“I’ve been coming here for years and if you’re looking for a friendly atmosphere for dinner or to watch your favorite team, Sal’s Place is the place to go. There is a separated dining area so you’re not just crammed by the bar. No pool table, no fights, no hassles. Food is good with a large variety of options plus specials. The staff busts their asses to make sure your needs are cared for. If you’ve never been here, give it try and I promise you it won’t be the last time you’re there.“

“I wanted to Thank Everyone at the Sunrise Diner for all the years they made my Parents feel like family whenever they went there. My Father has since passed but my Sister took my Mother there today and they gave my Mom hugs, told her they loved her and how cute she was. I was in tears when I heard this from my Sister. I am so Happy that my Mom has this place to go to to get out and feel so loved by so many. Over the years the Sunrise Diner has been a very Happy Place to go to. The service is the best we've ever had. They've treated my Family like Family. I cannot thank the People at the Sunrise Diner enough! They mean so much to my Family. And you can't beat their food!!!

It’s accessible, affordable and delicious! She is Uber knowledgeable about every aspect regarding nutrition and she guided me through different “changes” in my body. Rachel & her team guide you along your journey (be it weight loss, maintenance or just plain ol’ being healthy!). I highly recommend everything this company has to offer!!“

I have also eaten the skirt steak which was delicious. He has a very nice presentation on all dishes. They also have fresh baked breads and the waitresses are all very nice and friendly.

“Have been coming here, sporadically, for past 20+ years. Same ladies serving for quite awhile. Hit or miss service, sometimes they are too chatty and ignore tables. Food is good if you are ordering basic diner fare; omelettes or sandwiches. The owner, a kind, older gentleman, tried his best to make us feel valued.
We will return here, out of loyalty to our neighborhood diner.“
