    Had to try this new spot! Would give it a solid 3 out of 5. If you're really into Asian fusion I would def recommend to try it out, unfortunately my hubby and I both quickly picked typical brunch menu items and just wasn't super impressed! I think if we potentially stuck with the unique menu items with a flair of actual Asian fusion maybe we'd be more hyped. Service was great! Everyone was nice and attentive. There wasn't a long wait for us to take our order or receive our drinks and food. We got there around 8:45, and glad we did because we noticed only 1 table available. Then a rush showed up around 9. What we ordered: 2 coffees & waters, crispy Benedict, waffle & chicken complete meal.Don't be fooled by the "Sriracha hollandaise" description, it was literally like a dot on top. I was expecting more of a kick or for it to be combined. I think this place would be great to try for anyone who wants something new. But it's unfortunately not making it on my Fave brunch spots lists.

    We came here after going to the farmer's market. They were pretty busy but luckily we were able to get patio seating quickly since we came with our dog. The staff was very kind and moved the umbrellas to keep us in the shade and they also immediately brought over a bowl of ice water for the pup. The unagi omurice was creamy with a nicely whipped egg and the unagi gave it a very savory umami flavor. The husband's Hilo Moco was also good, though a little salty. The bacon side and coffee were solid too. It is a bit pricey, but understandable for Midtown. We'll be back again though to explore more of the menu since we love that they are dog friendly and service was top notch!

    Had the chance to try this spot on 19th street! I had really high expectations as the photos of the food looked great! We came during a weekday so it wasn't as busy, we came between breakfast and lunch before the lunch rush came! My advice, come around 10, u beat the breakfast rush and avoid lunch rush! Parking can be annoying as it's all street parking. Inside decor is cool as the place is modern with an open kitchen and high ceilings! Service was good, workers were friendly and professional! Angela helped us twice now, and she is awesome! She works hard as she's the only one taking orders and she hustles! Respect to Angela! For the food, we ordered the loco moco, with garlic fried rice and a delicious egg that surrounds the garlic fried rice! They used a wagu beef patty and it was a little over cooked but still had great flavor! The Garlic fried rice was delicious as well as the scrambled egg! Great combo! Definitely a must try! The unagi version is extremely popular and my pops loved it! The poutine was decent but not what I expected, good crispy tator tots, house sauce and a Fried egg! I was expecting gravy and those cheese curds but no thick gravy or cheese curds.... French toast was decent, expected it to be a little more soft or fluffier but it was a little more on the dryer side, good flavor but on the drier side! Lemon ricotta pancakes were probably the best ones I've tried! Fluffy, airy, lemon flavor was on point! Must try! The wealthy pig Benedict was great! Nice pieces of bacon, Avocado, and tomato with a house sauce and a poached egg! Excellent poached egg and it was over a sourdough break instead of English muffin! Also this spot has awesome coffee! The barista is awesome! One dude making all the drinks! He made my latte excellent twice now!! Overall, very happy with this spot! A must try!

    Swung by with a few friends for a Saturday brunch. I was pleasantly surprised at how quickly they seated and served us, and we were lucky enough to get a table right next to the window. It's a great place for people watching! I got a mimosa and a tater tot poutine dish. Wow wow wow! They were both super delicious and I felt that the price was more than fair for what I received. Absolutely will be back.

    Fantastic! What a great meal at sunny side. I love the Asian fusion idea, all of the options were freakin delicious and I can't wait to come back to try more. The lemon ricotta pancakes were absolutely perfect, crispy on the sides and fluffy in the middle with the right amount of lemon flavor. Also the service was incredible. We were helped by at least 3 different servers and all the food came out hot and fast. New favorite brunch spot. Food: 5 Service: 5 Ambiance: 4.5 Value: 4.2 Marcels foodie score: 4.7

    Lemon ricotta pancakes

    I heard of this place via TikTok and thought it would be overhyped and was hesitant to try it, especially after hearing about the long wait times. We came on a Saturday morning at 10am and waited about 30 minutes. Not terrible at all for a weekend. We ordered the lemon ricotta pancakes with a side of crispy Yukon potatoes and the unagi omurice. Everything was so delicious! The pancakes were just sweet enough and seemed like they were made of a mochi batter. They were somehow both light and crispy. The ginger rice was really good in the unagi omurice. They took our order really quickly and the food came out fast too. They seem to have a good system down to minimize the wait. I definitely will be back.

    I love that asian brunches are becoming so popular - and for good reason! We split a little of everything, from the different mimosas to the tornado omurice and chicken and waffles. Everything was excellent and worth the wait, and the staff were very responsive and helpful.

    Lemon Ricotta Pancakes

    Second time here: - KP Wings are good (actually my favorite are the rice cakes in the dish... crispy style... nice). The wings looked kinda dark, but the soy garlic flavor was good. I prefer wings from other places, but still very good. - Poutine Potatoes: crispy tater tots with bacon, gravy, fried egg, and furakake toppings. Very nice. We got the gravy in the side (dipping them keeps them crispy) - Lemon Ricotta Pancakes: wonderfully crispy edges and light citrus flavor. Excellent if you are in the mood! - Chapaguri: okay, I watched a YouTube video of some expert chef make a dish using two ramen packaged products make a similar dish: mix the Korean chapaghetti with you favorite ramen and add toppings as desired. Well, this is that dish done right! (Tried it myself... not as good as Sunny Side's). Worth a try!

