    Really enjoyed the Harvest Egg in a Hole special. Sourdough bread grilled with two fried eggs in the center topped with Hollandaise sauce. Served with garlicky kale with bacon, onions & mushrooms.

    Drop your plans for brunch in the Fairfax city, because First Watch is as good as it gets. They are offering breakfast, brunch & lunch. I really appreciate their use of healthy ingredients.

    Always great vibes, nice food, tasty coffee, so nice staffs. One thing to remember it's crowded than COVID19 starts(2020). Be sure to join a waitlist online, at least 30-40 min

    Friendly wait staff. Fresh ingredients. Modern interpretations on breakfast classics. The Cajun crab has breakfast is very satisfying.

    Order the Joaquin Yahoo. It's not only fun to say, it's amazingly delicious! This is one of the greatest breakfast places ever, this is coming from a NJ diner breakfast snob!

    This place has never let me down, even when they are slammed. They even provide coffee in the waiting area.

    The wait staff is very courteous. Broccoli and cheese soup is excellent. It's a meal on its own.

    Fairfax store was an experiment (successful) and new store now open in Chantilly. Ten or so more stores planned for DC metro area.

    Better than an IHOP but the check comes out with the food and they are way too eager to take your plates. Food quality is hit or miss - have had plates come out cold.

    It's okay. Decent food and service, but too artsy fartsy renditions of classics. I like traditional, less healthy.

    Get in on Sunday Mornings before 9am to beat the mad rush.
