Sausage bagel sandwich!
Pamela S.

​If you're looking for a super satisfying, classic breakfast experience, this is absolutely the spot! ​The vibe here is chill and welcoming. The staff is incredibly friendly, and you are greeted instantly upon arrival. ​I ordered the French Toast Breakfast, which came with my choice of bacon, scrambled eggs, and orange juice. The eggs were surprisingly fluffy, the bacon was perfectly crispy, and the French toast was well-cooked, not overly sugary or mushy. My friend tried the Bagel Sausage Sandwich and said it was fresh, with a super tasty sausage, making it an overall fulfilling sandwich. ​Side-note: The seating area is a bit small, but honestly, it didn't impact the great service or food quality at all.

The owner and staff are amazing! It's not a chain spot and you know it's a mom and pop when you go in. It's warm, welcoming, and has enough seating. Basic coffee is all you need because the food is delicious. The stacker and special were great. I would definitely come back and I highly recommend.

Menu

We ordered and paid our food at the register. The restaurant was a bit small. We ordered the biscuits and gravy, breakfast burrito, and pancakes and eggs. The biscuits and gravy were okay. It has a lot of butter and bits of bacon which I'm not used to. My son said the breakfast burrito was the best he has.

FOUND THIS GEM ON YELP and was so thankful to have came by and check it out while working in Fresno. This little spot is awesome!! Do your life a favor and swing by if your the area. I came by on a Thursday and was happy to see they were serving up breakfast burritos. I went with a ham and cheese burrito and that thing was PACKED with flavor. It was also MASSIVE. A 10 out of 10 and worth every penny I spent. Thank you Sunnyside diner for the great food! I will defenitly be back for that burrito again. Till next time!

Breakfast Sandwich

Sandwich was simple and easy. The chef looked like he owns the place. He was very attentive to what I ordered and how to prepare the food to my preference. It had an old school type of fast food type of vibe without it being fast food type of food. Used fresh eggs and toasted the bread. I would go again for a sandwich. The coffee was simple diner type but it wasn't gross. It tasted fresh.

The Sunnyside Diner is hands-down the best spot in South Fresno if you want quality food and great prices. Everything tastes homemade. The hamburgers are just like the burgers you make at home, and the omelettes are on another level. You can get a tri-tip omelette loaded with all the fixings, a carne asada omelette, or even a ground beef omelette that's honestly one of the best I've had. The dinners are great, and the clam chowder is excellent and extra clammy, just the way it should be. The breakfast burritos are awesome and at a great price, nice and large too. I can't say enough good things about this place. The customer service is always excellent.

This is one of those little hidden gems that you don't always hear about. Why, who knows! But, if you haven't been it's well worth checking out. I've been here numerous times over the years & the food is always good, decent little set up & the owner is also friendly. It is a small spot with I think 5-6 tables, so seating is definitely limited. All in all: Good food, friendly service, but seating is very limited. However, it's always good to support our local small business!

Inside
Heather B.

Wow this place caught me off guard. I was looking for a cute diner to get breakfast and there's not much in Fresno. We "settled" on this one. When we got there, who I believe is the owner, greeted us immediately and told us about their menu and specials. The portions are perfect size and left us completely content. My pancake platter was fluffy and full of flavor. My partners burrito had the perfect proportions of food inside. Will definitely be coming back when I come into town again!

My youngest went straight for the pancakes and my other one wanted the grilled cheese. Both plates came out looking bigger than I expected. The funny part was watching them start strong and then realize they couldn't finish everything. We ended up taking some home, which nobody complained about. They've already asked when we're going back, so I guess that answered that.

I am extremely disappointed with my experience at batter up Fresno this past Thursday. My family…read moreand I have been coming here for over 10 years, and we have brought my service dog with us before without an issue. Unfortunately, this visit was completely different. There seemed to be new staff and management, and shortly after arriving, I was questioned about my service dog. I completely understand that businesses are allowed to ask whether a dog is a service animal required because of a disability and what task the dog is trained to perform. I had no problem answering those questions. What I did have a problem with was being repeatedly asked to provide proof or documentation. First the server asked, then the manager asked me again, and then another employee became involved. I even had documentation available and showed it, although under the ADA, businesses generally cannot require service-dog certification, paperwork, or proof as a condition of entry. What made the experience even more uncomfortable was noticing staff talking among themselves and pointing toward me after I explained that I had already answered the permitted questions. It made me feel singled out and unwelcome. My service dog is extremely gentle and well behaved. We have been loyal customers for more than a decade, so being treated this way was especially disappointing. I ultimately decided to leave because I did not feel comfortable giving my business to a restaurant after being treated this way. Unfortunately, batterup lost a longtime customer that day. For anyone dining with a service dog, my experience at Mimi's Cafe was the complete opposite. I felt welcomed and treated respectfully without being made to feel uncomfortable or embarrassed. I hope batter up Fresno provides its staff and management with proper ADA service-animal training so another customer does not have to experience this

