Had a wonderful experience at First Watch with the entire family--grandma, aunts, cousins, grandkids, and even great-grandkids. It's not easy finding a place that can comfortably accommodate a large, multi-generational group, but First Watch made it feel easy and enjoyable. The atmosphere was bright and welcoming, the food was fresh and delicious, and there was something on the menu for everyone. Service was patient and friendly, which made a big difference with a big group. It was the perfect setting for quality family time over a great breakfast/brunch. Definitely a place we'd return to for another family gathering. read more

I ordered the butter grits with smoked ham, and I was very disappointed with my experience. They gave me only one small scoop of grits, which looked like a child's portion. To make matters worse, the grits were hard and didn't taste fresh at all. I sent the food back, but I was told that one scoop was the standard serving size. I was so frustrated that I threw the meal in the trash. The customer service was disappointing, and no one seemed to care about resolving the issue. Unfortunately, I will never return to this location again. read more

A group of friends and I came here for brunch on New Years Day. The place was bustling and we were told that the wait could be up to 1 hour or more. They were definitely booked and overwhelmed. We waited it out and were seated in a semi-private area. I wanted to try the Purple Haze juice, which was made with butterfly pea tea, but they were out of this. I was able to try the Millionaire Bacon, which was incredibly delicious. The Bacon is cooked with maple and has an almost candied quality to it. It was crisp to perfection and simply addicting. There was a Double Bacon Parmesan Hash special, which looked and sounded amazing so I ordered that. This was chock full of potatoes, onion, Parmesan cream and cheese, with a fried egg, arugula, and shredded Parmesan on top. There were also 2 pieces of bacon, but I wanted much more, especially because Double Bacon was in the name. The Egg was perfectly cooked with a slight crunch at the edges and well seasoned. The Potatoes were actually crispy with melty Parmesan on top. This was irresistibly cheesy and full of wonderful flavor. It was a very hearty and tasty meal. I think the addition of Millionaire Bacon would elevate the dish and make it even more enjoyable. The service could have been better, but I think it was because they were extremely busy and a lot was going on. The host was gracious and apologetic about the long wait, really doing his best to get us seated more quickly. However, our waitress was a bit curt and seemed like she couldn't be bothered by extensive questions about the dishes and unlisted prices. I would not rush to return. read more

For the very first time, we went to a First Watch and did not have to wait for a table. And it was a Sunday after church. The place was filled but there wasn't a wait nor a long line. But we did a lot of waiting after being seated. Service was not great. Twice, I had to grab another waitress to get something because ours was nowhere in sight and had not been for a while. Otherwise, the food was fine. The pancakes are enormous. The French toast was yummy. The roast beef sandwich and omelette were good. There were four of us and we averaged about $20 each for our meal including tax and tip. read more

**Vegetarian Friendly** Big fan of First Watch, and was thrilled Plantation/Sunrise got another location! this particular location did a garage door style sunroom patio for when the weather is better. Cannot wait til winter rolls around! This location was on the bigger side compared to other locations - and has great space if you need to have a larger gathering. Our Order: (1) Morning Mediation Fresh Juice - light and refreshing anytime of day! (2) Kale Tonic Fresh Juice - it's a green juice but tastes nothing like a green juice. (3) Purple Haze Juice - (4) Honey Caramel Crunch Iced Coffee - wayyyyyy too sweet. Felt like a dozen donuts squished into a drink. Skip! (5) Lemon Ricotta Pancakes - so light and fluffy! Excellent balance of tangy lemon with the fresh berries. Skip the lemon compote on top if you don't like sweets. (6) Farmhouse Hash - substituted bacon for black beans instead. Very hearty with the eggs. (7) Side of Fresh Potatoes - they were okay, they tasted better in the hash. (8) Side of Biscuits - light and fluffy, crumbled in your mouth! Service was top notch. Everyone was super friendly too. We will be back! read more

Its always a dice roll when I come to this place. Often times I lean more to old school breakfast joints than "elevated" breakfast spots. The service can be good or it can be terrible and I say this after coming here multiple times. The servers can be rude and it loses the appeal of overpaying for breakfast. Kills the vibe TBF I've had delicious food here when I do decide to pass by or when I'm invited They have creative options and my girlfriend loves their pancakes . read more

We've been going since the day this location opened. My wife and I go about 3 times a week (usually after the gym) the staff is always really nice, the food is always consistent, service is good, and prices are fair. My wife says their coffee is really good, I wouldn't know as all I drink is Diet Coke. We've had essentially everything on the menu from the pancakes, the waffles, sandwiches, omelettes, tacos, bowls, seasonal items, my wife gets their special drinks too. Like any restaurant everything won't be perfect, but they will ask and they will do what they can to make it right. The layout is good and most of the chairs are comfortable. I'll put up some pictures read more

We love First Watch for the fresh ingredients and we love the seasonal menu swaps especially the shrimp and grits when they have it. The restaurant's layout at this location is very open where its very farmhouse modern styled. Its perfect to grab a quick, healthy breakfast or lunch, fitting most busy schedules. The servers are always friendly and I really lover their fresh juices and salads. I know depending on the location the Wait Times could be a little long during peak times especially for a larger party but its worth the wait. read more

The staff were rude and awkward towards to The two of us who dinned. The gentleman who seated us was acting like it' was a huge inconvenience to determine what section to sit us in. Additionally , it took about 10 mins before someone came to ask us what we liked. Food was fine. But when we wanted to pay we were ignored again as well by staff. We had to go to the register ourselves and ask to pay. Then they had to find our waitress and it was just... yea. Would I go to first watch again? Oh yea. This location? Heck no. read more

Idk what's going on today but this is the worst french toast I've ever had. Don't waste your time or money. Served in a bowl, no berry compote, no taste at all and cold. Almost as if they used egg whites and let it sit in the batter or something. Idk I won't be retuning. read more

Food is delicious! Love this ambiance in the new location. They even have some cocktails for those who want a drink.

I've been a few times, and it is just okay. The inside is fine, and the food is fine. Don't get the hot chocolate as it tastes like water. The pancake is dry. The avocado toast lacks seasoning. There is always a wait. Boat doesn't smile. Nothing special It is just sitting in a strip mall. I really wanted it to be good because it is close to home, but everything about it is truly just average to mediocre. I've been to three locations, and they are all the same. read more

We usually go to the location by Sawgrass which we still like but thought we would have a taste of the newest one. Apparently it's been open for a month. It is a lot more spacious than the other location and they have some tasty cocktails which the other location doesn't. The food was as good as our usual spot. Betsy was our server and she was attentive and informative. This place was packed but didn't wait long for anything. We will be back. read more
