This was my dad's favorite diner, and we decided to drive up to Catalina to reminisce. We were seated quickly, and I recognized the server. She remembered my dad and his daily order well. My partner and I ordered omelettes with potatoes and fruit, which were decent diner fare. At Sunny Side Up you can expect diner ambiance, great service, and decent food. read more

Cute little place for breakfast. Staff was so friendly. Eggs were cooked properly - very first thing when considering a breakfast place! Prices were pretty normal for 2026 but I still remember pre-covid when breakfast was reasonably priced. They probably need to clean a bit 'around the edges' like the ceiling and fans...guess I watch too many TV cooking shows. I will go back. read more

Sunnyside is like the old fashioned diners from the past. There is literally black and white checks around the walls and chicken figurines everywhere. The service is always good and the food is as expected. I had the diced ham and eggs (senior size) and The Manfolk had a guac burger with potato salad. To start off, the burger was good but he wasn't a fan of the potato salad because it was too sweet. Maybe sweet pickles instead of dill? Not sure, but he didn't eat much of it. My ham and eggs were just what I expected. But the hashbrowns taste weird to me. I don't know if it's the oil that they're fried with but I couldn't eat much of them. It's not cheap eating anywhere nowadays, but we were at $40 by the time we paid, including the standard 20% gratuity. It's hard to justify those costs but I think I'd find another place next time. read more

I ordered the waffle breakfast-the waffle came with a hair so I returned it and the new waffle had black bits in it. The egg was supposed to be soft scrambled, moist but was not. The service was very good and a cute ambience, the link sausage was good. read more

Never been here before but have heard A TON about this place... a coworker of mine worked here many years ago.... So while on my mini staycation on that side of town, we stopped in. The place is VERY CUTE and although I didn't actually walk around - it seems there are 2 separate rooms for meetings or large get togethers. Counter that seats maybe 10. No booths/ just tables. I get it, booths are pricey to keep up. We were sat right away, our wonderful server, Beth, took great care of us. Food is typical. Nothing crazy.... But all delicious. If we are ever that way, we'd eat here again. P.S. I love reading other reviews before I actually post mine- just incase I forgot something.... to the lady who stared at her waffle in the window for 20 minutes... Really? 20 minutes... do you know how long 20 minutes is? Get outta here over exaggerator. Ha! P.S.S. - not related but I NEEDED to know what use to be in the empty lot next door; Quik Mart. Ha. read more

Great place to have breakfast, especially for a hungry cross- country bicyclist. Good food and friendly, good service.

This is a cute little restaurant that serves breakfast all day. I had the chicken fried steak with an over easy egg and hash browns. The food was good they were fast and timely the only thing that I would say is the hash browns needed to be cooked a little bit longer. read more

Sunny Side Up Cafe - a plate of fried eggs and gravy - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

Aside from the Italian Sausage, everything else is 5 stars. A great place! The pizza crust is excellent and the ingredients are fresh.

An old style country cafe that gives you a very comfy feel and serves a great breakfast! It's not a modern fixed up to look nice to get ya to come in. It's the way it was years back style the way you remembered. Good serving sizes and at a reasonable price. Older clients mainly with some even older servers who have been doing it for a while and know what needs to be done to make the customer happy. Don't always get things right, but will bend over backwards to make it right read more

very crowded...food wasn't all that... our waiter was very stand offish...not all that. Won't be going back...

We enjoyed our breakfast here. They have a nice menu with breakfast and lunch items, reasonable prices, quick and friendly service. I got the chicken fried steak with eggs. The steak was very tender and a crispy coating. It came with a large portion of hash browns, two eggs, and toast. Our server was very efficient and we got our food quickly. read more

I can't really remark on the food or the service because at 1:32pm while walking through the parking lot to the front door, the owner came out and said they were closed. Their sign says open until 2:00pm. we were not going to linger, we had been out all day and just wanted a burger and fries. we won't be back. The owner was extremely rude. read more

Best service i have had in a while. Food was good and came out fast. Thank you Celeste!

