First Watch, Estero FL

Recently opened, the service was top notch and the food was up to First Watch excellent standards.

I have been wanting to try this place for a while. The extensive breakfast & lunch menu did not disappoint and it was hard to decide between breakfast and lunch. They have fresh juices and power bowls for the healthy eaters and craft cocktails and homemade donuts for those looking to indulge. Our server was very attentive and other servers stopped by to check on us which was nice. They left pots of coffee on the table so we had a hot cup at all times. I ended up having the half soup and salad. The White Bean Chili and the Chopped Chicken Avocado Salad were delicious. We also had an order of donuts for the table which were amazing. They came with salted caramel and creme fresh dipping sauces.yummy! I ate most of the buttery skillet breakfast potatoes off my friends plate and had a hard time stopping since they were perfectly tasty and crispy at the same time. Overall, a great place. I look forward to coming here often.

First Watch is our all-time favorite breakfast/lunch restaurant! We visited this restaurant 3 times when we were recently on vacation in SW Florida. Always a fabulous experience!

To start, this First Watch location is reliable, consistent, and dependable. We order often and they are wonderful at taking more detailed orders. Specific shout out to Sophia (or Sofia). I recently called in with specific instructions for a takeout order that may have frustrated other staff at a different restaurant, yet she was so kind and understanding. It really set the tone for our meal. The staff is kind and gracious as a whole and the food is wonderful. So thankful to have this restaurant so near.

Very fresh flavorful food with good presentation. Nice upscale restaurant with extremely good customer service. Food came out fast! A modern spin on classic American dishes!

No one else I know of balances traditional breakfast options with healthier alternatives quite like this place. They have totally healthy options like a chia seed pudding bowl, but you can also get traditional, less healthy options like biscuits and gravy that they don't butcher by trying to make the biscuits gluten free or some low fat gravy travesty. (It is turkey not sausage gravy but I could scarcely tell the difference). Great skillets as well and reasonable prices.

We have not been to a First Watch in awhile. The place was nice and clean and the service was great. The food was good the coffee was a bit bitter. The coffee was a bit expensive. Most places are charging 1.99 to 2.99 per cup. The choices on the menu to me are limited. The restaurant changed their menu about 6 years ago…options were better. It was more comfort food oriented.

Anytime I visit a First Watch, I am always satisfied. I don't remember her name now, but the waitress we had was exceptional despite how busy she was. I guess I don't need to mention the food, as it's always excellent, but for this restaurant our Waitress was topnotch!

Food is always fresh and unique to any other restaurants. Service excellent even though it was a holiday. Clean and relaxing atmosphere.

Food was good. Only reason im giving two stars. At the end of my meal I witnessed an older gentleman ask to speak to a manager about something regarding his experience. I overheard the gentleman say that his meal tastes like chemicals and his mouth was tingling. Not once did anyone ask if he was alright or if there was anything they could do for him. Instead the manager said im sorry you had a bad experience have a good day. After the customers left the restaurant the manager proceeded to tell the employees and they all laughed hysterically over the poor man who thought he might have ingested chemicals. It was disgusting to watch and I couldn’t believe the poor mannered employees.

Finally a renovated and updated 2022 breakfast, brunch joint in the neighbourhood. Great ambiance, food and staff - portions are not overly sweet and salty not huge - just perfect. Thank you

Great service, the staff accommodated or requests without any issues. The food came out quick and was satisfying, with the dependable First Watch quality and flavor.

Today customer service was lacking tremendously. I was highly unimpressed by the dramatic change in consistency of menu items ordered as well as the service given after the original complaint was made. Clearly management couldn't care less and staff at least in the kitchen and anyone that I dealt with has become complacent. Training is needed at this particular location in terms of getting menu items correct accordingly to standard as well as overall service standards. I will not be coming back. With the mentality there, I'm sure they will be happy for that.

ÇLEAN, excellent service, friendly staff. Food perfect. Our favorite place to dine, breakfast, lunch or dinner it's always a winner!

Delicious food, decent portion sizes, just a bit pricey. They use high quality ingredients and has a smaller selection of plates that they do really well.
