First, valet parking only. It's $6 cash. The process was atrocious. If you're coming from Shepard, the restaurant will be on your left. You need to get in the center lane to turn left into the valet area. However! It's likely that the center lane will have cars coming from the opposite direction who are trying to get AROUND the cars on the left side of the street who are stopped because they are waiting for valet! It was a mess that added an additional 15 minutes (glad I was EARLY!!) ANYHOO my party of 9 was seated in a room to the right with the sunflower wall, SO CUTE!! I got the watermelon sangria which was more sour than sweet. I also had the breakfast egg rolls, they were okay and the breakfast sushi was DELICIOUS! The star of the show was the catfish, cheese grits and collards. 6 of us got that. Those collards were so tender like they had been cooking for hours! The fish was good and you get 3 pieces. It is more cornmeal batter than flour (flour is my preference) My bro and bestie got the avocado toast and the French toast with a side of catfish and both were pleased. Everyone enjoyed! Great service as well! read more

The Sunrise House - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Houston, Texas

we went here for our final breakfast in houston and let me tell you this meal did not disappoint. a couple things to note before i dive into the food. book a reservation if you want to sit inside but note they fill up quick from a couple days before. they take walk ins but you may have to sit outside or at the bar if you're in a couple. complimentary croissants are brought to the table with a light honey butter glaze. these were amazing and i could see myself eating a whole tray to be honest. for my drink, i ordered a blueberry matcha with oat milk. it wasn't the best i've had, so id skip this. since i was going to be traveling for most of the day, i wanted something that wouldn't upset my stomach but would keep me full. i ordered the egg white omelet and was pleasantly surprised. definitely give this place a visit! read more

We came here on a Friday without a reservation and we were lucky to get a table for 2. To begin with, there is $6 valet parking which is pretty reasonable to avoid having to deal with finding street parking. The place itself is beautifully decorated and so Insta-worthy! I had the Toasted Almond Coconut Iced Latte which was really good. They brought us complimentary mini croissants which were SO good! For my entree I had The Frenchie Melt which I enjoyed. Overall it was a good experience! read more

Grits with a twist... Service and atmosphere: This place is very popular so I would recommend you to get a reservation. Service was very good. All staff were nice and friendly. The restaurant was well decorated and had good vibes. Food and drinks: No disappointment in any of the two areas. There were good food choices on the menu. All dishes that we ordered were served timely and were nicely plated. The egg rolls had flavourful filling and the pastry had perfect crunch. The avocado toast was also full of flavour and tasted very good. Same goes for fried chicken sandwich. I also ordered side of Cajun grits which was delicious and I highly recommend you to try it. We didn't have any alcoholic beverages but the cocktails we saw on the tables looked great. Pricing: $$ - definitely worth it. read more

The birra breakfast tacos were delicious, we left with an additional order. The mimosas flight was tasty and filled with cute fruit accents. This is diffently on the return list to dine . Valet parking is available its $6 , it may go up but its Houston. Or you can ride and look for free parking and waste time missing out on a delicious meal. read more

Walked here for a random morning brunch and was treated to some excellent service by Edgar and some delicious food. The dining area was very nice and modern and felt pretty upscale for a brunch spot. Food-wise, my partner and I were particularly impressed by the honey croissant and pancakes. The birria tacos were generous in portion and very filling. I thought the chicken and waffle was just ok, lacking some of the crunchiness and flavor I would've expected. The dishes and plating were all nicely presented. Matcha Monday was a great bonus with half off matcha driinks which were well balanced and enjoyable. Service was a major standout as our server checked on us frequently and had such a positive vibe which enhanced our experience. read more

Found this place searching through yelp and was pretty excited to try. Set reservations for a Saturday at 8:30 am same day. Received a call about 10 mins later and was told system error no reservations. Ok, no worries, told the lady I'll just walk in and wait if need be, and was told they are reservations only. Thought that was weird especially since everywhere said differently but ok whatever. Well decided to test that theory the following week and just strolled on in on a Saturday morning at 8:45 and what do you know, no reservations needed. Bad start to my experience here but hey maybe there was a misunderstanding somewhere. Now the food. I got the strawberry matcha drink which was just ok. Chicken and waffles were good but I should have asked for the cream sauce on the waffles to be on the side. Complimentary croissants were DELICOUS! And my wives steak and eggs were a little underwhelming. The interior was beautiful and I can see why it's a very popular spot. I'm not sure if the food is worth going out of your way for but definitely worth a try. read more

