First Watch is my favorite brunch/breakfast spot. The food is always fresh and tasty. There is never too bad of a wait time, and the staff is always friendly. Great ambience, too. Bright and inviting decor and always clean. read more

1st time at this First Watch Location. Our Server (Tia) was FANTASTIC! She made her rounds, checked in on us on a very regular basis, our meals were presented Exactly how we ordered them, she was quick with the coffee/water refills. Outstanding Job Tia. The Food was Very Good. All of our orders were delivered how we ordered them, Food was Hot and Delicious. Prices were "On-Par" with other Breakfast Restaurants. There isn't much else to say. I plan on coming back, as this was a very good experience. Almost Forgot - Restaurant was following COVID Guidelines, Table Separation, Masks for Entry, all the Staff were wearing gloves & masks. read more

I have to admit I've never had a bad experience with this location (Oviedo) until today. The food was good, the service was terrible! The waitress never brought my drink. I waited and waited. My food came out and no drink. I made a comment to the person who brought my food about it. She said she addressed it with the waitress. Its a simple ask, a drink. I was never asked if I wanted a refill. Then i get my check and the waitress didn't even ask how was everything, thanks for stopping by, have a nice day. These are basic manners. I will think twice before picking this location for breakfast. read more

First Watch - Breakfast Tacos. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Oviedo, Florida

My family and I frequent this First Watch often. Always have a great experience. Yesterday I placed a to go order and double checked everything before I left. They did forget the side of avocado which wasn't a big deal as I was still there. Unfortunately they brought me a tiny serving in a little container literally the size of my thumb. A far cry from the amount you would normally get and pay for. read more

I love First Watch! Have come to different locations on a number of occasions but this location has been my favorite. It is fairly brand new still and have a very homey southern but modern twist of decor. I get the avocado toast every time and their iced coffee is one of my favorites ! It's pretty sweet FYI. Service is amazing like always and when my grandma didn't like her bacon due to it being burnt they gave us coupons for a free meal ! I really love this place but an interesting name for a breakfast spot lol read more

My wife and I stopped in on a whim and it was great! Our waiter was phenomenal and the food was great. We started with the million dollar bacon and ginger donuts. The bacon was very good but had to much pepper for my wife. The ginger donuts were very good. Kind of reminded me of the fritters from Dixie Crossroads but definitely its own flavor. For our mains I had the classic eggs Benedict and my wife had french toast. We both enjoyed. My only critique is the Hollandaise sauce was not rich and pronounced enough for me when it should be the main attraction of the dish. Overall a great meal with great staff. We will definitely be back to explore other menu items. read more

Absolutely the best Bloody Mary!!! Great food - bring a friend for a wonderful experience breakfast or lunch. Love this restaurant!!!

This bad review hurts , as I have been eating at First Watch for a very long time. I also understand the fact there is employee shortages everywhere. But this morning by far the worst experience I have ever had at any First Watch , the server was young & nice but was a horrible server. The food came out & both of the English muffins weren't even toasted & the turkey sausage wasn't even fully cooked they were still cold , server came back said "I'm not even sure what to do" Manager came over wasn't much older he said he would take of our food & bring all new English muffins & turkey sausage 15-20mins later we just walked out , we will go back eventually but not for sometime. Hopefully people decide to start working again I know a ton of restaurants are short staffed read more

Kiki's was our favorite breakfast location but now it is here. The million-dollar pancakes are awesome!

I've been to this location several time and never got what I could not call bad service but no service. 10-13-19 10:51am taryn table 9365/1. I got my order and the server had very little personality and after the order she drop a pot of coffee on the table and never came back until she handed me the bill. I had to ask the seater for a refill of ice tea and you would figure the waitress would rush to do it but that was not the point. Big props to the seater host as they was the winning factor in this visit to bad the server was missing in action the entire time. read more

We've been to First Watch in Lake Mary often, and to the Mitchell Hammock location twice. They're both busy on weekends, expect a wait, but much more relaxed and quiet on the week day mornings. Menu selection changes with the season, but plenty to select from, so fresh and good, never disappoints. read more

