“Owners accent is really thick, between it and my hearing loss it wasn’t great at first. It was a misunderstanding about Boston crème being sold out. Seriously no big deal, I didn’t understand what he was saying and I got 2 bigger donuts to feast on anyway. My son had to communicate for me because I am very hard of hearing.Onto the donuts. Dough is light and fluffy with a crisp exterior, fillings were exactly what I expected, devilishly delicious. They are super sweet! They also had kolaches, did not try this go because I wanted a sugar rush.“

“Good ole diner atmosphere. Felt like I stepped back in time about 40 years (in a good way). Great service and very good food at a great price. Had the fried softshell crab on a bun. It was awesome - the hamburger bun was lightly grilled on the flat top and was just a little greasy (in a good way). Have gone back again and just as good.“

Patty is a special grind and handmade, old school sesame seed bun and dressed - you know what that means by now. And the fries! Grease so clean and hot there's barely any on the fries. Order at the counter and pick up at the window.“

The gumbo was superb and the catfish platter was a delicious, abundant serving of American raised catfish, not the cheap swai from China that is often passed off as catfish. Service was attentive but not intrusive. Now that it's back on my radar, I'll be going to J's on a regular basis. Highly recommended!“

“Good food, friendly service, great value in a cozy setting. Thought I'd give Sunrise Cafe a chance about a month ago and just recently went again. Both visits were positive all the way around. I had the Philly Omelet on my first visit - claim is in the name - very tasty! On my second visit I had the Corn beef hash, which was OK, but less impressive than the Philly Omelet in my opinion. I prefer a hardier homemade version vs hash that looks similar to Hormel from a can. My wife had the Patty Melt and said it as good as any she'd ever had! Overall - nice spot, good value, tasty food with friendly service.“

“This is one of those easy to miss scruffy shack type places with absolutely incredible food, great service and a bunch of picnic tables on a grass area right on the beach. One of the best and most memorable meal experiences ever. I am coming back several times while I am still in the area.Parking: Right next to a large free municipal lot. Probably crowded during peak tourist season, but plenty of spaces.Kid-friendliness: Outdoor picnic tables right on a sandy beach. Perfect for kids.Wheelchair accessibility: Right on ground level off the parking lot - should be navigable“

“If I was rating this place on food and the server we had I would rate it a five, but I am throwing in the pre-dinner service and reception upon arrival for a large group, which I found lacking.The good is that our server did an excellent job. The food was very good, everything came out it a timely manner and was great.The negative:I phoned about a month in advance to explain that I was looking for a reservation for 25 to 40 people with questions about them being able to accommodate and the logistics. I was assured it was no problem. I phoned with a reservation for 25 two weeks prior to the date and said I would let them know if that changed. Four days before the reservation I phoned with an updated number of 30; I had to leave a message on voicemail. The day of, about four hours in advance, I phoned to make sure they knew that there would be 30 and that the voicemail had been received. I was told yes it had.We arrived at the restaurant, I told the hostess our group and number of guests. She said the reservation was for 25. She acted a bit put out that it was a larger number. The reservation was for 6pm and of course there was part of the group that got there early, not more than 15 minutes. We didn't really expect to be seated early, but it was 6:20 before we did get seated, so we had senior citizens standing outside for 30 minutes. They had a set of tables for twenty that was ready when we arrived and the other tables they were waiting for diners to finish.I mentioned to the hostess that I was surprised with our group size that they didn't sit us in a separate room. The response was, well you would have had to give us a deposit. This was the first that I had even heard that this was an option. Giving a deposit would not have been an issue. I'm not sure why when I made the original inquiry about booking that I wasn't given this option.I felt like they should have seated the tables they had for twenty and let them order drinks while they waited for the other tables to be available. We had people with canes standing outside for 30 minutes while those tables sat empty. We had someone in the group request to go to the bar and get drinks while they waited and the hostess told them that if they did, they might have to get up if they needed the seating for a diner at the bar without a reservation.I never saw the hostess smile once or make eye contact with a single person, not to anyone in our group, or several people that showed up and were seated while we waited. Maybe she was having a rough night, but as a business owner, I sure wouldn't want that the first interaction my guests got. Several in our party thought she was just to the point of being rude.As I said in the beginning, the server and the food were very good, but it would behoove them to have all of their employees on the same page when it comes to what they have available to accommodate groups and to share that when people are booking.“

“This is a unique, little restaurant with excellent food and superior ambiance. As soon as I walked in the door and was shown to the room that was exclusively for our eight people birthday party, I knew this was a most unusual place. The food was perfect. I had one of the most delicious smoked tuna dip I've ever had!The waitstaff is superior in every way. Our waitress was efficient, quick to refill water and tea, and waited patiently to get our orders.My only suggestion is to put up a sign indicating which way to go once you park. I circled the parking lot three times before I saw my friend waving at me. I would hate for that lovely, little place to miss even one person.“

“We love coming here. We’ve tried just about everything on the menu and honestly, you can’t go wrong with anything you order. Our go to favorites are the wings. They make delicious ranch and spicy ranch and there are cheaper beer prices during happy hour which is from 3-6 I believe. They also have karaoke nights and during Cruising The Coast we were privileged to witness some of the most beautiful singing voices. The service is always friendly and the food along with the atmosphere is great. Good for date nights or bring the whole family. The salmon, fettuccine Alfredo with shrimp, and combo platter is also something we recommend if you don’t won’t the typical burger or wings but you’ll never be disappointed.“

I greatly enjoyed the savory cheesecake, as did my companions. My Ropa Vieja was a bit dry, unfortunately; more attention to cooking time might be warranted, but the sauce on the dish was outstanding. The cocktails were well-crafted also. I will definitely visit again, because I noticed that there is very inviting exterior seating in the rear courtyard. Nice place to lounge for a drink and a bite.“

It was A beautiful atmosphere when we walked in and the customer service was five star I asked the server what was good on the menu and she immediately said that y’all chargrilled oysters and the alligator bites When we got the oysters, hands-down, the best I’ve had since I’ve been living in the city normally some places, the oysters still be having little shells in the oyster still and I didn’t have to worry about that with these baby I have to say they know what they are doing And the food oh my God The redfish was cooked perfect everything was delicious on my plate. I tried some of my friends Mardi Gras pasta. I will be getting it next time we come here and my mom‘s are the Poboy looked so delicious. She didn’t even want to share one oyster with me, and my dad had the chicken pasta I tasted, And that chicken was seasoned to perfect perfection but I will be back with My lady so we could go drink at the bar and then I will give a review on the drinks but overall best place I haven’t been to so far“
