I've been drooling looking at this bacon all the time and now when I finally ordered it I'm mad it's nasty and dry. I kept saying I could make it myself. The service in here was crazy to pickup and call in a order alone, they were busy I get it but aren't y'all always busy? Idk I think blaming busy on bad service is old now. The French toast was good though, but idk if it's good enough to bring me to wanting to try something else. Just off the strength of the mission to order, wait and pick it up. To still have it cold. Eh Stars for the toast if it came hot because we waited! read more

Asked for utensils they forgot to put in the bag and my the works omelette has sour cream they also forgot it . Disappointed! They need to check the orders better . I will keep on ordering and going back but I will check the bag before leaving the restaurant next time . read more

First Watch is my favorite restaurant in Pembroke Pines. It's a reliable spot for breakfast or lunch. When friends visit from out of town, I know they will find something delicious to eat there, which is why I take them. If there's a wait, it may indicate a line of people, but that only reinforces my positive opinion of First Watch. read more

Never a bad experience! First watch always hits that homemade lunch or breakfast craving. The Monterey Club is my go to! Ask them to make it grilled and you'll never want it any other way. So delicious! Especially when paired with the tomato basil soup. You'll notice they are always busy but that's just because it's that good. If you haven't given them a try you really should. read more

The food is delicious! If I remember correctly, I ordered the inspired italian and it was great. The outside is egg and the inside has peppers and sausage, and it's seasoned well. The bread on the side came pre-buttered and they provided what tasted like jelly to spread on it and it complimented the meal well. I ordered a cup of fruits on the side and it had pineapples, blueberries, and grapes, and cantaloupes. I wanted to sit outside and they were really accommodating and friendly at the front desk and just cleaned up a table to allow me to sit there. I would definitely recommend you come here for a meal. However, the only downside is that my server didn't really care to check up. She came to give the food and give the receipt. No random checking in to see if i'm good or enjoying the food as the waitress who was serving the table next to us did. It's not really a bother to me but it was just something notable if you're really big on A1 customer service. read more

The name is Des. It was not the first time we are served by Des. Today was different. Excellent. It was above and beyond. I want to emphatically acknowledge that today's service was superb. And all was because of Des. In addition, the food, the place, the location is very good. All I have are praises. I regularly go for brunch with my partner. Always recommend the place to my friends. I wish well for this business. Thanks! Luis Cruz read more

Magalie is an amazing manager and she is leading this store correctly. The food was fresh and tasty! Crispy bacon juicy sausage and cheesy eggs ! I really get farm to table service when I visit first watch, last but not least the kale tonic I can't visit first watch sjthiut read more

Love coming here for breakfast. Service is great and food is good. Eggs Benedict never disappoints, and with their potato hash is delicious. read more

Our first time back in over a year! The "community" table is now being used to store pick up orders off to the side and the other tables in the dining room are spaced out. We noticed that they no longer leave a bowl of sugar and creamer on the table but will bring you individual bowls filled with creamers and sugars if you order coffee. We were seated in the little alcove off to the side and were thinking that we were going to be forgotten. We noticed that they had taken 2 tables out of there which made it nice and spacious in that corner. We lucked out with Emily who was really awesome and checked on us often to make sure we were okay. I got an email a couple of months ago showcasing their Purple Haze drink and described it as having a "hint" of lavender. I love the color purple and had to try it, lol. It took a couple of sips to get used to because the lavender flavor was more than a "hint" but it was actually pretty good! My husband who usually doesn't like flavored drinks ended up drinking most of it. My husband's blueberry multigrain pancake was HUGE! The side of potatoes and onions were flavorful and delicious! I usually douse my potatoes in ketchup but didn't need to do that. My Floridian French Toast looked different than in the past but was still yummy. I love how their fruit is so fresh! Since we were there fairly early in the morning, I felt pretty comfortable with the social distancing when it was time to pay. Usually there are a lot of people standing around either waiting to pay or waiting to be seated. I would feel very comfortable returning! read more

Great summer menu, great service, great food. Highly recommended. Perfect for breakfast or brunch.

