Visit Terravita Marketplace to find First Watch. Several of my gal pals went to lunch together at First Watch. This is another popular eatery for the locals and visitors. Staff are excellent and very helpful. We were seated at a large table. We ordered the Cobb salad, the trifecta, the half sandwich and salad, and avocado toast. I also ordered a morning meditation beverage, which is a beet drink with turmeric. The food is fresh and delicious and service is fast. I ordered the half sandwich and half salad. I chose the market veggie sandwich and. honey pecan salad. Both were excellent. Everybody's plate was empty. We were all happy and full. Shared parking lot. read more

They cook in seed oils! My eggs, English muffins, and even my bacon reeked of Wesson oil! This was a to go order , so it wasn't until later that I discovered this sad fact. All this talk about farm fresh, but you don't cook in butter? You use highly processed toxic oil?? Shame on you. The poor English muffin was barely warmed bread, soaked in enough soybean oil to wring it out. No jam, just grease. No butter on the side. The " extra crisp bacon " was still flacid, and stunk so badly of seed oil, ( bacon is FAT, people! WHY??). The eggs were ok , using my own butter. The coffee was good. Getting restaurant food is expensive, and even more so in this day of maximizing profit over quality. But for the love of Pete, use the quality ingredients we are paying for!! I'm frustrated, disgusted, and HANGRY. I'll never come here again. read more

Had a great Cobb salad for lunch. Service was friendly and attentive. They even gave me a free iced tea refill to go. I will definitely return and try their breakfast read more

We had a very nice lunch - the food was good. The service was good and it was a little quiet because it was afternoon. No complaints! read more

My husband called to find out if we could bring our 2 lb dog in a stroller on their patio. Whoever answered the call was so rude to him I had to write this review. I get it that you don't like dogs, but you don't have to be so nasty about it. We will never go to this location ever again. read more

Ordered from this First Watch location via Uber Eats. The store omitted nearly $30 worth of food from our order, and didn't bother to staple a receipt to the bag showing the items we had ordered. Very disappointed. read more

We love First Watch .. we don't love the order we had this past weekend and moreover the canned response given when more than half of our order was missing, ( $30+) and the items with said items we ordered, ( such as the fruit that went with the French Toast and the Million Dollar Potatoes ; the Bacon ; even the cheese that goes on the Chickichanga) BUT we didn't get that.. because we got half of someone else's order and some really bad hollandaise sauce-- inedible. This was a Uber Eats order and when you give a rating on Uber Eats , well it's sort of like , 'who cares .. here is a credit for $20' . How thoughtful and generous considering how expensive this crappy brunch was. It actually was angering. We just wanted a decent breakfast- brunch as we flew in the night before and were late -- no food in the home -- tired and no energy to go out. First Watch never disappoints.. until now and the food wasn't good. PS, good customer service goes a long way. read more

First Watch - Yuck -- not what my husband ordered but decided to try and eat .. we don't know what it is .. and the Hollandaise was inedible :-( Gross - Cafes Near Me - Scottsdale, Arizona

"Fair is Good"?????? That's what the cashier/waitress (not my server) said after asking me how everything was. I said "Fair." She eagerly replied, "Fair is Good!" I said, uh, "fair, is pretty far from good." She said, "well at least it wasn't bad!" I have dined her regularly since it first opened nearly 12 years ago and normally all is really well. Today, I ordered the Power Wrap (great!) and a side of turkey sausage (a common combo for me). The turkey sausage was "off." Not sure if they were undercooked, but Really? Really?? read more

First time I'd had shrimp and grits and, holy moly, it was wonderful! A perfect balance of ingredients (ratio of corn, sausage, onions, shrimp, peppers), not at all greasy. I will certainly be back to order that again. My only gripe-- and I apologize if this sounds trivial-- is that real and actual half and half or cream Is not on the table but one has to ask for it and then wait for it to be delivered. It just bothers me that the default is for an artificial product rather than real. The coffee here is fine But not stand out. Also, strangely, coffee is delivered in a carafe with just enough to fill two cups so it is inevitable that one needs to ask for a new carafe of coffee as soon as the first two cups are filled. read more

We came for a late brunch on a Sunday and enjoyed our meal - we had coupons to use and it seems like we weren't the only ones. I ordered the chickichanga - the flavor was pretty good, chicken and chorizo with some green chilies and cheese. I should've asked what the Vera Cruz sauce was because I'm not a big fan of creamy sauces and it was like a hollandaise sauce so I scraped most of it off. My husband ordered the pumpkin pancakes with sunny side up eggs and sausage and my mother in law got the chicken pesto bowl. They both enjoyed their meals!! Service was great - our waitress kept our water cups full (even though the water didn't taste great). First watch is always a good option when you're wanting brunch and someone may want something a little healthier! read more

We've been coming here for a long time. And we continue to enjoy their food. While it's somewhat expensive, the quality makes it worth it. We went with friends this time. We had three different dishes. Two people ordered the classic eggs Benedict, one ordered blueberry pancakes and one ordered a Spring Special, the Hacienda hash. Everyone enjoyed their selection and the person who ordered the hash said he wished they'd add it to the regular menu. Our server was friendly and attentive as well read more

Been a regular customer for past two years and had a few issues with service over the last couple months. Recently a new manager with a huge ego and rude attitude was there around lunchtime with very disrespectful behavior at first seating us then again at cash register! No surprise that the place was almost empty at noon lunchtime! We have gone there once a week for quite awhile and will never go back! That dude obviously could care less so shame on them for having him in that position!! read more

I absolutely love their seasonal menu. I have tried a few of their seasonal items and have always loved it.

