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

SO many great options to choose from. You can get just about anything to eat from here in any category possible. Also- if you love pie and dessert, you have got to try theirs! They have the most amazing pies that are just to die for. read more

Great food. I ordered one of their specials a 20oz porter house ohhh my!!!! I was expecting the steak to taste like in the big commercialized steak houses, but to my surprise it's better. The steak had flavor from the rendered fat and chard grill taste. My fiancé ordered the French dip and it was not the same old thinly sliced meat. It was a little thicker and very tender. I had the homemade chicken soup as well and that was great too. The portions are big, but I was so hungry and the food tasted so good we ate it all. Hahahah... We left very full and a to go slice of apple pie to enjoy later as a snack . No matter what you order, this place is Yummers!! They have a friendly staff and the pies.. oh my! You must check out their pies. They are home made. read more

The owners have remodeled the restaurant and it is even more pleasant to dine at. Modern updates and more open feeling inside the dining area., makes your dining experience a pleasure. The food and service is still top notch. Prices are very competitive and the portions are more than adequate. It is nice to do business with people who still know how to take care of their customers and provide a pleasant dining experience no matter what time you go in. read more

This is a traditional diner with copious breakfast offerings and an extensive lunch and dinner menu. They have a selection of early bird dinner offerings including chopped steak, liver and onions, spaghetti and others. The portion sizes are enormous, quality is good, and I always leave with a take home box. Then there is the selection of desserts, highlighted by Key Lime Pie. Very casual, outstanding eatery. read more

Used to be somewhat regulars at this family owned spot. Stopped going for some reason but recently returned. The staff was friendly, the food was great, and they have quite a menu to pick from. Not sure why we stopped going but we will be returning after a long hiatus! read more

This is a local spot and it's always packed. They have great breakfast and many options for lunch. I've never tried their dinner but it all looks good. Expect it to be crowded and very very loud! I don't like how loud it is but most don't seem to mind. Overall good customer service and good food. read more

Have lived in Clearwater for more than a decade but until recently had never visited Sunset Grill. I brought the family in mid-week and the wait staff was instantly attentive. We were seated and drinks were brought out almost immediately. The server was polite, kind to our church, and diligent in her service. The inside of the Grill had been completely redone and is quite charming with whitewashed brick, shiplap walls, and modern farmhouse decor. The coffee is kinda your typically cafe coffee (nothing special but not bad) but the food is incredible! We have been back twice since that first visit and everything we have tried (the omelets, cornbeef hash, biscuits and gravy, pancakes, French toast, etc) has been piping hot and absolutely delicious. Also, the pies are amazing. If you are in or around the Clearwater area definitely check out Sunset Grill! read more

Consistently good food, and clean environment. They remodeled during the pandemic and the place is clean and fresh.... but very noisy with a lot of echoing on the hard wall surfaces of their dining area. Need some soft wall hangings to quiet all the background noise. It was really annoying at our last visit. We visit here about every 2 weeks for many years. read more

This place is horrible on every level. Went on a Sunday, had to wait, I get it. What good breakfast place isn't busy on a Sunday. That wasn't the issue. When we sat down, we were "greeted" by our server. She was extremely rude, horrible energy, and made me feel bad for even showing up. After we waited 45 minutes for our food to arrive, it came with cold toast and overcooked omelettes. My bacon never arrived and I'm not surprised, she was rushing off as I was ordering. Our waitress literally did what she wanted. She just came and filled up coffee randomly without even asking, and then dropped off a random water that appeared to be from another table. We were told our food was late because there was a large to go order. Then we were told it was the new system. Either way, we left hangry. Don't ever come here. read more

Always a great visit for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Clean dining room, consistent food and service. You can't go wrong here.

Very good food and they made the French toast Gluten- free for me as well! The atmosphere is so friendly and making sure you're well taken care of. Came here twice and for sure will be coming back. read more

I've been going there for years, the food is always delicious. The service is great.The atmosphere is very nice and comfortable.

