see the farm and the animals. Such a cute place for a date or a family outing.

Just a heads-up: everything is made to order, so it may take a little time. Be patient and enjoy the moment.

The exterior is just as beautifully decorated. It's clear that chef-owner Lori Pope poured a lot of time, heart, and soul into both the menu and the store's design. The hostess was super friendly. As soon as I walked in, she gave me a warm and smiling greeting. The menu was a feast for the eyes. It had a lot of lovely pictures of the different dishes. I was ecstatic to see that there were so many vegetarian and vegan friendly options. Also, most of the dishes can be requested to be made gluten-free. Big plus. You don't order at your table, instead you go to the counter in the back and make sure to bring the sheet with your table number on it. The gal at the counter who took our order wasn't as friendly as the hostess but she was polite enough to inform us about the 15% charge. The food came out very quickly. Hopefully it's because they had a ton of people working in the back. Hopefully. I ordered the Magic Mushroom Tacos and thought it was a beautiful plate. My favorite thing about the dish is the tortillas. It had a nice light crisp to it and kept all the fillings intact from start to finish. The "Magic Mushrooms" were good but could have been better if the batter were lighter and crispier. The batter was a little on the heavy and dense side for me. I also think the sauce could be even better if it had a bit less oil and a bit more flavor. I really enjoyed the potato slices and the fresh berries were a great way to cleanse the palate. My lunch date ordered the Biscuit and gravy dish and thought it was good. We also ordered a side of the Belgian waffle to share. I thought the waffle on its own was extremely sweet and way too dense for my liking. I am happy there's a locally owned and created brunch place like Harvest Kitchen and will definitely be back to try other dishes. Note: There's an automatic 15% service charge to every order.

The fact that all was done was the delivery of our order and not one check on the table to see how the meal was. They did come by and ask for the dishes, but didn't ask how the meal was.

When we arrived, the restaurant was empty, and I will say our server was very nice and welcoming. One thing we immediately noticed, though, was that the menu prices were crossed out and changed. The waitress explained that prices have been fluctuating, but it did feel a little unpolished and confusing seeing gouged-out pricing on multiple items. I ordered the breakfast quesadilla, and my wife got the South of the Border omelet. We also had the roasted potatoes, which ended up being a very small portion. My main issue was that several items listed (or expected) didn't come as described. The quesadilla was supposed to come with sour cream and pico, but they weren't served on the side. We were told the pico was inside the quesadilla, which wasn't noted on the menu. Additionally, both dishes had raw, unsautéed onions mixed into the scrambled eggs. That wasn't listed in the description, and I personally don't like raw onions, so it definitely affected the meal for me. I think ingredients like that should be clearly stated. The cheese sauce tasted like standard heated nacho cheese and was very runny, not what we expected from a breakfast dish. The sour cream also tasted off. Overall, while the service was friendly, the food and menu presentation didn't meet expectations. Unfortunately, we probably won't be returning.

The only reason I held back from giving 5 stars is that the coffee was a bit on the watery side. Otherwise, everything else was spot on. I'll definitely be back to try more options from the menu!

When it showed up I was amazed by the large pile of food. As I began to eat though, I started to get disappointed. I cut into my fried egg expecting it to run all over my plate, but it seems like it was cooked somewhere between over medium and over hard. I was looking for tasting the hot honey, which appears to be under the dish as opposed to on top of it. I was looking forward to a soft fluffy biscuit, but it too was over hard. The Chicken was well cooked, a bit thin, and I'm not sure that the breading tasted anything more like Captain crunch than it did any other breading. However every time I cut into it the breading kind of just fell off into the gravy. The gravy and potatoes were redeeming, with good flavor gravy and well cooked potatoes. Overall, it wasn't bad, I ate it all, I just expected better for my $17.