The food was amazing, and the workers were incredibly friendly. The food arrived quickly and was incredibly tasty. Everything was clean and delicious. I've also tried the Morning Meditation juice, and it's such a refreshing way to start the day. You can really taste the quality in every bite and sip. read more

I love first watch and this was my first time visiting this location. We got seated quickly as we joined the waitlist beforehand, which I think is one of the best features of this restaurant. Our server was great, very attentive, and patient with our special requests. The eggs Benedict were great well cooked and tasty. My favorite were the cinnamon chip pancakes which was a season special. Overall great experience, would recommend for a nice breakfast with family. read more

I've been to a couple "first watch" places but this one was maybe my favorite. Service was quick and super friendly, the I side isn't huge which makes it feel cozy, and the food was delicious as always. read more

Where do I start? Our server didn't even take the opportunity to introduce herself/ greet us. Menus were dropped on the table. Secondly, my food was served was after the rest of my table. Thirdly the check was printed and placed on our table without even asking if we needed or wanted to order anything else. Absolutely no training/etiquette in the customer experience sector of the food service industry. read more

Stacy was amazing and kept good attitude,even being under pressure Stacy kept her cool. I noticed her walking back and forth between the bar and lobby taking clients multitasking under staff . Needless to say everyone kept a great attitude. Food was amazing as well . read more

Good food and service. I wish they'd add more to the menu but it gets the job done. I'll definitely keep going.

I came here for brunch with a friend. Got the power wrap and a purple haze. And it was pretty good! Our server was attentive. I wanted to have a light meal as well because I ate prior. But this I got to finish it all! And it was a good pick me up. read more

What can I say about First Watch. I like it but don't love it. It's overrated imo. It's the kind of place I go to only if/when someone else wants to go for some reason. I've tried several things on both their breakfast and lunch menus so I've given it a fair chance. I'm still not blown away like I thought I would be considering the super long waits and the prices. Honestly I enjoy Cracker Barrel's breakfast more and it's 1/3 of the cost. The one thing I will say is great is the Belgian waffle & the million dollar bacon. Love the waffle. I also like the Morning Mediation drink. It's beets, lemon, orange, turmeric and ginger and it's very refreshing. I've had the kale tonic but it's not for me. Everything else I have had is...meh. First Watch isn't a bad option if you happen to be nearby and there's no wait. read more

The Elevated Egg sandwich was incredibly yummy and I loved that I could opt for salad as side even though it was breakfast! The portion was quite generous and the service was excellent. I've been to a few other locations, but I really enjoyed this one. read more

The experience was good. I do not have anything to elaborate on in regards to my visit. Everything went as planned and if you want a traditional American meal, I recommend First Watch. read more

We have been to multiple First Watch locations and always enjoy the food. There is a wide variety of options on the menu which is great. For some reason the server was rushed even though the restaurant was pretty empty on a Friday about 10:30 am. Overall the food is good. We do recommend and we will be coming back. read more

Service is terrible. The waiters all look like they are annoyed and irritated. You can't ask for anything without feeling like you're doing too much. Food comes out cold for whatever reason and the coffee tastes like dirty water. Used to love this place but waste of money now a days read more

The hostess greeting us very nice and seated us right away. The place was fairly busy and sometimes there is a wait. We ordered lemon ricotta pancakes, avocado toast and 2 kale tonic juices that were very good. Everything was excellent except the egg was a bit runny and I ordered it over medium. The white was too runny and they never seem to cook it enough. The server was pretty good although I felt like he was somewhat annoyed by us and we didn't complain or ask for anything difficult. read more

Had an early dentist appointment and decided to grab a bite here since it's been a while. Always loved First Watch for the health options but always because the food is well prepared. I highly suggest joining the waitlist to avoid a long wait time, it gets pack quickly. As soon as you want in you're greeted by the hostess that are super friendly and welcoming. As you look around everyone is smiling and enjoying their breakfast. Such a calm and peaceful ambiance every time I come here. Since it's been a while my boyfriend was undecided on what he wanted to get apart from his go to. Our waiter was so nice and patient and even recommended some items. She's definitely good at what she does because she recommended his favorite things lol. To start I got the Spiked Lavender lemonade which I loved and presentation was so cute. It definitely isn't too strong just enough for a good brunch vibe. Also got the Honey Caramel crunch ice coffee, I loveeeed it. The toffee crumble on top was the star. I got to eat my go to meal here, the Farm stand breakfast taco. The chicken and chorizo compliment each other so well and I add some cholula hot sauce and it becomes even better!! If you don't get the tacos you definitely need to get the million dollar bacon, you won't be disappointed...trust me! read more