This used to be a favorite restaurant for breakfast. However, the ownership changed and it is no longer the same place. Prices went up, quality went down, the menu was reduced removing much of the variety (especially the omelette selection) I enjoyed. One more thing: Too many Trumpers dine there. Not for me any longer. read more

Stopped in for pie and coffee. Unbelievable! I had the rhubarb pie and my wife had carrot cake both were blue ribbon. Speaking of blue ribbon, did I mention the baker is an award winning pie maker? This is worth the stop especially for the pie. read more

I've been craving a BLT. We went to Sunset Grill for lunch. I had the BLT and sweet potato fries. The bacon was crunchy, the tomato juicy red, and lettuce crisp. Perfection. The sweet potato fries were crunchy on the outside and soft in the inside. It was served with a pickle and great Cole slaw. My friend had the French dip and regular fries and said they were really good as well. It was a great lunch, topped off with the creamiest peanut butter pie in a chocolate crumb crust. I couldn't finish that and had to take it to go. It was a cute atmosphere with fun lighting and attentive staff. What more could you want? Five stars!! read more

People were friendly, I ordered the seafood platter but it did not meet my expectations - the meat were a bit overcooked and tasteless. However I odered the strawberry pie for dessert and it was DELICIOUS. The best pie I've ever had. read more

We've driven by for years and so last night we decided to give it a try. It is very close to the entrance to the Top Of The World community and rightly so, caters to those folks. We were seated in an unusual booth that is one of two between the bar and the kitchen...not exactly a prime location to get the lay of the land. However, the waitress was quite friendly and helpful despite our secluded location. They have quite an extensive menu. I ordered the beef stew over noodles(one of the daily specials) with a side salad and my partner ordered the grilled chicken breast with a baked potato and the chicken Rosalini soup. My side salad was pretty basic and the beef stew was a flavorful huge portion(even for me). The grilled chicken was very tasty, too. It had some delicious Greek seasoning on it. My only disappointment was that I did not order the chicken soup, as well. We both had one of the complimentary desserts(rice pudding) and it was very good. For a reasonable Greek diner meal, the Sunset Grill is a good place to try. On our next visit, we will order some Greek dishes...particularly the lamb shank. read more

This used to be one of my favorite places and it was always packed. It was not fancy, but it was great food and reasonably priced. They had wonderful pies and everything was huge portions and delicious. Then they remodeled and I hear it's now new owners. The prices have doubled and the portions are half what they used to be. We've tried it twice thinking we'd give it another shot and it was just mediocre and cost a lot.. like Bonefish prices and very small prices. Our waiter brought our salads with our meals, he never brought us rolls and didn't offer to refill our drinks. Gave 2 stars because it's a nice remodel, but I'll never go back. read more

I was very impressed with this restaurant. We were promptly greeted when we entered and told it would be just a few minutes. They were packed but we only waited about 5 minutes. The server was at our table quickly and got our drinks. She had a great personality and took our order quickly. Our food didn't take very long and we were glad. I had the Cobb salad with grilled chicken and it was wonderful. Very fresh and I'm a lettuce snob and not one piece was any less than fresh. There was plenty of chicken in it too. My friend had the gyro and she said it was delicious! They give you so much food that we both left with boxes. I will definitely be back. I e heard the pies are wonderful so next time I'll save room for a slice. Thanks Sunset Grill! read more

Such great diner food. Beautiful environment, great staff, fast, delicious and something special. Do check it out! Great homemade desserts too! read more

I honestly had forgotten about this place after Covid, could not believe what a great renovation they did during that time. Food and service were still excellent. I had the Sheppard's Pie and enjoyed every bite. Two people in my party had liver & onions, they said it was great and I will take their word for it. Turkey with all the fixin's was also great. Almost forgot about their famous pies, had to share my Boston Cream pie but it was awesome. read more

