Pop&#x27;s Sunset Grill

1 year ago

Still thinking about the casey key salad and blackened salmon days later. The blackened salmon bites were so delicious I could have eaten a hundred. The salad was one of the best salads I've ever had, it was so flavorful and refreshing.I regret not getting the blackened salmon on it. The buffalo shrimp weren't my favorite. To me they had a bit of a parmesan taste which threw me off but they were still good. Definitely coming back next time I visit. read more

What a fun, buzzing atmosphere, even though the weather is cold and the shades were pulled. The DJ was playing good dance music, the bar busy, and people looked happy. 5 stars for atmosphere. Hubby and I started with the blackened salmon bites appetizer. These were tasty especially with the dill scallion aioli. We shared the fresh catch which was grouper and had it prepared Mediterranean style. The fish was a tad overcooked, making it a little dry. The sides, coconut rice and caramelized Brussels were excellent. 4 stars for the food. Service was friendly and attentive. 5 stars for service. read more

Great service. We sat right on the edge of the dock, just inside a large window opening. The result is "totally outside near the water" and yet "totally inside the shaded roofline", best of both worlds. Food was above average but bar food. Live music plus water's edge makes it great. The only knock is simply that the facility is just a glorified group of sheds pieced together. I am not complaining so much as explaining why I can't give it five stars. Also, with parking being as hard as it is in the area, I fully appreciate how many people they have out there trying to help you get in and out of some pretty tight parking. Thank you read more

Came here with a group of 26 people. We were greeted very promptly by our server Jackson who was very calm and cool. He had a kind of surfer vibe. He proceeded to take everyone's drink orders without writing them down. To my surprise he returned and gave everyone the drink they ordered. As a fellow server, I thought to myself, "Wow, that's impressive; I wonder if he will do the same with the food orders." Lo and behold, this absolute stud did it. He took all 26 of our orders (some of them even having mods) without writing anything down and having side conversations with some of the group during it; and he returned giving each person the exact dish that they ordered. He also stayed on top of the refills and bussing like a laser. And he did all of it while remaining calm, cool, and friendly. This absolute stud deserves a raise. read more

I am a local and hosted a dinner tonight with colleagues from out of town. I choose pops because it's a place we go frequently to have a drink and apps. The service tonight was terrible. I asked for water 4 times. And never got it. Food n service was slow. And when my meal came out wrong the manager corrected it but it came out after the entire table was finished eating. I will not go back. No concessions were made and we were seated by a large fan that made the dinner less than enjoyable. Very disappointing experience.

Have been here plenty of times over the years, but this time sat at the bar after reaffirming our vows, We just wanted a couple of glasses of wine and an app to celebrate. When we asked about a dry Rose for my wife, the friendly bartender said "I'll let you try the two we have, The first had an astringent taste as if corked. The second, was what we were used to. She asked my wife if she wanted the nine once pour, and of course she said, "yes". I did hear the bartender mention the name of the wine and thought, that one is not cheap. It wasn't. She quit talking to us after that and another bartender brought the five frozen coconut shrimp with a sweet sauce that didn't jive with the menu. They were okay. 16.95 for five shrimp. The wine? 22 dollars, at the bar. read more

This was a large and loud spot with seating on the water along with plenty of tables inside too. There was an outdoor bar present as well. The parking lot was small, but additional parking was across from the marina. The service was appreciated while the menu had a number of intriguing options to pick from. We started with the shrimp ceviche ($16.50). It came with lime juice, tomato, cucumber, red onion, cilantro, garlic, jalapeno, olive oil, and avocado served with saltine crackers. This was okay. The shrimp was cooked so I would not classify this as ceviche per say. There needed to just be more seasoning present regardless. For an entrée, I had the catch of the day which was grouper on the day I attended. I opted it for to be blackened. It came with a side which I chose the vegetable of the day which was carrots. It also came with coconut rice, tropical salsa, and butter. Again, this was decent. The grouper was an appropriate size, but not seasoned completely. The parts where it was seasoned was nicely done. The carrots and rice were an ideal combination. Overall, it was an average dish. Will I go back? Possibly. read more

Honestly: I was hesitant at first. But I truly regret those thoughts because my whole party of 10 loved it! We were here on vacation and someone recommended this place. I have to say, I didn't even get a chance to take a picture of my plate which is very odd for me. I LOVED my lobster sandwich and my husband got the grouper sandwich and that was delicious as well! Everyone agreed that is was very fresh and tasty! Price was good, ambiance is nice and tropical. Indoor and outdoor seating. Lots of parking.

