We were next door, after waiting 20 minutes for drinks that didn’t come and looking at a menu that was less than impressive, we came here. The food was EXCELLENT, the service was better! We had drinks, a great appetizer and two amazing entrees in about 20 minutes. Beautiful view, extensive menu, it was extremely enjoyable!

4/07/2022We arrived late, about 40 minutes before closing. They do have dining on the beach but, that part was already closed for the evening. The food was exceptionally awesome. I ordered shrimp stuffed with crab meat wrapped in bacon. The shrimp were cooked to perfection, the crab meat stuffing was so flavorful it exploded in your mouth, and the bacon wrapped around it was perfectly done and just overall gave it that exceptional flavor that savored in your mouth. The dish presented to me was so beautiful to look at and impressed me so much that I had to actually take a picture of it, which I posted. I have to say this is one of the best dinners I've ever had. That's how good it was and I would highly recommend it to anyone. The restaurant is right on the beach with a very comfortable atmosphere. It has live entertainment which is always a plus. Parking was available across the street. Staff were professional and friendly and the bathrooms were clean. This place was an overall delightful experience, I would love to go back again and again.

3/08/2021Wonderful. Rented cabanas from the restaurant. Server (Paige)kept coming by take our orders. She was prompt, efficient, friendly. The food was amazing. The raw oysters were succulent. Couldn't asked for anything better. I am very pleased and I will most definitely do it again.

Great view!! Delicious food!! Our server, Briana W. was wonderful! She made great suggestions. The off menu special-crab stuffed flounder with lobster cream sauce was incredible! The Miami Vice and Mango Creamsicle from the bar were amazing! We will be back!!!!

7/05/2021We went with a party of 9 to this restaurant and all of us cannot stop talking about how great going to this spot was. All of us had fantastic meals. Do not judge a book by its cover! Looks like a beachside burger bar, but has five star worthy delicious entrees and exceptional service. Our waitress, Brianna W, was incredible. She was so attentive, friendly, and helpful. If you are around Fort Myers, give it a go!

7/25/2021This place is great. Drinks were good and view of the Gulf was excellent. We are here 3 times over our 4 day stay in the Fort Myers area. The food was on point. Were from Chicago so you know how we feel about our food back home,we think it's the best, Sunset Beach and tropical Grill did not disappoint,it excelled,very impressed.

Definitely the best food and service I've had in a while. We had dinner there for our family reunion, so it was a big crowd. They handled it very well. The servers were very friendly and attentive. As for the food, it was amazing. It was ready only about 20 minutes of ordering, presentation was beautiful, and the taste was simply marvelous.

7/11/2021Visiting from the Gainesville area. This is the BEST food we have had in forever and we like to eat! The ceviche is absolutely wonderful. I had the special which was a ribeye and lobster ? tail. The steak was crusted and cooked to perfection. I usually don't like lobster but this tail was so sweet and melted in my mouth. For a laid-back atmosphere, great service, kick butt food and a beautiful view, I highly suggest trying this out. Even on LaborDay weekend, they rocked it.

9/07/2020A surprising find. I was looking for parking and thought it was a public lot. When we saw it was for the restaurant we're like looks touristy but what the heck. One of us had the Red Snapper and the other was Scallops. Both dishes were excellent! Drinks were also great. Prices were fair especially for having a priceless view of the Gulf at Sunset. Looking forward to returning soon.

This place shocked me. Looked like a dive but the food is the best I have had in Fort Meyers. Kiana was the greatest waitress, the dinner was fabulous. The stuffed shrimp and stuffed snapper were amazing and the coconut ice cream came in an actual coconut shell. Food presentation was like something you would see in a five star restaurant. All in all, totally amazing experience. I would recommend to anyone to visit the pier and then eat here.

8/30/2020Me and my wife started coming here late last year and have not been disappointed. We made this our date night go to spot. The margaritas are delicious and the food is amazing. They had a live band (chasing denver) last time we went and they were great singers. Nothing like having great drinks and food with a great view of the Gulf. Highly recommend.

After 5 visits on 4 different trips I have to say, this place is superb. The drinks are boozy tropical delights. The food is excellent, not simply bar food. Real restaurant quality dishes. The service is laid back beachfront solid. You'll never wait long. Enjoy the musician playing on the patio while you relax.

7/08/2020Great place, the service was awesome, and even though there was a hurricane coming the next day, they still served up some great food and awesome rum runners. We sat at the bar and the kids were able to go out and play on the beach right in front of us. It was just a great time. You won't be upset by visiting this place for drinks and food RIGHT ON THE BEACH.

