Greek Cuisine
Greek food is a fine melody of the finest pressed olive oil, fresh fermented bread, colorful vegetables, juicy meat, sea food all cooked in spices and fresh rosemary. The people from Greek were great scholars who aimed to excel in everything they do. The results are quite visible in their food as they are the inventors of olive oil which is beneficial to health. Greeks also made different type of wines from the best quality of grapes fermented in controlled environment.
Today, you can find hundreds of restaurants offering authentic Greek food or popularly termed as Mediterranean cuisine in New York city alone. People wait in line to taste the exotic Greek dishes like saganaki, taramasalata, souvlaki, loukoumades, spanakopita, moussaka, and many more. One thing which most people like about these authentic Greek dishes is abundant use of lemon juice, olive oil, fresh rosemary and sea salt. A smart mix of few ingredients can virtually take you on the pebble streets of beautiful city of Greece.
For those who don't have time to enjoy fine dining should try tasting the famous souvlaki with pita which is type of meat dish, also a trademark Greek fast food. For those who are vegetarian, or vegan can try different versions of Greek Salad. So, if you wish to enjoy a hearty yet healthy meal that tastes divine then try dining at the best Greek restaurant in your city. Greek cuisine not only tastes good but also help maintain your body in a natural way through healthy diet.

Yum! Mostly everything we ordered was pretty darn good. Only shortcoming were the kid's meal pizzas. Soggy pita pizzas. The adult entrees were great and the beer selection is impressive. I'd like to go back and give their breakfast a try! The parking lot is packed at breakfast time.

Amazing place! Totally worth the trip off the interstate. As part of my visiting 50 states trek I stopped here due to other yelpers. The place holds maybe 50 people. There is also a nice small outdoor area with 3 tables. The staff was very friendly and inviting. My waitress even helped me plug in my phone. The outlets were in the ceiling! If Alina is working she is a wonderfully helpful and attentive employee. So sit in her section. I had eggs Benedict, which were well prepared. They were good. I also had to try the biscuits and gravy. On the menus it is listed as a side of sausage gravy. This was amazing. I am constantly in search of good b n' g and this place has it, although somewhat hidden. I also had a Bloody Mary which was a nice touch. The prices were very reasonable, with each entree under 9.00. If I ever come back through the area I will defiantly come back.

I really enjoyed this place. The food (Reuben Sandwich) was excellent. Service was awesome and I really liked the whole atmosphere. They have a great menu with reasonable prices. I would recommend this place to everyone.
(4)Jessica H.
Family friendly... I.e. Waitstaff is always friendly to the baby, my hubs likes the beer selection and the big kids like the food! Moussaka, salads (dressing on the table is awesome), Greek platters, lamb burger, and eastern sampler are my faves! Dessert always looks better than it is, except in the case of the rice pudding, that stuff is awesome! I love this place!
(5)Andrea C.
Hubby and I went for a quiet breakfast and the food was great. We had quick service and delicious omelets. Home fries were not desirable.
(4)Patti L.
Love this place! Had dinner here tonight and I had the "Tenderloin and Shrimp" Kabobs with Spanish rice and Greek salad. First, I NEVER finish my dinner, always too full and get a doggie bag. Not tonight, I ate every bite (okay, not all of the rice - but it was delish-- I was too full)! Although I love both steak and shrimp this was still something I do not "normally" order and I was so glad I did!! My husband got the fish and chips, he too finished 100%. The Greek salad that came with my entree was great and we also had a spinach pie app that was very good. Why four and not five stars you wonder? I must reserve five stars for higher end restaurants, but this place is a definite for the "one to try or return to" category!
(4)Elisa L.
My fiance and I stopped in yesterday and were pleasantly surprised. From the freshness to the taste of your BBQ ribs, corn and scrumptious homemade Mac n Cheese - it was by far the VERY BEST ribs we have ever eaten. Hats off to the owners Bill and Effie, Dave and Sarah our server. Outstanding job!!! We will be back and thank you for making our visit so memorable.
(5)Nick B.
Hidden gem tucked off the Hartford rd. There isn't much to rave about in this area but the sunshine grill is a nice treat. They have a surprisingly good beer selection. Baked cakes and pies and good food. It's not big but they make the best of it.
(4)Irene M.
Stoped in today for some delicious fish tacos to celebrate cinco de mayo! Wait staff was excellent...i was greated with friendly smiles and great attentivness from everyone on staff. Got a peice of dessert to go which was to die for! Cant wait to come back!!
(5)Melissa M.
Awesome local restaurant!!! Love this place. Great food and beverage selection! You will not be disappointed.
(5)Kathleen M.
Disappointed. This was my first visit. I ordered the two egg platter. The scrambled eggs had some kind of additive. The turkey sausage must have been precooked. It looked like it was grilled again so it was super dry. The home fries were burnt and greasy. The bagel was ok but the amount of butter put on the bagel was enough to induce a heart attack. No fresh squeezed juices. Double T Diner would have been better- and trust me it really pains me to say that. To the Manager who responded: I wish I still had my receipt!!! I would post a picture of it to PROVE I was at your restaurant. There is no way you don't add something to the eggs, unless they were cooked in a dirty pan??? I make just eggs at my house, how come they don't have brown specks in them? If the turkey sausage was fresh it was extremely overcooked. The bagel was buttered and yes there was butter on the table as well. Again, potatoes were burned black and greasy. I'm making my review one star since you felt like you needed to call me a liar. I assure you I'm not lying and I was at your location today and we certainly won't be returning.

Our family is a frequent flyer at the Sunshine Grill. The kids love to get the pancakes anytime they come, which are always good. Last night I had the bison burger, which was very good. It was cooked to a nice medium rare, and came with sweet potato fires. The service is always great, and they have a very good craft beer selection. No drafts, but well over 50 bottles to choose from. This is a nice hidden gem with great service, large portions, and good prices.
(4)Jessica L.
Loved it!! Check out our check in for details. Thank you Sarah for the wonderful service!!
(5)Judith A.
My guy and I love this place. It's off the beaten path so it's good for when all the local places are packed. They have really good salads and burgers. But my all time favorite is the spinach pie. Best spanakopita ever. Full size portion at a small plate price. Put that together with a cup of crab soup and you can't beat it. You owe it to yourself to try this place out.
(4)D H.
Very disappointing. The cream chipped beef is mostly cream with a bit of chipped beef. And it is very finely chipped. The home fries are good though, but thats about it. The place is actually a dump. I expected it to be cleaner inside. There were a lot of flies flying around when we were there. Hard to keep them from landing on food. Will not return and will def nof recommend to a friend.
(1)Laura D.
What happened?? I used to love this place - homey and really decent food. But recently things have gone south and my last few visits the food has been lousy. (I mean, honestly, how is it even possible to make a chicken club flavorless?) Several other dishes were really salt heavy. This is my local spot so I'm sad to see this happen. Apparently it's the same owner but new management and I don't know if this is the reason. But looking at the "new" menu it seems they are trying to be something they're not. They should go back to what they do best - Greek dishes, sandwiches, breakfast. I really hope they can turn it around. (The waitstaff and those fantastic desserts are still great - it's just the food that's changed.)
(2)Donna M.
Love our neighborhood gem. We eat there 2 times a month. The food is always good and great selections of beer and wine. Love the Sangria. We love the servers. They are always friendly and accommodating.
(5)Sally M.
This place was recommended to us for lunch after we went blueberry picking at Hybridoma farms. We wanted something nearby and casual enough to accommodate two sweaty people. It's not hole-in-the wall casual, it has a nice calm atmosphere but lovely decor. We were delighted about the drink specials - moscow mules. They hit the spot. I went with the lamb burger which was deeeelicious, juicy even though I got it well done. I have nothing to compare it to, but since Greek fusion is kind of their thing, I'd say give those items on a the menu a try. They have a good amount of healthy options. Service was good too.
(4)Kelsey O.
We go here for breakfast often. Love their selection, everything we have had has been great. Good waitstaff, and pretty fast service, even though it always seems fairly busy. The only downside is the dessert selection. Mostly cakes, which look tasty and sound good, but are dry (no simple syrup) and iced with an American buttercream.
(4)Charles W.
Had many of the greek specialties here...but the Rockfish Rockefeller (not greek) is to die for!!!
(4)Jason M.
This is a really nice restaurant- good food, reasonable prices, and friendly staff. Really enjoyed the Arizona omelette and the portions were rather large! They have a great eggs benedict!
(4)Drake C.
I quite honestly love this place. I love the feel of it, and the food matches the feel to a T. This place is like walking into a a room of your grandfathers old sweaters. In the best possible way. It's cosey, homey and nostalgic. Just something about it makes you feel so, warm and fuzzy, and like I said, the food matches this cosey, homey and nostalgia feel. It's like being served by your grandma again when you were a kid. It's a great feeling. This place is wonderful and I love it. I highly recommend giving it a try. If you are looking for a fancy meal, this is not the place for you. If you want a bit of grandmas cooking or a nice hearty meal, COME ON IN!
(5)Meena A.
Yummy! This was my first time here and I left feeling totally satisfied. The breakfast choices are impressive -unique and delicious, definitely something for everyone. I'm a boring eggs and bacon gal, but my husband loved his Jersey omelet. It was huge, not skimpy on the ingredients and full of flavor. It came with toast and home fries so plenty of food for big eaters (or post-NYE drinkers in our case). Great service, delicious food and coffee, we'll definitely be back!
(4)Dana L.
I went here for breakfast. The food was good, not bad at all, but nothing was omg so good I have to come back here. I'd say it's a safe place to eat breakfast but nothing over the top. We ordered an omelette meal with fried potatoes, blueberry pancakes, chocolate chip banana pancakes & coffee. Btw: The coffee is weak.
(4)Tierra C.
First experience was breakfast. Although it wasn't bad, it wasn't anything spectacular. Gave it a second chance with lunch. I asked for a drink I saw a sign for in the entrance. They came to the table to ask what went in it. I had to point them in the direction of their advertisement. Ordered a charred portobello wrap. They brought me a panini. They fixed it although my instincts thought otherwise. Found a few hairs in my meal by the end and developed horrible stomach cramps. Won't explain what went down after that. Boyfriend seemed fine with his meal tho. My luck maybe. Not worth it anyway.
(1)James S.
Great food. The deep fried picked are really good. The Mac n cheese is one my favorite sides. I haven't had a bad meal here yet. A really nice selection of craft beers and reasonably priced as well.
(5)Niran A.
I work in the Kingsville area and the lunch/dining options are truly limited. While there is an abundance of crap Italian food in the area, it is nice to see that a place like Sunshine Grill is doing food justice. The menu is comparable to a diner without the diner ambience or atmosphere. There is everything from breakfast, hearty sandwiches, American style platters as well as Greek classics. After sampling a bunch of items on the menu I can confidently say that almost everything is very delicious. The falafel salad is a wonderful vegetarian and healthy lunch option. The beef and turkey platters with mash potatoes and gravy are a great hearty option on a cold day. My favorite item on the menu is the hot rueben sandwich. A massive classic sandwich on toasty, doughy pumpernickel swirl bread. So delicious! As you walk in there is also a large class display case which features the many homemade cakes/desserts offered at Sunshine. I don't really have a sweet tooth so I personally haven't tried the cakes but they always look very appetizing! The staff is also very friendly and dining in is always a pleasurable experience. The restaurant gets very mobbed at times, but that figures as this is truly one of the only good places to eat in the area.
(4)Hima R.
Went here on Memorial Day afternoon ahead of a trip to Boordy Winery. Friendly service. Food was good, but nothing to write home about. I had the fish carnitas, essentially a Thai-style taco with rockfish - the sweet chili sauce was delicious, but the fresh didn't taste all that fresh (I have extra high standards of seafood quality living in a coastal city). My husband had the lamb gyro and seemed satisfied with it, but not excited. Perhaps there are better choices on the vast menu, but we didn't think to explore them. In all fairness, I did not check Yelp before heading over - may have given me clues as to the best dishes to order (even breakfast items). Perhaps I'd go back again for the breakfast if visiting Dejon or another spot in the area.
(3)Jamie N.
We love this place and probably eat here more frequently than any other. My husband loves trying new beers and I love the wait staff. Now with the outdoor seating, it's even better.
(5)Jimmy C.
I love this place! My favorite is the sunshine salad with grilled chicken , it is so good! Also, the beer selection is out of this world. Great atmosphere great food, always a good place to go and enjoy the evening.
(5)Julie P.
LOVE Sunshine Grille! We go a lot because they have vegetarian options for my family member and it's close. Never had bad food there. Have been there for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and it's all good every time! Waffles are amazing, all the Greek food is so good! And it has a great atmosphere. Definitely a local favorite though so it does get busy!
(5)Andrew R.
This is a regular stop for me, breakfast, lunch and dinner. They have a liquor license now with a better than expected choice of microbrews. It is family owned and they take great pride in their service and food quality. Additionally, I have used them for catering downtown events with rave reviews.
(5)Tyler S.
I've been here twice, both for lunch and breakfast. For lunch, their sandwiches are off the hook. The first time I got a falafel sandwich, and I loved it! I definitely love the "relaxed diner" setting where it's much more casual and welcoming than your standard diner. Although this isn't much of a diner, it's almost as though you're just at somebodies house that has been revamped to look like a restaurant (which I love) For breakfast, their prices are totally cool. Serve yourself your own coffee, with unlimited refills (sign me up), Their 3-egg omelets are HUMONGO! But regardless, it was delicious. My friend got banana pancakes and eggs there, and wow they do not cheap you out on the pancakes! Even the two of us couldn't finish them! They were very very very very....delicious! Definitely give this place a try for a relaxed setting
(5)David M.
Cool place. First time here. Nicer than diner, but not opressively foo-foo. Service friendly & efficient, Sunshine Burger was terrific. Great coffee and free WiFi sealed the deal. I'll be back! Sunday brunchtime was slammed. Decided to leave & came back closer to 2pm. Bonus points: Tears For Fears accoustic playing on SiriusXM.

