The chicken waffle with berries is the telling dish. The batter is restrained, doesn't oversell itself with sweetness, the waffle has structure instead of dissolving into custard. The berries stay whole and tart instead of melting into jam. That restraint is what separates precision from indulgence. The avocado toast comes with radish shaved thin and microgreens that aren't buried, just placed. The plating is considered, not theatrical. Big difference. The benedicts work. Hollandaise holds the emulsion, the eggs are cooked to the yolk, the proteins don't bleed. The pancakes (key lime, pistachio, Belgium ganache) are where they let personality show, but the base is always solid. The plain croissant is $5 and tastes like they're not cutting corners. They close at 3:30 PM. That constraint is actually their strength. You eat when the kitchen is fresh, not fighting fatigue at lunch hour. Everything lands at the same level of finish because they're not spread thin across 12 hours. The mosaic tables make every meal feel unhurried. The outdoor section has real breeze and light. The price feels honest, $24-32 depending on what you add. This is breakfast and brunch executed like someone actually cares how it tastes and where you sit. read more

Not a bad cafe located in Miami, Beach! The first thing you notice when you walk in is that there is a scent of stale incense. A bit musty but not bad. We ordered two coffees; Dulce de leche iced latte with included cold foam and a pistachio iced latte (Dulce de leche was better!) For food we both got a breakfast sandwich with no bacon(cross-contamination for gluten) and the gluten free bread. I am celiac (gluten free)This was very tasty and would have again! The service was normal, casual, and well. Nothing out of this world but still kind and respectful. I would 100% eat here again but I would love to see lower prices for everything. It all seems so much but it's a given being in Miami where everything is expensive. Parking is also next to the cafe and it's 20$ an hour or 20.40$ online which is a bit too much read more

Came to Sunny Side for breakfast. The espresso Martini tasted good and had great presentation. The Bellini did not taste like peach. The key lime pancake was OK but looked beautiful. We also had an omelette that was delicious. Our waiter was charming and attentive. Warning that tip is already added to bill and we were not told read more

My barber put me onto Sunnyside Café, and I'm thankful he did! After a fresh cut, I decided to walk over and grab breakfast. 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! read more

This place was so accommodating when it came to finding us a table for 6 people in their outdoor patio. I am very grateful for that. I could see they would move the tables were others as well. We didn't have to wait to long for brunch on Saturday. The food and drinks were pretty too! The inside looked so cute but I appreciated the outdoors as well since the weather was just right. All the employees were attentive and would check in as well :) whenever I'm back in Miami or south beach area, I'll have to come back! It's also pretty close to the beach! read more

Super cute restaurant in South Beach. We came here for breakfast and dined inside. The decor is very chic and the staff are really friendly. We ordered the Truffle Omelette and Smoked Salmon Toast.

This spot was nice. A bit pricey but the service was great and the food was good and well presented. It was floral and bright inside and well kept. I had the eggs Benedict with pork and a side of potatoes. I also had a side of apple wood smoked bacon. The potatoes were cooked to perfection and the eggs Benedict sauce was really good. The pork pulled pork complimented it all. Soft and flavorful. The apple wood smoked bacon was crispy and delicious. I had a mimosa with it all in which was also a nice start to my day. Over all I would come back here when in Miami and tey another dish. I think it was worth it. read more

Came here for breakfast on a Saturday morning. the whole vibe is chic boho and Instagram worthy. Everyone one's food that was coming out looked picture perfect. I got the carbonara omelette with a side of diced potatoes and the egg was incredibly fluffy, while the potatoes were the perfect mix of soft and crispy. I also tried my man's Carnitas Benedict, which had spicy mayo and pickled onions that added a really nice kick. We had mimosas too, from the pulp, I think maybe they use real orange juice, but the color was a bit neon which threw me off a little. It is on the pricey side (like a lot of Miami spots), but considering how pretty and tasty the food was, I'd say it's definitely worth a post. read more

