Cheeseburger
Stella B.

This deli is small but we wanted to try it out. So a we went, there is a small patio and a small indoor seating. We placed our order and got our food choices. It is clean and there are many things to try. The attendant was friendly and helpful and we not only enjoyed the affordable menu but the food was great. I am pleased to have found this place close to my daughters home.

Brooklyn Reubens with macaroni salad
Lucy D.

My dad was craving a reuben sandwich, on a sidequest we came across Sunrise Deli. My dad ordered their Brooklyn Reuben with macaroni salad, my spouse ordered the same, and I went with half sandwich & soup, chicken salad on sourdough and chicken tortilla soup. Everything from the service to the ambiance but specifically the food, were perfection! We are so happy to have come across Sunrise Deli, 10/10 highly recommend!

Husband ordered the beef bbq sandwich and my plate was the Philly cheese steak sandwich. I recommend both!
Liz S.

The food was hot and delicious. They serve a generous side of French fries snd the ranch dressing is absolutely delicious. Both of our meals were $30. The music they played was okay. The music playing in the kitchen was better than what we heard. The service was good. Definitely coming back!

Rainy day in SD, this spot is perfect for a bowl of chicken tortilla soup! I was taken aback at how delicious this meal was. The staff was so friendly and the inside is so cute, I absolutely recommend this spot for anyone looking for a good lunch spot. I got the medium and it was a great price and huge serving! I will absolutely be back. Thank you Fernanda and Fernando!

Pastrami Dip and Fries
Crissy A.

My bf got the Buffalo Chicken sandwich and fries. Usually our favorite place to order takeout. Ordering over the phone was easy and the staff was very friendly and aware we wanted extra crispy fries. She said it would be ready 20 minutes and my bf got there in 15 minutes. Another 15 minutes went by, total wait 30 minutes, before receiving order. The plates look good but the fries were not crispy, very soggy until I crisped it up at home before eating. The pastrami sandwich looked delicious and was excited to dip it! Nope , the dip was too salty! Unfortunately, both of our meals were super salty. Total disappointment! Dipping the fries in ranch, we were able eat a few. But could not fix the salty pastrami. To be fair, this is the first time from our many visits that we disliked our meal from Sunrise Deli.

Disgusting service and food

I couldn't be more disappointed as to how bad this place has become it used to be the best place to get a sandwich and soup in San Diego. Service was horrible, food was disgusting, and I had to ask 3 times if they put my extra pickles. I ordered 3 different meals and was charged separately for my fries , food, and drink instead of being charged for a combo. When asked the cashier she replied with a smart comment like it was my problem for noticing that I was being charged. The cherry on top of it all is i didn't get a single pickle in any of my meals even tho I asked, paid for, and reasked as I need pickles to eat with my sandwich.

BLT with Mac n cheese side
Esther M.

The service here is always very friendly and helpful! I recently tried the blt with extra bacon and a side of Mac n cheese. The sandwich was toasted to perfection, crunchy fresh lettuce and juicy tomatoes :) the Mac n cheese was super duper cheesy but kind of plain-tasting. Not my fav Mac n cheese but to each his/her own! The food options here are amazing , enjoy

the food here is so good and fresh i definitely recommend coming here. the parking is small though.

I can't remember a single thing I've eaten at Sunrise Deli. I dined at Sunrise a few times a year, every year, from 2011 to 2019 - call it twenty meals of my own plus samples of whatever my wife ordered - and still, I'm drawing a blank. Had I tried anything that knocked my socks off or that was disgusting, such meals would have stuck in my mind. Did I have breakfast? A sandwich? Some sort of plate lunch? No se, and that says a lot about the place. But wait, let me check my photos. OK, according to my files, one time, I had some sort of cheeseburger and some fries at Sunrise Deli and... nope, even though I'm looking at the picture, I don't remember eating it. This is pointless. All I can tell you is that in my experience, if you eat at Sunrise Deli, you won't have a memorably good experience, but it won't be notably bad, and I guess that's not nothing.

I've lived down the street for years but never tried this place. I was running errands on the same street so, when I got hungry I decided to try something new. Very nice people working here. I ordered pancakes, eggs and bacon. The pancakes looked really pretty but lacked flavor and were dry. The syrup wasn't very good either. I don't know what brand they use but I didn't like it. The bacon didn't look or taste fresh. Bacon wasn't bad (it rarely ever is IMO) but I'm thinking maybe reheated from the previous day. The eggs needed seasoning. I'm not surprised though because many places don't season the eggs. I'm glad I tried it out but sunrise didn't wow me to go back for anything different. I do love the yellow interior! It's very inviting and felt like a happy place. I also love the large menu display. I could see it without my glasses!

Mickey kids meal.

Love this place ! So fast (for what I order) and food doesn't disappoint! The energy from the people behind the counter makes you want to come back! The outdoor seating is amazing and the take out is just like sitting in. I have not been disappointed any time I've come, and will continue to come back.

