    We had brunch recently at First Watch on Sonterra Blvd. Starting with coffee for hubby and myself and hot chocolate for Dad. Hubby had the Breakfast Taco, Dad had the Classic Breakfast with 2 sunny side up, bacon, and potatoes, and I had the Ham and Gruyere Omelette. Everything was well made but we had too much food. Definitely took home leftovers. Great service! Recommend this location.

    Biscuits & Gravy

    First time here with a big group on Sunday. I loved that they were will to accommodate us even though we were a big party. The service was fast and great. The food is your typical breakfast foods. Honestly my omelet was ok, what I loved is my friend order the chocolate chip pancakes and they were AMAZING and fluffy and not to sweet just perfection, if I come back it would be for that!

    One egg à la carte.

    My wife and I took our 2 adult kids out to breakfast yesterday and found First Watch restaurant while looking for Egg and I (which is closed btw). Son and I had pancakes which were huge! Good thing I only got one. Couldn't even finish it. Mine was a little dry and needed lots of butter and syrup. He had blueberry pancakes which he said were good. Wife had a waffle which she described as good also. The best part of the meal was the "million dollar bacon" which I believe was on the appetizer menu. Very tasty and well worth the $8. We had 2 of them. Waitress was very attentive and quick and check out was a breeze, being done online. The place was clean and looked to be recently remodeled ( though the floor in the men's bathroom was a little slippery). We will go again and probably just split a pancake and have more of that bacon!

    Breakfast was so good and service was perfect- the coffee was fresh and tasty- they provide me with no. Dairy creamer which was awesome not many place have oak milk or almond milk. Definitely recommend this restaurant for breakfast! There is a big selection of breakfast foods to choose from & daily specials.

    French Toast and Million Dollar Potatoes

    I had a great experience! My server was Lydia, she was very attentive and all smiles! I got their French toast and loaded breakfast potatoes; it was excellent! The restaurant was very clean and inviting! 10/10 experience!

    Socal Breakfast Hash The B.E.C
    Nataly G.

    My bf and myself love trying out different breakfast spots around north SA. We came across this place since it's down the street from us! I love looking at cleanliness, service, and if quality foods match the price. First things first, walking in, it looks very tidy, very well lit areas, tables are ready with mugs for some coffee. The waiter/waitresses we have had thus far have been prompt, very nice, and helpful. The menu: can be a bit overwhelming in a good way because there is a variety of food with so many different ingredients that they use! You can indulge or have yourself a nice healthy breakfast option. (Carrot cake pancake is a great treat-huge size for just one!) The food: the few things I've tried have been really good with all the different types of flavors it goes into it, I can really appreciate whoever came up with the meal. They usually have a seasonal menu as well, and that's what I love to try. This morning we tried the B.E.C.-bacon, egg, and cheese breakfast sandwich on sourdough, and the so cal hash, both were really good! Fave from the two was the hash! The flavors were amazing! Side note: they have alcohol there as well in case you like to start the weekend early.

    The Market Smash and the Elevated Egg Sandwich
    Jeaux D.

    Looking to assuage a little hunger after a few hours of Saturday morning tennis, the wife and I stopped in for some brunch. We were seated immediately in an auxiliary dining room. After considering many delicious candidates, the Market Smash won out. The wife selected the elevated egg sandwich. We barely started our conversation when the food was delivered. I half expected the waiter to say we knew you were coming and had your order waiting on you. It was less than five minutes. The Market had goat cheese on it with spinach, mushrooms, onions, and potatoes. It was perfectly cooked and very delicious. The wife made a happy plate of her breakfast sandwich. She also ordered the OJ. After tasting it she offered me a sip. It was fresh squeezed and fantastic. Overall, a fine meal and good service. Bin appetit Yelpers!

However, when we arrived (and throughout our meal) the dining room occupancy never reached 50%-fyi! I requested a booth, but we had to switch shortly after we were seated because the table was SERIOUSLY wobbling whenever we touched it. The Calamari was just, meh...maybe because it was prepared unlike I'd ever had before. I ordered the "Stuffed Salmon" and as U can see, it didn't meet expectations-plus it was small for the price. My fiancée ordered the Pasta Flight and immediately discovered that it was more than she'd bargained for. Overall, it was tasty, with the exception of the chicken-which was dry. She also had to request fresh bread because they were all so hard. Also, our entrees were extremely late to arrive, based on the crowd-over 30 minute wait!!! Our waitress was pleasant but apologized a lot for the few issues. The ambiance was elegant & date night-ish, so we may return...

I will say the GPS got a little confused in the route for some reason and I nearly missed an exit and even the entrance (there was some construction going on) There is plenty of parking, but the parking lot was pretty full. You walk up and either walk through the courtyard style Biergarten with tables or you can go inside. It was an unseasonably nice day, so, we opted to sit outside There is a QR code to view the menus. There are entrees and plenty of apps/sharables. There is also a very extensive beer menu. Make no mistake, this is their bread and butter. They boast an imprecise "99 beers on tap." There's local brews, light and dark beers, hoppy, Belgium style, German style, wheat, etc etc etc. if that's not your speed there are cocktails and non-alcoholic options. Our server was fantastic. She was very kind and patient with us. We were constantly checked in on, but not in a hovering way or a pressure to leave. Our food and drinks always came out in a timely manner. She made us feel well taken care of The drinks hit the spot, and the food was tasty. It was definitely a chill vibe/hang. We were there for hours just catching up, and we saw other happy hours, birthday parties, dates, bachelorette parties, etc Some tips: I did order a couple beers that they were temporarily out of, but there are so many beers to pivot to. Also, our server was incredibly helpful in offering other suggestions, similar suggestions, and asking the right questions to help land in the next alternative They are not open Mondays, and they're only open until 11pm Tuesday-Thursday (and Sunday). Friday and Saturday they're open til 1am. Also, on Saturdays and Sunday's they offer brunch from 11am-3pm) The Reuben was surprisingly delicious Cheers!!

It's been a while since have done brunch and o won't be in a hurry to return to brunch specifically The service was superb, we had a great server and he was absolutely on top of everything which was great! Beers were also great as was the mimosa I had and the kids we were with seemed to like their meals which came out last and they said theirs were hot - ours were not unfortunately. I had the Lox eggs Benedict and in retrospect should have sent it back as it was stone cold! My husband and our friend got the biscuits and gravy and also reported that they were cold - it was also served in a bowl which was a bad idea as the biscuits completely soaked up the gravy and resembled oatmeal by the time it hit the table! We got one meal - waffles and chicken to go and the waffles were inedible- poorly mixed, gritty and so much hot sauce in the mixture that they burned the back of the throat - they had to be trashed ! I love this place but won't return in a hurry for brunch - granted multiple dishes with eggs are hard to time right so we ended up with cold food that did however taste good

I remember the burgers being huge unwieldy monsters that required dexterity and at least 5 napkins. Things have changed. I had the guacamole burger this time and everything was absolutely perfect! Burgers come with mayo, mustard, lettuce, tomato, pickle, and onion standard, but you can opt out of whatever you don't like. The amount of guac was well proportioned with the rest of the burger. The bun is hearty enough to withstand the burger and its fillings but definitely NOT thick, heavy, or too much for the sandwich. The sandwich itself is smaller than the over-the-top burgers they used to serve, but they are a great value for the price and a more reasonable serving size, even for a big appetite. Service was with a smile. The only downside is the building itself. While I love the vibe and that so much has changed around this place while the restaurant itself stays the same, it could use a bit of a refresh. It was clean! No complaints there; but a wee bit of paint would not go amiss. Def on my list for my next SA visit.
