Really enjoyed our brunch at Sunday! It has that charming, boutique, family-owned feel that makes the experience a little more special. The food was fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. The omelets were fluffy and delicious with perfectly crispy tots, and the waffle was definitely a standout, loaded with fresh fruit, coconut, ice cream, and delicious ube. Generous portions, great flavors, and a welcoming atmosphere. Sunday is exactly the kind of locally owned neighborhood restaurant we should all support. We'll definitely be back! read more

Matcha French Toast Combo - 4/5, pretty good matcha topping and white chocolate drizzle. Comes with 3 toasts and some bananas. Bulgogi Omelette - 3/5, bulgogi had some flavor but I think it could be better. The tater tots were definitely the best thing there! I was sad to see that the tater tots themself weren't on the menu anymore Didn't try the chicken and waffles or the fried chicken, but next time! read more

It's a really nice brunch spot in a cool neighborhood. The yuza tea was pretty good, and it stayed hot the entire time. The spicy loco moco is good, the sauce actually quite spicy. The bulgolgi was a bit on the sweet side, but it's interesting seeing these fusion flavors coming together. However nothing stood out enough to fully warrant the high prices. Service was good, the staff were friendly, and good as served very fast. Though it felt like we were waiting a little long to get our orders in. The signs in the restroom were hilarious. The wait was about 10 minutes, faster than the forecast. read more

Quaint little spot in Oakland downtown. You arrive and add yourself to the wait list via tablet near the hostess/cashier area. We were seated fairly quickly for a Saturday at 11am. The place is small and has tables inside and some more like a patio area overlooking the street. Street parking is available but can be tricky. The staff was always greeting everyone and nice. They have a QR code menu and delicious breakfast items from eggs to french toast to bacon. Coffee was good and my french toast even better. Portions were hefty and we left happy and stuffed with a great start to our day. I loved the hot sauce section that had many options. I am all about the hot sauce. Check it out. read more

Spicy Loco Moco is my go to meal at The Sunday. I suggest going with someone and sharing two meals so that you can taste more. The Bulgogi Benedict and Chicken&Waffles are a popular choice at our table. I love the Garlic Soy Wings to share (or for yourself, don't know if you can get a side or waffle, because that would be BOMB!) This is our go to breakfast spot when we want to go out. One thing that I wish they had is a light beer. Some Terra or OB would be so nice for brunch (I could get down with some Someak). read more

This place is Amazing!!! I happened to come across on Yelp on our way up to SF from long roadtrip. We were not disappointed. The food was delicious and very unique (not just because we were hungry)The best part has to be the staff and how attentive everyone was and not just to us but everyone, very friendly and they seem to really enjoy working here. Its clean and very chill environment, will definitely be stopping by here next time we are in town. read more

The Sunday is an Emeryville gem for Korean-American fusion brunch! We loved the Bulgogi Benedict, Truffle Omelette, and Loco Moco--each dish was flavorful, unique, and beautifully presented. The mimosas, teas, and soju flight were the perfect addition to brunch. The atmosphere was welcoming, the service was friendly, and there are plenty of sweet and savory options to choose from. Definitely a spot I'll be coming back to! read more

Girlfriends decided to brunch and we did it at The Sunday on a Friday at 11a. With separate dietary needs, we were each able to find something on the menu to satisfy our palettes. The Sunday was busy and packed, we were first on the waiting list. The first available table for us was inside. Tables are spacious, made of wood, identical to the bench seating. The service was friendly, patient, attentive and thorough - reciting each order back to us to ensure accuracy. We were even asked if we had food allergies they should be aware of - incredibly thoughtful. Our coffee ($4) and hibiscus tea were refilled without ask, the wait for food was minimal. I ordered the lemon ricotta pancakes ($15) with a side of eggs. Classic 2 Eggs ($18) comes with two eggs your way, English muffin or sour dough toast with home fries, rice or tater tots. We each really enjoyed our meals and conversation. Would we return, most certainly. Parking can be a pain depending on the time. It is street parking on a fairly frequented street. The entrance is directly off the street and the eatery can be easily missed. read more

