Poor quality for food. Prices go up but food is poor. Disappointed since it has had to changes in ownership.

Unfortunately we found out the restaurant changed owners again. We were extremely underwhelmed by the food today. I ordered a Gyro as I have been doing here for many years. It was lacking in meat, toppings and flavor. Time to find another neighborhood restaurant. read more

Sunset Grill Clearwater - Gyro - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Clearwater, Florida

To cut to the chase, Sunset Grill serves very large portions of very average tasting meals. I chose eggplant Parmesan. It came with a salad which was a generous portion of average lettuce in average dressing. The eggplant parmigiana was a large amount of spaghetti & sauce, with only a very small amount of eggplant. The eggplant was very mushy, bland, & extremely disappointing. This was mainly a large spaghetti dish. The server was very kind & personable & was working very hard. The restaurant was updated & clean. read more

We used to go there often and was very satisfied. We ate there recently and although our server was good, the food was not. The place was empty but for a few tables. I can see why. The food was tasteless. Maybe these owners should consider a new cook, and clean up the place a little. read more

Maggie is the whole show!!! We had a fantastic lunch with tasty food & the service was the best!! Turkey dinner & pork tender loin dinner was delicious!! The new owner even gave us a yummy treat as a Thank You for coming in!! We will be back & we will spread the word!!! read more

Worst service I've ever received. Tina was extremely rude and hostile. Tina was not helpful when asking about menu items since it was my very first time there. Tina seemed to be in a hurry and not happy to be there. I had to ask for a manager and left immediately. I won't be back. read more

my favorite restaurant. It's such a nice atmosphere with such an amazing staff. Great food service.... recommend this place to anyone.

Don't let the outside fool you; the interior is nicely done in farmhouse chic style & the menu has a great selection for breakfast, lunch, & dinner. A bit pricier than your average breakfast place, but for lunch & dinner I'd say prices were on par. And don't let the limited parking out front stop you; there's lots of parking in the back too! My boyfriend & I stopped in for breakfast on a Saturday around 9am and were immediately seated with plenty of other open tables too. A good number of people were already there enjoying their breakfast too; seems like the waitstaff knew a lot of the customers, so definitely gives off the vibes of "local love" & we're certainly excited to come back again to give lunch or dinner a try. Our server seemed to even know a bit of sign language; the mother-daughter duo beside us had been conversing in sign & the waitress even signed with them too a few times, which was great to see the inclusivity! Here's the rundown for breakfast, and the main reason why when we come back, it'll more so be for lunch or dinner. For food I got the Belgian waffle & loaded it up with chocolate chips, strawberries, & whipped cream, plus a side of bacon. My boyfriend got the French toast with cheesy scrambled eggs & bacon. While my meal was great in terms of flavors & portion size, his was a bit lackluster. The cheesy scrambled eggs just had a single slice of processed cheese slapped on top of the scrambled eggs; not mixed in at all and barely melted. The French toast portion size was large, but the toast was so thickly sliced that a lot of it didn't get the egg soak and seasoning down to the center, leaving it more bland. Both of us had just okay bacon; I like mine chewier, he likes his with a crisp but not charred, and they came out a bit cool but more charred. Nevertheless service was great & the lunch and dinner options look tempting, so we're willing to give it a second try & see some more of that local love between the guests and staff; that's what's hard to come by nowadays, but it's our favorite thing about eating at places like this! read more

We are locals and have been eating in the restaurant for 14 years but, unfortunately last night will be our last visit. After paying our bill, we asked if they were under new ownership. Both of our meals were barely edible. Turkey dinner and fried pork tenderloin dinner, both had gravy that tasted absolutely awful. Both meals had been ordered previously and were good but last night was not good. We understand the prices go up but please don't let the meal quality suffer. I would rather pay a dollar more for a great tasting meal than feel like I paid a lot for a bad meal. read more

The food is really good. We bought a whole pie and the price is way too high, little did we know until the bill came. It wasn't that good, won't buy one again. The place is clean and they don't give a military discount. read more

Okay I blame myself because I did not look at the restaurant before I went on here. I googled the best key lime pie as my wife had a taste for it and this showed up a number of times. The food was dry and flavorless. The meat was overcooked and no seasoning. This reminded me of the old people restaurant that I was forced to go to with my grandparents. If you are over 65 and lost your taste buds it is definitely the place for you. I asked for recommendations and was told liver and onions, burgers and gyros were popular. After the food we decided to try to famous key lime pie. It was okay at best. Once again I blame myself for this and one. read more

While experience was perfect! The hostess seated my handicapped parents right up front quickly(lifesaver). Waitress was quick efficient and kind. Our food came out quickly and perfect. Everything done to absolute perfection without having to request anything special. Food was delicious!!!! Everything else looked fabulous too. Checked out quickly but never felt like we were rushed or forgotten. We had a nice shady parking spot in back for our doggo while we ate. Car was cool each time I checked. Too hot in the front spots (ie handicapped ) but nice and cool in back. Definitely coming back when in the area. Yum (get the pie ) read more

