    A family run restaurant that makes just run-of-the-mill quality food. Which does not seem to deter locals from patronizing. My visit was at noon and the tables were nearly full and the take out orders were plentiful. My generous size hamburger was merely okay. Actually the 6 ounce meat patty was flavorless. I told Barbara that it was merely meat-like texture, actually a little rubbery chewy for ground beef. I added Cholula hot sauce to make it tasty enough to finish, even though I was hungry. Side of Cole slaw also was just okay, nothing special. Bambie noted for the quality, the prices seemed a bit elevated. The rent in this shopping center must be high. Nice server was helpful, cheerful and attentive. Dining room looks 1960's vintage. Bathroom is old but clean. Next time I'm driving while hungry through Pacifica, I'll seek out another eatery.

    A nice breakfast/lunch spot. We had breakfast and it was well worth the cost. Nice staff too.

    Sunrise Cafe & Grill 1241 Linda Mar Shopping Ctr, Pacifica, CA 94044 (650) 359-3811 sunrise-cafe-and-grill.wa-cafe.com Weekend of August 3rd. * This year I made sure to have breakfast at Sunrise before leaving Pacifica. * Danger! Danger! There is a Ross Department store nearby. * Warmly greeted and offered coffee 1 minute after I sat down. * I ordered what was recommended the most by the locals I spoke with. The Joe's Special- Ground beef, Italian sausage, onions, mushrooms, and spinach. I requested for extra extra feta cheese. A must for my omelette is feta cheese. Extra crispy on my hash browns. Wheat buttered toast. * My coffee cup was never empty, she was very kind enough to make sure it was always filled. Thank you. * A must when in Pacifica. Breakfast at Sunrise. Lunch at The Breakers. Dinner at Nick's.

    Huevos Rancheros, no hashbrowns

    I love how local and convenient this place. I sometimes forget it is in town. Came in here for a quick breakfast and left full after a hearty breakfast with a decent amount of breakfast choices. Everything was cooked to perfection, the portions hearty and wait staff friendly. The ambiance is your typical diner, clean and all the condiments on the table. There was only one chef so it took a hot minute for us to get food, but everything was served hot and delicious. We will be back more often!

    Came here for breakfast on accident. Originally wanted to go to another spot where they had fresh brewed coffee but wait was too long. When we got here, thankfully got seated right away. The menu options are like any other mom and pop shop very simple, no boujee coffee and also no kids menu. Place is small and can get loud (we did have my twin nephews so we contributed to the loudness that day). Our server Maria was friendly. She was a little busy and we could tell. I will say our breakfast tasted good and fresh (you know what I mean). Our overall experience was good. I was thinking 3***for this spot. I asked my sis in law what I should rate the place, she said 4****.

    Now open for dine-in. Perfect breakfast after mass.

    Lived in Pacifica for over 20 years and this is my first time visiting this cafe. Looking to find a quick breakfast meal and found this open for dine-in. Came just after 10am and was seated immediately. Host and waitresses are very friendly and attentive to your needs. Water and coffee is always filled. Great menu selection; better than Denny's in food and service! Will definitely come back again to try other meals in menu

    Small old school diner. Nice basic breakfast but $20 for the basic with 3 eggs a bit steep! Additionally, the place is small with the kitchen on back wall so can get a bit loud in "kitchen" - But if you want a nice simple breakfast - eggs cooked just like you asked , hash browns- browned up perfectly - meat and toast-with great service while hanging with the locals - you can't go wrong!

    Wow. What a great find. We walked by it a few times and never noticed it. Going in transported me back to my childhood with long counter and leather booths. Service is exceptional. 1 line cook calm and cool gets food out fast . Food portions are large even drinks are large. I can't wait to come back

    Added a little Cholula!

    Every visit to Pacifica, CA, we have breakfast at Sunrise Cafe. They have the BEST omelets! There is an option to "create your own" omelette, which is the route we take. I have egg whites, Spinach, broccoli, feta, and zucchini with avocado on top. Ohhhh man!!! It doesn't get any better than this! I must confess, there was another breakfast cafe next to our hotel which we tried when I was told, "I can make that kind of omelette for you" from the owner. I truly felt like I was cheating on Sunrise Cafe! Well, let's just say, we will continue to have breakfast at Sunrise because the other place didn't make my omelette like Sunrise can! I will never cheat on Sunrise Cafe again. Oh and I must say, at Sunrise, you can have home potatoes or hash browns, whichever You Like! Sunrise will do it Right! I swear, it's the Best Way to Start Your Day!!!

Kenny's Cafe is not fancy and by no means a fine dining establishment, but if you're into a clean restaurant with staff that takes care of their customers. Then perhaps this is a great place to try. I've worked in a restaurant for nearly half my life and I can honestly tell that it takes quite the effort to uphold a level of cleanliness and consistency especially given the fact that they've been there for over 30 years. I had their salt and pepper pork, well portioned, crispy batter, decently priced with all the right fixings and flavors.. I was not disappointed. I've also tried their prime rib which is a special every other Friday of the week and for $30, you get two sides and a soup. I was impressed with what they served and everything was cooked to standard. (Which is hard to find nowadays) Too clean and well kept to be a hole in the wall but with mountains on one side and the ocean in a tucked cove on the other, Pacifica is definitely worth the trip.

    Well, I finally got to try the Prime Rib Special at Kenny's Cafe…read more Wow! I have been to fine dining steakhouses. Kenny's Cafe served up a delicious 12-oz cut of prime rib + veggies and fries for under $30. I asked for medium rare, and I got medium rare. A bowl of soup included.
