What can you offer guests celebrating a birthday or other special occasion?
Sunset Grill is the perfect place to celebrate! If someone in your party is celebrating a birthday, anniversary or special occasion, let your server know and the special guest will be presented with a complimentary Dessert Pancake.
Why are you called Sunset Grill if you are not open in the evenings?
Our California style concept was inspired by the lyrics from the Don Henley hit song “Sunset Grill,” which reached top 10 of the Billboard Charts in 1985, the year Sunset Grill opened its doors. We are a niche restaurant that specializes in breakfast and brunch offerings; our shorter hours mean that we are committed to serving our guests the best fresh-made breakfast in town.
Why do you use electronic devices to take orders?
Our servers use iPads and/or iPods to input orders into our system, which makes the process more efficient and speeds up service.
Do you offer group discounts or specials for seniors?
Participating locations offer early bird breakfast specials from $4.99* Monday to Friday before 9 AM.
(*No meat. With meat starting at $7.99. This offer is not available for delivery or on holidays and does not include tax. Price may vary at select locations.)
Why does your menu state that you do not allow substitutions?
Most of our menu items are only served one way. Our “No Substitutions” policy allows us to focus on serving guests the freshest food in the fastest way possible. Our formula for success has helped our kitchens run efficiently since 1985. If you would like to order something different to what is listed on our menu, your server can help build your order using our Side Order menu.
I love Sunset Grill coffee. Where can I purchase it?
At Sunset Grill, guests enjoy free refills of our Signature Blend coffee. Our freshly ground premium coffee is a medium roast private blend of the finest South American, Central American and Kenyan Arabica beans grown at high altitudes. It has a clean taste and is of superb quality. Our Signature Blend 1kg bags of whole coffee beans can be purchased in our restaurants for $24.99 and our ground coffee tin for $14.99.
How do you cook your home fries?
The home fries at Sunset Grill are prepared fresh every day. We start with whole potatoes that are cut in store; steamed or boiled and finished on the flat top grill. The potatoes are cooked in Vegetable (Soybean) Oil and gently seasoned with seasoning salt.
I have a nut allergy; can I eat at Sunset Grill?
If you have a food allergy, please inform your server and we will do our best to direct you to a safe menu choice. You should be aware that we do have portion packages of chocolate hazelnut spread, peanut butter, granola containing nuts, and bagels with sesame seeds in our restaurants. We cannot guarantee that other foods have not come into contact with nuts. For other allergy concerns, please Contact Us or visit one of our restaurants so we may discuss your options.
Is Sunset Grill gluten-free?
Sunset Grill is not a gluten-free restaurant; however, we do offer our guests the option to substitute regular toast for gluten-free bread upon request for a charge of $1. We cannot ensure that cross-contamination with other products will never occur, as we use the same equipment and surfaces. In addition to bread, hamburger buns, bagels, and English muffins, items on our menu that contain gluten include: pancakes, waffles, French toast, sausages and Hollandaise sauce. Please inform your server of your dietary restrictions and we will do our best to direct you to a safe menu choice.
How does Sunset Grill support “local”?
Almost a quarter of our total food spend supports Local-Ontario producers (i.e. dairy, proteins, and vegetables). Our potatoes are grown on Canadian soil at farms across Ontario and our Grade A small eggs are also from local Ontario farms. In addition to this, our turkey bacon comes from Ontario’s Hayter’s Farm: free roam and farmed responsibly.
Our sausages are 100% Canadian pork and manufactured in Canada. Our ground beef and chicken are also from Canadian farms, supporting our local economy and farmers.
Our granola is organic, whole-grain, and made in Quebec. It contains a high source of fiber and iron, 0 trans-fat, sodium or cholesterol.