Not awful! Really just standard breakfast fare...nothing unique or delicious. We had a large table of food and all of it was serviceable, bland and non-offensive. Our group were the only people without silver hair in the entire (packed) place, so it's obvious why they need to make things taste kinda like cafeteria food. They are catering to the main crowd and that's fine...I'm 50 years old and I felt like a teenager again in comparison! I would probably never come back for the food or atmosphere, but the pies are awesome...the olds and the youngs (and all in between) can agree on pie! read more

Been here several time and really haven't considered a review until now. While the food is good, there was very little to be desire form this mornings breakfast. Waitress was very rude and the food was just Ok. Traditional eggs B... the English muffin is toasted, not grilled. Tasted like it wasn't done and very nappy. Waitress started by taking our order. Wife asked if the could put a certain type of olives in her omelet and she replied, "if we have it". Never checked or came back to let us know. Had to get her attention because our Bacon was cooked incorrectly and she just grabbed it and took it to the back. No sorry, nothing. She didn't once come to our table while we were there to see how everything was or how we were doing. Didn't get my side of fruit either by the way. So, while everything is usually good when we do go... today was the exception. Don't ask for Melissa... read more

We recently moved down the road from here and my son said we should try it out because the parking lot is always full and that is a good sign. So, we went for lunch and again with my husband for dinner and it was absolutely delicious, a friendly place, excellent service. We will definitely go again! btw, they keep winning awards for their key lime pie so we tried it and yes, it is excellent. read more

Changed Ownership! Didn't know that until we got up to walk out due to one of our dining companions being served a house salad that looked as it it had been scraped off another plate, brown wilted lettuce and yellow/brown butt-end of iceberg lettuce, no tomatoes, and slimy stringy onions. And that was only one of the issues. We had been going here for decades. The server, as we were leaving said (his exact words) "they sold the place, new owners, and the place has gone to sh*t." Other diners heard him say that. Wow. What a shame! read more

Food was not good was afraid of food poisoning won't go back,not the sunset grill we remember

Enjoyed the food. Nothing different than other places for breakfast. A variety of omelets to choose from.

My parents visit this place regularly, and the other previous location in Safety Harbor. The food is consistently very delicious, and competitively priced. I've had breakfast, lunch and dinner here several times and have rarely been disappointed. While I'm not fond of the Italian dishes, all the rest on their expansive menu have always been good, if not excellent. My blackened salmon salad was one of the best I've ever had. The fish was perfectly seasoned and cooked, and the greens and toppings were perfect. read more

Some of the best food I have had at a local family restaurant! The chicken souvlakis was so stuffed with chicken I could have eaten half and half for home, I didn't, ate it all. Down to the fries and coleslaw, also delightful. They also have a full bar if you want to partake of an adult beverage with your meal. Everything is homemade including their desserts, the tiramisu was the bomb. Took home some strawberry rhubarb pie. You really need to visit whether for breakfast, lunch or dinner, you will find a wonderful meal waiting for you! There is additional parking in the back so don't pass up this little treasure if the front is full. read more

This a nice family spot with a varied menu. They have a wide variety of menu items and most are quite good. They serve 3 meals a day so you can go anytime. Service is efficient and prices are reasonable. read more

Great food & service all round good experience quick service good value for your dollar

Hands down, no competition for best breakfast in Pinellas County. The trick is in the way they make their eggs. They are not greasy and have plenty of yummy ingredients. The hash browns are best either crispy or well-done. The staff is super friendly and the family that runs the place is Albanian and are great people. Zukie is one of the most highly decorated pie makers in Florida and has the most amazing homemade pies you will ever have. Must try their key lime pie which has won multiple Awards many years running. She is the national pie Champion winner! read more

We used to love this place but the food quality has gone way down recently from the good country cooking it used to be. My meatloaf was 3 small hamburger patties in a pool of brown gravy. Shame. How hard is it to make a decent meatloaf?! They don't have the great pie selection anymore either. read more
