    Banana pancake
    Jerry H.

    This good breakfast and lunch place has great items to choose from. The restaurant is packed with tables and chairs with warm interior decor. It's just a tight between some tables. Their biscuits n gravy are one of the best in town. Service was friendly and helpful. When it's crowded, service understandably gets a bit slow. We like this popular place. In the weekend morning, expect a wait in line.

    Nice menu with a good selection of sweet (wide selection of pancakes and French toasts) and savory items (eggs, omelets and salads). Restaurant setting is casual and comfortable, and service is always on point. It is also nice that they add seasonal items to their menu. For example, they were featuring Shrimp and Grits in their summer menu. Good solid choice.

    Elote Breakfast Burrito

    Ate here at around 10am on a Friday and it was full! By 11am, there was a wait to be seated. The staff were kind and going as fast as they could. All the food was alright - good. My party got the blueberry pancakes (which lacked flavor but wasn't bad), the Belgium waffle (same thing flavor wise as the pancake) and the elote breakfast burrito. I wasn't mad at the burrito, it tasted good. The worst part of the whole thing was the coffee. My table got the pot of coffee and wow, their plain coffee is baddddd. I've gotten their specialty iced coffees before and they're really good, so their normal hot coffee being so awful is kind of sad. The inside has a lot of tables, and the booth seats are very comfy!

    We have been here before , I alway love the look of the restaurant It's cute and homey reminds me of a diner in Alabama The waiter greeted up right away ! We decided to do the special menu My hubby loved his skillet and as for me my sandwich was way to sweet and I like an even blend of flavors but the honey and the jam were overpowering the rest of the flavors I wouldn't order that again

    Great breakfast brunch spot Parking: easy as it is in a chill strip mall Drinks: no alcohol. Great juice selection Food: great food selection. Breakfast and brunch options for everyone. I went solo this time and had the veggie omelette. It was great and they offer a variety of cheeses Service: pretty good service. Think NY diner... Atmosphere/vibe: chill. Not too crowded Age group: all Bathroom: did not use Return: totally

    Roast beef sandwich

    Food and service were amazing! I attached some photos here for reference of the dishes. Please know, we were a little disappointed to learn that they did not serve mimosas here - turns out they don't have their liquor license like most of the other locations do!

    Breakfast tacos with carnitas. They had a hard and soft taco. Kids bacon and egg my daughter always eats well here. Service was quick as usual and this place is always packed. Checking in ahead on the app is the way to go.

    Elevated egg sandwich with potatoes

    There is always a wait when we go to First Watch. But today it was only 10 minutes for a table for two. Lots of parking in the strip mall lot. The restaurant is always busy and bustling with a bit of noise. Servers were polite and friendly and aimed to please. I ordered my usual Floridian French toast (with fresh fruit and wheat germ) only to find out that they don't offer wheat germ anymore. Sigh. Nevertheless, I enjoyed my meal because they make French toast correctly (with the bread properly soaked in the batter). Hubby had an elevated egg sandwich with avocado and bacon and potatoes. He said the egg and avocado needed some seasoning because they were bland. The juices looked enticing but I could not afford the carbs; so, I washed down my meal with water. Brunch for two was about $30 plus tip.

    The Tri-Fecta® with Belgian Waffle, bacon and two over -easy eggs. This is one of my breakfast favorites at First Watch !

    We have visited all the area First Watch locations but we really like this Plantation spot the best. Staff is friendly and super helpful .Davina is an amazing server & we always feel lucky when we get seated in her section. The food is always out fast and executed correctly every time . Location is always clean and busy but not overwhelmingly busy . We love it!

    Been coming here for years and it never disappoints. Always great sized portions for a fair price and delicious food. The service is quick and friendly. The inside is always nice.

After we placed our order, the food came out at a good speed but then it took very long for our server to come back and check on us and someone else brought us the check. Our Colombian empanadas were delicious. Crisp crunchy cornmeal on the outside with flavorful filling on the inside. Try it with the tangy spicy sauce. My husband and I shared the Paisa Bowl. It was a good size for 2. Came with delicious sausage, steak, chicharron, fried egg, an arepa, a half piece of avocado, and plantains. My favorite was the sausage and the arepa. Unfortunately our medium rare steak was lukewarm. The flavor was good but wish it was hot like the bowl of beans it came with. The chicharron was a bit dry so it was hard to chew for me. The plantains were perfect. Will come back to try more.

The menu items also have cute mob and prohibition-era names like "Untouchables Sliders," "Enforcers'Philly," "Bombshell Chicken," and "Zelda's," and "Capone's" salads. I have come for lunch, for dinner, and after dinner drinks; with just my mom, a few friends, and even a group of 14 ladies celebrating a birthday. The service has a little been slow at times, but the food has always been good and all the servers we've experienced have been friendly. I have especially enjoyed the Bombshell Chicken Sandwich and Hideway's Grilled Cheese. (They have several different grilled cheese options and they are all on sourdough bread either an accompanying cup of tomato soup.) The prices are reasonable and they have a full bar and live entertainment some evenings. Hideaway's is a unique experience; and a fun place to gather. It's easy to get to from anywhere in Plantation and there's lots of free parking. I'm hoping that Hideaways is here to stay!
