    Monterey Club She ate hers quick so this pic is from the menu.
    Stephanie F.

    In our journey to seek out a healthy sandwich for my mother-in-law, we remembered that first watch has some great menu items. They typically open from 7 AM to 2:30 PM and we arrived at 2 PM. It's always pretty busy inside, especially during the brunch hours. The ambiance is always airy and light inside. The host there was able to quickly take my husband's order and even went to the back to see if he could try and get it pushed up to the front of the line since it was just a sandwich. We got her the Monterey Club, which had turkey, bacon, avocado, organic mixed greens, tomato, Monterey Jack and mayo on sourdough bread. It also came with a side salad. My mother-in-law really enjoyed it, and it was a good healthy choice for her.

    Saturday morning is a great time to dine inside or outside under the covered patio. The service was quick to bring beverages and take our food order. I thought that it is strange that they served Iced coffee that is caffeinated, but if you want decaf iced coffee, they bring it hot with a tall glass of ice. The breakfast tacos were filled with fresh avocado slices on top and the Frittata was filled with fresh veggies. I like the non-traditional salad greens as a side dish. The restaurant interior is really nice with a feeling of old time nostalgia. The later the morning the more crowded the place gets but luckily there is plenty of parking.

    Avocado Toast $13.99, very pricey for such a simple dish, but it was good.

    Took our out-of-town guests here for breakfast and all 4 of us had a great meal. I always regret not getting/remembering the server's name when we have great service .... our guy was excellent. Pricey, but we did get a couple of free specialty drinks (Morning Meditation).

    Double Crunch Breakfast Taco

    First time to this location! I love how it's nice and bright inside ! I got the Double crunch breakfast taco and morning meditation juice, both were good! The bf got the Floridian French toast and chicken sausage, he loved both! Will definitely be going back

    We tried first watch because we were on the way to Whole Foods in the same parking lot. The food is okay, we spent way more than we expected. The service was very slow, no one seemed to know who was taking care of our table. It's a casual place with cute decor, and trendy options. I don't think we would ever go back. Just not worth the wait or the prices.

    French toast

    Havent been here in a year or so. Just landed from a redeye flight, craving food and this was our to go spot. Service was fast but in point. Everyone there was really nice! Coffee was american, really light, not too strong tbh. My trifecta is can say the best scrambled eggs, not too dry, cheesy and perfectly seasoned. Biggest pancake i've ever seen but so good!! Sister had the french toast and scrambled eggs, crunchy and flavorful! We got there at 7:50 so it was really calm, clean and no noise. I might be cheating on my fast food breakfast places for this one!!

    Our experience was a little to be desired. I did the 'check in' ahead - and when I got there and checked in they told me they would clean up the tables - I waited and waited. Finally, I had to ask someone else to help me because it wasn't happening. The food was a bit slow to arrive - a variety of pancakes, egg whites with turkey, bacon and more. The coffee was in a carafe so there was plenty of it! We took home some of the eggs and the hash browns! Very large portions.

    DO NOT ORDER THE PESTO Pesto Chicken Quinoa Bowl

    This is the Pesto Chicken Quinoa Bowl and I only ordered this because the server said "it is phenomenal". It was not to say the least the plate smelled like soap and typically I order something else but today I left the establishment still hungry. Also the glass container of water that was left on the table it had leftover residue on the inside of the glass and in the water itself. There were other things that weren't great for me like the side of bacon I ordered was cold, the biscuits and gravy was very water downed.

    Soup of the day: Vegetable. Mom didn't like
    Arielle M.

    Don't waste your time at the Delray Beach location. My mother and I came in for lunch. It wasn't overly busy and there were restaurant staff running around all over the dining room, but we had to seat ourselves and we had to wait a while between being greeted and ordering our food. I had to get up several times to flag down waitstaff. Mom kept it simple and weird with Soup of the day, which was vegetable soup, and cheesy grits. She didn't like and didn't finish the soup. The grits she liked. The baked cheese on top is a new way for me, reminded me of French onion soup, but looked good. I had a club sandwich. A club ALWAYS has bacon in it. If it doesn't then it's just a turkey sandwich. Someone in the kitchen here needs to either slow down or take a lesson, bc my bacon was missing. After flagging the waitress down (again). I was given 3 cold slices of bacon to add to my sandwich. The club came with either fries or a salad. What I didn't expect was a pile of the same exact greens used inside the sandwich to be sitting dressed next to the sandwich as well. No onion or tomato or carrots- absolutely nothing. I'm surprised that they would serve this with the sandwich, considering the salad is already inside the sandwich. Wasn't what I was expecting and really wish that they would've put a little more thought into that side salad. I haven't had the best experiences at this FW or the Boca so I probably won't come back

They are always pretty busy, so make a reservation before you come in; however there is bar seating. It's worth the wait. We were able to order our coffees while we were waiting. I ordered the Cinnamon Mocha Latte iced, and it was delicious and not too sweet. My husband ordered the Chaga-Cinno. It is made from Chaga mushrooms and very healthy. He enjoyed it and said there was no bitterness to it. We were seated at a booth after a relatively short wait. They were even seat cushions for back Support, which is always nice. Our server was Aly. She was very sweet and patient while we were deciding on our food choices. I ordered the Lotus Flower Bomb breakfast with a side of bacon, and my husband ordered the Keto breakfast. The presentation of the food on the cutting boards is nice. I enjoyed my meal. The savory flavor of the eggs and bacon paired well with the sweetness of the Banana Nutella toast. The portions are a good size and very filling. We will definitely be back again.

