What our guests are saying
The garlic ginger tofu was some of the best marinated tofu I’ve ever had as a vegetarian myself ! Huevos rancheros was delicious! French toast was great as well! Definitely would come back Great customer service

The food is oh so good. Couldn’t believe that we are eating tofu. Served fresh and hot, plenty of vegetarian and vegan options to choose from. Would 100% recommend. Service is super nice. Staff is friendly and attentive.

Sunlight Café is a Roosevelt institution. I've been coming here since before I could read and their incomparable sesame crunch waffles have set the standard for what I look for in a waffle anywhere else. Homey, hearty, and delicious, Sunlight is probably my favorite brunch spot in the city.