Sunshine Grill Goes Up In Flames! This was a good go to place for fresh food, but those days are gone! Had the fisherman platter , frozen food cooked badly, wife had stuffed shrimp, the side of green beans was mushy, either frozen or cooked all day.the man at the cash register did not know how to handle our criticism. We were not looking for a free meal and helped his uncomfortableness by telling him we just wanted to pay our bill and never come back again~!
(1)John L.
Yes, agreed on ratings. A good place to eat. Note, breakfast and lunch are no waiters so place order at counter but all good since they bring to table. Still get the feeling of service since they're all around cleaning/stocking etc....good food
(4)Kayak S.
This is one of those places I've driven by for years and finally stopped by to try. Excellent service, the waitress seated us and was very attentive as we ate our brunch. Both my wife and I enjoyed our appetizers (Village Salad and Fried Calamari) as well as our meals (Moussaka and Salmon). The other patrons seemed to be enjoying their meals as well. Overall a very nice restaurant and two people that will certainly be back for more.
(4)Max R.
I recommend the breakfast. All other fare is mediocre. The Greek cuisine is OK, I have definitely had better. The restaurant itself has nice decor and is very clean. They also serve wine and beer.
(3)Ethan D.
Great atmosphere but not sure about the food. The first visit was a Saturday morning. We received excellent service with no wait. The breakfast food was good. Oddly enough the soda was awful! We visited again two weeks later. It was 11 am but we were having breakfast. The home fries were dry and tasted microwaved. Everything else was pretty good except the soda!! It tastes dirty which made me start to question the cleanliness of the place. I don't think we will be returning.
(2)Patrick P.
I've been here twice for brunch and left feeling like John Stamos after he eats some Greek yogurt.... it just doesn't get any better. Scrambled eggs cooked perfectly using farm fresh, organic eggs. Best french toast ever. Really reasonable prices as well.
(5)K C G.
Delicious breakfast. Great service. Worth the 6 mile detour off 95. Great value for the food. Nice portions and a good quality meal. Yum!
(5)Ji Y.
Random place out in no where but they sell some good food! I love how breakfast is served all day. They sell a little bit of everything!
(3)Jan M.
Had dinner with friends we were visiting in the area;extensive menu with something for everyone. Hubby had crab cake sandwich with fries and I had the turkey hot sandwich with mashed potatoes and all covered in gravy. It came out on a platter! This could easily serve 2 people. The desserts looked amazing as well. A little gem off the beaten path north of Baltimore.
(5)Pat M.
Breakfast rating only. Wifey and I have had breakfast here around 3-4 times now, and really like it overall. Being a big fan of breakfast, they get high marks from me since they offer all-day breakfast. Menu has pretty nice selection of mostly standard fare, and just about everything has been well above average. The one klunker was yesterday, when wifey tried their Greek yogurt with berries and granola. It came as 3 individual items and was just too basic. Only berries were past their prime slices of strawberry in small plastic condiment container, and granola was mediocre. Not good, especially when compared to a similar dish she had when we visited Denver. Service is usually pretty good, and staff is often nice and friendly. Prices are average. Would like to see more combo-type offerings on the menu, allowing for the sampling of a little bit of this and that.
(4)Christine G.
Great place for breakfast! What a gem! I don't live in the bel air area anymore, but was in town to visit an old friend for breakfast and we thought we would try sunshine grill and I'm so glad we did. They do breakfast right! They are so friendly and polite and the foods really delicious. Great environment to eat and relax in. All their baked goods are made in house also and are truly delicious. Like I said, what a gem. I will definitely be back!
(5)Doug C.
I had a feeling that the nearly 5 star average rating would not be warranted, and unfortunately, that was confirmed this morning at breakfast. The overriding sentiment of our part of 4 was that everyone's selection was bland. The highlight was my Belgian waffle, which was quite good. The scrambled eggs were horrendous (basically an omelette cut into pieces) and flavorless, while the side of ham was marginal. The huevos rancheros and eggs benedict were surprisingly plain. On the bright side, our service was friendly throughout. Will most likely not return though.
(2)Lola I.
Great Greek food! Great prices! I came here for lunch with some friends. The placed was packed. Its hard to get around as the seating is a little cramped. This place is a hidden gem. Highly recommend!
(4)Mark D.
I have been going here for years. Not only is the food and service consistently good, the owner supports the greater Kingsville area in many ways including car shows, parades, movie nights and open mics.
(5)Allison H.
This place may have been the premier quaint locale to grab breakfast or lunch in its hay day, but do not be fooled by the charming exterior. This place really does not know how to serve a decent plate of food. I've given this restaurant plenty of well-meaning tries, and each time I have been disappointed. I sampled the Belgian waffle; mediocre at best. The price was far too high for the single waffle I received, lightly dressed with a small dollop of whipped cream. Though discouraged by the less than worthwhile waffle, I thought I ought to order some Greek fare. The falafel sandwich was soggy and unlike any falafel I had tasted before, and not in a good way. For an authentic falafel sandwich, try someplace else. The most recent venture was a reluctant choice. My eggs, though supposed to be 'over medium' were cooked very easy. My toast was cold and my waitress did not give me any butter or jam. My friend ordered a pricey plate of huevos rancheros, which primarily consisted of a heaping pile of disgustingly salty canned retried beans. She was so disgusted she had to buy a donut at a bakery to get the taste out of her mouth. Here's the thing about the sunshine grill: people come here because it's the only diner in town. Trust me, make the trek into Towson or Perry Hall and actually get a decent meal.

