With all of the locations nearby, this location is the best. The service is amazing and the servers are top notch. The quality control from the kitchen is amazing. The only downside is the wait, but that's to be expected when the service is so good. One way to avoid a long wait is to get in line online. The first watch app lets you know the wait time for each location before you even head out, and you have the opportunity to put your name in the line. read more

Worst experience in a restaurant in Orlando. The waitress was always away. I waited for my food a really long time and my family was eating while I was waiting for my food. Food was brought to me when my family was done. The excused was " oh I'm sorry I forgot about the other plate" had to wait 20 min to have the coffee cream and sugar to drink my coffee. My son was brought the wrong plate. Never regain I will eat at this restaurant. read more

Had a great lunch there and loved the all new Chili dish the chef had just created that same day. The service from our waitress was Superb!!! Highly recommend. read more

I wish there was a way to give less than a one star. I showed up today at 12pm and it was busy, that's not a problem as I too work at a very busy restaurant. My problem lies in the fact that I was told I could sit outside as it is first come first serve. The gentleman that told me to go sit outside said he would be right with me. Fast forward 10 minutes I still had not been greeted so I took it upon myself to grab a server and ask for help, another 5 minutes passes and I finally get lgreeted. I immediately ordered a water and my food. I then sat for another 30 minutes, no food and no sign of my waiter, he did not even return once. So I left, hungry and angry. This is not the only bad experience I've had at this location. The food is pretty good, but not nearly good enough to excuse the almost constant bad service that I receive at this location, so I will not be returning. Update: a manager asked me for my number and no one ever contacted me. read more

I've honestly been sitting here for about an hour. It took 20 minutes to get a server to take my order, I had to flag someone down, just to do so, and now it's been a good 40 minutes and still no food. Hopefully it's worth the wait. read more

Poor service. They have a lot to improve. I posted the reservation at 12:31 for check in. The host did not sit up until 15 min later. Then our server said hi and disappeared for another 15 min. I had to make a gesture to get their attention. Then an other server took our order them 45 mins later the food arrived cold like it was sitting there for a while. The server brought the check minutes after the food then subtracted the drinks to make up for the mess up. The location is outstanding. The food is great but the service sucks!!!!! read more

Everything was awesome, the food and the service! I would eat here every morning if I didn't work mornings!

Great breakfast. We had the breakfast tacos which were meaty, cheesy, and the perfect amount of spicy and the carnitas bowel (special) which was savory and delicious with the best cornbread I've ever had. All meals cost about $10 and coffee was unlimited. Kid-frindly. We went at 8am on a Sunday and had no wait for a table. Service was attentive and quick. read more

Concierge recommended this place- so glad he did. Food was soooo good. I have the trifecta and my son had the Farmhouse Hash. I stole a bunch of his potatoes- so good. My waffle was a little crisp, but it had great flavoring. Everything tasted so fresh. We will definitely be back. Good service as well. read more

Clean yes. Ambiance good for breakfast. Service good. A easy walk from where we are staying on International. Expectations were high as we have eaten at First Watch in Ohio and been pleased. However we won't be returning to this one. I got 2 overcooked poached eggs...more like hard boiled...swimming in water, and icy cold avocado toast. High priced bad breakfast. read more

awesome ass groceries in this place!! do not sleep on the million dollar bacon..oh my..the pancakes tho!!!the service was outstanding also...my apologies i cant remember her name she wad a fire cracker tho... 2 thumbs up read more

Best breakfast I've ever had! They took a little long to bring the food out, but we didn't notice. The waitress brought it to our attention that it took longer than it should have and gave us a $20 gift card towards the meal. Great service, great food! read more

Wait time was 10 minute. When we got a table I had to hail down a waitress after waiting 15 min. I used the restroom which was so unsanitary. The floor in the restaurant was full of crap. I understand Sunday is super busy but thats what managers are for. Help Out. We watch everyone around us enjoying there meal while we wait for our meal for 35min. WOW!! I CANT MAKE THIS CRAP UP... Food was good once it got to us. I guess it's a hit or miss. read more

We ended up eating here three days in a row during our trip to Orlando. They have an amazing variety of delicious breakfast options made with very high quality ingredients, ranging from hearty and healthy to indulgent. I was impressed with how delicious each individual element of each meal I ordered was - there is quality in the detail of every piece of each meal I ordered. The atmosphere is bright and friendly and open, which feels refreshing as a start to the day. All three times we are here our servers were excellent, attentive, and friendly. read more

great food but the service sucked. it was my first time here and we came in as the rush was dying out, our server took our order and we never saw them again lol. couldn't get refills on our drinks and to go boxes. we got our bill before we could finish our food or order desert -_- wouldn't recommend based off service alone- super off putting. read more

Long wait to sit but worth it. Excellent food. It would be helpful if they hire more people to bus the tables.