Always one of my favorite places to eat breakfast. I'm glad I found this one tucked up into the corner of Cave Creek away from the busy freeway. I always get the trifecta which includes a waffle, eggs and bacon. Their waffle is light and soft with a little crisp and the butter and syrup combo is everything I look for in a perfect Belgian waffle. My friend tried the new Al Pastor hash and overall it was good but it was a little too chunky to blend. The flavors were a little too lunch style for my breakfast cravings. We got one lemon ricotta pancake to split and it was delicious as always. We got the beef sandwich to go and my brother loved it. Surprisingly their lunch sandwiches are just as good as their breakfasts. read more

The water here tastes disgusting. It's definitely unfiltered tap water. Tastes similar to lead filled, hot and old public water fountains. Service was trying to hard. Server spoke extremely unnaturally and was being excessively nice in a really obviously fake way. read more

Made a reservation online. Arrived and was seated within a few minutes. I order the bowl. Can't remember the exact name. But I've had it before and it still didn't disappoint.

It is always a treat to go to First Watch! The staff are friendly and welcoming. We were a group of exercise buddies celebrating a birthday. We kept "trickling" in and staff kept adding tables, always smiling! The food was delicious with a varied menu that met everyone's needs. A good time was had by all! read more

Normally good but daughter went to breakfast after graduation practice with friends. They forgot her order, everybody finished eating by the time she got it and then it was raw. They did not charge her for it but still very disappointed and have a lot of reluctance to go back. read more

The food was above average. I enjoy making breakfast at home and think it's rarely ever worth going out for breakfast but this spot did it great. Our sever was very kind and attentive. The environment is a cool vibe as well. read more

Bad day for First Watch. We usually frequent this restaurant but we stopped for a while due to our food looking like it was thrown on the plate,but today after a few months we went back in. To start our service was ridiculous, this woman Christan didn't show up to our table for the longest time and then when she got there seemed all over the place. And there was another server with their apron hanging all the way down to his knees almost .I think the manager actually brought us our food and he was calm and professional. I don't understand how other FirstWatch restaurants are knocking it out of the park with service and High standards, and carefree just seems like the High standard Not standard, and Today... They hit way below the bar. When I go out to eat I want put together friendly prompt professional service not to feel like I was forgotten in a empty restaurant and see unkept or frantic servers. I will continue to go to FirstWatch but not this one Not until they can Make Their standards like the other FirstWatch restaurants we attend. On a positive the hostess made us laugh and the Food was good read more

This is an amazing place!! It's so clean and pleasant. The food is so good, the server's are amazing! Everyone that works there is so caring, and helpful! Plus the manger Val, well she is the Best so knowledgeable, helpful kind, one could not ask for a better person!!! Thank you Val! See you Sunday!! Karen read more

In the past, the service has been excellent, however, recently it has dropped off. Servers and hosts ignore customer service and issues. Orders are delivered incorrectly or burned beyond being edible. Came here for my birthday breakfast and was disappointed beyond belief. Save your money and go somewhere else. read more

Great fresh breakfast served here. This was our second time. We came in craving hash browns, but they didn't have any on they menu. Their potatoes in the skillet were good. They were pretty busy for a Saturday morning in September. Service was great! Friendly staff, clean bathrooms and lots of parking outside. First Watch is convenient to our home, so we plan to return soon. read more

The food at First Watch is already amazing but our brunch experience at First Watch was made truly exceptional by Jenna, our waitress. Jenna's upbeat and cheerful personality brought joy to our meal.

This used to be a favorite brunch stop. Never again! Invited a friend and the experience was terrible. Her avocado and chicken salad had no avocado (they did bring out a small plate when we brought it to their attention) and only three small chunks of chicken. It was swimming in dressing...way too much! My potatoes were too salty to eat, which our server attributed to having just cleaned the grill??? No apologies or attempts to bring something else and we were to hungry to wait anyway at 2:00 pm. There are many good choices in the area so avoid this one. read more

This place is the slowest breakfast restaurant I've ever been to in my life. There was a line of people waiting to sit down and at least eight available tables. The hostess is very sweet but completely overwhelmed and getting no support from management. I do not believe there's even management on site. Food was very "OK" but don't ever do takeout you'll be waiting for at least one hour just for takeout. I don't understand the crowds or the appeal it must be the age old location location location. read more

I have been a fan of first watch for a few years now, and I've never been disappointed until I came to this location. My husband and I came on a Saturday for brunch, and there is a decent way. The lobby was full of people waiting to be seated, yet when you looked into the dining room, there were several open tables. Nonetheless, we waited to be seated. My husband ordered the farmhouse skillet and an orange juice. I had one of their seasonal dishes which was a green sauce smothered Carnitas burrito. Initially I was very excited for the burrito, as the description touted Carnitas filled with a number of ingredients. The green sauce left little to the imagination, as it was fairly bland and not a hint of spice was found. Furthermore, the bites that did have Carnitas were quite delicious, however that was maybe two or three. The burrito was full of black beans and potatoes, filler ingredients as I would like to call them. My husband's dish was just okay, in fact, it seemed like a fairly small portion for what you pay. His dish is supposed to come with bacon, and with what he got, it was a sad portion to say the least. We also opted for the million dollar bacon, which is delicious and I highly recommend it. However I don't think it's worth the five dollars. In the past it has seemed where is it as the pieces of bacon have been pretty substantial and reasonable. It was just this time that the pieces seem smaller, and just pathetic. The service was just OK, we had one waitress come to our table and take our drink order. Not two minutes later, another waitress came by and said she would be taking our order. It seems like this location would benefit from some more management and organization. All in all, first watch usually is a great spot for brunch. However I would think twice before coming to this particular location. read more
