First Watch

Great service and food, as always.

My hubby and I ate here for the first time, recommended by our son. We ordered: biscuits & gravy, Belgian waffle, farmhouse skillet and lemon Ricotta pancakes along with the kale tonic. Everything was delicious! Very fresh ingredients and full of flavor. The pancakes were so most you don't even need syrup. Our server, Amy, was very personable and friendly and gave some good menu suggestions. Highly recommend and we will be back to try other menu items!

First Watch is a great breakfast spot! Atmosphere is nice and cozy. Service was fast. Kudos to Amy. The food was also great. Probably the best eggs I had in a long time despite the broken yolk. Fantastic overall!

Buena comida

Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly

First Watch filled the void of many of my cravings on a weekly basis before this incident. Today was just like any other, but this time I ordered million dollar bacon. I was exhilarated to try such a bacon. I’ve heard such amazing things about this life changing bacon. I ripped open the box, ready to fill the void once again with this spectacular bacon. Unfortunately to my disappointment, I was given standard poor boy bacon. My heart dropped. Then my phone dinged with an email from the very people that ruined my day. I read the email, “Order received, contact Arvada marketplace with questions and concerns.” Then a small glimmer of hope wipes my tears away. Upon further dissatisfaction, the woman that answered the phone claimed that I never ordered million dollar bacon, I had the average bacon to my name. She made me feel dehumanized. Why does my emailed receipt show that I settled my $1.59 cent debts to get my million dollar bacon when she claims I didn’t? I don’t think this customership can be mended. Sincerely, your broken hearted customer.

My server Erica was absolutely fantastic, getting me a new fork when my tine was bent, bringing me a whole bottle of water, and assuring my meal came as I requested. The food could have used a little more help. I ordered the Chilaquiles bowl which touted barbacoa, black beans with pico de Gallo, and corn chips in a red sauce. The two bites of barbacoa were delicious, but I thought the dish was deserving of at least 4 bites of meat. The red sauce on the chips was over powering of the rest of the dish and the Pico de Gallo was very skimpy as well. I would be willing to try this place again as many other dishes that came out of the kitchen looked fabulous. One small staff comment is that if you have elderly in your restaurant with hearing aids, it is considerate to pick up chairs to move them, rather than drag them across the floor, leaving your other customers covering their ears. Details matter.