The Sunday in Emeryville has quickly become one of my favorite brunch spots in the East Bay. It's a contemporary Korean-American brunch spot that puts a creative spin on all the classics, and everything comes out looking almost too pretty to eat -- the plating is so aesthetic, especially the heart-shaped plates. Everything we had was phenomenal, but my favorites were the loco moco and the french toast. The loco moco was hearty and packed with flavor, and the french toast was perfectly fluffy. Don't skip the drinks either -- the mimosas were great, and they even have a soju flight, which was such a fun touch for brunch. The vibe is relaxed and welcoming, making it perfect for a family brunch, date brunch, or a weekend catch-up with friends. It was pretty packed when we went on a weekend, so I'd recommend going early or being prepared for a short wait -- but honestly, that's how you know it's worth it. read more

Cute little cafe. Went on a Thursday morning and got a seat easily. Food was yummy! We had a spicy loco mocco and the truffle omelette. Both were delicious! Tried some of the hot sauces on the rack and were pleasantly surprised by the kick. Will definitely be back. read more

The Sunday is an absolute must-visit brunch spot in Emeryville that serves up some of the best breakfast comfort food around. We enjoyed every single dish we had! (YES, we were so hungry, lol) Their omelette is to absolute soft, fluffy perfection and packed with fresh flavors (love the bulgogi and truffle!), while the french toast features thick, golden-brown slices that are delightfully crisp on the outside and wonderfully soft on the inside. The true star of the show, however, is the chicken and croffle, which pairs incredibly juicy, ultra-crispy fried chicken with a light, airy waffle for the ultimate sweet and savory balance. Combining fantastic food with a warm, lively atmosphere and fast, friendly service, it delivers a top-tier dining experience that will definitely have you coming back next trip! read more

Yum, is the first thing that comes to mind. Second, we will be back. I'm giving it a 4.25 stars because we got a little irritated with one of the servers. We had waited about 20-30 mins for a table of 2. We went back inside and there were some tables inside that were wrapping up their meal, but we were called and were given a table outside. My husband asked if we could wait for a table inside and the server said the wait would've been too long. Mind you it was raining, even if there is a covered awning, it was rather cold. About 2 mins later, after we were sat at our table, another group who was not waiting as long as we had, was told they'd be seated inside, just to give them a minute to clean the table. My husband wasn't happy. It is what it is, the place is small and they were just trying to do their best to accommodate the waitlist. Aside from that, service was great. Very nice servers. Food was quick to come to the table and it was piping hot. From where my husband was sitting he could see the owner (he verified it from a server) working hard in the kitchen! Food is worth the price. I wouldn't say it's outrageous pricing, as it's what you would find at other similar restaurants. If you compare this restaurant to Kitchen Story, I believe it out ranks. I had the spicy chicken Benedict, and the only complaint I have is there were too many green onions. That was my fault because I should have asked for it without. I love that you could get breakfast potatoes or tater tots. I obviously got the tater tots, which I did not regret! So crisp and delish! I also ordered the croffle! Never let anyone tell you ice cream isn't for breakfast because this place proves them wrong. Ugh, delish! I didn't eat any of the fruit but my husband said it was really fresh. My husband ordered the Sunday Scrambler and finished the entire plate before I had even finished half of my plate. Pretty sure he liked it, lol. Their coffee was perfect and super hot! The way it should be served. I saw a bunch of different drinks being served, which I look forward to trying over time. Bathroom, clean and didn't smell bad. I highly suggest this place if you're in the area. read more

Wow wow wow I think we found our spot. The Sunday is a small, stylish Korean fusion brunch spot with a heavy emphasis on flavor. The home fries are extremely delicious and that's all you really need to know. I got the Sunday omelette which was unique and delicious, packed full of shrimp and veggies. My wife got the friend chicken benedict. The chicken was exceptionally seasoned and was juicy through and through. We shared the lemon ricotta pancakes which were light and flavor full. Service was very friendly and helpful. Apparently we got lucky with a relatively slow Sunday brunch rush and got seated right away. Otherwise they have an in-person wait-list. Looking forward to coming back and trying more of the menu! read more

