Good solid food at reasonable price, small town atmosphere, comfortable and cozy. Many people have been coming for years.

Love going here. It's warm and inviting. It feels like a lot of places I went to growing up and so that gives it an extra bonus at least for me. Prices are great, the staff are great too. I feel lucky this place is so close and their pancakes are probably some of the best pancakes I've had. read more

CAUTION: IF YOU ARENT WHITE DONT COME CAUCION: SI NO TIENES PELOS DE ELOTE NO VENGAS It's a Sunday morning, me and my family decided to get some breakfast. Our usual spot is in Monrovia and we love it there but we are not locals anymore since we moved out in this area we are looking for hidden gems. I was really hoping this would be it since our favorite spot has the same vibe and menu. We walked in and it was super busy that's normal now a days you squally wait 15-20 minutes. We waited patiently and eventually got sat down. I kid you not we didn't get our orders taken after 30 mins. We are Hispanic family and just the feeling of being not taken care of because of our background sucks. The waitress had mentioned to me that she was going to come by and take our orders she served us coffee but that's literally it. Then two big white families came in after us and got seated right away and got their orders taken all within that time span. It's upsetting to see that being done right in front of your face. It's a slap in the face. I tried keeping my composure but I eventually told the waitress that why weren't we being taken care of!?! And why were the other families taken care of before us when we were here first? WTF!!! Anyways she apologized and I think her apology was genuine. I will give her the benefit of the doubt. Anyways food is not worth coming here. I make better breakfast at home respectfully. Just don't come if you're Hispanic bc you will feel bad. read more

A few weeks ago I was supposed to try this place with a friend but couldn't. So we finally got a chance to try it today. Family owned open for 23 years, this little gem in Shadow Hill is amazing. Walking in you don't feel like you're in California but in some country side in the south. Shadow Hill is a horse town so it's definitely giving the south. Anyways I digress... I got the steak and eggs with a muffin on gravy and my friend got the country fried steak with pancakes. We also got sourdough bread with butter on the side. Emily our waitress was very nice, sweet and attentive and so was everyone else. From the time we placed our order, it didn't take long when we got our food. The food was cooked to perfection and tasted fresh. I will say they had a pretty good selection for breakfast, that also included Mexican/Tex mix breakfast. We will definitely be coming back to try their lunch. If I had to rate this place it would be 9 out of 10. If you're in the 818 area please be sure to visit this spot. Side bar muffin and gravy so good and the pancakes were amazing they were so fluffy and the syrup was delicious not too sweet. You can tell there are a lot of regulars that come in, the vibes was definitely friendly and family oriented. Please note that it is cash only and if there's no parking in the front or side there's additional parking in the back. read more

Tuna melt with fried green beans, cottage cheese and fruit, ice tea and lemonade. Rise n Shine is a wonderful horse neighborhood favorite breakfast and lunch cafe. A must visit for anybody visiting Sun Valley, Sunland, or the Crescenta valley. The staff is always friendly like family, the walls are covered with all the best cowboy/girl favorite pictures, posters and sayings. It's a joy to eat here. read more

I love coming to Rise N Shine cafe. This is truly a family owned and run restaurant. It's has a country / cowboy theme. The owner is always quick to greet everyone, no matter how busy they get. As a rule of thumb when traveling I always ask where the local FD or PD go to eat and this restaurant is definitely on their list. It's not uncommon to see police or fire personnel enjoying their morning breakfast at Rise N Shine. The menu has classic American breakfast options but they also offer Hispanic options and as Mexican raised individual, I can confidently recommend their chilaquiles. Every time I go it's like visiting an old friend. Mel the owner has a great memory truly makes an effort to learn everyone's name. read more

Great little spot we found today! Emilie was our waitress, and she was amazing--she shared her favorites and gave us great suggestions. The homemade biscuits and salsa were incredible. If you're in the area, definitely stop by and enjoy a fantastic meal with wonderful people. read more

Rise N Shine Cafe - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Los Angeles, California

You find a great, chill breakfast spot that you want to keep secret because the crowds will ruin the relaxing experience But, I must hail the great people and food of this western themed breakfast joint I had the pork chops, eggs (2)) , yummy breakfast potatoes plus 2 pancakes for under $18 Great service keeps the hot coffee full - don't miss the homemade salsa read more