We found a new breakfast and brunch place on Monday that we are crazy about! It is in South Beach off the main path at 4th and Jefferson. The location makes it easy to get to, and there is available parking at Sunnyside as well as on the street. The vibe at Sunnyside has good energy, and immediately, we were feeling good! We requested seating outdoors and were able to pick a spot that we liked with lots of greenery! The white outdoor tables and chairs added to the charm of the place! Our server was Monica with the beautiful smile! She represented the ambiance of Sunnyside. My daughter ordered the eggs Benedict with breakfast potatoes and a Mocha Cappuccino. I ordered the Avocado Toast with smoked salmon and a Mocha Cappuccino. Both orders were perfectly cooked and delicious! We noticed another couple had ordered the French Cinnamon Roll and were raving about it. We decided to order it also and split it. Great decision! Monica did the presentation of pouring the hot creamy icing over the cinnamon roll for us. Simply amazing!! Thank you, Monica! Our visit was so much fun and so relaxing! The food was excellent and so was the service! We will definitely be returning soon. read more

The food here is excellent! It's consistently fresh, well-prepared, and clearly made with care. Highly recommended for anyone who lives in or is visiting Miami Beach. What really stands out is the staff: extremely friendly, attentive, and consistent even during peak times. I've seen the owner here on multiple occasions, and instead of standing on the sidelines, she's actively involved....taking orders, greeting customers, and making sure everything runs smoothly. That kind of hands-on leadership is rare these days, and it shows in how well the restaurant functions. There's a real sense of pride and professionalism throughout the place. I don't usually grade restaurants on price, but I will say the prices are very reasonable for Miami, especially given the quality and experience. One final detail that matters to me: the bathrooms are spotless. That's always a telling sign of a restaurant's overall standards and attention to cleanliness. Overall, a well-run spot with great food, great people, and thoughtful ownership. read more

Presentation across the board was really well done and beautiful. I enjoyed the açaí bowl but wish they blended the peanut butter instead of adding dollops. I don't think anyone wants to eat gobs of peanut butter. My partner enjoyed the eggs Benedict, but thought the focaccia it was on was too hard, and the potatoes and egg were the main highlights of this dish. Key lime pancakes just tasted sweet. Not much of a key lime flavor, and the pancakes came out crumbly- not fluffy. Wouldn't order this again. Overall, it's good for a cute brunch and a bowl of açaí. read more

After finishing the Halloween freaky 4 miler we needed a place to eat. This wasn't too far and had some pretty good reviews on yelp. We started with a Bellinis. I don't know if the juice was old or the champagne was old but these were probably the worst Bellinis I've ever had. My boyfriend had a cappuccino and my son had a cortadito. Which I'm seeing now they charged us for a macchiato. They both enjoyed their drink drinks. To eat I had a prosciutto Crudo eggs Benedict, which was delicious My daughter-in-law had a breakfast sandwich which she enjoyed My son had a Florentine eggs Benedict, which he enjoyed My boyfriend had a ham and cheese omelette, which he enjoyed And he also got a dulce de leche pancakes, which were delicious and packed with yummy fresh food. Despite the horrible Bellinis, the food was really good. so on that note, I would recommend this place. It is a little pricey. We paid 156 for four people and gratuity was included. read more

Sunny Side Cafe & Eatery - Eggs Benedict with smoked salmon. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Miami Beach, Florida

I'd seen a couple of friends check in here for brunch, so I decided to look up this hidden away spot. Hidden here is defined as not on Collins, Ocean or Washington..almost like a speakeasy. Sunnyside is on Jefferson and surprisingly for SOBE, has its own parking lot. I snagged a hightop in front of their grass wall for a quick brunch as I continued my day. Like a lot of places, it has an 18% automatic gratuity. Their menu consists of creative spin on the brunch staples. I enjoyed their Prosciutto Benedict. Instead of the regular Canadian bacon, this one had a lightly salty prosciutto, which blended nicely with the pesto on fluffy focaccia. The hollandaise was appropriately runny & eggs fluffy. Mixed with the hollandaise, the potatoes were actually tasty. For dessert, I enjoyed their fruit and mojito waffle. You don't really taste the rum, as it's more like a reduction with the flambeed bananas & fresh berries. The waffle was sizeable, and like my main course, decorated with a flower. It may be that the americano coffee I ordered was strong, but I could barely taste aby bubbly on mimosa. Something to note, maybe no coffee next time! read more

Wow! There does not get a better breakfast. The location is tiny so it's a bit overwhelming should you go at a busy time. Very old school coffee shop vibe. The food and menu make up for the size of the restaurant. Do yourself a favor and get a pastry as well. 100% a location I will be back at. Top notch breakfast and coffee shop. read more

Beautiful breakfast plates here! The food is scrumptious as well. Stopped by here for a quick brunch before our flights. Quaint little cafe in a quiet neighborhood in South beach, less than 15mins walk from Ocean Blvd. Servers are friendly.