I dislike Yelps 5-star system. This place is great, by the way, but let me get on a tangent here. You either need to be 2 stars, 4 stars, or 6 stars. 5 stars just doesn't do what it needs to do. The 2-star system is great. Either you like it, or you don't. Nothing in the middle. Like or Dislike. The 4-star system allows for a little more description, with a Hate it, Dislike it, Like it, or Love it. Now the 5-star system is where it all hits the fan. What exactly does that 5th (or the center star, as we shall now call it) star get you? Indifference? Hate it, Dislike it, Lacking a useful opinion, Like it, Love it? No no no, this is why you need my patented 6-star system. It allows for the extremes. This takes the 4-star system and adds a Horrible experience and Amazing experience to either end of the scale. It is for truly great or truly useless restaurant. Which is the only true way to explain the scale of the different restaurants you will find in a given city. So, as I slowly step down from my soap box, while I give this restaurant 5 stars, it's certainly not on the level of Charleston or Blue Hill Tavern, or any of the other elite dining in the Baltimore area. But i want to make sure I emphasize how good it is for it's breakfast, baked goods, and greek food. It's a 5 on a scale of 1-5, and also a 5 on a scale of 1-6. My patented scale of 1-6.
(5)Kerry A.
So glad we came here! As soon as we stepped inside, we knew we were in for a great breakfast! The daily specials all looked wonderful, but we were on a breakfast mission! We ordered the eggs benny, farmers omelette, sausage gravy, and a side of bacon. Although the eggs were slightly overlooked for my friends liking, the hollandaise sauce was to die for. The omelette was massive and came with toast and home fries- brought plenty of left overs home! I ordered a side of sausage gravy and to my surprise, it had biscuits under it! I didn't want the biscuits- just the gravy and when I let my waitress know, she was quick to bring an additional cup of gravy. The sausage gravy is amazing! Perfectly spiced, piping hot, and wonderful on home fries (or anything edible). The side of bacon was ordered extra crispy and it was cooked perfectly! Usually, extra crispy comes out charred or still gooey but this bacon was perfect! For two eggs benny, a farmers omelette, sausage gravy, bacon, and three drinks- the total was under $50 so it was a great value with large portions! I can't wait to come back!
(5)S W.
Where shall I start? Construction outside-not attractive. SLOW service. Waitress argues with you about what you ordered? Really, can't you just go and make it right? Please ask us if we need anything, like a refill on our drink or if our food is OK. Loud cackling women in the corner whose voices reverberate on the metal ceiling which is pretty, but not good for a restaurants acoustics. Food was mediocre. When giving a customer the corner piece of spinach pie from a large pan it is mostly phyllo and hardly any filling. Think about this when serving someone. Pipes that run along the ceiling that sweat and drip on customers backs. Hello health department. Don't bother to ask to speak to the management. They are argumentative and not customer friendly even when they are in the wrong. Sorry folks, we won't be back.
(1)Anita G.
Am sitting here at Sunshine Grille, and it's absolutely wonderful ! The Jersey omelette is spicy, but not too spicy. The potatoes and biscuits are perfect comfort food. Coffee tastes great (but I would love to see a caramel coffee offered). I am in the area on a temporary basis, and I will make sure I come back soon.
(5)Carrie S.
Greek salad was yummy. My friend had the pasticcio and the gnu at the next table had a good looking suvla. The chairs are terrible and it was not very clean. Service was decent, but nothing special.
(3)Ken O.
Great place to eat ! Great menu and VERY friendly owners. I recomenned for all
(5)Rachel L.
1st let me say - I've been to Sunshine Grill many, many times and it's been really, really good. I've always gone during the week, and during the day. I would say it's gotten consistently better. I LOVED this place. Now today - I was just so, so disappointed. There were quite a few young folks just hanging around behind the counter laughing and having a great time and they kinda forgot customers were coming in. OK - I was young once - I get it. But the food - WTH? Waited so long for the mussels appetizer, I finally asked the waitress if she was aware we wanted it first and not along with the rest of the order. "Oh yeah - the person who cooks is wasn't here but then they were and it should be out soon." Huh? Then - mussels in a water/butter broth with soggy cheese bread - sigh. Corned beef and cabbage was just awful and not even consistently warm - ugh. My burger of the day was clearly not made today and was kinda greasy. They took the corned beef off the tab - thanks - that was the right thing to do. I will say tho that the sangria is just so, so good! Love it! What was missing today? The owners.. I wonder if they know what goes on when they're away - I'm hoping they find out and make it right. It would be such a shame for them to let such a wonderful restaurant lose it's reputation because the staff was more interested in having fun than providing the usual above standard service and cuisine. My husband doesn't want to go back but I'll definitely give them another try - maybe not on a saturday afternoon tho.
(3)Victor R.
Great little place to go. Great food and friendly service. Will definitely go back!
(4)Britni B.
Loved the atmosphere and the food was amazing. During daytime you order at the counter and seat yourself. Huge menu. Boyfriend had the cheese steak, I had a greek platter. Amazing. Will come back for more!
(5)Johanna G.
Very consistant, lots to choose from. Great little gem. We eat here every time we are in town. Wish we had a place like this near our home in CA.
(4)Swivelneck D.
went here for breakfast. bad service and corned beef hash was out of a can and burnt. eggs were also overdone, toast was underdone, hash browns were only thing good. orange juice was real but from concentrate and out of machine. no clue how people are giving this so many stars. if you think this place is worth 4-5 stars as many seem to , you should try places that are true 4-5 star breakfast/brunch places (ms. Shirley's/woodberry/petit Louis/etc). [This next section is a response to the restaurant's response: I did not compare the restaurant to Woodberry. I didn't expect it to be Woodberry but if a place is getting 5 stars from reviewers, it needs to be worthy. That was more a comment about reviewers in a way. I was pointing out that the posters are giving this place 5 stars need to go to a place that merits 5 stars. That is a different thing. Had Sunshine done its job at its target price/style, it could have gotten 3-4 stars. I am not a snob, particularly about breakfast. One of my favorite breakfast places is municipal golf course because you can't improve on a perfectly fried egg and corned beef hash, even at a top restaurant. This was not about the level of restaurant, it was about execution. If I am up there again hiking, and it fits my schedule, I may give the restaurant another shot. This is because I do respect businesses (as someone who has ones several) and the restaurant taking the time to rationally respond is respected and appreciated. However, a couple of points in my review are valid even if the execution was better on the eggs and toast -- the orange juice was a mix and the corned beef was clearly processed/out of a can. Those going there thinking that this is worthy of 4-5 stars need to see the review history. The place seems to get 5 stars or 1 star and nothing in between. It is great that there is a loyal local following, but those using Yelp are expecting more when they see 4-5 stars. ]

I went here about a year ago and I had a burger that left quite an impression on me. I've been wondering lately if it was a case of the further removed, the better it seemed. So today I was up in the area and decided to stop by for lunch. I love the atmosphere of the place. Very low key. Bright and happy feeling. It's got a very local mom & pop welcoming feel. All of the staff were friendly and patient and accommodating. I ordered the Angus burger w/no mayo. I ordered it medium rare and after taking a bite of this behemoth of a burger, loaded with fixins, was very pleased to see a juicy red center. The burger was messy, but absolutely delicious. Definitely in the top 4 or 5 of burgers I've ever had. The french fries were extra. They were crispy and adequately seasoned, nothing spectacular but good. The burger was the star. A nice bonus for this place -- they have a very good craft beer selection for a diner-type place. And it was cheap. It definitely won't be another year before I'm back

If you are hungry for breakfast...this is the place for you if you are north of Baltimore. I had two eggs, bacon (a good serving of it), and two large piece of french toast for $6.99 I think. Maybe $7.99. It was your average breakfast menu but tasty and a lot of it. I could have used a refill on my coffee, but the waitress never came back, and it really was not that busy except for all the corvette folk! Good place to grab breakfast!
(3)Rob V.
Great new menu. Best Greek food I've had in awhile and like the craft beers selection. Love the relaxed country setting and outdoor seating too.
(5)Vanisha O.
Nice staff, prompt and attentive and idk if I was super hungry or of their good was THAT good! Probably a bit of both though lol. Cheap with moderate portions, if you're in the area check them out.
(5)Judith A.
Best spinach pie ever! Small plate price, dinner sized portion. My guy had an Angus burger and he said it's marvelous. Sit on the outside porch if you can. It's warm even in cold weather. Service is friendly and on point. An off the beaten path gem.
(4)Lou P.
Again no complaints only praise. The rib special was great. Good smoky flavor and plenty of meat on the bone. String beans had a tomato sauce light. Good mac and cheese. Staff polite and helpful as always. The lobster potpie was full of lobster and made with chunks of crust mixed in. My companion said it was the best she ever had.
(5)Larry P.
Last evening my beautiful lady and I went back to the sunshine grill. We have returned many time because the food and service are so good. I could tell you everything we have eaten but the short of it is that we have never been disappointed. It is a little of the path but that adds to the experience !
(4)Julie P.
LOVE Sunshine Grille! We go a lot because they have vegetarian options for my family member and it's close. Never had bad food there. Have been there for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and it's all good every time! Waffles are amazing, all the Greek food is so good! And it has a great atmosphere. Definitely a local favorite though so it does get busy!
(5)Andrew R.
This is a regular stop for me, breakfast, lunch and dinner. They have a liquor license now with a better than expected choice of microbrews. It is family owned and they take great pride in their service and food quality. Additionally, I have used them for catering downtown events with rave reviews.

I've been here twice, both for lunch and breakfast. For lunch, their sandwiches are off the hook. The first time I got a falafel sandwich, and I loved it! I definitely love the "relaxed diner" setting where it's much more casual and welcoming than your standard diner. Although this isn't much of a diner, it's almost as though you're just at somebodies house that has been revamped to look like a restaurant (which I love) For breakfast, their prices are totally cool. Serve yourself your own coffee, with unlimited refills (sign me up), Their 3-egg omelets are HUMONGO! But regardless, it was delicious. My friend got banana pancakes and eggs there, and wow they do not cheap you out on the pancakes! Even the two of us couldn't finish them! They were very very very very....delicious! Definitely give this place a try for a relaxed setting
(5)David M.
Cool place. First time here. Nicer than diner, but not opressively foo-foo. Service friendly & efficient, Sunshine Burger was terrific. Great coffee and free WiFi sealed the deal. I'll be back! Sunday brunchtime was slammed. Decided to leave & came back closer to 2pm. Bonus points: Tears For Fears accoustic playing on SiriusXM.