History

Established in 1954.

The story of Pop's Sunset Grill began in the 1950’s when Urbanek's Fish Camp first settled on the plot of land currently occupied by Pop's Tiki. Urbanek's Fish Market was a local favorite and supplied many restaurants in the Nokomis area. At some point, another restaurant was built on the adjoining land and they operated independently in a peaceful coexistence for many years. Over the years, the restaurant went through several iterations - Silver Shark, Buoy Bar, Brit's Place and Pop's Tropigrille. In 2001, the current ownership group purchased both Pop's Tropigrille and Urbanek's Fish Market and merged them to form one restaurant known as Pop's Sunset Grill, keeping the favorite menu items of both. We have focused on maintaining the Old Florida charm while updating and enhancing the property. Pop's Sunset Grill is a one-of-a-kind destination and we intend to sustain the unique character for the foreseeable future.

Meet the Manager: Stephanie B.

Stephanie has worked in restaurants for most of her life. Beginning in large, corporate restaurants where she worked her way from host to manager and eventually opening restaurants all around Florida for a quickly growing chain. Now settled down in Sarasota County as General Manager of an incredible independent restaurant that sits right on the water with live music every night, great food and drinks and an amazing 4,000 sq ft Tiki Bar.

Pop's had always been a favorite. pulling our boat up to grab lunch on the go, or grabbing a chair and watch a game, while enjoying the friendly chatter around the bar. However, on a recent Saturday evening, we were sadly disappointed to watch some of the nonsense ongoing in the Tiki Bar, we expected a wait no problem, my husband went up to the Tiki bar to buy 2 drinks, there is a ramp that also goes up to Tiki bar, there were about 6 kids, sitting up on the rail trying to move around them was tough. Yet my biggest problem of the evening was I noticed kids maybe 21? walking around drinking out of 16oz Tervis glasses, I thought maybe Pop's started a new policy you could bring your own Tervis to have your drink made in, no, they were not Pop's Tervis bought in the gift shop, these were brought in, the 5-6 kids walking around with them were actually going down to their pontoon tied off on the dock, they were making drinks, then walking up to Tiki bar taking seats, space from paying customers, they obviously had 'bartender" friends working the bar as they sat at the bar drinking in front of them. As a partner in a bar for 30 years, I know the liquor laws, this was so blatantly illegal but not one employee said a word, nor asked them to leave, and yet they walked to all three bars with personal Tervis, again they went and poured another drink on their pontoon and walked all around Pop's. If this is the new Pop's then I guess we will pass. read more

Once again Pop's does it correct, and fun the whole evening. As they take no reservations, we checked in, said 65 minutes (this is spring break time) wait, they take your phone number and call you when table is ready. So that gave us some time to drive our niece, and great niece over the bridge down to the jetty, view a great sunset. We arrive back a little early for our table, finds some bar stools to grab a cocktail, Aaron? our bartender was wonderful, he informed ever so politely that you have to be 21 to sit at the bar, so Uncle got his Pina Colada, and great niece her virgin and took a walk down to the dock to see that, rounding out their walk with a tour thru Pop's store. The place was PACKED!!! Usually by 8:00 PM you can get a table fairly easy, however again Spring Break, it is just something you deal with or you stay home. Our server was great, she was attentive, good nature, but she was hustling. Food was great as usual, edamame salad is to die for, grilled fisherman platter was excellent, ahi tuna wrap with wasabi cole slaw A+, even little great niece who is almost 5, loved all he plate with tastes of all the food. I highly recommend the Ahi tuna wrap, conch fritters, best in Florida, lobster and shrimp bisque, grilled fisherman's platter. Everyone complimented on their meals, views of the boats cruising the inter coastal. read more

