Probably one of the most disappointing restaurant experiences I've had in a while.. once we sat down we waited 10 minutes for our server, then after than we got our drinks and waited another 10 minutes until another server came up and took our order because we were not given the opportunity to order when our drinks were first delivered and then waited 40 minutes for the most unimpressive food and portions. The only pleasant experience of our whole meal was Melissa when she brought our food with a smile and ended up closing our checks. read more

This is by far my favorite breakfast spot. I eat here every time I come to orlando. They also have really good juices.

Great experience at this location! My server Alix was awesome, very attentive and friendly, and made sure I was happy from the get-go. The manager on duty, Allie was also very friendly and checked to make sure my food was satisfying. I had the Pesto Chicken Quinoa with a side of cayenne pepper and it was the best I've ever had! Thanks for the great experience! read more

First Watch on University Drive has always been a favorite of mine. When I heard one was coming nearer to where I live, I was thrilled. A few weeks after they opened I took a friend there for breakfast. As soon as we walked in the door, the noise was over powering. We sat down and ordered. We could not carry on a conversation with each other because of the extreme noise everywhere. The type of construction must be the cause of this because when I eat at the First Watch on University I don't have any problem talking with my friends. This is sad to me because long ago I decided that I would not go to restaurants where I could not talk with my friends. I really hope the company can figure a way to rectify this huge problem. Until I hear differently I will not be going back there. To be fair, the food was the usual good quality and tasty. read more

Nice server, nice greeter. Love the decoration and the noise level is a little high, but not to bad. Ordered the banana granola crunch. Huge, huge pancakes. The syrup is hot in a bottle. Pancakes were delicious. Highly recommend read more

First watch is a great restaurant and this one is no exception. I really like the local decor they have put up. The food is great & the service is great. I highly recommend the avocado toast as well as their field greens. We got our food quickly and it was delicious. Special shout out to Sara who was an exceptional waitress & just seemed like an overall awesome human being. She doesn't know it but I was there for my birthday & she made it a wonderful birthday brunch. read more

Shatia was an excellent server! So nice and accommodating. Food was wonderful as always.

Our daughter had her 18th birthday that day, and she wanted to go to First Watch in Oviedo for breakfast. We had the best time, the best food, and got some great pictures that day, some of which made our annual Christmas card. Hannah was super nice when we walked in. Hannah made sure we had a clean table, took care of us, and knew that it was my daughter's birthday. She really set the tone with her great personality. Keep up the great work, all! read more

I love the atmosphere, the menu and the food quality at First Watch. But we find ourselves choosing to eat elsewhere as the coffee is appalling. So bitter and over roasted. Tastes very far from fresh. Please improve your coffee and we will be regular customers! read more

By far one of my favorite breakfast places in Oviedo! The food is amazing. My favorite are the freshly squeezed juices and the avocado toast! The atmosphere and staff are great. From the moment I walked in and to the moment that we left the staff and the manager Tara was very helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu! I definitely will be coming back! Thank you First Watch Oviedo! read more

Great place to eat. Wait staff are so friendly, respectful and prompt. Menu choice are versatile and some are seasonal. Food came out in a reasonable amount of time and everything was great including the coffee. Definitely recommend this first watch location. Keep up the good work! read more

Absolutely awful! I was served moldy bread! It wasn't just a little mold either. I will never step foot in this place again!

Service was horrible. No pancake syrup, 3 different servers came to our table. No one seemed to know what was going on. Bathrooms were a mess with trash cans over flowing. Bad experience! read more

Like others, I was excited that First Watch came to Oviedo since I have been a University Blvd customer for years. However, I recommended FW today to a group of seven friends, last time. Here is my personal experience: Our group of 7 was crowded around tables that should have only seated 6, and the side of my chair was actually touching the wall. The server took our drink order, brought half of them, then went missing. After a long wait, she returned to take our food order (we had to TELL her she didn't bring all of our drinks, or the requested straws, which she never did come back with, we had to ask another nearby server). I ordered a simple 2 pancakes. Everyone's food arrived, except for mine. Again, server was nowhere. She came back minutes later and asked how everything was, I had TELL her my food never arrived. The others were half through their meal before my 2 pancakes appeared. No apology. I asked again for a straw...nope. At the end, asked for a box; she handed a stack of four boxes to our table and said "they're all stuck together, you'll have to get them apart" which we had to do with two small tables filled with empty glasses and plates, never asked if she could take anything away. I asked for a refill of DIET coke; she brought it and said "here's your coke" and I confirmed that it was DIET, and she said YES. WRONG, it was not diet. Gave up on the server and reported the horrible service at the cashier station and suggested a manager might want to know; she was sweet, but suggested I put a review online (no manager around that I could see). So here it is. I paid over $11 for 2 pancakes and a diet coke and this horrid service. Please don't bother, First Watch, to post an empty apology here, it will only make it worse. read more