Sunshine Grill Goes Up In Flames! This was a good go to place for fresh food, but those days are gone! Had the fisherman platter , frozen food cooked badly, wife had stuffed shrimp, the side of green beans was mushy, either frozen or cooked all day.the man at the cash register did not know how to handle our criticism. We were not looking for a free meal and helped his uncomfortableness by telling him we just wanted to pay our bill and never come back again~!
(1)Christine G.
Great place for breakfast! What a gem! I don't live in the bel air area anymore, but was in town to visit an old friend for breakfast and we thought we would try sunshine grill and I'm so glad we did. They do breakfast right! They are so friendly and polite and the foods really delicious. Great environment to eat and relax in. All their baked goods are made in house also and are truly delicious. Like I said, what a gem. I will definitely be back!
(5)Doug C.
I had a feeling that the nearly 5 star average rating would not be warranted, and unfortunately, that was confirmed this morning at breakfast. The overriding sentiment of our part of 4 was that everyone's selection was bland. The highlight was my Belgian waffle, which was quite good. The scrambled eggs were horrendous (basically an omelette cut into pieces) and flavorless, while the side of ham was marginal. The huevos rancheros and eggs benedict were surprisingly plain. On the bright side, our service was friendly throughout. Will most likely not return though.
(2)Lola I.
Great Greek food! Great prices! I came here for lunch with some friends. The placed was packed. Its hard to get around as the seating is a little cramped. This place is a hidden gem. Highly recommend!
(4)Mark D.
I have been going here for years. Not only is the food and service consistently good, the owner supports the greater Kingsville area in many ways including car shows, parades, movie nights and open mics.
(5)Max R.
I recommend the breakfast. All other fare is mediocre. The Greek cuisine is OK, I have definitely had better. The restaurant itself has nice decor and is very clean. They also serve wine and beer.
(3)Ethan D.
Great atmosphere but not sure about the food. The first visit was a Saturday morning. We received excellent service with no wait. The breakfast food was good. Oddly enough the soda was awful! We visited again two weeks later. It was 11 am but we were having breakfast. The home fries were dry and tasted microwaved. Everything else was pretty good except the soda!! It tastes dirty which made me start to question the cleanliness of the place. I don't think we will be returning.
(2)Kayak S.
This is one of those places I've driven by for years and finally stopped by to try. Excellent service, the waitress seated us and was very attentive as we ate our brunch. Both my wife and I enjoyed our appetizers (Village Salad and Fried Calamari) as well as our meals (Moussaka and Salmon). The other patrons seemed to be enjoying their meals as well. Overall a very nice restaurant and two people that will certainly be back for more.
(4)John L.
Yes, agreed on ratings. A good place to eat. Note, breakfast and lunch are no waiters so place order at counter but all good since they bring to table. Still get the feeling of service since they're all around cleaning/stocking etc....good food
(4)Patrick P.
I've been here twice for brunch and left feeling like John Stamos after he eats some Greek yogurt.... it just doesn't get any better. Scrambled eggs cooked perfectly using farm fresh, organic eggs. Best french toast ever. Really reasonable prices as well.
(5)K C G.
Delicious breakfast. Great service. Worth the 6 mile detour off 95. Great value for the food. Nice portions and a good quality meal. Yum!
(5)Ji Y.
Random place out in no where but they sell some good food! I love how breakfast is served all day. They sell a little bit of everything!
(3)Jan M.
Had dinner with friends we were visiting in the area;extensive menu with something for everyone. Hubby had crab cake sandwich with fries and I had the turkey hot sandwich with mashed potatoes and all covered in gravy. It came out on a platter! This could easily serve 2 people. The desserts looked amazing as well. A little gem off the beaten path north of Baltimore.
(5)Pat M.
Breakfast rating only. Wifey and I have had breakfast here around 3-4 times now, and really like it overall. Being a big fan of breakfast, they get high marks from me since they offer all-day breakfast. Menu has pretty nice selection of mostly standard fare, and just about everything has been well above average. The one klunker was yesterday, when wifey tried their Greek yogurt with berries and granola. It came as 3 individual items and was just too basic. Only berries were past their prime slices of strawberry in small plastic condiment container, and granola was mediocre. Not good, especially when compared to a similar dish she had when we visited Denver. Service is usually pretty good, and staff is often nice and friendly. Prices are average. Would like to see more combo-type offerings on the menu, allowing for the sampling of a little bit of this and that.
(4)Allison H.
This place may have been the premier quaint locale to grab breakfast or lunch in its hay day, but do not be fooled by the charming exterior. This place really does not know how to serve a decent plate of food. I've given this restaurant plenty of well-meaning tries, and each time I have been disappointed. I sampled the Belgian waffle; mediocre at best. The price was far too high for the single waffle I received, lightly dressed with a small dollop of whipped cream. Though discouraged by the less than worthwhile waffle, I thought I ought to order some Greek fare. The falafel sandwich was soggy and unlike any falafel I had tasted before, and not in a good way. For an authentic falafel sandwich, try someplace else. The most recent venture was a reluctant choice. My eggs, though supposed to be 'over medium' were cooked very easy. My toast was cold and my waitress did not give me any butter or jam. My friend ordered a pricey plate of huevos rancheros, which primarily consisted of a heaping pile of disgustingly salty canned retried beans. She was so disgusted she had to buy a donut at a bakery to get the taste out of her mouth. Here's the thing about the sunshine grill: people come here because it's the only diner in town. Trust me, make the trek into Towson or Perry Hall and actually get a decent meal.

I dislike Yelps 5-star system. This place is great, by the way, but let me get on a tangent here. You either need to be 2 stars, 4 stars, or 6 stars. 5 stars just doesn't do what it needs to do. The 2-star system is great. Either you like it, or you don't. Nothing in the middle. Like or Dislike. The 4-star system allows for a little more description, with a Hate it, Dislike it, Like it, or Love it. Now the 5-star system is where it all hits the fan. What exactly does that 5th (or the center star, as we shall now call it) star get you? Indifference? Hate it, Dislike it, Lacking a useful opinion, Like it, Love it? No no no, this is why you need my patented 6-star system. It allows for the extremes. This takes the 4-star system and adds a Horrible experience and Amazing experience to either end of the scale. It is for truly great or truly useless restaurant. Which is the only true way to explain the scale of the different restaurants you will find in a given city. So, as I slowly step down from my soap box, while I give this restaurant 5 stars, it's certainly not on the level of Charleston or Blue Hill Tavern, or any of the other elite dining in the Baltimore area. But i want to make sure I emphasize how good it is for it's breakfast, baked goods, and greek food. It's a 5 on a scale of 1-5, and also a 5 on a scale of 1-6. My patented scale of 1-6.
(5)Kerry A.
So glad we came here! As soon as we stepped inside, we knew we were in for a great breakfast! The daily specials all looked wonderful, but we were on a breakfast mission! We ordered the eggs benny, farmers omelette, sausage gravy, and a side of bacon. Although the eggs were slightly overlooked for my friends liking, the hollandaise sauce was to die for. The omelette was massive and came with toast and home fries- brought plenty of left overs home! I ordered a side of sausage gravy and to my surprise, it had biscuits under it! I didn't want the biscuits- just the gravy and when I let my waitress know, she was quick to bring an additional cup of gravy. The sausage gravy is amazing! Perfectly spiced, piping hot, and wonderful on home fries (or anything edible). The side of bacon was ordered extra crispy and it was cooked perfectly! Usually, extra crispy comes out charred or still gooey but this bacon was perfect! For two eggs benny, a farmers omelette, sausage gravy, bacon, and three drinks- the total was under $50 so it was a great value with large portions! I can't wait to come back!
(5)S W.
Where shall I start? Construction outside-not attractive. SLOW service. Waitress argues with you about what you ordered? Really, can't you just go and make it right? Please ask us if we need anything, like a refill on our drink or if our food is OK. Loud cackling women in the corner whose voices reverberate on the metal ceiling which is pretty, but not good for a restaurants acoustics. Food was mediocre. When giving a customer the corner piece of spinach pie from a large pan it is mostly phyllo and hardly any filling. Think about this when serving someone. Pipes that run along the ceiling that sweat and drip on customers backs. Hello health department. Don't bother to ask to speak to the management. They are argumentative and not customer friendly even when they are in the wrong. Sorry folks, we won't be back.
(1)Anita G.
Am sitting here at Sunshine Grille, and it's absolutely wonderful ! The Jersey omelette is spicy, but not too spicy. The potatoes and biscuits are perfect comfort food. Coffee tastes great (but I would love to see a caramel coffee offered). I am in the area on a temporary basis, and I will make sure I come back soon.
(5)Carrie S.
Greek salad was yummy. My friend had the pasticcio and the gnu at the next table had a good looking suvla. The chairs are terrible and it was not very clean. Service was decent, but nothing special.
(3)Ken O.
Great place to eat ! Great menu and VERY friendly owners. I recomenned for all
(5)Rachel L.
1st let me say - I've been to Sunshine Grill many, many times and it's been really, really good. I've always gone during the week, and during the day. I would say it's gotten consistently better. I LOVED this place. Now today - I was just so, so disappointed. There were quite a few young folks just hanging around behind the counter laughing and having a great time and they kinda forgot customers were coming in. OK - I was young once - I get it. But the food - WTH? Waited so long for the mussels appetizer, I finally asked the waitress if she was aware we wanted it first and not along with the rest of the order. "Oh yeah - the person who cooks is wasn't here but then they were and it should be out soon." Huh? Then - mussels in a water/butter broth with soggy cheese bread - sigh. Corned beef and cabbage was just awful and not even consistently warm - ugh. My burger of the day was clearly not made today and was kinda greasy. They took the corned beef off the tab - thanks - that was the right thing to do. I will say tho that the sangria is just so, so good! Love it! What was missing today? The owners.. I wonder if they know what goes on when they're away - I'm hoping they find out and make it right. It would be such a shame for them to let such a wonderful restaurant lose it's reputation because the staff was more interested in having fun than providing the usual above standard service and cuisine. My husband doesn't want to go back but I'll definitely give them another try - maybe not on a saturday afternoon tho.
(3)Victor R.
Great little place to go. Great food and friendly service. Will definitely go back!
(4)Britni B.
Loved the atmosphere and the food was amazing. During daytime you order at the counter and seat yourself. Huge menu. Boyfriend had the cheese steak, I had a greek platter. Amazing. Will come back for more!
(5)Johanna G.
Very consistant, lots to choose from. Great little gem. We eat here every time we are in town. Wish we had a place like this near our home in CA.
(4)Swivelneck D.
went here for breakfast. bad service and corned beef hash was out of a can and burnt. eggs were also overdone, toast was underdone, hash browns were only thing good. orange juice was real but from concentrate and out of machine. no clue how people are giving this so many stars. if you think this place is worth 4-5 stars as many seem to , you should try places that are true 4-5 star breakfast/brunch places (ms. Shirley's/woodberry/petit Louis/etc). [This next section is a response to the restaurant's response: I did not compare the restaurant to Woodberry. I didn't expect it to be Woodberry but if a place is getting 5 stars from reviewers, it needs to be worthy. That was more a comment about reviewers in a way. I was pointing out that the posters are giving this place 5 stars need to go to a place that merits 5 stars. That is a different thing. Had Sunshine done its job at its target price/style, it could have gotten 3-4 stars. I am not a snob, particularly about breakfast. One of my favorite breakfast places is municipal golf course because you can't improve on a perfectly fried egg and corned beef hash, even at a top restaurant. This was not about the level of restaurant, it was about execution. If I am up there again hiking, and it fits my schedule, I may give the restaurant another shot. This is because I do respect businesses (as someone who has ones several) and the restaurant taking the time to rationally respond is respected and appreciated. However, a couple of points in my review are valid even if the execution was better on the eggs and toast -- the orange juice was a mix and the corned beef was clearly processed/out of a can. Those going there thinking that this is worthy of 4-5 stars need to see the review history. The place seems to get 5 stars or 1 star and nothing in between. It is great that there is a loyal local following, but those using Yelp are expecting more when they see 4-5 stars. ]

