Was in the area and checked Yelp for a breakfast suggestion. Sunny Up Cafe showed great reviews so I tried it. Located inside an Auto Spa/Gas Station it makes good use of its space. There are several booths for seating and orders are taken at the counter. I had the Breakfast Platter with eggs, bacon, turkey sausage, hash browns and toast. I also ordered an Oat Milk Latte with Vanilla. The food was done perfect! Lightly seasoned and basted eggs, flavorful bacon and toast that was perfectly buttered and crisp. They also have at least 4 different hot sauces to choose from. And... the Latte was one of the best I have had anywhere! My order was taken by Daniel and he also made the Latte. His attitude and attentiveness were exemplary. I look forward to returning again as the menu has many tasty looking items.
A café inside a gas station?! Don't let that throw you off. The food was amazing, and the presentation was surprisingly beautiful. The service at Sunny Up Cafe was just as impressive I can honestly say I was blown away. The staff were incredibly helpful with recommendations, and we ended up trusting them completely. I ordered the chilaquiles with red sauce, while my partner had the green sauce version both had an authentic Mexican flavor and were excellent. We also shared sides of black beans and potatoes. The other couple with us ordered the breakfast burritos, which were a very generous size (check out the photos!). Overall, I'd definitely come back for breakfast when I'm in the area. Parking is a bit limited since the café is located inside a gas station, but don't let that stop you from enjoying a delicious meal.
I was craving chilaquiles for breakfast and did a quick search on my Yelp app. Many Mexican restaurants popped up, but this one caught my eye because it appeared to have excellent reviews and it was located inside the Chevron gas station mini mart! The cross streets are RSM Pkwy and Alton Pkwy in Foothill Ranch. I checked their menu online and decided to order pick up to go. I ordered the chilaquiles and chose rib eye for my protein, red sauce and my eggs over easy for $12.99. Yes you read that right! I couldn't believe how reasonably priced all of their items were! One thing to note is that they do charge a service fee. I'm not sure if it's a flat fee or a percentage of the total cost, but mine came out to $2.50. Nevertheless, $16.50 is a great price for chilaquiles! It took around 20 min for my food to be ready. The guy behind the counter was very friendly and offered me a free hibiscus tea drink since it was my first time there! The chilaquiles came with queso fresco, pico de gallo, sour cream, avocado & onions. It also came with potatoes & beans. And let me tell you... they were one of the best chilaquiles I've ever had! The red sauce was so delicious and all of the ingredients came together perfectly. My only wish is that the corn chips didn't get soggy so fast, but that's a minor thing. The overall taste was outstanding! I will definitely return soon to try some of their other items!
My family appreciates having this place as a nearby dining option. We have dined in and ordered take away several times since we discovered it. We recently went for brunch. As always, we were impressed with the cleanliness, friendly service, quality and portion size of the food we received. Everything tasted great. The food is fairly priced. They have a salsa bar, which is always nice to have. This time around we were given complimentary chips and beans to share, which was a pleasant surprise. We hope more people find out about this place so that they can stay in business.
We had a great breakfast here. Authentic Mexican flavors, large portions, and a very nice server. A pleasant surprise in a gas station! We returned the next day and were equally pleased.
Daniel was a great host. I had two street tacos. Al pastor was delicious and so was the carne asada. I was gifted a black bean tostada this was perfect. I added a mix of the habenero and tomatillo salsa. My mouth is still tingling. They have a high end coffee machine and the coffee is HOT and perfect. Picnic tables to sit on. More of a take out crowd. I don't know why I only think of them when I'm having my car repaired.
One of the best breakfast burritos I've had in OC! The place is tucked inside a Chevron gas station, but don't let that fool you. I'm always on the hunt for a good BB and I've found my spot. I ordered the turkey sausage (a more healthier option than bacon lol), eggs, hash browns and avocado. It comes with avocado at no extra charge, which is a plus. I added pico de gallo. The meat to egg, hash brown ratio was perfect. I loved that the hashies were a little crispy and not soggy! The turkey sausage was really good too and the burrito itself had good flavor. And it's a HUGE burrito. Oh, and they also grill it to make it the near perfect burrito all for around $12 which is a great price for the quality of the burrito. I'll be going back to try their chilaquiles next.
Sunny Up Cafe is located inside the Chevron ExtraMile mini mart, where Charro used to be. It has a limited menu that I would describe as Am-Mex. There are omelettes, pancakes and French toast, as well as burritos and chilaquiles. Most items are $15. It does offer a couple daily special items for less. It doesn't have many tables like a diner such as Denny's. You order from the counter first then find a table to sit down to eat or take it to go. Basically a place for a quick meal.
My friends recommended this place as a new spot for us to try out. It's located within the ExtraMile gas station and it just recently opened. For the place to be located in a gas station, I wasn't expecting not only the food to taste that good but I didn't expect the portion sizes to be that big either!! I only paid about $5 for my taco and it filled my entire plate and my appetite. The woman who was helping to serve was on top of her game! The moment I came in, she greeted me with a Good Morning and a smile. After taking my order and serving the other girls, she was still so attentive and friendly and accommodating. I wish I got her name, but I wanted to say THANK YOU for your kindness (I'll get your name the next time I come in!) Overall, for the first time, I give it a 4/5! Only because my meat was a little on the dry end. But I look forward to trying Sunny Up again!