Came in for Sunday Brunch. I immediately started with the earl gray tea. I liked how the tea came with an infused lemon but it added too much sweetness for me as I like my tea with no sweetener. I ordered The Sunday Omelette Special and it was so good that I went home and took a nap. It put me in a coma. The truffle flavor didn't overpower the dish and all the veggies and protein were seasoned just right. My bf ordered the bulgolgi Benedict. The beef was tender and paired well with the Chipotle sauce. Service was nice. Since the place is kind of small, you can hear everyone's conversations, which makes it hard to talk with the person in front of you. We'll be back, but will note that it will make us pass out. read more

We had a really nice brunch in Emeryville at The Sunday. It was a bit unexpected because the original place we looked up was closed, but it was perfection and we highly recommend it. We got there at opening so we were sat right away, but later on there was a bit of wait for new guests. The indoors is small, but super cozy, clean and cute. And all of the service was great. I even got a topped off coffee cup to go after we were done. The food was Asian Fusion style and did not disappoint one bit! Every plate looked amazing and was delicious. We had chicken and waffles, chicken and croffles (a waffled croissant) - which was one of my favorite options, a spicy loco moco which was flavorful, spicy, and delicious, French toast, bulgogi Benedict which was another favorite, and a build your own omelette. Our crew has some picky eaters and when I say everything was gone...I mean we literally returned empty plates. It was that good! So brunch it up at The Sunday! read more

I was visiting from out of town and someone recommended this brunch spot, so my boyfriend and I decided to try it, and we are really glad we did. The atmosphere was lively and welcoming, and the service kept up well with the brunch crowd. I ordered the fried French toast combo with turkey bacon and scrambled eggs. The scrambled eggs were not my favorite part of the plate, but the fried French toast was incredible. It was perfectly crisp on the outside, soft inside, and full of flavor. It easily made the dish worth ordering. The turkey bacon was cooked nicely as well. My boyfriend ordered the chicken and waffles and could not stop talking about how good it was. The chicken was crispy and well seasoned, and the waffle paired with it perfectly. Overall, the portions were great, the energy was good, and it is a brunch spot I would absolutely recommend. We will definitely be coming back next time we are in town. read more

Tasty joint in the middle of a block of apartments. Fried chicken and loco moco were top, slightly salty on the gravy. Lemon ricotta pancakes were ok. Needed a lil dollop of whipped cream. Presentation was beautiful. Waitress gave suggestions. 4% surcharge for using credit card. Small place, only about 3 tables inside and 3-4 outside seating. read more

Been here twice for brunch. The loco moco is a great savory dish-ample gravy to rice/patty ratio. The little extras like the thin cuts of spam and furikake add nice texture touches as well. The croffle dough was delicious with its buttery notes. The chicken was perfectly fried as well. The custard like sauce was lightly sweet. Accompanying fruit was a bit minimal. The lemon ricotta pancakes were a bit lacking-would pass on these next time. Overall, the food is pretty solid-but portions are on the smaller side so you'll be content (probably no leftovers though). Seating area is pretty small-only a few small tables inside and 5 small tables outside in their patio. They do charge 4% extra for credit card as a FYI. read more

Great brunch food! The Korean fusion/spin along with brunch favorites was a hit with us. We aere also pleasantly surprised to enjoy a Jeju island orange soda, too. I got the chicken and waffle, a side of bacon and orange juice. We also had the bulgogi Benedict. All the food was tasty and delicious. The service was very attentive also. The staff made sure we had all of our needs taken care of. It's a small brunch restaurant, I'd say they can seat about 20-30 patrons at any given time. We'll be back! read more

