Let me preface this review by saying I'm not really a breakfast food fan. I know that's blasphemy. I'm sorry.
Anyway, this place is probably the best one I've tried here in Vegas. I LOVE the Glen's wrap (which is also excellent leftover, by the way). I love that I can sub the hash browns (which are good, but oh so greasy) for cottage cheese.
I'm glad I waited to review this place until I had visited a few times, because the first visit was kinda... meh. Maybe three stars at best. Some of the menu items are just so-so, and I just don't have a knack for picking winners. Once I read other reviews and stumbled upon the Glen's wrap, I fell in love. -

Nice to see a place open early for us working stiffs. Sunrise Cafe opens at 7:00 am and my waiter was friendly and informative of what was popular here.
The waiter suggested several recommendations but I went with the Glenn's wrap - Grilled diced chicken, egg whites, avocado, Swiss cheese and served on a chipotle tortilla. This was filling, different and yummy tasting.
I enjoyed the Sunrise Cafe and recommend this place over the same old fast food places. They have a good selection and solid service. -
Review from Rockne H.
Holy brunchalicious! A friend and I decided to go here today to celelbrate Easter Sunday and boy was I happy I went!
I wasn't completely in the mood for breakfast food, so I got the ham and swiss melt sandwich for $7.29 and added eggs to the sandwich. It was served on Rye bread with mustard. Accompanied on the side were slices of pickles and I chose a side of potato salad. Thiis meal was super! Toasted, buttered Rye, melted swiss, salted ham and the mustard really tied everything together. The potato salad was not too creamy and had a lot of potato chunks. I enjoyed my meal a lot.
This place is new, fresh and clean. The servers are super nice and efficient. I never felt rushed or neglected. If you're ever in the area, you have got to try this place out. They have EVERYTHING you need to get your day started.Listed in: Brunch-a-licious!

After 5 visits, this has quickly become my favorite breakfast in Las Vegas. The patio and dog- friendly vibe rocks. The service is always friendly and attentive.
Most importantly, the food is delicious! I have literally fallen in love with Jacobs slamming platter. It is for those who simply cannot decide. For some, like myself, you don't want to give up your buttered toast and potatoes for a side of pancakes. With the platter, you get it all! Yay! I often want just a few bites of yummy pancakes and not an entire sugar loaded breakfast. Sunrise gives you 4 perfect little silver dollar pancakes to curb your sweet cravings without sending you into an AM diabetic coma!
Other winners include the omelets with tasty additions such as creamy garlic sauce and sliced avocado. Corned beef hash is good stuff as well.
All in all, a 5 star breakfast you'll return to over and over again. -
Review from Jason C.
Las Vegas, NV
This is a great breakfast place.
I sat at the counter... that kinda adds to the whole breakfast counter ambiance thing. The place was clean. They have excellent service here.
The menu had the usuals for breakfast... but they also have some twists on the regular items. The eggs benedict was on a bagel. I liked that.
I had the eggs benedict with jalepenos and sausage. It was real good. The hollandaise sauce wasn't too rich, it was a little lighter. When I was done eating I just felt really good.
** I would give it 5 stars but I paid $16 for breakfast (eggs bene - coffee - tip)... maybe I am cheap or just stuck in time where breakfast should be less than $10. ** -

