    Food was excellent per usual. I got lunch this time and had the Toast beef sandwich and broccoli cheese soup. The sandwich was fantastic - took half of it home. The soup was okay - more cheesy than broccoli. Our service was great as well. This is probably our favorite first watch location.

    After being a regular, I've seen lipstick on my cup more than twice. These cups are not cleaned properly. Plus, the silverware did not look clean... This time I got sick and a cold sore. I will NOT be returning. With all the germs, they NEED TO RETHINK the way they clean their dishes...........

    BLTE with Grits

    The food was really enjoyable, my only dislike is the Grits... They were a bit soggy. The service is Pretty good, My Host was asking for refills and was nice. It is Quite except for the other guests talking. They have low volume music playing

    I'm so sorry, I usually love First Watch but when the cooks decide to rush and burn an omelette it becomes extremely rubbery and probably one of the worst ways to eat eggs. It's happened many times here unfortunately. Please don't rush your omelettes! It becomes inedible and just a waste of money.

    I have always LOVED first watch! It's my favorite spot to meet friends for brunch or to go to breakfast with my mom when we're off school/work. Everything I've had here is so delicious and the wait staff is always the kindest! The vibes and ambiance are incredible and this is definitely the best First Watch location I have been to. I highly recommend the pancakes and any of the egg hashes or omelets! My mom and I love to share a pancake and a savory dish which is always the perfect combo!

    I don't know, I have mixed feelings about first watch. I've been told that I need to try this place by so many people so many times. My first time, it was a little bit of a letdown. Service was great. AC was not working. Food was just ok. Will try another location again.

    Tri-fecta breakfast

    First Watch is back on top! Had a wonderful time and delicious brunch with my guy. The restaurant & staff were very busy and everything came out perfectly. Our server was attentive, professional and proficient. All of the the staff is friendly. I enjoyed the Roast Beef & Havarti from the sandwich section. It's a delectable - roast beef, horseradish havarti, house- roasted onions and tomatoes with lemon dressed arugula on parmesan-crusted sourdough bread. Horseradish sauce was served on the side. I decided on the tomato basil soup as my side which was a good decision. My guy ordered the Tri-fecta which is considered a classic favorite. He cage-free eggs were perfectly soft scrambled and the bacon was crispy. The Belgium waffle was the star of the show with a side of the pomegranate sauce. Free on-site parking with easy on-and-out access.

    We stopped in one day while on errands, and enjoyed brunch very much. I had The traditional, Bacon, eggs, seasoned home fries, and toast. This was absolutely delicious everything was cooked to order, the home fries could not have been any better very nicely seasoned. My bride chose the trifecta. Two eggs, sausage, and A very large pancake, of which you can add blueberries, bananas, etc. she enjoyed her meal very much, although she could not finish the pancake (rookie). Server Brandon was excellent checking in on us frequently. The decor of the restaurant is very interesting and Eye appealing. We highly recommend.

    This right here is the Floridian absolutely delicious

We walked in and were told to sit wherever we wanted, we chose the window seats. Hahahaha! I ordered the Locals Favorite and my guest ordered the Salmons Benedict we shared the Chicken and waffles. The service was great, our server was great too! We asked about real maple syrup and she actually tracked down a bottle, I couldn't believe it! ( Pictured) The Local Favorite was excellent! The crab cake was perfectly seasoned, the English muffin was toasted perfectly and the hollandaise sauce was also perfect. The cheesy grits were good as well! I was pleasantly surprised to say the least. My guest also loved her meal, ( Salmon Benedict) the salmon was perfectly done without being dry, the eggs were a little beyond poached but that's okay. The home fried potatoes were golden brown and an excellent addition to the meal. The ambiance is super chill which is surprising considering how good the food is. The chicken and waffles were exceptional as well. The four chicken strips with tender, juicy and well seasoned placed on top of the golden brown waffle which was crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The butter and maple syrup was butter made this waffle an 8/10.

