First Watch

Great restaurant, fresh and organic items. Great for breakfast !!! DINA our hostess was ESPECIALLY gracious, energetic and ACCOMMODATING !!! I have many friends that own restaurants and are in the hospitality buisness and she would definitely be an ASSET to any of their establishments !!!

Place is nice, Food very good, and prices ok! My only concert is the services (was so rush) and the waiting time (regularly is 45 –60 min wait) I recommend you to download an app (not wait) to avoid long waiting time… Believe me this is gonna change your life.

I had never heard about First Watch until this location opened. The restaurant is clean, the food is great, the service is friendly and I have enjoyed my dining experiences here. It is a little pricey but I get that you have to pay for better quality ingredients. Definitely try the Floridian French Toast. You will not be disappointed. This place is always busy and the parking lot is small and gets full quickly. I also wished it was open a little longer but overall, it is great.

Love First Watch. My first experience was the Orlando resturaunt and when i saw them building the pines location, i was so excited. The servers are great but it can get really busy so waiting for a table and to pay for the check might be a little long, but nothing to complain about.
The food is great, avocado toast is always felicious but the banana granola pancake is also really good for that sweet tooth (the pancakes are also HUGE)
Also try the fresh juices, they are so delicious and refreshing!

This is one of the best breakfast places I’ve been. There’s traditional breakfast food like pancakes, omelets and egg benedicts, but there are also more unique and healthy options like quinoa kale bowls and avocado toasts. The place has a friendly community vibe with organic décor. The servers were very approachable and funny.
We sat at the community table and everyone chatted with each other. Love the people who go here too!
I had the power breakfast bowl with quinoa, kale, tomatoes, mushrooms and sunny side up eggs. It was amazing, even better than I expected. I really want to try the lemon curd pancakes too. The description on the menu sound totally delicious!
I will definitely be coming back again! If you are coming here on a Sunday, come before 930am to avoid a long line.

Monday morning & we didn’t wait to be seated.
As soon we were seated Waiter approach us with pitcher and ask if we wanted coffee; that was a welcome surprise.
We accept and start with 2 Coffees & let her know I need it some time to decide because the Menu is awesome.
Wife order Healthy Turkey (Omelet Turkey for $ 8.49) & I had Salmon & Veg Frittata ($ 12.98 watch the picture) I know the plate is little expensive but remember this is wild caught Salmon & it tasted Deliciuos
Like all the reviews I had read place is clean, the service is Great & Attentive. Our server Jacqueline was step above & Glad we were the lucky ones to be served by her :-))

Third or fourth time I have been here. The idea was great but the execution is not. Service is slacking in this place big time.
I ordered their Italian eggs Benedict and it came out cold. In addition the eggs are scrambled «on an eggs Benedict?» and the bacon was so over cooked that picking it up just made them break into pieces. Like eating the burn scraps off of a BBQ grill.
Last time I eat here!

Nice clean location. Better option than IHOP. Very cool rustic scenery. They offer coffee while you wait. Server opens the door for you as you enter.
A lot of options on the menu. The staff is very friendly. Parking is available but it is shared but 3 other businesses. This business was voted BEST Breakfast Option!

Wow! Not only is the food in this Pembroke Pines location on point, but the customer service, the personal connection that DINA gave me on my 1^st time here was above and beyond. Because of Dina I’m here again today with my family, the place is packed from when you sit till when you leave and she maintains the same smile and charisma as if you were her customer being seated. I highly recommend this place for the great food, excellent atmosphere and how can I again not boast about the excellent service you receive from Dina! You go girl you and your bright green eyes, first watch has made the best decision by taking on Dina to run this place. For all I know you could be the owner, keep up the awesome work you do. Thank you Dina.

How have I not heard about this place before?!? Oh wow! Seems like a decent place for those who are fitness and organic minded. But anyway, has a bit of a industrial and modern theme to it, which I find a little confusing. But it’s clean, nice, friendly staff, AWESOME COFFEE, and great food. I just had breakfast here, so I guess lunch and dinner is in order sometime in the future.