Visited Sunny Side Cafe based on other Yelp reviews and although it wasn't bad it's not somewhere I would frequent for full meals or a Bloody Mary, the service was great and perhaps they would be a good place to visit for coffee and croissants but if you are looking for a nice sit down brunch this would not be my first choice, as seating is very limited. The food we did have was as good and well made just wasn't knock your socks good as for the Bloody Mary I wouldn't bother definitely not their forté, stick to the coffee and perhaps juices! All in all would visit them again based on the service we received and would likely try the croissants, pancakes or French toast as this may be their niche. read more

This is the perfect spot for breakfast or lunch if you are in South Beach. They have a big parking lot and outside seating. The inside is a little smaller but most likely you would like to seat outside anyway. The decoration is pretty and gives a nice vibe. The food was great and I was really happy about the dish presentation, you can tell they put some thought on plating. They include beautiful edible flowers that make the difference. My favorites were the waffles and pancakes, both included fresh fruit and maple syrup. The matcha latte was also delicious. My friends also loved the eggs benedict and chicken waffles. Service was OK and they made sure to make it clear that the tip is already included. I would love to go back and try more dishes! read more

Sunny Side Cafe & Eatery - Key Lime Pancake Any Style Eggs Cheese Cake French Toast Hash Browns. ALL were delicious - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Miami Beach, Florida

Trendy spot for a casual weekend brunch after a night out. Easy to drive up, located adjacent to a parking lot. Outdoor seating available, hopefully you can grab a spot with an umbrella or in some kind of shade to get out of the heat. Service is welcoming and quick. We were seated right in front of the social media wall with artificial greenery and neon script light. Wanted to keep our meal light so we started with a coffee and green juice - both solid pick-me-ups while nursing a self-imposed lack of sleep. Our brunch entrees were a cheese omelet, served with toast, and the Florentine eggs benedict. The omelet was a very well-executed light and delicate french omelet. The poached eggs, hollandaise and avocado were a great combination. We were in an out in less than 70 minutes and ready to hit the beach with a new outlook on the day. read more

Location & Atmosphere Sunny Side Café & Eatery is a simple, laid-back spot in Miami Beach, great for a casual breakfast or brunch. The atmosphere is relaxed, making it an easy choice if you're looking for something unfussy. Food & Drinks I had the breakfast sandwich, which was pretty good. The croissant had the right amount of flakiness, and the toppings--hashbrowns, avocado, and egg--were plentiful. However, the flavors were a bit plain, so adding some ketchup helped enhance it. My friend ordered the Nutella pancake, which looked absolutely beautiful and delicious. On the other hand, the bacon was overcooked and super crispy, which wasn't ideal. ‍ Service & Hospitality Service was adequate but could have been more attentive. It took a while for the staff to get around, and there were some small misses, like forgetting condiments. Even getting the bill was a bit of a wait. That said, the staff was friendly, which made the experience more pleasant. Unique Selling Point A simple café with solid breakfast options and an especially great presentation on the Nutella pancake. While the service could be more efficient, it's still a nice, low-key spot for a quick meal in Miami Beach. read more

I have spoken to multiple people about how unfortunately most of our dining experiences throughout our stay were less than stellar, until we popped in for a quick breakfast as we were leaving town. WOW WOW! Best "quick stop" ever. I definitely went glutton mode and had the cheese cake French toast, and it was one of the top 3 breakfasts I've ever had. My wife was obsessed with her chicken and waffles. Also, I took pics of our plates. I don't do that, ever! It was almost too pretty to eat. The service was right on, and the atmosphere was so comfortable and chill. Lastly, the coffee was A+. I left Miami from there, and I left a very happy man thanks to our "quick stop" at Sunny Side cafe. 5 10 out of 10 A+ read more

I've been here twice-- two years apart-- and both times have been great. I got the Key Like pancakes, which were super delicious (though I wish there was more sauce for the lower stacks).
