I really really like this place. Heard it's been bought by new owners. Please don't change it much, if at all. Delicious menu options like Lobster grilled cheeses and Lobster ravioli, good drinks, live music, and a beautiful view (come for the sunset!) make this a great location and a staple for me every to visit every summer. Thanks Sunset Ribs team.
Great views- last season before new ownership!! I will update accordingly!
I had fresh Blue Point Oysters on the half shell and a good bowl of Lobster Bisque. Both were very good. The bartender was very pleasant and attentive. The view is spectacular.
Thought wow what a great place!! Totally enjoying our vacation and we stumble across this cool ? ...had a few drinks and decided we wanted a snack so I went to the bar to order onion rings and the bar tender said ...oh you have to order from your waitress I spoke who's our waitress we are sitting on the bench by the wall?his reply "I don't know!!!??? Hahaha me neither its our first time here...ok well thanks for your help I guess I'll look for someone around to order from!!!! Wow really your standing around and you can't help someone...oh wait a customer ? find your own waitress....thanks (Tony) for the warm welcome to CT
Don't go here for the ribs. The baby backs were tough tough and chewy. I'm guessing they're cooked too quick or sit around for days. The sauce was nothing special and needed to be scraped off. The special nachos were not. They had very little cheese and not worth the cost. The service was fine. Again, don't go here for the food.
Nice location, but the food isn't great. Steamed mussels were dry and tough, nachos were dry with very little cheese and anything else, and the ribs seemed reheated and had bottled sauce. The steak sandwich was good though.
Basic bar type food. Medium rare burger was more overdone than medium.Tables weren't building could use a lil cleaning. Service was ok nothing great. Sitting outside had decent views of the river. Decent place for a quick bite and a beer.
Food was good but dead flys on counters but probably due to always Having windows and doors always open
Service was pretty poor. Didn’t get asked one time if I needed anything. Had to over and over ask for drinks on seemed liked a slow day. One bartender was okay that knew people I was with. First bartender didn’t seem to care at all about ensuring we needed anything. Owner must be losing crazy money because I would have drank more had I had the opportunity to get more. Food was sub par. My sweet potatoes fries came out soggy and cold. Their chicken tenders were smaller than any order I’ve received in my life. Seemed to be in line with a kids order. Couldn’t be bothered to send order as the service was already inhospitable and they didn’t even come over to ask if everything was okay. Decided to just never give them business again. One of my most annoying restaurant experiences ever. Wouldn’t go back even with free vouchers. Only reason I’m not rating 1 is the staff wasn’t rude and was friendly when I did have to ask them for stuff over and over rather than being asked if I’m content. Owner should 100% look into what actual customer service looks like. Coming from someone who was in the service industry. Really bad.
The location is perfect for enjoying summer seafood in the afternoon (around 4pm in the weekend). Despite the menu is very generic, the service and atmosphere there is very amusing! Good experience over all!

Food is average on a good day. I wouldn’t go there to eat, it doesn’t give off the cleanest vibe . Drinks and views are great any day.
Always a good time here....good live music great bar staff and awesome crowd
Great food and atmosphere. Live band on the weekends is always great. The raw bar always got good selection of oysters and clams.
Had a great time there. Usually go there out of convenience but I perceive a change for the better. Good band, good food and great service.
Came in for lunch with a friend of mine on July 4th. Been several times, always had good service. This time someone dropped the ball. Our waitress had no idea what she was doing, interrupted us maybe 5 or 6 times, had very little knowledge of the menu as she read back my order to me she said you want the chipotle rub thing. My wings came out cold. And the fact that when we were ready to cash out we couldn’t split the bill half and half. We asked her why and she said because the servers were making to many mistakes doing math and too many refunds had to be issued. I’m sorry but what?! Then when I asked for the manager she didn’t have much of an explanation other than “they couldn’t do it” What awful service! And I don’t know another restaurant that can’t split the check and for that reason I probably won’t come back.
