First Watch offers high-quality, delicious food with exceptional service. The menu features options like the Power Wrap, The Works Omelet, and Spiked Lavender Lemonade, all made from fresh ingredients. Prices are on the higher side, but the satisfying meals are worth it. The staff is attentive and strives to ensure a positive dining experience, although some guests have noted that tables can take a while to be cleared, which can slow down the overall service. The restaurant can sometimes be crowded, and seating arrangements may feel tight, with some guests noting that they prefer more space and privacy. Despite these minor issues, most visitors highly recommend the food and enjoy the welcoming atmosphere.
