“I have been in this restaurant for more than 4 times. I highly recommend it. There are a lot of parking. Once you come in; you are greeted with a warm greeting and and enthusiastic smule by the host or owner. The servers are very accommodating , friendly and helpful. They check on their customers for whatever they need until your meal is done. The busboys are hardworking and any requests will be granted right away. The food/dishes are cooked just the way you requests. Their steaks and eggs are up to par. The prices are decently priced. For what they serve you, good amounts of food. Well worth it. Freshness and presentations of foods are stupendous! Never did I have any complaints the way the place is ran. Very clean. Wide open. Eventhough i live far. I kept going back and i know when i leave, my tummy is full, content and some take home left overs. Check their menu. Check the big breakfast meal. You can't go wrong with their reasonable prices. Thank you so much, Elena and Miguel. Who still recognized me after all these months. Great customer service!! Clean kitchens and toilets too! That's how one can tell how the place is well taken cared-,of.“

“My favourite place ❤️ First Watch is my absolute favorite place for breakfast! The food is always fresh, perfectly balanced, and delicious. The atmosphere is cozy, and the staff is super friendly. Every visit feels special. I especially love their coffee and seasonal dishes — you can tell everything is made with care.“

“I was a steady customer but will not be returning to this establishment again. Today I asked to sit in a booth and James, the owner said "We're too busy to sit one person in a "big" booth. (I was the only one waiting for a table.) So the waitress wanted me to sit at a table. The "big" booth seats 4. The table they wanted me to sit at also seats 4. The only difference is the booth doesn't hurt my back like the hard chairs do. I'm dying of cancer, which James is aware of, I have enough pain I don't need any more by sitting on hard chairs. Well he won't have to worry about being so "busy" to let someone have some comfort he's got one less patron. I'm done with this place.“

The staff were friendly, helpful and on top of it. This is the type of restaurant I wish I had in my neighborhood. If you’re in the area it’s a must visit.“

“The potatoes were soooooo good. The best I’ve had in a very long time. The chicken sand which was very flavorful“

“This place is so cute! It is a diner's diner with all the nostalgia of Waffle House and NONE of the regrets! The fries were REALLY GOOD! Thin and firm with just the right amount of little crunchy ones. No stink eye at bringing in a kid (there are even high chairs and lollipops at the till). This is my new favorite“

“Stopped here for breakfast, 1st time and I would definitely recommend it. The service was excellent and the food was great (real, fresh, hot, cooked to order)! I had the sampler with oatmeal pancakes and they were delicious!!! My other options included the chicken avocado crepe and Mediterranean omelette. The coffee was good, it came to the table in its own thermal to stay hot. I highly recommend!!“

“My friends and I, had breakfast here today and the service was awesome. I was seated quickly, and had many items, to choose from on their menu.

Thank you Dem and staff for a GREAT service. Take care“

“I went here for the first time last weekend and it was great! It was busy, but we wanted a booth so we waited a couple minutes and one opened up. The interior is very cute and retro with lots of fun decor on the walls. I ordered the 2x2x2 and the pancakes were super thick and yummy, and the eggs were some of the best over medium I’ve ever had, no exaggeration. My brother got the patty melt with fries and the free cup of soup- what a steal! The server was friendly and prompt. My only slightly negative is that it was a little warm inside for my preference, but it was a super hot day when I visited. If I’m in the area, I will be back!“

This was hands down one of the greatest breakfast experiences I’ve ever had at any restaurants.
If you’re fortunate enough to have Linda as your server, be prepared to tip at least 40% because SHE. IS. AWESOME!!!

Not only was the food absolutely incredible, it came out within 5 minutes of ordering.

Do yourself a favor and please dine here. Support this wonderful local restaurant.“

“Food: I got a Gyro for the first time and it was good but was a lot of the same flavor, not much variance since the meat is all ground up. Probably just not for me personally. Pizza looked really good!
Service: the cashier we had was awesome and helped with recommendations for someone who has never been to Chicago or had Chicago food.
Atmosphere: loved the diner feel to the place!

Parking: Pretty small parking lot out front, fits maybe 10 cars.“

“Delicious breakfast food. I had a ham and cheese omelet, my husband had biscuits and gravy, and our friend had the scrambled eggs chorizo. We all enjoyed our food immensely. The hashbrowns are delicious and the eggs were soft and fluffy. Yum!“
