This is a family favorite! We go here often on weekends, and suggest it to others when they are looking for a new breakfast restaurant in the area! The million dollar bacon and bacodo omelette are two of my favorite. The shrimp and grits was a seasonal dish that I tried recently, and it was really good!

Was there yesterday with my cousin, we witnessed a female cook licking her fingers and then immediately preparing food at the same time ! Barf ?!We told the manager who did nothing and then didn’t even comp our food ! He made us pay for that nastiness! He doesn’t need to be a manager and she doesn’t need to be serving food and licking her little piggies simultaneously!

The best place for breakfast/brunch/lunch.They have seasonal offerings and amazing drink options. It's our new favorite spot. Definitely a step up from the neighboring pancake houses.

Hands down. Freshest, cleanest, most delicious breakfast ever! We had the elevated egg sandwich, the lemon ricotta pancakes, the million dollar bacon, and the fresh hot coffee. Mouthwatering goodness every single bite!

We came in around noon and waited for a table which was no problem. We got seated and then waited 15-20 minutes before the waitress had came to great us, she grabbed us waters and then didn’t come back to the table for another 20 minutes or so. At this point tables that came in after us had received their food and we were still waiting to order. I got the works omelet no tomatoes no onion and it was covered in onions. Unfortunately our waitress never came to check on us until she dropped off the bill. We planned to get another round of cocktails but we ended up just paying the bill instead. I wasn’t going to leave a review but the service today was awful, we usually never have this problem but it sucked to be on the day we took people in to try our usual breakfast spot.

Ordered online for pick up. Got the “holey donuts” but they failed to give me the dipping sauce and the donuts were burnt. Would call to complain but won’t be returning and don’t want to drive back on my limited lunch hour so I just won’t order there again. First and last. CHECK your bags and food before leaving. Their initials don’t mean a thing. Looks like CS signed off on mine today and they may need a new line cook and expeditor.

It’s remarkable how I’ve visited First Watch several times and never grown tired of it. I first discovered First Watch in St. Louis, and since then, I’ve been absolutely hooked. It’s become my go-to spot for any occasion, and all of my friends know it. The food is not only delicious but also served with a warm welcome from the attentive staff in a cozy atmosphere. Don’t hesitate, head there now. My top recommendations include the traditional breakfast (don’t forget to upgrade to the million-dollar bacon), the morning meditation drink, and their mouthwatering biscuits and gravy.

My only complaint is the hostess. We walked in no greeting, took us to the table, and place the menu on the table and walked away. No smile, no friendly greeting, didn't say a word after she sat us down. I said thank you, and she really didn't want to respond. She do not need to be at the front of the restaurant. Not friendly at all.

My first time trying this place. Overpriced and below average service! 13.00 breakfast for 2 pieces of bacon and 2 eggs. No food substitutes . Won’t be going back

I ordered an omelette with fruit with the waiter. It was well prepared and looked tasty. However I noticed that the server, not the same waiter, that brought it had on a lot of cologne and it lingered on my food. I could taste it with my forkful. I would give them another try just to make sure.

Im mad I had to give one star. I’m an secret shopper & I thought I was going to enjoy some brunch after entering the restaurant it was impossible to understand what was going on. No signs stating wait to be seated it was just crowded. No one was at the entrance after asking the woman do we wait to be seated I was forced to get out of line after she came back she got to seating people who came in after us. I thought that was weird. How ever I’m going to assume my color played a part. However I don’t think I should have to wait to be seated after someone that’s not my color. We are all the same. Why not get treated that way. How ever the woman was rude & will not get any money about out of me. I don’t recommend going here. For anyone that’s hungry and wants to enjoy a setting where you can sit down. DONT GO HERE.
