Yesterday, 10-27-24 we had the pleasure of meeting Trevor. He's so nice & his light shines so bright. Yosi, the cashier is also very nice and has lots of patience. Can't wait to visit when we're in town again!“

“I know this isn't a local joint, but it was late and local options were slim at the time. I wanted to send a shout out to Waffle House on Baymeadows Road in Jacksonville for an excellent experience last night. We walked in for a late dinner at 10 minute to 9. They were packed and short staffed. We grabbed the only open table and the shift leader (manager?), who was also cooking, brought our drinks and took our order, advising that it may be a wait. While we were there, 4 staff members that had been called in to help showed up and went right to work. They were a well oiled machine, continually checking on all of the tables, apologizing for the wait, and thanking everyone for their patience. We got our food and left within an hour. If we had gone to the IHOP 2 doors down, we would have still been waiting for our food (even in the best of times.) I know times are tough for the service industry right now, but these ladies and gentlemen handled it with grace and efficiency. I tipped 50% of the bill, and would have done much more if I could have.“

“These people work HARD. It's not fancy but it's friendly and consistent. They greet us by name and remember what we order. We go about 2-3 times a week.“

“Me and my husband just found this place. We told Tika(manager) who was taking our order that we had never eaten there before and she went above and beyond expectations to make sure we were happy with our visit. She was so nice and really helped with us having a great experience. And the food was AMAZING! If you haven't tried this place, what are you waiting for? Go you won't regret it“

“Our experience was amazing! We went at about 9:45 in the morning on a Friday and got sat immediately. Our hostess, Maddie, was so kind sharing some common interest information with me! Our server, Rob, was super friendly, funny, knowledgeable, and recommended an amazing breakfast entree for me. I would definitely get it again! (The Farmhouse Skillet) The food for all four of us came out exactly as ordered and in a very time friendly fashion.
The restaurant is well maintained and one of the nicer locations we have visited! We will most definitely be back!“

“I went to First Watch for breakfast today. There was no wait which was great. The server we had was very pleasant and attentive. I ordered a Belgian waffle, orange juice and coffee. The sever does leave the pot of coffee on the table which is nice. The waffle was good but not quite done in the middle. A bottle of warm syrup is given to you also. The negative to First Watch is the chairs are horrible to sit in. They are straight back and hard. I have to assume they are this way so you do not stay long. Eat and leave! I would recommend because the food was good and the service was excellent.“

“I came in here at 6:30am on a thursday, so my party of 2 were the only customers in the restaurant. The service was fast and kind. Food was good. The music playing over the sound system was a little weird but I doubt the stores can control that. I'm not sure if my experience can represent what you could expect since I came in at a very peaceful time but I left happy.“
