If I could give more than 5 stars, I absolutely would.

Today may be my last visit to First Watch in Wilmington, NC (1035 International Drive) before I relocate to Florida, and I wanted to make sure I leave a review that truly matters — a review that highlights someone who deserves real recognition.

My server, Anjalina, delivered the best service I’ve ever experienced — not just at First Watch, but anywhere. From the moment she approached...

Love this place. Had a late breakfast this morning. The biscuits and gravy were outstanding. And the eggs were cooked to perfection. Great staff. Always feels clean. Thanks so very much

January 2026

Updated from 1 y ago. Changed from 4 to 5.
Super quinoa bowl absolutely perfect to satisfy my hunger and be somewhat healthy, except for the curly green stuff which is clearly not on my diet
Trifecta for companion was raved about. Waffle was delicious. Eggs cooked to perfection
Server Nick appropriately attentive and courteous.
Prices not outrageously high. Good thing the coffee was nice and strong like I like for $4
