Blueberry danish pancakes
Jesse P.

Pretty damn solid spot. These blue berry danish pancakes hit the spot. Very clean family friendly environment. Good coffee, good food. Next time would remove the hard granola on top, but overall very satisfied with the meal and very reasonably priced! Awesome local joint.

*Hot Tip* Get on the waitlist as soon as you can here on Yelp and you will be waiting a lot less time. I put my name on the waitlist when we were on our way and by the time we parked and walked over we were next to be seated. The service was perfect. I mean these guys are efficient! The waiter came by with waters, asked for additional drinks and was such a genuine server. No bells and whistles, but polite and professional. I like it. My receipt says Nathan F as his name. The place is small, but has additional outdoor seating to the side. Quaint, I'd call it. Food: Yum. Everything came quickly and hot, the expeditor made sure we had everything before he left, also great service. I ordered the Sunshine Pancake breakfast with the chicken sausage. Great freaking choice. Baby Daddy got the chicken fried steak, and the Munchkins Pancakes for the little one. My eggs were a little runnier than I like, but I'm hard to please when it comes to my egg order, so I gotta try the eggs over medium to see if they can make it. The chicken sausage was tasty, a good little kick to them, but I wish I had tried their regular sausages too. The star of the meal- the gawsh darn pancakes. Baby daddy said it was a little too sweet for him but they were fluffy disks of pure perfection to me. Sweet, a little crisp on the outside but still oh so fluffy! Chicken fried steak was in my baby daddy's words "great." He really enjoyed the sausage gravy, and he rarely finds a tasty breakfast gravy. The kids meal was okay. It had a strip of bacon, pancakes and choice of drink. She chose chocolate milk. Highly recommend.

Susie was our server on Sunday and she was so very kind and efficient. The wait to be seated was long but totally worth it! The food was incredible and didn't take long at all to get our order. The hostesses were very kind as well. The restaurant was clean and the vibe was good. Really appreciated the service environment and good food.

Morning after brunch with the girls didnt disappoint. The menu has so much so we ordered a few things to share. French toast, waffles, pancakes, sausage and gravy. Everyone loved the meal! We sat outside and enjoyed chatting it up and drinking breakfast cocktails and coffees, matcha. All the food was hot and fresh, and with so many of us ordering we were pleasantly surprised that all the orders were accurate. Staff was super friendly and helpful. She made a few recommendations and we went with it. The menu has options for everyone so if you worried about your picky friends/family, they are bound to find something they like here. We were seated pretty quickly and the food came out within a decent time frame. We arent from PHX but we definitely would recommend.

Huevos rancheros, Country Benedict, Coconut Stuffed French toast

Had brunch on a Saturday, but it was a short wait with quick service. We tried the huevos rancheros and country benedict. The food was amazing and it had a fun vibe

Cinnamon Roll
Charlie L.

A couple of years on, this is still my favorite breakfast place. I've settled in a rotation of my favorites. Someone suggests we meet for breakfast, I say let's go to Sunshine. There are a couple of servers here who are phenomenal and I'm willing to wait a little longer to be seated in their sections. Most recent visit was a birthday breakfast and I got a free cinnamon roll which was huge and delicious. It's a bit noisy inside and always bustling so keep that in mind. The decor is cheerful and bright. This place is hoppin' on weekend mornings so plan accordingly.

Large dining area (with more seating on patio)

My wife and I joined our friends for brunch today, and they suggested the Sunshine Breakfast Bar as a new option. We were able to go onto Yelp to place ourselves on the waitlist in advance, and then we headed out there a bit later with a minimal wait. After checking in with the host stand upon arrival, we found ourselves on the covered patio a few minutes later. The parking, however, was a bit more challenging to find, but the further back we drove in the complex, the more open spaces were there. The Sunshine Breakfast Bar has a nice breakfast/brunch menu and a menu also for those wanting lunch. They are open daily from 7 AM to 2 PM. The restaurant is also now open (or so I think) at a new location in Tempe on Baseline. When signing up for the reward club, we were asked for our birthday; I assume there will be some sort of birthday freebie or deal when the time comes. You can also sign in on their website to learn about offers and see your profile. When I first logged in last night, it said I was a member since 2018, so I'm assuming that this restaurant got its member list from another restaurant at one point since today was my first visit there. The other highlights for our meal today were that we received fast service, the food was very tasty, and they have a dog-friendly patio. I ordered the Classic Pancake which consisted of two sweet cream pancakes topped with butter, syrup on the side, and sprinkled with powdered sugar. My wife ordered a Create Your Own Omelette, which provided us three eggs and a choice of 1 cheese item plus any 3 veggie or meat options. She chose cheddar cheese, tomatoes, and onions. Her meal also came with homestyle potatoes and bakery style sour dough toast. We split both meals in half so that we both could try two dishes. We loved both meals! You can go to https://www.sunshinebreakfastbar.com and enter your e-mail address or phone number on the "Become a VIP" pop-up window. You can also sign up with your Facebook or Google account. Signing up will give you updates on exclusive events, secret menus, special offers/discounts, loyalty rewards & more. Also on the website, you can find their menu, order items online, catering options, another place to join their waitlist, and more. We may just be hooked, so we'll plan on going back again soon!

