    Honey Chipotle Chicken Hash
    Cherie R.

    Great brunch place, just be prepared to wait in line or join the waitlist online! They were soooo busy but service was great and very quick. They have high chairs for the kiddos and different plastic cups and straws for them to use too. My chipotle honey hash was VERY salty. Didn't love it honestly. I saved a lot and added fresh avocado to tone down the saltiness. The biscuits and gravy were yummy / the potatoes that came with that dish were really good and not too salty. The pancake was giant and yummy too!

    Very good, as always. Our server was very attentive and friendly. The food is always excellent. We both had seasonal specials this time, and enjoyed them. The restaurant is always clean, and staff is helpful.

    I have been to many First Watch restaurants, scattered across Kentucky, Ohio, and Missouri. It's a good option for us because we know and like their menu, the cocktails are good enough, and they have a Gluten Free menu. I don't normally order power bowls, but we were in a bit of a rush and getting ready for a beach vacation. So I had to eat something healthier. Both bowls were fantastic, and the coffee went down fast. Nothing much else to comment on this experience. So why is this a five star review? There are a few reasons: 1. This was my second time to this location, and both were good experiences 2. Servers were kind and efficient for a chaotic Saturday morning 3. We put our names on the waitlist, arrived in the timeframe, and actually got seated. That does not always happen Overall - a consistently pleasant time with good food and plenty of options.

    Food wonderful, atmosphere great, customer service is A1!!! We had the Trifecta, one with waffle, and the other with pancakes. All of it was great!!!!!

    Food from here is always good but i ordered on doordash and received a pancake that wasn't cooked so i was a little disappointed other than that everything was good.

    First Watch boasts a varied breakfast/brunch and lunch menu including a good vegetarian selection. Prices are moderate for the quality and portions. Skillet potatoes were outstanding, crunchy on the outside and tender on the inside. Fluffy scrambled eggs and well done thick sliced bacon. I don't know what brand they serve, but coffee was delicious. We were quickly seated and served during mid morning mid week visit. Nice that calorie information is on the menu. I don't understand why beverage menu doesn't have prices, even coffee.

    We come to First Watch every few months- it's really a solid place and has entrenched itself into our normal breakfast rotation. The staff are friendly and laid back. The ambience is casual and, although it is usually busy on the weekends, the service is fast and efficient. I have a terrible sweet tooth during breakfast, but initially restrained myself at our most recent trip by ordering "The Traditional". This plate comes with two eggs, potatoes, toast, and choice of meat. The ingredients are fresh and it just felt like I was eating a healthier meal. All of the food is cooked perfectly. Of course, I couldn't resist and caved by ordering the Holey Donuts which are cinnamon sugar-dusted cake dount holes. This dish comes with both chocolate sauce and a berry compote for dipping. It was so delicious (my mouth is watering just writing this). I'll be back soon!

    Love the food. Everything is always delicious. The staff is courteous and food comes out promptly. The service is top notch. The ambiance matches their theme. It's a lively breakfast/brunch restaurant that promotes fresh and healthy ingredients. The decor reflects that. Oscar was our waiter and he was attentive but not intrusive.

    I was sad to find old avocado
    Steven M.

    I mean it was good. And I would go back again. But it's not something I'd crave. We went in at about 10 am on a Wednesday. We got seated right away. We got drinks within a few minutes and food came about 15 minutes after that. The one big negative is that there was brown/old avocado slices on my plate. The server was nice enough but seemed a little frazzled. Maybe she had one table too much. That's pretty much it. There are plenty of pictures here to look at to see what the food is like. Like I said, I'll go again but it's not something I'll suggest when guests are in from out of town.

    Our table of 4 was seated very quickly for Saturday morning brunch. The service was great, staff was friendly, and the food was delicious. Definitely recommend

    Taco El Pastor Hash
    Paul P.

