First Watch

Don’t know how they do it but yumm! First Watch never disappoints with their great service and delicious plates.
Not very busy for brunch on a Monday, overall everyone was moving quickly with orders and I’d say we waited 10 minutes tops before we saw our food. I absolutely loved the ‘morning market veg’ which had this fantastic toast and jam 😋.

First Watch Restaurant never disappoints, especially when it comes to their chocolate chip pancakes - they're simply divine. The staff consistently delivers exceptional service, always friendly and attentive. Whenever I have family and friends visiting from California, I make it a point to take them to First Watch as soon as they land, setting the tone for their visit on a delightful note. It's become a tradition because I know they'll love it just as much as I do.

This review only applies to the louderdale by the sea location of first watch. We have eaten breakfast there. Probably half a dozen times and had an awesome experience every time. The food is always done well. Special orators are handled with ease. Special requests Have never been a problem. Most of all, every staff member we have dealt with has always been extremely professional and it is obvious they are the kind of people who intend to give good service and they are well trained. I just have to repeat that the staff at this location are amazing. I have eaten at 3 other first watch locations. And one of them was an abject disaster and I will not return. This place gets busy. It's not far from the beach and is super popular. Probably because they are killing it. Super high marks to everyone at this restaurant. And thank you very much for always being the highlight of my trip to fort lauderdale.

1st time coming to this particular location. Got on the waitlist and received a text message when they were ready to seat us. It was pretty busy for a Saturday morning, but they were moving everyone right along. Atmosphere was very relaxed, laid back. We ordered our beverages 1st while still deciding what to eat. I chose the kale tonic, which was very good, hubby had water with lemon. Waitress was very patient and friendly. The food came out in a good decent time. Hot, fresh, and delicious. A pleasant experience.

I had a really good time at First Watch. Was greeted immediately by the beautiful Carla. She seated us and got us comfortable although she was about to go off shift. We were catered for by two other beautiful young ladies, sorry don't remember everyone's name but will return to learn them.
The food was awesome and I ate every bit. I had this sandwich with pastrami, egg, salad greens, cheese and sauce on a soft bun. We thank all who participated in our experience.

First Watch at Sea Ranch is my favorite guiltless brunch spot. The ladies who greet are always on point. We came in on a busy day and were still taken care of well.

I had coffee (which is delicious here) and my husband ordered a drink that had orange, coconut milk, and some other fruits I can’t remember but I do remember it being delicious!

For our entrees, he got the breakfast tacos that have avocado, black beans, chicken, etc. He says they were amazing. I ordered the Bacado omelette. It had bacon, Monterey Jack cheese and sour cream on top, with pico on the side.

The salad was a bit dry, but I think they forgot the dressing and the server was very quick in fixing that.

Overall, always a great experience here and the food quality is top tier! I highly recommend it. Especially after a hard morning workout 🏋‍♀

We absolutely love this place and go pretty often. The food is always great and the servers are always very nice. In the # of years we have been here in total we’ve had one bad experience but the manager took the opportunity to fix it and we still enjoyed our meal. Will always recommend this location.

The food was delicious I got the farmhouse stash, coffee and a lavender drink. I enjoyed eating outside and watching the birds stealing the cream to drink it, hilarious!

First Watch is our favourite brunch spot! The food is healthy and excellent with amazing choices - everything I have had is equally as good. Special thanks to Gita, Victoria and Meagan (GM) who work their tails off to ensure that you have a great experience under their care and regardless of how busy it is they are always smiling and exceeding customer service expectations. Thank you!

Fast and friendly breakfast served all day. Upbeat staff and bright decor wake you up even before the coffee. Options range from big breakfasts to light and quick. Lunch menu and cocktails also available.

Love this place.
We had breakfast twice here last weekend. My toddler has (read "samples") the chocolate chip pancakes and I get the Belgian waffle and a mimosa!
They also offer crayons for kids to color on their menu.

Had an amazing 🤩 experience, my server was great, food was delicious 🤤. But what has me living for this location is the lovely ☺ young lady running it, Yessenia has an extraordinary personality, a beautiful smile. She definitely knows how to make an amazing experience for guest and her employees! Thank you

Everyone enjoyed their breakfast. The garden veggie omelette is packed with onions and bursts with the flavor of sun dried tomatoes. They have free coffee refills.

Unbelievable!!! My first time and I was absolutely be back! Been to this area since I was a kid- can’t believe it took me so long to try! Service was outstanding, the staff are so sweet, friendly and accommodating
And the food was sooo delicious!

I'm celiac, this place was great! By scanning a QR code you can access an entire allergen list for every single menu item. Waiter was knowledgeable about preparation practices in the kitchen and informed me of the allergen procedures in the kitchen. Great for vegan and gluten free! Thanks so much!

I go to this joint when I’m very very hungry and it has never disappointed me yet. We ordered chimichanga & market bowl and it was on point👌

First timer here. I really liked dining at First Watch. The Morning Meditation juice made with beets, ginger, and turmeric (I think) was really refreshing. The waffle was crispy, yet soft. The warm jam, syrup, and chicken sausage patty were delicious.

This place was the starter to a 4 day trip. And boy did it set such a high bar. The service is probably the most down to earth and friendly one you will ever experience. They treat and talk to everyone like family here. We ordered multigrain pancakes, pumpkin bisque, omelette and coffee. The food was great but the cherry on top is Gita. She is amazing. She treated my friend and I like her own. Have never been to a place like that. We went back looking for her because hardly any of the next few restaurants on the trip kept up with the level of attention and care first watch showed us. However Gita was off, and Marie was there. And Marie is so sweet as well. Her personality glows, you enter into first watch and the mood just instantly changes and is uplifted. The food is great; fresh and tasty! Come here you won’t regret it!

I'm still surprised how many people have never heard of or been to a FIRST WATCH! It is hands down the most unique breakfast you'll have. Maybe the best way to say it... First Watch is the OAT MILK of breakfast joints. Also, a number of First Watch locations serve breakfast inspired cocktails!

Great, hipster staff too!

So many unique twist on your favorite go to breakfasts, you'll never run out of something NEW to try! Photos are the Pork Green Chili Hash and the Parma Skillet but it's all about THE ELEVATED EGG SANDWISH! OMG! Total cost for 2 with coffee and mimosas before tip $52 and worth it.

I'm a fan. Good options, healthy and otherwise. I had a morning meditation juice and avocado toast. Huge portion of avo. Good service and open atmosphere.
