| - Phew! No line on a Saturday morning?! Is this breakfast heaven? OK, so maybe the big golf event thing down the road snatched up all the people? It was empty(at 11 a.m.! On a Saturday!) Fine by me, since I DGAF about sports and I do GAF about breakfast foods.
The S.O. and I moved up here in August from Tucson. We were excited to see Good Egg because we have them in Tucson and we were fans. We were able to visit a couple times as Good Egg, now we came in to try as First Watch. Unless it was a money thing, I don't really see the need for a new name/ menu. We liked GE, and the food.
The menu is similar, a few new changes and the prices are similar. One of the new additions are fresh juices like kale ginger and pear. I tried kale once, I don't want it in my juice.
The service has been consistently good. Our server was very nice and attentive. I like that they offer flavored coffee creamer at the table. Also, the coffee is great and they leave the carafe at your table so you don't have to wait for a top off.
I ordered biscuits and sausage gravy. Tasty and large portions (served with 2 eggs and taters). The gravy was a bit more like a creamy meat sauce. Think of the consistency of marinara meat sauce. Its mostly meat, in a sauce. The gravy was mostly meat, in a creamy pan gravy. No complaints, at all, but I was expecting a creamy gravy peppered with turkey sausage. Delicious, just different than what was in my head. Ended up taking half home for leftovers!
The trusty S.O. got some kind of eggs, pancake and bacon. He cleaned his plate before I was done eating, which is rare for him! So it must have been great, for I heard nary a peep from him til he was done. Good job babe.
So, with the new name and menu came a few changes. Nothing too drastic and the prices are just about the same. They still have great service and big smiles. The coffee is still excellent (I always ask for a to-go cup, for the road). I'm glad the changes didn't kill the chill vibes. Great job, FW.
