Terrible Experience: Overcharged and No Accountability I had a very disappointing experience at First Watch Restaurant in Miami Gardens. I visited the restaurant with my family and, when finished, tried to pay using the QR code in the check with Apple Pay. I tried twice, but the payment didn't go through, so I went to the cashier and paid there. After I left, some hours later I received an alert on my bank account about the charge and saw that I was charged three times for the same order due to a glitch on their end. When I went personally to the restaurant to resolve the issue, they refused to reimburse me, claiming that their website caused the error and was "out of their hands." This is completely unacceptable. A business should take responsibility for issues caused by its systems, not pass the blame onto the customer. After multiple attempts to resolve it, I was left frustrated and out of pocket for charges I never authorized. To make matters worse, the staff was unhelpful and dismissive when I tried to explain the situation; they even told me that this was a common situation with clients paying by phone. I wonder how many clients have paid their checks more than once because they didn't check their accounts. The food was okay but not good enough to justify this kind of hassle. Save yourself the trouble and take your business elsewhere--a place that values its customers and takes responsibility for its mistakes. If you go, make sure not to pay through your phone. read more

First Watch - Yummy drinks - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - North Miami Beach, Florida

The food menu at this chain is pretty decent but this particular location was disappointing. I ordered my meal through Uber Eats since I wasn't feeling well. Unfortunately, biting into my sandwich, I pulled plastic out of my mouth from their negligence and no accountability on their part. The staffer who made the sandwich just put rhetorical entire prepackaged baggie in my sandwich. That's quite negligent on their part. No one reached out to me when I complained, not so impressed with the service. My friend who lives nearby warned me it had gone down hill. I learned my lesson. read more

Went to lhis location yesterday and ordered to go the turkey burger with seasoned potatoes and the chicken pesto power bowl.

This place and its management are trash. I placed an order via ubereats and for some reason it was continuously delayed for over an hour. When I finally got my driver on the phone they informed me that the order had been picked up according to the restaurant. Meanwhile the ubereats system showed the order still being prepared. When I explained this to the driver, the restaurant management accused me of lying and trying to get extra food. No one needs to lie about a $80 breakfast order. "This is what they do" were the exact words used. Not sure who "they" are, but that isn't the way you treat a paying customer. Another Manager then got on the phone and for the second time accused me of lying. This whole situation should be completely unacceptable for a company of this size. read more

My GO TO breakfast spot when that over hyped and over crowded brunch place is just too much to deal with after a long night out. First watch offers good breakfast and lunch choices made with fresh ingredients all with speedy and friendly service. Can't go wrong with their elevated egg sandwich and fresh squeezed OJ! Only downside is it gets very crowded so walk ins are almost unheard of, check in on Yelp for little to no wait time!! read more

What a huge disappointment. I ordered from Uber Eats this morning and was delivered ice cold food with no utensils or condiments. The customer service was awful. They said I could come there and exchange. I am on vacation without a car! Shall I pay another $30.00 for eggs bacon and home fries? I am 10 minutes away. They could have offered to at least bring me the condiments and utensils so I could actually try my meal. In the garbage. Never Again! read more

You can't go wrong here! The quality of food is worth the price! I will forever visit First Watch because of this: This happened at another First Watch location, Staff is excellent and thoughtful of their patrons, there was a veteran in a wheel chair and I witnessed between staff they put their tips together and paid this one veterans meal!!! He was having a difficult time. He was beyond grateful if this act of kindness For that I will always come to First Watch! I will always tip 30% in cash so that none of the CC fees dip into their tips. Also I bought those cook book and it's excellent folks!!

