First time at SHU and I was impressed. This is the perfect brunch spot. Ambiance does not disappoint. Their drinks are impressive. Food was delicious. Service was also great - shout out to Liz, our waitress. She helped pick our drinks and made us feel welcomed. Can't wait to come back! read more

Service was fast, food was delectable, staff was very friendly. This restaurant was probably one of the best places in the city. The ambience was incredible, the nice, pretty setting had me star struck. read more

I have been to Sunny Hyde Up a few times, and it is a great local brunch spot. Their brunch drinks are really good, and I appreciate the variety of breakfast options on the menu. It is an easy place to find something you are in the mood for. The reason for four stars instead of five is the service. Each time I have been, it has felt a bit slow. During our last visit, we would have ordered another round of drinks if our server had come by more frequently. Overall, I do really like this spot and will continue to come back. With a little more consistency in service, it would easily be a five star experience. read more

Its absolutely beautiful inside -- an upgrade Visalia needs! Long waits for tables (understandable), practically impossible to get a drink while you're waiting (bummer). But the reason we came here was the food and it just didn't hit. It was expensive and mid. Our table was 50/50 on who liked their orders and with long waits for a seat, that makes it a 3 star spot. read more

First time at SHU was one to remember! My wife had been several times and highly recommended, and she did not over hype. Ambiance and atmosphere are great, service was top tier (thanks Liz!!) and the food was incredible. This is definitely a spot to try, and one we will be enjoying again soon! Tri Tip and Eggs was fantastic!! read more

Amazing service. Sat at the bar for Easter. Max was an awesome mixologist creating amazing drinks that were off menu. Sat next to the owners parents who were super nice and even let me try their Chicharrónes and guacamole which was very tasty. If you love spice get the huevos rancheros. Definitely will be back. This place is such an amazing vibe. Loved the cocktail that max created for me it had carrot juice and gin in it---was the best cocktail I've ever tasted!!! read more

I can't tell you what a great experience the three times we have gone to brunch here! The food is excellent! I'm not one to try different things. If I like something I stick with it. However, I have tried so many dishes here and all were amazing! I also want to say how comfortable the atmosphere is. We never felt rushed and the service was efficient, spot on and so friendly! Great service! Highly recommend this restaurant! read more

This place is very nice I am from Las Vegas so it definitely gives that vibe of a fun brunch, we came yesterday December 20th, 2025 and had reservations for 11:15am we arrived at 11:04am and checked in with the host the place was packed so we waited outside when some space inside finally opened up we took a seat we seen allot of guest walk in and didn't have reservations and were told a wait time many walked out, the hosts seemed a little overwhelmed and lost when it came to seating the guests we didn't get seated until closed to 11:30, they sat us next a door that was operable that guests could walk in and out of, imagine eating an people are are just walking in and out of a side door next to your table. We sat at the table for about 10 mins before a server came to us, I believe her name was Victoria she took our order and asked if we were ready to order food but we were not another few mins passes and received our drinks we ordered the Christmas tree of mimosas and it was $45 and they were good. She came back again and took our order, upon watching the dining room I could see they were very busy sections seemed a little large for the severs considering allot of them were not checking in on their tables. Everyone else got their food before me I ordered the chicken and waffles and received mine last significantly so past that everyone at the table was halfway through their food I had two different food runners tell me sorry yours should be coming soon, I have no problem waiting for something if you tell me that the item I'm ordering has a little more of a drag time but nobody did. The server never came around again until it was time to pay, we sat for awhile before she came by and we had to ask for the check and that took a while to bring as well, a manger or owner was walking around talking to some but not all tables and let's just say mine definitely wasn't one that was touched. The check was finally dropped and again we waited for her to pick it up, then another girl came and dropped the check off, as we were signing the check the server finally came back over and said thanks for coming by then it was too late you were barley talking with us engaging with us it was a very transactional experience. As someone who has managed many restaurants on the strip maybe my expectations were too high but interacting with your table isn't too much to ask for. Seems like they need smaller sections and updating resy on their turn times for reservations so it's not so overwhelming , the food is good and that's why this place is packed but the service is not good and with me the food can be outstanding but if the service is not then that creates a bad experience for me. read more