First Watch - the place where I had my last supper. Or more accurate, our last meal dining in a restaurant prior lockdown thanks to coronavirus. On a Saturday, we added ourselves on the Yelp app's waitlist. When we arrived, we waited a maximum of five minutes. Truth is this waitlist saved us and I definitely recommend it to all. Once sat, we were provided with menus. Right away, we knew what we wanted to drink. I went for standard coffee, while my boyfriend ordered a seasonal drink on their menu: the Blue Booster. There was a bit of an issue with the Blue Booster. Apparently they ran out of some of the base for it only for the manager to find out that there was some sent to them from the Hollywood store. Thanks to that, my boyfriend managed to have his seasonal drink. He enjoyed it immensely. I took a sip of it and passed on it. Way too tart for my liking. In terms of food, we went for the Chickichanga and the market hash. The Chickichanga is apparently a First Watch original. It consists of whipped eggs with spicy all-natural white-meat chicken, chorizo sausage, green chilies, cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese, onions and avocado, all rolled up into a flour tortilla. You also have sides of fruit and potatoes. Really though - let's call a spade a spade. Chickichanga, you are heaven sent! Not to say that my market hash wasn't tasty, but I much preferred my boyfriend's dish and it took all my willpower to not fight him over it. My market hash was composed of two cage-free eggs atop seasoned potatoes, house-roasted Crimini mushrooms, zucchini, shallots, red peppers, baby spinach, melted mozzarella and herbed goat cheese. It came with a side of whole grain artisan toast. For this meal, I had been asked how I wanted my eggs and I said over easy. Let me tell you that they did this just right. It was gorgeous seeing the fork go into the egg, breaking it apart, and having some goo all over the hash. Yum. My only regret is that I couldn't finish my food, but honestly that's a many splendid thing. It means the portions are massive and well worth their price. Will definitely go again, but next time... eyes on you Chickichanga. Or maybe pancakes? We will see! read more

I instantly loved the vibe of this place as soon as I walked in, not just the aesthetic decor but the food was literally all so amazing. Super busy but the service was still so quick. I am definitely going back and I recommend it to everyone for sure! read more

Love ,love, love this place!! I've been wanting to come here everytime I come to Broward. We finally made it for breakfast and made reservations for the wait online( I highly recommend). When we arrived we still had to wait a little. Place is so popular it was a revolving door. Every table was filled. When we finally sat we ordered a round of coffee for everyone and 2 bloodymarys. Bloodymarys came dressed with crisp bacon and water came in a vintage bottle. Loved that. We were a family of 8 including 2 birthday kids. The menu was fabulous and even had lunch options available to please everyone's craving. I had the avocado toast on gluten free bread and a side of turkey sausages. Kids had chocolate chip pancakes with bacon and eggs with toast and bacon. Both came with a side of fruit. Around the table we had 2 parma skillets hash (Italian flavors and spices and cheese), a skillet hash market (veggies), a superfood kale salad (amazing flavors and a MUST HAVE) and the traditional breakfast with wggs,bacon, toast, and potatoes. Dead silence at our table, even the kids. When I tell you Everything was good, I really mean everything was good. We would have it all again with no regrets. I Love this place and would come back again and again the menu is so good. Eat it all here...nothing is bad, everything is Great!!! read more

I have been coming here for years but no longer will after my last visit. Horribly staffed with teenagers leading the place, running around like chickens with their heads cut off. Rolling their eyes and trying to blame the customers. Multiple guests were shocked by the audacity and lack of training of the staff. One of the waitresses even refused to give her name for a review, knowing she did a horrible job. Doesn't help that the only manager on duty is the one in the kitchen "Ozzie". Horrible customer service when he finally had time to speak to us. Additional Review****** When I ordered through Uber eats they flat out gave my order away and told me "Yeah people take a lot of our food. That's happening a lot." LOL. This is what you call running a business? Yikes. read more

Good breakfast with lots of healthy options. Whether you are looking to eat a heavier meal or have something on the lighter side they will options for you. Very good beverages also. Coffee was very good read more

