Sunset Grill

Paper thin bacon — Take a pass on this place if you like bacon — NOTE: Wouldn’t let me post because my review was too short, so all I have to add is, «Paper thin bacon — Take a pass on this place if you like bacon»

Greatest way to start a morning after a long night of drinking is with a greeeeezy greeeezy breakfast! Sunset Grill is the go to locale for Sunday or Saturday brunch. The menu is fairly consistent. I’ve been here a few times and they always seem to prepare the food exactly the same way they did the last time. Consistency is key and when you’re hung over the last thing you want is a cook going rogue and deciding to put cilantro in your scrambles eggs. Just gimme the regs gawd dammit! LOL. Nice and over easy with some corned beef hash, a side of french toast with crispy bacon all smothered in good old 100% Canadian maple syrup. Mmm Mmm good! Hungry yet? I’m not because I just consumed over 2000 calories of breakfast glory. Enjoy!

I honestly don’t understand why anyone would come here. I’ve always been disappointed when I go to Sunset Grill locations, but I went today because a group of friends set up a lunch date. Last time I will ever dine at a Sunset Grill. Ever.
Food:
I’m pretty sure most of us could make better and cheaper breakfasts at home. I got sunny side up eggs with sausage, home fries and toast. The eggs and sausages tasted fine, but the sausages were so greasy I had trouble finishing them. My toast was burnt and my home fries was under cooked (tip: drowning these in ketchup doesn’t help).
Service:
Upon walking into the doors, we were told to sit wherever. It took 20 minutes to get service, and that was because we flagged the server down.
Service while we were eating was pretty much absent, I think the waitress checked up on us once for water.
Paying was the worst part. Our total bill was $ 49.66 for the four of us. I asked the cashier to split the bill and he said «Ok, that’s like $ 50, so it’ll be $ 12.50 each».
Last time I checked, that’s NOT how you split a bill. He overcharged us as a whole then incorrectly charges us individually. Can someone audit this place?
We were pretty mad because he was being such a jerk, but did it anyways to get out of there. While each of us took turns with the debit/​credit machine, he was loudly sighing and drumming on the counter with impatience. I’m sorry, are we bothering you? Because I’m pretty sure this is part of your damn job. UGH. So. Much. Frustration.
I hate this place.

Great dollar value. Ordered Eggs Florentine. Eggs were cooked to perfection, lots of spinach & the hollandaise was nice. It was fast and friendly.

Location: 3255 Rutherford Rd Unit 1 Vaughan ON L6A
Price: $$
Service: Okay
A lot of people told me to visit cause their breakfast is really yummy. I decided to go try. To be quite honest, it wasn’t anything other breakfast place wouldn’t have…
I ordered the French connection, while my mum ordered the sunset super. For the price that you pay the meal is pretty big. Their eggs are okay. I liked the french toasted a lot; it was made on a Texas bread so there was a lot of room for soft dough inside. The home fries are ehh– I’ve had better! Overall the breakfast was okay… Would I go again? Probably maybe not.
A good thing is that they had wifi!
Verdict: try

Love the breakfast at this place! Their eggs are fantastic, the home fries are grilled to perfection and have just the right amount of seasoning on it. The portions are really great and the prices are reasonable.
My favorite breakfast is the eggs, home fries and toast, it’s super delicious and they know how to cook the eggs just the right way. I’ve also had an egg white omelette with veggies and that was huge and delicious.
The only slightly negative feedback I have is that I wish they allowed substitutions and didn’t charge $ 3 extra for egg whites. The other breakfast places we go to only charge $ 1.50 so this place charges double and I wanted to take out the onions and peppers and sub for spinach but they would’ve charged me an extra $ 2.50. That was disappointing.
Otherwise the food is fantastic, the service is attentive, it’s never too loud and there is always a table. Prices are great too.

Worst breakfast
Worst service
I’d even consider going to highway 7 golden griddle over this place.
Vaughan location

The food here is just okay, the coffee is terrible, but we go often to this place for breakfast, only because choices aren’t many in the area. But after our last experience we will not go again. We just finished having breakfast and while we were talking for a few minutes, the owner of the restaurant came by and showed me where to pay, in a way that I thought we were being kicked out, so I asked the man at the cash register, «did he just ask us to leave?» He said «yes». Well there was no line up, empty tables and we weren’t drinking any more coffee. Last time we will ever go there!

Not bad food. The basics… although pricier than other places in the area.
Service is uneven… on a few occasions we’ve felt that were actually bothering the staff by coming in.
I always order egg whites and the extra charge is ridiculous !
Home fries are excellent, as is the yogurt/​granola concoction…

Good food but not very accommodating for a hockey team.

Not a bad place in the midst of the crazy.

I love breakfast– it is my all time favourite food.
I can eat it at anytime of the day. I heard this place had great Back bacon breakfast and since its my hubby’s favourite I thought I’d surprise him and take him and or son out for some Breakie.
Sunset grill reminds me of the mom n pop places you find a bit further north of vaughan. Its got that homey feel.
We went for an 11:00 am saturday brunch (because lets face it, with this much breakfast who’s got room for lunch?) and I don’t know if it was our poor waitress who was tired or overworked or what but we felt really neglected from the get-​go.
You walk in and the sign says PLEASE WAIT TO BE SEATED.
10 minutes later a waitress who has her hands full says. sit where ever you want. (ok)
Then 10 minites in we’re trying to sneak a peak at their menu on their wall until my husband spots some menus at another table so we got our own menus…(hmm)
Then we take a quick glance at the menu items.
This place is not a pricey a la Coras. but it is not cheap breakie either.
Our breakfast came to $ 25 after tax and tip.
The back bacon is really great, I will say that. Its cute quite thin and its properly cooked and you get about 4 pieces.
The rest of the breakfast is standard. 3 eggs, toast, and homefries.
Although the portion size was quite a bit smaller than what I expected it was still a lot of food. And the homefries are FRESH. at least thats how it seems. they are actual potatoes with peel and all. So it was nice to not get the standard pre-​frozen, deep-​fried homefries.
The price for a standard breakfast with either bacon or sausage is about $ 5.99
The backbacon breakie is about $ 8.99
And the steak n eggs is $ 11.99 (Which I will probably try next time)

Great service & good food. The servers were really friendly to my kids so we really enjoyed the environment.
Pancakes were the best. It was fluffy & filling. I got the French Connection which had eggs, sausages, fries & French toast. Yumm. =)

For someone that never has Breakfast prior to start of work, it is nice to have a STANDARD Breakfast during LUNCH break from time to time. The advantage of this place is that you KNOW what you will get coming to this place.
3 Eggs, Ham or Sausage, Home Fries, Toast & Jam. That is ALWAYS what I come here for and it’s great because I never have to read the menu ever. That and a cup or two of Coffee-​flavoured Coffee makes a great start to the 2^nd HALF of my day.
I’ve tried OTHER items here too but I do not associate Sunset Grill for those items where you can get those at other places. My PHILOSOPHY at Sunset (only location I’ve been) is K.I.S.S.
I guess I can always cook the same Breakfast for much less $ before I head to work but then I’m always LATE to work already and IF I ever make food in the morning I think it should be for lunch which I never bring anyways.
TIP: If you come in and see the waitress BUSY, grab your own SEAT and MENU… She’ll be right with you but then you should already know to get 3 Eggs, Ham or Sausage, Home Fries, Toast & Jam, and Coffee!
