Everything was yummy. Not a huge fan of the home fries due to the texture but they were still okay.

So, I rarely give out 5 star reviews unless the place really wows me. This is one of them. The service was amazing, food was fabulous, and not too packed like most spots like it.

Meaning; the pickles aren't too dried up to fry, they have a small bit of juice. A def good place for breakfast and lunch 100%

Wife got a gift card for Sunnyside Diner/Fireside Brick Oven. After church services we stopped at Sunnyside Diner on the way home.

They were so sweet to us today! We had a late night, and our our 1-year-old was exhausted this morning. Without missing a beat, the waitress brought her some fruit, played peekaboo with her, and gave us a milk to go! 🙂 they're always so kind and welcoming here. Sunnyside has definitely become our go-to breakfast spot!
