We came here because it was close to an errand. GLAD WE DID I always choose a basic meal and my husband had to try the breakfast bowl. 1. Basic 2 eggs (I asked for a very specific way for my eggs to be cooked. EXACTLY as ordered 2. Pancakes were slightly sweet with kind of a vanilla back flavor. Even my picky husband said they were really good. 3. Bacon. Well, it's bacon My husband's meal 1. He said it was good, but specifically he loved the potatoes. Crispy on outside, soft and fluffy on the inside. YUM! 2. Order an additional biscuit. OH MY! Flaky, soft, buttery BUT they then open it up and grill them! SO GOOD! Coffee is Community. What can you say, you like or don't, but we thought it was good and dark and flavorful! It's more of a diner set up but it was clean, even the bathroom clean and smells so too! We would recommend. read more

My son sent me breakfast with ubber. It was a perfect Mothers Day Surprise. The food came Hot and delicious.

The place has a diner feel which is adorable. Our waitress was the sweetest. The drinks were delicious and there was a lot of variety. We had the breakfast burrito (didn't get a picture) and the breakfast quesadilla. The portions were huge and they were both great. We had hashbrowns as our side. They were perfectly crispy. We will definitely be back. read more

I dined here about 6 months ago and I think this is a decent greasy spoon, type diner. I love the 50s look of it with retro diner bar stools, tables, and chairs. It was quaint. I ordered only unhealthy things. I first ordered a very sugar filled hot chocolate with cool whip on top. Then I ordered a very messy and breakfast sandwich, but instead of bread as the sandwich part, it was waffles. Holy Mole! It was probably 8 million calories, but I enjoyed it. I am glad that I am able to order such unhealthy things like this because it seems like most places cater to health food or maybe are too afraid to put things like this on the menu. So, kudos to yall. It is a rather large menu, so you are bound to find something you like. They serve breakfast and lunch till about 3pm. Plenty of parking outside. The only pet peeve I had is that the waitress barely checked on us and wasn't really visible to try to signal. I am a thirsty girl and my water was never re-filled or even asked if I wanted a refill when she did finally check in on us. Other than that, this is again a decent little greasy spoon diner. read more

We had a good breakfast experience here. I got the po boy omelette, which was good. My husband got the breakfast burrito which he really liked. And my mother in law got the blueberry pancakes with bacon and really enjoyed them. The service was good even though they were very busy. read more

Great service, very attentive. The restaurant was very cute, but the middle booths are a bit small so table was crowded. Food was good, and coffee was great. Got the blueberry waffles, the breakfast burrito, and the breakfast skillet. Food came out quickly despite it being Sunday "brunch" time. Will definitely come back. read more

Placed breakfast takeout order for everyone in my family plus my daughter's two friends. Got home with order and half food missing. Got the run around when I called to get rest of order. The food we did get wasn't worth the $100 I paid or the trouble. We'll never get food from Sunny Side again. read more

Went in for breakfast on a Saturday morning. Had blueberry pancakes and coffee. Both were pretty good. The pancakes had a blueberry compote and blueberry's inside. Pretty basic but also good. The service was great. My food was up quickly and coffee refilled fast. The diner itself is a very typical American diner vibe with heavy NOLA themes. Would go back. read more

Great food and friendly staff. One of those hidden foodie jewels. Easy parking. The steak is well seasoned and prepared to order. . read more

I have ordered takeout before and was pretty impressed so we decided to go in. We were immediately greeted and was shock to find out how clean the place was. We did smell Moko someone smoking in there not sure who, but this is the second time we went in and smelled smoke. We ordered our food it was up probably five minutes later and it was absolutely delicious. I ordered the banana Foster pancakes. The hashbrowns are absolutely wonderful. Get a double portion! I would've given it five stars however, there's someone that works there with sausage fingers with blisters on them. She coughed in her hand and continue to pick up plates out of the window. I have a really big problem with that.. they need to make sure that the staff is as clean as they keep their restaurant. read more

I wish I took a photo of my food but I wasn't expecting the food to be as delicious as it was! We are definitely returning. We had the chicken and waffles and the Grilled skillet with a ribeye. Everything was fresh and cooked perfectly. Sometimes you expect low budget food and lack luster service when visiting a diner however this was the opposite. Our waitress, Georgie was kind and quick with service. The only thing I'd say they can improve on is the overall cleanliness. The floors, window seals and countertops all need some TLC. read more