HUGE Thank You to our Server Jessica and the rest of the staff here! Everyone was so nice, Jessica…read moreespecially was super attentive, our coffees were always full, our food came out at a decent time and it was still nice and hot and she was so friendly throughout our time here, so Jessica if you ever see this, Thank you so much, we appreciate you! We happened to be in the area today with a failed trip to Lithia Ford for a car repair. We both were hungry and needed to choose between breakfast or Mexican food, we flipped a coin and the coin chose breakfast. I'm glad it did, cause right when we were heading towards another breakfast spot, we made the quick decision to just choose what was nearby. It's a restaurant name we've heard of, but haven't been, so we opted to give it a try. I'm so glad we did! Because the food was amazing and the service just as much! Parking lot was full but not too crazy, that luckily came after we were seated. Inside was nicely themed to Louisiana Bayou with gators and cute signs with quotes and a big tree in the seating area with sound effects of bugs from the swamp. As soon as we walked in we were welcomed with a nice greeting from one of the busy waitresses who let us know we would be seated in a moment. Our server Jessica came up with a smile and a warm welcome and had us follow her to our booth. We both started off with coffee and browsed the menu, this menu had some usual fair but definitely stayed in the theme of the restaurant with Louisiana cuisine, like andouille sausage as a breakfast meat choice. I went with their "Hucks Platter" which is 3 eggs anyway you want, choice of potatoes or hashbrowns and you can choose between a couple varieties of meats, steak, chicken fried steak, sausage, bacon and andouille. It also comes with a choice of side, being toast, homemade biscuit or their huckleberry bread? I played it safe and went with the white toast. I also went with the bacon cause I love me some bacon! It was hickory smoked and my goodness it was cooked to perfection! My whole meal was cooked perfectly! I truly appreciate the cooking staff for doing such an amazing job during a busy morning. Jess chose the Banana Foster French Toast and my goodness! It looked just as good if not better than the picture. It was loaded, thick and comes with a side of eggs and your choice of meat. She loved the French toast, she's never had Bananas Foster before but she said it was decadent, sweet and had a nice caramelized flavor. Would recommend and also get it again! We paid, "with tip" around $57, which isn't bad for most breakfast spots now a days. Especially when you're getting this kind of food quality and service. We never went without a fresh hot cup of coffee and a nice check in from Jess or one of the other servers to pick up a plate or ask us how we're doing. I do apologize for no pictures, when the food came out, it looked so good we just dug right in! We both would absolutely come back and eat here again if we're in the area or back in Fresno looking for a breakfast spot. If you're in and or from here, you should definitely make this your go-to breakfast spot!

The food did take a while to get to us but I ordered an appetizer and that did come fast so it held us over and honestly, I wasn't holding it against them. It was so packed. The server was very nice. I ordered a Cajun omelette and we also had the fried okra. My husband had the Riverboat omelette. Both were very good. The biscuit that I had with the omelette was fresh and hot and a really good size. The okra came with two different dipping sauces. The restaurant has a nice vibe inside. Love this place and can't wait to come back again.

They have a cute outdoor theme with plenty of spaces and an open kitchen. Their bar was pretty cool too with many options for signature drinks and cocktail mixers. It's great for small or big parties. I had the Bison Meatloaf and was indecisive between a burger or the meatloaf. The server was knowledgeable in giving me her best recommendation. The meal did not disappoint. I'm always looking for healthy protein plates to eat. The portion was good. My guest had the roasted chicken club sandwich and a side of watermelon, which looked juicy and sweet. It gave us the energy we needed to head back home. The convenient location in a shopping center also gave us the exercise to explore other stores. We will definitely be back!

The drinks were great including the ice tea, peach bourbon special. They had a peach arugula flatbread appetizer that was super tasty as was the hot honey feta dip. I had the garlic kung pao with shrimp and it too was very good. The menu is vast with a ton of different options though it leans towards an Asian flair. I will 100% be coming back soon and trying other things.
