    Blueberry muffin - 11 out of 10
    Brynt L.

    I have always passed this place and decided to check them out over the weekend. It was an absolutely packed! Note, be sure to go early on a Saturday. I was told that I had to try their cinnamon rolls. When I arrived I saw they also had a special pecan pie cinnamon roll -- I mean, c'mon! Unfortunately, they had just fold the last two to the person right before me. A little disappointed. I was not going to leave there empty handed. I decided to get the blueberry muffin. Undoubtedly, the best blueberry muffin I have had. It was perfectly moist, fresh tasting and not overly sweet. While I was disappointed I couldn't get the cinnamon roll, I think any thing is a safe bet here. I'll definitely be back.

    Turkey bacon avocado sandwich

    This is a really fun spot to go to for breakfast or lunch. They had plenty of parking in the back, which was nice. I ordered the turkey and avocado sandwich with fries and my friend ordered the breakfast burrito and we were both happy with what we got. I asked for a side of ranch with my fries and the ranch was absolutely delicious. I would definitely come back and I would love to try something else to see what else they have on the menu!

    We found Sunflower after moving to the neighborhood last year, and have been fans ever since. The food at Sunflower is excellent, the service is efficient and friendly, and the ambiance is inviting. The place is almost always packed with customers dining in for a late breakfast, and the laptop crowd, working with a coffee. The people at Sunflower care about their product and providing a great experience to patrons, and they go above and beyond to show it: Recently, I've been picking up breakfast and lunch more often - my wife and I have a newborn, and Sunflower's breakfast sandwiches have been highly requested in our house. I casually dropped this detail while ordering this week, and was surprised with two chocolate chip cookies and a congratulatory note in our order. This was a total surprise, and the sweet treat was appreciated by two, sleep-deprived parents. Definitely give Sunflower a try. This place is one of our favorites in Greenville!

    Southern breakfast with sausage
    Debbie M.

    Visited Sunflower Cafe today with the hubs. Parking lot was noticeably missing marked handicapped parking, but there were close/ramped spots available. This is a counter-order shop / bus your own table restaurant. They offer a lovely variety of pastries to choose from. Plenty of "fancy" coffee variations, though I ordered regular coffee. It was good. Seating in the restaurant is either wooden benches or metal chairs. This seems to be the trendy thing, but is not necessarily the most comfortable seating. That being said, the decor is simple and tasteful. We had breakfast, and both chose the Southern breakfast. Our breakfast was accurate and came out quickly. Both ordered our eggs scrambled, one with bacon and one with sausage. The eggs were good, but very well done. I happen to like them that way, so it's all good! Sausage and bacon were both good--especially the bacon which was a thick cut and the portion plentiful. What stole the show, though, was the Adluh Mills grits. Smooth, buttery, creamy, and served hot in a bowl. Delicious! That means a log coming from this picky Southern gal! Ciabatta toast comes with the Southern breakfast, which is a very pleasant change from the usual fare at other places. I suspect that once word gets out, this will be a popular spot!

    Gouda Burger not to be confused with "The Good Burger" from Arby's I saw this burger on my Facebook feed and was like..... the koolaid man! Oh yeahhhhhhhh sweet and savory is my FAV combination. They had me at housemade bacon jam. It was a big big burger! I couldn't finish it all but it was delicious for sure. I also heard the pastries are amazing so I had to pick up a couple. I grabbed the Cinnamon bun which was HUGE as you can see. I took a small bite but it needs to be warmed up for me to decide if I love it. I also picked up the apple cake with maple frosting. THIS THANG MADE THE WHOLE TRIP WORTH IT. Moist (sorry if this triggered you), not overly sweet, chunk of apples and yumminess. I would come back literally just for this cake alone. I'm excited to go back and try some of the breakfast menu items soon. Oh and I almost forgot, the service was great for pickup! They are very friendly.

    We stopped in on a road trip down to Atlanta. Life is too short to eat bad food so I had done my homework beforehand and this place was on our radar. Service was excellent, the food was delicious, and such a cute little sandwich shop! Upfitted and tidy location. Good work!

    Chicken salad sandwich and tomato soup
    Christine A.

    I was craving a sandwich and soup and found Sunflower with a quick Yelp search. The ambiance is very dull, almost feels like you're eating at a fast food joint. The service was excellent, the lady who took our order was super friendly. I got the chicken salad sandwich and tomato soup. I thought the soup was pretty good, but the sandwich was pretty terrible. Chicken salad had almost no flavor and the bread as you can see in the picture was rubbery and burnt. My mom got a breakfast sandwich, she said it was ok but nothing special. She also ordered without tomatoes because of her heartburn and it came with them on it, not a big deal but a lack of attention to detail. Expected more out of this place with the previous reviews, maybe we hit it on an off day but would not recommend from this experience.

    S.E.C Sandwich
    Schyler D.

    Tasty breakfast spot. I got the S.E.C. sandwich, which was greasy, flavorful, and hot! The bun was definitely fresh which elevated it to another level. Only complaint was that the sausage patty was a bit small. The coffee was good as well

    Cheese Grits
    Stewart J.