However, each parking space is assigned to a business. There are way too little spaces for the size of Modern Rose. I parked in one of the pizza spots and watched my car hoping it wouldn't be towed. As a couple gals were leaving, I followed them out and was able to move my car into a Modern Rose assigned space. Now I could relax with coffee and lunch. Inside, there is a room with a counter/bar, a midsection with booths -- where we sat, tables against the window, and a cozy back room. We had very good service throughout. The gal made suggestions and was patient with our ordering. And everything was delivered correctly. And we weren't rushed. We were able to sit and chat and catch up. I got a decaf cappuccino hot. It was very good. My friend got a cinnamon specialty tea with whipped cream -- I didn't catch the actual name. It looked amazing. She liked it, but felt there should be a touch more cinnamon flavor. We shared their classic Rose (toast) flight. It was delicious. They were nice enough to cut each piece in half and provide us with extra plates. My favorite was the "Just Keep swimming" -- avocado toast with salmon followed by the Venetian with prosciutto and mozzarella. The spicy one had a touch too many chili flakes for me. The everything seasoning is a welcome addition to each avocado toast version. The decor is lovely as are the plates and chinaware. It was surprising to learn that this is now the only location here in South Florida as we'd previously enjoyed their Deerfield beach, Fort Lauderdale, and Hollywood locations in the past. We both were pretty full, but had eyed their gorgeous cakes displayed on the counter. The coconut cake looked especially appealing. Maybe next time!

She is literally the nicest person I've ever met and has literally been involved in almost every single progressive cause since I met her back at Columbia. She's hosted interfaith events with Christians and Muslims and Sikhs, worked on homelessness, even was recognized by the White House 2x for her work on homeless students by both Obama's DOE and Trump's DOE, has donated multiple summers time to work with predominately POC communities in Harlem, and we've even volunteered doing hundreds of hours of pro-LGBT activism to help genderqueer and trans people get equal rights at Columbia. But why was she banned? The owner wouldn't tell her. But she did mention that she made (according to the owner) "racial and religious" remarks and said that "we don't talk about those issues here." What racial comments? She's half Latino and one of her adoptive families is Arab/Indian. Nobody in my life, past 10 years, has said she's said anything even mildly offensive. This is why I'm so confused. She also said multiple other people complained about her. What could my 29-yo autistic friend say that was SO offensive to adults in Floridda that they felt they all had to report her? I hope we will find out in the coming weeks as we work with local rabbis and other business officials with the city. Thankfully the person who overheard Esta is coming with me to meet my rabbi in Boca and a discrimination official in two days days and we are going to see what we can do with the recording we have. Sadly, this comes down the human decency. My friend is distraught and is so sad she/we can't come back to the bar. She doesn't want trouble, she just wants to know what she did wrong. As an advocate for the neurodivergent community and my friend of many years, this to me is unacceptable. Please read up on neurodivergent kids and the struggles they face making friends and not accidently being offensive. If she really said anything offensive to someone's face, why not just pull her aside and explain why? Why wait till multiple people complain and then ban her? Not everyone is neurotypical and how is she supposed to fix her alleged behavior if she doesn't know what's wrong. This is really sad because she's been through so many years of therapy since college to even be able to talk in public and now she feels like she should hide. But I will not be taking my business here anymore. And I will be telling all the Jewish and Neurodivergent groups in Boca Delray and Pompano. It sucks because your green apple kratoms are so good. And the new cake is pretty good too. I really don't know what to make of this. After knowing her for almost 10 years and seeing her struggle to make friends, it's almost unimaginable that she would ever intentionally say something negative to someone's face and mean it. She is horrified that she may have offended someone and is traumatized by the whole thing. And you can't even tell her what she did wrong?

This is the first location of The Seed that I've been to, so I'm not sure how other locations compare, but this one was pretty small in general with limited seating inside. Luckily my fiancé and I got there while it was empty, so we were able to choose two of the four bar seats along the wall across from the counter. I had a latte with almond milk and house-made lavender syrup, and we each had a classic croissant sandwich. Latte with house-made lavender syrup: I really enjoyed this. My fiancé described this as a "mix of coffee and tea", which I think was fitting. The lavender syrup sweetened the coffee with light floral notes and the latte was a great balance between herbal, floral, and creamy overall. Classic croissant sandwich: The egg patty was pretty thick, I'd say just under a 1/2" thick. It was packed with bacon and cheese, and the sandwich was toasted the way I liked. The croissant was buttery and flakey, and overall I enjoyed the sandwich. There wasn't anything unique about the sandwich though, it was just a solid breakfast croissant sandwich that was made well. No special sauces or other ingredients. I guess that's why it's the classic. The staff was nice and pleasant, and our food and drinks were made in a reasonable amount of time. I do think the food and drink were a bit overpriced for what it was (our bill was ~$40 for two sandwiches and two drinks), but they say the ingredients are all locally sourced so I'm assuming that's why. Overall, this was a great experience and I'd certainly choose this The Seed over a larger chain coffee shop. Just know that the dollars can add up quickly here!
