First Watch

We tried Gingerbread spice donuts at First Watch. Oh my goodness. If I were rich I'd have a chef who would have a bowl of these waiting for me every morning when I woke up. The short rib poutine was super flavorful. Tender meat and potatoes. The million dollar sandwich is legit. So big and full of all the goodness of a great breakfast.

Market Skillet hash $13.49 - 2 eggs your way on top of potatoes with mushrooms, zucchini, shallots, red peppers, baby spinach, melted Mozzarella and herbed Goat cheese. Comes with toast and fruit. I got this bc i like the market veggie sandwich. Hash was pretty good. Lots of potatoes and veggies. Huge serving so I took half to go.Gingerbread spiced donut holes $5.99 - (holiday menu) comes with caramel toffee sauce & creme anglaise. These were good. Crispy on the outside, soft and cakey on the inside. Not too sweet. Came with about 12-13 donut holes so there were plenty. Took some to go.Sunny Seoul hash $13.99 - (holiday menu) shaved seared pork with kimchi, cheese, eggs, gochujang aioli. Bf enjoyed it,he struggled to finish it all. Regular coffee $3.69 - good typical house coffee.Kind of loud. Not sure if it's bc it's so open. Also I feel like the prices have increased. They used to be pretty reasonable, but now you're spending $14 for an entree (inflation everywhere though). Portions are generous at least.

First off Darron was amazing. Well attentive and very funny. I travel a lot, previously worked restaurant industry as well. If we had more people like Darron things could be much better in our restaurant industry. We need more servers that are approachable and personable like Darron. Darron understands that his job isn't just about people ordering and bringing food. Darron and his fellow restaurant peers take a-lot of crap from people who are always gonna find a way to be unsatisfied and miserable.But yet they continue to come to work everyday and please everyone as much as they can. People need to understand that the restaurant industry are humans and are need to be treated more like humans. We pay people to rap dumb, no meaning, downgrading/demoralizing lyrics. We pay actors to be on a screen and have no care in the world if you didn't like it, we pay athletes to play sports but could care less if we went to their game. but we won't tip the people that literally brought food to our table, filled out cups, clean up, and ensure you have the best experience so you can come back. Let's wake up and support the people that need it Have a great day and thank you Darron and the staff at First Watch in Suga

Slow is an under statement! Don't say you will have a to go order ready at a certain time and then have it ready 45+ minutes later. Even on a holiday. Then prepare better or give accurate times! You wasted a lot of my time and I lost money in the process... not cool First Watch!And side bar... you offer NOTHING for this excessive wait! Not even a simple glass of water!

I was staying in Sugarland and looking for a brunch spot in Houston last-minute on a Sunday afternoon. Spent about 30 minutes searching online and most places had no reservations available or charged to reserve so I decided to try First Watch in Sugarland 5-min from where I was staying. The website showed a 0-min wait time which was fantastic but some online reviews were not very convinced that First Watch was worth the visit. Upon further inspection, the bad reviews were for a Houston location and not about the Sugarland one so me and my friends took a chance on it. Walked-in at 12:45pm. I saw people eating outdoors and indoors with at least 80-90% of tables filled so it was very busy but my table of 3 was still sat immediately! The atmosphere was quiet but lively. The hostess was so sweet and the staff were friendly. Our waiter (Marquees?) was very helpful and accommodated my group with care. After taking our drinks and appetizer orders he had to leave in an emergency but our service was uninterrupted! Our new waiter (Maritza?) maintained the same level of communication and care for the rest of our stay. Our food was served literally within 10 minutes of ordering!!! For shareables we ordered the Gingerbread Spice Donuts and Million-Dollar bacon for the table and both were fantastic! The donuts came out fresh and warm and the flavors worked so well together I almost ordered some to go! TRY THESE WHILE THEY ARE IN SEASON!! The bacon was also well seasoned and well cooked!! The table was in agreement about the shareables being 10/10. Our entrees were also really good--I ordered the Elevated Egg Sandwich. My onlyyyy issue about this is my eggs came served over medium/hard instead of over easy so I got no runny yolk as advertised. But it still was a tasty sandwich with VERY fresh ingredients. I appreciated how fresh everything was. To sum it up: The Sugarland First Watch is definitely worth the visit! Try the Gingerbread Spiced Donuts before they're taken off the menu!! I WILL be back!!!

Great breakfast spot. Plentiful menu and large dining area. Prices are about what you'd expect for a large city breakfast spot.

Food was delicious and service was fast and prompt!Will definitely recommend this place for a nice quick breakfast!Coffee, water and all was on point! Will return again when in Texas!

We enjoyed our brunch here! Have been to the Sugar Land location and enjoyed their food as well. This was our first time at the Richmond location and overall felt the level of service and food to be comparable. We waited only a few minutes to be seated mid-morning on a Saturday. The waitress who seated us offered us coffee straight away which was much appreciated! Our orders were taken promptly. We tried their new menu items birria quesadillas, chorizo scramble, and a kids chocolate chip pancake and bacon strips. They have a really great variety on the menu savory and sweet alike so I think it's a good choice for w group brunch! Sure to find something for everyone here. Our food had over a 25 min wait and only 2 items were brought out at first. The waiter forgot the syrup for the pancakes and my birrria quesadilla w eggs took another 10 min to get to the table.The food was overall enjoyable however I felt the hollandaise sauce on my poached eggs over the birria did not complement the quesadillas well. There's almost a sweet taste to it which wasn't my favorite but wasn't bad. Would ask for it without sauce next time. I'd rate the meal a 6/10. The other 2 entrees especially the scramble were much better, bacon extremely salty tho.We paid at the counter and left satisfied. Would definitely return and recommend for a nice casual brunch!

5 star......, 5 stars!?!?!?!?!?!?! Yes, 5 stars people! Its hard for me to give a perfect score but on this day, at this location, every single thing that mattered when going out to a restaurant was met.Customer service: Cleanliness: Attentiveness: Turn around time: Presentation: Quality and taste:

When everyone has their coats on, you know what to expect. The place was freezing. The "heat" was set at 55 degrees. I had heard good things about this First Watch, but it's obviously not a place to go in the winter. The manager didn't show any interest in changing the temperature. So much for customer service or simple human decency. Heading to Kelly's.