Opened in summer of 2025, Sunny Hyde Up is a great brunch/lunch spot. It's been open for a few months and it's still a little rough on operations. The interior is pretty nice and appealing for a local brunch. It has a pretty large dining room with quite a bit of space. We went in on a Friday morning and service was a little slow but there weren't many servers working at the time. Our server was very lovely. There was a bit of delay with service but it wasn't too long. The food was very delicious. The French toast was so delicious. The filling was rich and could have been great with a little less. The churros were crunchy and perfectly dusted is cinnamon sugar. The chilaquiles were cooked very nicely and the beef machaca had such a flavorful broth that was paired nicely with the pickled onions. Picked onions by the way were nicely crunchy rather than soggy old onions that other places may use. The portions are BIG, both my friend and I weren't able to finish our food! read more

Was excited to try this food but unfortunately didn't because the next opening was 4 hours later. The place was empty and the hosts were not accommodating. Disappointed and shocked. read more

First I'll start by saying this place definitely gives you a Los Angeles feel here in Visalia. The restaurant is beautiful. Perfect for parties or special occasions. We came today for a causal breakfast. The Chilaquiles were 6/10. The Machaca was seasoned perfectly. The meat was amazing. My issue was the store bought salsa that was so running if you don't eat this fast you'll have soggy chips at the bottom. It ended up being more of a soggy soup. The chicken and waffles 9/10. We ordered them spicy and the macha salsa was perfect! The portion for the price was great too. Service was great. Seated fairly quickly, food came out quick also. I'll be back but we have better breakfast spots of food is the goal. If you're looking for a vibe and tipzy brunch this is the best spot in Visalia read more

My wife and I came here for a brunch date, and Sunny Hyde Up impressed us from the start. The restaurant feels clean, modern, and trendy, with a great vibe. The bar area is beautiful, and the place was packed with people clearly enjoying themselves. Despite being busy, the staff stayed on top of everything. We had a reservation, arrived a little early, and were seated right away. We started with coffees, which were surprisingly good for brewed restaurant coffee. For food, I ordered the chilaquiles and my wife had the salmon bagel with egg. We also split a pancake as an "appetizer." The chilaquiles were excellent -- warm, cheesy chips stacked with flavor and topped with a perfectly cooked egg. My wife's dish came with potatoes that were outstanding on their own. The salmon bagel was also solid. And that pancake? Light, fluffy, and full of flavor -- gone in minutes. Our ratings: * Ambience: 10/10 * Food: 10/10 * Service: 9/10 This is one of those restaurants where you can tell everything on the menu is going to be good. They put creative spins on both Mexican and American classics, and it works. Highly recommend for brunch, and I'm looking forward to coming back to explore more of the menu. read more

I absolutely cannot recommend this restaurant unless you don't mind having hair in your food. We went to try this restaurant out, the service was good and the drinks were also very good. We ate and took home the leftovers. I ordered the Country Fried Steak with potatoes. That night when I reheated the food for my wife. She found two long hairs in the food. And they were imbedded in the crust. I called the next day to let them know what happened and it felt like the manager did not care about what was in the food. So I cannot recommend this place at all. I also wanted to add to this review a day after I posted it. I received a message from possibly the manager or owner of this establishment. With an apology of my experience with the food. The manager states "During your call, our manager apologized and offered several options to make things right, including an invitation to return so we could provide a better experience. While we understand you were not interested in giving us another opportunity, our goal was genuinely to resolve the situation." The manger I spoke to absolutely did not offer any options and never offered an invitation to return or make things right. She simply apologized and said "Thank you for the feedback" multiple times and I also never asked for my money, a reimbursement of any sort. I was polite and was not rude because I genuinely wanted to return to this restaurant, but with hair in your food that would be impossible. I simply called to tell them that there chef/cooks/workers should be wearing hairnets to avoid something like this in the future. Yes I feel like this is a fair review!! read more