This brunch place has a small town feel but is located in a ritzy location north of Tucson, in Catalina. It's a quaint and inviting place, and the staff is very friendly. The food I ordered, eggs benedict, was great. However, one of the eggs was completely overdone so it was not runny, but solid. The other egg was a bit better. The hash browns were spot on...crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. They have some other items on their menu which sound amazing, so I'll definitely be back for more! read more

Why is this place busy? Been here twice and I make better breakfast in my sleep at home. The bread is like the dollar store, pancakes are better if I made them from a box and that's pretty bad. I even went twice to be sure and years apart and yuck read more

Sunny Side Up Cafe - Breakfast anytime so delicious crispy bacon over medium wheat toast. Yum - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

This place is definitely a home town cafe type of joint. No frills, just solid breakfast at decent price. You aren't getting gourmet food or coffee but you're certainly getting good good food and coffee. They had homemade cinnamon rolls that looked fantastic but I was trying to eat healthy. I'd have inhaled one of those, given the chance. Service was typical diner/cafe. All good! read more

Highly recommend! Our server, Celeste was so friendly- "over the top" wonderful! Great place!

I recently met up with an old college friend who was in town, and we decided to check out Sunny Side Up cafe. I've always noticed it when I travel to Chandler for work, so it seemed like a good choice. The atmosphere of the cafe gave off a charming old country diner vibe, which we really enjoyed. I decided to order their bacon cheeseburger, and it was absolutely delicious. My partner went for the Catalina dish, and our friend opted for the grilled cheese sandwich. We had a wonderful experience thanks to our waitress, Krystal. She took great care of us throughout our meal. Thank you!! read more

Food is always consistent, hot and good. Servers are amazing, quick, attentive and friendly. A great breakfast/lunch spot in Catalina, AZ.

Solid diner experience with nice environment, great staff and good food. My hash browns could've been a little crispier but that's not a big deal. I wouldn't hesitate to send friends here. The menu doesn't have the flavors of Baja Cafe but it makes up for that in its comfort and accessibility. It's the little things like having three different people checking on my coffee. read more

Very good food REALLY GREAT service. Celeste is a STAR. Will come back mostly for the personal service.

Decided to give it a go after saying "we are never coming back" two years ago. What a mistake! It was still such a disappointment as it was before. Just go anywhere else. read more

Great service from Cindy, but food was nothing special and prices are kinda pricey. $41 with tip for breakfast for two.

Ordered a basic burrito with hash browns on the side and was given what's seen in the pic. This was a to go order so when I went back up to the restaurant and asked for my food to be remade the Asian guy tried to tell me this is how they make their burritos. Lol this is Arizona who can't roll a burrito? Nevertheless my food was remade and bland as hell. Hashbrowns were more like hard brows. Doubt if I'll ever come back but they get some much veteran business I'm sure they won't care read more

We come here quite often when I come to visit my dad in town. They are always busy, but quick to turn tables and get you seated so you never have to wait too long. The food is consistent. Standard diner fare. Reasonably priced. The service is always great though! read more

Been looking for a nice breakfast place since we moved to AZ. We have tried several places and have had some good food but just didn't find a place like our favorite place back in Cali. They knew us and had great food on top of it. Was told about this little place by a local and figured we'd try it. While it may not be like our other place we think we have found our Sunday morning place. For the most part the food is just good home cooking diner style food. The service is always great and with a smile. It's not gourmet food but just good honest food. If you want good honest food you will like it here. read more

Excellent food for breakfast and lunch. Open very early until 2:00 PM. Good prices and fast, friendly service. Good, not noisy atmosphere. Very pleasant surroundings. The short-order cooking staff creates excellent omelets. No complaints...except for the very straight-back chairs which some could find a bit uncomfortable. That's a minor issue. read more

Wonderful breakfast, lives up to its name! Very busy Sunday morning but we were seated and served in record time! Our food was yummy, and coffee was fresh and my cup kept full. My eggs were perfect, I not usually an egg fan but these were perfectly. read more
