    Healthy bowl
    Peter K.

    Great breakfast, in FL. Bustling and energetic dining room. Busy but not packed. Got trifecta and a health bowl. On recommendation I got the waffles, and OMG it was good. Not cheap but good quality. Everything was good.

    This spot is quality and the service is friendly and attentive--two things that can be rare these days! We're traveling through Fort Lauderdale so it was nice to find something this pleasing on a quick stop. I ordered the avocado toast, which is a personal go-to, and it did not disappoint! Well prepped, perfect taste of lemon and well seasoned. Lovely thick grain toast. And some fried medium eggs. Perfect portion for size for some protein and healthy fats. Hubs had the omelet (see pics). Enjoyed ourselves some specialty drinks too.

    Tried this seasonal dish and it was really good an very filling. I would have preferred the bananas were sautéed in butter to soften them up a bit. But the combo was good non the less. I had the chicken patties as well and they were just ok.... I should've just did the million dollar bacon. Service as always is on point. I love that the waiters open the door for you. And the ambiance is always pleasant.

    Early breakfast, always a great experience, we were sat down quickly. Coffee was brought to the table right away and our food order was taken. Waitress was very nice and friendly. Highly recommend this location. Menu has many options both healthy and your typical breakfast fare.

    Needed breakfast after the gym and I had been craving thier pancakes. Our server was kind and honest in her opinions which made my decision easier. We sat outside which is always my first option and it was quiet and not to busy. Our food came out quick and hot. I left feeling stuffed because I could not stop eating.

    Food was made fresh to order! Service was outstanding, very attentive, and recommends what to eat ! They also have a summer menu! Will definitely come back to try one of the summer foods. The environment is super chill, you can go on a date, a solo date, or just a good run for your cravings!

    Loaded omelette with toast and potatoes
    Patt G.

    We had breakfast here this morning and it was okay. Not great but not bad. My omelette came with ham, sausage, cheese and tomatoes and topped with sour cream. The potatoes were okay. I didn't eat much of them. I would have preferred two slices of toast and no potatoes but I didn't know I was only getting one slice. All-in-all it was okay, but nothing better than that.

    We came here on our way to the park and it was ok but not the best. They had no cleaned silverware so we had to use plastic which was ok but not ideal for cutting anything. My potato's were burnt on one side but the sandwich was good, I wish I could have cut it in half.... My daughter really loved the waffle as it had a hint of cinnamon. The drink I ordered was also good but they gave me water in a kids cup because they didn't have clean glasses when I ordered water. Our waitress was nice and the food was ok but I think they may need to hire someone to help clean up. I'd come back to try again another day.

    Not all are created equal but this one is pretty solid. This First Watch is located a in relatively small plaza on Commercial Blvd. parking can be tight depending on day/time. It's bright and clean with a rustic decor. I've ordered takeout twice for pick-up orders and twice on doordash. All four times the food was packaged well (sturdy containers, utensils, syrups, etc.) fresh and delicious. The service when I picked up my takeout, both times was friendly, helpful & efficient. Would definitely order from this location again. Giving them a four because I haven't dined in yet.

    I went to this restaurant for breakfast and it was so delicious. The parking is free but very limited around breakfast time on The Weekends. I ate the trifecta which includes bacon, waffle or pancakes and with eggs. I substituted the bacon with the million dollar bacon which are my fave. It is an up charge but it is delicious. I loved the food but because the restaurant was busy I had to wait to get served and get my food. Overall an amazing experience.

    That disgusting hair

    Worst experience ever at this First Watch. They completely screwed up my order -- I asked for the Tri-Athlete with chorizo and avocado and they didn't bother to add either. I drove back expecting them to fix their mistake, but instead of remaking the meal fresh, they just dumped the missing stuff into little containers like I'm supposed to fix it myself. Unbelievable. Then, to top it all off, as I'm eating I find a HAIR stuck to the bottom of the to-go plate. Absolutely disgusting. This place clearly doesn't care about customers, doesn't care about quality, and definitely doesn't care about cleanliness. I wouldn't recommend this location to anyone, and I'll never waste my money here again.

