    Chesapeake Crab Biscuit and Sunny Side Fruit Tea
    Kea A.

    The food is always fresh, flavorful, and made with care. I tried their signature crab cheddar bay biscuits and they were cheesy, creamy, and packed with that Chesapeake flavor you can only find in Baltimore. The service was exceptional -- friendly, attentive, and you can tell the staff genuinely loves what they do. -- from the natural light to the décor, it's the perfect spot for breakfast, or catching up with friends.

    Menu (3/25/25)

    Tuesday 3/25/25 This spot was brought to my attention when I came across a TikTok review from mrchimetime. I had this place on my list for a while, but now I'm finally trying it. I tried calling my order twice but was unsuccessful, so I went in person to order (they have online ordering, but it's more expensive). I was surprised that it was located inside the Lexington market (lower level side). I spent $67.10 total on the Chesapeake cheesesteak sub $26.50, hawt hun-nay $9, cookies n cream waffle $12, and the cap'n on the go $15.80. The service was solid and my order was ready in about 33 minutes. - The Chesapeake cheesesteak, while messy and overly moist, was my favorite item. Its a cheesesteak sub with shrimp and crab added. Luckily, a lot of that moistness/wetness goes away once I pop it in the air fryer, and doing that makes it very good. I assume that's the way it's supposed to be. - The hawt hun-nay looked great and tasted good, but could've been a lot better if the hot honey sauce was present throughout the sandwich. - The cookies and cream waffle was alright but charging an extra $2.50 for Oreo toppings was wack as they barely give you any toppings. - The cap'n on the go is a Captain Crunch French toast breakfast sandwich. The French toast was thick and had a great texture and taste that reminded me of potato bread. The Item may look like "diabetes"(lol), but it's worth it. Shoutout to mrchimetime for putting me on, I'd be open to coming back.

    Chicken cheesesteak
    Bianca S.

    This chicken cheesesteak was delicious!! I have been dreaming about the fries ever since! I can't wait to come back to try more menu options. As I sat and waited for my food at the bar, I was able to see the cooks cheffing up other orders and everything looked good!!!

    I recently visited Lexington market and stopped at Sunnyside. During the morning it gets very busy so I ordered online for pick up. The food is still pretty decent. I ordered the Captain crunch French toast breakfast sandwich. And I also ordered grits, but my grits were too buttery. I enjoyed my fruit tea, but I wish I would've had a little bit more fruit in it and not too much sugar.

    This spot was hitting on every level. The fish and grits was something new that I had never tasted before with the sweet honey glaze all over the fish. The grits were delicious and had a lot of cheese. The rest of the food looked delicious. Next time I wanna try the pancakes and French toast, which are very large portions. Everything is made fresh to order and comes out hot. The counter is small, so most people took their food to go however, if you would like to eat in, they can serve you on the spot. The service was very friendly and fast.

    I first learned about Sunny Side Cafe from a popular instagram food critic, Mr. Chimetime. He raved about this place, so I had to give them a try. He wasn't lying! The food was amazing! First, the cafe is located in the newly renovated Lexington Market. They truly did an amazing job with this market. It's so clean and fresh, and there are tons of door businesses to patronize. Now, back to the food, Mr. Chimetime told not one lie! This food was GOODT! My husband had the Salmon, sausage egg and cheese sandwich. They sausage was cooked into the salmon, genius idea, very well executed! I gave the No sunshine when she's gone bowl a try.....it was fire! The catfish was super crispy and seasoned perfectly! The grits were creamy and delicious, the perfect consistency. Great experience!

    My first time visiting and it did not disappoint! I got the capt'n crunch breakfast sandwich and it was sooooo good. And super filling. I could only eat half of it. The service was really great and the food came out fast, hot and fresh. Would definitely recommend.

    Catfish and grits
    Gabe P.

    Came here for brunch. Ended up getting the catfish and cheese grits or the "No sunshine." It did not disappoint. The fish was super crispy, slightly sweet and a generous portion. The cheese grits were simply delicious. It was big enough for 2 meals for me. I will say I did end up waiting 25 minutes as the line was long- and rightfully so. So just a tip when you do come here!

    I've been seeing the reviews all on IG so took a chance!! They ain't lie! This catfish and grits is so good! Real catfish not swai! Fried and seasoned to perfection. Grits were creamy, cheesy and seasoned too! Da'Mari at the front has excellent service!! He's a great vibe!! I'll be back for sure!!!

    Captain crunch French toast sandwich
    Giovanna P.