I enjoyed being here once before. I had a hankering to go back. Finally I got the chance today. I usually only drink black coffee until noon, and lately have only been eating one meal a day, so I really miss breakfast. Anyways, the wife and I dropped in about 11 am. The place was about 3/4 full. You seat yourself, or wait at the counter (I had forgotten about that from last time when we went with my wife's cousin and his wife), and they will tell you/seat you. My wife had eggs and bacon. I chose eggs and sausage. A big plus is you can choose between toast, a pancake, or a biscuit and gravy (one of my favorites). My wife had the pancake and guess what I chose? The waitress served our drinks (coffee) right away and helped my wife to decide between a side order of onions rings versus zucchini sticks. As she mentioned, you can get onion rings anywhere. The sticks were thinly and evenly battered, texture was perfect with a tasty seasoning. BTW, it comes with not two, but three eggs. While we waited I was admiring everything on the walls. A picture of George Strait, a sign that said,"This ain't Denny's", shout outs to LAPD and LAFD, and items too numerous to mention. Our food arrived in a reasonable amount of time (I had noticed about three or four other groups had arrived about the same time we did). Everything was as good as I remembered. I also enjoyed the country potatoes with bell pepper and onions, versus hash browns. We enjoyed it very much, settled up, and left. Important: CASH ONLY. We can't wait until our next visit. This would make a great daily/once a week spot. I forgot to snap a picture. I was too hungry. read more

Perfection! The food was delicious! The server was super amazing-she was friendly and helpful with the menu. The price for the food was very reasonable. This place has this amazing western vibe. Forget those big restaurants and come here. Sorry no pictures. The food looked so good that I jumped in and forgot to take a picture. Try anything-I'm sure you'll love it. read more

5 - Rise N Shine Café We're in Burbank for work and part of our group finished early and found this gem for breakfast... and didn't bother waiting for the rest of us. These sorry suckers tried to brag about it, so naturally the rest of us had to go see what the hype was about. Let me tell you -- they were right. The vibe when we walked in was instantly cool. The décor gives this cozy, homey, but fun feel. The staff? The girls working there were amazing. Their personalities were contagious -- super friendly, funny, and just genuinely great people. They handled our group of seven without any hesitation. Accommodating, attentive, and on point the whole time. Now the food... TOP. TOP. NOTCH. One of the guys in our group ordered the ribeye steak and eggs, and they kept offering him more food -- biscuits, pancakes, you name it. He couldn't stop talking about how the pancakes were "1000% delicious." That's a direct quote. And he doesn't talk like that about anything. Everything we tried was fresh, flavorful, and made with care. No shortcuts, no "meh" items. Just straight-up amazing breakfast. I seriously cannot wait to come back again -- and this time, I'm bringing my family. If you're anywhere near Burbank, go to Rise N Shine Café. You will not be disappointed. read more

Terrible experience at this establishment. I wish I could give it 0 stars but yelp doesn't give me the option. :\ This being our second visit. Upon arriving we were able to sit ourselves but we sat for about 5 mins and no one came to attend us or give us menu's. But as soon as a caucasian family of 5 walked in they were greeted with the warmest welcomes and were given menus right away. The rude waitress walked pass by us seeing that we had nothing if front of us and smiled at us while she handed THEM the menus. So rude and disrespectful! I would never give my money to this business ever again. Waste of time and waste of gas. read more

Great local restaurant for breakfast and lunch. Food is very good and the service is excellent!

I believe i just grabbed food from here, it wasn't bad!! Nice little cafe! I had French toast and fruit.. can't go wrong with that.

Food came out pretty quickly. Nice and warm. I had the French toast deluxe with bacon and easy scrambled eggs. I couldn't have done it better at home. Kudos to RiseNShine!! See you next week! read more

Wonderful family Cafe!!! The food and service is always Amazing! Wonderful breakfast and lunch! This is a treat! I always take guest from out of town, they are all ways impressed with the food and Ambience of the fun decor!!!! This is the best place in town!!!!!! read more

Great breakfast cafe in the hills of Sunland. Unassuming corner cafe, great coffee, good 'ole American breakfast menu, no frills. Biscuit is buttery and a must get, pancakes are melt in your mouth. Their dishes are diner like and plentiful. I suggest getting here early since they do get awfully crowded and there's nowhere to sit while waiting for a table. Bring cash - yes it's cash only. That can be tough for those who never carry cash or not prepared upon arrival. All in all, great breakfast joint; definitely worth coming back. read more

Nice cozy atmosphere. Great staff ! Delicious food . It is only cash. But they have an atm machine there if you don't have cash on you at arrival . read more

Get the pancakes. I cannot eat them anywhere else.They are the best I had in My whole life. Omelets are excellent. Family owned and run very friendly. Interesting place to eat , all the pictures on the walls and stuff read more

Having breakfast with a friend, This place has the best pancakes and their French toast is really delicious too, I usually will order the Western Omelette and instead of country potatoes or hash browns I usually will order the tomato slices and sometimes I get a side of avocado. This morning I ordered the hamburger patty and three eggs over easy and the tomato slices and coffee and my friend Dave ordered the corn-beef hash with country potatoes and rye toast and coffee, both our meals with tax was $43.70 and so I paid $50.00 to include the tip. I highly recommend this place read more

Absolutely a must go for an incredible meal and the service is always amazing. I recently took my family out for breakfast and they had a wonderful experience. I've been going there off and on for 13 years and they never disappoint!! read more

Very cool cafe with some fun decor including Yankees baseball hanging up against the wall. Great breakfast with top notch customer service. LAPD eating breakfast gave my son a sticker and a free slushy coup which was pretty cool. Thank you Melinda and crew for the hospitality read more

