    Smoked Salmon Benedict with mix greens
    Maggie M.

    Came on a Sunday before noon and the wait time was 20-30mins. So we decided to sit at the bar, we were lucky there were 3 spots available for us inside. They have seating at the bar inside and outside on the patio. We shared the Blackberry sangria, which was light and refreshing. Wasn't strong in alcohol so it was great to have for breakfast. There was enough for all of us to have about 2 glasses. Had the Smoked Salmon Benedict with mixed greens. The eggs were poached perfectly and the yolk oozed out when cut in half. Had a good amount of salmon for each bite. The mixed greens were fresh and the lemon dressing was very light. Think it would be better with just a little bit more dressing. Then we take the check and pay up front at the cashier. They can split the payment at the register or choose by seat.

    7:30 am on a Tuesday. Only a few tables seated. Had a coupon for a free birthday entree. Excellent service by Melanie. Had the Rustica Fritatta made with egg whites. Cremini mushrooms, sweet onions, sun-dried tomatoes, and kale. Served with organic greens, lightly dressed, and toast. Hubby had the traditional breakfast: eggs, potatoes, chicken sausage, and toast. Delicious coffee--urn left on the table. $42 before discount or tip.

    Had brunch here with my daughter today and we both loved our hash bowls. Fresh ingredients and flavorful combinations. Nice atmosphere, comfortable seating & the service was good. Great menu. We definitely will be back.

    Eggs

    I went here with my dad for a bruch and let me tell you, it was amazing. We orderd this Kale drink and its not some gross drink you would get at some low quality restaurant. It was honestly the best drink I ever had thatvwas healthy. For my food I ordered pancakes and eggs. Now I could not even finish half the pancake it was so big, and the eggs. Dont even get me started. I can not leave this place without getting eggs. 100% 5 stars!

    Grits

    Excellent breakfast plate. I got the traditional with fluffy eggs, chicken apple sausage, whole wheat toast which came with home fried potatoes. I also ordered the grits. It was filling the service via UberEats was sufficient and timely. Customer service was great. ​

    The food exactly as it came. Unopened, I haven't started to eat it. 16 dollars.

    What is this portion??? And they didn't include the bread... thanks for the jam? I also got a morning meditation drink which was really good! Sad that this is the to go portion since I do love dining in.

    We had a yummy breakfast here today. The food was very yummy, definitely recommend the bacado omelet and BLTE sandwich. The vibe is really nice, perfect for a relaxed morning. Service was okay, not super fast but still friendly. We ordered the kale tonic and purple haze. Both was super refreshing and felt so healthy LOL. Overall, it's a great spot to start the day!

    First Watch is always a solid win. The food is consistently great - super fresh, flavorful, and served in portions that actually feel worth it. Everything comes out bright and well-made, whether it's a brunch classic or something a little more on the healthier side. The vibe is relaxed, service is reliable, and it's the kind of place you leave already planning your next visit. I'll definitely be back!

    Soft opening First watch was paying for your meal! What a generous treat. The service was in point and the food and Kale Tonic was a hit! I will definitely be back.

    Salmon Eggs Benedict
    Kate K.

    I was excited to try First Watch after all the rave reviews. And while the atmosphere and service were great, the food was underwhelming. My eggs Benedict was hard boiled it was so overcooked and I found a small hair in it. The rest of our entrees were just ok while the price was $$$$ - with all the amazing breakfast diners around, we probably won't go back to First Watch.

    I treated my mother in law to breakfast at this new location and it did not disappoint! We were greeted and seated immediately. Our server, Jay, was not only friendly, but knowledgeable. She made great suggestions for us and took great care of us. The food was amazing. I had the avocado toast and the million dollar bacon. Soooo good! Highly recommend!

    Waited for an hour on 7/13 our order still has not been taken. Waitlist time is inaccurate and it is very unorganized.

    This is our 2nd time here and once again the service was spectacular…read more Our waitress was very attentive and Friendly also. We sat in a corner booth area which was perfect for us because we have a very active 1 year old plus diaper bag, car seat etc.. it was spacious and perfect for our size family. The food was very very tasty! I will include pictures in my review so you can see for yourselves. My daughter said her pancake and eggs were so fluffy and delicious ^-^ and her bacon the perfect crispness. My chilaquiles were the perfect amount of mild spiciness. I am glad I chose the red sauce over the green because they were Delicious!! They come with a side of rice and beans that tasted very authentic also. The avocado was the perfect ripeness and so creamy! My husband's house potatoes and biscuits and gravy were also great. He really liked the gravy and asked for a side of it because he likes extra gravy on his biscuits. We also ordered the Nutella crepes and they tasted pretty good. They had a hint of cinnamon in the crepe mix so keep that in mind, next time I think we will ask to exclude it now that we know. Still they were very good We will for sure be back again!

    This place was okay…read more The side of pancakes were good. Soft and fluffy I got the house burrito with egg whites and was not a fan. Very bland. My husband got the steak skillet. I would recommend getting this without potatoes they were under cooked and very hard.

    3.5 stars, but rounded up because I didn't feel they deserved any deduction…read more I was REALLY looking forward to their #20 Old New Yorker, which I got in their Navel Cut pastrami. It was a solid 7, which is why I place it at 3.5 stars. I may be being picky here but it just wasn't to the level of "melt-in-your-mouth" pastrami standards for me. Not to say it wasn't good, because it was perfectly fine. In fact, it's better than most of the pastrami sandwiches I tried in Chicagoland. Maybe it's the fact that I had to bring it back to the office to eat it, and half hour had gone by and pastrami weren't as warm and the Jewish rye had become soggy by the time I took the first bite. I mean, it goes without saying that the sandwich would have been 3 times better had I sat down immediately and had it. Again, all things considered, it was a perfectly good sandwich. One interesting thing was that I had never been to an establishment that included a half sour pickle instead of a normal one and gotta say, I was pleasantly surprised. Pickles can be a hit or a miss for me. I like my pickles to be crunch, but some places offer overripened ones that become borderline mushy. Schmaltz's half sour pickle was not overly salty or sour, making it very attractive for me. The more I'm thinking about it, I'm convinced that I'll have to go back and try their #14 Sloppy Paul, which is the corned beef with sauerkraut, which is another favorite of mine. And this time, I'll be sure to dine in and give another review of it to see how much I like them better.

    Thursday @ 5:30. Immediately greeted and seated. You can either place an order at the counter, OR…read moreyou can be seated for service. We chose the latter. Dustin, our server, was amazing. Lots of fun deli sandwiches to choose from. I chose a French Dip; hubby had a pick two-- a cup of matzo ball soup, and 1/2 corned beef sandwich. Both served with a whole new pickle. Mine was absolutely delicious. Tons of beef, melty swiss, and grilled onion. Served nice and hot with a tasty au jus. Hubby thoroughly enjoyed his as well. Great Jewish deli. Highly recommend whether you're Jewish or not! ;)
