Sunshine Co.

This is a solid spot for cocktails and appetizers. A little on the pricier side for what it is, but everything we’ve ordered here on the few times we’ve been has been delicious. We’re big fans of the pâté and the fritters. Service was quite good, and it was definitely not busy on a Tuesday night, so no wait. Apparently it’s an awesome brunch spot, TBD on that one. I’d say this is nearer to a 4.5, but since we’ve been here on repeat occasions and they’re consistent they deserve a little bit of a bump.

We were trying to go to a different brunch spot down the street, but they had a 45 minute wait. We stumbled upon this little piece of sunshine and couldn't have been happier. No wait, great outdoor seating, and the food was incredible plus reasonably priced. The biscuits and gravy were 🔥 try them out

5* Brooklyn brunch is a high watermark. Here, to succeed you have to get the mix of tradition, expectation and originality just right. Getting my 5* here is like Usain bolt winning the 100m dash, while throwing shot-put in one hand, and the discus in the other. They almost get things right here. The peak is the Brussels sprout has. Cooked just right, with flavour to burn. Subbing out the bacon for avocado is a good call. The sprouts have flavour enough to bring the avo to its best. I could whine about the cup-of-joe. But I guess I'll take NYC's predictably insipid coffee flavoured water over a new york interpretation of flat white (no, not a euphemism for an Anglo cadaver). My friend's grits and shrimp didn't quite make it. The burger was good without being great. All in all, it's a great spot for good food.

Stopped by for weekend dinner after the Lightscape show at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, luckily got in a few minutes before a big crowd showed up. Staff are very busy but friendly and efficient. Warm lively vibe, intimate but not pretentious, good for dates or dinners with family or friends either way. We ordered the pesto pasta, burger and truffle chicken pot pie. We were all pretty happy. The pesto pasta was very creamy which wasn’t expected but still ok, just a bit heavy. Pebble beach cocktail was pretty good and strong, might be better with a rum instead but that’s just me. Jealous of their brunch menu, I’ve always seen this place very busy in the summers for their outdoor dining. Will definitely try brunch next time. Solid neighborhood spot to keep on your list!