After looking at reviews on Yelp, my wife wanted to come here for her birthday with our adult kids. It is an hour a way, but so worth the drive. Glad we made reservations. Started with drinks. The Banana Bread Old Fashioned's were excellent! Also had the Carajillo which was equally impressive. Usually split breakfasts, not today. I got the spicy chicken and waffles and my wife got the Lobster Benedict. Both were great but not really finding lobster in the Benedict. Son had the chilaquiles and my daughter had breakfast tacos. Server brought a birthday cheesecake slice out. The place is modern and laid out well. We will have to come back! read more

Christmas Eve day my friend and I decided to try the new brunch place in town. I made reservations the day before on resy. We entered and were greeted right away with a short wait. We were seated in the large room on the west side of the building. A server came by and took our drink order. I ordered a $4.50 decaf coffee. Shortly after, she took our food order. I ordered a breakfast burrito for $18. My friend ordered some a la carte items. Then we waited. Others were seated around us. Waited some more. The restaurant was busy, but had empty tables so not slammed. About 45 minutes in, a couple near us who were seated AFTER us, got their food. I finished my coffee. Our server never told us what the wait was for or why and I couldn't find her so I flagged down another server. I explained people seated after us had their food. He went to find out. Still we waited with no explanation. About 55 minutes after arriving, we received our food. Our original server checked on us a couple of times after that. She did not ask if I wanted a refill or another coffee. I would have liked to have the coffee WITH my food but pay another $4.50? No. The food was okay, but nothing special for the cost. When the bill came, the tip guide on it suggested a 30% tip as a minimum. I felt that was a reach. Not impressed with food, value or service. read more

Food was good. Our server was very friendly. I got the patty melt, which was very messy. They didn't have ranch or aioli for the fries and as an avid dipper that was a let down. They brought out a Serrano sauce, but it was a bit too spicy for my taste. However, the wait time for drinks and food was quite long. It took about an hour to receive all parts of our meal, which was just 3 entrees and a mimosa flight. It's cute inside. Not somewhere I would rave about but would go back again if invited by friends or family. read more

The ambience is really nice and the staff is very welcoming and attentive, Which makes it for a pleasant experience. However, the food didn't quite work for me. In my opinion, To many aromatic mixed flavors that don't always come together well. I've visited a few times with family and friends. Trying a new entree every time , but unfortunately, I've been disappointed each time. My tri-tip and eggs entree : Tomatillo sauce was very sour and over portion made crispy potatoes soggy., topped with pickled red onions added more of a pungent taste and did not go well with eggs. Huevos Rancheros entree. Again saturated with tomatillo chilinegro sauce (Spicy) also acidic with pickled onions. Menu just needs a little attention focus on some simple diverse entrees with great flavor. This is only my option to provide thoughtful feedback. I wish you the best in future success. read more

Wanted to have something non traditional for breakfast and decided on the open face omelette with chorizo, fresh house made pico and house made tortillas AWA fried potatoes. So many textures and flavors! A little spicy which I love. Wife had the Lobster Benedict and loved it . There was a minor delay in the food coming out but the place was packed and the food was definitely worth the wait. Can't wait to go back to SHU again soon. read more

I was really excited to try this place out for months, and man was I disappointed. Upon entering, there is a sign to wait to be seated. The restaurant was somewhat full, with a huge party in the back. We were the only ones at the door at the time and waited a minute or two for someone. I walked around to see if I can get anyone's attention but no one was around other than a few servers serving food. By this time, about five minutes pass, and another gentleman walks in. He asks if we were waiting long and we said yes. Not a minute later someone finally came to get us seated, which even then took a few minutes. The hostess stated that he was trying to help with the party in the back, but he wasn't serving them. I understand it being busy and helping, but I feel I am just as important as the bigger party. The table was super tiny for even 3 people to share. Another 2-3 minutes pass, and our waitress finally came to take our drink order (the drinks were the main reason I wanted to try the place other than the food). After taking our drinks, water and 2 cocktails, she leaves again tending to other tables who have already been served or finished their food. Maybe it's just me, but I would have assumed she would ask if we were ready to order or needed a few more minutes to look at the menu (we were both ready). By this time more and more people have come into the restaurant and have been seated more quickly than we have. They have also been served their drinks just as quick. She didn't come back until she came to serve our cocktails, but by then it's been 15 minutes and I told her we were just going to have our drinks and leave. The drinks were delicious, I got the hot cocoa and my sister got the eggnog. I am really sad I didn't get to try their food, but it's hard for me to enjoy any food if I start off with a bad experience. I will likely not return here and I am very disappointed to say that. read more

