I LOVE it here. The staff were really attentive to my gluten allergy and generous with their portions. They were also very friendly and efficient. They went above and beyond!
My husband had been raving to me about First Watch in Asheville. This location was my first experience. It was a Sunday morning @ 10 am & the restaurant was EXTREMELY crowded! We were fortunate as a party of two and were seated quickly. We ordered, and breakfast arrived within 15 minutes which I felt was great. I had the Traditional Breakfast and was pleased that gluten free toast was available. The food was high quality and very good. Our server was great as well. The only complaint I have about this establishment is that the tables are jammed so close together. Where we were sitting, you could actually disturb and bump into people at the next table. You had to strategically sit. I left my seat to use the restroom and when I got back, a different party had been seated next to us. It was impossible for me to get back to my seat he was so close to my chair. I had to reach over the table to collect my belongings. It was very uncomfortable sitting this closely to other patrons throughout the meal.
I will probably not be back to this location, as we were traveling, but I will try other locations, and hope the seating is much better.
It'd been years since we've eaten here, not because of a bad experience, just because we've got our favorites & we don't stray from those very much. Well we've added this to the list of our favorites. We went there for lunch right at opening. We had the sweetest waitress & the food was fantastic. We were feeling pasta so we ordered from the dinner menu. Our Italian salads were fresh & delicious. We both had versions of spaghetti, with one of them with gluten-free bowtie noodles. They were great & We'll be getting those again. We also had the strawberry cheesecake which we had to order two of so we wouldn't fight over it. It was a lovely meal from beginning to end.
Worse pizza restaurant we tried, the service is horrible as well, we waited 10 min for drinks and 40 min for the order pizza ( it was 2pm with an empty restaurant) the gluten free food was gross. They burn the pizza the first time and the second time they did not add the toppings, we were 1 1/2 hr in the restaurant. Very disappointed. The environment and kids menu is not kid friendly. Overall horrible experience, we won’t be back.
Great food and good sized portions. It's the perfect restaurant for someone who is gluten and dairy free, as well for those who CAN have gluten and dairy! I always get a bowl, which is rice, beans, your choice of meat, lettuce, salsa, guacamole, and cheese and sour cream (I skip those since I'm dairy free). It also comes with hot corn tortilla chips! Delicious!
Their spiraling drive through is interesting, but it works. I just found out they have a gluten free bun option, so I am excited to try that next time.
My family and I had dinner. Our server, Sara, was terrific! She helped my granddaughter with her gluten-free menu, and she was very polite. Thank you to Sara R and the rest of the staff for an excellent meal and experience.