    On way to my Dr appt, daughter and I decided stop by for breakfast on way. First Watch 2nd time but different location. First time I've been to Chesterfield but this one in Oakville. It make it quick and I order Banana Foster French Toast. See on the board of spring special. My daughter ordered Taco El Pastor Hash. It's pulled pork taco with roasted hash potatoes. French Toast we're delicious and can't eat all of it. The waitress were friendly. Thank you for these breakfast

    Rude wifi customer in a busy Sunday with long wait over an hour on laptop
    Cynthia B.

    Extremely rude customer taking up table for 4 on Sunday morning with a very long wait. On laptop the entire hour (was done when we were seated) plus phone. Ordered nothing additional. This place needs staff so times are running a little slower now but this is beyond rude. The server already has less table turnover but this person just screwed the waitress totally by not allowing her a 4 person tip. Customers are not always right and just because someone is nice enough to not ask (you) to leave doesn't mean you get to win the ass of the day trophy and smile about it. But you definitely won. 5 star for staff. Zero star for laptop/cell phone two fisting mama done eating for well over an hour and a half.

    Biscuits & gravy, Barbacoa breakfast burrito & a Bloody Mary!

I ordered French Onion soup and spaghetti and meatballs. The soup was bland and was void of any taste. It was just water and onion slices covered by a piece of cheese. Zero taste, zero love given in its preparation. The spaghetti and meatballs were no better. This dinner came with two pieces of "garlic bread" which was just a hoagie bun cut in half with butter on it...zero taste/zero love....how could managment serve that to a paying customer? The spaghetti noodles were blah, the meatballs were blah and the marinara sauce tasted like it came from a can. No spices, no flavor, NO LOVE. The restaurant itself was clean, the wait staff was friendly. Managment, please sit down with your cooks and taste your own food dishes.

    We recently came here for the second time and met some friends for dinner. It was their first time…read moreeating at the Twisted Tavern. Everything our group ordered was delicious! What really stood out to me was the service we received! I really appreciated not being rushed through our meal. The fact that they actually let you order your courses separately so they're not coming out on top of each other was refreshing. And even though it was a Friday night and there were others waiting to get in we weren't rushed to pay our bill but instead invited to take our time. We hadn't seen or heard much about their pizzas, but we were in the mood for one and decided to order the meat pizza. It was made in a brick oven and it was really tasty. Honestly there were so many toppings that we ended up asking for an extra cup of the marinara sauce to dip it in. The sauce is made in house, it was delicious and the waitress said it's the same one that's used with the spaghetti and meatballs. In regard to the pizza size even though they're considered personal pizzas it was definitely bigger than we were anticipating. I would say they're close to 11 to 12 inches in diameter. My husband and I each enjoyed two pieces with our salad and took the other half home with us. They are definitely big enough to share, especially if you're ordering an appetizer or a salad to go with it. Our group very much enjoyed the artichoke spinach dip. It came with bread that had been cooked in their brick oven and I love that the spinach was in bigger pieces. My husband, and I also shared the harvest salad which had butternut squash on it, candied pecans & goat cheese. It was really yummy. Others in our group enjoyed the salmon and the crispy chicken sandwich. I had recently seen on a local Jefferson County page that many people consider Twisted Tavern the best place for a good piece of cake specifically, their wedding cake . Truth is that was the primary reason why I suggested this restaurant to meet our friends at but sadly by the time we finished our meal and were ready to order dessert they had already sold out. We were told this does not usually happen. Overall, we found tasty fresh food made in house, great service and fair prices. I am already planning another visit to the Twisted Tavern (so I can try their wedding cake! ).

We ordered apps. Spinach dip, onion rings, fried pickles, Brussel sprouts, and aside of spaghetti. The brussels sprouts were nicely fried, a little greasy. The fried pickles were lightly breaded, but very salty. The side of spaghetti was large enough to be a full serving. Wasn't overly impressed with the food, but the service here was top-notch.