I went here about a year ago and I had a burger that left quite an impression on me. I've been wondering lately if it was a case of the further removed, the better it seemed. So today I was up in the area and decided to stop by for lunch. I love the atmosphere of the place. Very low key. Bright and happy feeling. It's got a very local mom & pop welcoming feel. All of the staff were friendly and patient and accommodating. I ordered the Angus burger w/no mayo. I ordered it medium rare and after taking a bite of this behemoth of a burger, loaded with fixins, was very pleased to see a juicy red center. The burger was messy, but absolutely delicious. Definitely in the top 4 or 5 of burgers I've ever had. The french fries were extra. They were crispy and adequately seasoned, nothing spectacular but good. The burger was the star. A nice bonus for this place -- they have a very good craft beer selection for a diner-type place. And it was cheap. It definitely won't be another year before I'm back

If you are hungry for breakfast...this is the place for you if you are north of Baltimore. I had two eggs, bacon (a good serving of it), and two large piece of french toast for $6.99 I think. Maybe $7.99. It was your average breakfast menu but tasty and a lot of it. I could have used a refill on my coffee, but the waitress never came back, and it really was not that busy except for all the corvette folk! Good place to grab breakfast!

Hidden gem tucked off the Hartford rd. There isn't much to rave about in this area but the sunshine grill is a nice treat. They have a surprisingly good beer selection. Baked cakes and pies and good food. It's not big but they make the best of it.
(4)Virginia B.
Yum! Mostly everything we ordered was pretty darn good. Only shortcoming were the kid's meal pizzas. Soggy pita pizzas. The adult entrees were great and the beer selection is impressive. I'd like to go back and give their breakfast a try! The parking lot is packed at breakfast time.
(4)Kathleen M.
Disappointed. This was my first visit. I ordered the two egg platter. The scrambled eggs had some kind of additive. The turkey sausage must have been precooked. It looked like it was grilled again so it was super dry. The home fries were burnt and greasy. The bagel was ok but the amount of butter put on the bagel was enough to induce a heart attack. No fresh squeezed juices. Double T Diner would have been better- and trust me it really pains me to say that. To the Manager who responded: I wish I still had my receipt!!! I would post a picture of it to PROVE I was at your restaurant. There is no way you don't add something to the eggs, unless they were cooked in a dirty pan??? I make just eggs at my house, how come they don't have brown specks in them? If the turkey sausage was fresh it was extremely overcooked. The bagel was buttered and yes there was butter on the table as well. Again, potatoes were burned black and greasy. I'm making my review one star since you felt like you needed to call me a liar. I assure you I'm not lying and I was at your location today and we certainly won't be returning.
(1)Irene M.
Stoped in today for some delicious fish tacos to celebrate cinco de mayo! Wait staff was excellent...i was greated with friendly smiles and great attentivness from everyone on staff. Got a peice of dessert to go which was to die for! Cant wait to come back!!
(5)Melissa M.
Awesome local restaurant!!! Love this place. Great food and beverage selection! You will not be disappointed.
(5)Judith A.
My guy and I love this place. It's off the beaten path so it's good for when all the local places are packed. They have really good salads and burgers. But my all time favorite is the spinach pie. Best spanakopita ever. Full size portion at a small plate price. Put that together with a cup of crab soup and you can't beat it. You owe it to yourself to try this place out.
(4)D H.
Very disappointing. The cream chipped beef is mostly cream with a bit of chipped beef. And it is very finely chipped. The home fries are good though, but thats about it. The place is actually a dump. I expected it to be cleaner inside. There were a lot of flies flying around when we were there. Hard to keep them from landing on food. Will not return and will def nof recommend to a friend.
(1)Lou P.
Again no complaints only praise. The rib special was great. Good smoky flavor and plenty of meat on the bone. String beans had a tomato sauce light. Good mac and cheese.

My fiance and I stopped in yesterday and were pleasantly surprised. From the freshness to the taste of your BBQ ribs, corn and scrumptious homemade Mac n Cheese - it was by far the VERY BEST ribs we have ever eaten. Hats off to the owners Bill and Effie, Dave and Sarah our server. Outstanding job!!! We will be back and thank you for making our visit so memorable.
(5)Laura D.
What happened?? I used to love this place - homey and really decent food. But recently things have gone south and my last few visits the food has been lousy. (I mean, honestly, how is it even possible to make a chicken club flavorless?) Several other dishes were really salt heavy. This is my local spot so I'm sad to see this happen. Apparently it's the same owner but new management and I don't know if this is the reason. But looking at the "new" menu it seems they are trying to be something they're not. They should go back to what they do best - Greek dishes, sandwiches, breakfast. I really hope they can turn it around. (The waitstaff and those fantastic desserts are still great - it's just the food that's changed.)
(2)Donna M.
Love our neighborhood gem. We eat there 2 times a month. The food is always good and great selections of beer and wine. Love the Sangria. We love the servers. They are always friendly and accommodating.
(5)Sally M.
This place was recommended to us for lunch after we went blueberry picking at Hybridoma farms. We wanted something nearby and casual enough to accommodate two sweaty people. It's not hole-in-the wall casual, it has a nice calm atmosphere but lovely decor. We were delighted about the drink specials - moscow mules. They hit the spot. I went with the lamb burger which was deeeelicious, juicy even though I got it well done. I have nothing to compare it to, but since Greek fusion is kind of their thing, I'd say give those items on a the menu a try. They have a good amount of healthy options. Service was good too.
(4)Kelsey O.
We go here for breakfast often. Love their selection, everything we have had has been great. Good waitstaff, and pretty fast service, even though it always seems fairly busy. The only downside is the dessert selection. Mostly cakes, which look tasty and sound good, but are dry (no simple syrup) and iced with an American buttercream.
(4)Charles W.
Had many of the greek specialties here...but the Rockfish Rockefeller (not greek) is to die for!!!
(4)Jason M.
This is a really nice restaurant- good food, reasonable prices, and friendly staff. Really enjoyed the Arizona omelette and the portions were rather large! They have a great eggs benedict!
(4)Drake C.
I quite honestly love this place. I love the feel of it, and the food matches the feel to a T. This place is like walking into a a room of your grandfathers old sweaters. In the best possible way. It's cosey, homey and nostalgic. Just something about it makes you feel so, warm and fuzzy, and like I said, the food matches this cosey, homey and nostalgia feel. It's like being served by your grandma again when you were a kid. It's a great feeling. This place is wonderful and I love it. I highly recommend giving it a try. If you are looking for a fancy meal, this is not the place for you. If you want a bit of grandmas cooking or a nice hearty meal, COME ON IN!