I ordered take out from this restaurant. I had the ribeye and eggs and banana foster french toast. The steak was cooked pretty well and I really liked the french toast, although I usually like it a bit crispier than what it was. I'd give it another try, it's pretty decent breakfast read more

Friday 3/14/25 I placed a delivery order for shrimp and cheese grits with fried fish. The food was horrible. The grits was watery with no seasoning or butter, the shrimp tasted raw. They sprinkled a few pieces of shredded cheese over the grits and that was it. THIS WAS THE WORST EXPERIENCE EVER!!!! read more

Delivery order: I lazily ordered breakfast from this place 2 days in a row...dont judge me! Lol. Their delivery fee is pretty cheap on Doordash in comparison to other places serving breakfast. I ordered a combo breakfast that came with eggs, hashbrowns, bacon, and pecan pancakes. Also ordered a coffee. Food was pretty tasty and still warm on arrival...i only live abt 5 min from this place...yeah i know...im a lazy lil sh$t. Anywho..i enjoyed the hashbrowns the most. Crunchy on the outside n soft n warm on the inside. Pancakes were a bit thick and I wasnt given any creamer or sugar for my coffee but i am still definitely a fan. read more

We passed by Sunny Side up on a Sunday afternoon around 2pm. This is a new diner style restaurant by Elmwood off of Citrus. At this time of day about every restaurant in the Elmwood area is packed, but Sunny Side Up was only 1/4 full and we easily found a table. They serve breakfast all day and we ordered the Country Fried Steak and Silorin breakfast both with eggs sunny side up. Both the country fried steak, the sirloin and our eggs were cooked perfectly and served with no unnecessary delays. My only issue with the restaurant is I have a limited appetite so I plan to visit again so I can try out their other breakfast and lunch options. I highly recommend Sunny Side Up for their great breakfast menu, great service and hassle free dining away from the usual NOLA breakfast & brunch crowds. read more

I'm glad my boyfriend and I stopped here! I've passed this restaurant so many times when I used to work in Harahan but never had the courage to stop lol. The outside doesn't seem appealing. However, the food was great! We ordered breakfast, below you will see my cheesy waffle Sandwich. It was so tasty! Sausage, egg, syrup and cheese waffles on top. I was extremely satisfied. The prices were great and the staff was so friendly! read more

Food & service were fine but way too pricy for a regular breakfast & the only reason I won't go very much

Food is yummy. The pot roast sandwich is so comforting. Service is friendly and fast. Ambiance is on point for a dinner. read more

Pretty good spot that's close to the bar you would usually find in metry. Came with the lady looking for that diner breakfast fix. We sat at the bar and was waited by a lovely waitress who was keen to our wants and needs. She even let us change the music on the tv so everyone can listen to great tunes to me and the wife's liking... (I truly apologize to every ones ear drums). Anyway, the cheesy waffle sandwich is everything you think about when ordering it. A egg and bacon sandwich stuffed between two waffles, baked cheddar cheese on top and it is all drizzled with syrup...... just put the lard in my veins please! Truly a hole in the wall diner and pretty good food. Go give them a try! read more

Stopped in for late breakfast today. First time there and I was pleasantly surprised on how clean, bright and inviting it was. I had been at this cafe when it was under different name and wasn't impressed. Got the pork chops and eggs and everything came out quickly and hot. Very friendly staff and yummy food. Will definitely go back soon. read more

Not sure what happened here and why the food wasn't checked before sending it out, but I will for sure always check my food now!!!!! The lady was super nice when I called about it but I also am a manger at a restaurant and I always have to check my fruit and veggies to make sure there isn't MOLD on my guests food. read more

Disclaimer: I tried this place via delivery app. I was pleased with my order. I had pecan French toast, scrambled eggs, turkey bacon, and potatoes. I was expecting the pecan French toast to be more than French toast with some pecans thrown on top, but that is what it is. Still, the French toast was really good and satisfied my craving. Mine did not come with powdered sugar but I'm okay with just syrup on my French toast. The sides were pretty good. I'm so happy they offer turkey bacon. It's amazing how many places only offer regular, pork bacon in 2020. The eggs and potatoes were a bit under-seasoned, but they were still good enough to eat. But, overall, I do not mind dining or ordering from this place again. read more

If you ever in the area and looking for a good breakfast joint, you have to give them a try. Excellent pancakes and omelets, to just good old bacon and eggs. Everything is always hot and fresh.