Expect the orders to cost about $7-9, and I think that's a pretty good deal for getting big portions for breakfast. I thought to stop by here a couple of times since they open right after I get off of work, and they're on the way home.
They have an outdoor eating area, and this place does get fairly busy on the weekends. it is a cafe which revolves around a pet friendly, family environment. I think what I love about the place is that although they serve items that you can usually get from other cafe's, some of their items are different from other places.
I have ordered the STEAK AND EGG WRAP for $8.29 and its huge! It comes with potatos on the side so you don't feel like you've spent so much on just the wrap. You also have the option of the TYPE of wrap you'd like. You can do wheat, chipotle, or sundried tomatoe. I usually get the Sundried. If you're a meat lover and all protien. Definitely get the Steak and Egg wrap. It's deliscious and does contain big chunks of steak slices so you feel satisfied.
I've also tried the STEVIE T'S WRAP which is also deliscious but expect it to be REALLY filling and sweet thanks to the pancake and maple syrup. It was a good wrap, but the sweetness and thickness of the wrap honestly doesn't satisfy my appetite. It just makes you feel like the wrap itself is filling up my stomach for the sake of it. BUT! Don't be discouraged. If you're into sweetness and pancakes definitely go for the wrap. It'll be worth while.
The service is great, but because they are always busy they don't conversate so much with you. They do get the job done though, and someone is always asking if you need helped or if you have been served. -

This place got it going on! Service is unbelievably fast and the atmosphere is great.
I had the "Leo's Sandwich" and it was definitely a good choice. Even the water tastes good here.
The only reason I am not giving this place 5 stars is because they haven't really gotten the hang of the wait list. It seems sort of unorganized and it didn't help that someone else used my name to be seated. -

My wife and I were in town on vacation and on the way back to Az we were looking for something other than casino breakfast and chain resturants. This place hit the spot, very clean, very friendly service and the food was excellent. They have all the standard fair,eggs Benedict which is what I ordered, well above average. My wife tried one of their unique items, a sausage pancake egg and cheese wrap with syrup. She was scared to order it but was oh so glad she did. Great food and service. We will be back the next time we visit.

My best friend who's a Vegas local took me here for brunch. Your typical American breakfast food with sort of a mexican/latin touch... Denny's with a slight twist. LARGE PORTIONS. Come here if you're looking for a very filling hearty meal. Great service, the waitresses are very attentive and polite. I would say this place is aiiiiiiiiiight, but not anything mind-blowing. Definitely not a spot I would crave or feel the need to return to.

Yes fellow Yelpers, I love yet another breakfast/lunch café. I can't help it! Sunrise Café is a bustling little café in a convenient location, right off the highway. And next to a Starbucks, a bonus in my book.
Huge selection so get to reading when you sit and with breakfast choices as good as the lunch choices, you'll have to deal with a battle within yourself regarding which meal to show some love. I absolutely love the Glenn Wrap, mainly because I have a severe Frank's Red Hot addiction that governs my ordering patterns just about everywhere I go. I love their hash browns too, not greasy or too seasoned, just right. For lunch I've made sweet food love to the Reuben and was not disappointed.
The staff is super friendly and you can chill at the counter seating or choose from a table or booth. You can even sit outside if the weather is to your liking. Bring Fido or Rover along, they provide dog treats and water for their canine customers. If you're hitting this place up on a weekend be prepared for a little wait. Check out the shelves as you walk in, they've got some pretty cool old school candy. Who doesn't need some Big League Chew in their life?
I could spend the rest of my life eating at places in this shopping center, for realz. Go support a local business and enjoy Sunrise Café. -

I read the reviews on Yelp, and the Original Sunrise Cafe sounded just like what I wanted for breakfast. A non corporate, family owned, great breakfast place, for a reasonable price. The Original Sunrise Cafe, did the trick. Their breakfast menu is full of egg whites omelets, they have cottage cheese, bagels, peanut butter, you name it. I didn't order pancakes, but they looked great!
I talked to the owners, Andrew and Angela, about opening in the San Fernando Valley, CA., so I wouldn't have to drive almost 300 miles to their place, and believe it or not, they sounded interested. I'll keep my fingers crossed!
In the meantime, if you go to Vegas, the 9 mile detour (from the Strip) is well worth it. -

Thanks to Yelp this is our new Saturday morning Vegas-visit tradition. We love the breakfast at this place, and although it's been packed whenever we come, we never have to wait too long for a table. We've come with a group as big as 7, and with just the 2 of us as well, and the wait was short both times.
I love the Chester's Way corned beef hash, and my husband gets the French Toast platter. They are delish! If I didn't love the Chester's Way so much I'd probably try something else, but for now I'll stick to the classics.
Definitely recommend for a weekend late breakfast spot away from the crazy buffets. -

Excellent food, interesting menu selections and a nice local experience.
The food was tasty with what seems to be a focus on healthiness. Several items come with egg whites but are super tasty!
A 10-15 minute trip from the strip. It's nice to see normal prices.

