    For two people. Ridiculous.
    Stacy G.

    I've spent an hour since my visit trying to think of a worse dining experience. I'm at a loss. Imagine an extremely confused Waffle House meets an extravagantly priced prime breakfast spot. None of this can end well. We were ushered to sit at a dirty table upon entering. The buffet was closed (I'm sure for COVID related cause) and I have a feeling that would have been the only way to eat here. We sat down and the waitress wiped the table with us seated which ended with my boyfriend wiping the crumbs from his shirt. But wait...it gets worse. Our waitress was definitely on her game, like a really high strung game. She confused our order a bit and we ended up with two of the same waffles (mistaking our too/also for two due to the slight language barrier). I ordered the hash brown deluxe and my boyfriend ordered the ONE bacon waffle and the Irish Omelette. The TWO waffles came out first and were ok. The bacon was in the middle and not around the outer edges. We also did not get the side items that were listed on the menu as accompaniments with the waffle. This is the part that stabbed my soul....my "hash brown deluxe" was so far from special it was ridiculous. It had a Waffle House, smothered covered feel for three times the price. Soggy, 4 small pieces of broccoli and tasteless. I was so absolutely let down. The only good part was the plain white toast. My boyfriend did not get what he ordered. He wanted the Irish Omelette but very obviously got a Philly Cheese Omelette. He said it was good but not pleased about the mistake. Our bill arrived very very very quickly (refer the the high strung state of our waitress) and we seriously almost had heart attacks. THE BILL!!! 49.55!!! (See photo.) We have lived downtown for years and cannot recall any breakfast that was this price and VOID OF ADULT BEVERAGES! The final total for two people and no alcohol was $65.00 (tip included). Please understand, we would have said something but the waitress was very nice. I have sent an email using the website at the bottom of the receipt. We shall see where that goes. In conclusion, run away. Far far away and as fast as possible. Not worth the time, money or anything else. We will never be back.

    Large interior. Breakfast buffet on the weekends and holidays. Soup and salad bar during the week.

    I noticed this restaurant when I was in search of a late breakfast. Located adjacent to Chatham Parkway, it is far from the maddening tourist crowd of Downtown Savannah. I noticed the clientele consisted of local employees and law enforcement personnel. It is a large restaurant , with a buffet bar located in the middle of the two dining rooms. A large private parking lot is an advantage due to its location. Along with a full menu, the restaurant provides a soup and salad bar Monday - Friday, with a breakfast buffet on the weekends and holidays. I ordered a short stack of pancakes, bacon and soft scrambled eggs while I sat at one of the kitchen counters on a stool. Service was quick with the pancakes served hot, fluffy and delicious. Probably the best tasting pancakes in Savannah. Bacon was served crispy and the eggs scrambled soft as ordered. There are also lunch specials, with a meat and three sides costing around nine dollars. Nothing fancy here , but great food at a fair price is provided.

    Atmosphere - good. The restaurant is just a few miles off the highway in a small strip mall. The place is bright and seemed clean. The place was packed at lunchtime, with what appeared to be local patrons. There is a lot of tables, booths and a small counter. Service- good. Our server was pleasant and attentive Food - good. The menu is pretty big and varied. There is a small salad bar as well. My wife and I split a turkey club sandwich. It was average in size and tasted fine. I also had the chicken enchilada soup, which was tasty. Overall - good. The prices are reasonable and the service good.

    We were looking for something simple and found this to be the perfect spot. I love diners, and this place had exactly what I was looking for. Ambience is typical diner, and the menu is varied. They also offer a soup and salad bar. Our server was pleasant and attentive. My husband and I split a club sandwich and chips and he got a bowl of soup. The sandwich came quickly and was tasty. You could tell many of the patrons were locals, so you know you are getting a bargain.

    Pre breaded chicken fingers

    Never order their chicken fingers. They are fake and rubbery. I wish they would go back to the real ones. They do have a good breakfast and lunch buffet.

    Severely undercooked eggs

    Not entirely sure how this place received a 4.2 stars over the course of time that they have been open. This place should be rated at a max of three or below stars. Overall food was subpar, orange juice tasted like metal, and the cooks were sneezing and wiping their face with their arms/hands throughout the time that they were cooking. On top of that they were also eating french fries on the line while cooking while never once changing out their gloves. Lastly, I had to almost fight tooth and nail to get eggs taken off of our check because they were severely undercooked.

    Our Amtrak train was delayed leaving Savannah and we needed breakfast. A worker at the station suggested Sunrise Restaurant. I ordered the Irish Omelette with hash browns. It was very good. I'd eat here again.

    Two things. First, when its my time, I want to go out how Paul Yao the owner and founder of Sunrise restaurants, went out. "He had his dancing shoes on and poker chips in his pocket," Yao died of a heart attack on an Alaskan cruise after dancing the cha-cha and playing a hand of poker. I'm thinking Mr. Yao understood that sometimes a guy waiting for his car to be worked on just wants a good, diner cheeseburger at 9 in the morning. Second, Sunrise should run a shuttle up and down Chatham Parkway offering lifts to all of us stuck waiting in the service departments of Chatham Parkway Subaru, Chatham Parkway Toyota, Kia of Savannah, and Chatham Parkway Lexus. The Toyota place was nice enough, offering popcorn, coffee and mysterious oily donuts--guaranteed indigestion when the maintenance bill comes due. So I picked my way down Chatham Parkway that has crosswalks but no sidewalks to grab a bite at Sunrise. The breakfast bar was tempting on a Friday morning but I knew what I wanted. Just a burger. With stuff on it. Like grilled onions and mushrooms. And bacon. Perfection. Since I'm trying to keep my life simple, I suppose I can go now. Maybe not as dramatically and finally as Paul Yao but the Toyota people did put a new battery in my key fob.