Sunny Hyde Up has a beautiful, trendy interior. While the vibes were pleasant, my experiences with the food and service have been a hit or miss. On my first visit, we were seated near the bar and weren't given menus right away. Service was very slow and we had to flag down staff multiple times for basics like utensils and water. The meal ended up stretching to two hours. My second visit was smoother, likely because we were seated in the main dining area. Still water was also $8. *Mimosa Flight: trio of pineapple, grapefruit, and orange -- garnished with fresh strawberries, oranges, and blueberries. The pineapple was more champagne-forward, while the other two leaned sweeter with stronger juice flavors. *The Foxtail: standout matcha-based cocktail with a strawberry foam. The foam had a bit of a bubblegum note, but it surprisingly worked with the earthy matcha. *Espresso Martini: served in a short glass instead of the classic martini glass, but the drink itself was great. It had a rich, dark cold brew flavor and was definitely one of the better coffee cocktails I've tried. *Breakfast Bruschetta: three toppings served on crispy English muffins. The avocado spread was creamy with a nice acidic kick. The bruschetta had a strong garlic punch and sweet-tart tomatoes, which worked well together. Unfortunately, the egg was overcooked and lacking in flavor. *Nicoise Salad: nearly inedible. The tuna was over-seasoned with Cajun spices and had a stringy texture. The salad was essentially a pile of croutons, cucumbers, tomatoes, and Parmesan over a couple lettuce leaves. The egg was dry, and the only saving grace was the well-roasted potatoes. The drinks were solid, but the kitchen could benefit from refining flavors and improving the execution of proteins. For a breakfast centric spot, the eggs have been consistently overcooked. Service was inconsistent, but I'll chalk that up to new restaurant growing pains. read more

First time --walk in for brunch after church without a reservation. Waited approximately ten minutes then seated in lounge area. Awesome atmosphere and hip music vibe. Ordered a Bloody Mary and offered a multitude of vodka choices (Belvedere my choice) it was tremendous with tasty black salt and lime on the rim. Followed by the salmon and poached egg. Words can't describe how happy this made my taste buds. Visalia needs more options like Sunny Hyde Up! Well done!! read more

2.5/5 This review is solely based on our 1st and only experience so far. All in all don't miss your 1pm reservation on Sunday. They close at 230, not 3pm and will not seat you. They did offer the bar (where our party of 4 would be split), but when the tables cleared, shortly after we put an order in for take out, they didn't offer it to us. If you're late they'll claim that its an 1hr-1.5hr wait for walkins, but its because they dont seat anyone after 1pm at a table. We showed up 15mins late, thats on us, but I think this could've been handled a bit more elegantly. Again, we thought they closed at 3pm, not 230 as the hostess had informed us. We saw people being turned away after us as more and more tables cleared. It was clear to us that you can sit at the bar or order take out but not be seated at the table after 1pm. In the end we got our order and left. As a warning, dont miss your reservation and don't waste gas unless you want to order takeout. **If i could I would rate it 2/5 but being late is on us and they need to update their hours.** read more

The food is great! The ambience nice, not the kinda vibe you expect to see in Central Valley! That was refreshing and fun. Excellent drinks and cocktails. Only giving 3 stars because the service was super slow. I understand a busy Sunday brunch but almost 2 hour wait time to get your food after placing order is inexcusable. I recommend making reservations or you'll be waiting. read more

