    I came in for brunch on a weekday after Christmas. I made sure I got in line on the website to reduce our wait. We were greeted as soon as we walked in the door and seated. It took about 5 minutes for our server to acknowledge us but after that our server was very attentive. I ordered the BLT benedict minus the T with the millionaire loaded potatoes. My dad ordered also the BLT bendedict and my son was wanting something simple, a bacon omelette, no cheese and potatoes. Our food arrived about 15 minutes after ordering. Everything tasted wonderful, I loved my benedict and the potatoes were amazing. My dad loved his as well and my son devoured his omelette. The only thing was he wasn't asked about an option for toast so they brought him a whole grain wheat of some sort that he did not care for. Our coffee and soda were refilled consistently and we were offered drinks to go as well. When it came time to pay, I had a couple gift cards so I went to the front and asked to pay there and the manger gladly helped me. We really had a great meal at this location of First Watch and can't wait to visit again.

    First time to First Watch in Florida. Heather was our server. The superfood bowl was delish. Almost the same as the one I meal prep every morning. The million dollar bacon was delish! The best was morning meditation. All the food was delish. Heather was on point and very informative.

    Frittata Rustica

    First time dining at this location. The inside dining g area is set up well, lots of room and doesn't feel as crowded as some locations. Large outside patio seating that is shaded as well. After my initial disappointment to find my favorite Morning Market Veg omelette was not on the menu, I decided to try something new. The frittata was really good and I was happy to find another breakfast item I enjoy. I was a bit disappointed in my typical side of turkey sausage, which have always been sausage patties when I order them. Not a fan of links, just okay. Service was fantastic, we had all the water and coffee we needed throughout our meal.

    I've been to the Phoebix locations and glad that my daughter wanted to take me here. She dines at this restaurant quite often. The decor is consistent compared to other locations. As far as service, I can't remember her name, but she was definitely nice. All the time my daughter dines here, she was her server. Great service all around. Food: Million Dollar Bacon French Toast I'm not sure what my daughter ordered, but it was delicious. The syrup is served warm, and I always love the French Toast. It's so basic but so good. Overall, it's a great spot to dine at.

    We love First Watch! Everything we've ever gotten here has always been great and fresh! We love the sandwiches, salads and Farmhouse Hash. Service is always friendly and fast. We sat outside today on the patio and it was nice with a slight breeze. We definitely recommend First Watch! Today was our granddaughter's first time at First Watch and she can't wait to go back!

We ordered a board as an appetizer and waited close to 35 minutes for it before our server realized she never rang it up. We were upset as we wanted something to snack on as we waited for our meal.

The food was great, but it took a while to get our food. It didnt seem to be busy, yet they where slow. Im sure if we had our appetizer, we wouldnt have noticed the 45 minute wait.

One in our party had a honey chicken rice bowl - one of their special items is their rice bowls & have a variety.

Very nice inside dining area that's been updated. Not overly crowded. It was very clean & all staff were attentive & friendly. Tough parking situation. We found it nice to park a block up the street & walk. Such a beautiful & safe neighborhood.

We've worked our way through the menu--from fresh, vibrant salads and flavorful appetizers to perfectly prepared pastas and beautifully crafted signature cocktails--and every dish has been consistently outstanding.

The staff is attentive, welcoming, and genuinely invested in creating a great dining experience without ever feeling intrusive.

They were able to get me a seat outside fairly quickly but it did take awhile for the waitress to come take the order. I ordered an old fashion which was delicious (the ice cube is so cute with their name engraved on it), but the prices were more than what they put on the website. I ordered the garbanzo beans bolognese, it was pretty good but kind of lacking the flavor (I would have wanted a bit more flavor, or add in a bit more salt and pepper). The server was very sweet and efficient. I was able to get in and out in less than an hour. Overall it's a cute place to hangout and grab a drink, but definitely make sure to have a reservation as they are always busy & keep in mind the place can get really loud sometimes.

We came in on a Wednesday evening. We asked about the menu and were told at the counter that it was Wing Wednesday and the wings were $1 each. Well how could we not add those onto our order. We ordered a Burnt Ends platter with mac and cheese, and corn nuggets, a Brisket Platter with corn nuggets and beans. We also ordered a large mac for my son and a side of lean brisket. For the wings we ordered the Cajun ranch. Our food started coming out in about 5 minutes. Firstly, I was shocked at the wings. I love wings, but they aren't something I usually order often as I find them just OK. There are only a couple places that I visit specifically for wings. Well, let me tell you, I would make a visit back just for these wings. OMG, the Cajun ranch was simply amazing, really addictive. They were my favorite item. We devoured them. The burnt ends were very good. I appreciate they are big chunks of brisket with no pull pork filler. The flavor was amazing as well and the bits of fat melted in our mouth. The corn nuggets were fine and the Mac N Cheese was quite tasty. We enjoyed the meal so much, were were trying to figure out somewhere for a family lunch the next Sunday and came back again. This time my sister, son and I brought my dad. We of course ordered more wings and burnt ends and brisket with lots of Mac N Cheese. The food really is something special. The wings are absolutely wonderful and the burnt ends are a hit. This is definitely one of my new favorite restaurants and will always be on my list of visits to enjoy when I come back to Jax.