We have been to Toasted probably 5 or so times since moving to La Mesa and love it! We definitely…read morerecommend it. AMBIANCE: The ambiance is very nice. The restaurant is cute and not too noisy. There is an indoor and outdoor area. SERVICE: We have never had a bad service experience at Toasted. Our waitress today in particular was great. My niece wanted a mimosa without alcohol, and she happily accommodated and even suggested adding some soda water to make it more like a mimosa. FOOD & DRINKS: In the many times we have been there, we have had the following; DRINKS: -Mimosa Flight: Too be honest, I did not love the flight. The Prickly Pear was my favorite, but I tend to prefer sweeter drinks, and I would say overall, the cocktails are not super sweet there, which for many people is a plus (just not me). -Lavender Cocktail - Good but also not super sweet -Chai Latte - I have had it hot and iced and liked it both ways FOOD: -Santa Fe Scramble - My favorite dish I have tried to date. Our waitress compared it to tortilla soup in an egg dish, and I would say that's a new perfect description except I think this is way better than tortilla soup -Denver Scramble - Very good and would order again -Breakfast Sammy - Good. A typical breakfast sandwich, so if that's what you're in the mood for, get this. That being said, I wouldn't say there is anything that sets this breakfast sandwich apart from others. -Stuffed French Toast - Good but not my favorite. Would not order again. -Fried Chicken Benny - Good but not a standout that I would order again -Breakfast Quesadilla - Just okay. Nothing was wrong with it, but I would not get it again and would do the Santa Fe Scramble over this. -Sliders - My favorite lunch item. They are the same as the old Sammy's sliders (this location used to be a Sammy's) -Red Velvet Pancakes - Good but very rich -Chocolate Chip Pancakes - Great and very fluffy with excellent texture Overall, even though not every food item or drink is a hit for me personally, that's the case at pretty much any restaurant, and there are some great items and the food, service, and ambiance are great

Great bottomless service, our waitress filled up my glass as I drank which was amazing lol. I…read moreordered the chicken and pancakes which all together I rate a 6.5/10. - Comes with 3 THICK pancakes and three southern fried chicken tender with "hot" syrup. - Syrup tasted like regular syrup mixed with hot sauce which I wasn't really feelin. I think it would've been better with hot honey and syrup on the side? - Again these pancakes are THICK and flavor was "meh" so you prolly won't even finish them all and you might need to ask for extra syrup (like myself) I honestly think the chicken and French toast would've been a better option and I might ask for that accommodation next time if I order the same thing (I prolly won't, I like to try new tings hehe). Overall pretty restaurant with great natural Lighting but it still needs to prove itself in the flavor department.

The highlight for me was building my own bowl with the freshest ingredients: baby spinach, baby arugula, hot honey chicken, pickled cabbage, tomato, pickled cucumbers, and avocado. The hot honey lemon vinaigrette was perfect--delicious with just the right balance of heat and sweetness. I also tasted the chilaquiles verde, which were absolutely delicious--fresh, flavorful, and cooked just right. Overall, everything tasted incredibly fresh and well-prepared. They also have a great drink selection, including iced tea and Mexican Coke. I highly recommend visiting on a weekday before the lunch rush. I'll definitely be back!

As soon as we walked in, I loved the vibe, from the wooden walls, to the pictures hanging in the bathroom, to the hanging indoor plants. However, Madi fell short in their service and food. We were told to wait 30 minutes for our table. Ended up only being 20 which was a nice surprise! However, as soon as we sat down, we were not welcomed in, no one to explain the menu, no one to offer water, and no one to even take our order. And when we finished, no one to offer the bill, and to-go boxes were all self-serve. Just seemed like there was no urgency! Everytime we needed something, we had to flag someone down, which even that took some effort. Automatic 4% Hospitality charge too. The food was fine with some unique flavor combinations. My G.O.A.T sandwich came with a wonderful sticky and spicy jam, but overall it was slightly dry and bready, the swiss cheese could have been meltier, and the egg yolk was already broken. The Greek Fries came with a bold tahini sauce, but even then, the chicken was dry and the fries were not crispy at all, but floppy, soggy, and chewy. Maybe we came on a bad day. Maybe we just ordered the wrong things. But I really am trying to give Madi the chance it obviously deserves!

The ONLY reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 (and I'm usually a 5-star/1-star girlie) is that we haven't seen Cari, one of our favorite servers, in either of our last couple of visits. Over a year ago now, Cari stepped UP when I became faint and almost passed out on Nate's front deck. It was a hot day, I am BAD at drinking water but great at sweating; and as I stood up, I turned paper white and the world got fuzzy. Cari swooped in the moment she saw what was happening - making sure I was safely lying down, getting me hand sanitizer for my forehead and a wet cloth for the back of my neck (rapid cooling!), and orange juice for my fluid imbalance. I'm so SO glad Cari was there to take better care of me than I take of myself. I miss our nerdy conversations, and hope she'll be back soon!
