We really loved the Turkey Club sandwich, and chose to get it with a Caesar, which was also delicious! We did not care for the Pumpkin Goat Cheese appetizer. It came with pita wedges and lacked any citrus or umami to balance the sweetness of the pumpkin and cinnamon. The Walleye sandwich was absolutely delicious, while a little messy to eat and share. I highly recommend that one! The Harvest Salad was nicely chopped and dressed but needed more Beets! We chose it for the beets but they were small little pieces and very few. Overall a great lunch pick when shopping in downtown Nisswa!

The beers were delicious, the beertenders friendly and helpful and the space comfortable.

Being right on the lake, the view is AMAZING. The food is a bit expensive, but definitely fits with the vibe. They have a really nice inside and outside for seating. We had a large group, and they dont take reservations... but only took around 30 mins to get sat. In that time we were able to enjoy the outdoor bar and live music. It seems like a fun time to spend a few hours enjoying a brew or driving your boat up to it too!

First time visit for breakfast based on recommendation from another fantastic local restaurant…read moremanager. The homemade jumbo carmel rolls (to go) were a hit with the kids and were still warm when I got home. The server waited to have to heated up until I was ready to go to ensure they would be warm. It was a great touch. Based on the recommendation did the breakfast burrito. So glad that I did as it was a meal for 2 but filled with eggs, sausage, bacon, cheese, shredded hashbrowns, and maybe some grilled onions. Then topped with queso cheese sauce and the option for spicy or default homemade salsa. I did the spicy salsa on the side for my half and the regular salsa on the side to go for the other half. Definitely a burrito for two. When the bartender found out that this was my first visit she walked me thru the menu and the specials that are available on the weekend (limited quantities smoked ribs and beef brisket) So glad that a trusted voice recommended I give Sunshine's a try. Great food and great staff.

We have recently had both dinner and breakfast here so I feel qualified now to leave some thoughts…read more- first off, that caramel roll is LEGIT and I wish I'd ordered two to take with me! Both times we've been here, we were seated promptly and the service was friendly and attentive. Parking is super easy and you can hear each other speaking here (I have found these two things are getting more and more important to me, which is I guess how you can tell I'm aging ha!). Breakfast choices for our group included the Paul Bunyan Scramble and the breakfast burrito (huge!!) as well as the standard eggs/bacon/toast/hashbrowns - I should have asked for the hashbrowns to be more cooked and I will remember that next time, but that's my own preference. Dinner was just my husband and me, I can't remember what he got but I KNOW I got the smashburger and it was excellent, as were the fries. This place is not on the water which means it's much more reasonably priced than some of the other choices in the area, too, another reason to visit again!

This place was great - super friendly service, reasonable prices, big portions, AND tasty food! Nothing flashy, but everything we tried was good.