We love Rise N Shine. We come in for breakfast before we take our kids to school a few times a week. Mel and her team have us in and out in 30 minutes making mornings so much easier for us. The food is always solid. The staff and regular patrons are very friendly and welcoming of our kids. My oldest likes to help pass out menus and welcome people in. Its become our Cheers! read more

Food was ok, service was great. After eating with my family of 6, when we went to pay we were informed it was cash only. There is an ATM there, but those charge ridiculous fees, as does our bank. Had we been informed when we came in that it was cash only, we would have left. There are also uncharges on virtually everything that are not mentioned on the menu. We won't be returning. read more

It is a wonderful place to eat. The food is always great and the servers are very friendly. Be sure to bring cash because they don't take credit cards. But they do have an ATM machine. It is my favorite place to eat!! read more

First time at Rise N Shine and we had an amazing experience! We were greeted warmly as we entered. The staff were nice and welcoming. Our hostess was friendly and that always deserves a star. Our food was delicious and everyone enjoyed every bite! My veggie omelette was tasty. All breakfast came with either toast, pancakes or biscuits and gravy. The children loved the pancakes. My daughter ordered the rib eye steak and eggs and she raved about it the whole time. We also loved the decor. The ambiance was like being in a country. Felt like we were in another state like Texas or something. It was so cool and relaxing. Now we know where to go after going to the shooting range. Highly recommend if you are in the area. They offer a lot of options and their breakfast options are really good. We can't wait to go back. They also have parking available in the plaza. We really loved everything about Rise N Shine. Just wished they had white rice too read more

So today was our first time here, it is located on the corner and not a lot of parking in front. You enter and it had a fun ambiance to it. Good amount of different menu options but no pictures. We ordered the food and it didn't take too long to get it. Food was good although they forgot my friend's toast and our waitress was busy so it did take a little time to get it. The bill came and it had 4 items on it but we only ordered 2 plates of food. We told her and she charged us for drinks we didn't have so she took them off; simple mistake. We didn't realize it was Cash Only so we barely had enough to pay the bill. The service overall was ok, she was busy, forgot the toast, never asked if we needed refills on the water, had to ask for a to-go container, had to get the extra charges taken off the bill, etc. We paid at the front and left, after that my friend was fine but my stomach was feeling odd a couple hours later and I thought I might throw up but lucky didn't. read more

CASH ONLY. Nice little spot in Shadow Hills. We rolled in for breakfast after our round of golf at Hansen Dam. Not bad on a Sunday, plenty of parking spots, no wait. Tons of locals, kind of a hidden gem. The food is good. Loved their breakfast (I had the corned beef hash and eggs with pancakes). My son had a nice Turkey sandwich with some fries. The decor is quite Country. Tons of pictures up. Good service, good food. Don't forget, cash only. There's an ATM in the back. read more

The food is great, service is excellent and their accommodations are comfy. We will definitely return.

I've been here before and it was good. But today was a big slap to the face. Me (Hispanic)and my S/O (Hispanic)walked in and were told to sit anywhere we like so we did. We waited for maybe about 5 minutes and that's when a Caucasian group walked in and were tended to immediately. The server literally looked us in the face and smiled as she went to help them first. I had a weird feeling about going to this place today and yea I should've trusted my gut. What a way to start the day by getting discriminated. It's my fault for going but now I know we're not welcomed. read more

My auntie took me and my cousin hear for the first time yesterday, very cool atmosphere huge menu i got the ham club and fries and we all got the chicken tortilla soup which was to tie for. The owner Melinda kept checking on us and gave us a back round on the spot staff was great food was amazing they even have grits I will be a forever customer and place is very clean read more

I had this place in mind for a while now and finally got to go today, very nice and cousy ambiance, felt I was in a different state. Food is good, fresh and plenty. Personal very amicable and attentive to your needs. All in all a good experience and looking forward to the next time to try something else from the menu. This time I had the Chorizo and egg breakfast, very good. Not too salty, nice portion. Very good experience. read more

My husband and I recently moved to the area. We stopped in for lunch and experienced friendly service, a casual atmosphere and solid diner/cafe food. I feel the prices match the portions - my turkey club lasted me two meals. Looking forward to returning and trying out their breakfast menu. read more

Racist Restaurant , we were completely ignored kept sitting Caucasian families that kept coming in and ignoring us until we spoke up , got sat and were ignored to order , everyone got their food out first, even families that came in literally when we had already ordered our food got their food first ! please beware read more

Truly a hidden gem! On my way out to arizona or even coming back home to Bakersfield- we no longer head to Dennys or Ihop! We find a way to always come here, it's a must! They are all so welcoming and the food is amazing! You can tell it's homemade and made with love! We always go right at 7am and sometimes we catch some policemen ending their shift with some good breakfast! Great atmosphere all around! Make sure you bring cash! No cards or apple-pay! read more