When this location first opened I really enjoyed coming here. The past two times I have come here recently it hasn't been the same. Today I sat outside because it was a beautiful day. The waitress came took my order and then left. It didn't take long for it to come and it was delicious(from what I got to eat). I was sitting alone so I got up and took my belongs (so no one took it) to go to the restroom and I was gone for 2 minutes and they had already came and took my food away before i was done with it. I understand because no one was at the table. But I returned because I had still not received my check, so I waited about 10 minutes and still no one came. I finally went up the register to check out and they had to find the waitress to get my check. No one checked on me asking how everything was. It's sad because I really enjoy the food here and when it first opened the service was excellent! read more

I'm very picky with breakfast places and this exceeded my expectations. If you care about fresh healthy food I recommend this place. I had the farmhouse skillet and it was perfect. They have plenty of healthy options. Everything was so fresh and they use the best ingredients. read more

LOVE. Great addition to Oviedo. Our new go to place for breakfast. The decor, food and service are great. Deducted 1 star for acoustics. It's sooooo noisy. Very hard to hear the servers or each other. I don't know if this can be fixed but, First Watch, if you're reading this, please try. It's our only complaint. read more

We love FW but our 1st visit to this location was okay. My husbands food had a hair in it. And it wasn't even taken off the ticket And we had all finished eating then he had gotten his food. read more

This is my second attempt at dining here. Unfortunately service is sub par both times. Everyone is very pleasant and apologetic but it still doesn't change the dining experience. I'm sorry First Watch. read more

I've loved First Watch for years so I'm thrilled to have one in Oviedo! I recently stopped by the new location with my boyfriend and dog (outdoor seating- yay!) the manager greeted us at the door and the host sat us promptly. our server was speedy and knowledgeable; I told her I didn't like my eggs too runny and she recommended over-medium to which I agreed. I received my food, and in my first bite found the yolk wasn't well done and in that moment I realized I didn't know what over-medium meant and if I was looking for a well done egg I should have outright asked for a well done egg. another server noticed I wasn't thrilled and offered to take it back and have it remade, I was taking my dog to a vet appt immediately after and didn't have a bunch of time but agreed, not only were they SUPER fast in remaking and sending it out, the manager came out to apologize and check on us (again- not the restaurants fault that I don't know how I like my eggs!! but so kind of them to care enough to remake it for me how I wanted without any hassle) I will absolutely and without a doubt be back! I believe our servers name was Kayla and she truly was gracious and helpful! when she came out and saw my pup the smile on her face was so sincere, idk about anyone else but dog people are my kind of people. don't miss out- this might be the best First Watch they've opened by far. read more

Outstanding breakfast! Pleasant atmosphere, simply delicious food! This is definitely our new 'to-go' breakfast spot!!

Awesome food and great service. This is defiantly a regular stop for us. Great family stop for breakfast with a large variety to please everyone in the group. read more

I haven't been to First Watch in quite a while but recently had breakfast at this (relatively new) location. Like any visit to First Watch on the weekend, we waited about 25 min for an inside table (which IIRC is about typical or slightly shorter) but it wasn't too bad. Bring some sunglasses because it's bright outside (all concrete and no shade when I was there). Once we sat down, service was good and attentive and the food and drinks were good as well. It can get rather pricey, but I felt like it was worth it: all of the different meals were good (Farmhouse scrambler, Superfood breakfast bowl), there are many other unique dishes and drinks to choose from, and the service was good. read more

I haven't been to First Watch in a while, but had good experiences at other locations. The service at the Oviedo location is AWFUL. Three of us visited recently for brunch. The server brought out my meal with the other two, but mine had a crayon in the salad. Hmmm. I pointed it out, and he took away my entire meal. My significant other finished his meal, as did my son. After they both were done (and about 20 minutes after taking away my meal) the server finally brought my meal back. Seriously? I could have eaten the main dish (eggs), and the salad could have been remade in a few moments. Why on earth would it take 20 minutes to remake this? To top it off, they didn't apologize OR say anything about it OR take the meal off the ticket. Extremely overpriced food as well. Don't bother with this place. read more

The noise level in this particular First Watch is way too loud! Waiting on our food order it was hard to decide to stay and eat or depart. The food was top quality as was the service, but when both of our ears were ringing from the noise level we when we got outside we decided to stay away until they sound proof the place. If you dine here I suggest ear plugs. read more

Good grub, plenty of it. Prices OK. But...too loud! Couldn't hear myself think. Had the shout at dining partners. Don't need that in the morning. Need quiet! High ceilings, steel structure, echos. Everyone trying to make themselves heard. read more