I've been here about three times now, the first time it had just opened and the food - nachos con chorizo and chilaquiles de machaca were tasty and fresh, the drink was also good and fun, i think it was called cereal milk. I think the nachos could've done with less cheese sauce because they got soggy super quick, but overall the flavors were good. The second time I went and got a BLT, it was okay, it tasted like burnt garlic and something on it was too strong/ sour. Might have been whatever garlic and cheese was on the bread. The third time i visited i had mixed feelings, I reserved space for 10 guests, I called to try and add two more guests the day before and didn't get a call back, this was my mistake on trying to add so last minute, but despite all this they attempted to originally sit 10 of us in one of their booth nooks, which I think realistically and comfortably sits 8 guests. I felt a bit of attitude from the hosts at the greeting desk, but despite that they were accommodating and helpful. I imagine it was because they were so busy. I also noticed the owner roaming around and looking over at our large group, but not once did he greet us or come over to us try and help the situation. We ended up waiting another maybe 25-30 minutes for a longer table and it was worth all the wait - after this, the service was great and the food came out fast. My one last review was about the tri-tip breakfast, the tri tip was thrown in a bowl in chunks and with chunks of potato and covered in a very very salty salsa verde. There is room for improvement when it comes to plating and presentation with that dish. Serving the tri-tip in strips, crunchy potatoes on the side, with eggs and that salsa on the side or just a bit added over the top of the tri tip, it was salty and barely edible. This is just my honest review from my experiences eating at SHU, the ambience is nice, the interior is pretty, the food is fresh with some dishes having room for improvement. read more

Sunny Hyde Up - Mini pancakes, very tasty. Salmon bagel in the background. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Visalia, California

Came in for a late breakfast on a weekday...pretty busy for what I thought would be a quieter time. Nice looking dining area but the seats are weird. The high seats at the tables have a weird foot rest that's too high so it's uncomfortable in what is a shallow seat...the regular seats sat pretty low...a personal thing, I know but it made for a less than ideal sit down..Ordered the sunny breakfast. Really good food. Our server was really nice...even fixed the auto gratuity before I had a chance to say something. They have auto gratuity on parties of 6+ but apparently their computer/register would add it to every bill. As with previous reviews about things they didn't have, no milk today...end of the world? No. Pet peeve? Yes. Overall,. nice place to eat...just a bit pricey compared to other breakfasts in town. read more

Some hits and some misses and all the misses were merely growing pains and my lack of making my preferences known. Hits-Decor, ambiance, service, food quality, food hot, water chilled. Food quality was great. Every thing was fresh. The pancake was amazing and I never order pancakes but heard about the vanilla butter so had to order one to share. Great decision. Misses-front of house staff seemed too preoccupied and annoyed. We were greeted upon entering but they immediately went back into their conversation. A few minutes later one of the gals apologized saying we'd get seated soon. Sort of bummed with the limited menu options for vegans or people who have dairy or egg allergies. Ordering from the à la carte menu takes all the fun out of a dining experience. No specialty coffees as a huge bummer. From the time we ordered our food to the time we got our food was a little over 45 minutes. The eggs were so gelatinous including the poached egg and had to spoon out all gooey cloudy clumps. Should have asked for a medium egg (my fault). Otherwise I'd go back to try out other menu options. Can't wait for French toast to be added to the menu. read more

My first time being here and walking in to the building is amazing, very intriguing and a wonderful atmosphere. The wait took a while then expected even though I made a reservation so I was not very happy with that.

What went well at Sunny Hyde Up? Everything! We received excellent service, including a check-in from the manager, Samuel Ramirez. We honestly didn't have any notes to share with him. Our food was delicious and the order was served nice and hot. Our server was excellent and checked regularly to make sure all was well. The ambiance was amazing. Sunny Hyde Up is the newly remodeled restaurant at the Lamp Lighter Hotel on the corner of West Main Street and Hwy. 198. For the remodel, Samuel chose to maintain the original integrity of the former restaurant and kept the original floors and layout. For those Visalians that frequently supported the original restaurant, Sunny Hyde Up will feel familiar except a lot brighter with natural light, and an open design that lends to a fun experience. The food is delicious and served beautifully. The portions are filling and they have an open bar. Everyone seemed very happy and pleased to be there. I highly recommend Sunny Hyde Up. read more

