“Fantastic food! Best bfast spot in the city 5 stars.“

“Always the best food and service!“

“I don't eat out very often, but have always enjoyed the service and quality food at First Watch. This morning I asked the hostess to check the balance on my gift card. Due to a systems problem, she couldn't do this, nor could they accept my gift card in payment for my meal. (Not a problem) When my friend and I paid and prepared to leave, the hostess gave me a First Watch gift card "to make up for the inconvenience". These folks know how to do Customer Service. Also - hope you are able to remove the nonsense posts that appear among your reviews.“

“Visited today and was unable to get in for a while because they’d lost power. Finally was able to go in, and they were very short staffed as they waited for more employees to arrive. That team ROCKED it! I was amazed at how quickly they had food cranking out of the kitchen. Within 20 minutes plates were coming out of that kitchen. The staff was amazing made the best of it, cheering as more employees arrived. Great atmosphere, great group of people.“

“There was no wait and food was amazing!“

“My friend and I always enjoy eating at Anderson First Watch but this morning it was especially nice because of our waiter Jordan. He was friendly and attentive. When he delivered my friend's food, he told me he sent mine back because it didn't look up to standards. He then brought me the potatoes so I'd have something to eat while they redid my omelet. I'm grateful for people like Jordan and his supervisor who came out to talk with us. They remind me like if good.“

“What a fantastic little breakfast spot! The pancakes were perfectly fluffy, the bacon crispy, and the coffee kept coming without us even asking. Our server Ashley was an absolute gem—super friendly, quick with refills, and made great recommendations on the steak and eggs . She made our morning feel special. We'll definitely be back! Highly recommend this cozy diner.“

“This was my first time at First Watch. I went there on a weekday at 10am. No wait. I really enjoyed the astomphere and the cleanest of the restaurant. I had the Farmhouse hash and I really enjoyed it. I was pleasantly surprised on the cost of the meal.“

“Best roast beef sandwich anywhere! Great friendly service“

“Just passing thru the area, saw their menu offered something all 5 of us would like. Biscuits and gravy, omelets , waffles , yogurt parfait and Carmel iced coffee. Everything was amazing and delicious. Amy, one of the owners stopped by the table and chatted with us. Our server Christiania was very prompt and friendly. Highly recommend! If I’m in the area again I will stop 100%“

“It was a great meal and the people was super nice. Totally recommend for a good breakfast!“

“so the waiter was really sweet & very attentive I believe his name was Malik!! my friend & I saw him tend to several tables with a smile on his face. the food was so good. I had the vegetarian omelette. the drinks are really good too! if you want to try something new, I would recommend!! 🫶“

“Tried a breakfast first time today. Very awesome!!! I can’t rate the atmosphere I had my food delivered. You have to try the potatoes, amazing!!!“

“The food, atmosphere, service, and ambience at Mt Lookout were top notch! The HOE‘s team members, Julie, Mitch, Bri, and Murph, were extremely hospitable and friendly. We were seated and served in less than 30 minutes. I recommend the Fried green tomato BELT sandwich with sweet tots (with the maple aoli), or the Chorizo Burger. The grill chefs cooked them to perfection. Then pair these tasty sandwiches with a Murphy special, a pomegranate - mango martini or a cold beer! It’s a match made in heaven. We‘re definitely going back soon.“

“Eggcellent food and fast service! Highly recommended! 5 out of 5 !“

“Emily was amazing and excellent service!! 😊“

“Try the new PB&J waffle sandwich! It is to die for!!!“

“Today, 11.02.2021, a friend and l were in search of good breakfast food. Before dropping her off, we stopped at the Waffle House on Delhi Pike. The employees at this establishment were some of the warmest and friendliest group of people l have met since COVID. Fast service, our waiter Dante explained how we were able to mix and match the breakfast we had chosen. With the turn of our head, our meals were before us. The grits were freshly made, the toast was to a perfection with butter melted, everything about the meals were on point. The staff keep the restaurant clean. On their idle time they were cleaning the grill and washing down the floor, no one was standing around on their phones. I give the Waffle House ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️“

“Great food!! Come early to miss the lines. Yes, the food is that good.“

“Best pancakes you will find! Very nice staff and management“

“Great restaurant, very friendly atmosphere. Our waitress was very attentive. Hostess was also pleasant. Food was alright, unique and probably great to bring people to try but not something I would want to return to. Espresso was sour, a shame really. I expect those beans weren’t fresh“

“03/10/2026- Ordered a late night/early morning meal online to enjoy at home with my (teen) son. It appeared there were only two people working. Both worked together as a team to crank out orders. My son & I enjoyed our meals & look forward to our next late night/early morning meal together. 🧇🥓🥤“

“Enjoyed the service food was good nice atmosphere“

“My sons and I just came here for a very early morning breakfast and it was delicious. The restaurant was sparkling clean, modern and the waitress was attentive and prompt. We all had early morning obligations and so wanted to meet at 5:30 a.m. Other restaurants (such as the Waffle House down the street) advertise that they're open 24 hours a day but in reality that means that only their drive-thru is open at night. When IHOP says 24 hours they mean you can come in sit down and have a good meal at any time of the night or day. That's a big difference!“

“Great, Friendly Service!!!“