Yummy! This was my first time here and I left feeling totally satisfied. The breakfast choices are impressive -unique and delicious, definitely something for everyone. I'm a boring eggs and bacon gal, but my husband loved his Jersey omelet. It was huge, not skimpy on the ingredients and full of flavor. It came with toast and home fries so plenty of food for big eaters (or post-NYE drinkers in our case). Great service, delicious food and coffee, we'll definitely be back!
(4)Dana L.
I went here for breakfast. The food was good, not bad at all, but nothing was omg so good I have to come back here. I'd say it's a safe place to eat breakfast but nothing over the top. We ordered an omelette meal with fried potatoes, blueberry pancakes, chocolate chip banana pancakes & coffee. Btw: The coffee is weak.
(4)Tierra C.
First experience was breakfast. Although it wasn't bad, it wasn't anything spectacular. Gave it a second chance with lunch. I asked for a drink I saw a sign for in the entrance. They came to the table to ask what went in it. I had to point them in the direction of their advertisement. Ordered a charred portobello wrap. They brought me a panini. They fixed it although my instincts thought otherwise. Found a few hairs in my meal by the end and developed horrible stomach cramps. Won't explain what went down after that. Boyfriend seemed fine with his meal tho. My luck maybe. Not worth it anyway.
(1)James S.
Great food. The deep fried picked are really good. The Mac n cheese is one my favorite sides. I haven't had a bad meal here yet. A really nice selection of craft beers and reasonably priced as well.
(5)Tony D.
Amazing place! Totally worth the trip off the interstate. As part of my visiting 50 states trek I stopped here due to other yelpers. The place holds maybe 50 people. There is also a nice small outdoor area with 3 tables. The staff was very friendly and inviting. My waitress even helped me plug in my phone. The outlets were in the ceiling! If Alina is working she is a wonderfully helpful and attentive employee. So sit in her section. I had eggs Benedict, which were well prepared. They were good. I also had to try the biscuits and gravy. On the menus it is listed as a side of sausage gravy. This was amazing. I am constantly in search of good b n' g and this place has it, although somewhat hidden. I also had a Bloody Mary which was a nice touch. The prices were very reasonable, with each entree under 9.00. If I ever come back through the area I will defiantly come back.
(5)Dan M.
I really enjoyed this place. The food (Reuben Sandwich) was excellent. Service was awesome and I really liked the whole atmosphere. They have a great menu with reasonable prices. I would recommend this place to everyone.
(4)Jessica H.
Family friendly... I.e. Waitstaff is always friendly to the baby, my hubs likes the beer selection and the big kids like the food! Moussaka, salads (dressing on the table is awesome), Greek platters, lamb burger, and eastern sampler are my faves! Dessert always looks better than it is, except in the case of the rice pudding, that stuff is awesome! I love this place!
(5)Andrea C.
Hubby and I went for a quiet breakfast and the food was great. We had quick service and delicious omelets. Home fries were not desirable.
(4)Patti L.
Love this place! Had dinner here tonight and I had the "Tenderloin and Shrimp" Kabobs with Spanish rice and Greek salad. First, I NEVER finish my dinner, always too full and get a doggie bag. Not tonight, I ate every bite (okay, not all of the rice - but it was delish-- I was too full)! Although I love both steak and shrimp this was still something I do not "normally" order and I was so glad I did!! My husband got the fish and chips, he too finished 100%. The Greek salad that came with my entree was great and we also had a spinach pie app that was very good. Why four and not five stars you wonder? I must reserve five stars for higher end restaurants, but this place is a definite for the "one to try or return to" category!
(4)Niran A.
I work in the Kingsville area and the lunch/dining options are truly limited. While there is an abundance of crap Italian food in the area, it is nice to see that a place like Sunshine Grill is doing food justice. The menu is comparable to a diner without the diner ambience or atmosphere. There is everything from breakfast, hearty sandwiches, American style platters as well as Greek classics. After sampling a bunch of items on the menu I can confidently say that almost everything is very delicious. The falafel salad is a wonderful vegetarian and healthy lunch option. The beef and turkey platters with mash potatoes and gravy are a great hearty option on a cold day. My favorite item on the menu is the hot rueben sandwich. A massive classic sandwich on toasty, doughy pumpernickel swirl bread. So delicious! As you walk in there is also a large class display case which features the many homemade cakes/desserts offered at Sunshine. I don't really have a sweet tooth so I personally haven't tried the cakes but they always look very appetizing! The staff is also very friendly and dining in is always a pleasurable experience. The restaurant gets very mobbed at times, but that figures as this is truly one of the only good places to eat in the area.

Went here on Memorial Day afternoon ahead of a trip to Boordy Winery. Friendly service. Food was good, but nothing to write home about. I had the fish carnitas, essentially a Thai-style taco with rockfish - the sweet chili sauce was delicious, but the fresh didn't taste all that fresh (I have extra high standards of seafood quality living in a coastal city). My husband had the lamb gyro and seemed satisfied with it, but not excited. Perhaps there are better choices on the vast menu, but we didn't think to explore them. In all fairness, I did not check Yelp before heading over - may have given me clues as to the best dishes to order (even breakfast items). Perhaps I'd go back again for the breakfast if visiting Dejon or another spot in the area.

We love this place and probably eat here more frequently than any other. My husband loves trying new beers and I love the wait staff. Now with the outdoor seating, it's even better.

I love this place! My favorite is the sunshine salad with grilled chicken , it is so good! Also, the beer selection is out of this world. Great atmosphere great food, always a good place to go and enjoy the evening.

Our family is a frequent flyer at the Sunshine Grill. The kids love to get the pancakes anytime they come, which are always good. Last night I had the bison burger, which was very good. It was cooked to a nice medium rare, and came with sweet potato fires. The service is always great, and they have a very good craft beer selection. No drafts, but well over 50 bottles to choose from. This is a nice hidden gem with great service, large portions, and good prices.

Loved it!! Check out our check in for details. Thank you Sarah for the wonderful service!!

Last evening my beautiful lady and I went back to the sunshine grill. We have returned many time because the food and service are so good. I could tell you everything we have eaten but the short of it is that we have never been disappointed. It is a little of the path but that adds to the experience !
(4)Lou P.
Again no complaints only praise. The rib special was great. Good smoky flavor and plenty of meat on the bone. String beans had a tomato sauce light. Good mac and cheese. Staff polite and helpful as always. The lobster potpie was full of lobster and made with chunks of crust mixed in. My companion said it was the best she ever had.
(5)Elisa L.
My fiance and I stopped in yesterday and were pleasantly surprised. From the freshness to the taste of your BBQ ribs, corn and scrumptious homemade Mac n Cheese - it was by far the VERY BEST ribs we have ever eaten. Hats off to the owners Bill and Effie, Dave and Sarah our server. Outstanding job!!! We will be back and thank you for making our visit so memorable.

Disappointed. This was my first visit. I ordered the two egg platter. The scrambled eggs had some kind of additive. The turkey sausage must have been precooked. It looked like it was grilled again so it was super dry. The home fries were burnt and greasy. The bagel was ok but the amount of butter put on the bagel was enough to induce a heart attack. No fresh squeezed juices. Double T Diner would have been better- and trust me it really pains me to say that. To the Manager who responded: I wish I still had my receipt!!! I would post a picture of it to PROVE I was at your restaurant. There is no way you don't add something to the eggs, unless they were cooked in a dirty pan??? I make just eggs at my house, how come they don't have brown specks in them? If the turkey sausage was fresh it was extremely overcooked. The bagel was buttered and yes there was butter on the table as well. Again, potatoes were burned black and greasy. I'm making my review one star since you felt like you needed to call me a liar. I assure you I'm not lying and I was at your location today and we certainly won't be returning.