Service here was one of the worst experiences I've had. My granddaughter wanted to celebrate her birthday here, but reservations were unavailable for the time we needed. We arrived at 11 AM hoping to get a table for 7 by noon. Around 12:30 PM, a table outside -- literally next to the parking lot in 85-degree weather. I asked for inside seating instead. After declining the outdoor tables, we were told they would "try" to seat us inside, even if it meant splitting us into two tables. Fine. By 1:15 PM, I checked again and was told we probably wouldn't be seated until close to closing time. No one should have to wait from 11 AM to 4 PM for a table. We waited over two hours for nothing. This is clearly a reservations-only place, and they should make that clear upfront. Total waste of time. read more

Came for Friday brunch/breakfast with friends! Our server let us know about the Friday/today's special which was 9.99 continental breakfast. This included pancake stack, protein of your choice, eggs, potatoes or grits! I got the turkey bacon and grits and it was AMAZING! The food was sooooo good! The ambiance was very warm and friendly. I'll definitely be back due to the great service and amazing food! read more

From beginning to end the service and food quality was A+. I'm a deviled egg fan so I judge them pretty harshly as most people only averagely make them. These ok the other hand were fantastic. They were seasoned perfectly and lightly fried. My power bowl was also tasty and filling. I had a taste of my friend's salt n props chicken and it was great. I'd definitely order that when I want a heavier meal Option. All in all the food was seasoned to perfection and nicely plated. Our server was attentive enough. We went prior to a Houston's noon game and it was already pretty full in the early AM hour. By the time we left around 11:00 it was packed out, so definitely make a reservation. read more

Visited Sunrise House in Houston while in town from Los Angeles and met a friend there for brunch. This place is absolutely beautiful and very Instagram worthy, but thankfully the food matched the vibe! Everything was out of this world delicious. The greens, catfish, fried lobster, and drinks were all amazing and full of flavor. The servers were attentive, friendly, and made us feel so welcome. Such a great experience from start to finish. I will definitely be back as soon as possible! read more

I came here today before flying out. Since it was a Monday we didn't think it would be crowded so we didn't make a reservation but thankfully we lucked up eventhough it was pretty busy. They brought out croissants which were so good. I ordered the salt and pepper wings with a side of pancakes. I just expected to get one pancake but it came with three. The pancakes were so good and flavorful. The wings were too salty for me; the potatoes that come it it were also very salty. Our waitress was nice and gave us good recommendations. I'd come again and order the pancakes & something else. read more

Our waitress was phenomenal, even though she was busy she made sure all of her tables were properly addressed and checked on periodically. As always food was delightful!! Had the Sushi for the first time, pretty good. Couldn't go wrong with the basic breakfast... w/ added salt-n-pepper chicken. (Didn't make the photo op) Lastly I had an Autumn Old Fashion and a Side car!! read more

We came here on a whim for a weekday (Wednesday) lunch. We love to try new places when we drive into Houston. First we noticed it is valet only, which is weird for such a small place, but it was only $6 so no biggie. I will say the parking lot needs a lot of work, especially for a place that wants to be considered elevated. When we entered the host was talking to the guest before us asking if she's wearing sweatpants because they aren't allowed. She wasn't and she showed him the were actual pants. He sat them and when he returned he saw us and told me they don't allow slides. I had on regular Birkenstock Sandals. Don't get me wrong he wasn't impolite or rude, but I definitely think for a weekday lunch this is a little much. The restaurant is nice but not nice to that scale. I can understand no visible under garments rules and such. We went to Hudson house to weeks ago, unplanned and not really dressed for it and had no issues. Anyway, he actually looked up what slides are and he agreed I wasn't wearing slides. Mind you the servers wear shoes and tennis shoes. One had on white tennis shoes with a black uniform. Now the service was 10/10 we had a young Hispanic male and he was amazing. He was very attentive and informative! I had the Golden deviled eggs. They were good but the egg white was a little rubbery, I wouldn't order again but they weren't horrible. The bacon on top was the star and the filling was good. I also have a mint cocktail that had gin and berries and it was very good. My friend ordered the catfish and grits. I will say it was really delicious. I rarely eat grits anywhere because they are always under seasoned. These were seasoned, creamy and cheesy. The catfish itself was really crispy and had a lot of flavor! I would definitely return for the food and service. The price was reasonable for the portions and flavor. read more

Came here while visiting Houston and overall had a really good experience! First off, shoutout to Stephon at the frontsuper welcoming and politely reminded us about the dress code (lol he definitely knew we just got off a flight from Florida). We made adjustments and appreciated how professional and friendly he was. Valet was only $6, which is a plus, and even with construction going on nearby, the team made parking easy. They had signage asking guests to pardon the dust, but it didn't take away from the experience. Our server, Danielle, was amazing great personality and gave solid recommendations. She suggested the Sunrise Continental with cheese grits, and that was a great choice. We ordered: * Sunrise Continental * Waffle Delights (red velvet waffle + chicken tenders) * Bayou City Shrimp & Grits The pancakes were the highlight soft, flavorful, and definitely worth it. Highly recommend! They also brought out complimentary honey butter croissants, which was a nice touch, but the bread was a little hard and the honey butter wasn't as sweet as expected. Pricing is on the higher side (about $18-$30 per entrée), but the ambiance and service help justify it. Overall, I'd come back great vibes, great service, and those pancakes sealed it for me! read more

