Hello, for context, my wife and I have been coming to SoBe 3-5 times for the past 25 years…read more Although, Miami can be pricey, but usually you can justify the spend. Front Porch has always been a spot we dined at, mostly for breakfast, but sometimes lunch and dinner. At times, we would stay at the Z Hotel just for Front Porch. Unfortunately, that has changed, and I would never go back or accept a free meal or service--imagine that, never accept a free meal in Miami. The service was bad, actually the waiter was fair to ok, but the bleach blonde older server consumed the air out of the room. She was grumpy, not engaging, and when she spoke her voice was so deep and off putting that it frightened me. The culinary offerings, reminds me of a hospital cafeteria from the 80s/90s . The worst part was the theming and lack of ambiance. It felt like a seedy nightclub or raggedy adult club you have to take a shower after leaving. I had to apologize to wife for such a poor experience. Bad husband! Also, I believe the operation was being managed or run by a small family of 4/5 people with no hospitality, culinary, or service experience. Finally, for $100, I never have to go there again. Front Porch, RIP. Sorry...

On the topic of service we had Philippe, lovely young man that helped me and my party feel accommodated from start to finish. Lovely chill atmosphere without a stuck up or overly pretentious vibe. I would come back to try the brunch, and maybe any gluten free options they have. Happy hour is so worth it, especially if planning to visit the beach after.

The staff saw what happened and jumped to action and called the Meridian store and said they would let everyone know and started making the coffee in their store.

Was quite pleased with what I ordered. Ham Croqueta: Crispy outside breading and very gooey inside. There were nice ham chunks inside. Chicken Croqueta: Same format as the ham croqueta. Though this one was kinda bland. The chicken strands just kinda blended in with the gooey mush center whereas the ham chunks were nice and smoky. Tequeño: Nicely executed with a cheesy center and crispy outside. Cuban Sandwich: I like how they really pay attention an evenly distributed and nicely crisped press on both sides. Many places are only partially crispy. The ratio of ham, pork, cheese, pickles and mustard was just right. The flavors worked in harmony and there wasn't one ingredient that dominated the rest.

It was a cold morning (rare for Miami Beach), but even with the chill, I chose to sit outside since the inside was packed -- always a good sign. I ordered the eggs, potatoes, and turkey sausage, plus an extra side of eggs and more turkey sausage because, why not? Everything was cooked perfectly -- hearty, flavorful, and served hot. The espresso and coffee were both excellent too, strong and smooth without being bitter. What really stood out though was the service. Every staff member I interacted with was friendly, upbeat, and attentive without hovering. You can tell they care about their guests' experience. Simple, satisfying breakfast, great vibe, and top-tier service. Sunnyside Café easily earns a spot on my Miami Beach favorites list. Highly recommend checking it out whether you're local or just visiting!