The greeting from our arrival to seating was prompt and very courteous. We got suggestions from the wait staff and started our experience. They have an extensive cocktail and wine list. We started with a drink called Southern Hospitality and their branded Old Fashioned. Both drinks were exceptional. We accompanied that with Grilled Octopus, which was sensational. Very hard not to make it chewy. Great char and sauce that accompanied it. For entrees, we did the Perloo, an amazing interpretation, and a swordfish. Both dishes were immaculately prepared and perfectly sized. We chose a bottle of Loss and Lehn, something we had never tried before but recommended based on what we had ordered. It matched perfectly with both dishes. We also choose items from the pick 3 menu to accompany our entrees. We finished with the best bread Pudding we have ever had nd french press coffee. The price was very reasonable considering the quality and the service, and should not be missed next time you are in Savanah.

Both dishes were very well prepared and felt thoughtfully put together without trying too hard. The fish on both plates was cooked correctly, portions were solid, and flavors worked well together. With my wife's gluten and dairy allergy, plus my tree nut allergy, Alpha-Gal, and diabetes, we're usually a decent stress test for a kitchen. Staff handled questions professionally and didn't make ordering feel complicated. Atmosphere strikes a nice balance--upscale enough for a date night or business dinner, but still relaxed and comfortable. Service was attentive without hovering. Good for: dates, business meals Probably not ideal for: small children

It honestly reminds me of that 'Country Greek' hospitality where nobody leaves hungry. The food is just phenomenal. That Fried Chicken is easily some of the best in the South, perfectly crispy and seasoned. I couldn't get enough of the Sweet Potato Soufflé and the Creamed Corn, which was so fresh and rich. The Macaroni and Cheese was exactly how it should be, thick and flavorful with that perfect baked crust. Every bowl they brought out was delicious, from the Butter Beans to the Flaky Biscuits. If you look at the photos, the sheer amount of food is mind-blowing. It's like a massive family feast every single day. Eating on Jones Street in such a historic spot makes the whole thing feel like a core memory. It is absolutely worth the wait.

The restaurant is communal style and only opened from 11am-2pm. There are about 8 oval shaped tables total that can seat approximately 8-10 people per table. I believe they said they can seat 75 total. When you go inside, at each table they'll have sweet tea and plenty of dishes of food for you to choose from already on the table. The options included fried chicken, sweet cornbread, biscuits, green beans, black eyed peas, Mac n cheese, squash, okra, dirty rice, collard greens, potatoes au gratin, Lima beans, pulled pork, beef stew, mashed sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes, potato salad, and maybe a few more options. You pass the dishes around the table and load your plate up until your heart is content. The best items to me were the fried chicken, sweet cornbread, and peach cobbler. The dirty rice was undercooked and there were hard pieces. Everything else was just sustenance. If you're a vegetarian, your options will be limited to sides only. You might be able to have squash, Mac n cheese, and maybe potato salad. Many of the items are cooked with meat or made with beef or chicken stock. It's $35 flat per person. Based on the 2 hour and 15 minute wait, I don't think the food was worth it. If the wait was 30 mins to 45 mins, maybe.

The online menu photos looked incredible (though I still side-eye those famous PB&J wings--maybe next time!). We chose the Treylor Park Double Wide Diner for breakfast and were thrilled we did. Pro tip: Head there early on a Sunday morning! Alcohol can't be served until after 11 a.m., so the place is surprisingly quiet and easy to get into--no crowds or long waits. We were seated right away, and our server was incredibly friendly and attentive from start to finish. My husband went for The Chupacabra--a massive chimichanga-style breakfast burrito stuffed with eggs, sausage, onions, cheddar cheese, fresh pico de gallo, Sriracha, and chipotle crème fraîche, served with cheesy grits on the side. I ordered the Brunch Nachos, which sounded fun as an "appetizer"... big mistake (or the best kind of mistake!). It was a towering plate of waffle fries loaded with cheddar cheese, bacon, sausage gravy, fried chicken, and topped with sunny-side-up eggs. Both portions were enormous and absolutely delicious--we had to pace ourselves to make a dent in them! Everything tasted fantastic, with bold flavors and that perfect Southern comfort twist Treylor Park is known for. We're already planning to stop by again whenever we're near one of their locations--highly recommend for a fun, hearty breakfast!

    Ordered the Roasted Turkey BLT (Roasted turkey, Applewood smoked bacon, spring mix, tomatoes,…read moregarlic aioli on brioche, served w/ waffle fries). Good but basic. Space is cute, especially if you can get sat next to a window to people watch. Service was slow the day we were there but I dont think it was the server's issue, I think it was the kitchen. Our server was very nice and apologetic about it but it was odd because the place wasnt even half full at the time. I dont know if i would come back to this location, but I would be open to trying the others that they have.