Stopped by The Sunday for a quick, last minute brunch and it was a pretty good meal. Luckily the restaurant wasn't super crowded and we were able to get seated right away. The restaurant is located on a quiet street, and it's quite cozy, with some seating indoors and outdoors. I will say the restaurant is small and seating can feel a bit cramped/tight, especially the 2 person tables. This was my 2nd time visiting and customer service was friendly and adequate. We had to flag down servers for extra napkins and etc., but they were prompt. Once you sit down, a server will provide a QR code that you can scan to view the menu. They will then stop by to ask if you want to order any drinks and take your actual order. My mom opted for the veggie eggs benedict with home fries. I ordered the chicken with croffle dish. Both dishes came out fairly quickly and I thought the presentation of the chicken & croffle dish was nice. The croffle was a good balance of crispy and soft, and they included both a maple syrup & spicy maple syrup on the side. The chicken was pretty tasty, it had some sort of breaded seasoning and seemed to be a good pairing with the croffle. I enjoyed my dish and nearly cleaned my plate, which was great. The veggie eggs benedict was good too, but my mom said it lacked salt and was thinking some avocado would've helped elevate the dish. We flagged down a server to request salt & pepper, & that helped. The home fries were tasty and crispy, and had a slight spicy kick. But I think ordering the tater tots would've been better. The cost for both dishes was just under $50, so I thought the pricing was a little high, but it was a filling meal with good size portions. Possibly worth visiting if you're in the nearby area and craving a cozy, flavorful brunch experience. read more

We came here for brunch on a Saturday afternoon. We had a 25 minute wait to be seated. As a party of 5 each of us tried a different dish. Everyone was content with what they ate and enjoyed their meal. The restaurant is a small space with indoor and outdoor seating. Inside there is room for about 12-15 people to sit at one time. Outside is about the same. The service was prompt and attentive, our server made recommendations regarding the menu! There were a lot of people coming and going on the day we were there. It was our first time eating here, but I would come again if I were in the area! read more

Food was ok but not really worth the wait. Ordered bulgogi omelette and bulgogi benedict and both were kind of mediocre

===TL;DR=== - Kimchi bulgogi tots - Omelette - Fried chicken and croffle ===TMI=== Asian fusion spot with unique flavors (mainly sweet for me). Come here early because there's always a wait! Cozy small spot greeted by a wall of hot sauces (go try them all!). Love love love the tater tots, can't go wrong with that. I think the omelette was standard. I realized the more I ate, the sweetness of every dish started stacking... from the bulgogi sauce to the sauce from the omelette and the sauces from the fried chicken dish - too sweet for me. Otherwise, great proportion, amazing fried chicken! Great place for dates and catch ups! read more

Was looking for a new (to me) brunch place in the Bay Area to go to with my friend and this place caught my eye with their Korean fusion offerings. It did not disappoint! Since I read reviews, I knew to join the waitlist prior to getting there. Once we found street parking, we only waited 5-10mins once we arrived. Highly recommend joining the waitlist because the place is small and seating is limited. Just google "the sunday waitlist" The wait was around 1 hour once we got our food. We ordered the bulgogi omelette, shrimp tempura omelette, and croffle. You can choose a side of house fries, tater tots, or rice and sourdough or english muffin. The tater tots were cooked to perfection. The omelettes were very delicious. And the croffle was a perfect balance of sweet and salty (they put an interesting brown shredded cheese topping). The service was great! Waiter was friendly and when they brought out our food they informed us of everything that was on the plate. The plates and presentation of food was beautiful as well. Overall a great place for brunch on a Sunday ;) read more

Such a cute brunch spot! The service was outstanding, our server was so friendly and welcoming, and we even had the chance to meet the owner and his wife, who are such a wonderful couple. The food was incredible! The waffle had great flavor and was cooked perfectly. The Benedict was a standout, that hollandaise with a Korean twist was absolute perfection. The house potatoes were crisp and delicious, the perfect side. Overall, our experience here was amazing, and we can't wait to come back and try more of the menu.

We came here on a Sunday for brunch. Pro tip: put your name on the waitlist while you are on your way since mornings can get pretty busy. They have both outdoor and indoor seating. We added our names to the waitlist ahead of time and by the time we arrived and found parking, our wait was only about 15 minutes. We had already decided on our order and went with the Loco Moco and the Bulgogi Benedict. The food came out quickly and I loved that they have such a big hot sauce selection. The loco moco had a generous amount of gravy, though the patty felt a little small compared to the amount of rice. The bulgogi was flavorful and the eggs were cooked perfectly. Service was friendly and the staff gave us great recommendations. Parking was decent with street options available.