Upon arrival, we were greeted by a red headed lady. I did not catch her name. However, she had a very poor attitude. We were a party of 6, but 2 of them had not arrived yet. The greeter did not want to seat us unless all 6 were present. According to her, she did not want to sit an incomplete party. She continued to ask us, «do you know where they are?» «Are you going to order without them ?.» She then asked us to move out of the way because we were holding up the line. This is not what customer service should be about.
The experience did change however with our waitress Cassandra. She was very attentive and friendly.
I had the strawberry cheesecake french toast. It is to die for. Delicious! You need to go and try it. Just hope you are not greeted by the red headed lady.
I would of given it 5 stars but it’s just not warranted.

Enjoyed this place thoroughly, the food was exceptional, had the eggs benedict with smoked salmon! Our server’s name is Jenny and she did an excellent job taking care of all our needs! I recommend highly to ask for her as your server, extremely friendly! Also a shout out to Dina and Kesha!

I really enjoyed this restaurant. It’s only open for breakfast and lunch which are served anytime during work hours. The fritata was just the right size and the ingredients tasted fresh and just the right amount not to overwhelm anything else. My friend who had the hash actually came up with that evaluation. We loved the bread in this place and the ice tea. Service here is friendly, relatively quick but expect to wait around for a table on high traffic days. It’s almost like a Whole Foods of breakfast places with a good selection of healthy, not so healthy and comfort food. You will probably not have any complaints. It’s a chain so there are a few scattered around South Florida.

Delicious brunch/​breakfast spot in Pembroke Pines! They don’t have many places like this in town so it’s awesome that it was actually good.
I went for breakfast and ordered the traditional eggs Benny (it’s pretty much what I always order for brunch), I would have liked it a little warmer but the hollandaise was still delicious, only thing was that the egg was cooked completely through unlike how the poached egg is supposed to be (runny). I also ordered an iced coffee that was never brought to me, but I did not mention it since I did not really care for it after I was done with my food, but I was not charged. Potatoes were delicious! And the Benedict had so much ham on it which I loved !
They have tons of healthy options and don’t even have a deep fryer in the restaurant which is awesome. Costumer service was also great. Besides the minor things mentioned I would definitely come back!

After having heard so many good things about the first watch in sunrise I decided to give this one a try.
I met up with a friend here for brunch.
The interior is very cute and has kind of a southern rustic vibe to it.
We were greeted immediately upon walking in and it wasn’t very busy. It was also a Monday so just keep that in mind.
We were taken to our table and the menu was explained to us by our lovely waitress. I really wanted the kale juice but they were out so I asked for orange. About 5 minutes after our order went in she came back out to inform me that they were making some more juice and if I would still like my kale juice instead. I really appreciated that because she could’ve easily not bothered.
The meals are very decently priced. The potatoes could do with a little more seasoning but that’s probably just my own preference. I doused it in hot sauce.
My French toast was delicious!
I’ll be coming back again.

DUDE.
SERIOUSLY.
Ya’ll in Broward are totally SLACKING if you have no stepped into First Watch yet.
This is my go-​to Brunch place with friends, families, I take clients here, I come here with coworkers, my boyfriend have eaten here back to back weekends. you get the point I’m trying to make here yet?
Food here is SO fresh. I believe they are grabbed from local farms, so the everything taste amazing fresh and wonderful. They often an assortment of juices here (depending on what type of health kick you are currently on) and my favorite Iced Green Tea (It isn’t too sweet like some places!)
My boyfriend ALWAYS gets the Trifecta. I don’t even know why they even bother giving him the menu anymore. It’s the perfect combo if you’re unsure which breakfast to plate up.
Myself? I am almost always indecisive because everything taste like fireworks to my tastebuds.
I’ve had the trifecta, breakfast skillets, the eggs benedict, the half and half soup and salad combo, almost a little bit of everything seriously.
Nothing. Fails.
The ONLY downside to coming here is the weekend rush. I’m not exactly sure if they’ve gotten that rollercoaster down yet and I’m not holding my breath for it either. It’s a bit of a mess and disorganized to be honest. I have found a way to beat the system though. (It’s totally legit, I swear. see below).
PRO TIP:
Download the app: «No Wait», search for First Watch, create a profile if its your first time, Check in line if you’re close enough (You have to be within 12 miles of the restaurant), and start heading out of your house! I literally will check in while I’m on my sofa, head out and by the time I get there will be waiting for 1 or 2 people ahead of me instead of waiting there impatiently for an hour.
Lastly, this is a breakfast-​brunch place, so the shop starts closing around 2:30−3pm. Get there on or before 2PM if you’re a late sleeper like me ;)