Wow. I e-mailed Pops 3 days before a Birthday occasion and requested to sit outside at a fire pit and asked someone please call me so I can secure arrangements. They ask for this information on their website where you're supposedly able to get someone to call you back. They never got back to me. When I asked to speak to managers about not getting back to me they acted like 1) I never used e-mail before, 2) they don't check it, 3) it was not sent to the right person, etc.....essentially blaming me for their lack of customer service. I show up there with my party and there's an hour and a half wait. We go to the bar and wait....only to be eventually shuffled to the back of the restaurant near the kitchen doors after the long wait and outside seating request. Someone in my party found a big piece of crumpled paper in their Mediterranean salad....Oh! That would entitle us to free dessert!! (Roll Eyes) I asked to speak to a manager about sitting outside and 3 of them blew me off inspite of tables outside being empty. Never again, and I'm a local. The only redeeming thing about Pops was Claire, our waitress. Food was mediocre too. read more

Came for dinner with a friend for my first time, even though I live locally. I ordered Mahi-mahi tacos and received the saddest looking tacos I have ever seen. You could see some fish in one of the two tacos, but the second one looked empty except for the lettuce and cheese (see picture). I asked the server if this was the standard amount of filling/ fish in the tacos they make. She had the kitchen correct the tacos and brought out new ones, which were normal. The new tacos were a 5/10 as far as taste of fish tacos goes, but at least they were filled. My friend had a salad and was also not impressed by the flavor, but we were very hungry so she ate it anyways. Considering how close this place is to my home and the beach, I wanted to like it. Unfortunately, I think it is one of those places where they sell you on the location and ambiance (on the water with a tiki vibe), but really screw you over on the quality of the food. Definitely NOT an experience worth repeating. read more

They would rather sit toddlers at the bar with tattooed bikers claiming the kitchen is requesting the tables outside not be seated bc they are overwhelmed by food orders while simultaneously taking food orders from tables inside and seating only senior citizens and people looking to get wasted outside ( Um. I thought they were too busy to cook... then why take food orders from inside tables but not outside tables?). After the third cockroach scampered from the deck to the bar, we left. The waitress are great. The blatant hypocrisy and insult to intelligence is laughable. Location is great, but the hostess and seating is a waste of time. Just be honest and say families with children under 21 are unwelcome. Don't lie and waste the time of families ready to spend money and wanting to feed hungry children. Most disgusting restaurant in every single way. read more

..just left there. The new Tiki thatch roof section is physically nice. I ordered a Bud Light. Gave her a $5 bill. Plastic cup. She never came back. When I caught her going by and asked her about the price she said "it actually cost $5.35. But, oh yeah, it's happy hour all day long" and gave me back $1.60. So the "happy hour price" is $3.40...for Bud Light...in a flimsy plastic cup. So, she forgot it was happy hour?? And if she did for real, wouldn't she have said I owe her $.35 more? Obviously trying to steal additional tip money from unsuspecting patrons. Plus the fact that if it wasn't happy hour, I would pay $5.35 for a plastic cup of bud light? The plate of beef Nachos was very good, but for $13, it should be. A real disappointment, I will not be back, and will share my experience with anyone who evens mentions local places to eat/drink. read more

Pop's Sunset Grill is one of those places you stumble upon and instantly love. The view is incredible - sitting right on the water, you feel like you're miles away from everything. It's the perfect spot to relax and enjoy some good food and drinks. I was pleasantly surprised by the free drink samples! Such a nice touch. The drinks themselves were strong and tasty, just how I like 'em. And the little shop inside was full of cute stuff - I ended up grabbing a few souvenirs. We ordered the seafood boil and it was massive! So much food and it was all cooked perfectly. Seriously, it was one of the best seafood boils I've had. Parking can be a bit of a hassle, but it's worth the trouble for the amazing atmosphere. Overall, Pop's Sunset Grill is a must-visit. It's got that perfect laid-back vibe and the food is delicious. I can't wait to go back! read more