9/05/2020At the last minute I planned a small destination wedding, called Sunset (we come here every time we are in town) asking if they would be able to accommodate for our small wedding party. Mark (manager) was extremely kind and worked with us in every way possible to make the menu perfect for our special day. All of the staff was extremely kind and helpful to my husband and I and all our guests. The food was phenomenal and they were extremely mindful of food allergies that were within the party. When we arrived they had our tables ready and created special menus with our names on it to add to our day. I cannot say enough of how much we love this place! We are so appreciative to Mark, Danny and all the other staff who helped make our reception so lovely! If you are ever in the Fort Myers area this definitely needs to be on your list to come to for food and drinks!

Had the Grouper Bites for an appetizer, and the Tipsy Snapper as the meal. They were both spectacular! Beach front dining with no wait on a Tuesday early evening was no hassle. You will have to pay $10 for dining, but then get that taken off your meal of you are able to park in the lot next to their building.

5/27/2021Sunset grill is one of the reasons I knew Fort Myers would be a great move for me. I’m from WI and Sunset is the only place I know that has bartenders as good as WI. I moved here 4 years ago and this is my favorite place on the beach. The staff is wonderful. Andrew is always top notch. Sometimes the live music is more funny than it is good, but when you’re carefree it’s not much to whine about. The feeling there is so comforting! Homey yet eclectic. Please go by the bar and read all the signs! The menu there is also exceptional. The stuffed mushrooms are absolutely amazing. The grouper is always just as good as the last. The steak there is always cooked to perfection. Any seafood I’ve gotten is so fresh.

8/16/2021We make this a night out every time we visit Fort Myers Beach. The location of the restaurant on the ocean just feet from the pier is perfection. Watching the sunset at dinner is never a bad thing! We love the Coconut Shrimp appetizer! Their Rum Runner is tasty drink. It seems you can't go wrong with any of their meals. This time I had the Shore 'Nuff Shrimp, and I didn't leave a bite on my plate! Shrimp stuffed with Crab dressing wrapped in bacon...mouthwatering! We were too full to eat dessert, so we got it to-go.

We are from Chicago and can't wait till we are back in January... We are counting down the days :) can't wait to get back there!!!

9/27/2020My family and I went out to lunch at Sunset Beach. Service was excellent! Our food came out rather quickly. Food was good. We had a party of 11 but they wouldn’t allow us to split the check. That would be my only complaint. Overall good experience.

The whole red snapper was amazing. The grouper bits were also really good. I had the rum runner drink and it was amazing. The customer service was fantastic as well. We all said we would go back. I can't forget the great view of the beach! I would highly recommend

8/30/2020Excellent food and atmosphere! Management has that place running great! Our waitress Megan was awesome ! Super nice and she was on it. Even tho they were super busy she still checked in every couple of min. The food was absolutely fabulous! We came back again almost a year later! 2021 Just as good or better! Chase our waiter was the man! Made everything feel so special and once again you can’t beat that spectacular view! I always say after a review if you are in the area go check them out.... well for this one if your not in the area make some plans and get on down there!

4/02/2021Our server Briana really made our experience amazing. She was attentive and her personality was a plus. We went a second time because we had such a great timeand the other server was not even half of what she gave us. Food was really great and the margarita (if swapped with Don Julio) was the cherry on top. If we returned to Ft. Meyers, we would definitely come back here for Briana!

We had a great meal, prompt service, and the food came out very fast. My son had the ribs and he said they were fabulous. I had the cranberry encrusted grouper which was outstanding over yellow rice. My wife and daughter enjoyed their scallops immensely. Great outdoor deck atmosphere on the water, and live music. Whats not to love? My only slight quibble is the food didn't come out very hot, just warm. Not a big deal though.

3/16/2022The food was good and the service was decent, especially given that the patio overlooking the beach was packed. There was a very talented duo singing and playing guitar - which was great - and they engaged the mostly-tourist crowd beautifully. We also loved the hostess at the podium on the street in front of the restaurant - she was very engaging.

2/25/2021This place was awesome!! I have been living in SW Florida now for a little over a year and my wife and I wanted to go out for a couple of drinks and a bite to eat and I did a Google search and this place showed up and we decided to go. The staff was awesome, they were reasonably priced and you can't beat overlooking the ocean and seeing the sunset!