Not tourist friendly. Told us a 45 minute wait with 2-3 parties ahead of us. After an hour said maybe another 20 minutes. We left. Seated 3 parties of same size (locals?) who arrived after we did. Do not recommend. read more

Place has not disappointed me so far with brunch. Good food, service is usually good. I personally do not like their coffee and think they could do better. My mom complained the music is a bit loud for the morning. I get her gift cards for this place and she likes it. read more

The wait time for being seated was an hour. Which i don't mind waiting, but to wait another 45-50 mins for food says unorganized kitchen to me. Food was ok, not outstanding. I have had better Eggs Benedict elsewhere. I will probably not be back. read more

Waited an hour for our food and it arrived cold. Had to ask for water multiple times, waitress response "this girl needs to get it together because I can't do this too" read more

Food was excellent and very fresh when we finally got it. We waited 30 minutes for a table, and then 45 minutes for our food after ordering. I had been dying to try this place as I heard it was really good but it wasn't worth the wait. Seems there was a lack of management and direction as once we got inside, we could see several tables still needing to be bussed while there were families outside still waiting to be seated. You couldn't fit any more people on the kitchen line so doesn't seem they were short staffed. Good food but if I have to wait for more than an hour to eat I won't be back. Unfortunate because I can walk to the place and could have quickly become a regular. read more

I decided to check this place out as it's close to the house and I love a good breakfast place. Amazing first experience and I loved the beet orange juice mixed drink they had and the food was great! Server was Lyndsey who was also great very nice and helped me through the menu . Great experience overall will be back! read more

It started with a 20 minute wait then asked to sit at a community table. The people who sat after us got their food before us. We got no water offered. The food came out and was less than average, not what i expected after reading the description on the menu. The scrambled eggs were over cooked and the potatoes tasted like onions. There was barely a dab of avocado on my egg sandwich. And then the bill came and it was $30 for two people for food that was not great. Will not go back. read more

This location needs to learn how to tell tables to get up and go there has to be a limit and the kitchen needs proper training I asked for poached eggs and got three raw eggs cracked into a bowl I would've rather ate the eggs straight out the shell tbh ... the server was a sweet heart the only reason y'all got the two stars, the food is good quality but if you don't prepare it properly it's not quality .... overall like I said there has to be a capacity limit along with a time limit for tables. Very very slow I waited almost two hours to eat raw food and get my order wrong . read more

Came last week while visiting the area for travel and was super impressed. Found the chain through youtube reviews from @thetimtracker and he raved about how this place was much better and faster than kekes. Was very impressed servers were friendly, place was packed yet all the food and drinks came out quickly and all were delicious and tasty. Would definitely come here again, clean, friendly staff, good, healthy fresh food at a reasonable price and thrilled to see all of their non dairy vegan options and the dairy free silk on the table. We dont see that too often back in NY. Had the superfood bowl and would highly recommend along with the fresh OJ. read more

Hostess was SO very rude! Hateful again when we asked about her seating several tables before ours. You can recognize her by her double lip piercing. Server was nice! read more

This was a poor experience from start to finish. Mary, our server was nice but literally everything else was tragic. We walked in and were told there was 20 minute wait. As we waited into the 40 minute timeframe, we had people walking in, seating themselves ahead of the people waiting, and being served. When those of us waiting went to inquire about our position in the queue, the host snapped on the guests in front of us, telling her that she was the only host and that every just needed to be patient and that it wasn't her fault. Other employees had to calm her down. Once we were all seated, we ordered and Mary was very kind but our food took an hour and a half to be delivered - incomplete and with items that looked like they should be thrown out. We went to pay our bill, the host asked if everything was delicious and she said "oh okay" swiped our card and asked us to sign. The manager was spectating the whole time but had no presence among the guests. I asked for a business card and was told the manager didn't have one as they were in the office. We just decided to just leave. read more

This was our second visit to First Watch and probably the last. First is all when looking around on the floor and corners it was DIRTY. But the worst part is was when my husband used the rest room and came out with his shoes covered with toilet paper. As well as other people. YUK. !!! Our order included pancakes. It took forever to get the maple syrup. My husband had to go over to the kitchen to request the syrup. By then our food was getting cold. REALLY???? The food is good but not when it is cold. read more

This was my favorite place in Orlando. We are from New York City and we are here for vacation. The wait in the morning was 10-15 minutes and it was sort of like a 6 minute wait. My favorite dish was the chocolate chip pancake on the kids menu. read more

Long wait times; good food but slow, somewhat inefficient service. On the basis of food alone, they could rate as a 4-star establishment. They also provide nutritional information online. However, it's informational only. If you're on a low-sodium or restricted diet, it's hard to actually bring salt levels down or otherwise update to individual requirements. It appears that there are few bread options for those who are interested in this. At FirstWatch, they are really good at keeping you up-to-date about your wait time for seating but the actual seating choices tend to be inefficient and the servers fall over each other & may be found chatting instead of helping guests. Toilet and overall facilities leave room for improvement. Staff do not seem to regularly clean restrooms and toilet paper is left strewn on the floor while toilet paper roll holders are empty - not a good thing! read more

