Parking: Sometimes it can get tight depending on when you arrive but there is plenty of parking. It is mostly flat but not always wheelchair friendly and mostly on gravel and grass.Kid-friendliness: If you don't mind your kids seeing drunk people and sit inside it is just fine. Food caters to kid food choices. Plenty of space to walk around.
Beautiful setting with attentive staff and a menu that would tempt any palate, wines pretty good

We had our monthly luncheon here, and the place is fantastic. We came on a Tuesday when the customers were light. We had 4 tables with 3 waitresses, and they took great care of us. The drinks were excellent, and everyone liked their food. Beautiful place right on the water with plenty of outside options for warmer weather. Great location! You can pull your boat up, dock, and go eat and drink. Outside patio with several bars and live music on the beach. You need to visit here in the summer!Parking: Small lot and adjacent large lot to park on.Wheelchair accessibility: Entrances are ramped on the building.
Nice for a couple's night out but poor for a business event. Not professional. Some of the Food tasted as if it was old and sat around for days. Expenses added to bill which were not presented in the beginning and I do not feel it was worth it at all. The scenery was how we made it work.

I have eaten here many times and the food is always very good. The service is usually good as well. However, last night I brought a group of 18 ladies for dinner. I had made the reservation 5 days prior. When we arrived, we were told we had to eat outside because there were only 2 servers and indoors was closed. That was fine, as the weather was nice but when I made the reservation, I was told we could eat inside or outside. Our group was divided into 3 tables of 6. One server took our orders. The first two tables received their food within 20-30 minutes, but the third table did not get food until almost 90 minutes after ordering. Other tables had customers come in after us, ordered, were served and left before we got our food. The server kept telling us that our food should be up soon. The manager never came over to apologize or offer us a drink while waiting. We would have left, but were part of the group and kept hoping the next tray of food brought out would be ours. When we finally did get served, the food was very good (as it usually is). When we spoke to the manager (we assume he was the manager), he said the kitchen was overwhelmed because there were only 2 cooks and 2 servers. Mind you, this was Tuesday evening--- not the weekend. And they had notice that our party of 18 had reservations. It would have been nice if the manger had offered us coffee or dessert. One lady with us said her friends were planning on coming there as a group but will now look at different restaurants instead.
I have tried this place 3 times. First time it was 110 degrees and they only were seating outside. Second time it took 15 minutes before they acknowledged our presence to seat us and there were only 2 tables in the restaurant. Just went again and it was 7:45 we passed 2 customers that said the blonde bartender was the rudest ever. Well she was right she came over to tell us they were closed while the deck had several tables and 2 in the dining room. There will not be a forth time. They also add gratuity but don't post that anywhere. This place is now on my no go list

Pretty disappointing unfortunately. The concept is great but food is overpriced and not good. Chicken was rubbery and my friend felt sick after eating watery crab dip. My other friend’s steak was way over cooked and tough. Most of the bartenders weren’t very welcoming, odd environment. The only thing that was five stars was our server nick, he was very attentive. Probably only the time of place to get drinks, no food.

Our table ordered nachos, wings, basket of fries, & chicken Chesapeake. Everything was delicious. Including drinks. And our bartender/waiter was awesome. Beautiful atmosphere.
Arrived at 11:30 am for lunch with friends.Gravel parking lots (Bikers beware) non the less, plenty of parking.Great waterfront atmosphere. Tables and chairs on a beach like setting, a nice little outside bar near the water. Great views abound.We bellied up to the bar. Great service. Good drinks. 6 of us bought different menu items and know one complained about their dish. Price is comparison to other waterfront establishments.Good Job Sunset Cove staff.*This place fills up fast. Get there early for lunch and dinner.

Had an amazing time today at Sunset Cove! Was our first time and after reading a few reviews before going was a little worried but has zero issues with anything! Service was AMAZING! Susie was absolutely on point. Atmosphere is just unbeatable. And the food was awesome. Crab balls, coconut shrimp, seafood pasta, and a rockfish wrap, all were delicious. Was quoted a fifteen minute wait and we were seated in about ten. Band was playing...sounded great! Weather was clear and in the 80s... boats were plentiful. Bars were hoping. Sand was between my toes. What a great time! Will surely return.

2 since there was potential. We left after 20 minutes waiting to be acknowledged by a server. Our party of 4 was seated immediately but no one came to take a drink order or bring water to the table. It was about 4pm on a Saturday. There were about 12-15 tables being serviced by 4 or 5 servers but we couldn't get a glance. The environment was typical for a dock bar and other people's food looked and smelled great. It probably would've been a nice meal with a couple of cocktails; we may never know. The most noticable sign at the entrance reads "An 18% gratuity will be added to ALL CHECKS". This gives a certain impression of how the establishment may view their clientele. Not every guest is too cheap to tip well for proper service. The sign seems a little presumptuous.I know I'll never be back.

This seems like a great place to drink and have fun on the water. It’s loud, you get country or classic rock. We’re we’re just there for a few drinks on the way home and had a nice time. Similar to Tiki Lee’s. There was live music on a Sunday afternoon. Nice views. It was crowded and hard to get parking or a seat at the bar on a Sunday afternoon. Service at the bars was excellent, friendly and fast.

I wish that I could say that the food was great but it wasn't. There was no seasoning on anything. But the view was amazing & the service was excellent!! The drinks were delicious but they could be a little stronger.
Beautiful and relaxing.