So i came here with my fam bam on a Saturday around 11:00AM and we waited for about 5 minutes for a half booth (not bad!) I ordered the eggs benedict with sausage and jalapenos, my hubby had a stack of pancakes.
Let me start with the pancakes: They were a good size about the size of a medium dinner plate. One of the pancake seemed a little over cooked as the outside was a bit darker then the other two and a little tougher. The give a small amount of syrup but you can always ask for more.
Eggs benedict: The hollandaise was just so so meaning it was light but too buttery and needed a little kick (maybe a hint of fresh lemon juice). There was nothing special about the sausage just your typical sausage patty. The touch of jalapenos was good; however it was drenched in jalapenos so it over powered everything else. The eggs were perfectly poached and everything was served on top of an original bagel. I've had eggs benedict on a traditional english muffin, croissant, and even hawaiian bread and I have to admit having it on a bagel is not something I particularly care for. It is just too much.
As for the potatoes: they're hash brown style cut a little thicker then your traditional hash browns. Their grilled to a crisp on the outside and soft to the bite. Made with lotsa butter though that's why it tasted so good.
At the end of our meal they gave my 4 year old a pick at their treasure chest and that made him happy. I would come back and maybe try something different. So, just A-ok for now...maybe will get a better rating next time. -

I was introduced to this place a few years ago by my ex-boyfriend, and ever since, I have been addicted! They are open 7am-3pm, 7 days a week I believe. The food here has always been amazing, and anyone I take there is delighted as well. I have been here a plethora of times and never had one complaint.
If you do happen to go on a Saturday or Sunday (Especially Sunday) morning, be prepared to wait ~15-20 minutes. The time goes by fast and you normally do not wait long, but there are around 30 tables & bar area (not alcoholic). People are usually considerate though, and if the place is packed, customers eat and go so others can sit! -

It's all about the Porkchop and Applesauce! It was oh so tasty and I had every bite... that I took off my boyfriend's plate. ;) I ordered one of their eggs benedict and the flavors were good, too, but the egg was a bit overcooked.
Our waitress was really sweet, too, which made the experience even better. It was busy, yet she made the effort to see if we were okay throughout the meal.
The side of potatoes was good, but could use some more crispyness.
Overall, this is a really cute place to bring friends or family. -

Five stars on food alone! Great menu selection of awesome tasty food.
By far the best selection of Eggs Benedict dishes (5), and only ~$10ea. I ate the Fiest Benedict - which had a toasted bagel, basted egg (perfectly cooked), Jalapeno Bacon, and pepper jack cheese. It was coated with a spicy hollandaise sauce, that was simply devine. The best Eggs Benedict I've ever eaten. Very unique. I loved it. Even the potatoes had great flavor and crispness.
My friend had the coolest Banana Cream Pie Pancakes... banana syrup, bananas on top, and dulce de leche whipped butter!!! YUMMMM. Comes with 3 cakes. The coolest thing by far was the Jalapeno Bacon! Excellent flavor, worth the money to have a taste of this. Several pieces to a side, so it's a good value.
The place was very busy, as it was Sunday morning, but we still managed to get a table inside right away. There is also patio seating, breakfast bar seating, tables or booths. Bigger on the inside than it looks on the outside. Server was very nice and very prompt. When should couldn't make it over, she sent a runner. So our drinks, food, and general needs were quickly attended to.
I don't know why anyone would eat at IHOP or Denny's with this little gem just down the road on Eastern & 215. Overall great place. Could totally make this a Sunday habit. :) -