Been multiple times. Got food. Coffee and drinks are amazing. They have indoor and outdoor seating with misters/fans. The servers are friendly, check back on you and prompt. Hard to beat that. The inside is a bright color. Booth or 1/2 booths with chairs.

Huevas rancheros
Nancy W.

It's been year and we came back again for breakfast. We're on the way back to CA. Vanilla Lattes. Kids breakfasts and I had the really good biscuits and gravy, and Anber had the eggs Benedict. She liked it but she likes bacon and sliced tomato on hers. And it was not on the menu. We like this restaurant and will be back again in 2026. Parking is limited. It's a small strip mall. Also something in the restaurant by the kitchen smells of sewer as you Walk to the restrooms now and that's kinda gross., idk why.

Super cute way to be greeted!
Pinky N.

Our sons were playing in a soccer tournament at Reach 11 Sports Complex. We had some time before our flight back home so we opted to look for a breakfast spot. We checked out Yelp and found the Sunshine Breakfast Bar was 5 minutes away! We were impressed from the get-go because it was super busy! Thankfully we only had to wait about 10 minutes. Walking in we noticed what a fun place it seemed to be - upbeat vibe and lots of people! We sat down and were able to order pretty quickly as we had had time to look at the menu beforehand. Everything tasted great! The eggs were cooked perfectly (over hard with the yolks broken), the ham steaks were not too salty and the pancakes were light and fluffy! Not sure if we will ever be back, but mostly because we are from California. Buuut, if we are ever in Phoenix again, we will be sure to stop by the Sunshine Breakfast Bar!

The American breakfast and the blueberry bacon pancakes, absolute delicious!
Stephanie M.

The place is too cute,good vibes. Staff was so nice and the food is EXCELLENT! Kudos to the kitchen staff. I will be back! Our server Michelle was too sweet!

Earl Grey tea
Kristina R.

Excellent service. Ava was friendly and efficient. The Reuben we top notch. Generous portion of tender meat and thick marble rye. The Earl Grey blend was very smooth and flavorful. Upbeat music on the covered patio was nice: Heading home to KY but would come back if I could!

Sat on the patio which is fully shaded, which is a blessing in July in Phoenix. It was a little warm at first since the breeze was blowing the misters the wrong direction (rude), but still totally manageable. A fan or two wouldn't hurt, but once the breeze shifted, it actually felt fantastic. Definitely give it a chance, even in the heat. Nathan was our server and he crushed it--friendly, attentive, checked in often without hovering. Basically the kind of server you want everywhere but rarely get. Hello Sunshine - orange vodka, Cointreau, orange juice, Sprite. This one? Orange to the max. Bubbly, bright, citrus-on-citrus love in the best way. Gave Orangina-meets-mimosa vibes, and I would honestly choose this over a mimosa. I could've gone full "drink an entire pitcher to myself" mode. Would sip again. And again. And again. Peanut Butter Espresso - Skrewball, cold brew, whipped cream, chocolate chips, half and half. Dessert in a glass. Thick, rich, chocolatey, and the cold brew was actually solid. But, and this is a peanut butter-sized but, the Skrewball got totally lost. One of our favorite spirits and you'd never know it was in there. A drink having a midlife crisis. Sunshine Signature Bloody Mary - I chose spicy, duh. Went with green chile vodka (again--duh), and it comes decked out with bacon and blue cheese stuffed olives. The chile vodka hit like a freight train... not my favorite. Sent it back for regular vodka with extra heat, and Nathan came through like a hero. Take two was absolutely dialed in--spice, flavor, garnish game were all on point. My only note would be the remake was just a basic bloody, no bacon or blue cheese olives, which I was looking forward to. Not a complaint, just a bummer. Breakfast Mule - cucumber for the husband (as per usual), with ginger beer, lime, and mint. I'm not a cucumber fan and I still liked it. Gave top-tier cucumber lime Gatorade vibes if Gatorade put on a blazer and went to brunch. Light, refreshing, and dangerously easy to drink. Total sleeper hit. If I couldn't get the Hello Sunshine, this would be my second choice. Chicken Fried Steak - two eggs (over hard), homestyle potatoes, and sourdough (we subbed a biscuit and added an over-medium egg for me). Eh. It wasn't terrible, but it didn't live up to the hype. The biscuit was tasty--fluffy and just a little overdone--but the steak and gravy felt like they came from a school cafeteria. Potatoes looked good but phoned it in. Not a single trace of seasoning, though it may have been waved in the general direction of the salt shaker. Menu overall was basic. Nothing wrong with that if you execute well, but it missed the mark. No dish jumped out as worth coming back for. Unless we're already at Costco, this probably isn't a repeat stop. Drinks and service? Great. But food-wise, it was more meh than meal.

