First Watch — Restaurant in Fort Worth

Absolutely love this place, been in town for only a week and managed to come 3 mornings , I personally love the Belgian waffle however there hasn’t been anything I completely disliked. Belgian waffle with cinnamon powdered sugar: 9.7/10 it’s the right amount of airiness , warmth and sweet, I personally prefer waffles over pancakes thus have tried a ton of places recipes and this is the best by far in my opinion

Coffee: hate to say I wasn’t a huge fan of this one, it wasn’t necessarily bad just had a particular taste that isn’t my cup of tea, though I can’t quite put my finger on what it is

Kale tonic: 8/10 okay this is NOT for people who don’t like sour things, lemme just say I’m someone who hates sour however I didn’t return this to the kitchen I drunk it all, it resemble a green jolly rancher or a sour green apple! I will say it made me feel refreshed, awake and focus after drinking! Definitely great for health nuts or sour lovers.

Sunrise (?): 10/10 This new spring drink wasn’t on the menu the other day so I tried it today and let me just say it’s lovely , it manages to taste thick as if it’s a mango smoothie! You can taste all the fruits (except the lime) perfectly together as if you’re eating a fruit skewer! It is very strongly tropical I definitely recommend to fruit lovers! Didn’t make me energized like the kale tonic but it made me and my tummy happy

Purple Haze: 9.5/10 Got the non alcoholic version of this and all that’s to be said is This is what a lavender lemonade should taste like.

Hawaiian French toast: 9/10 Got without the coconut whipped cream and it was delicious as you can tell by the rating, would get again much prefer over the (usual??) French toast

Holey donuts: 6/10 Don’t take this review and run with it I’m Very picky with donuts however they were good but not great in my opinion, what helped contribute to the lower than the rest rating was the chocolate sauce that’s meant to dip them in, it was :( not great

Side of potatoes: 8/10 Okay you can either f up breakfast potatoes or make them right, these in my opinion were made how most would want, I’m not huge on butter so I sent them back BUT they were tenderly soft, very well seasoned, warm and very buttery.

Blueberry pancakes: 9.5/10 Bigger than expected, warm and filling ! Perfectly cooked and good in our...

My wife was very happy. I was not. We went on a non-busy day (seven open tables) and were seated immediately - after waiting several minutes for it to be somebody's job to actually interface with people coming in the door, instead of just busily walking past. The table at which we were seated had very, very obviously (water rings, coffee rings, sugar, ketchup, a brown lump of something) not been wiped down since the last customers' departure. After several minutes our very nice waiter arrived. He was apparently befuddled that the pot of coffee he was holding lacked coffee cups on the table so that pouring could commence. He went off to find cups, which took several more minutes to accomplish. By the time cups and a rag were achieved, we were not letting him go without our order. My wife loves both mushrooms and avocado, so this place is perfect for her. 90% of the menu seems to feature mushrooms and avocado in some arrangement. I generally start with the basics at a new restaurant, so I went with 2 eggs over medium, bacon, potatoes, multi-grain toast, and added a plain pancake. Once we had actually gotten our order in, the food arrived in a reasonable amount of time. My wife loved her breakfast. My breakfast was a train wreck. Two pieces of the bacon were far too underdone to eat. "Over Medium" eggs are not cooked hard, nor brown on one side. The potatoes were fine and the onions and seasonings were not overpowering. My pancake looked good, but the bottom side was dark brown, un-cuttable with just the edge of a fork, and needed to be left behind on the plate. The toast was good, except that it had completely cooled before they spread the butter on it, which is not tough to get right. The coffee was superior. The check was certainly..... enthusiastic. My wife will probably go again. I won't. There are seven places within a ten-minute drive at which you can get much better food and MUCH better service for - literally - two-thirds the price. Shut down for a week. Train the cooks how to cook. Train the front staff in basic customer service. Hire a manager and an assistant who know how to keep an eye on both. ...

I won't be visiting this first watch ever again!!! I have to say I had high hopes for this place when I went but unfortunately I was very disappointed. I ordered two meals togo, was told there would be a 30 minute wait for my food; this wasn't that big a deal because I could see they were very busy so I didn't mind waiting. I asked the lady who took my order if they could just call me when it was done, she said this wouldn't be possible then preceded to ask for my phone number to put on the order ticket. ??? Then came the issue of my food, I specifically asked for an egg and cheese omelet. Upon reviewing my ticket after paying I noticed she'd charged me for a ham and gruyere omelet. I was worried she'd misunderstood so just to make sure it was clear I asked her if there would only be egg and cheese as we're Jewish and don't eat pork. She assured me it would only be egg and cheese. Fast forward 30 minutes, I go to pick up my food and upon walking in I'm told by the same woman who took my order that it's currently being boxed up. Imagine my surprise when I sit down to wait and realize that my order was already boxed up and she apparently had no idea that it wasn't still being bagged. Huh, funny. I was a little miffed but again I tried not to make a big deal out of it. Went home and as soon as my son started eating his food, I realized they'd put ham in the omelet!!!! At this point I was pissed because I'd specifically asked her not to put ham in the omelet, when I came back she said she misunderstood and didn't realize I didn't want ham in the omelet! How many times does a person have to say no ham for you to get it?! They gave me a coupon to use for 2 free meals but my next day experience wasn't that much better. I'll spare you all the details but in short when they handed us the food they didn't even bother to check and make sure it was all there, good thing I did because I was missing my salad. Will never go to this...
