    Ngoc H.

    We were nearby after playing pickleball and decided to have breakfast. This was easily down the street. The ambiance was relaxed and not too busy on a holiday. We were seated a right away and service was good. The food was good and better than expected. Overall would recommend.

    SoCal Breakfast Hash
    Kami M.

    We had an awesome Sunday morning at First Watch! Definitely recommend joining the online waitlist--it saved us a ton of time, especially since it gets busy. While we waited, they offered complimentary coffee, which was surprisingly really good and a nice touch. I ordered the Million Dollar Bloody Mary, and it was bold, flavorful, and came with a delicious strip of bacon--no complaints there! The Morning Meditation juice might honestly be the best thing ever--super refreshing and the perfect balance of citrus and beet. For food, we tried the BEC Sandwich, Tri-Fecta, and SoCal Breakfast Hash. Everything came out hot, fresh, and full of flavor. You really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. The staff was friendly, the service was fast, and they have outdoor seating too, which is perfect when the weather is nice. Bonus points: you can pay right at your table, which makes things super easy. We'll definitely be back!

    Over medium egg
    Maria Monica M.

    Our coffee served was warm at best. When mentioned, our server immediately brought us hot coffee. Our breakfast plates were mixed, as my plate was served with my husband's bacon and his plate was served with my sausage. My breakfast potatoes were overcooked to the point that half the potatoes were uneditable(see pictures). Potatoes were definitely reheated but the server assured us that they didn't do that there. I asked for eggs, over medium and received extra cooked eggs. One egg yolk was completely cooked through, the other slightly less cooked. The restaurant was clean and staffed appropriately. Our server was attentive to us and politely listened to our concerns. We were given a discount coupon.

    BLTE, Honey Chipotle Chicken Hash and Morning Meditation
    Zandri N.

    Just tried brunch from their seasonal menu. The double hash was super tasty and the carne asada tacos are flavourful. The last time we were here (about a month ago) we had a sticky table issue and we were sad to note that the same issue still persists. Our waitress says it's just the furnishing and they're replacing it, which is probably true however our table had some obvious dirty spots and we never received a cloth to wipe it down despite asking for one.

    Lemon ricotta
    Cristal R.

    Had the lemon ricotta pancakes. Have not had these since Covid! The recorta scoop was so delicious soft and creamy not tart just perfection. Lemon flavor was fresh and refreshing. It is a pretty big size might share it next time but it's too good to share. I ordered thru the app and it was ready on time and came with everything requested. Tastes as good as dinning inside. Staff was amazing as always and food was just right.

    Egg Benedict with smoked salmon... so good! So much flavor in the potatoes!
    Alisa G.

    This place was awesome! There was a 10 minute wait but it went fast... sat down and got coffee right away. I loved the decor and lighting and it was a nice open space. It was cool to be able to see the kitchen as well. I really loved the wholesome food- the ketchup didn't have high fructose corn syrup! The quality ingredients really make this place amazing and worth the stop! 10/10 will go again !

    Smallish eat in restaurant in a strip mall on Carefree Hwy near the I17…read more Got there at 6 pm and all 12 tables but one were filled, mostly with seniors. Almost all were gone by 6:30. Brisk take out business. The two of us were seated at a table for 10! The only table left. Fried wontons and sweet and sour sauce were brought to the table. We ordered the vegetable egg rolls as an appetizer. Huge, piping hot and no peanut paste which as someone with a peanut allergy I'm grateful for, to say the least. Had the beef chow fun, sesame chicken and BBQ pork egg fu yung. Waitress commented...that's a lot of food for the two of you. She was right. The portions are gigantic. Could easily feed six people. Beef chow fun was good. Wide rice noodles and beef that had some texture and chew to it. Not tough, but not so tenderized that the texture is mush. Sesame chicken is excellent. Plating is poor though. It's just the sesame chicken. They could have added a sprig of broccoli and julienned carrots just for a better visual and contrast. Egg fu yung. The east coast style. Not sure what the deal is out here in Phoenix but most places make an egg patty and put the ingredients on the top. Pretty awful. Not at Dao. They make it the right way with fluffy egg patties and the ingredients INSIDE the patty. BBQ pork was there...but not enough to my liking. Three huge patties. Sauce isn't your typical "brown" goopy sauce though. It's more like a plum sauce. Different. But good. Overall, definitely one of the better Chinese restaurants in the Phoenix area. Overall cost was $55 with a beer. And a ton of food. Had two more meals from it at home. Downside? I had to ask the server for spoons. How were we supposed to get the food from the serving plates to our plate? Fried rice is very poor. Rice in a tiny bit of soy sauce and some microscopic egg. Disappointing. Add some diced veggies at least and bean sprouts. Lots of containers for the leftovers, of course. Overall, we'll come back. Huge improvement on what most Chinese restaurants in the Valley are.

    After having not been to Dao Kitchen since COVID we decided to get dinner there tonight…read more We were pleased to see that the inside had been remodeled since our last visit and it was much more appealing to the eye. We placed a to go order for a number of dishes including an order of cashew chicken with no brown sauce. We were told it would take 15 to 20 minutes so we sat at the bar and had a couple drinks and they offered a bowl of wonton chips while we waited. The food was ready quicker than 15 or 20 minutes which was a nice surprise. We got home and unfortunately the cashew chicken came with the brown sauce the I asked be left off. I noticed that it wasn't specified on the receipt even though I ordered it. I immediately called the restaurant and they apologized and offered to replace the dish without the brown sauce and since if wasn't far from my house I agreed. I drove to the restaurant to pick it up and came home and while there was no brown sauce now there were no cashews...not what I asked or paid for. Now I'm afraid to order to go at Dao unless I check our food before we leave the restaurant. I rated this restaurant 3 stars because the food was flavorful but I couldn't get the dish I ordered or paid for.

I don't know what to get cause I get food pizza in a long lot of wings. I like the wings a lot of wings I have to choose.

    We live within a mile of this location so we first started doing takeout for this location and…read morequickly found that the kitchen doesn't take the time to count the wings and were often shorted in our order and had to call to complain which required us to drive back and pick up missing wings...unacceptable. For awhile we stopped doing takeout because being shorted wings just continued so we just went and ate dine-in. I would say we don't go that often but every time we go we order the same thing 1 or 2 dozen wing and EVERYTIME the order is correct. So I wonder why the take out orders are 3 out of 4 times we ordered short. The most recent time this happened was this past Monday so I immediately called the location and was told that only the server manager was available and that she would have the general manager, Shane, call who would be at work on Wednesday. Here it is Thursday and no call so I am done with giving them a try. If you kitchen staff don't want to take the time to count wings on take-out orders...I get it... then through in some extra wings to make sure you are giving the minimum order that the customer paid for. Shorting the customer does not send the right message of loyalty.