They do their chicken pot pie quite interesting at sunset grill. It's deconstructed, or upside down whatever you wanna call it. It was good don't get me wrong but I didn't feel it was any more special than other places I've had cpp. I've never actually dined in here before but their menu looks extensive and offers a ton of different dishes for just about anyone read more

Third time here and super satisfied again. We are not local, but when we are in the area this is our "go to". Great food and plenty of it, great service, (Thank you Melissa!) and super fast kitchen! Prices are reasonable as well! read more

Great food, atmosphere and service! This mom and pop restaurant is always very clean. I only had one bad experience and that was when we went for breakfast on a Sunday. My son's steak was overcooked and the server was not very nice about it. She acted like it was my son's fault that it was overcooked, and then told us they were out of steaks. It can be a little chaotic on the weekends for breakfast, but during the week it's a great place for lunch or dinner. read more

Great breakfast with a vey friendly staff seems to be family of the owners. Really good breakfast from a big menu to chose from with large portions. Very reasonable priced a must if you are in the Clearwater area looking for a great service and food experience. read more

Needed to find a place to take my in-laws to get them out of the house. We decided on this place since it's been here forever and we haven't been in awhile. Huge portions but not cheap as far as prices go but good bang for your buck. I got the chicken pot pie. Yummy. My husband got the Ruben. He liked it but I thought corn beef a little dry. Pop got liver and onions. He loved it. Mom got open Tuesday sandwich. Same gravy as chicken pot pie so tasted a little weird. Overall a good diner experience and plenty of leftovers. read more

Unfortunately, I am disappointed with my last two visits. I ordered the two egg breakfast with hashbrowns. On the first visit, the hashbrowns were not cooked completely. So, on my second visit, I ordered them extra crispy. I was very disappointed in what was delivered to the table. I go out to breakfast because I can never make crispy hashbrowns at home. I have been enjoying Sunset Grill for many years. But now I need to find another breakfast spot. read more

Not fancy by any means. But the food and service were great. Parking in front can be a challenge. But it's do-able. We will be back to try other things on the menu. Portion sizes were perfect. Service was on par. Many locals appear to enjoy this neighborhood hangout. read more

I offer this in hopes SG will make corrections. Food was a great disappointment. I had French toast. Bread was probably good, but it wasn't soaked in egg before cooking. As a result, tasteless, served with water-thin syrup. My husband ordered a gyro. Dry and uninteresting. We took home some bread pudding. No flavor. I had to apply cinnamon to make it edible. We won't be back. Used to be really good. read more

Food is delicious! We loved the servers and service. The diner is tastefully decorated and I love the theme. I would recommend others this diner for an enjoyable breakfast!!!!!! read more

I ate at the Sunset Grill in Clearwater today I ordered Lasagna today and it came out cold then when they brought it out again it was cold again the Waitress and manager never apologized and the manager was rude read more

My family and I were so hungry and decided to check this place out. Sadly, the food was not as good as it looked online. The kids chicken tenders were rock hard. You couldn't bite through them, yet alone break them apart with your hands. The gyros were so disappointing. The lamb meat was charred. The service was good, but as for food I0/10 I would not recommend. read more

Was disappointed again with the food and service. my dinner was to have two sides. The plate looked bare and when I counted the French fries there were 15 fries, barely enough for a kids meal. The Cole slaw was excellent but was gone in 2 bites as the serving was so small. Patty melt was good. friend had the liver and onions which was good. Did not give us bread at the table which we expected from previous trips there. Server was never anywhere to find although pleasant was also absent. Not sure if I'll go back as this is the second time I have been disappointed. read more

Sunset Grill Clearwater - Carrot cake. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Clearwater, Florida

This dinner with home town attitude is near the bridge club where I play. The food is sooo good and the portions are large. Be sure to check out the daily specials- they are regular size portions that include soup or salad. The bread basket they bring to the table is tasty. My fav dishes here are liver & onions (I love this dish) and also their Fried chicken. If you don't have room for dessert get a piece of pie to take home or two:) Note: parking in their lot can be tight during busy times. You may have to wait for a table. It's is totally worth it. They have booths and table- they can accommodate large groups but call ahead so they can set up tables together. read more

A family owned restaurant that has a cozy atmosphere and great food. Everyone is friendly.

Food was great and so was staff! Will absolutely come back. Only thing is wish they sold whole pies lol read more

Food is good, but you come for the pies! Peanut butter and pecan are by far the most flavorful and moist. Service is alright. You either get a great, friendly server or a lackadaisical and straight up rude one. Would I recommend here? Yes. Would I highly recommend this place? No. read more

Sunset Grill Clearwater - Pecan Pie - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Clearwater, Florida

I wish I had the photo of the chicken pot pie but it's essentially the filling of one and a pastry drenched in that filling so it loses it's pretty soggy unless you eat it right away. Personally this is not the chicken most of us are accustomed too so if your expecting that you will be disappointed. The filling itself was pretty good but I wish this could've been more traditionally. read more