    My wife and I tried Sunflower while on vacation in Greenville. Having grown up in Greenville, I knew that the building had been one the first Pizza Huts in Greenville from the early 1970s, then a succession of other restaurants and bars over the last 25 years. So it was great to see another restaurant opening in the same building which I had many pleasant memories from eating pizza in the 70s. We both had the Bacon Egg & Cheese on a homemade Ciabbotta Roll and Cheese Grits. The sandwiches were delicious and bacon and eggs were cooked perfectly. The Ciabbotta Roll was baked on site and was perfectly suited to go with the breakfast sandwich. It would be great with a hamburger or a Italian coldcut sandwich. The Cheese Grits were very creamy and tasty, though they could have been better with a little less salt. This is why only complaint witah the grits. My wife had coffee to drink and I had a Latte. The Latte was outstanding, much better than several of the coffee chains that have cropped up across Columbia in recent years. Not only was the Latte delicious but it was was prepared by a talented Barrista who knew how to present to drink with the picture of a flower. The decision to try Sunflower was guided by the Yelp Top Breakfast List in Greenville. The list did not mislead: Sunflower is top spot to eat breakfast in Greenville!

    breakfast burrito was the best I've had in the area, vibe is good, they could probably benefit with some more staff!

    Back - Turkey Bacon Ranch Front - Italian Both and the fries delicious

    Great breakfast and lunch spot! My breakfast was so good I came back a second time in the weekend to get lunch. For breakfast I got the SEC sandwich and added a side of potatoes. They were delicious and a good portion and quality for the price. The front counter staff were so friendly and helpful. For lunch I got the Italian sandwich and my friend got the Turkey Bacon Ranch, both with a side of fries. We enjoyed them and again, great portion and quality for the price. The Italian was a fresh and unique-seeming take on the classic. I really enjoyed the vibe and decor inside. Unique design, a lot of natural light, and good background music playing. Looking forward to returning and bringing others to enjoy it as well!

    Stopped in here for being highly rated for not only cakes but more specifically carrot cake…read more The staff was friendly and there's tons of baked goods all around the small space. Your head almost spins trying to see everything. Thankfully I was there for one thing. I ordered the slice of carrot cake which was pre cut. Which I typically try to avoid but they said that's what they had. We chatted briefly about extremely sweet icing and cake preferences before paying and leaving. The cake itself almost had zero sweetness to it which made the icing taste extremely sweet and unbalanced between to two. Even by itself the icing was very sweet. The cake , probably because it was precut and sitting for who knows how long, wasn't very moist. While not unbearably dry it was pushing the line of being too dry. I think a fresh cut slice would be way better moisture wise, but still unbalanced sweetness. I'd like to see what else the city a has to offer cake wise but I wouldn't call this one particularly great. I'd call this 2.5/5 but can't give half star reviews. The cake being the main reason for the visit and being kind of dry and unbalanced impacts the whole experience

    I've wanted to visit Carmella's for some time, and today was the day we made it…read more I'm glad I had GPS, because Carmella's is in a somewhat odd location. You can't drive up to it, so that's a consideration for people with any ambulatory issues. However, there is a parking garage close by, so that will satisfy most people. I drove into the access for the parking garage, and dropped off hubby, as he has had recent foot surgery. I then drove back out to the street and parked. I do like free parking. The area in front of Carmella's is beautiful and expansive. A breeze was blowing, the leaves were moving, and you get to capture that view and feeling inside the restaurant. We sat right at a window. Hubby and I shared the Raspberry Almond Tart (GF) and a Latte. Yeah, it was GOOD. I mean good as in I Could Have Eaten An Entire Tart. But, come on; you know I didn't need that whole thing. Sigh. I can give my full endorsement of Carmella's, and especially their gluten-free tarts. SO delicious.

    I've been to Carmella's plenty of times, and one thing I really appreciate is they offer breakfast…read moreuntil 10:45 a.m. Sometimes you aren't ready for breakfast at 8am so this is a nice option. I will admit that my initial reaction to the Belgium waffle wasn't great. For a dine in experience, being served in a to-go container felt a little off, and the Smucker's syrup didn't exactly help matters. Let's be honest, that's not real maple syrup, and it definitely took away from the presentation. That said, the waffle itself redeemed those first impressions. It was delicious, light, and had this subtle hint of vanilla that made it feel a little more special than your standard waffle. That touch of sweetness and flavor helped me quickly forget my initial disappointment. The breakfast presentation could use a little upgrade, but the taste absolutely delivered.

I know you're thinking, "there's no way that tasted good" but it did! My sis has lots of food sensitivities that cause her auto-immune eczema to break out so we avoid all those allergens. My sister LOVED this cake! I wanted a special cake for her 30th since she hasn't eaten cake in 5 years! Christine from Baking Sweet Scents was up to the challenge and spent time with me listing ingredients so we were completely sure it was safe. I really appreciated the time and effort. Christine also deals with some allergens so she understands the difficulties. I selected the chocolate almond flour cake, double layered, semi-naked, with stevia instead of sugar, and macarons on top to be nestled into the specific flowers I wanted, gladiolus for August birthday month. The cost for this custom cake with all the specific ingredients was so reasonable. I will be ordering another smaller one for my grandmother's 80th who also avoids sugar and gluten. I see this trend becoming popular, thanks Christine!