Saw this spot on tiktok and didn't realize it was even there! So glad we tried this spot out. It is located inside the Chevron in foothill ranch off Alton (the corner after Taco Bell). Great prices, service, and even better portion sizes! We ordered online and picked up in store. We ordered the steak sunny up breakfast burrito and the strawberry & cream pancakes. They do not skimp out here! I wish I remembered to take a photo of the burrito size before we cut it in half. I think it was the length of my forearm? We forgot to ask for a side of salsa but it wasn't really needed, the burrito was not dry because of all the cheese, guac, sour cream, and pico de gallo. My husband can typically finish his own burrito but this thing was huge and we ended up halving it! I also like how there was not an upcharge for steak like some places have. The strawberries and cream pancakes were thick and fluffy! It came in a stack of 3. Aside from the fruit slices on top of the pancakes, they also fill each layer with fruit before placing the next pancake on top. I may just use excessive amounts of syrup so I'll need to ask for extra next time but they give a generous portion of the purple white blueberry cream. For ~$27, we got full off our burrito halves and still have more than half the pancake order left for later. Seriously such a great find and can't wait to try out more items from Sunny Up! Definitely worth a visit. read more

We arrived and we almost left right away.... Eating in a gas station store felt strange... But we thought we should try it anyway... and we even ate there to try the full experience. Well let me tell you it was amazing!! The presentation was amazing, the quantities were so generous we had to take left overs to go, and the service was fantastic. Yes it felt weird to be in a gas station store but there is not much traffic so it's fine. We got the burrito and the chilaquiles and both were amazing (totally recommend it) and while we waited for our food we got beans and hot chips! On top of that service was fast and there was no line!! I'll go back for sure! read more
This is one of the few times I've been hesitant to leave a review because I don't want a secret spot to become busy, but sunny up cafe definitely deserves more attention. There's some real talent and creativity going on in the kitchen. Gas station food has no right being this delicious and the fancy presentation and plating was a pleasant surprise. There are parking spaces around the edge of the gas station or a few somewhat cramped parking spots right in front of the entrance. You can enter through either door and the cafe is 4 small tables at the back of a gas station. You order at the counter and after we were seated we got some freshly fried chips along with a delicious bean dip. The breakfast burrito is definitely a contender for the best in Orange County. I went with bacon and sausage and the combination of meats, sauces, and potatoes was perfect. It had a great balance of flavors and textures and managed to be decadent without being overly fatty or saucy. The grilled exterior and presentation added to the experience. Salt levels and seasoning were great for all the ingredients and the sausage was particularly good in the breakfast burrito. Their eggs Benedict was also well executed with the poached eggs perfectly cooked and an excellent hollandaise sauce. This place is a bit out of the way so I also got a couple of tacos to go because I was too full to eat anymore. They have both larger tacos as well as street tacos. I got the larger asada tacos and they had too much meat for my preference. The meat was delicious as was the salsa from the self serve salsa bar. While this cafe doesn't have the ambience(or the high price tag)of a trendy brunch spot, the food can definitely compete. read more

Stopped in at the recommendation of a coworker. The place did not fail to impress with the food. Small little spot hidden inside the Chevron gas station. Two street tacos pastor and asada, and the chiliquias. They tossed in a tostada on the house. Beans were flavorful, the meat was perfectly cooked with no traces of gritty fat. Not only good flavor, but the after bite had good flavor and left me wanting more. I will be back. Additionally, the staff were nice and friendly. read more