    Whether you live nearby or not, I would say that it is worth coming to Burtons Grill. I've been…read morehere twice and left with a happy belly full of delicious sensibly made food. Both visits were for birthdays---the first was mine, when I happened to mention to our server that we were celebrating my birthday and she helped make the experience great. She then exclaimed, "You should have told me it was your birthday! We'll give you a dessert. Would you like to take it home?" Which I did, and the Seven Layer Chocolate Cake was thoroughly enjoyed for breakfast on two different days. I still can't get over the fudge layers in the sponge sandwiched by a light, creamy chocolate mousse. The plated cake was much cuter and better dressed with surrounding raspberry sauce instead of it being in a takeout cup, but the divine tastes of that cake are unchanged. Seeing that the majority of their locations are in the north, with the southernmost locations before Florida being Virginia and South Carolina, I feel lucky that we have a location in South Florida (and a second in Boca Raton). The hostesses are friendly, as well as the servers, and each one asks about allergies in the party. I saw on their website that they have a commitment to accommodating food allergies and a protocol for communicating allergies to the staff and kitchen. The most recent visit started with us repeating allergies to our server after telling our hostess, as he wasn't informed of them. It never hurts to confirm that everyone is on the same page but it was a little odd. I'm not sure what those purple allergy cards are supposed to do if they're not written on. However, like I mentioned, they are really serious about food allergies. When we were placing orders, our server would tell us whether there were allergens in the dishes we mentioned. Our server during my first visit even went back to the kitchen to check whether there were eggs in a sauce that were in one of the dishes we were interested in, without being asked. The inside is clean, beautiful and well lit, and the bar is spacious with plenty of screens if you're able to make it in for their happy hour at the bar from 3-6 PM on Mondays-Fridays. We had the guacamole and chips ($9), which had a surprisingly generous portion of genuine guacamole to the point where we ate all of the white and blue tortilla chips that came with it. I asked our bartender if we could get more chips by any chance, and another bartender heard and went straight to the kitchen and came out with a bowl of warmed tortilla chips. I had an Old Fashioned, which was slightly sweeter than I'm used to, but still having great citrus aromas. I recommend having a cocktail on happy hour as they are typically $15-17 on the regular menu while they are $10 during happy hour. For dinner during my second visit, we were seated in a lounge appearing area to the left of the entrance with long couches for the booth seats and an unfinished cut of wood table. Let me tell you about the food before I run out of space! Bread service: I know it's weird to have to pay for bread, but that's the restaurant world we live in. It's worth the $5 to get warm, fluffy bread dressed with everything seasoning and coming with herbed butter, pesto and an olive tapenade, all a choose-your-own-bread-adventure sampler. You can tell nothing on the plate came out of a jar. Philly cheesesteak rolls: Everyone can eat all 3 of the rolls that come in this dish along with the crispy onion rings that come on top of them. Resist the urge and share the tender beef and gooey cheese inside of these rolls. NY strip: Tender, well grilled and seasoned, accompanied by tasty green beans and mashed potatoes made with just the right amount of butter where you taste more potato than butter or cream. Crab crusted haddock: A generous portion of flaky, slightly buttery haddock with an aromatic crab cake on top. We loved the jasmine rice that came with it, from the degree of cooked to a little oil covering. Lobster roll: It was a summer limited item until August 31, and I'm sorry to say it was perfectly buttered, toasted and brimming with plump lobster meat. You were able to get it cold with a cole slaw, but a hot roll is definitely the move. Did I convince you to go try their food? If not, read this again. I'll see you there.

We came after a busy morning at the beach and I was craving something fresh. After a quick search on Yelp, I found Naked Farmer and was reminded that we were super close to it. It's fairly close to Sawgrass Mills mall and is in a plaza with a good amount of parking. Although the outside seems small, the space inside is pretty long and has a good amount of seating. The servining is "chipotle-style" where you order your food and customize it how you want it and pay at the register at the end. I shared a bowl with my partner and we got half rice and half greens, some toppings, and the chicken thigh. This was a good amount for us to share and it was delicious! We also tried their date cake and my partner was a huge fan of it. I loved how clean the inside was and how nice all the staff was. They had water cups for self service and it was cold even without ice, which I loved! When you're done with your food, you put them away in a cabinet which is constantly cleaned out by staff which helped give the space a clean aesthetic. Very thought through and intentional on their behalf. Loved Naked Farmer and would definitely get again if I'm in the area or craving something fresh!

And the place is brightly lit and seems to be really clean. On this day, I decided to try the roasted chicken. I believe it was supposed to have some type of rosemary on it. I'm not sure what's going on these days but it seems like most places are cooking chicken when it's still frozen. It just had that cooked from frozen texture to it. It was tough and bland. I tried the macaroni and cheese, which I did like and the carrots, which I also did like, both solid sides something I would get again. I was able to get the kale Caesar with my plate, which I thought was excellent. It had the right amount of dressing on it. I do plan on returning to try the salmon. Hopefully I have a better experience with that.