I've been coming for years and it's been pretty consistent. The food is always fresh and not overpriced. Last month, I got the Farm Stand Breakfast tacos and they were delicious. And it was only $10 bucks. 3 weeks ago, I stopped by again for breakfast and ordered The Works Omelet with egg whites which by the way they don't charge extra, unlike other chains. The omelet was pretty big too and came with seasoned potatoes. It was only around $11 bucks. Love their food here. From reading other reviews, not sure why they experienced bad service but I've never had an issue. The servers are always friendly and attentive. The food comes out fresh and hot and I'm in and out in less than an hour. Plus they give you your own carafe of fresh coffee. Sweet! read more

This was my first time coming to the Sky Lake location of First Watch. When my family and I walked in, we were greeted and taken to our table by the host who was very friendly; there was no wait. Shortly after we were greeted by our waitress who was very kind and knowledgeable of the menu. She gave us some great suggestions. We decided to try their Cinnamon Pecan Roll off their holiday "Wonder-Full" menu, and omg it's so rich with sweetness and tastiness, we couldn't stop eating it. I ordered my fav Frittata Rustica which never disappoints me. My family ordered the trifecta with French toast, and blueberry pancakes. This was their first time coming to First Watch, and they thoroughly enjoyed themselves and their meal to where they can't wait to come back again. I loved the promptness, friendliness, and professionalism shown at this location, so I will be coming back to this location. read more

Nicole and Karla greeted us immediately they were awesome. They got us sat as soon as they could. But kept us in the loop that they were extremely busy. Our server Tanya was perfect. She was patient gave wonderful recommendations and never rushed us. The food was delicious the restaurant was clean. Good did take a little while to come up but understandably so. They were packed. We also signed in online for a table and beat the rush. When it came time to pay Jasline was so quick efficient and super friendly! You guys have an all star staff. And yes the food and drink matched the service! We will definitely be back. read more

Get there early! We walked in before 10:00 a.m. and we were quickly seated within 5 minutes. The atmosphere is very loud and busy like a nightclub. Although they do not serve alcohol they do have some nice fresh pressed juices and coffees. The iced coffee was smooth and sweet. I decided to get one of their seasonal menu items for fall the truffle hash. The breakfast potatoes were diced although I thought they were going to be smaller or even like hash brown style. It was very good & I was happy I ordered toast with it. The food did take a while to come out however it was nice and hot when it did come. I was very satisfied with the kids orders of a chocolate chip pancake it was very large & came with their choice of meat (bacon). I will be honest I was surprised at the bill it was more expensive than I thought ($50 family of 4) but again the food was very good. read more

First Watch - Truffle hash: potatoes, bacon, eggs, cheese truffle sauce - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - North Miami Beach, Florida

First Watch is designed in the vien of many breakfast and meat and three joints through out the East Coast and South. The have succeded in not trying to be everything to everyone but offering a little something for everyone to enjoy. Frankly, if your diet is so pretentious and extreame that you can't find anything to eat here; maybe you should just get fitted for a saline drip. The menu is not massive like some long established breakfast/lunch spots but what they do have they do very well. I will say that on occasion, I have had a meal or two that didn't live up to the previous one. But even the mistakes were delicious. The staff is very friendly and attentive. The Whole Grain Pancakes are the size of my head; trust me that's a pretty big pancake. They offer several Egg Benedicts on the menu, I think I've had them all. Don't forget the million dollar bacon..it is worth a try; at least once. You'll find avocado toast, fruit bowls, juices and fresh greens. Lunch is just as good and healthy as breakfast. Sandwiches, Salads and Wraps round out the menu. Great coffee, atmosphere, and good food make First Watch a nice to meet for breakfast or lull away your lunch hour. read more