Stoped in today for some delicious fish tacos to celebrate cinco de mayo! Wait staff was excellent...i was greated with friendly smiles and great attentivness from everyone on staff. Got a peice of dessert to go which was to die for! Cant wait to come back!!
(5)Melissa M.
Awesome local restaurant!!! Love this place. Great food and beverage selection! You will not be disappointed.
(5)Judith A.
My guy and I love this place. It's off the beaten path so it's good for when all the local places are packed. They have really good salads and burgers. But my all time favorite is the spinach pie. Best spanakopita ever. Full size portion at a small plate price. Put that together with a cup of crab soup and you can't beat it. You owe it to yourself to try this place out.
(4)D H.
Very disappointing. The cream chipped beef is mostly cream with a bit of chipped beef. And it is very finely chipped. The home fries are good though, but thats about it. The place is actually a dump. I expected it to be cleaner inside. There were a lot of flies flying around when we were there. Hard to keep them from landing on food. Will not return and will def nof recommend to a friend.
(1)Nick B.
Hidden gem tucked off the Hartford rd. There isn't much to rave about in this area but the sunshine grill is a nice treat. They have a surprisingly good beer selection. Baked cakes and pies and good food. It's not big but they make the best of it.
(4)Virginia B.
Yum! Mostly everything we ordered was pretty darn good. Only shortcoming were the kid's meal pizzas. Soggy pita pizzas. The adult entrees were great and the beer selection is impressive. I'd like to go back and give their breakfast a try! The parking lot is packed at breakfast time.
(4)Laura D.
What happened?? I used to love this place - homey and really decent food. But recently things have gone south and my last few visits the food has been lousy. (I mean, honestly, how is it even possible to make a chicken club flavorless?) Several other dishes were really salt heavy. This is my local spot so I'm sad to see this happen. Apparently it's the same owner but new management and I don't know if this is the reason. But looking at the "new" menu it seems they are trying to be something they're not. They should go back to what they do best - Greek dishes, sandwiches, breakfast. I really hope they can turn it around. (The waitstaff and those fantastic desserts are still great - it's just the food that's changed.)
(2)Donna M.
Love our neighborhood gem. We eat there 2 times a month. The food is always good and great selections of beer and wine. Love the Sangria. We love the servers. They are always friendly and accommodating.
(5)Sally M.
This place was recommended to us for lunch after we went blueberry picking at Hybridoma farms. We wanted something nearby and casual enough to accommodate two sweaty people. It's not hole-in-the wall casual, it has a nice calm atmosphere but lovely decor. We were delighted about the drink specials - moscow mules. They hit the spot. I went with the lamb burger which was deeeelicious, juicy even though I got it well done. I have nothing to compare it to, but since Greek fusion is kind of their thing, I'd say give those items on a the menu a try. They have a good amount of healthy options. Service was good too.
(4)Kelsey O.
We go here for breakfast often. Love their selection, everything we have had has been great. Good waitstaff, and pretty fast service, even though it always seems fairly busy. The only downside is the dessert selection. Mostly cakes, which look tasty and sound good, but are dry (no simple syrup) and iced with an American buttercream.
(4)Charles W.
Had many of the greek specialties here...but the Rockfish Rockefeller (not greek) is to die for!!!
(4)Jason M.
This is a really nice restaurant- good food, reasonable prices, and friendly staff. Really enjoyed the Arizona omelette and the portions were rather large! They have a great eggs benedict!
(4)Drake C.
I quite honestly love this place. I love the feel of it, and the food matches the feel to a T. This place is like walking into a a room of your grandfathers old sweaters. In the best possible way. It's cosey, homey and nostalgic. Just something about it makes you feel so, warm and fuzzy, and like I said, the food matches this cosey, homey and nostalgia feel. It's like being served by your grandma again when you were a kid. It's a great feeling. This place is wonderful and I love it. I highly recommend giving it a try. If you are looking for a fancy meal, this is not the place for you. If you want a bit of grandmas cooking or a nice hearty meal, COME ON IN!
(5)Rob V.
Great new menu. Best Greek food I've had in awhile and like the craft beers selection. Love the relaxed country setting and outdoor seating too.
(5)Vanisha O.
Nice staff, prompt and attentive and idk if I was super hungry or of their good was THAT good! Probably a bit of both though lol. Cheap with moderate portions, if you're in the area check them out.
(5)Judith A.
Best spinach pie ever! Small plate price, dinner sized portion. My guy had an Angus burger and he said it's marvelous. Sit on the outside porch if you can. It's warm even in cold weather. Service is friendly and on point. An off the beaten path gem.
(4)Meena A.
Yummy! This was my first time here and I left feeling totally satisfied. The breakfast choices are impressive -unique and delicious, definitely something for everyone. I'm a boring eggs and bacon gal, but my husband loved his Jersey omelet. It was huge, not skimpy on the ingredients and full of flavor. It came with toast and home fries so plenty of food for big eaters (or post-NYE drinkers in our case). Great service, delicious food and coffee, we'll definitely be back!
(4)Dana L.
I went here for breakfast. The food was good, not bad at all, but nothing was omg so good I have to come back here. I'd say it's a safe place to eat breakfast but nothing over the top. We ordered an omelette meal with fried potatoes, blueberry pancakes, chocolate chip banana pancakes & coffee. Btw: The coffee is weak.
(4)Tierra C.
First experience was breakfast. Although it wasn't bad, it wasn't anything spectacular. Gave it a second chance with lunch. I asked for a drink I saw a sign for in the entrance. They came to the table to ask what went in it. I had to point them in the direction of their advertisement. Ordered a charred portobello wrap. They brought me a panini. They fixed it although my instincts thought otherwise. Found a few hairs in my meal by the end and developed horrible stomach cramps. Won't explain what went down after that. Boyfriend seemed fine with his meal tho. My luck maybe. Not worth it anyway.
(1)James S.
Great food. The deep fried picked are really good. The Mac n cheese is one my favorite sides. I haven't had a bad meal here yet. A really nice selection of craft beers and reasonably priced as well.
(5)Tony D.
Amazing place! Totally worth the trip off the interstate. As part of my visiting 50 states trek I stopped here due to other yelpers. The place holds maybe 50 people. There is also a nice small outdoor area with 3 tables. The staff was very friendly and inviting. My waitress even helped me plug in my phone. The outlets were in the ceiling! If Alina is working she is a wonderfully helpful and attentive employee. So sit in her section. I had eggs Benedict, which were well prepared. They were good. I also had to try the biscuits and gravy. On the menus it is listed as a side of sausage gravy. This was amazing. I am constantly in search of good b n' g and this place has it, although somewhat hidden. I also had a Bloody Mary which was a nice touch. The prices were very reasonable, with each entree under 9.00. If I ever come back through the area I will defiantly come back.
(5)Dan M.
I really enjoyed this place. The food (Reuben Sandwich) was excellent. Service was awesome and I really liked the whole atmosphere. They have a great menu with reasonable prices. I would recommend this place to everyone.
(4)Jessica H.
Family friendly... I.e. Waitstaff is always friendly to the baby, my hubs likes the beer selection and the big kids like the food! Moussaka, salads (dressing on the table is awesome), Greek platters, lamb burger, and eastern sampler are my faves! Dessert always looks better than it is, except in the case of the rice pudding, that stuff is awesome! I love this place!
(5)Andrea C.
Hubby and I went for a quiet breakfast and the food was great. We had quick service and delicious omelets. Home fries were not desirable.
(4)Patti L.
Love this place! Had dinner here tonight and I had the "Tenderloin and Shrimp" Kabobs with Spanish rice and Greek salad. First, I NEVER finish my dinner, always too full and get a doggie bag. Not tonight, I ate every bite (okay, not all of the rice - but it was delish-- I was too full)! Although I love both steak and shrimp this was still something I do not "normally" order and I was so glad I did!! My husband got the fish and chips, he too finished 100%. The Greek salad that came with my entree was great and we also had a spinach pie app that was very good. Why four and not five stars you wonder? I must reserve five stars for higher end restaurants, but this place is a definite for the "one to try or return to" category!
(4)Patrick P.
I've been here twice for brunch and left feeling like John Stamos after he eats some Greek yogurt.... it just doesn't get any better. Scrambled eggs cooked perfectly using farm fresh, organic eggs. Best french toast ever. Really reasonable prices as well.
(5)K C G.
Delicious breakfast. Great service. Worth the 6 mile detour off 95. Great value for the food. Nice portions and a good quality meal. Yum!
(5)Ji Y.
Random place out in no where but they sell some good food! I love how breakfast is served all day. They sell a little bit of everything!
(3)Niran A.
I work in the Kingsville area and the lunch/dining options are truly limited. While there is an abundance of crap Italian food in the area, it is nice to see that a place like Sunshine Grill is doing food justice. The menu is comparable to a diner without the diner ambience or atmosphere. There is everything from breakfast, hearty sandwiches, American style platters as well as Greek classics. After sampling a bunch of items on the menu I can confidently say that almost everything is very delicious. The falafel salad is a wonderful vegetarian and healthy lunch option. The beef and turkey platters with mash potatoes and gravy are a great hearty option on a cold day. My favorite item on the menu is the hot rueben sandwich. A massive classic sandwich on toasty, doughy pumpernickel swirl bread. So delicious! As you walk in there is also a large class display case which features the many homemade cakes/desserts offered at Sunshine. I don't really have a sweet tooth so I personally haven't tried the cakes but they always look very appetizing! The staff is also very friendly and dining in is always a pleasurable experience. The restaurant gets very mobbed at times, but that figures as this is truly one of the only good places to eat in the area.