A few things to note up front: - Highly recommend RSVP on weekends - Valet parking only - can pay cash, credit or Venmo - Seating is 2 hours from sitting down - not necessarily your RSVP time Location is super cute! We were there during Oct - Halloween decorations and waitstaff were in costumes. Our waitstaff was SO nice, helpful snd accommodating! Loved her! We shared the breakfast eggrolls, and ordered fried rice and the breakfast platter. Everything was SO DELISH! and portions are large. Breakfast drinks are so cute and wonderful. If you something off the menu, just ask. Will definitely go on the repeat list, because there were several things we still want to try. read more

This is definitely a girls brunch place so many picture opportunities, I loved every second they do get super busy I will feel encourage a reservation and arriving 10-15mins early to valet it should be $8-15(+) tip if you want to add, I would say the food was amazing and the drinks were great our service was fantastic,however there is a time limit to sit down ,the only thing they didn't offer us was the warm croissants ... it was something we were looking foward since we sat down and tried catching up before eating our meals since it was noted in other reviews,and menu. Overall the way the food tasted was so amazing job to the chefs. read more

I visited with my nieces, who are children, during their spring break. Upon arrival, we were not greeted in a welcoming manner. Instead, the host appeared uncomfortable, briefly left to consult with someone in the back, and then returned to inform us that we could not be seated due to the dress code. The reason given was that my nieces were wearing sweatshirts. Considering the weather was approximately 40°, they were dressed appropriately for the conditions. It was both surprising and frustrating to see children turned away for such a reason. While I understand that establishments may have dress code policies, applying them in this manner especially to minors felt unnecessary and unaccommodating. The overall interaction lacked professionalism and basic hospitality. As the host insisted on addressing my 12 yr old niece and I had to consistently redirect her and tell her she is a child talk to me. Also if you're going to enforce a dress code put NO SWEATSHIRTS not just pants on your website so that it's known prior to and it's enforced for kids as well! No worries we'll gladly take our business elsewhere. However, experiences like this deserve to be shared. There was nothing warm, inviting, or "sunny" about this place. The energy was quite the opposite. Very low vibrational and we'll never return! read more

My first time trying to come The Sunrise House, it was packed and I couldn't get a table without a reservation. This time, I arrived around 8:40 am and it was pretty easy to grab a table. Since I am an early riser, I appreciate a restaurant that serves non-breakfast food early. Things to consider: - busy times need reservations - only valet parking $6 and they will ask for additional tip - they have a dress code, no sandals - 20% gratuity on all tabs and they will ask for additional tip Upon leaving around 9:30ish, I saw the restaurant start to fill up. The service was quick but the inside space was somewhat tight. The food was flavorful and the portion sides were good. All the additional fees to consider ( valet parking, automatic gratuity), I wouldn't necessarily come back. read more

The Sunrise House - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Houston, Texas

My overall rating will be a 4. The food was amazing and the staff is very professional from the valet staff to the bussboys. The atmosphere is very relaxed and chilled. The music really creates a great space to be in with the service provided. I ordered the lamb chops, with some cheese grits and a side car. Honestly, that was the best tasting lamb I've had in awhile. I ordered it to be medium, it was a bit on the medium well side but still a great bite. The cheese grits OMG I could've eaten an entire pot of those I feel the organization has to get a little more prepared for large waits. If it's hours out before even putting your name on the list there has to be a place for those people to go, I witnessed over a dozen beautiful women standing in the rain due to no where to stand to wait. My reservations were for a certain time, but once my party was seated my timer started at my initial booking time and not when we were seated, so I wasn't a fan of that. Overall, great experience Happy Yelping read more

Restaurant vibe: Really cute place. Modern decor, well maintained. Heaters available for outdoor seating. Recommendation to make a reservation ahead of time. Not required but beneficial. Moderately priced food. Food ordered: Complimentary honey butter croissants served fresh and warm, Catfish and Grits (upgraded to shrimp and grits), with greens made with smoked turkey. Chicken tenders and waffles. Everything was hot and fresh. Out of a scale 1-5, I would rate it a 3 for these dishes. Service was great! Ask for J'Niya! We will come back for sure just because of her and the team of hosts, servers, parking attendants and other members. Everyone was kind professional and they work together as a team to ensure your experience is one to remember. Scale 1-5, 5! Valet parking is available for $6. Not certain where non valet is available. Overall, I would come back again to try other menu items. Pancakes looked really good, so maybe that next time! Thank you Sunrise for the experience! To future visitors, I'd love to read about your experience too! Enjoy! read more