Honest review, it was terrible quality. It took over an hour for our food to come. We thought about leaving after the appetizer and should've. We ordered potato skins as an appetizer which were good. We had 4 people and all ordered different plates for dinner, the French dip was "road kill" you could not bite into it and didn't have flavor it was simply a hockey puck. Asked for the grouper sandwich which was on the menu and they don't have grouper anymore and said it was cod plus she said they don't have a good supplier for fish. Waitress said the grouper sandwich "wasn't that good anyways" none of the food was. The Cod was dry and rough. Next order was shrimp and grits, it was mush with unseasoned shrimp and bacon... not sure why bacon was on grits. The house salad was about 99% ice burg lettuce with 1 tomato and 1 cucumber this is no joke. The only thing that was ok was the fried shrimp. It's no hate to the restaurant but it simply wasn't a good restaurant in my opinion but you may try it for yourself. I don't think we were in the wrong on this one. We aren't stingy people but 20% of the food was eaten. Waitress refilled our waters, while filling it said she thought the ice looked "strange" and continued pouring it Read another review and our waitress didn't do anything or apology we know it wasn't her fault. There didn't seem to be any remorse about our feelings for our meal. No one had eaten their food on the table and the waitress didn't say anything. When we told the waitress as she brought the check about the French did. She said "yea I did think it didn't look right when I brought it out" after the fact, I thought that was rude. read more

Went here for lunch today with family & it was wonderful as always. The service is top notch & there is such a variety to the menu that there is something for everyone. We were tempted by the desserts but were, sadly, too full. Be sure to make this a stop on your next trip into town! read more

Sunset Grill is my dad's favorite restaurant. Not just in Florida, but his favorite restaurant! Great breakfast. Great lunch and dinner. Great pie. Great food. He passed away a few weeks ago and can't go anymore. That's sad. I just went for probably my last time. The food was just as good. Just as hot. And just as affordable. It may be my favorite restaurant now too. He would give a 10 out of 10. I'll give it two thumbs up. Go enjoy some great food and tell 'em Bob sent you. read more

I finally made it here for breakfast today with my husband and regret not coming sooner. The staff and hostess were so friendly. I really enjoyed the beach like atmosphere as well as the display of delicious pies to my left as you enter. The chocolate chip pancakes were sweet and delectable just like I hoped and big! Devoured! My husband and I shared a bit of potato pancake hash and grits. Delicious and thank you for the bottomless fresh cups of coffee. We took two pieces of pie to go I'm sure they are incredible. Nice talking to Zukie the pie baker who wins prizes and Dave a runner like me :-) Be back soon read more

Sunset Grill Clearwater - Chocolate chip pancakes and potato pancake. Scrambled eggs grits and hash in the background all very good - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Clearwater, Florida

Good food. This place is a seniors haven. Food is moderately priced and you get a lot

Fast service. Had some lettuce gyro meat (I'm on a super strict diet) and it was great. Nice decor, clean, would go again.

Haven't eaten at SG for a while; used to go there all the time when food and prices were good. We decided tonight to get a take-out order at Friday at 5:00. I ordered Cheeseburger and order of fried mozzarella sticks and hubby ordered cod sandwich. First, background noise was so loud the hostess could not hear me and had to ask me several times to repeat my order. Second, she spent crazy amount time arguing when I told her I didn't want any sides...just the sandwiches..."I have to charge you the same prices so you might as well get them: soup, salad, fries." No, I really don't want them..."But you should get them - you have to pay for them." Finally said sure okay, whatever. 2 meals were $40.00. The order: cheeseburger had no cheese. Fries were cold and there was enough for 6 orders between the two meals (5 good fries would have been better) ; hubby loves clam chowder (one of the sides we had to order and didn't want) but he took one bite and said "worse I've ever eaten-tastes like wall paper paste" and tossed it. Very very disappointed. Not sure what changed but...wow, did it change. Sadly, I can no longer recommend this restaurant to family and friends. read more

I have always enjoyed eating at Sunset Grill in Clearwater until my most recent experience on a Saturday evening a couple of weeks ago. My husband and I had gone in for a nice dinner, and I decided on the Blackened Chicken dinner entrée (Not the chicken sandwich). Which, mind you, is different? It is a butterfly breast, not a flattened chicken breast on a bun. However, I ordered the entrée, delivered as a chicken sandwich. I had the waitress return the sandwich to the kitchen. The cook/Mgr that was cooking that evening promptly returned the plate to me, still as a sandwich, slid it across the table in irritation, and said it's the same chicken, as I proceeded to tell him I didn't order a sandwich. He turned and walked away, not taking my plate to correct the issue. I took the thin chicken breast off the bread and removed all the lettuce and tomatoes to be put on another plate. Upon our leaving, I did happen to see a waitress who usually always waits on us, and I had a pleasant visit with her; when she had asked about our meal, I explained what had happened, and she was genuinely apologetic and would let the owner know of the incident, as that is unacceptable behavior. While I understand that the cook/manager may have been having a challenging evening or dealing with other issues, I was disappointed by his response. It is never acceptable to slide a plate across the table and walk away while a customer is in mid-conversation without addressing the issue, regardless of the circumstances. read more