    Unagi tornado omurice
    Emily C.

    As soon as I saw there was an Asian fusion brunch spot I knew I had to try. This place did not disappoints and was pretty packed when I came in mid day on a weekday. The menu was so hard to choose from with many cool options. Asked the server and decided on the unagi tornado omurice and omg first off the colors and presentation was amazing. Unagi is tender, the sauce is super sweet but evens out with the tender fluffy egg and ginger rice. Meal will leave you happy and full.

    Unagi Tornado Omurice
    Elaine Y.

    Came to Sunny Side Breakfast after checking out a small art fair and left very satisfied! We shared the Unagi Tornado Omurice and the Lemon Ricotta Pancakes and it was the perfect amount for two! Starting with the omurice, we really liked the layers of flavor with the sweet and savory rice, creamy egg, and tender sweet eel. The eel portion was also quite generous and there was enough to have some with every bite. As for the pancakes, they had that envious fluffy and chewy texture that you just can't recreate at home. The lemon flavor was also bright and zingy and paired well with the fresh summer fruits on the plate. All in all, great find in midtown. Pair it with the Midtown farmers market and you'll have a perfect Saturday morning in my opinion!

    I walked in on Saturday morning around 10:30am, and luckily there was a table available! The restaurant is bigger in person than it looks online. Servers were very attentive. All the food we ordered was delicious! They were perfect portions for brunch. There is no parking nearby so do plan for that ahead. Note- bottomless mimosas are timed and moderated for one hour.. and they are on that!

    Chicken apple patties
    Anastasia C.

    I totally get the hype now. We went on a Friday afternoon and it was packed, so I was expecting a bit of a wait. The iPad estimated 26 minutes, but we were seated in less than 10. Huge win when you're dining with a kid! The staff was friendly, attentive, and everything felt organized despite how busy it was. I also loved being able to see into the open kitchen. The whole restaurant feels bright, welcoming, and has a fun modern vibe. Our favorite dish was probably the Tornado Unagi. The flavors were amazing and the ginger fried rice was such a unique touch. The Hilo Moco was also delicious with a thick wagyu patty and rich mushroom gravy. My son loved the lemon ricotta pancakes, especially the cute bear face and fresh fruit. And the coconut latte? So good. I'd honestly stop in just for that. We also tried the chicken apple patties and they were way more flavorful than I expected. I'm going to try and make them at home lol We'll definitely be back. One of those places where every dish made us want to come back and try more of the menu.

    Breakfast fusion? Yes please. I ordered the bacon, avocado & tomato benedict and it delivered -- really solid flavors, the kind of breakfast that makes you wish you hadn't made afternoon plans. The latte was great too, which honestly completes the whole experience. Service was friendly and efficient without being rushed, which is exactly the energy you want at a breakfast spot. Would definitely come back next time I'm in Sacramento.

The ribeye is cooked perfectly, green curry has a nice coconut sweetness to it. And the laotian sausage, paired with their sauce and sticky rice hits the spot.

Both packed a good amount of heat at the spicy level, which we loved. The Lao sausage was also super flavorful, but as soon as you cut it, the inside does fall apart a bit. It's a personal preference to have a denser sausage. Service was also ok. We found ourselves needing to call over the waitress a couple times, since we were just sitting waiting to order or get a box and check at the end. Flavors are worth coming back for tho.

Yes, today was our first. I'm a sucker for excellent customer service and Cafe Burma and Mikayla had me at HELLO. LOL NOTE: I DIDN'T DO ANY PRE- REVIEW UPON ARRIVING. The husband wanted a Monday Date night and who am I to say No. What we had: *Planta with Chicken Coconut Dip. This planta is a crossover of naan with Mochi like middle with the prefect crisp served with an amazing Chicken sauce. Yah...will be having this again. Hubby had most of it because I was saving my appetite for what's to come. *TeaLead Salad - Yes its a MUST. The fried seasoned garlic is the secret to why this salad hits the palate in the most perfect way. The dressing is oil based which wasn't over powering or even greasy. The peanut was tastefully done. Yes - I ate most of it. Fresh ingredients in every bite. *Chili Basil Beef - at first glance, it looked like Mongolian Beef but far from the taste. The cumin, ginger and chili flakes gave this dish the wow factor. Mind you, I dislike ginger pieces and didn't come across one piece so they must have used ginger powder which I appreciate. We all know the benefits of ginger and I feel like I got a dose of it without biting into one. *PadThai - we were warned that the Burmese way come with a hint of sweetness and this was definitely true but notoverpowering. Husband enjoyed it, me not so much. The dishes came with extra large prawns. You can tell the prawns we're seasoned first hand before getting tossed into the mix. DRINKS: Husband had the coconut monsoon (rum with coconut flakes and I had Bite Dog HAZY IPA - yum. Prime location - corner of 16th street and J, street parking. Restaurant was clean and with a bar and open kitchen concept. What I would have liked: I wish the aesthetic of the restaurant showcased the culture. Wish the dishes were served in a more traditional serving plates. My eyes eat first so I would have appreciated the extra touch but the TASTE definitely made up for it. Will definitely be back! Need to try a dessert next time. Thanks for having us Chef Burma.