We had a fantastic time at Pop's Sunset Grill for brunch/lunch. The service was top-notch, and the view, as always, was stunning. We called ahead and were quickly seated upon arrival during Easter weekend, which was a nice touch. The drinks hit the spot. Now, onto the food - it was incredible. The prime rib brunch with eggs, hash browns, and Au jus was mouthwatering, and the lamb chops with potatoes and carrots were equally delicious. Everything was cooked to perfection. Overall, Pop's Sunset Grill provided a wonderful dining experience that we'll remember for a long time. If you're looking for great food with a beautiful view, this place won't disappoint. 5 's for breakfast, brunch and lunch! read more

It's really too bad that a place with a great view of the water has such average food and service. We got the fired clam strips which were really tasteless. Being in the business I noticed all the breading "crumbs" in the bottom of my basket I knew they came right out of the freezer and into the fryer. Service was a bit slow but they were relatively busy. Just got the basic "hey folks what can I get ya?". Once the cool (not cold) beer was served and the food was down the bartender didn't acknowledge me until I signaled I was ready for the check. I could have had another beer or 2 because it was a beautiful day out but since no one asked I figured it was time to leave. read more

They have just redone the outdoor areas of Pop's and it looks great. There are fire pits to sit near surrounded by palm trees and plantings. It feels very tropical. Stick to a burger and fries if you want to have the best experience at pops. They have great burgers, but most other things are just ok. I gave it 4 stars anyway because of the vacation feel that somehow is not touristy. Lots of locals go to Pop's, it has a nice water view of the river. They refill your drink quickly and usually the service is good and it is super casual. You go there right from the beach. read more

Pop's is great for the location and the outside bar but be ready to deal with bugs. Everytime I've sat at the outside bar, it involves fending off some ants. Of course it's an outside bar and with fruit in drinks, a bug here or there is to be expected. But I have been to others in the area that do not have the same problem. The food is good and the staff is very friendly but doesn't have WOW a factor. Having live music frequently would really set this place apart in the area. read more

We asked if the fried egg that comes with the dish was sunny-side up and were told no, it would be fully cooked and the kitchen would not accommodate a sunny-side-up egg. That seemed unusually inflexible, but we said fine and ordered it as is. When the food arrived, the chicken was clearly not blackened. It was pale, with virtually no visible seasoning. Our waiter actually tried to tell us that the blackening had "fallen off in the sauce." We've had blackened chicken many times, and this simply wasn't blackened. To make matters worse, the egg that was supposed to come with the dish was missing entirely. We asked for the manager, who looked at the chicken and agreed that the blackening had washed off agreed that it did not appear to be blackened. He took it back, and the kitchen eventually sent out properly blackened chicken. Fair enough. But then the manager returned and tried to insist that the kitchen said the original chicken had been blackened and the seasoning had somehow come off in the sauce, even though he had just agreed with us that there was no seasoning on it. I've order this exact dish before, this chicken was not blackened and it could not have been more obvious. We then asked about the missing egg. After another trip to the kitchen, the manager told us we weren't getting one because the kitchen had already scrambled it. We had never asked for a scrambled egg and the menu called for a fried egg, so that made no sense. Apparently, because they had already cooked the egg incorrectly, the kitchen refused to cook another one. I've never met a more weak manager, totally terrified of the kichen. At that point my husband had had enough and sent his meal back. What surprised us most was the manager's reaction. He didn't apologize, offer another dish, or ask if my husband wanted anything else. He simply said okay and walked away. A customer came in for dinner, ended up with no dinner at all, and the manager seemed completely unconcerned about it, and was happy to lose a customer rather than cook an egg. My tacos weren't much better. They arrived cold, and the pork was extremely dry. Thankfully I had ordered a side of guacamole, because otherwise the pork would have been almost impossible to eat. Even with that, I eventually gave up. Mistakes happen in restaurants, and we understand that. What made this experience so disappointing was the kitchen's complete inflexibility and the manager's unwillingness to resolve what should have been several very simple problems. Unfortunately, instead of enjoying dinner, one of us barely ate and the other ended up with no meal at all. Will they see us again? Highly unlikely.