I love Sunrise Cafe, I love it so much that my husband and I often go once a weekend. Now, you may call me biased since they have the IC bomber sandwich and I went to Ithaca College, but I assure you this only got them 1 of my 4 stars :)
My husband and I generally split the Jacob's slammin platter which is an array of pancakes, eggs, bacon, sausage, ham, breakfast potatoes, and a bagel. More than enough food for the two of us. This place is a bit pricey, but again not so bad if you are splitting. I have also tried the banana cream pancakes and I could eat a vat of the delicious dulce de leche butter. I am also a huge fan of the chicken chipotle wrap, the homemade chipotle ranch is awesome! Their sandwiches are just as good as their breakfast, but there is nothing special about the macaroni or potato salad. I am addicted to french fries and I am always a little disappointed when restaurants don't have a fryer. I wish that they would offer their breakfast potatoes as a side, which they do for an additional fee.
If you wake up this weekend looking for a fabulous brunch, head on down to Sunrise Cafe and you won't be disappointed. -

One thing that Vegas lacks from Cali is the abundance of small
mom and pop place that have great food and service. Sunrise cafe defiantly fulfills my need for a small local place for breakfast and lunch that has great food and service. I love the Jacobs special for breakfast, you get a little bit of everything and you can go wrong with the turkey and pastrami sandwich for lunch. -

Garden of Eden Omelette is yummy! I'd recommend this cafe to anyone that's vegetarian. They have a wide selection. I'm not vegetarian but I like to separate my meats and veggies. Also, their Veggie Benedict is nom nom nom!
Regardless, try their (I think) passion fruit or mango iced tea! -

Clean tables, nice people, good coffee. This review was for breakfast. The place is spacious and clean, inviting to all.

My DW enjoyed the French Toast, which was also a large portion with thick sliced bread. Very good flavor! -

I think I will write this review to the Bee Gee's song Stayin Alive...
"Well you can tell by the way I use my waddle
I'm a breakfast man, no time to waffle.....Ah ha Ah ha, eatin egg whites, eatin egg whites...'
Food - Love egg whites for those considering cholesterol! They offer cottage cheese for those that love lean protein without the fat. They have all sorts of normal food. You don't have to be on a diet, they just have a lot of health stuff. Go for any of the breakfasts and not the other stuff.
Service - The service is freakin awesome. I really like them all and they are all consistently top notch.
Price - Very reasonable. Never, ever will I eat at IHOP, or Denny's again. This place is just the right place at the right price.
Location - A bit busy at the 215 and Eastern near the LVAC.
Feeling - Very nice place to eat, very comfortable, outdoor dining. Have dogs? Bring them!
End Result - Come on dudes and dudettes, gotta try this place for sure. You will never go franchise breakfast food again! -

I must say, I really do love this cute place. And, of course, I love supporting a local joint, especially when they are good at what they do.
The food here is very good. I've had both breakfast items, and lunch items. Being preferential to lunch, of course I like those items better. (I'm not much of a breakfast person, so I can't speak for the eggs, or anything like that. Only waffles and bacon, and both are yum!) On my most recent visit, I had a wrap, and it was very YUM. Grilled chicken with chipotle mayo, lettuce, tomato, and cheese, on a chipotle tortilla. Good stuff.
In terms of service, I really like the people here. Each time coming in, the staff is always friendly, attentive and helpful. Drinks are refilled when needed, they answer all questions, and are generally on top of it.
If I had to pick a breakfast/lunch spot anywhere in town, this would be high on the list.Listed in: Fresh Brewed Iced Tea!

