I didn't get sick but I couldn't believe we spent $25 for lousy food.

I love first watch, but the pancake House has great hashed browns-- shredded potatoes. So good.

First Watch is the best!

Back when we lived in FC (about 10 years ago), I used to like the Cinnamon Nut French Toast at OPH.

They have no egg dishes, except for flavorless, poofy baked "omelettes." If you want anything other than a sticky sweet carb fest, sorry, there is nothing for you.


They have eggs to order and several benedicts. How is this "no egg dishes"?

So glad to hear someone else say this. I've eaten there several times now and have been consistently disappointed. Last time I ordered their banana pancakes and they were so over-the-top sweet as to be almost inedible. I had a stomach ache for hours afterward.

Their bacon is fantastic. I get the pecan waffle. Kid gets the kids waffle combo. We are here way too often. And I know it isn't fine dining, but neither Nora nor Ruth's Chris is open at 8:30 on a Saturday morning when my toddler wants breakfast.