    Ok I don't even like super sweet stuff but when I saw that captain crunch French toast on the menu I was like OK FINE. I'll try it. So glad I did. I got it with turkey bacon and scrambled eggs with cheese. The people here are super friendly. I'd say my food took 10-15minutes max on a busy day. So perfectly reasonable wait time. And I just browsed around Lexington market while waiting. I ate it when I got home and it was SOOOOO yummy. Just the perfect kinda sweet I was craving. No syrup necessary. And it came with a cute little fresh strawberry on top. I would definitely go back. There were lots of other options on the menu that I'd also like to try

    Going down to Lexington Market on a Saturday, I knew it was going to be a minute until I got my food. It was sure worth the wait.

    I've recently started working in the area and they are supper close thus I decided to try them out…read more I was very excited when I saw it was Korean owned however their K-food section is only two items; Bulgogi Dupbap & the Bulgogi Sub. The rest of the menu is American stuff. I've as of now tried both of these and very content with the taste and filling of these two, the price is reasonable per the portion and yummyness($12.49) plus tax about $13.25. The only thing I would change a bit is making sure that the juice from the bulgogi doesn't soak the bread too much cuz then it's mushy. I like a crunchy texture to my subs, but the may be just my preference. Both the son and the mom are super nice, if you become a regular it's very nice to have people know what you want right away. The atmosphere is very warm and friendly. I hope that they can incorporate more korean food to their menu, at least 2 more that have a different protein so we have a bit more variety. Though I understand why the options for kfood are limited given the area's population. Things to keep in mind: - When you order let them know if you want it to go or to eat there. Nobody can read minds, but they will do their best to ask you prior to packaging to confirm. - It can get busy so sometimes transaction may take longer because people are multitasking. - - - Don't rip out the receipt, you might be taking the wrong copy. Wait for the cashier to hand it to you or simply ask. -If you have questions about a product, ask them and don't assume. Yes. There is a big menu and pamphlets available and they provide brief item description but if that's not clear, just ask. They also have prepackaged salads, fruit and a few sweet treats, along with MissVickies chips, and bottle drinks. It's a cafe so the basics. Overall, really nice experience. Tots recommended :3

    Solid Experience, But I Miss the Old Owner…read more Café on the Square is a reliable spot with decent food and a cozy atmosphere. The service was good, and the dishes were tasty, but nothing that really stood out. That being said, I miss the old owner--there was something special about his presence that made every visit feel more welcoming and personal. I hope the new management keeps things moving in the right direction. I'll definitely return, but it's just not quite the same without the old vibe.

    I don't know how anyone could give this place fewer than five stars; if I could, I would give it…read moresix! The food was absolutely amazing. I had the Southern Slammer Sandwich (with the grits) and my sister had the Fried Chicken, Biscuit and Gravy Omelet (with the hash browns). We couldn't stop saying how good they were! The service was on point, everyone was very nice, and the noise level was fine. Here is something I literally have never experienced anywhere else: My sister has a couple of food allergies and she gave the waitress a piece of paper where she listed out what she can and cannot have. A few minutes later, a lovely young woman (I think she said she was a manager) came out and discussed the list with my sister in detail, just to make sure the restaurant got it exactly right. My sister almost cried! As far as timing goes: They don't take reservations, but they have an efficient system -- when you arrive, they take down your name and phone number, tell you how long the wait will be, and then text you when it's your turn. They told us 40 minutes but it turned out to be only 20, so it's good we hadn't wandered too far away. Next time we're in Baltimore, we'll definitely be back.

    I know this Maryland favorite . However,my food was very disappointing I sent two entrees back …read more I ordered the "great your grits on " blackened salmon no blackened seasoning they use oldbay. The waiteness suggested the fried chicken gravy omelette under cooked and chicken was hard . When cut the omelette eggs started running .This also was sent back .Buffalo Shrimp Deviled Egg Platter . Was ok great presentation however need some salt and mayonnaise not creamy .The manager was great was still trying to satisfy me I keep my grits and ordered a side of bacon . I also be careful in which garage you park in because they don't validate all garages . African American entrees but the seasoning wasn't good. I'm sorry oldbay is not answer . Next time I'm in town I would love to offer my service because miss Shirley wouldn't be pleased. Ambiance was great for familles. You are able hold a conversation amongst the table. I wasn't they only one complaining about my entrees. Next time I'm in town I would love to offer my service because miss Shirley wouldn't be pleased. I'm from the south .