Review from Mike C.
Came here after the 5k Santa Run with my fellow runners today and got sat immediately even though It was pretty pack. It's a cutesy spot that serves breakfast, wraps, sammiches, smoothie bar, and stuff.
We all ordered their iced tea since my friends insist they have really good Tropical Iced Tea, and sure enough they were right. I'm not a big fan of iced tea, so its remarkable that i was able to take another sip or in this case a refill.
For my meal I built an egg white omelet (99cent to sub egg white) with turkey, ham, and cheddar. It cames with hash brown and with choice of bread, but i skipped the bread because i knew i was going to order the Blueberry Pancake once it popped up as i skimmed through the menu. Sadly, the Blueberry Pancake was huge disappointment since my recent discovery http://www.yelp.com/bi.... I was expecting that the berries would at least be infused in the with the pancake batter but they were just a regular pancakes made with blueberries toss in it. Weak! Oh, and my turkey in my omelet were big cube chunks of turkey similar to deli meat.
Their stripped hash browns however were amazing. I'm a sucker for any stripped hash and OSC does their well. Each strips were cooked just right with a subtle yet hint of a distinctive flavor. I mean i could be the only one but the nip was so minute that i think they cook it in a meat flavor oil or something. It was delish!
Overall I left the place and felt pretty good and not have over the top disgusting brekkie feeling. 3.5

I liked the french toast. And the tuna melt. It wasn't too greasy or mayo-y. Could've benefited from some veggies tho. The potatoes were good too. Great service. I wouldn't go out of my way to return, but if I was in the neighborhood, I'd stop in again.

I absolutely love this place, and it's somewhat close to my house. I think this place does it as well as ya can, as a breakfast place. All in all I think I've been here about 6 or 7 times in the last 4 years and they hit a home run every single time I've dined. Always had breakfast items and never lunch so my experiences are a bit one-sided.
It's always very busy on weekends during the breakfast-brunch hours and usually there is a wait to get a table. It was me and a couple buddies and ones fiance after a night of drinking a few brews. Comfort food was in need. We walked up at about 10:30 saturday and they said it would be 10-15 mins for a table, but we could sit at the bartop right away if we wanted it. We chose the bartop and immediately got waters, menus, and silverware. The waters are big which is very nice after a night of drinking and becoming dehydrated.
We all quickly scanned the menus and ordered. I got the Jacob's Slammin Platter and it was large and fantastic and was about all I could put down. The eggs (scrambled) were perfect, the country potatoes were awesome and crispy. The 1 sausage patty, 2 strips of bacon, 1 Canadian bacon slice, and the 4 mini pancakes were all perfectly cooked for me as well. It also came with 4 half slices of toast, two were a little bitty bit burned for me, but I was full anyway so I just nibbled on the toast at the end of the meal.
Everybody in my party was extremely pleased with the food, service and speed, price, and location. We all crashed at my buddies house which is near GVR so it was just 3 or so miles down the road. We all went back to the house happy and fat, and didn't take a hug chunk out of our wallets. You can see on the yelp business page for OSC snap-shots of the menu, prices are all in the $6-10 dollar range for most meals, and there's plenty of food in each of the ones I've had. -

First time at Original Sunrise Cafe last week. I went with my husband and our friend who was in from out of town.
We were greeted and sat right away. Our server offered us drinks and gave us time to go over the menu. He was very nice and attentive throughout our dining experience.
Since we were here for breakfast, I didn't spend too much time looking at the menu other than for breakfast foods. I did take a sneak peek at their sandwiches though, and they sound good. I would go back to try lunch.
I'm a huge fan of pancakes, so I decided to get blueberry pancakes. They were good, but all the blueberriers were right in the center of the pancakes [in the batter, of course]. Not what I expected nor cared for. I'd prefer to have them spread out evenly. However, they were still appetizing.
Good food at a decent price so I would go back. -

Recently moved to the area and my wife and I wanted to try a good brunch place nearby. This place seemed like a must try based on Yelp ratings and reviews. Place had a great family friendly atmosphere. We were seated right away but it did take a while for the food to be served.
We love a good eggs benedict and they have several varieties. We got the plain one just to get a feel of what the food is like... without modifications. Nicely poached eggs, Canadian bacon, served on a bagel, with good hollandaise sauce. Overall slightly above average.
The star of the meal was the banana pancake infused with banana, topped with fresh banana slices and generously smothered with walnuts. Perfect balance was achieved by adding syrup and the dulce de leche butter, which was unique and just delicious!
The meal for two, with fresh OJ and coffee, cost approximately $25. We will definitely be back to try their offerings. -