This place is absolutely adorable- with plant walls with 3-d effect and impeccable service. The serve complimentary warm, delectable butter croissants with just the right amount of honey drizzle. We got the hangover burger and the continental breakfast which includes pancakes, choice of protein, eggs and grits or potatoes. I got the bacon extra crispy and it was thick, meaty and oh so good. Did someone say pancakes? Omg the butter was melting all over these and these are my new favorite pancakes. Soft with a little chew and a little crispy edge. It doesn't get more indulgent than this. Check out that butter drip though! read more

This place was trending on social media so I said let me try this place. If you're going on a weekend, I definitely recommend you making a reservation. I arrived and there's valet parking (I think $6) then I entered the restaurant. The aesthetics and decor hands down are amazing. The service was amazing as well. The provided complimentary croissants and they melted in your mouth. I ordered the sunrise continental breakfast -which comes with pancakes. That was the biggest flaw with my experience. I asked if the edges of my pancakes could be crispy prior to ordering and was assured they would be. However, after two attempts- I gave up as the pancakes were almost raw on both attempts. I enjoyed the sides that came with my breakfast :the turkey sausage, eggs, and sweet potatoes. It was just disappointing not being able to get the entire meal I ordered. Oh I also had the fried devil eggs. They were good. read more

We went here for our anniversary, it was a great experience. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu, helpful and funny. The restaurant looks small from the street but has a lot of room on the inside and it is decorated with flowers, yellow being their favorite color, Sunrise and all. The mini croissants were made well, the lady that tells you about her trip to Italy would have let you know it they were not up to par. The mimosas kept flowing and the food was delicious and executed well. Happy we found a restaurant we can be content with the whole experience. read more

They were warm, soft, and melted in my mouth. As for the food, it is very standard for breakfast food.

The Sunrise House - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Houston, Texas

I saw this restaurant suggested a few times when looking for brunch spots in Houston, so we decided to give it a try. They only offer valet parking, so that's something to keep in mind. I appreciated it from the start, seeing that there's a beautiful mural on the front of the building, a great spot for photos. When walking in, the aesthetics get even better, with a flower wall right next to the host stand. We were escorted to a table right after we walked in and had some time to look over the menu. I ordered the waitress' suggestion of the Catfish-N-Fixins, with the catfish fried hard and creole grits instead of the cheese grits it normally comes with. Everything on the plate was phenomenal, including the side of collars greens it comes with. My fiancé ordered the Sunrise Continental, which he wasn't a fan of due to the lack of seasoning. However, I didn't have any complaints and definitely suggest The Sunrise House as a great brunch spot. read more

Traditional breakfast, breakfast fried rice, very berry bliss drink, etc. The only thing I didn't love were the birria tacos. They make them a little different. read more

Sunrise House is such a nice spot! Although valet was full and we had to park down the street, it was absolutely worth it. My family and friends all enjoyed their meals and drinks -- and so did I! The hostesses were kind and helpful, getting us seated in less than 20 minutes even without a reservation. Next time, I'll definitely make one in advance. We were seated in the tinted outdoor area -- not my first choice, but honestly, it wasn't bad at all. The fans worked well, it wasn't hot, and I still had a great time. Now let's talk about that açaí bowl -- OMG! So flavorful and refreshing, it gave me the energy boost I needed. The drink I had was also delicious. I already plan to return for that exact same combo! read more

this is how you breakfast after a sunday funday in the city. i brought my friend here to try on of my fav brunch places. the aesthetic is beautiful as always. i love the touches of green mixed with gold and sunflowers. the positive wording on the wall and the cute gold faucets in the tidy bathrooms. parking situation is valet but we ubered so we didn't have to worry. we arrived at 11ish and were promptly greeted by the hostess. we were sat at a high top but my friend preferred a low table which the hostess gladly accommodated. she did let us know it was a 2hr time limit and 20% grat included. yessss for the communication! out server erica was 10/10. she greeted us in a great time and offered water and menu selections. we ate a lot. we had the egg rolls, sushi, continental breakfast, french toast and catfish and fixins. although we didn't finish it all it was alllll perfectly seasoned and tasted amazing. also 20+ points for the pancakes. they were buttered perfectly and fluffy. all i needed was privacy and a little more crisp on the edges. the rise and shine was a great addition and the foam was great. the server assistant made sure our table was cleaned so we're weren't sitting amongst dirty dishes. i appreciate those little touches and table turns. the only downside was the juicer was extremely loud!! it sounded like heavy machinery during a cute breakfast. all in all sunrise will always be my top 3 brunches whether im solo or bringing friends. read more