LOVE Sunshine Grille! We go a lot because they have vegetarian options for my family member and it's close. Never had bad food there. Have been there for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and it's all good every time! Waffles are amazing, all the Greek food is so good! And it has a great atmosphere. Definitely a local favorite though so it does get busy!
(5)Andrew R.
This is a regular stop for me, breakfast, lunch and dinner. They have a liquor license now with a better than expected choice of microbrews. It is family owned and they take great pride in their service and food quality. Additionally, I have used them for catering downtown events with rave reviews.
(5)Tyler S.
I've been here twice, both for lunch and breakfast. For lunch, their sandwiches are off the hook. The first time I got a falafel sandwich, and I loved it! I definitely love the "relaxed diner" setting where it's much more casual and welcoming than your standard diner. Although this isn't much of a diner, it's almost as though you're just at somebodies house that has been revamped to look like a restaurant (which I love) For breakfast, their prices are totally cool. Serve yourself your own coffee, with unlimited refills (sign me up), Their 3-egg omelets are HUMONGO! But regardless, it was delicious. My friend got banana pancakes and eggs there, and wow they do not cheap you out on the pancakes! Even the two of us couldn't finish them! They were very very very very....delicious! Definitely give this place a try for a relaxed setting
(5)David M.
Cool place. First time here. Nicer than diner, but not opressively foo-foo. Service friendly & efficient, Sunshine Burger was terrific. Great coffee and free WiFi sealed the deal. I'll be back! Sunday brunchtime was slammed. Decided to leave & came back closer to 2pm. Bonus points: Tears For Fears accoustic playing on SiriusXM.
(5)barry k.
Sunshine Grill Goes Up In Flames! This was a good go to place for fresh food, but those days are gone! Had the fisherman platter , frozen food cooked badly, wife had stuffed shrimp, the side of green beans was mushy, either frozen or cooked all day.the man at the cash register did not know how to handle our criticism. We were not looking for a free meal and helped his uncomfortableness by telling him we just wanted to pay our bill and never come back again~!
(1)John L.
Yes, agreed on ratings. A good place to eat. Note, breakfast and lunch are no waiters so place order at counter but all good since they bring to table. Still get the feeling of service since they're all around cleaning/stocking etc....good food
(4)Kayak S.
This is one of those places I've driven by for years and finally stopped by to try. Excellent service, the waitress seated us and was very attentive as we ate our brunch. Both my wife and I enjoyed our appetizers (Village Salad and Fried Calamari) as well as our meals (Moussaka and Salmon). The other patrons seemed to be enjoying their meals as well. Overall a very nice restaurant and two people that will certainly be back for more.
(4)Max R.
I recommend the breakfast. All other fare is mediocre. The Greek cuisine is OK, I have definitely had better. The restaurant itself has nice decor and is very clean. They also serve wine and beer.
(3)Ethan D.
Great atmosphere but not sure about the food. The first visit was a Saturday morning. We received excellent service with no wait. The breakfast food was good. Oddly enough the soda was awful! We visited again two weeks later. It was 11 am but we were having breakfast. The home fries were dry and tasted microwaved. Everything else was pretty good except the soda!! It tastes dirty which made me start to question the cleanliness of the place. I don't think we will be returning.
(2)Jan M.
Had dinner with friends we were visiting in the area;extensive menu with something for everyone. Hubby had crab cake sandwich with fries and I had the turkey hot sandwich with mashed potatoes and all covered in gravy. It came out on a platter! This could easily serve 2 people. The desserts looked amazing as well. A little gem off the beaten path north of Baltimore.
(5)Pat M.
Breakfast rating only. Wifey and I have had breakfast here around 3-4 times now, and really like it overall. Being a big fan of breakfast, they get high marks from me since they offer all-day breakfast. Menu has pretty nice selection of mostly standard fare, and just about everything has been well above average. The one klunker was yesterday, when wifey tried their Greek yogurt with berries and granola. It came as 3 individual items and was just too basic. Only berries were past their prime slices of strawberry in small plastic condiment container, and granola was mediocre. Not good, especially when compared to a similar dish she had when we visited Denver. Service is usually pretty good, and staff is often nice and friendly. Prices are average. Would like to see more combo-type offerings on the menu, allowing for the sampling of a little bit of this and that.
(4)Christine G.
Great place for breakfast! What a gem! I don't live in the bel air area anymore, but was in town to visit an old friend for breakfast and we thought we would try sunshine grill and I'm so glad we did. They do breakfast right! They are so friendly and polite and the foods really delicious. Great environment to eat and relax in. All their baked goods are made in house also and are truly delicious. Like I said, what a gem. I will definitely be back!
(5)Doug C.
I had a feeling that the nearly 5 star average rating would not be warranted, and unfortunately, that was confirmed this morning at breakfast. The overriding sentiment of our part of 4 was that everyone's selection was bland. The highlight was my Belgian waffle, which was quite good. The scrambled eggs were horrendous (basically an omelette cut into pieces) and flavorless, while the side of ham was marginal. The huevos rancheros and eggs benedict were surprisingly plain. On the bright side, our service was friendly throughout. Will most likely not return though.
(2)Lola I.
Great Greek food! Great prices! I came here for lunch with some friends. The placed was packed. Its hard to get around as the seating is a little cramped. This place is a hidden gem. Highly recommend!
(4)Mark D.
I have been going here for years. Not only is the food and service consistently good, the owner supports the greater Kingsville area in many ways including car shows, parades, movie nights and open mics.
(5)Allison H.
This place may have been the premier quaint locale to grab breakfast or lunch in its hay day, but do not be fooled by the charming exterior. This place really does not know how to serve a decent plate of food. I've given this restaurant plenty of well-meaning tries, and each time I have been disappointed. I sampled the Belgian waffle; mediocre at best. The price was far too high for the single waffle I received, lightly dressed with a small dollop of whipped cream. Though discouraged by the less than worthwhile waffle, I thought I ought to order some Greek fare. The falafel sandwich was soggy and unlike any falafel I had tasted before, and not in a good way. For an authentic falafel sandwich, try someplace else. The most recent venture was a reluctant choice. My eggs, though supposed to be 'over medium' were cooked very easy. My toast was cold and my waitress did not give me any butter or jam. My friend ordered a pricey plate of huevos rancheros, which primarily consisted of a heaping pile of disgustingly salty canned retried beans. She was so disgusted she had to buy a donut at a bakery to get the taste out of her mouth. Here's the thing about the sunshine grill: people come here because it's the only diner in town. Trust me, make the trek into Towson or Perry Hall and actually get a decent meal.
(1)Drew T.
I dislike Yelps 5-star system. This place is great, by the way, but let me get on a tangent here. You either need to be 2 stars, 4 stars, or 6 stars. 5 stars just doesn't do what it needs to do. The 2-star system is great. Either you like it, or you don't. Nothing in the middle. Like or Dislike. The 4-star system allows for a little more description, with a Hate it, Dislike it, Like it, or Love it. Now the 5-star system is where it all hits the fan. What exactly does that 5th (or the center star, as we shall now call it) star get you? Indifference? Hate it, Dislike it, Lacking a useful opinion, Like it, Love it? No no no, this is why you need my patented 6-star system. It allows for the extremes. This takes the 4-star system and adds a Horrible experience and Amazing experience to either end of the scale. It is for truly great or truly useless restaurant. Which is the only true way to explain the scale of the different restaurants you will find in a given city. So, as I slowly step down from my soap box, while I give this restaurant 5 stars, it's certainly not on the level of Charleston or Blue Hill Tavern, or any of the other elite dining in the Baltimore area. But i want to make sure I emphasize how good it is for it's breakfast, baked goods, and greek food. It's a 5 on a scale of 1-5, and also a 5 on a scale of 1-6. My patented scale of 1-6.
(5)Kerry A.
So glad we came here! As soon as we stepped inside, we knew we were in for a great breakfast! The daily specials all looked wonderful, but we were on a breakfast mission! We ordered the eggs benny, farmers omelette, sausage gravy, and a side of bacon. Although the eggs were slightly overlooked for my friends liking, the hollandaise sauce was to die for. The omelette was massive and came with toast and home fries- brought plenty of left overs home! I ordered a side of sausage gravy and to my surprise, it had biscuits under it! I didn't want the biscuits- just the gravy and when I let my waitress know, she was quick to bring an additional cup of gravy. The sausage gravy is amazing! Perfectly spiced, piping hot, and wonderful on home fries (or anything edible). The side of bacon was ordered extra crispy and it was cooked perfectly! Usually, extra crispy comes out charred or still gooey but this bacon was perfect! For two eggs benny, a farmers omelette, sausage gravy, bacon, and three drinks- the total was under $50 so it was a great value with large portions! I can't wait to come back!
(5)S W.
Where shall I start? Construction outside-not attractive. SLOW service. Waitress argues with you about what you ordered? Really, can't you just go and make it right? Please ask us if we need anything, like a refill on our drink or if our food is OK. Loud cackling women in the corner whose voices reverberate on the metal ceiling which is pretty, but not good for a restaurants acoustics. Food was mediocre. When giving a customer the corner piece of spinach pie from a large pan it is mostly phyllo and hardly any filling. Think about this when serving someone. Pipes that run along the ceiling that sweat and drip on customers backs. Hello health department. Don't bother to ask to speak to the management. They are argumentative and not customer friendly even when they are in the wrong. Sorry folks, we won't be back.
(1)Anita G.
Am sitting here at Sunshine Grille, and it's absolutely wonderful ! The Jersey omelette is spicy, but not too spicy. The potatoes and biscuits are perfect comfort food. Coffee tastes great (but I would love to see a caramel coffee offered). I am in the area on a temporary basis, and I will make sure I come back soon.
(5)Carrie S.
Greek salad was yummy. My friend had the pasticcio and the gnu at the next table had a good looking suvla. The chairs are terrible and it was not very clean. Service was decent, but nothing special.
(3)Rachel L.
1st let me say - I've been to Sunshine Grill many, many times and it's been really, really good. I've always gone during the week, and during the day. I would say it's gotten consistently better. I LOVED this place. Now today - I was just so, so disappointed. There were quite a few young folks just hanging around behind the counter laughing and having a great time and they kinda forgot customers were coming in. OK - I was young once - I get it. But the food - WTH? Waited so long for the mussels appetizer, I finally asked the waitress if she was aware we wanted it first and not along with the rest of the order. "Oh yeah - the person who cooks is wasn't here but then they were and it should be out soon." Huh? Then - mussels in a water/butter broth with soggy cheese bread - sigh. Corned beef and cabbage was just awful and not even consistently warm - ugh. My burger of the day was clearly not made today and was kinda greasy. They took the corned beef off the tab - thanks - that was the right thing to do. I will say tho that the sangria is just so, so good! Love it! What was missing today? The owners.. I wonder if they know what goes on when they're away - I'm hoping they find out and make it right. It would be such a shame for them to let such a wonderful restaurant lose it's reputation because the staff was more interested in having fun than providing the usual above standard service and cuisine. My husband doesn't want to go back but I'll definitely give them another try - maybe not on a saturday afternoon tho.
(3)Victor R.
Great little place to go. Great food and friendly service. Will definitely go back!
(4)Britni B.
Loved the atmosphere and the food was amazing. During daytime you order at the counter and seat yourself. Huge menu. Boyfriend had the cheese steak, I had a greek platter. Amazing. Will come back for more!
(5)Johanna G.
Very consistant, lots to choose from. Great little gem. We eat here every time we are in town. Wish we had a place like this near our home in CA.
(4)Swivelneck D.
went here for breakfast. bad service and corned beef hash was out of a can and burnt. eggs were also overdone, toast was underdone, hash browns were only thing good. orange juice was real but from concentrate and out of machine. no clue how people are giving this so many stars. if you think this place is worth 4-5 stars as many seem to , you should try places that are true 4-5 star breakfast/brunch places (ms. Shirley's/woodberry/petit Louis/etc). [This next section is a response to the restaurant's response: I did not compare the restaurant to Woodberry. I didn't expect it to be Woodberry but if a place is getting 5 stars from reviewers, it needs to be worthy. That was more a comment about reviewers in a way. I was pointing out that the posters are giving this place 5 stars need to go to a place that merits 5 stars. That is a different thing. Had Sunshine done its job at its target price/style, it could have gotten 3-4 stars. I am not a snob, particularly about breakfast. One of my favorite breakfast places is municipal golf course because you can't improve on a perfectly fried egg and corned beef hash, even at a top restaurant. This was not about the level of restaurant, it was about execution. If I am up there again hiking, and it fits my schedule, I may give the restaurant another shot. This is because I do respect businesses (as someone who has ones several) and the restaurant taking the time to rationally respond is respected and appreciated. However, a couple of points in my review are valid even if the execution was better on the eggs and toast -- the orange juice was a mix and the corned beef was clearly processed/out of a can. Those going there thinking that this is worthy of 4-5 stars need to see the review history. The place seems to get 5 stars or 1 star and nothing in between. It is great that there is a loyal local following, but those using Yelp are expecting more when they see 4-5 stars. ]

I went here about a year ago and I had a burger that left quite an impression on me. I've been wondering lately if it was a case of the further removed, the better it seemed. So today I was up in the area and decided to stop by for lunch. I love the atmosphere of the place. Very low key. Bright and happy feeling. It's got a very local mom & pop welcoming feel. All of the staff were friendly and patient and accommodating. I ordered the Angus burger w/no mayo. I ordered it medium rare and after taking a bite of this behemoth of a burger, loaded with fixins, was very pleased to see a juicy red center. The burger was messy, but absolutely delicious. Definitely in the top 4 or 5 of burgers I've ever had. The french fries were extra. They were crispy and adequately seasoned, nothing spectacular but good. The burger was the star. A nice bonus for this place -- they have a very good craft beer selection for a diner-type place. And it was cheap. It definitely won't be another year before I'm back

If you are hungry for breakfast...this is the place for you if you are north of Baltimore. I had two eggs, bacon (a good serving of it), and two large piece of french toast for $6.99 I think. Maybe $7.99. It was your average breakfast menu but tasty and a lot of it. I could have used a refill on my coffee, but the waitress never came back, and it really was not that busy except for all the corvette folk! Good place to grab breakfast!