The completely forgot about the first 2. Long line so figured it's probably good and looking at reviews thought it would be worth the wait. 45 minutes wait in line. They were completely overwhelmed and lady who took my order (BTW, I'm a very heterosexual man, but there are a lot of kids around and if you're going to lean forward to take orders, how about wearing a shirt that doesn't let me see down to your belly button and all the things you stuff in your bra, such as lighters, etc.) got very snappy with everyone. As you can see from video I posted where I asked people how long they had been waiting, it was over 2 HOURS for most. At that point, all of us should have had our food refunded or at least some type of discount, but nope. Never offered. After an hour, when I went and asked the woman who took my order how long it would take, she said "in a while. I don't know. We're busy". Guess what. That's your JOB to know. They never gave anyone a receipt, just asked us to give them our names, and when we would ask how long it would be, they asked for our name and then asked what we ordered. Seriously? IT SHOULD BE ON THE TICKET WITH THE NAME I JUST GAVE YOU!!! FYI, I gave them the name "YO" to make it easy to remember but apparently, it was too difficult. There were over 30 people waiting and the crowd was getting angry!!! Finally, another woman showed up that got things moving. Whoever you are in the red shirt, thank you! I think we'd still be waiting if it wasn't for you. You should have been there an hour before then. Now the food. Remember the easy to eat part? Obviously it's a food truck, so no crab pliers given. The other food truck actually cracked them before serving them so people could just peel them open. Nothing done here so it was impossible to eat (big crab legs were easier but still not ideal). Had to take them home to eat which defeats the purpose of a food truck. The blue crabs had almost no meat in them. Complete waste of money. The crab legs were actually big and at least tasted good which is why it's 2 stars and not one. Based on the service alone and lack of care to try to make things right with customers, I'm leery to even go to their physical location. Too much competition around to not take care of customers the way they should. Very disappointing and had such high hopes.

The restaurant is located behind the German club on 66th Street, a second business in the German club parking lot! Apparently, the family that has his place is from Maine and they got a lot of success brewing beer. That's success led them to start the restaurant serving seafood from a family business in Maine. We started off with a bowl of New England clam chowder and a dozen oysters. To what are whistles we got a glass of their tap Chardonnay and a beer. My wife's Chardonnay was ridiculously good! But nothing could beat those oysters - sweet with a little bit of brine, and very fresh. For dinner we got a lobster roll - they come hot or cold, with the hot coming with melted butter. We also got the fried haddock roll.... Wow! Both were fantastic! I know we overdid it with dinner.... We even got an order of the whole belly clams. I didn't think anyone in Florida served those down here! Absolutely ridiculous . In short, we had fantastic dinner and terrific beverages. I really recommend you at least try to find the place - we almost didn't go in because of its awkward location and the fact that no cars were outside. We saw the place was open and decided to have a appetizer because the Yelp review was so strong, and I'm glad we did! I told the two people there they should park their cars nearby so patrons would see them..... Anyway, I'm going back again, but this time I'm bringing friends!

We started with the calamari, which was perfectly crisp on the outside, tender on the inside, and served with two delicious dipping sauces. It disappeared quickly! For our entrées, the coconut shrimp was outstanding. The shrimp were large, coated in a crunchy toasted coconut breading, and paired perfectly with the orange blossom honey marmalade. The creamy garlic mashed potatoes, grilled asparagus, and roasted tomatoes rounded out a delicious plate. We also ordered the crab cakes, which were packed with lump crab meat, perfectly seared, and complemented by the Creole mustard aioli. Our kids were just as impressed! The kids' fish and chips meal came with a surprisingly generous portion of flaky fish, crispy fries, and fresh fruit, making it an excellent value. Our other child ordered the adult cheeseburger entrée and couldn't stop talking about how amazing it was. It was thick, juicy, perfectly cooked, topped with melted cheddar, and served on a soft bun with crisp lettuce and tomato. Every dish was beautifully presented, fresh, and full of flavor. Combined with the relaxing outdoor atmosphere and exceptional service, Guppy's delivered a fantastic dining experience.