Came here on a Friday morning and there was a crowd but we did not have to wait for seating. I will have to say this is not a very kid friendly place since they do not have high chairs for littler ones. They did have a booster seat but that wouldn't help much with a baby that needs extra support. There were two families with babies including ourselves and the other parent had to sit with his baby on his lap while eating. If you're a parent you know the struggle of trying to enjoy a meal with a baby in your lap. I kind of understand the no high chairs since the indoor area is really small but also if you can fit a chair you can fit a high chair. Even just one or two would make a difference. Really not a family friendly choice but maybe their main demographic isn't families. Service was good, our waiter was friendly and prompt and the manager checked in on our table. We got our food fairly quickly which was appreciated since our baby was getting really fussy. I ordered the regular loco moco and my partner ordered the lemon ricotta pancakes. The loco moco was flavorful and I liked the gravy. The eggs were cooked nicely but I wish the spam was crispier or maybe a more consistent texture since some were floppy and some were crispy. I also think the meat patty should be bigger given the amount of rice that is given. The lemon ricotta pancakes were just okay imo. What I really didn't like was that the fruit was not fresh at all. It looked like it had been cut wayyyyyy in advance and was mushy and looked unappetizing. Overall this place is fine and good for adults with no kids. I don't think I'd wait in line for this spot but it's fine if you're hungry and there is no wait. read more

Atrocious, not sure why this place it heavily recommended. Still I would give it 1.5 stars. Came her with the bf for breakfast on my birthday. I wasn't too sure about the place, but it was highly recommended by the bf's co-worker so we gave it a shot. It was a rainier day prior to us getting there so we hoped to sit inside. We initially got seated outside because we didn't want to wait for a table inside. The waiter was really nice and let us know when a table inside was available and we were able to move inside. Which was good because though they have a covering it didn't really cover the entire seating area and the bench was wet. Once inside you realize how tiny this place is. If there's a larger party than 4 it's essentially game over for other parties because I think the inside probably has 20 seats maybe??? The bf got the stuffed french toast and I got the chicken and waffles. The bf got their coffee and got the orange juice. Shame on me for thinking it was gong to be fresh squeezed, I literally saw them pour it from a grocery store bottle. The juice was $5. The food came out fast which was nice. The waffle was basic and a bit bland to be honest. The chicken was good. All lacked seasoning. Though the dried orange slice was cute. The bf hated his stuffed french toast. We thought the filling was going to be like mascarpone but it tasked like whipped butter?? The bread itself was not soaked enough to be french toast and the coating was panko? It was overall really weird and like a child made it. Really overpriced for what you get, a lot of other great breakfast places in the area. I think the hype stems from their sauce shelf? Given the waiter and only person working the front was super nice. He tried to defend the stuffed french toast but dude it's better to just leave well enough alone. Paid street parking. read more

I was in the Berkeley area looking for an Asian-fusion brunch spot. My go-to is usually Berkeley Social Club, but their wait time was too long. I must've gotten lucky with The Sunday because I was seated within 3 minutes of showing up on a Saturday at noon! Their service is hyper-efficient and we got our food within 10 minutes of ordering. Presentation was also beautiful! I had their chicken & croffle and stuffed french toast and it was so so delicious! The chicken and croffle came with a spicy maple syrup that was the perfect combo of sweet, savory, and spicy! The stuffed french toast was the star of show; it was deep fried, making it crunchy, and stuffed with sweet mascarpone. These two dishes left an impact on me and I am already planning to come back... read more

Stopped by on a weekday afternoon at 2pm. I didn't realize they closed up at 2:30 till I checked Yelp when figuring out what to order, but I wasn't rushed at all. The waiter was enthusiastic and polite the entire time. It was empty to I got to choose where to sit. The plastic cover on the outside seating was a little weird, but eh it was a nice day to sit outside. The whole menu looked amazing, but I played it safe and got the eggs Benedict. The hollandaise sauce wasn't particularly spicy so I'd ask about how spicy the food actually is. But otherwise egg was perfectly poached and I liked how there's was a selection of different options you could pair it with. I opted for turkey bacon and it was a nice touch. It's hard to screw up eggs Benedict, but I enjoy the textural experience of their version: the English muffin was crispy, the micro greens were light, the egg and turkey bacon soft...it made each bite exciting. The potatoes, although simple, were perfectly salted and wonderfully crispy. I wish they had one of these in SoCal! Looking forward to coming back. read more