Back for another splendid Sunday brunch review is Mike P and Ashley D!!!! We embarked for an adventure at the Original Sunrise Cafe as we were both starving and unable to use our http://restaurant.com certificate at Hash house on Sundays :(.... boo. Anyway to the review:
The Original Sunrise Cafe was packed! However, with good luck on our side we were seated in about five minutes. The cafe had a nice vibe and was filled with people. Fresh coffee was....well....Vegas cafe coffee; nuff said. After a few glances around the menu we both noted how they covered several breakfast categories but only offered a small selection for each.
We both decided on omelets and OSC offers egg white versions of every omelet. I have to say that my omelet the Eggzilla (Egg whites, spinach, roasted peppers and salsa topped with sunrise garlic sauce and jack cheese) was pretty good. Although, Ashley D's omelet was nothing to write home about; sadly. Overall, for $8.99 they come with a bagel/toast on the side making it a decent deal. I just think for the amount of breakfast/brunch locations you can do a little better. -

Some places simply get the job done, and there's not much more to say. Yes, the Sunrise may be a candidate for a one-sentence review, but I will elaborate a little. I have dined here twice. The first time was under serious time constraints, and all I had was a turkey wrap. All I can say is that it was indeed a turkey wrap.
The second time I had a bit more time to peruse the menu and make an informed decision. What surprises me is that it is the type of place where you expect to order whole grain pancakes, but there is a small problem, they don't have whole-wheat pancakes. This is not a darling, hippie, organic, super creative, knockin' my socks off café where you can get a mixed green salad with your sundried tomato pesto egg white omelet and glass of carrot ginger juice. They serve breakfast, sandwiches, wraps and salads, and it is all simply getting the job done for me.
On the repeat visit, I went with the Veggie Benedict with the Hollandaise on the side on top of an everything bagel with a side of potatoes. The veggies included sliced tomatoes, spinach and mushrooms. The Benedict sans sauce definitely tasted good for you. The bagel could have used a little more everything, but it was soft and easy to eat. The potatoes were tasty--definitely not the best for you, as I am pretty sure the tastiness was a result of butter. I would eat it again if I were in the area and needed a breakfasty bite, but I would not drive there just to eat it.
There was no wait on a Sunday morning at 11am. The service was great. And, note to dog peeps: They have a dog friendly patio.Listed in: Vegetarian Las Vegas, Breakfast Time, Patio Eating

The boyfriend and I decided to visit here after trying to decide where to eat for a late breakfast, early lunch. I've heard of Sunrise Cafe from a few people and we thought we'd pay them a visit.
It was quite busy and people were waiting for tables outside. We wanted take-out so went straight to the cashier to order our food. I got the Garden of Eden omelette. It was an egg white omelette with mushrooms, black olives, red and green bellpeppers, and had avocado, alfalfa sprouts and pepper jack cheese to top it off. I thought it was very delicious. Never had black olives in an omelette before and it was good! I'm pretty olive crazy.. so I'd eat it with anything to be honest. It also came with potatoes, and wheat toast. My boyfriend got some roast beef dip sandwich with coleslaw. He initially said it looked small, which it did, but was actually pretty packed with meat. I didn't try it but it didn't look that great.
Workers were friendly. The lady asked if we wanted water while we waited. We didn't really wait too long. Less than 10 mins and we were on our way.
It sucks that breakfast is soooo expensive when you eat out. Sunrise Cafe & The Griddle are all like $9 for breakfast.. I sometimes don't even eat lunch for that price. OH well. Overall, the food and service is good. I will definitely return, but probably won't be returning back too often. I'll come back next time I have family or friends in and looking for a good place to eat some grub in the early AM.