A business colleague and I have been trying out the First Watch restaurant locations around town. This time Oviedo, since we'd dined in the Waterford Lakes, University and Mills Ave locations. Our server was fantastic, very friendly and helpful. He provided us with fresh brewed, decaffeinated coffee and regular half-and-half. We each ordered the 2 for You. I had the Roast Beef & Havarti and a cup of the Tomato Basil. Both were so very good that I couldn't stop. I usually bring half of my meal home; but, today I ate it all. My dining partner had a Cobb Salad and the Soup of the Day, which escapes my memory; but, he seemed to enjoy it very much. We talked business, family, aging, the new developments in the area; and, plan to get together again in the next 6-to-8 weeks. Good lunch, great spot - but, get there early if you want to find a place to park. read more

Went to Popeye's today. Had to wait 45 minutes in drive thru line. Ordered nuggets. Tasted dry, like they had been cooked a long time before. They were out of bbq sauce. Second time in a row they've been out of it. The biscuit was hard. It had probably a long time out of the oven. Only two emoloyees working at lunchtime. Should not even be open. read more

Let me say this place is amazing! We can for breakfast to celebrate my birthday and it was a GREAT pick. Our server, Shatia, was very patient with my family of 5. She took her time to answer questions and explain menu options. I decided on the Crab Omelette, one of the summer specials! It was amazing. Every bite had crab, and vegetables. Hubby ordered the smoked salmon frittata, and I was skeptical that he would not like it however, to my surprise, he ate every bite with no complaints! My girls ordered French Toast, and let me say, this was one of the best French toast I've had! Lastly, my baby ordered the whole wheat chocolate chip pancake, again, no complaints! 5-stars for me! read more

We had been to other First Watch in South Florida, and we had really liked it, but this time we were disappointed: 1) I asked whether the açaí used for the bowl had sugar or whether it was unsweetened. Server gave me a bit of an attitude bc she would have to "go to the back to check". She never came back with a clear answer. 2) the coffee was undrinkable: it wasn't fresh and it tasted like "old coffee" (the one you leave standing all day and then reheat). We left the whole cups of coffee full, and when we complained at the register, they still made us pay for it! Our experience may have been such because the place is still a bit new. We hope customer service improves because the food is generally good, but until then we won't be back again. read more

My husband and I went to this location for lunch today. This was our second visit since they opened. I walked in, and told the hostess that we'd like to sit outside and that my husband was already out there. She smiled and said no problem, and walked menus to our table. We chose to sit outside because we had our dog with us. There were two other parties outside and other outdoor tables that were empty. We sat out there for 20 minutes after we received our menus, and no one else came outside to check on the other parties or to take our order. No drinks, no water, nothing past getting the menus when we first arrived, so we decided to leave. We didn't want to make a fuss, so we didn't go back in requesting to be served. I am disappointed, and hope that the issue is addressed with the hostess. We ended up going to a local small business bakery, where we were greeted instantly and warmly. read more

1) kale tonic is really refreshing, love it always 2) my poached eggs were extremely overcooked... super disappointing :'( that's why i'm writing the review, bc the poached eggs were more like hard boiled eggs. very sad because i really wanted poached eggs overall this location is okay ... the farm stand tacos were amazing. still crying over my poached eggs ... read more

We were seated very quickly and the service was excellent. The inside of this establishment is very nice because of the decor on the wall and the light fixtures are homey. I ordered the avocado toast and it was delicious . The avocados were fresh and the seasoning helped to cut the savorinesses of it all, and the eggs were warm and cooked very well. The only issues I had was that is that the water is a little odd tasting and that one of my party members got hot chocolate and it took a some time to come out. read more

The food is awesome! Extremely fresh my favorite would have to be the avocado toast. The coffee is delicious if you combine it with the banana nut pancakes. I must say though I was disappointed with the carrot cake pancakes.Overall it was a great experience the food was amazing and reasonably price. read more

We ordered the FarmHouse and The Ham and Gruyere and they were fantastic. The Kale Tonic is refreshing and probably ordered twice from my behalf, haha! Everything was cooked perfectly and our server Taryn was incredible. She had all tables full and still took very good care of us with what we needed. This location is extremely busy so make sure to be prepared to wait! Don't let that stop you from coming there is something magical about this spot. A MUST if you're stopping by Oviedo, Florida! You won't regret it! read more

Wish I had taken a pic of our delicious lunch the other day! Crab and avocado on toast with two eggs. Cooked perfectly, a generous amount of crab meat. Tia our waitress was so efficient and professional. The establishment is immaculate and even the restrooms!! Employees are well trained and very polite. Looking forward to another visit to First Watch! read more

