Looking for a a step above normal breakfast food? Give First Watch a try. They have a good selection of omelets (my fav is the Bacado is Bacon and Avocado) or pancakes (try banana nut crunch). They also have a selection of muffins, and you can get basic eggs any style if that's your preference.On weekends the wait can be over 30 minutes. It can be a little pricey, over $11 for omelets and most breakfast entrees, but its worth it.

Me and my friends were seated and then promptly forgotten about by staff, I had to go get the host(who was very kind) to even get drinks at the table. It then took another 30 minutes to have someone take our orders (he was one of the cooks I believe? Also very nice)Overall the time from seating to having our order taken was about 1 hourThen two completely different people brought us our food. Our waitress didn't show up until we had finished our food to serve us with the check. Honestly the worst service I've ever received.

Friendly staff very welcoming love their waffles

I have been to First watch for brunch almost 3-4 times. I would recommend this as a best breakfast place.

Love going to this location the food is always fresh and delicious! It’s right by my house so pickup option isn’t too difficult I love this place for breakfast!

Wife and I went there for breakfast had a great fresh cooked veggie filled breakfast. It was delicious food was spectacular, service very good, everything. Just good atmosphere everything about this place is nice. Waitress was very helpful and friendly and smiling.

Had ham and gruyere omlet with fried potatoes. Was pretty good. My daughter had oatmeal and a muffin which she shared a bit with me and it was honestly even better. The place was packed but they got us a table ready in no time. Good service, good food. What else can you ask for?

The food and service were both top notch.

We’ve always gone for breakfast so this was our first time for lunch. Haven’t been here since the pandemic started and still concerned enough to get take out. But our lunch delicious. We split a Cobb salad and beef and havarti sandwich Salad was fresh and the beef was so very tender and delicious. A new favorite.

I had the Italian omelet that was just not seasoned well. My main concern was that the restaurant had no covid 19 protocols in place. All the customers were eating and talking right next to each other. In this tight space, I think that management should have concern for its customers. All things considered, I would still give the restaurant another chance... just not soon.