Sunday morning I was near Miami and wanted some breakfast. So a friend recommended First Watch and we went to try it. We arrived for lunch/brunch. There wasn't much of a wait so we were seated pretty quickly at a nice table. The inside of First Watch is open, pleasant and modern looking. Jenna was our waitress and she was very friendly and quickly brought us menus. I ordered coffee, OJ and a traditional breakfast of eggs, sausages and pancakes. I also got an extra order of pancakes (so I had three in total). We also ordered the crispy bacon covered in syrup (the "Million Dollar Bacon") because it looked really good in the pictures. Jenna quickly brought our coffee and it was really good. It tasted rich and creamy which is the way I like it. A little while later Jenna brought us the bacon covered in syrup. This was meant to be kind of an appetizer and Jenna brought it out before our main meal. The bacon with syrup was borderline okay (I mean is bacon ever really bad?). However, the bacon wasn't very warm and it didn't taste super fresh. I really think they just took bacon they had previously prepared and poured syrup on it and then charged a premium for it by calling it "Million Dollar Bacon." Next, my main meal was brought out. I got a large plate of eggs sunny side up, pancakes and sausages. They were okay. The pancakes just didn't have that killer buttermilk flavor you get in some places. They didn't have a whole lot of taste. The eggs and sausages were okay but again nothing special. The sausages tasted like the frozen type I sometimes make at home in the microwave. The eggs honestly also had no flavor. Also, be careful how much you order. The prices are not cheap and they add up quickly. I ended up spending $50 here for me and my friend. That's more than I paid for sushi for two the night before. Granted, in addition to the two main meals, I did order OJ, coffee, the Million Dollar Bacon appetizer and some extra pancakes (you only get one with the combo plate I ordered - it should really be two or more) but you still don't usually expect breakfast to cost that much. SIDE NOTE RAMBLE. FEEL FREE TO SKIP - In the last couple of weeks I've tried a number of different breakfast places. I am on a quest to find that perfect breakfast I remember from when I was younger. Some places like Country Inn nail it. However, so far I haven't found any new ones in the places I've tried in the last couple of weeks. There used to be a ton of places you could go to and get delicious breakfast food. IHOP used to even be one of them (sadly, not any more). I'm not sure why it is so hard to make really tasty pancakes, eggs, sausages, etc. END OF RAMBLE In summary, First Watch was just okay. Our waitress Jenna was very good but the food overall was average. You can definitely get a decent meal here but I don't think First Watch is a standout from the mass of other breakfast places in South Florida. read more

I decided to take my husband out for breakfast to begin the Fathers Day weekend. I ordered the works Omelette with a side of bacon which I didn't finish because it was packed with all the goodies; now I see why they call it the works. The works omelette has sausage, ham, bacon, cheese, mushrooms, and onions. It also come with a side of potatoes, multigrain bread which is delicious and the jam is out of this world. Plus, I had the nerve to order a side of bacon....which I didn't even touch because the omelette was filling enough. Unfortunately, I didn't like the potatoes because they were a little on the hard side, but I still picked at it. The service was good, but I was a little agitated because my husband had to ask for a straw and the waiter said they only give out straws upon request. Hmmm, okay. The second thing that irked me was I got a To/go box, which I got but then I had to ask for a bag. I thought it would be common sense, but then I had to remember some people probably walkout with food in only a to-go box without a bag. Overall, the service was good. read more

I'm somewhere between 3 and 4 stars for my first First Watch experience. While the company I was with is 5 stars, she's also a foodie and we both picked up on a few things. It certainly has an upscale, well lit vibe that's great for a casual brunch date for two busy people. First of all, there is a WAIT so take advantage of the check-in on the Yelp app when you're 10 miles out from the restaurant. There were lots of families, and a few other couples but the place seemed like a nicer version of the traditional diner chain. For one, I don't think there were any mimosas on the menu. Even for coffee, they only have American black coffee (i.e. no latte or fancy drinks). However, I must say my orange juice rocked since it had plenty of pulp! That's a pleasant surprise (even at trendy brunch spots). My BLT Eggs Benedict was actually really tasty, and kudos to them for taking out the avocado! I could taste all the individual flavors and the portion was nicely sized. My friendate ordered the lemon ricotta pancakes and while I snuck a few bites to sweeten my palate - the lemon compote & fresh fruit toppings were tasty - she pointed out there wasn't any noticeable flavor of ricotta cheese. All in all a pretty decent place for a quick breakfast bite, and we'd go if we're in the area. read more

Hands down 5 stars. The food is fresh, very good quality. I'm not sure but it seems like farm to table quality. I absolutely love that they have the calorie count of most of the menu options and they are environmentally conscious. The staff super friendly, excellent customer service and the prices are extremely reasonable. They care about the quality of the food and their customer's health. I am a repeat customer so long as those doors are open for service. Thank you to the sisters . read more

