"The Chifrijo is delicious and a large portion! This is my go to for a filling and satisfying meal. "
"The steak with the calentado has no flavor; it is just rough meat, but the rice was good! The tacos are just a big, long chunk of meat, not cut but hard, inside a fried tortilla, with very little flavor. I ordered to try something different, but this does not match the price and is a big disappointment. I got fooled this time."

"Great food! My favorites are the Baja Fish Tacos and the Hush Puppies. The Hush Puppies came with a honey dipping sauce - I thought it would be a weird combo but it tasted really good with it. And my kid really liked the Churros which came with yummy chocolate and dulce de leche dipping sauces. I didn't get to try the churros cuz my kid ate it all."
"One of the two sides I ordered was missing, and the mac and cheese that arrived was flavorless. I love smoked meat, but the St Louis ribs (which were tough and had very little meat on them) both smelled and tasted like a freshly used fireplace. The churros and bbq pulled beef were decent, but I won't be spending money here again."

"Tonight I ordered the Eggplant Parmigiana Sandwich and it was delicious. The portion was very big and I'm glad I brought my appetite. I was complete full after finishing this sandwich. Nice amount of Cheese as well. I also ordered a Chocolate Milk Shake, the second one this,week, because the taste is just out of this world. They make the best Milk Shakes and they are nice and thick and cold. Just what you want in a milk shake. Glad I got to enjoy this again. Just the best."
"Thr food at the Sunrise Diner is always good, and you get so much to eat. The food tastes great, it's filling, and sometimes you can finish everything and sometimes you can't, but can save it for another day. Tonight I ordered the Beef Liver with corn and mashed potatoes. It also came with soup or salad, and I ordered the onion soup. The soup was so good and packed with plenty of onions in every bite. The Beef Liver was made to the way I like it, and I ordered mine with bacon, not onions. I got so much meat, that I could not finish the meal as it was so filling. The mashed potatoes were great, and they were out of corn, I guess, because they substituted it with cauliflower. You can always get a good meal here, and I've never been disappointed. Highly recommend this diner."
