    The food was good but the service was terrible. Our waiter forgot about us and then was stationed behind the bar so we sat for a while until we made due without the things we were missing. I had to go up to the bar to ask for our check. Overall we won't be going back. I do appreciate the quality of the food and everything was really good but the service was a real turn off

    Lemon Ricotta Pancakes and bacon
    Ashley U.

    The lemon ricotta pancakes are always a perfect brunch treat. I added a side of bacon that was perfectly cooked. We came on a Monday morning and it was very busy-- waited about 10-15 mins for 4 people. Service was friendly and fast. Everything was clean and well-maintained, bathrooms included. I love the unique feel of First Watch and that I can count on it to be delicious no matter where I'm traveling.

    All in all, this is a good First Watch location. I am a fan of First Watch and this location had the quality, service and general ambiance is have come to expect from a First Watch. Before First Watch and other similar restaurants, the greasy-spoon diner was the norm when wanting breakfast. I definitely appreciate a more elevated place for breakfast. I would definitely recommend here.

    Always been a fan of this chain. This location can get busy fast! I went in today to pick up a Togo order and it felt like a constant rush of people would walk in. The host was very good at controlling everything between pick up orders, payments, and seating. She was sweet too. I got the BEC and the athlete (added ham). I will say I wish I got a bit more ham in the omelette as it was something I had to pay almost $3 extra for.

    While in Orlando over the weekend, we ordered breakfast to go at First Watch. They generally have been pretty good in the cities and towns that we have visited. This one was nice and clean with a friendly staff and casual vibe. We had the Traditional breakfast with Eggs, Bacon and house potatoes and the Tres Leches French Toast with syrup and strawberries. Both were good! My daughter had the Honey Crunch Iced coffee. Our server was Alejandro. He was friendly, attentive and helpful with suggestions. Parking was right out front of the restaurant and wheelchair accessible.

    the drinks are too STRONG or too WEAK and their lavender drink tastes like soap :( The Bloody Mary was decent but tasted like just v8 and black pepper. They didn't have the right liquor license to even fix a weak drink... Service was horrendously slow. We let them know we were in a rush and still waited around 40 minutes for food. Soup came out flaming hot and couldn't be eaten for a while. Eggs Benedict was basic, hollandaise was not great. Too frothy and did not very flavorful. All in all I get that it's a staple, but I really thought the food OR the drinks OR the service OR the ambience would be better.

    Went there for breakfast and was seated down right away. It was a cold morning and they had hot coffee station outside for people that are waiting to be seated. The inside is nice and open, they decorated the place & have holiday menu which is very festive. Food took awhile to come out (it did get busy) but it was hot and delicious. Overall it's a good breakfast/ brunch spot for a quick bite

    Big fans of First Watch. When ever we travel we try to find a First Watch to ensure a great breakfast. We visited this location and were just blown away. It's such a beautiful place. I approve of it all, decor, lighting, tables & chairs. Who ever set this place up knows what they're doing. We had the pleasure of getting Timothy as our server. He was just incredible. What a friendly guy. He attended to our every need. He was just super wonderful. What an asset to First Watch. We tried 2 of the specials. The Maple Biscuit and the Chipotle Chicken Hash. WOW WOW WOW. We fought about which one was the better dish. We also enjoyed some mimosas they prepare in front of you, nice touch. Coffee is amazing. We love First Watch. I HOPE THEY STAY AS THEY ARE AND NEVER CHANGE BECAUSE ITS PURE PERFECTION. Thanks Timothy!

    This was such a wonderful brunch experience! I personally love First Watch and their concept. Service was wonderful, I wish I remembered my server's name she was great. We were sat towards the back, nice and quiet. I ordered their in season cinnamon toast cereal milk cocktail and it was delicioussss. Their coffee was delicious as well. I ordered their eggs Benedict with smoke salmon & potatoes (this is my favorite dish here), my mom ordered their in season so cal hash bowl (not pictured) my son ordered the kids bacon and egg (scrambled) and the kids French toast which I got to try and it was delicious! I like that you can pay online, avoiding having to wait for the server to come back or you can go up to the host stand to pay. The restaurant was very clean and the staff was very friendly. 10/10 recommend

    Trifecta

    The food was delicious as always! Never been to a First Watch that disappointed me. I tried something different this time with the frittata and it was delicious! My husband got his usual, the Trifecta.

    Everything was great. The staff, the service, the ambiance, and the food! Glad we came.

    First impressions. "Complimentary coffee" for those waiting. Coffee has been empty for 10 minutes and trash is overflowing. Good plan + poor execution = bad plan. Revised down. They don't filter their water, which is a bad idea. Nasty.

I was hoping for fresh, made-to-order food that really showcased the flavors, but it felt more like a standard breakfast rather than something special. The service was friendly, but the overall experience didn't quite match the expectations or hype. It's a decent place to stop by for a casual breakfast, but there are definitely areas where the food quality and presentation could be improved.

It was bagged nicely and well organized. The omelette was a generous sized portion with plenty of tender chicken, peppers, and cheese.

My mom enjoyed the banana pecan waffles, and I took a couple bites as well. It was sinfully sweet and enjoyable, especially the bananas. And I must say the coffee was so good, it was even better than the Juan Valdez coffee that I make at home. Since I didn't visit the restaurant, I can't comment on the atmosphere.

The chicken and waffle was very good. The chicken was well seasoned and fried to perfection. I added hot honey to mine. That way I can further that sweet and savory flavor.

I asked for another chocolate milk, but the server said I have to stand inline again to get one...it took me 8 mins just to get one, I was pretty annoyed at this point. My food was getting cold as I stood inline for a drink. But the thing that got me was my son got sick from the orange juice. He threw up on his plate (quietly). I tasted the orange juice 1st it wasn't even cold and it was just not tasting right for me. So that wasn't really pleasant for us. It was a bit loud for breakfast time, I keep getting a strangers backside on me while they stood inline it's crowded. Safe to say not a very fun experience for us.

The empanada came LOADED with shredded beef and this empanada didn't skimp out on quality. It tastes so good when you dip it with the green sauce and it was chef's kiss. I think this is the best empanada I ever had and when I tried other empanada, it doesn't even compare to this. I ordered another dish but I forgot the name and it's soo good. I was a little disappointed because the menu said pick 3 sides and I chose all beef. Alfredo didn't mention to me that there would be an additional charge for the beef. As a result, I had to pay an additional $10 which was very pricey and didn't find out until I received my bill and saw the charge. I didn't make any complaints because the employees seem not to speak English well and it's hard to be a foreigner trying to adapt to the culture and the language.

They also have lunch specials, which is nice. Cons- There is ALWAYS a weird perm smell when you go. It literally smells like someone is perming their hair, so not good. Another con is sometimes it takes long to get your food. And last but not least, I think their prices are not reasonable lately. Some of the prices do not match their menu, not sure when they raised their prices but I have never ever heard of a patacon costing almost $26 anywhere, and I frequent a lot of Venezuelan spots. Their name went from Q'Kenan restaurant to Q'Kenan Steakhouse so maybe now they just raised all the prices, I don't know. Their most expensive patacon on the menu is the one with Picańha and it says $17...yet I got charged 25.90. Regardless of how good something is, there shouldn't be a $9 difference from what is on the menu. That is absurd. On my last trip- $43 for an empanada, tequeńos and a patacon just doesn't sound right for Venezuelan food, and I come from living in Miami where restaurants are supposed to be more expensive. Add a tip and you're paying over $50 for street food. That's wild.
