Sunset Grill

The Sunset Grill is my family’s favorite place to go for Sunday brunch, but it’s a comfortable spot for just a sociable coffee break too. Our granddaughter loves the kids’ menu and activity sheet with crayons. The French toast is thick and custardy, not dry and shrivelled, with a pitcher of real maple syrup. Side options include fresh melon and berries, non-​greasy home fries and fresh juices. Best of all is the endless cup of coffee! Another thing we like: the staff recognize us and remember our favorite menu items. Last but not least, big windows offer a scenic view of the Credit River with swans and geese floating by, as well as the Port Credit Lighthouse.

NEW OWNERS NEW ONNERS NEW OWNERS
This being said same décor a lot of new staff.
This place has made a comeback. The vibe is better the food is better the staff attitude is better and the New Owner is Better. So if it’s been awhile for you. It’s time to come back to this smaller franchise restaurant that is making them proud. Breakfast is still to expensive but at least this place is 100% consistent with their food.
Good views of the lake and the other breakfast place across the road which is empty for a reason. This is the new truth in this place.
Way to go on the comeback. :-)

It’s not wow. It is a very basic brunch! The potato was not that good! The egg white was a little raw!

Really great service and food. The portions are very large for the price you pay. I found the house potatoes were perfectly done; not too soggy and not over cooked. Also, the eggs were extremely fresh and cooked very well. I would highly recommend this place.

2.5 stars. (Food: 2, Whole experience: 3)
Standard breakfast food, pretty big portions, convenient location: right next to canoe club.
It was a pretty packed Saturday afternoon, and we were a big group, but they seated us as quickly as they could and still had big smiles on their faces.
I got the sunset sandwich which came with home fries and a piece of carrot and cucumber– not too exciting. The sandwich itself was very greasy in the middle, but had very dry bread, and tasted very bland overall. However, the home fries were really good. Everyone else at the table seemed to really enjoy their pancakes, waffles, and omelettes.
The service was great. They were super friendly and came over to check on us pretty frequently. Most restaurants usually pre-​charge large groups a certain % for tips but this place didn’t. Will be back if I ever find myself in that area again!

Definitely a positive change with the new management in charge with more friendly and much faster service.
The staff is more courteous and the manager/​owners are right in the there pitching in with the service to make sure you’re take care of. Sunday crowds are always busy but the turn around on tables seems to be moving at a faster pace.
The overall atmosphere is lighter and the food is very consistent for breakfast/​brunch.
Location is still great and parking is sometimes a challenge but the experience will not disappoint.
Keep the coffee flowing — we will be visiting a lot more often.

Food is bad here. They are lucky that there’s no competition around. Corned beef hash and the strawberry jam taste funky. Bacon looks dehydrated

The service here is terrible, very poor.
We got seated. The restaurant was not too busy with many waitresses working; Then our waitress comes. No introduction, no hello, no greeting. Just «what do you want to drink?» we said coffee with milk and glass of water, but then she literally ran off, before we had a chance to say we were ready to order. She came back 10 min later with coffee, and brought cream instead and forgot the water. She ran off again without taking order, even though we said we were ready. She didn’t come back again for another 10 minutes. Suffice it to say we got up and left.
It is sad. If you don’t have the most basic skills of waiting on people. If you can’t even say hello to customers, then this is not the right job for you.
It’s called «waiting» on people, not cutting them short and running off.
Too bad the manager doesn’t teach the waiting staff to properly wait on clients, and if they don’t dismiss them.

Sub-​standard breakfast. You’re better off going across the street to Starbucks and getting a refrigerated breakfast sandwich.
I ordered the turkey bacon & 3 eggs. The potatoes were just ok, and the toast was SLATHERED in butter, very inedible. The turkey bacon was also very overcooked.
Service was terrible, had to ask another waitress to refill my fiancé’s coffee.
And I’m sorry but the waitresses are all very unattractive and wear ill-​fitting yoga pants. No one wants to see big wedgies walking around during Sunday brunch. BARF!

This place gives you the best bang for the buck for a breakfast meal. I actually prefer this than an overprice Cora’s.
Sunset grill offers a variety of breakfast meals on their menu. It’s nothing too complicated and a great to meet and hangout and enjoy the nice view that thy offer.
I don’t recall the name of the meal I ordered, but the meal consist of bacon, potatoes and eg with toast. It doesn’t have much, but it’s all i really need… everything was cooked just like it was a home cooked meal and seasoned well that i left the plate with no crumbs.
The reason why I would recommend this place is the price, view and location. To top it off, no line ups. It’s simple and quick, and I like my breakfast the same way.

