    Partial view of the suite front

    A former furniture store in the BIrd Rock neighborhood of La Jolla has been converted into this new all-day eatery, Sun Gold Point. There was no signage on the marquee which made the business difficult to locate on first pass. The inside had the feel of a modern diner/cafe with booth style seating, small tables, and two separate countertop areas. A couple of tables were also set up on the sidewalk in front of the suite. Parking was all curbside either on La Jolla Blvd or one of the nearby side streets. Three different menu sheets (breakfast, lunch/dinner, kids) were available at the service counter where you ordered and then took a number to a table. I visited on a weeknight when there was just one other party seated. Three columns with four choices in each one made up the lunch/dinner menu. The categories were Sandwiches, Burritos, and Blates (bowl + plate). From the Blates, I chose the OG Lunch. This was house seasoned tri-tip steak served over white rice with hummus, crispy potatoes, avocado, black beans, and a house salad. Everything was prepared in a neat circle around the serving vessel which was a shallow bowl. Between the rice, beans, avocado, and hummus, the item was quite filling. The steak was cooked medium rare, however there was just three pieces included for the price of nearly $21. The service and follow-up from the staff was on point. For the price and quality of my order, I gave a four star rating for my dining experience at Sun Gold Point.

    AMAZING!! the line here was genuinely not long at all on a tuesday. the cappuccino was PERFECT and the burrito was super tasty. i loved the setup and the way you can just sit by the "bar" with your cappuccino, the vibes are great!! 10/10 and will be coming back

    This shop is so wonderful. It has a beautiful and thoughtful design/ decor. They even have a kids play corner! We tried the pastries and vanilla cappuccino. The best vanilla cappuccino I've ever had. It tasted so silky; almost like chocolate. Also had to get a side of bacon for my little guy. It was thick and perfectly crispy. The vibe of this place is so cool! The owners are lovely! We will definitely be making this a regular spot!

    Waiting for our burritos taking in the relaxed atmosphere.

    Had breakfast there Sunday. The breakfast burritos were delicious and served with grilled vegetables and a lite salsa on the side, a healthier choice. The iced latte's were very good, and were vegan with a combo of oat milk and almond milk I think, it was yummy. The service was excellent. Peter, Jessica and Piper were all courteous and warm. . The diner is very relaxed, nice music played in the background but it was not too loud, you could still hear each other talking. They also sell very plushy sweatshirts, nice clothing and hats. The details like their flatware, stoneware dishes, and glasses with the SG logo are noticeably high quality and stylish. Lastly the Porsche photos and surf board add to the vibe of being in a classic Birdrock diner. We will be back for lunch.

    The cinnamon toast latte and apple danish.

    It was my second time here. The lattes have the best tasting balance of coffee & sweet. We ordered the cinnamon toast latte; the apple danish, breakfast burrito, and sauce on the side were absolutely delicious!

    Always the best roast beef I have ever found! Fantastic customer service. Masters of their craft…read moredoing what they love.

    A lot of y'all don't understand New England Roast Beef sandwiches and it shows…read more The good: * OMGosh the sandwiches are unbelievable. The owner makes the meat all from scratch. All you naysayers saying "fillers... premade...", just look to your right when you order - you'll see a fridge full of WHOLE roasts, wrapped and ready to be made. * Owner is regularly working the shop and you can tell he loves what he does. Super friendly and patient to walk you through the menu. * That French dip is a MUST try. Crispy sesame bun outside, cheesy and meaty inside. I'll be dreaming about it. * Biggest surprise - those fries! Best curly fries in SD hands down. It is what it is: * Yes, it's pricey. $20ish a sandwich. But weighing it all out, you get what you pay for. You're going to pay $4 less for a little sub down the street with an EIGHTH of the meat (and that stuff down the street isn't home made). * No inside seating. 4ish tables out front available to sit and eat at. * This is best fresh, for sure. Don't expect a good reheat experience. The bad: * Parking sucks. It PB so it's all paid parking. * Restrooms are not close. Verdict: * Phenomenal premium sandwiches that are worth every penny if you understand New England Roast Beef. He's doing it better than most on the east coast.

    Came here for a quick coffee stop before I met up with the homie…read more Service was good, the guy acknowledged me as soon as I stepped foot inside. The decor was great. I got a matcha drink and it was pretty good not too sweet not to bitter how I like it. They were also packed with all the tourist from AZ, utah, and vegas! Summer time in daygo let's gooo Hope this business stays successful and hopfully don't Drift....away ha!

    Street parking only. Some are metered and some are not. Meters run even on Sundays. Paid parking…read morelot nearby. Very close to the beach so expect to walk a few blocks. They have inside and outside seating. Water dispenser with cups by the register. Check out their specials by the register and on their instagram. Dog friendly. Their large drinks come with 3 shots of espresso (vs 2 in the small) so we went with large. They have alternative milks for an extra 75 cents. Tried: Hawaiian latte $7.25 - good flavor Butterscotch latte $7.25 - friend liked but not my thing. Breakfast sandwich $13.25 - good. A little too much aioli. Came out very hot and fresh. Recommend this one. Baja Burrito $15.75 - added bacon ($2.75 extra). This was a very healthy tasting and massive burrito. Wasn't really a fan of the overall flavor. Salsa was good. Club $17 - most expensive item. A little too much aioli on this but overall was good and it came with a cute little fruit cup. I love that they open very early in the morning and just one block from the beach! I'll be back to try their other food and drinks.
