    This is an absolute must go when I am back home. Sun Garden offers such a variety of classic brunch options that your entire table is guaranteed to find something they like.

    The earlier you come, the less likely you'll have to scour for parking or wait to be seated. I have been lucky that I've never really had a major issue with either when I go.

    My personal fave is the equinox which lets me get a pancake with sausage, eggs and fruit. They are so accommodating here; they let me swap my fruit for cheese grits and my buttermilk pancake to the sweet potato pancake. BTW for those who haven't tried the sweet potato pancake, it's almost like gingerbread in texture and has a taste of nutmeg/cinnamon.  Huge fan.

    Most importantly, the coffee is good here. I cannot stand watered down coffee. I am grateful that Sun Garden offers fresh, bold coffee!

    To start off:
    The location is conveniently near the beach. The service was good.

    Food wise, I was a bit underwhelmed. I got an Eggs Benedict (unfortunately I don't remember the name). It tasted alright, albeit a bit bland. I had to add a lot of hot sauce to add flavor. The asparagus inside was a bit tough to chew. The spinach overwhelmed the hollandaise sauce.

    This is a great place for breakfast. We started with splitting a sticky bun.  Excellent, comes with a giant scoop of frosting on top. For breakfast, had the Cajun Benedict. Comes with blacken mahi mahi, shrimp, craw dads all smothered in hollandaise sauce. My side was the SG potatoes, which is thinly shaved potatoes which a cream sauce and seasoned just right. We sat outside in the garden area, very nice.

    Service was prompt and attentive. Overall great meal and experience. The only negative at the begin, was that being outside we had about 5 black flies buzzing around us and our glasses as we were drinking our mimosa's. This wasn't good at all. However, after about 5 mins they just disappeared. Not sure what happened to them, but glad they left.

    Definitely would go back again.

    This might have been the best breakfast I've ever had. Definitely the best Eggs Benny I've ever had. Everything we had was amazing. I almost went round two with everything we ordered again!! Absolutely blown away.  Hats off!!!

    I came here for brunch.  We sat outside in a lovely enclosed space with many plants.  The seating outside was not overly comfortable.  It was crappy patio furniture with no back support.  I loved my nutella pancakes.  They were fantastic and it was the perfect amount of food.  They had plenty of healthy options and its located right by the beach.