Sunset Grill serves up standard diner brekkie, eggs etc, nothing too exciting, everything fast and greasy. The bf and I made the last minute decision to grab a quick bite before making the mad dash to the GO.
He ordered corned beef hash with poached eggs and a side of hollandaise. Bf’s biggest complaint was that the «ridiculously huge» onions were in equal proportion to the meat. Hollandaise in the very French of times, the best of times, is not my cup of tea. But bf (who could eat it happily all day) said it was dense and too buttery.
I rather liked the doneness of my over-​easy eggs, but the toast was swimming in butter and the bacon was limpid. Luckily a glass of orange juice with lots and lots of yummy pulp saved breakfast.
It’s always packed, and the proximity to the waterfront is undeniably attractive. Overall, nothing wild and crazy. Exactly what you would expect for diner standards.

Love this place! In terms of breakfast, it’s probably hands down the best place to go. The food is always delicious, the wait staff has always been attentive, and the food is NEVER greasy! Win! I’ve been to other breakfast joints and always found the food to be too greasy in general, leaving me with a bad stomach ache after.
I’m also a tea addict so free refills=major win of life, basically, which this place does :). I’ve been here a few times and would recommend it a thousand times over Cora’s, which I find overpriced and the food meh.
Port Credit is also a beautiful area so I mean… Great food and beautiful view? Why wouldn’t someone want to eat here? Next time you’re craving breakfast food, hit up Sunset Grill!

Not all that bad .
I had a western sandwich with home fries
And a coffee. Price was $ 9.00.
Coffee was good, home fries under seasoned. Western was also under seasoned. But a good size .
Price a bit high but not bad for Port Credit.
Service was a perfect 5 stars.

I meet here often, the staff is friendly and remembers your order, refills always on coffee and tea. Owners are great and staff is steady. Food (bacon and eggs) great. good location, plenty of parking. Busy on the weekend! Keep up the great work!

Pretty average breakfast — nothing mind blowing. Service is hit or miss, Eggs benny is OK but I find the hollandaise to be far too buttery. I ordered the Eggs Florentine and the spinach was not cooked enough.
In past visits I’ve found the bacon to be either over cooked or excessively fatty, no consistency.
I’ve been a few times expecting different but I consistently have felt rushed, and under attended to, with the food falling short. This isn’t the first time I’ve been let down by this chain in general so I’m beginning to understand that it’s not a one off but just how they do business.
Ah well anyone can do a good bacon and egg, well almost anyone.

There was nothing inherently wrong with the food, until I bit into an eggshell the size of a dime. They offered to remake my meal but I was off eggs after that. They didn’t charge me.
You can find better breakfast all over town. This is just meh. Wait staff bring you the wrong stuff a lot, things kept getting mixed up. I’d pass.

I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone. One of my buddies wanted to go for breakfast. I was hungry so we went.
The décor is actually fine. It’s sort of like an updated diner. Has a minor lake view, which is nice. It’s also right in the Port Credit area, which I love. That concludes all of my positive comments.
For breakfast I had a burger… what is wrong with me. As far as burgers go, it was one of the worst ever. I wish I could say it was greasy, but that’d be a lie. It was so overcooked and dried out. If I were to collect sawdust, and compact it into a burger patty shape, they’d have the same texture and flavor.
The service was also terrible. My server wasn’t attentive. She never came by to refill my water. Forgot to bring me cutlery, while bringing it for my friend. Didn’t come back for ages, had to go to the counter to ask. It was brutal, she just did not care. I was thankful to pay at the counter at a register, it was easier that way to give her no tip.
I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone, but maybe I just got unlucky.

Sunset Grill is a pretty standard breakfast/​lunch place. The pluses are that there is a ton of space & seating and plenty of it is lovely window seating which provides you a great view of the waterfront & river adjacent to the location. The waiting staff is always good, they check in often and make sure the meal is ok. Portions here are well sized, I usually get the omelette and they take up most of a large plate. Usually I will leave full. They are somewhat lacking in innovation & different flavors but they stick to what they know.

yay! great breakfast/​brunch/​lunch place!
the portions are huge and delicious!
the prices are great.
and it’s a great destination to aim for if you’re biking along the waterfront trail to the west of Toronto.

I cam to the Sunset Grill on a Wednesday morning — 9am, during the Christmas break and although the place was pretty empty when we first walked in, it filled up FAST — families, elderly, friends, all different groups.
There were probably 2 people working on the floor, and man in the open concept kitchen, but he was pretty efficient, at least our table was!
The meals were large — pancakes can be ordered in 5 (super size me!) and a smaller portion of 3. I don’t think the orange juice was fresh, so that was a downer.
I ordered the yogurt with strawberry purée, granola, and strawberries and honey. The portion was huge and everything was delicious. The prices are great, compared to a premium breakfast joint like Cora’s so I think this can be a regular… if only I lived in the area.
3.5+ super cheap, good food
