I haven't been to a location in almost 10 years so suffice to say I was very excited to come back! I got my usual signature berry bliss waffle and it was delightful. However it was outshined by the strawberry colada smoothie that was DEMOLISHED. My husband killed the cookie dough waffle, he got an espresso, and I ordered a side of bacon and another smoothie to go it was THAT GOOD!! I'm pretty sure we were greeted by the manager and assistant manager. Great service, great and BUSY location (I suspect they all are like this. They're just wonderful!) My husband said I didn't overhype it (even though I was drooling while I was describing this place to him lol) that it was a good call and he would go again. :) We'll see you next time! Thank you for the best trip down memory lane.

It was a Sunday so we anticipated a bit of a wait and fortunately put our name on the waitlist…read moreprior to heading that way. Upon arriving we were told what our additional wait would be and it was within the parameters of what was communicated when we initially joined the waitlist. We were waited on promptly and put in our orders. I am a country fried steak fan and ordered that with hash browns and eggs over easy. There were ample hash browns cooked very nicely and the country fried steak was tender and well seasoned. It had a bit of a black pepper flavor. I also paid a bit extra for specialty pancakes because I am a huge fan of the red velvet pancakes. They are sweet and decadent but I can never pass up the opportunity. My daughter ordered the Açaí bowl which was a large portion and had ample ingredients with fruit and granola. It was nicely frozen and fresh. It was more than enough to fill her. They offer a nice selection of beverages and I took advantage of the Bloody Mary that was flavorful and tasty. The ambience is welcoming and vibrant and the staff collaborates nicely to make sure your needs are met. Solid and attentive service but no intrusive. A very solid choice for breakfast with plenty of choices to select from.

The great waitress told us they sell out even though they're making triple batches so if you're in the cornbread mood, go early! My wife got the Athlete and we were way too full when we half-finished what we ordered. So, we left with our doggy bags and smiles on our Sunday faces! This restaurant could accurately be considered a small investment in a happy life! So we made our deposit today!

However, we came back because we've been the other first watch locations and truly enjoyed the food. Our waiter this day was super nice and friendly, so no complaints whatsoever and the food came out very quickly. My only complaints here have been perhaps I've only realized it now is that they give you the coffee carafe they give you the water Kara and then you have to further serve yourself for the rest of the meal. Then, if you have leftovers, they give you the box and you have to go pack it yourself. If I have to do this amount of work myself, then why am I tipping a server who only came to actually take my order because I completely different group of people actually brought my plates and a completely different group of people cleaned off the table and the plates. Wow, this is not necessarily a crime or unique to first watch. I will say that delicious food is only enhanced by incredible service and experience. So they really need to up their game.

Enter Tara, who said she'd try her best to make something special. She delivered an adorable bear on my drink! She said she might be able to do better, but I loved her effort and enthusiasm. My friend and I headed outside to enjoy our drinks on the patio. Several minutes later, Tara came outside carrying another latte. She had PERFECTED the latte bear and gave it to us for free! She made my entire day. Thank you to Tara for the amazing art and for going above and beyond in your customer service!! I can't wait to go back for my next coffee and hope she's working when I do.

Expect a line as there was a long line when we arrive. Unfortunately there's only one person at the cashier register and I think there's only one register and there's only that one person who's taking the orders. While I understand that this is a small run shop I will say that standing in line and waiting on a Saturday morning really is discouraging. The food however, a super delicious and came out very timely. So absolutely no complaints for me and they also have a water station set up so you can help yourself to water which is fantastic. After sitting around for about an hour to an hour and a half this place got super packed with families's children and strollers which made it even harder to move around. The ambience is fantastic so definitely worth it for your social media. I would come back here again, however I'm not really someone to order alcohol here at this time but for breakfast I think it's great.

This is one of those places that quietly becomes your go-to without you even realizing it…read more What stands out immediately is how consistently good everything is. The portions are generous to the point where your plate feels like it's making a promise it fully intends to keep. Whether it's pancakes, omelets, or something a little more creative, the food comes out hot, fresh, and exactly what you hoped to enjoy. The menu walks that perfect line between classic and creative. Things like loaded skillets, sweet crepes, and standout omelets get a lot of love, and for good reason. And then there's the service, which honestly might be the secret ingredient. Even when it's busy, and it does get busy, the staff keeps things moving while still making you feel like you're taken care of. Friendly, attentive, and quick without being rushed, it's the kind of service that makes a place feel personal. At the end of the day, this is what a great breakfast spot is supposed to be: reliable, welcoming, and genuinely.

We ordered the Bavarian French toast and the sausage links and eggs for breakfast. The French toast was made with very standard ingrediants.

Unfortunately what was memorable was the high prices we paid.

When we checked in, they told us the wait was 40 minutes. I have no idea what happened but they actually seated us in 14 minutes. The place was totally packed. It's very cute and it's decor and ambience. However, something really weird is happening with the ceiling tiles so not sure if that needs any type of attention or repair. The place is pretty expensive as well. The menu is decent for choices with lots of different choices frankly. What I don't like about the menu is that with some of the orders it literally only comes with one sausage link, which I thought was weird and it doesn't even give you the option for Patty or an option for more sausage links in the order you have to order it on the side. When the dishes came, it was also weird was that the bacon was as thin as paper so that was really a letdown hence part of the four stars. Our waitress though was absolutely fantastic very attentive. She did forget a couple things but that's OK. It was a hectic morning. I don't mind that and it doesn't bother me. The pancakes are delicious. Definitely do not taste like overly floured, which is great. I would come back, however I will also say that the Arlington Heights area has a lot of brunch breakfast places, and in order to stay relevant you have to be competitive and really up your game whether it's on the food quality the location the service something that really makes you stand out ahead above the rest.

I won't get into the details but this staff kind of gives us attitude and questions our choices and also gets our orders wrong even tho we always order the same things. They just don't seem like they want to be there, and it is just a bit off putting. Having said that, we do occasionally still stop by. We have ventured out to try stuff that's NOT waffles. The kids liked the small quesadillas i think-- not greasy and nice plain flavors, easy to please the kids. My oldest really liked the tuna melt and it was good, and generous portions. Easy to split with the other kids. The ironman in comparison is so tiny and not worth the price-- which is really just paying for the "health" aspect of it. I get it. Overall, the foods are still really good, we just don't really like having to gamble with who our server is that day!
