Food was very good, service was nuclear tip top. Manager went above and beyond to give us a fully loaded experience. Great breakfast place, best donuts I’ve had in all of SoCal. Sensational

We almost missed this place. The sign is small, but so glad we found it. The breakfast burrito big with a lot of meat. The doughnuts were fresh. The people very friendly.

They had the best Machaca I’ve ever had! And their donuts are delicious! I can’t wait to come back to try their chorizo breakfast burrito and their Chilaquiles. I highly suggest you stop by here to try their amazing cuisine!

Maple bar, check! Chocolate glazed old-fashioned, check! There's nothing more I could ask for from a donut shop.
Whoever the young man is with curly hair and wears a hat is….. he made my visit special. His customer service is the best in the area hands down. He is so young but his passion towards a customer at a simple donut shop is insane. I’ll come back here just because of the service he gave me and thats it. I make my own coffee at home and dont care to come out and eat a donut probably once every 3 months but because of him I wont feel bad to stop by. Great employees the owner should be proud!

This is the worst place to pick up to go orders!
At least it’s in a shopping center with an Albertsons, so when your order is supposed to be ready, you can do your weeks grocery shopping. Then after you finish shopping, your wait won’t be nearly as long!

🍩 We’ve been coming here for a few years now. We moved to Laguna Niguel 5 years ago and I can’t believe I didn’t know about this diamond in the rough before! They are a donut shop, but more than that, a gourmet coffee shop with delicious organic coffee drinks and also a “secret” food menu that will have your mouth salivating! Delicious options from burritos to specialty sandwiches, it’s not “fast food” it’s all freshly made to order with high quality ingredients.
They’re a little on the pricy side for my taste, but honestly for the value, there is no one else that does it better for less money. But beyond that, the value lies in so much more than just their menu…
This is a family owned and operated business and the owners are there most of the time. Best thing is, they treat YOU like family when you come in and you even get to know some of the regulars and it becomes a place to hang with local friends and family! I love the atmosphere there too, aside from the brown walls and the Christmas curtains that are still up! 🙈 Haha sorry George! 😂 I’d love to redecorate for ya!
What’s really sweet is they always have local artist paintings and artwork on the walls for sale, I love that they give back to their customers and support their business too!
They always do special events and host taco parties, decorate for holidays and have fun stuff for the kids, and they donate their leftover donuts to hospitals and other events and charities at the end of the day.
These guys not only provide a great atmosphere (the 🎶 tunes are always 🔥FIRE🔥!!) but they also help you network with people and places if you need references for things! Like for instance last year we needed a new car for my brother who recently moved to the country and they helped us with recommendations and connections! They are also so kind and friendly with my kids, and they always have a treat for our pup! My kids have requested to go there on their birthday for a birthday donut!
We live within walking distance and we end up landing at this spot regularly (on purpose) for a donut, or a coffee, or just a chat with a friendly face! Like I said, they feel like family at Sunny Side.
Oh yah one more thing- we have called them and asked for bulk of donuts for special events like school event or a birthday gathering and they’ve been so helpful and accommodating, and their prices for those orders are super reasonable! They even loaned us a donut wall for my son’s birthday. 🥳

Sunny side up is a great shop.
Great coffee, the donuts are fresh, light, and fluffy. They sell a monster breakfast burrito that is out of this world. The atmosphere and the staff are so nice. Grant helped me fill my box of donuts, dude had me laughing. The owner, Jorge, is a good man. I'll be back soon!

They don’t run businesses like this any more I’m blind and when I walked in was instantly greeted by the friendly staff they helped me choose what I wanted to eat and helped me find a beverage in the cooler without even asking for help this is how all business should run but sadly most do not these days .every business owner should take a lesson from these folks ! We will definitely be back for breakfast ! A pleasure to visit

Great service great eats. Love the breakfast burritos
I ordered the best Tamales for the holidays of 2024 from Sunny Side Up Cafe. I am super picky about my Masa and only like a white
“Fluffy” masa, not a heavy corn type. This style is very representative of Tlaxcala Mexico where I learned to make amazing tamales. This Cafe has made me so happy with their delicious and abundantly filled tamales. Not just masa but a beautiful ratio of filling to masa. Delicious flavor too❤️
George the owner and the rest of the staff are The Nicest People in town.
Their donuts are delicious too.
Kid-friendliness: Yes and dogs tio
Wheelchair accessibility: I personally don’t use a wc but I use a cane. Handicap Parking is right out front.

I recently visited Sunnyside Donuts, and I have to say, the experience was fantastic! The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the staff made the visit even better. Gonzo and George were especially welcoming, and I was impressed by their attention to customer satisfaction.
Although they were out of ham and cheese croissants when I arrived, Gonzo went above and beyond by heading to the back and making me fresh ones! That kind of dedication to service really stood out. The croissants were delicious, perfectly flaky, and filled with a generous amount of savory ham and cheese.
I also tried their breakfast burrito, which was amazing—loaded with fresh ingredients and perfectly seasoned. And of course, the donuts were incredible! They were light, fluffy, and packed with flavor, making it clear why this place has such a loyal following.
Overall, Sunnyside Donuts is a must-visit. With Gonzo and George running the show, you're guaranteed great food and even better service. Highly recommend it!