Because of work, I rarely get a decent breakfast. Just discovered Sunny Side Up and it was excellent. Bright, cheerful ambiance. Very popular with locals it seems. Extremely clean in side wall to wall. Generous portions of food that was hot, as ordered, and very reasonably priced compared to other restaurants in this post-apocalyptic era. Probably didn't wait 10 minutes from ordering until my food was served to me. Looking forward to returning to try the Bananas Foster pancakes or a funnel cake (lots of topping options. I was craving a ham and cheese breakfast sandwich and it exceeded my expectations. Got a side of sausage patties which were huge. Coffee is comparable to Waffle House coffee which is my favorite so +1. Owner seems like a good, hard working man who was behind the counter serving alongside his other staff on this Sunday morning. They seemed to have lots of staff on duty. Highly recommended. read more

Delicious! I was a little worried at first because there was nothing but Caucasian folx eating inside, but once we were seated everything was fine. I got a blueberry lemonade and it was so good! I also got the banana Foster pancakes, also delicious and some grits bacon and over easy eggs. I really enjoyed myself! read more

My son and I thoroughly enjoyed Sunny Side Up! We didn't want a chain experience and weren't disappointed at all. First, SSU is clean, bright, and inviting. Second, service is prompt, friendly, and is delightful. Thirdly, the breakfast lives up to your expectations. The pancakes were soft and delicious. The Country Fried Streak and eggs definitely hit the spot. My son couldn't stop eating from my plate. We really recommend you stop by SSU; it's a great way to start your day. Plus, there's Saints flair and a life sized Drew Brees Fathead wall decal. What's not to like about our QB? read more

Sunny side up is a meet me at the spot! For starters, very impressive menu! The first thing I ordered was a banana milkshake to complement my daughters Oreo milkshake on Father's Day! I loved it, I don't know how fresh it was but it definitely taste that way. Next, I ordered biscuits and gravy. I loved it with the sausage over top. Grits and eggs done well I loved that it wasn't seasoned and they had the salt and pepper. I just wish they had a blend of seasoning on the table too maybe some Tony Chachere or maybe their own signature. Finally, if your looking for the best banana foster I suggest you give them a try! I want to go back and I think the next time it might be a four or five star as this time I played it safe! read more

Walking in. Was horrified by the crowded appearance. Literally tables crammed down the center walk way so that any person sitting in one of the tables had a person who would be sitting at the counters butt in their face, lucky enough to score a table at the window. The table was dirty. The waitress was kind enough to clear it off for us. The sanitation of the table was half ass. Barely wiped. Ok breath new place let's give them a chance. Coffee came in a little pot of your own. Thoughts prevailed is it washed before re usage? Coffee itself was strong. Army strong with a slight after burned taste. Ok. Menu was pretty impressive. Please be advised the senior breakfast is the same price as the regular breakfast of the same name. No where on the menu does it state add Ana such as the pecan French toast is more expensive. Ie.... 8.99. Was now 9.99 with another 99 cents added o. Making the total cost closer to 11 dollars the. The original nine. The place was packed so we did have to wait for our food. His pancakes arrived first. No turkey bacon. Waited another five for my order. You would think with having to wait for my order it would arrive piping hot. You would be wrong. Bacon cold hard and flavorless, French toast bland cold and more eggy tasting then French toast tasting. Amd the little cubes of potatoes again maybe like warm. With diced onions. And peppers. But they weren't cooked together too add flavor, they were cooked separately and spooned on top. Now you can say well by the time I took a bite of each item. Of course they had cooled down , you would be mistaken. I took a bite of each to test taste. None of the items were served at what would be FDA health standards. Ohhh. Finished with poking at the inedible food on the plates. Sausage bacon showed up after he had finished his breakfast. The waitress? She was polite, and over worked. She is only able todo as much as the kitchens allows her. Bad kitchen bad food. Bad quality experience. Not sure where the five star reviews come from. But it wasn't apparent in today's experience. The one star is for the waitress. And her aline. read more