First time dining at a First Watch. Great experience and worth the wait. The staff was very friendly, food was good, and the restaurant was packed with a continual wait. We will be back!! read more

We came here today (sept 14-2019) for breakfast and food is delicious . My 5 and 7 year old loved it and asked to come back. However service is extremely slow and it's super loud. I got txt saying our table is ready at 10:25 we wore seated and ordered food by 10:35. First though was this is great it's busy and didn't wait super long to order food. Then 11:10 comes around and we haven't received food yet. I asked few employees over the course of time if our food will be coming soon if not we would be leaving. ( we have 5 month old and didn't wanna sit around waiting for food half the day) we wore told there is only few tickets ahead of us. Food FINILY arrived at 11:25 lovey lady that came to deliver our food apologized for such a long wait and told us on on the house which was great. We loved food and lady that was there was very nice and friendly but if wait is this long each time not sure that we would be coming back any time soon. read more

My boyfriend and I came here for breakfast on our last day of vacation and I honestly wish we would have found it sooner because I would have come here every morning. This restaurant had great costumer service and the food was incredible. Definitely one of my new favorite places. I wish we were staying in Orlando longer so we could come back again! read more

On Sunday 8/19/19 at around 10:am, we go into this restaurant. The meal is good, and we are preparing to leave. The Cash register is standing behind a row of plastic plants that forms a barrier between the cashier, cash register, and the payee. There is room enough for three people to stand in front of the cash register, and in front of the line is a customer attempting to sign the receipt. There is a pail of ink pens on the left side where this customer is standing. So, the lady behind the cash register who did not have a good morning, or a how was your meal in her, waives her left hand above the shrub row and announces I'll help you over here, and I step up to the counter. I'm now standing to the right of the customer still trying to sign the receipt. About that time, I'm wondering what is taking the lady standing to my left so long, and I guessed that the pen just won't put ink onto the cash register receipt, or something like that. So, I'm not sure how to hand my receipt and credit card to the lady behind the cash register, so I attempt a up and over motion and to my right side. She takes them from me. By now, the lady on my left has finally signed the receipt and moves off behind me, someone behind me must have made room for her party to leave because I was on her right and blocking her exit. The lady behind the counter reaches out to her left side around the shrubs, and handing me the receipt and my card she asks me to sign the receipt. In nearly the same breath, she immediately asks the foreign couple standing behind me to step up to the counter, on my left side. It seemed rude that she handed me the receipt and told me to sign it without allowing me a chance to ask for a pen before she beckoned the next customer to the register. So, I'm standing there with the receipt in my hand while she is getting a receipt and credit card from a nice foreign couple who are probably on a vacation holiday in Orlando at this I-drive restaurant. Then I ask her "Do you have a pen?" She tells me the pens are over on the left side of the counter. but now two people stand between me and the pail of pens that probably don't wright. So, I have to stand there waiting a bit for an opportunity to nicely ask the couple to my left to hand me a pen. I hope that my patience and politeness rubs off on the cashier. I signed and I left a tip of One Dollar. FOR THAT SERVICE ONE DOLLAR IS MORE THAN YOU DESERVE. read more

The best place in the town for breakfast @ Orlando!!! Great service and excellent food.

This is our first visit to a First Watch restaurant and it was wonderful! The service was great and the food scrumptious. My husband is rather selective with regard to his hollandaise sauce. He had the Salmon Eggs Benedict and said it was perfect! Add the fresh greens and it was heavenly! We're in Orlando for another day and already have made plans to return tomorrow! Thank you for all your hard work in the kitchen. We really enjoyed it! read more

I don't mind waiting a long time for the food, as I know this was a busy weekend with it being memorial day and all. But we waited 1 hour to be seated, after that we waited 40 mins for our food.. I never got the water that we asked for, I never got my toast and when we got our food, it was not even hot, we let the server know, she never apologized, never asked how was everything? Overall I give it a 1 star. I've gone to first watch at other locations and they've been nothing but awesome! Except this one. read more

Went there this morning by myself, and they sat me down in a matter of seconds. The waitress was very polite and got me my drinks and food in a timely manner. The staff there are really nice and the restaurant has a calm environment. I will definitely come back. read more

Went today for a late breakfast early lunch, there was a wait they said for 30-45 mins which it took an hour. Once we sat down our waiter came over once and never came back, so we waived down a different waiter for our coffee and she was very polite and did her job well. it only took about 45 mins after we ordered for the food to arrive and it wasn't like we ordered a baby calf we ordered a sandwich and 2 pancakes and they were all cold. When we told the waiter she gave us 50% off for the second time this week. Would not suggest. read more

We came here first time yesterday, it was great. Today it is horrible wait time. Dirty tables everywhere, people waiting to be seated. We finally got seated after 35 mins at a dirty table, had to ask to have it re-washed and it's still dirty. We had to flag down our server to place our order. Very disorganized when this busy. We also didn't know they had a "community table" which would have reduced our wait time. The food was so good yesterday but today I'm not sure the other short comings are worth ever coming back. read more
