No complaints at all with the food. Located in Sun Valley location beside the Publix so plenty of parking spots to choose from.

We were helped by the owners themselves, and they always had a smile, repeated our order back to us, got our order quickly, and checked on us if things were OK. The common areas and restroom were clean and comfortable, and the y did a terrific job with the looks of it. It has its own free parking lot but with limited spots.

I didn't try any of the food this time around but my friend and I ordered their chocolate strawberry iced lattes and they were delicious!

My husband and I first visited Easy Like Sunday about two years ago and immediately fell in love…read morewith this little restaurant. It's small, intimate, stylish and inviting. It's the kind of place that feels notably special, distinguished and high end without ever feeling stuffy. Everyone is warm and professional, and the food is absolutely worth every penny. During our first visit, I took a chance and ordered the grits. I normally avoid restaurant grits because they're almost always bland, flavorless and gelatinous. But the grits at Easy Like Sunday were completely different in the best way. Creamy with the slightest grainy texture and so perfectly seasoned that you don't need to add butter, salt, pepper or anything else. I had been daydreaming about those grits for two years. We finally made it back this past Friday and arrived when the doors opened at 9:00am. We were seated immediately. I ordered the Little Bit of Everything with eggs, bacon, those unforgettable grits and a thick, fluffy, delicious buttermilk pancake. That first spoonful of grits tasted exactly the way I remembered, maybe even better. My eyes actually welled up with tears. I know that sounds extreme but I'm not exaggerating. After waiting two years to taste them again, they felt familiar and comforting, like coming home. Our waitress, Diana, made the morning even more special. She was warm, welcoming and accommodating. When I told her I could nearly cry over those grits, she didn't make me feel silly or dramatic. She agreed saying,"Oh, I know! We have the best grits!" She said she completely understood why that first bite made me feel emotional. Being served by Diana felt like being taken care of by an old friend. We had never met her before, yet she treated us as though she had known us for years. Easy Like Sunday is a hidden little treasure tucked away across the street from Park Road Shopping Center. It's the kind of place you take someone special for a first date, an anniversary, a milestone, a birthday or simply a morning you want to remember. The atmosphere is cozy and polished, the food is wonderful, and Diana is an absolute gem. We cannot wait to return!

Our server was great, but unfortunately, the food was below average and didn't quite live up to the…read moreexpectations. Ube has such a naturally rich, nutty, and creamy flavor that I expected the pancake to have plenty of that character. Instead, it was dry, lacked moisture and flavor, and honestly tasted more like a regular pancake with ube coloring than an actual ube pancake. We also ordered the French toast and a cup of coffee, and the total came out to around $47. I'm glad we gave it a try, but overall, the meal was pretty underwhelming. The service was the highlight, but the food was just so-so.

Yes their chicken tenders were good enough to want to take home. Hope to visit again soon.

I've also stopped by for dinner a few times, and let me tell you, these folks don't miss. The food? Always fresh and delicious. The service? Fast, professional, and somehow still warm and personable. They've really built a fantastic team here, and at this point, I'm pretty sure I qualify for honorary family membership. Someone get me a name tag that says "MSB Cousin." If you're ever there for Brunch when the "Big Stack" is on the menu, please try it. You're going to love it, and the many other brunch and dinner items on the menu.

We were greeted quickly by a friendly server who got us drinks right away. We weren't ready to order and he did not rush us. He asked us to move our table number to the front of the table so he would know we were ready. I liked that touch! We went very traditional for breakfast. I opted for the French toast combo with bacon and hash browns. My friend opted for the spinach and feta omelet. Both arrived quickly and were fresh and hot. My food was tasty, the bacon was crispy as ordered and the hash browns were nicely shredded and not too greasy. The only thing that was a bit off was my friend asked for her omelet to be well done and she had to send it back for a recook. There was no problem with that and it was back quickly and definitely cooked much more to her liking. Overall I liked the place for a no frills but well cooked meal. The server was pleasant and we never had to ask for refills. Definitely recommend if you are in the area and looking for a nice, affordable meal.
