What People Are Saying About Sunset Grill

In Short – As the premier restaurant in trendy Hillsboro Village, Sunset Grill caters to a diverse clientele of Music Row executives with their celebrity clients and a hip, late-night rocker crowd. Dining areas include an indoor and outdoor patio, a main dining room with candlelight and crisp white tablecloths and a cozy bar. The lengthy wine list is a strong selling point, as is the inventive seasonal menu with an eight-ounce Kobe burger and ahi with lentils.

VERY mediocre
by NashvilleNative75
As a Nashville native, as well as someone who loves to travel and eat great food wherever I go, trust me on this one: skip the Sunset Grill. This is a dinosaur of a restaurant. The menu has not changed in 10 years, and the wine list is unimpresive and equally dated. The food itself is average, at best - and certainly not worth the price paid.
The Sunset Grill comes from a bygone era in Nashville dining, and can not compete with the many other, BETTER restaurants that are populating our fine city. The Sunset refuses to update their menu, and refuses to embrace culinary change of any sort. And perhaps more importantly, the food is uninspired, uninteresting, lackluster, and overall pretty terrible. It's kind of sad, but in the same vein, if they can't grow or move forward then they deserve the dwindling business they've been getting.
Also to note, this place is popular with two types of Nashvillians: Vanderbilt sorority & frat types who think it's posh based solely on its location, and who really don't have any discriminating culinary tastes of their own, and the geriatric Belle Meade crowd. And that's it.
Don't spend your time or money on this dying waste of good real estate.
- Pros: Location
- Cons: Dated menu, dated wine list, mediocre food

Venerable Classic Still Kicking
by bjaneg13
My boyfriend and I had dinner here last week with our parents. We had a great server - who knew the menu and offered great suggestions. We all ordered a starter plus an entree. Everyone was impressed by the starters - sonoma salad, summer salad of cucumbers and tomatoes, scallops. The main entree's were decent - lamb was tasty, pork tenderloin was yummy, vegetarian loved her stuffed pepper, etc.
All in all, I would recommend Sunset to anyone. It's not some fancy new place in town, but rather a classic that's been here for a while and will more than likely stay around for a while. While the food might not be on the cutting edge, it's good portions and tasty.
The patio is the place to be in great weather...
- Pros: Wine specials, patio, late night menu
- Cons: Patio Chairs

What a deal!
by Sunnydale
Two of us tried the Prime Grillin specials...what a deal! The steaks were cooked to perfection, and I would definitely recommend the shrimp scampi side. The wine sale is awsome--by the glass or bottle. We will definitely be back for more!
- Pros: Fantastic steaks at a steal
- Cons: No room for dessert
