Theyâve got the market cornered as it is the only beach/pool side bar around. But, itâs a great little place. We walked down from another condo twice to have drinks. Kevin and Chris (all/any of them) are great bartenders and make a good drink. Lots of personality, and they were great with the kids as well. Yes, itâs on the pricey side, but we only stopped here for a change from what we were mixing for ourselves. Stop by and have a drink.

This is one of our favorite places on Sanibel. The decor gives it an island feel. The food is delicious. We had mahi, shrimp, and chicken, and everyone was pleased. Their homemade potato chips and fruit complete the meal. The flower is a nice touch. The service is exceptional for as busy as they are.

Took a visiting friend for a âbig birthdayâ...we knew it would be good as it always is! The Spinach & Portabella Salad was a hit all round! Two of us had the Macadamia Grouper which was delicious and my friend declared the Lamb Shank as excellent. Best food on the island by far!

We wanted to grab a meal before heading to the beach and this was a lovely little diner-like spot. They were super kind and the food came out very fast. I didn't love the coffee but everything else was delicious!

We holiday on Sanibel every October and have been since 1994.We've passed Sunset Grill many times but never visited. Seeing good reviews on TA and Sanibel Resturants Facebook we thought we'd give it a try. We were not disappointed. We arrived just before 6.30pm and were able to watch the sunset through the trees. Carlos was our waiter and was extremely helpful in recommending food.We ordered shrimp cocktail and the. strawberry gazpatcho followed by the Grouper with Pineapple Salsa and Salmon. We shared a Mexican dessert of banana deep fried in pastry. With beer,water and service our bill was $120.Yes more expensive than most restaurants but good to enjoy some well cooked sophisticated food.Incidentally the restaurant fills up immediately after Sunset.

Jersey's own Mother Budd would be proud knowing that her famous fried chicken lives on. The Pecking Order's signature marinade and batter bring out the unique flavors in every piece of chicken we cook. Starting with Grade A Prime chicken, we treat our foo

Reviewed By Ed H
Three of us visited for the first time and despite the very friendly staff the food was just ok. Beware they serve beer and wine so anything like a margarita is made with âwine-based liquor â; whatever that is. Clam bisque was good as was the peel âm and eatâm shrimp. Clam âcakesâ are like hush puppies but ours were not done inside. Great onion rings.

Hereâs our view having eaten here last week. Slightly old fashioned ambience / setting with an average age of diners of 70yrs +. Excellent service (they have been trained well and not too intrusive).Good choice of wines kept well. Quality ingredients and cooked perfectly. Piano player was OK - seemed quite loud when we first arrived but as time went on the music blended into the harmonious atmosphere.

Had the bouillabaisse (spelling sucks) which was succulent and tasty like in southern France but with local ingredients. The olive tapenade that they offer you with warm bread delightful and not overpowering...perfect. Wine selection great. Sunset!!!!! Maybe crowded and compact but that makes people mingle amongst other tables. Great job!!!