The interior is pretty long with a large number of seating inside the building so we had no trouble getting seated right away by the hostess. We decided on food relatively quickly due to previous experience with the business, however, our waiter never came around to take our orders or even give us water at the table. We saw one girl with dyed hair who unassumingly could have been our waiter since she was in our section but only worked with one particular table and ran to the back after each time, but never addressed our table or came by. We eventually had to flag a different waiter down who was able to help us place the order and service us for the rest of our visit, she also informed us that this other "Waiter" was supposed to help us but she wasn't sure why she never made an attempt to do so after having us wait 20 mins and other tables were being serviced. We ordered Flordian French Toast and Elote Breakfast Burrito (plus a couple sides and drink) which were both really good, and filling. Prices weren't too bad for what we ordered and was able to take our mind off of the rather long wait to get helped. Not sure if we'll come back to this particular location again, but it was nice trying the restaurant out another time.

Perfect when I'm half awake on the weekend. The weekends can get pretty busy but there is a good amount of parking available.

One thing to know is there is no table service. You order at the counter and they have a lot of choices so if you have never been there it's hard to decide while other people are waiting behind you. I came with my mom and we were craving pancakes so again didn't get any eggs which is what they are known for and their breakfast pizzas. So I'll come back to try those. We split buttermilk pancakes and a cinnamon roll. They do have real maple syrup but of course they up charge for the good stuff. The pancakes are ok but don't taste like buttermilk pancakes. They looked good but it definitely tasted like a mix and not a good one. They were way overly sweet. They weren't terrible but just not great. 4/10 on the pancake scale. The cinnamon roll also tasted like a store bought premade roll. It was also kind of burnt and didn't taste like anything. The only good thing was the coffee which I was highly skeptical about because it was serve yourself from a carafe. But it was good and strong. Nice views of the mountains and the patio is dog friendly. I want to like this place because it's in my neighborhood so next time I'll try the eggs dishes. Also they have several veggie/vegan selections so I'll come back for those too and to bring my dog.

The Hilton Tapatio Cliffs Resort has a beautiful setting with incredible mountain views, great…read morewalking areas, and a classic Arizona resort feel. The staff was friendly throughout our stay, and the overall property has a relaxing atmosphere that makes it easy to enjoy the sunshine and scenery. We booked an upgraded suite with a separate bedroom and TV room, which gave us plenty of space to spread out. While the layout was great, the room itself could use some updates. The bathroom fixtures were older--the Kohler toilet didn't flush well and was a bit noisy, and the tub/shower combo had rounded sides that made it tricky to stand comfortably. The shower water also never got fully hot. The room had a slightly musty smell, and the carpets would benefit from a deep cleaning. The balcony screen door didn't close tightly, which let a few flies in, and access to the second floor required two sets of stairs since there's no elevator in that section. Even with those issues, the resort's location, views, and overall vibe made the stay enjoyable. With some room refreshes and a bit more maintenance attention, this could easily be a standout property. The setting alone is worth experiencing.

I was looking for a good staycation while also earning American Airlines AAdvantage miles and…read moreloyalty points to maintain my status for another year. I found a great AAdvantage Hotel deal at the Hilton Phoenix Tapatio Cliffs Resort and booked it. While it was a great success of a visit in terms of AAdvantage miles and loyalty points, my actual experience at the hotel itself was less to be desired due to the customer service and a big snafu on their part. I also have Hilton Gold status, though as I booked the hotel through a third party site (AAdvantage Hotels), I could see the stay and the stay history in my Hilton app, but I did not receive any benefits for staying there, which was fine as I didn't expect any anyone. I arrived in person to check in and already reserved and prepaid for a King 1 Bedroom Standard Suite, which had a nice view and reasonably spacious room (but not too much larger than a regular room at another hotel). The room was certainly not upgraded though there was parking available right in front of the entrance. I did not receive anything else at check-in nor did it appear that I'd get my regularly complimentary water. I did pay the daily resort charge which includes high speed internet access, access to the Falls Water Village, an hour at the tennis/pickleball court, an hour at the afternoon golf practice facility, two hours for a mountain bike rental, 20% off seasonal spa services, and 15% off select golf apparel. While I didn't use it, I had easy view and access to the Falls Water Village where you could lounge and play all day on their sun-marked terrace where you could find free-form pools, hot tubs, and cabanas. They even have a 138-foot enclosed water slide. When I checked out, I was told that a bill would be sent to me shortly since I did it on the app early, and when I received the bill, there was a charge for my room at the restaurant at the top of the hill called A Different Point of View. The catch is that I never went to eat there during my stay (or at any onsite restaurant since I live in the area and had my meals offsite). I reached out to the hotel who insisted that I did go there to eat. I promised them I didn't eat anywhere onsite and that they need to look at the receipt and see if it actually has my room number. They confirmed it did and that this meant I ate there. I told them to find my name on it and let me know if it was on there. After several more back and forth conversations, they confirmed it wasn't me and would remove the charge. They then mistakenly charged me double. Then they removed one charge, but it took more than a week before they removed the other charge. By the end of the exchanges, it felt like they were blaming me for their own mistake. While the resort is aged and rather pleasant, there certainly are training issues regarding the customer service offered at this property. I do not plan on staying here again in the future.