Luckily my daughter is smart and went on the website and got us on the waitlist before we got to the location. Didn't have to wait long and there was a line of people waiting so that helped. Waitress was a bit rude but I guess since they were so busy it can be overwhelming. I ordered the Farmhouse Hash with my eggs poached medium. My husband got the same thing but with eggs over easy. He enjoyed his skillet. I did not! The eggs were so small and overcooked it was ridiculous. I've never seen an egg as small as these two were. I ate them in one bite. The rest of the skillet was ok. Every time the waitress came over to us she had us doing her job...asking us to take the napkins out of her hand, telling us to pass our plates to the other person, etc. I didn't notice this until my SIL mentioned it. I really didn't like her tone with us though. Rough day, I guess. We will find somewhere else to eat next time we visit our daughter. We won't be returning here. There is a restaurant right across the street, Keke's Breakfast Cafe. I've been to a couple of First Watch restaurants and I haven't been impressed with any of them. It's a chain restaurant and it shows. No personality, nothing to rave about. It's just food that they throw on a plate and send it out. McDonald's is better than this place. read more

I mean probably thats ok! Happens! We ordered juice and tea first, but received it after server even brought our food to the table!

The time we came it wasn't even busy ... place was half empty... However waitress was nice and apologized for waiting, but said that they have a lot of 2go! We are happy that they busy with 2go orders, But as far we understand the people in dine-in are always priority! Honestly Not the best way to handle situation!giving 3* just because of the previous experience ,not this one!sadly wasn't satisfied at all! Hope they will do better! read more

I love me some First Watch, but this location was the most disorganized one I've ever seen. We basically sat at our table for about 25 minutes without a server coming around to take our order, so we hunted one down and placed an order with one of them. After 20 more minutes our drinks didn't come out so we checked with another server to see if our order even went through. It was just an unreasonable amount of time to wait for any type of service. On a higher note, the food was delish as usual. I ordered the Skillet Hash - Market style with eggs over easy (although they obviously didn't make my eggs over easy). I saw someone order this dish before me and it looked incredible, but there's looked way better with their eggs over easy. We also ordered the Carbonara Benedict from First Watch's seasonal menu. It came with a long thick cut of bacon under the eggs and was very tasty. I actually enjoyed this dish more than my own. Good thing we shared. Sharing is caring. I'm really loving First Watch's seasonal menu which changes every 3 months or so. I also ordered the Red Medicine (seasonal drink). This thing was delish with an interesting flavor combination of pomegranate, cranberry, black tea, local honey, and cinnamon with a cinnamon stick on top. It was very good and I can't say I've tasted this flavor combo before although, overall, I thought it was a just a little too sweet for my taste. Our server removed the Red Medicine from our bill due to our excessive wait time which I thought was a nice gesture. read more

I loved this place so much I had to come two days in a roll! Such a great place with great, clean, healthy, homemade food. I heard it can get pretty busy so I did the wait list through Yelp and only waited about 5 minutes each time to be seated. Our waitress brought us a big mason jar with water and lemon per our request. The place has a rustic touch to it, kind of farm like. The tables are separated enough where you don't feel crowed. The menu has a variety of foods, from healthy egg whites omelettes to potatoes and bacon. We tried.. **Farmhouse Skillet Hash - fresh seasoned potatoes with the best roasted tomatoes I've ever had, bacon, onions, cheese and avocado. I paired it with scrambled eggs. this was delicious and then some. **Chile Chorizo Omelette - chorizo, avocado, green chilis, onions, cheese with pico de gallo and a side of greens. It had the perfect spicy kick to it. The omelette was perfectly cooked, not runny at all. **Farm stand breakfast tacos - scrambled eggs with cajun chicken, chorizo, cheese, avocado on a white corn tortilla with a side of black beans. I had a party in my mouth when I bit into these. delicious! ** Inspired Italian Omelette - Italian sausage, roasted tomatoes, red peppers, fresh herbs, mozzarella and Parmesan cheese with a side of greens. It was like eating a pizza but in egg form. The greens were lightly dressed in vinegar and EVOO which went perfectly with the eggs and sausage. It also came with a side of toast with jelly. **Butternut squash soup - it's sweet and creamy but gives you Christmas vibes when you eat it. It's hot and warms up your heart. It's seasonal so everyone should try it. I loved the food, the ambiance, the cleanliness, the waitresses and hostess and for it being clean eating restaurant, the prices are amazing. This has slowly become my one of my go to's for brunch. read more