Went here on opening weekend ; so happy we made reservations... this place was busy! This is a great addition for Visalia! Loved the decor it's like 70s meets modern. Even though this place was busy; the service was still pretty good and the staff all was friendly. My husband ordered the whiskey flight... he loved it; especially the green river. The flight came with mini sausages and peppered bacon; awesome touch for the whiskey flight. I ordered the brunch burger ; it was delicious; just very messy hahaha. Had to eat it with a knife and fork ; toppings were falling out when I lifted it up using my hands. My husband ordered the breakfast tacos; made with chorizo and blue corn tortillas. The salsa they give you was fire! We also ordered a waffle to share; it was sweet, cooked perfect and delicious. The butter, I coulda just ate by itself with a spoon, but I'm sure my arteries wouldn't have liked that too much. Parking can be challenging; the whole parking lot isn't paved yet; but once it's done they'll be amble parking spots. Will definitely be back! read more

During a recent visit to Sequoia National Park, we stopped at Sunny Hyde Up in Visalia for breakfast. What should have been a simple meal turned into one of the most uncomfortable and infuriating dining experiences we've ever had. We were told the wait would be about 20-30 minutes, which seemed reasonable. But once we were seated, everything went downhill. We were taken to the very back of the restaurant and placed at a neglected corner table with stained chairs and an uncleaned surface. Menus and empty cups were dropped off, and then we were completely ignored. Fifteen minutes passed with no greeting, no offer to take our order, and not even water. Staff walked by repeatedly without acknowledging us. Then another family was seated right next to us. The same server who had been ignoring us suddenly became attentive and friendly--bringing them water immediately and taking their drink order within minutes. Meanwhile, our cups were still empty. The difference in treatment was impossible to ignore. When the server finally came close enough, we flagged her down and asked for water. She asked if we wanted drinks, and we told her we were ready to order since we had already been waiting over 40 minutes. Her response was, "Yeah, but wait give me a second." She brought the water, still didn't take our order, and then went straight back to the other table to take their order--before ours-despite them being seated long after us. The blatant disregard for our table, the dismissive attitude, and the clear difference in service were unacceptable. We had been seated for nearly an hour with no service, no apology, and no acknowledgment. Meanwhile, the family next to us received full service within minutes. The message was loud and clear, and it was infuriating. Hungry, irritated, and tired of being treated like we didn't matter, we got up and left. No one stopped us, no one asked why, and no one seemed to care. I would strongly caution anyone--especially non-locals--to avoid this restaurant. It is unfortunate to say but we did not get a chance to try the food due to bad service. Save yourself the time, the gas, and the frustration of being ignored and made to feel unwelcome. We will never return to Sunny Hyde Up in Visalia, and we do not recommend it. read more

We went to Sunny Hyde ip last week, we had their chilaquiles and their a la carte waffle, pancake and fruit. Food was delicious, my only suggestion is to ask for the butter in the side if you don't like add-ins, one had crushed nuts I believe (tasted like peanut butter) and the kiddo wasn't too fond of it. Great meal, delicious food, nice staff were very attentive. Ambiance was wonderful, it was great to see the building remodeled. Parking lot under construction so give yourself a couple of extra minutes when arriving for a reservation on a weekend. read more

Being from LA, this feels a LOT like the brunch vibes I miss. Truly is my favorite meal to go out for. I've been here on 3 occasions. All three, the food was good. Atmosphere, great. However, service was slightly below average. First time we went, our table broke. And I mean broke broke where it was going to fall over if we let it go and we were just moved. Not sorry for the inconvenience, nothing. Second, was good. We took my daughter. Unfortunately, the kids menu was EXTREMELY limited so we had to get her an adult item, which I didn't really like. Last, we were there for about an hour and a half. Not because we wanted to be, but because the service was THAT bad. Took FOREVER to get our food and even drink. Husband stood with water, I had a cup of coffee. The theme is, the food is good. Slightly over priced, but good. But service was a cool 2/5 stars. I hope it continues to grow and get better because this place reminds me SO much of home. read more