This restaurant is one of my favorite places to eat lunch. However, the meal I had this afternoon was an exception to the normal standard I had come to expect. I ordered a sandwich and bowl of soup. The Market veggie sandwich was really skimpy. There was very little zucchini, like almost none, and few mushrooms as well. It was mostly spinach and cheese. I didn't taste the pesto and, it didn't even cover the bread on one side. :0( The soup was still delicious, however, I was never given a soup spoon, so I had to eat it using my teaspoon. After two requests, the proper spoon was provided. Not a big deal, however all the other times before when I ordered it, I was always given a soup spoon at the time it was served. Ok, what changed? Hopefully, just a bad day. The sandwich was basically flat. Not like the ones I received before and not at all like it is portrayed in the photo. Must have been just that sandwich, as the lunchmeat one my friend had was stacked except, they forgot the mayo and she did not receive a soup spoon as well. Come on, do better! Your First Watch, one of the best more healthier options we have in this city! read more

Manager did not look for a valid solution for what issues I have had at restaurant . Server Adi rude and manager defending her employee for being rude to my mother and not bring water to the table. The cook was outstanding the food hot temperature and flavor but Adi stay away from her . She doesn't bring water to the table . She doesn't tell you how long for the food to come out . I think the General Manager of this location should look at Adi and current manager whom work for 2 years not finding solution for customer . read more

I used to be such a fan of this place--especially in Virginia--but lately it's become meh. I ordered a Farmhouse hash and while it looked truly delicious, the potatoes under were burned to a crisp. I asked for replacements that ended up being half-burned, half-ok. For $17, my food shouldn't be burned twice. Needless to say, pretty sure this is my last go at First Watch. I'll take a mom and pop breakfast place any day over this. read more

It appears that over the years the quality of the food has diminished. I haven't asked but it appears that the avocado on the avocado toast is no longer fresh. It looks and tastes like prepackaged guacamole. The food took some time to get to the table although it was a weekday. The space has been remodeled but the food doesn't seem to match the new look. Didn't order the coffee this time but tried a seasonal watermelon drink that the server recommended that tasted more like cucumber than anything else. Slightly disappointed compared to my previous review three years ago. read more

Great food selection and one of the best servers is Akeem. It's packed at times but well worth the wait.

One of my best friends has always told me how great First Watch is. So I decided to catch up with a friend today for brunch at this restaurant. And I must say I was not disappointed. I utilized the waitlist option that was on their website, so as soon as I arrived I was seated immediately. Our waitress was very pleasant, professional, and knowledgeable of the menu items. She gave a great suggestion on trying the morning meditation, and I was in love with it. The sweetness of the agave, the tanginess of the ginger and turmeric juice made it a refreshing drink. I ordered the frittata rustica and it was so filling and flavorful. My friend enjoyed her multi grain pancakes with potatoes, eggs, and sausage. The service was quick and efficient, The food was hot and tasty, and the overall price was great. As always I will definitely be returning. read more

Let me say that I luv OTHER First Watch locations, especially West Palm Beach by the outlets!! But Lauderdalehill is a NO GO. I've come here since they opened a few years ago, way prior to the pandemic. I keep trying to give them a chance because I luv the food, I can only come here without my hubs because he refuses after the horrible kitchen/management service the last 2 x. Today I sat at the community table now that it's open again, only one seated there. Waited a few to order, no biggie. 1 drink and avocado toast, easy peasy. People being sat all around me and ordering...it wasn't until the table with 3 people that sat AFTER me that ordered MAJOR food and mine still wasnt there did I get perturbed. I understand shit happens, if this was the 1st or even 2nd time this has happened I wouldn't be taking the time out to write this, but its 12pm on Tuesday. And don't gimme any lip about staffing issues...I work retail, I know exactly what's going on and there's plenty of workers in here, this is poor management. Waitress knew I was pissed so they gave me a free take home drink. My hubs is going to say, "I told you so". I read more

I am extremely impressed. Amazing online ordering process and pick up was on point. I couldn't believe it. I have had some bad experiences with the food at other locations and I must say it was simply PERFECT! Wow! Nothing was missing. Nothing was burn. Nothing was over cooked and every single item was cooked to perfection and tasted great. I am seriously super pleased with the entire process today at FW in Pembroke 12598 Pines Blvd. Excellent 5 stars and 10's! read more