The sandwich was good. Soup was good. Waitress was very nice. It was packed. Always be prepared for it to be busy. Which means it is very loud and everyone is yelling to hear each other. I always have to turn my hearing aids completely off. read more

We ordered the french toast, breakfast tacos, and an omlette. The staff was friendly and we liked the food but we were disappointed with the experience. We put ourselves on the virtual wait list which said 20-30 minute wait. When we arrived 20 minutes after joining the waitlist and checked in, they said it would be an additional 20-25 minutes which we weren't expecting, but I understand it can happen on a weekend. When we sat down, one of the coffee mugs was stained with coffee like it hadn't been cleaned. The couple at the table next to us asked for a new mug as well because theirs had lipstick on it. Unfortunately, I don't know if we can call it a rare mistake if it happened to two tables within a few minutes of each other. When it was time to get our food, one person at our table received their dish 15-20 minutes before the other 2 people got their food. It was our first time here and we probably wouldn't come back based on one too many things not being great. read more

I gave this restaurant 5 stars because of the following: 1.) Food quality - excellent; fresh ingredients and caters to people with special dietary restrictions 2.) Food quantity - excellent; good value for the money 3.) Service - excellent; fast and friendly wait staff 4.) Ambiance - excellent; clean, plenty of space, I would recommend if you're looking for a fresh place to eat for breakfast or brunch. read more

I had a wonderful experience at this place. We came here by mistake looking for another breakfast place near here. We had a 5 minutes wait time. The restaurant was packed. Food was amazing. My husband has the Monterrey Sandwich. I had the Elote Mexican Street. The right amount in both plates and the flavors were magnificent. Definitely coming back. Grapefruit juice a must. Thank you for a wonderful service. read more

First Watch - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Oviedo, Florida

This location recently opened, and I have to say it is beautifully constructed and decorated. We ate here at around noon on a Saturday, and we did not even have to wait for a table. The food was delicious and the service was great! We experienced a small hiccup (they forgot the avocado on my sandwich) and the mistake was very quickly resolved. Our server was great and very attentive. Overall, this is a great location! The high ceilings can make it get a little loud-- so if you're dining with someone who is hard of hearing at a peak rush time, it may make conversation a little difficult. Overall, a great experience and great food! Highly recommend. read more

I've been eating at this chain for several years now. It's a blessing to have one in Oviedo now. All of their food is fresh, they offer cage free eggs, superfoods and more healthy options. Always use the Yelp waitlist and get your name on the list. You can always wait, enjoy the cucumber water and sample coffee. read more

Today was an enjoyable first visit with my daughter from out of town. Service and flavor of our meals were both outstanding. My only complaint is that there were 2 managers visible but just standing around. No interaction with their guests...no touching tables, not even a thank you as I walked past them to leave. I Thanked Them and got no response!! With so many choices of where to go, the Management could be more welcoming...both male and female were cold. Saturday Aug 8, 2020 from 10a-11a. It's the little things that can make or break an experience. read more

Atmosphere simple, people super friendly (in a good way), food was delicious and prices were fair. What more could you want?

First of all, let me say that the service was friendly, prompt, and charming. The restaurant was clean, the bathrooms were clean, and overall it was a nice experience. My biggest complaint is really with the lunch items. And it is not so much a specific complaint as it is a general disappointment with the quality of the lunch items when compared to the breakfast items. I had the ham and gruyere sandwich, which was nice but overly buttered. It made it quite messy to eat, and also seemed like it did not receive the proper amount of Dijon. Now I have been to First Watch multiple times for breakfast. This was my first time ordering a lunch item. And while my overall experience was nice, I simply believe First Watch has one of those places you should probably go for breakfast. read more

There is nothing more annoying than when people give unreasonable reviews and expectations to a restaurant that has been open just barely 3 weeks. Everyone is still in training. Yes the kitchen is slow and servers are learning the menu. But FW never disappoints. How about holding your opinions until they have been open several months. read more

Friendly greeting and service to start the morning off..... Server was on point with our drink order and info of the new menu..... Food menu was great even tho we want some substitutes and they were able to handle my pickiness..... All in all, I'm definitely coming back to enjoy a delicious meal, morning or lunch..... read more