Every meal is a special meal when dining for a special occasion. I think so!
Today is my 17^th wedding anniversary and my husband decided to begin our day here. Great choice hubs.
This location is new to the area and so far (according to our helpful waiter) they’ve been doing really well.
I remember visiting First Watch in Orlando a few times and my experience there had been mixed. Some times the food was hit or miss. And some times the service was the same. The first time I visited this location, unfortunately, service was slow. I took my daughter here for her 14^th birthday a couple of weeks ago and we had to wait noticeably too long for our meal. Our waitress was new, inexperinced, and didn’t handle how long we were waiting to be served well. I noticed her standing by the counter in the kitchen just waiting and waiting, while other servers were picking up their table orders pretty readily. Slow is the best way I can describe how long we had to wait, and then when my food arrived my bowl was dirty with food spilling over the sides. Not acceptable. She quickly apologized when I brought it to her attention and replaced it. I ordered the Avocado spread on whole wheat. This is one of my regular dishes and because I love avocado I enjoy the dish.
Today, much better! Our server was very good in the way he handled our table. Today’s dish, Salmon Frittata. It was delish. I couldn’t finish the whole plate but I wanted to. My Husband ordered us some French toast which wasn’t the best I’ve had but it was good.
We sat in a little table next to the window. Today is beautiful and so was the Sun shining through the glass, showing us some love. It was a perfect start.
First Watch reminds me of an upscale diner. The décor is warm and inviting. Perfect for meetings, small celebrations, or dining for two.

Gave first watch a second try and this experience was better. Got seated right away, food came out in a timely manner, and Brandon our server did a great job. Brandon was friendly informative and often checked in on the table.
My suggestion to anyone who wants to try this place out is to come during the week (not on a holiday). Come when it’s slow and you’ll get a decent experience.

Love having this new restaurant in my neighborhood. When it first opened we went on a weekend and ended up leaving because the wait was ridiculous. We decided to give it another try during the middle of the week. We sure were glad we did! I never give a bad review on a new restaurant because let’s be honest there is a lot of kinks at first and most places don’t get their groove til a few weeks. That just me, so giving them another chance was the right thing to do.
I like that everything is fresh with most of their ingredients being health friendly. They also have some really delicious drinks like the one I had which was a Kale Tonic. This morning I had The Elevated Egg Sandwich and it was very good. Our server was very, very friendly and was always making sure we were not in need of anything. I will most definitely be coming back to try the other selections for breakfast. Also the lunch menu looked very tempting. I love that they have power bowls with Quinoa, this will be my next try.
Just remember they close at 2:30 so make it there early. My suggestion is if you don’t like waiting, hit this place up during the week day.

Wow! I am so happy an organic breakfast/​brunch restaurant opened in my hometown. This is exactly what this neighborhood needed. This place is perfect. It’s organic and super healthy. They have tons of whole wheat options and unique entrees to choose from. I started with the avocado toast for an appetizer. THIS IS A MUST. I never thought of putting lemon on my avocado toast w/​sunny side up egg. Really really good.
My friend and I went in for brunch and didn’t want to leave! The whole vibe is open and clean. We were seated right away and in seconds we were poured a delicious cup of coffee and cold glass of water. The waitress was super attentive and helpful. Typically at organic spots the food is so expensive. The prices here were so affordable. We got an appetizer, two entrees, and 2 cups of coffee for a total of $ 30.00. Without including tip. That’s so good for high quality organic food.
For my entrée I got the granola bowl. It wasn’t a huge portion but it filled me up. All the fruit was fresh and the yogurt was super tasty. My friend got the Monterey sandwich. She said it was good but not out of this world. I wouldn’t deduct from the experience because of that though. There could definitely be some better options with a second chance.
Overall, this place is bound to be a gem because the area really needed a serious bfast place. Word of mouth is going to make this place busy!!!
