Editorial Review for Sunset Grill – by Jonathan Flax

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.

Insider Tips

The Extras

Don't be shy about ordering bottles of wine that you may not finish. The restaurant will re-cork your unfinished bottle for you to take away.

Where to Sit

See and be seen at table 84 in the center of the covered patio by the retractable window.

Save Money

Ask about "closeout wines." The restaurant usually liquidates its overflow stock at half-price.

Know Before You Go

With advance notice, they are able to accomodate vegetarian and other special dietary requests.

Late Night Dining

The late-night menu features many selections from the main dinner menu--only at one-half or one-third the price.

Valet Parking

Complimentary valet parking is available.

i was in for dinner last tuesday with my partner & a couple of friends. it had been awhile since we had last been in because we don't go out too often & when we have we've wanted to try some of the newer fine dining establishments that nashville has recently given us (like watermark & flyte-both fabulous by the way!)but we were drawn in by the 50% off wine sale. how can you go wrong with cheap wine?! as far as the decor not much has changed (except for some new paintings on the wall by dave turner? which were nice but looked a little out of place in contrast to the drab dining room). the food however has changed quite a bit since the last time we were in. they seem to be on the same bandwagon that alot of the other independent restaurants in town that we have been to are on-the whole local/sustainable thing that seems to be sweeping the nation. when we asked our server about a few of the items & where they came from he gave us very informative answers. we started with appetizers-fried homemade pickles (which sound hokey but were really good!), local smoked trout spring rolls & a red beet hummus which was a nice twist on your normal hummus. for an entree i had the special bluefish which i haven't had since i lived up north. i was pleasantly reminded of how good the seafood was when i lived in boston & surprised to be eating it in nashville of all places! my partner had a grouper special that was served with a duck fat fried potato & cabbage hash that was to die for. our friends ordered off the menu. one had a moroccan barbecued tennessee farm raised chicken dish which was light & full of flavor-especially for a chicken dish. the other had the scallops which he enjoyed but were a little bit overdone in my opinion. the desserts hadn't changed much since we were in last but we did have a fresh local berry cobbler with creme fraiche ice cream that was quite yummy. we'll definitely be back sooner next time-especially if we can eat good food with cheap high end wines!

Pros: fresh seafood, local food
